Ox glutamate dehydrogenase. Comparison of the kinetic properties of native and proteolysed preparations.

ABSTRACT: Kinetic constants were determined for commercially available samples of ox liver glutamate dehydrogenase, which had previously been shown to have suffered limited proteolysis during preparation, with a range of substrates and effectors. These were compared with the values obtained with enzyme preparations purified in such a way as to prevent this proteolysis from occurring [McCarthy, Walker & Tipton (1980) Biochem. J. 191, 605-611]. The Km values and maximum velocities determined with different substrates revealed little difference between the two preparations although the proteolysed enzyme had lower Km values for NH4+ and glutamate when the activities were determined with NADPH and NADP+ respectively. This preparation was more sensitive to inhibition by Cl- ions but less sensitive to inhibition by high concentrations of the substrate NADH. The two preparations also differed in their sensitivities to allosteric effectors, with the proteolysed enzyme being the less sensitive to inhibition by GTP. At high concentrations of NADH, this preparation was also more sensitive to activation by ADP and ATP.

Sedimentation properties of native and proteolysed preparations of ox glutamate dehydrogenase.

Project description:The concentration-dependent aggregation behaviour of purified ox liver and brain glutamate dehydrogenase preparations was compared with that of commercially-obtained preparations of the liver enzyme, which have recently been shown to have suffered proteolytic cleavage. Although there were no significant differences in these effects, the presence of 3 mM-GTP and 3 mM-NADH had markedly different effects on the two types of preparation. In this situation, at higher protein concentrations the commercially obtained preparations existed in a higher degree of aggregation than those which had not suffered proteolysis. Studies of the effects of GTP and NADH concentrations on the sedimentation coefficients at a fixed enzyme concentration suggested these effects to be largely due to differences in the affinities of the two preparations for nucleotides.

Kinetic properties of the partially purified pyruvate dehydrogenase complex of ox brain.

Project description:The properties of a purified preparation of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex from ox brain have been compared with those of a similar preparation from ox kidney. A broad pH optimum around 7.8, similar dependence on ionic strength, and independence of the nature of the buffer anions or cations characterized preparations from both tissues. Michaelis constants for the binding of pyruvate, thiamin pyrophosphate, NAD(+) and CoA were also similar. Enzyme from both tissues was inhibited by NADH, by copper and other heavy metals, by high concentrations of tricarboxylic acid-cycle intermediates, and by preincubation with ATP. Acetyl-CoA itself did not appear to inhibit these preparations, although some commercial preparations of acetyl-CoA did contain an inhibitor. Although oxaloacetate and alpha-oxobutyrate were weak inhibitors, a number of other alpha-oxo acids including phenylpyruvate did not inhibit. The properties of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex from brain and kidney appeared similar.

Diversification of the kinetic properties of yeast NADP-glutamate-dehydrogenase isozymes proceeds independently of their evolutionary origin.

Project description:In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the ScGDH1 and ScGDH3 encoded glutamate dehydrogenases (NADP-GDHs) catalyze the synthesis of glutamate from ammonium and α-ketoglutarate (α-KG). Previous kinetic characterization showed that these enzymes displayed different allosteric properties and respectively high or low rate of α-KG utilization. Accordingly, the coordinated action of ScGdh1 and ScGdh3, regulated balanced α-KG utilization for glutamate biosynthesis under either fermentative or respiratory conditions, safeguarding energy provision. Here, we have addressed the question of whether there is a correlation between the regulation and kinetic properties of the NADP-GDH isozymes present in S. cerevisiae (ScGdh1 and ScGdh3), Kluyveromyces lactis (KlGdh1), and Lachancea kluyveri (LkGdh1) and their evolutionary history. Our results show that the kinetic properties of K. lactis and L. kluyveri single NADP-GDHs are respectively similar to either ScGDH3 or ScGDH1, which arose from the whole genome duplication event of the S. cerevisiae lineage, although, KlGDH1 and LkGDH1 originated from a GDH clade, through an ancient interspecies hybridization event that preceded the divergence between the Saccharomyces clade and the one containing the genera Kluyveromyces, Lachancea, and Eremothecium. Thus, the kinetic properties which determine the NADP-GDHs capacity to utilize α-KG and synthesize glutamate do not correlate with their evolutionary origin.

Kinetic properties of highly purified preparations of sheep liver cytoplasmic aldehyde dehydrogenase.

Project description:The kinetic properties of highly purified preparations of sheep liver cytoplasmic aldehyde dehydrogenase (preparations that had been shown to be free from contamination with the corresponding mitochondrial enzyme) were investigated with both propionaldehyde and butyraldehyde as substrates. At low aldehyde concentrations, double-reciprocal plots with aldehyde as the variable substrate are linear, and the mechanism appears to be ordered, with NAD+ as the first substrate to bind. Stopped-flow experiments following absorbance and fluorescence changes show bursts of NADH production in the pre-steady state, but the observed course of reaction depends on the pre-mixing conditions. Pre-mixing enzyme with NAD+ activates the enzyme in the pre-steady state and we suggest that the reaction mechanism may involve isomeric enzyme--NAD+ complexes. High concentrations of aldehyde in steady-state experiments produce significant activation (about 3-fold) at high concentrations of NAD+, but inhibition at low concentrations of NAD+. Such behaviour may be explained by postulating the participation of an abortive complex in product release. Stopped-flow measurements at high aldehyde concentrations indicate that the mechanism of reaction under these conditions is complex.

Purification of glutamate dehydrogenase from ox brain and liver. Evidence that commercially available preparations of the enzyme from ox liver have suffered proteolytic cleavage.

Project description:1. A rapid procedure, involving ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-cellulose and affinity chromatography on GTP-Sepharose, was used to purify glutamate dehydrogenase from ox brain and liver. 2. Preparations purified in this way differed from those of the ox liver enzyme that were obtained from commercial suppliers in their mobilities on polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulphate. This difference appears to result from the occurrence of limited proteolysis during the preparation of the latter enzyme samples. 3. N-Terminal sequence analysis showed the presence of four amino acid residues in the enzyme prepared in this study that were not present in those obtained from the commercial sources and which have not been reported in previous studies on the sequence of the ox liver enzyme. 4. A preliminary examination of the enzyme prepared in this way indicated that the Michaelis constants for the substrates are similar to those obtained from the commercial preparation, but that the response to allosteric effectors was modified.

The kinetic mechanism of ox liver glutamate dehydrogenase in the presence of the allosteric effector ADP. The oxidative deamination of L-glutamate.

Project description:In steady-state kinetic studies of ox liver glutamate dehydrogenase in 0.11 M-potassium phosphate buffer, pH7, at 25 degrees C, the concentration of ADP was varied from 0.5 to 1000 microM. Inhibition was observed except when the concentrations of both glutamate and coenzyme were high, when activation was seen. With NAD+ or NADP+ as coenzyme, 200 microM-ADP was sufficient to saturate the enzyme with respect to the major effect of this nucleotide. In the presence of 210 microM-ADP, widely varied concentrations of coenzyme give linear Lineweaver-Burk plots, in marked contrast with results obtained previously for kinetics without ADP. This has allowed evaluation for the reaction with NAD+, NADP+ and acetylpyridine-adenine dinucleotide (315 microM-ADP in the last case) of all four initial rate parameters, i.e. the phi coefficients in the equation: (Formula: see text) where A is coenzyme and B is glutamate. The relative constancy of phi B and of phi AB/phi A with the different coenzymes point to a compulsory-order mechanism with glutamate as the leading substrate. This conclusion, though unexpected, agrees well with various previous observations on the binding of oxidized coenzyme.

Kinetic studies of dogfish liver glutamate dehydrogenase.

Project description:Initial-rate studies were made of the oxidation of L-glutamate by NAD+ and NADP+ catalysed by highly purified preparations of dogfish liver glutamate dehydrogenase. With NAD+ as coenzyme the kinetics show the same features of coenzyme activation as seen with the bovine liver enzyme [Engel & Dalziel (1969) Biochem. J. 115, 621--631]. With NADP+ as coenzyme, initial rates are much slower than with NAD+, and Lineweaver--Burk plots are linear over extended ranges of substrate and coenzyme concentration. Stopped-flow studies with NADP+ as coenzyme give no evidence for the accumulation of significant concentrations of NADPH-containing complexes with the enzyme in the steady state. Protection studies against inactivation by pyridoxal 5'-phosphate indicate that NAD+ and NADP+ give the same degree of protection in the presence of sodium glutarate. The results are used to deduce information about the mechanism of glutamate oxidation by the enzyme. Initial-rate studies of the reductive amination of 2-oxoglutarate by NADH and NADPH catalysed by dogfish liver glutamate dehydrogenase showed that the kinetic features of the reaction are very similar with both coenzymes, but reactions with NADH are much faster. The data show that a number of possible mechanisms for the reaction may be discarded, including the compulsory mechanism (previously proposed for the enzyme) in which the sequence of binding is NAD(P)H, NH4+ and 2-oxoglutarate. The kinetic data suggest either a rapid-equilibrium random mechanism or the compulsory mechanism with the binding sequence NH4+, NAD(P)H, 2-oxoglutarate. However, binding studies and protection studies indicate that coenzyme and 2-oxoglutarate do bind to the free enzyme.

A peptide containing a reactive lysyl group from ox liver glutamate dehydrogenase.

Project description:1. Inhibition of ox liver glutamate dehydrogenase with N-(N'-acetyl-4[(35)S]-sulphamoylphenyl)maleimide (ASPM) is more specific at pH7.3 than at pH6.9. At pH7.3 inhibition accompanies the incorporation at 1 mole of ASPM residues into about 53000g. of protein. 2. Digestion of the modified protein with chymotrypsin and trypsin yields a unique radioactive peptide. 3. Acid hydrolysis of 1 mole of this peptide yields 1 mole of N(in)-succin-2-yl-lysine. The in-amino group of a lysyl residue is thus the site of modification of the protein. 4. The sequence containing the modified lysyl residue is: [Formula: see text] where Asx respresents either aspartic acid or asparagine.

Purification and kinetic properties of ox brain histamine N-methyltransferase.

Project description:Histamine N-methyltransferase (EC 2.1.1.8) was purified 1100-fold from ox brain. The native enzyme has an Mr of 34800 +/- 2400 as measured by gel filtration on Sephadex G-100. The enzyme is highly specific for histamine. It does not methylate noradrenaline, adrenaline, DL-3,4-dihydroxymandelic acid, 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid, 3-hydroxytyramine or imidazole-4-acetic acid. Unlike the enzyme from rat and mouse brain, ox brain histamine N-methyltransferase did not exhibit substrate inhibition by histamine. Initial rate and product inhibition studies were consistent with an ordered steady-state mechanism with S-adenosylmethionine being the first substrate to bind to the enzyme and N-methylhistamine being the first product to dissociate.

Kinetic and spectral properties of isovaleryl-CoA dehydrogenase and interaction with ligands.

Project description:Isovaleryl-CoA dehydrogenase (IVD) catalyzes the conversion of isovaleryl-CoA to 3-methylcrotonyl-CoA and the transfer of electrons to the electron transfer flavoprotein (ETF). Recombinant human IVD purifies with bound CoA-persulfide. A modified purification protocol was developed to isolate IVD without bound CoA-persulfide and to protect the protein thiols from oxidation. The CoA-persulfide-free IVD specific activity was 112.5 ?mol porcine ETF min(-)(1) mg(-)(1), which was ?20-fold higher than that of its CoA-persulfide bound form. The Km and catalytic efficiency (kcat/Km) for isovaleryl-CoA were 1.0 ?M and 4.3 × 10(6) M(-1) s(-1) per monomer, respectively, and its Km for ETF was 2.0 ?M. Anaerobic titration of isovaleryl-CoA into an IVD solution resulted in a stable blue complex with increased absorbance at 310 nm, decreased absorbance at 373 and 447 nm, and the appearance of the charge transfer complex band at 584 nm. The apparent dissociation constant (KDapp) determined spectrally for isovaleryl-CoA was 0.54 ?M. Isovaleryl-CoA, acetoacetyl-CoA, methylenecyclopropyl-acetyl-CoA, and ETF induced CD spectral changes at the 250-500 nm region while isobutyryl-CoA did not, suggesting conformational changes occur at the flavin ring that are ligand specific. Replacement of the IVD Trp166 with a Phe did not block IVD interaction with ETF, indicating that its indole ring is not essential for electron transfer to ETF. A twelve amino acid synthetic peptide that matches the sequence of the ETF docking peptide competitively inhibited the enzyme reaction when ETF was used as the electron acceptor with a Ki of 1.5 mM.
