Inhibition of alcohol dehydrogenase from yeast by pyridine.

ABSTRACT: 1. Inhibition by pyridine of reduction of NAD by ethanol in the presence of yeast alcohol dehydrogenase was studied at 25 degrees in 60mm-glycine buffer (K(+), pH9.3). 2. The apparent Michaelis constant for ethanol increases linearly and that for NAD increases non-linearly with pyridine concentration. 3. Rates, v, observed in the presence of pyridine are lower than the values calculated from the effect of pyridine on the two apparent Michaelis constants and are described by the expression V/v={1+5.8[pyridine]}x{1+0.016(1+124 [pyridine)]/[EtOH]}x{1+0.00019(1+3.3[pyridine]+110 [pyridine](2))/[NAD]}. 4. Mixed inhibitor studies with pyridine and N(1)-methylnicotinamide chloride in 40mm-pyrophosphate buffer (Na(+), pH8.2) indicated little interaction of pyridine with the ;pyridinium site' of the dehydrogenase (interaction constant, alpha, 2.1). 5. The possible competition of ethanol and pyridine for a zinc atom in the active centre of yeast alcohol dehydrogenase is discussed.

Yeast alcohol dehydrogenase structure and catalysis.

Project description:Yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) alcohol dehydrogenase I (ADH1) is the constitutive enzyme that reduces acetaldehyde to ethanol during the fermentation of glucose. ADH1 is a homotetramer of subunits with 347 amino acid residues. A structure for ADH1 was determined by X-ray crystallography at 2.4 Å resolution. The asymmetric unit contains four different subunits, arranged as similar dimers named AB and CD. The unit cell contains two different tetramers made up of "back-to-back" dimers, AB:AB and CD:CD. The A and C subunits in each dimer are structurally similar, with a closed conformation, bound coenzyme, and the oxygen of 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol ligated to the catalytic zinc in the classical tetrahedral coordination with Cys-43, Cys-153, and His-66. In contrast, the B and D subunits have an open conformation with no bound coenzyme, and the catalytic zinc has an alternative, inverted coordination with Cys-43, Cys-153, His-66, and the carboxylate of Glu-67. The asymmetry in the dimeric subunits of the tetramer provides two structures that appear to be relevant for the catalytic mechanism. The alternative coordination of the zinc may represent an intermediate in the mechanism of displacement of the zinc-bound water with alcohol or aldehyde substrates. Substitution of Glu-67 with Gln-67 decreases the catalytic efficiency by 100-fold. Previous studies of structural modeling, evolutionary relationships, substrate specificity, chemical modification, and site-directed mutagenesis are interpreted more fully with the three-dimensional structure.

Inhibition of alcohol dehydrogenase by bismuth.

Project description:Bismuth compounds have been widely used for the treatment of ulcers and Helicobacter pylori infection, and enzyme inhibition was thought to be crucial for bismuth anti-microbial activity. We have investigated the interaction of colloidal bismuth subcitrate (CBS) with alcohol dehydrogenase and our results demonstrate that bismuth can effectively inhibit the enzyme. Kinetic analysis revealed that CBS acted as a non-competitive inhibitor of yeast alcohol dehydrogenase. Both UV-vis and fluorescence data show that interaction of CBS with the enzyme exhibits biphasic processes. Bismuth can replace only half of Zn(II) from the enzyme (i.e., about one Zn(II) per monomer). Surprisingly, binding of CBS also induces the enzyme dissociation from its native form, tetramer into dimers. The inhibition of Bi(III) on the enzyme is probably due to its direct interference with the zinc sites. This study is likely to provide an insight into the mechanism of action of bismuth drugs.

The binding of dihydronicotinamide--adenine dinucleotide and pyridine-3-aldehyde--adenine dinucleotide by yeast alcohol dehydrogenase.

Project description:1. Yeast alcohol dehydrogenase has been found to react with NADH in the presence of acetamide to form a highly fluorescent ternary complex. Titration of the enzyme to form this complex has provided a method for the estimation of the number of binding sites on the enzyme. 2. The binding of NADH by the enzyme has been studied independently, with a modified form of equilibrium dialysis, by using gel filtration. 3. A third method, depending upon the formation of a ternary complex of enzyme, hydroxylamine and pyridine-3-aldehyde-adenine dinucleotide, has also been used to titrate the enzyme. 4. Values obtained with all three methods are substantially in agreement that only three coenzyme-binding sites are available. This is in contrast with the established fact that the enzyme is composed of four identical subunits.

The alcohol dehydrogenase system in the xylose-fermenting yeast Candida maltosa.

Project description:The alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) system plays a critical role in sugar metabolism involving in not only ethanol formation and consumption but also the general "cofactor balance" mechanism. Candida maltosa is able to ferment glucose as well as xylose to produce a significant amount of ethanol. Here we report the ADH system in C. maltosa composed of three microbial group I ADH genes (CmADH1, CmADH2A and CmADH2B), mainly focusing on its metabolic regulation and physiological function.Genetic analysis indicated that CmADH2A and CmADH2B tandemly located on the chromosome could be derived from tandem gene duplication. In vitro characterization of enzymatic properties revealed that all the three CmADHs had broad substrate specificities. Homo- and heterotetramers of CmADH1 and CmADH2A were demonstrated by zymogram analysis, and their expression profiles and physiological functions were different with respect to carbon sources and growth phases. Fermentation studies of ADH2A-deficient mutant showed that CmADH2A was directly related to NAD regeneration during xylose metabolism since CmADH2A deficiency resulted in a significant accumulation of glycerol.Our results revealed that CmADH1 was responsible for ethanol formation during glucose metabolism, whereas CmADH2A was glucose-repressed and functioned to convert the accumulated ethanol to acetaldehyde. To our knowledge, this is the first demonstration of function separation and glucose repression of ADH genes in xylose-fermenting yeasts. On the other hand, CmADH1 and CmADH2A were both involved in ethanol formation with NAD regeneration to maintain NADH/NAD ratio in favor of producing xylitol from xylose. In contrast, CmADH2B was expressed at a much lower level than the other two CmADH genes, and its function is to be further confirmed.

Bivalent cations stabilize yeast alcohol dehydrogenase I.

Project description:The thermostability of yeast alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) I is strongly dependent on the presence of NaCl, a salt that is almost neutral on the Hofmeister scale, which suggests that solvent-accessible electrostatic repulsion might play a role in the inactivation of the enzyme. Moreover, CaCl2 and MgCl2 are able to stabilize the enzyme at millimolar concentrations. Ca2+ stabilizes yeast ADH I by preventing the dissociation of the reduced form of the enzyme and by preventing the unfolding of the oxidized form of the enzyme. An analysis of several chimaeric ADHs suggests that Ca2+ is fixed by the Asp-236 and Glu-101 side chains in yeast ADH I, but that Ca2+ can be displaced by replacing Met-168 by an Arg residue, as suggested by a three-dimensional model of the enzyme structure. These results indicate that electrostatic repulsion can cause protein unfolding and/or dissociation. It is proposed that yeast ADH I binds Mg2+ in vivo.

Beyond alcohol oxidase: the methylotrophic yeast Komagataella phaffii utilizes methanol also with its native alcohol dehydrogenase Adh2.

Project description:Methylotrophic yeasts are considered to use alcohol oxidases to assimilate methanol, different to bacteria which employ alcohol dehydrogenases with better energy conservation. The yeast Komagataella phaffii carries two genes coding for alcohol oxidase, AOX1 and AOX2. The deletion of the AOX1 leads to the MutS phenotype and the deletion of AOX1 and AOX2 to the Mut- phenotype. The Mut- phenotype is commonly regarded as unable to utilize methanol. In contrast to the literature, we found that the Mut- strain can consume methanol. This ability was based on the promiscuous activity of alcohol dehydrogenase Adh2, an enzyme ubiquitously found in yeast and normally responsible for ethanol consumption and production. Using 13C labeled methanol as substrate we could show that to the largest part methanol is dissimilated to CO2 and a small part is incorporated into metabolites, the biomass, and the secreted recombinant protein. Overexpression of the ADH2 gene in K. phaffii Mut- increased both the specific methanol uptake rate and recombinant protein production, even though the strain was still unable to grow. These findings imply that thermodynamic and kinetic constraints of the dehydrogenase reaction facilitated the evolution towards alcohol oxidase-based methanol metabolism in yeast.

Michael hydratase alcohol dehydrogenase or just alcohol dehydrogenase?

Project description:The Michael hydratase - alcohol dehydrogenase (MhyADH) from Alicycliphilus denitrificans was previously identified as a bi-functional enzyme performing a hydration of ?,?-unsaturated ketones and subsequent oxidation of the formed alcohols. The investigations of the bi-functionality were based on a spectrophotometric assay and an activity staining in a native gel of the dehydrogenase. New insights in the recently discovered organocatalytic Michael addition of water led to the conclusion that the previously performed experiments to identify MhyADH as a bi-functional enzyme and their results need to be reconsidered and the reliability of the methodology used needs to be critically evaluated.

Drosophila melanogaster alcohol dehydrogenase: product-inhibition studies.

Project description:The Drosophila melanogaster alleloenzymes AdhS and AdhF have been studied with respect to product inhibition by using the two substrate couples propan-2-ol/acetone and ethanol/acetaldehyde together with the coenzyme couple NAD+/NADH. With both substrate couples the reaction was consistent with an ordered Bi Bi mechanism. The substrates added to the enzyme in a compulsory order, with coenzyme as the leading substrate, to give two interconverting ternary complexes. The second ternary complex broke down with release of products in an obligatory order, with the aldehyde/ketone leaving first. Both the acetaldehyde and acetone products formed binary complexes with the enzyme that affected NAD+ binding. However, only an enzyme-acetone complex seemed to affect NADH binding and hence the reverse reaction. The inhibitory pattern with acetaldehyde as product was also affected by the formation of a ternary enzyme-NAD(+)-acetaldehyde complex, which broke down to acetic acid and NADH. The product-inhibition pattern shown in the present work is different from that published for Drosophila Adh previously and this discrepancy can not be explained by the use of different variants of Drosophila Adh.

Inhibition effects of furfural on alcohol dehydrogenase, aldehyde dehydrogenase and pyruvate dehydrogenase.

Project description:The kinetics of furfural inhibition of the enzymes alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH; EC 1.1.1.1), aldehyde dehydrogenase (AlDH; EC 1.2.1.5) and the pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) complex were studied in vitro. At a concentration of less than 2 mM furfural was found to decrease the activity of both PDH and AlDH by more than 90%, whereas the ADH activity decreased by less than 20% at the same concentration. Furfural inhibition of ADH and AlDH activities could be described well by a competitive inhibition model, whereas the inhibition of PDH was best described as non-competitive. The estimated K(m) value of AlDH for furfural was found to be about 5 microM, which was lower than that for acetaldehyde (10 microM). For ADH, however, the estimated K(m) value for furfural (1.2 mM) was higher than that for acetaldehyde (0.4 mM). The inhibition of the three enzymes by 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) was also measured. The inhibition caused by HMF of ADH was very similar to that caused by furfural. However, HMF did not inhibit either AlDH or PDH as severely as furfural. The inhibition effects on the three enzymes could well explain previously reported in vivo effects caused by furfural and HMF on the overall metabolism of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, suggesting a critical role of these enzymes in the observed inhibition.
