[目的]研究α-酮戊二酸脱氢酶系在光滑球拟酵母碳代谢流、能量代谢和氨基酸代谢中的生理作用.[方法]通过敲除光滑球拟酵母中编码α-酮戊二酸脱氢酶系中E1酶的基因kgd1,构建α-酮戊二酸脱氢酶活性缺失菌株T.glabrata kgd1::kan,并考察KGDH缺失引起TCA循环关键酶活性,碳代谢流量以及胞内氨基酸和能荷水平等方面的变化.[结果]光滑球拟酵母中α-酮戊二酸脱氢酶活性的缺失导致:(1)细胞启动乙醛酸途径,通过形成TCA-乙醛酸循环实现TCA循环的正常代谢;(2)胞内NADH/NAD+水平下降33.7%,ATP/ADP水平下降31.8%,而与NADH代谢相关的丙酮酸脱氢酶、异柠檬酸脱氢酶和苹果酸脱氢酶的活性分别提高58.1%、33.3%和32.5%;(3)胞内丙酮酸含量下降50.1%,而胞内琥珀酸、苹果酸和α-酮戊二酸含量则分别增加了172.7%、66.1%和41.1%;(4)丙酮酸族氨基酸含量下降29.3%,而胞内谷氨酸族氨基酸和天冬氨酸族氨基酸含量则提高了34.7%和26.8%.[结论]上述研究结果表明,α-酮戊二酸脱氢酶系在微生物细胞中心碳代谢、能量代谢和氨基酸代谢中发挥着重要作用.     

溶解氧对γ-聚谷氨酸合成的影响

在5L发酵罐上研究了溶解氧(DO)对地衣芽孢杆菌分批发酵生产γ-聚谷氨酸(γ-PGA)的影响并考察在8h、32h、56h时,葡萄糖激酶、6-磷酸葡萄糖脱氢酶、丙酮酸脱氢酶、异柠檬酸脱氢酶和谷氨酸脱氢酶的活性及对应时间点上γ-PGA的生产速率。通过溶解氧电极和搅拌转速的串联控制发酵过程中溶解氧水平,发现高溶解氧(60%)水平和低溶解氧(10%)水平均不能高效积累γ-PGA。6-磷酸葡萄糖脱氢酶活性的提高对产物的积累有抑制作用,葡萄糖激酶和谷氨酸脱氢酶的酶活提高对产物积累有促进作用,过高的丙酮酸脱氢酶和异柠檬酸脱氢酶的活性在一定程度上可以促进菌体生长但不利于产物的积累。此外,通过对三种不同DO水平下γ-PGA生物合成途径中相关代谢流量的计算表明,在p H 6.5的条件下,对于谷氨酸依赖型生产菌株,提高外源谷氨酸利用率可以促进γ-PGA的生物合成。     

碳源对重组大肠杆菌两阶段发酵产丁二酸的影响

研究了在好氧培养基中分别添加不同碳源对两阶段发酵菌体生长、酶活及代谢产物分布的影响,结果表明添加4mmol/L葡萄糖和12,54,80mmol/L乙酸钠均可以提高好氧阶段的菌体密度和相关酶活。将不同条件下培养的菌体转接厌氧发酵后,厌氧阶段的酶活和代谢产物分布也发生改变。进一步对酶活及代谢产物分析表明：Escherichia coli NZN111(sfcA)厌氧发酵过程中,磷酸烯醇式丙酮酸羧化激酶(PCK)是产丁二酸的关键酶,丙酮酸激酶(PYK)主要和副产物丙酮酸的积累有关,异柠檬酸裂解酶(ICL)对丁二酸产量也有一定影响。好氧培养基中添加80mmol/L乙酸钠,厌氧发酵结束时丁二酸的质量收率可达89.0%,相比对照提高了16.6%。

大肠杆菌DH5α及其耐乙酸突变株DA19在氮源限制下的代谢和关键酶特性研究

在氮源限制的基本培养基中对大肠杆菌DH5α及其耐乙酸突变株DA19进行连续培养,通过测定中心代谢途径关键酶的活性分析二者代谢差异。结果表明,DA19的6-磷酸葡萄糖脱氢酶(G6PDH)和异柠檬酸脱氢酶(ICDH)活性高于DH5α,而磷酸果糖激酶(PFK)和乙酸激酶(ACK)活性低于DH5α,反映了DA19进入磷酸戊糖途径(PPP)的碳流增加,而进入酵解和乙酸产生(Ack-Pta)途径的碳流减少。因此,关键酶活差异与DA19菌体关于葡萄糖得率提高、副产物乙酸和丙酮酸的生成减少相一致。添加腺嘌呤后,DH5α的G6PDH和ICDH活性增加,PFK和ACK活性降低,而DA19各酶活变化不明显。乙酸钠的添加导致除PFK外的其他酶活性均降低,尤其是DH5α的ICDH明显降低,这些结果反映的中心代谢途径流量变化也与二者生长和代谢副产物积累的变化一致。     

腺嘌呤对大肠杆菌DH5α和其耐乙酸突变株DA19 代谢流分布的影响

【目的】本文通过分析在基本培养基中添加腺嘌呤对大肠杆菌DH5α和其耐乙酸突变株DA19代谢流分布的影响,从而进一步了解二者在代谢调控方面的差异。【方法】对2个菌株分别在氮源限制基本培养基及添加腺嘌呤的氮源限制基本培养基中进行连续培养,分析两者代谢流变化差异,并与酶活测定结果进行比较。【结果】添加腺嘌呤降低了DH5α的葡萄糖比消耗速率和乙酸的比生成速率,提高了菌体关于葡萄糖的得率,而丙酮酸比生成速率变化不明显。与MN培养基相比,添加腺嘌呤后DH5α降低了乙酸分流比,提高了分泌丙酮酸和三羧酸循环分流比,同时明显改变了磷酸果糖激酶、6-磷酸葡萄糖脱氢酶和乙酸激酶酶活。与DH5α不同,添加腺嘌呤使得DA19的丙酮酸比生成速率增加了近57%,而其它参数无明显改变。与MN培养基相比,DA19在添加腺嘌呤后降低了三羧酸循环分流比,大大提高了分泌丙酮酸分流比,而关键酶活未发生明显改变。酶活变化与代谢流结果基本一致。【结论】由于大肠杆菌DH5α和DA19嘌呤核苷酸从头合成途径能力存在差异,因此添加腺嘌呤对两个菌株的代谢流分布产生了完全不同的影响。     

Regularities of organ-specific expression of enzyme systems in cattle]

The organ specificity of creatine kinase, esterase, isocitrate dehydrogenase lactate dehydrogenase, nucleoside phosphorylase, adenylate kinase, hexokinase, malate dehydrogenase, malic enzyme, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase of black-white cattle has been studied. Esterases, creatine kinase, adenylate kinase, hexokinase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase have a very wide spectrum of the organ variabilities. Liver and heart have the largest specificity of enzymes activity. Some peculiarities of isozyme spectrum are found in ovaries and spleen.     

Selective Inhibition of Bacterial Enzymes by Free Fatty Acids

Octanoic acid inhibits, in vitro, the bacterial enzymes glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, phosphofructokinase, pyruvate kinase, fumarase, lactate dehydrogenase, and the malic enzyme of Arthrobacter crystallopoietes. The free fatty acid appears to act as an inhibitor of lipogenesis, although it does not affect the rate of gluconeogenesis. To demonstrate that this inhibition may be of physiological significance in vivo, those enzymes not involved in lipogenesis, such as fructose-1, 6-diphosphatase, phosphoglucomutase, phosphohexoisomerase, aconitase, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP) isocitrate dehydrogenase, NADP glutamate dehydrogenase, malate dehydrogenase, and isocitrate lyase, were assayed and found not to be inhibited by the free fatty acid.     

Purification of nucleotide-requiring enzymes by immunoaffinity chromatography.

Monospecific (affinity-purified) anti-(yeast glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase) IgG inhibits three different NADPH-requiring enzymes, chicken liver dihydrofolate reductase, pigeon liver fatty acid synthetase and chicken liver malic enzyme. The inhibition of all three enzymes was approx. 50% in a 2h incubation with 100 micrograms of IgG. Similarly, with several different NADH-requiring enzymes, an immunocrossreactivity was observed. Monospecific anti-(rabbit muscle glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase) IgG inhibited yeast alcohol dehydrogenase and pig heart malate dehydrogenase by 39% and 55% respectively. The cross-reactivity observed was tested by affinity chromatography. Immunoaffinity columns made with each monospecific IgG were able to bind each of the enzymes it immunotitrated. Enzymes were eluted with a nondenaturing solvent with little loss of activity. The immunoaffinity column with monospecific anti-(glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase) IgG as the bound ligand was also used to purify partially (over 150-fold) both isocitrate dehydrogenase and dihydrofolate reductase from crude rat liver homogenate.     

The in situ assay of Candida albicans enzymes during yeast growth and germ-tube formation

Conditions are described for the preparation of permeabilized cells of Candida albicans. This method has been used for the in situ assay of enzymes in both yeast cells and germ-tube forming cells. A mixture of toluene/ethanol/Triton X-100 (1:4:0.2, by vol.) at 15% (v/v) and 8% (v/v) was optimal for the in situ assay of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase in yeast and germ-tube forming cells, respectively. The concentration of toluene/ethanol/Triton X-100 required for optimal in situ activity of other enzymes was influenced by the cellular location of the enzyme, growth phase and morphology. The membrane-bound enzymes (chitin synthase, glucan synthase, ATPase), cytosolic enzymes (glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, isocitrate dehydrogenase, pyruvate kinase, phosphofructokinase, alkaline phosphatase, glucosamine-6-phosphate deaminase and N-acetylglucosamine kinase) and wall enzymes (beta-glucosidase and acid phosphatase) were measured and compared to the activity obtained in cell extracts. The pattern of enzyme induction and the properties of the allosteric enzymes phosphofructokinase and pyruvate kinase were measured in situ. Pyruvate kinase in situ was homotropic for phosphoenolpyruvate with a Hill coefficient of 1.9 and a S0.5 of 0.6 mM, whereas in cell extracts, it had a Hill coefficient of 1.9 and a S0.5 of 1.0 mM. The Km for ATP was 1.6 mM in cell extracts and 1.8 mM in permeabilized cells. In situ phosphofructokinase was homotropic for fructose 6-phosphate (S0.5 of 2.3 mM, Hill coefficient of 4.0). The kinetic properties of pyruvate kinase and phosphofructokinase measured in situ or in vitro were similar for both yeast cells and germ-tube forming cells.     

Pyruvate metabolism during maturation of hamlin oranges

The roles of the pyruvate decarboxylation pathway and TCA metabolic cycle in activation of anaerobic metabolism in ripening Hamlin oranges were investigated. Oranges were harvested weekly from October to February during the 1980–81 and 1981–82 growing season. Juice vesicles from each weekly sample were assayed for pyruvate decarboxylase, alcohol dehydrogenase, malic enzyme, phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase, malate dehydrogenase, citrate synthase, isocitrate dehydrogenase and cytochrome oxidase. Also, juice was assayed for ethanol, acetaldehyde, pyruvate, oxalacetate, malate and citrate. In December when ethanol accumulated rapidly in the fruit, pyruvate decarboxylase and alcohol dehydrogenase increased markedly. During the same month, the pyruvate level declined, suggesting that the increases in enzyme levels activated the conversion of pyruvate to ethanol.     

Perturbations in carbohydrate metabolism during cypermethrin toxicity in fish, Tilapia mossambica

Sublethal concentrations (0.04 ppm) of cypermethrin induced significant metabolic changes in brain, liver and gill tissues of fish, T. mossambica. While cypermethrin caused depletion in glycogen and pyruvate levels lactate content was elevated in all the tissues. While phosphorylase 'a' and aldolase activity increased, phosphorylase 'b' activity registered a decrease in the present study. A decrease in lactate dehydrogenase activity with increase in lactate levels suggests reduced mobilization of pyruvate into citric acid cycle. Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity was also elevated indicating enhanced oxidation through HMP pathway during cypermethrin toxicity. Inhibition of succinate, malate and isocitrate dehydrogenases and cytochrome c oxidase activity indicates impaired oxidation of carbohydrates through citric acid cycle.     

Nickel-induced changes in carbon metabolism in wheat shoots

In this study, we analyzed the toxic effect of Ni during the development of wheat shoots. Typical developmental alterations in carbon metabolism-related parameters reflecting changes associated with the transition of the seedlings from heterotrophic to autotrophic metabolism were observed in the control shoots between the 1st and the 4th days. Adverse effects of 50 and 100 μM Ni became evident starting from the 4th day of growth on the metal-containing media. We found that Ni-induced stimulation of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC) activity coincided with decrease in the ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco) level and with declines in net photosynthetic rate (P_N) and stomatal conductance (g_s). Application of Ni resulted in increased activities of several dehydrogenases: glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH), 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (6PGDH), isocitrate dehydrogenase (NADP-ICDH) and malate dehydrogenase (NADH-MDH). In contrast, the activities of malic enzymes (NADP-ME and NAD-ME) decreased due to Ni stress. Treatment with Ni led to accumulation of glucose and declined concentration of sucrose as well as considerable increases in concentrations of malic and citric acids. Our results indicate that Ni stress redirects the carbon metabolism of developing wheat shoots to provide carbon skeletons for synthesis of amino acids and organic acids as well as to supply reducing power to sustain normal metabolic processes and to support defense mechanisms against oxidative stress.     

A comparative study of enzyme profile of camel (Camelus dromedarius) hump and sheep (Ovis aries) tail tissues

1. The activities of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase, malic enzyme, NAD+ and NADP+ isocitrate isocitrate dehydrogenase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, lactate dehydrogenase and pyruvate kinase were assayed in homogenate of camel hump and sheep tail tissues. 2. In addition the levels of glucose, cholesterol, total protein and total lipids in these tissues were measured. 3. Results obtained were utilized to compare the state of metabolism of adipose tissue of camel hump to that of sheep tail, and to shed some light on possible contribution of these tissues toward blood glucose level.     

Cytochemical research on cysts of the sarcosporidian Sarcocystis bovicanis. II. Oxidation-reduction enzymes

By the means of light-microscopic cytological enzymatic methods, the presence of several enzymes (NAD.H and NADP.H-tetrazolium reductases, in addition to alcohol, succinate, isocitrate, glucose-6-phosphate, beta-hydroxybutyrate and glutamate dehydrogenases) has been studied in the tissue cysts of S. bovicanis. A mixed character of oxidative metabolism in the cyst stages is suggested, the involvement of gluconeogenesis being proposed. Neither beta-hydroxybutyrate nor alcohol dehydrogenase activity was demonstrated indicating the absence or a very low rate of lipid metabolism, and suggesting that the process of glycolysis may end with malate formation. From the low activity level of succinate dehydrogenases it is concluded that the citric acid cycle plays presumably a secondary role, if at all, in the energy supply of the cyst stages. Also, a low activity of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenases is pointed out. Thus, it is proposed that glycolysis may be primary, if not the only, oxidative pathway in the cyst stages.     

Effect of allatectomy on fat body lipogenic enzymes of the male desert locust during adult development

The effect of allatectomy on the changes in activity of enzymes concerned with the conversion of dietary carbohydrate to lipid by the fat body during development has been investigated. The enzymes studied were phosphofructokinase, pyruvate kinase, malic enzyme, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase isocitrate dehydrogenase, ATP citrate lyase, and fructose-1,6-diphosphatase. All operations were carried out at 4 days after emergence and allatectomized insects were compared with sham operated controls. The sham-operated controls showed similar enzyme changes to normal insects during development, thus the physical stress of the operation does not affect fat body metabolism.
