Embryos of pea (Pisum sativum L. cv Sol) deprived of cotyledons were cultured for 3 days in medium with or without sucrose. Respiratory activity of embryos (intact)
as well as the ability to oxidize glutamate by mitochondria isolated from embryos were studied. Respiration of intact embryos
grown in sucrose supplemented medium was more intensive than in the starved ones. Transfer of the starved embryos to the sucrose-containing
medium induced the increase in the intensity of O2 consumption. Mitochondria isolated from both starved and control embryos exhibited respiratory control. Mitochondria isolated
from embryos cultured in the absence of sucrose showed higher (about 60 %) ability to oxidize glutamate and α-ketoglutarate
than mitochondria from embryos grown in sucrose containing medium. The absence of sucrose in the medium led to a rapid increase
in the specific activity of glutamate dehydrogenase (NADH-GDH and NAD-GDH) and it was accompanied by changes in izoenzymatic
pattern of enzyme. These results suggest that in the conditions of sucrose starvation glutamate dehydrogenase may be responsible
for the increase of glutamate oxidation by mitochondria of pea embryos. Electrophoretic separation of glutamate dehydrogenase
isolated from embryos cultured in medium without sucrose showed the presence of ca. 17 isoenzymes while in non-starved embryos only 7 isoenzymes were identified. However, the addition of sucrose to starved
embryos after 24 hours of cultivation led to a decrease in glutamate dehydrogenase activity (up to 40 %) but it did not cause
the changes in isoenzymatic pattern. These results suggest that in the conditions of sucrose starvation glutamate dehydrogenase
maybe responsible for the increase of glutamate oxidation by mitochondria of pea embryos. The posibility of glutamate dehydrogenase
regulation by sucrose is discussed. 相似文献

Duckweed Lemna minor L. was grown on Wang culture medium supplemented with lead ions for 24 hours. Metal was tested at 1.5, 3 and 6 mg·dm−3 concentrations. The growth of Lemna minor was inhibited by lead ions, but the dry to fresh weight ratio increased as the concentration of Pb2+ in the medium increased. With increased concentrations of Pb ions, the contents of chlorophyll a and chlorophyll b in roots and fronds were correspondingly lower in comparision with the control. The effect of lead upon activities of some
glycolitic and fermentative enzymes in roots of duckweed was examined. The activity of pyruvate kinase decreased with increasing
lead concentrations, but cytosolic malate dehydrogenase behaved in an opposite manner. The lowest concentration of Pb stimulated
alcohol dehydrogenase; phosphoenolopyruvate carboxylase activity was maintained at relatively constant values at all tested
lead concentrations. 相似文献

Unlike other lactic acid bacteria, Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis NCDO 2118 was able to grow in a medium lacking glutamate and the amino acids of the glutamate family. Growth in such a medium proceeded after a lag phase of about 2 days and with a reduced growth rate (0.11 h−1) compared to that in the reference medium containing glutamate (0.16 h−1). The enzymatic studies showed that a phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase activity was present, while the malic enzyme and the enzymes of the glyoxylic shunt were not detected. As in most anaerobic bacteria, no α-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase activity could be detected, and the citric acid cycle was restricted to a reductive pathway leading to succinate formation and an oxidative branch enabling the synthesis of α-ketoglutarate. The metabolic bottleneck responsible for the limited growth rate was located in this latter pathway. As regards the synthesis of glutamate from α-ketoglutarate, no glutamate dehydrogenase was detected. While the glutamate synthase-glutamine synthetase system was detected at a low level, high transaminase activity was measured. The conversion of α-ketoglutarate to glutamate by the transaminase, the reverse of the normal physiological direction, operated with different amino acids as nitrogen donor. All of the enzymes assayed were shown to be constitutive. 相似文献

TheRhizobium tropici strain CFN 299 was maintained on PY medium and was grown in minimal medium (MM) with sucrose, glucose, fructose and glutamate (or their combination) as carbon sources. Bacteria were able to simultaneously use different carbon sources and, with a combination sucrose and glutamate, the growth rate was faster than with either carbon source alone. Sucrose transport was induced by sucrose and partially repressed by glucose and glutamate if they were included in MM as additional carbon sources. The transport of sucrose was active because both an uncoupler (dinitrophenol, DNP) and inhibitors of terminal oxidation (KCN, NaN3) severely reduced sucrose uptake. Sucrose transport was also sensitive to a functional sulfhydryl reagent but was much less sensitive to EDTA and arsenate. We obtained nonlinear Lineweaver-Burk plots for the uptake of sucrose (by sucrose-grown bacteria), and this implied the existence of at least two uptake mechanisms. Invertase (EC 3.2.1.26) is the main enzyme for sucrose hydrolysis in this organism. This enzyme was induced by sucrose and had high activity in mid-log phase cells when sucrose was the sole carbon source (0.2%). Invertase activity was not detected in growth medium. In general, the results obtained support the idea, thatR. tropici is adapted to sucrose utilization and to multicarbon nutrition during its interaction with plants. 相似文献

Growth, N-metabolism and isoenzyme pattern of glutamate dehydrogenase in batch-cultures of Pisum sativum cells under light and dark conditions. Cell suspension cultures of Pisum sativum L. derived from root and shoot sections of seedlings have been prepared and cultured in defined nutrient medium. Both the cells and the media were analysed daily for the N-fractions and carbohydrates during the growth period. The data obtained indicate specific correlations between growth and nitrogen and carbohydrate metabolism. At the beginning of the growth cycle ammonia as compared to nitrate was favoured in uptake. An increased uptake of nitrate occurred at the end of the linear growth phase when carbohydrate in the media was depleted. The uptake of sucrose was rapid during the whole growth cycle, only in the range of the linear growth phase the uptake stagnated for 3 or 4 days. During increased biosynthesis of nitrogenous compounds at the beginning of the growth cycle up to seven isoenzymes of the glutamate dehydrogenase could be separated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The isoenzyme pattern changed during the stationary growth phase, especially when the carbohydrate content in the medium decreased. There is some evidence that the isoenzyme pattern is influenced by carbohydrate metabolism. 相似文献

Nitrogen metabolism in Aspergillus parasiticus NRRL 3240 and A. flavus NRRL 3537 in relation to aflatoxin production 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0

The relationship between nitrogen assimilation, metabolism and aflatoxin formation has been investigated in a toxigenic and a non-toxigenic strain of Aspergillus parasiticus. Ammonia from the medium is mainly assimilated via NADP-requiring glutamate dehydrogenase. During growth NAD-requiring glutamate dehydrogenase followed an inverse pattern of activity with respect to NADP glutamate dehydrogenase. Alpha-ketoglutarate, the product of NAD glutamate dehydrogenase, stimulated acetate incorporation into aflatoxins. Glutamine synthetase, ornithine transcarbamylase, both utilizing glutamate as substrate were assayed under different growth conditions. An important regulatory role for glutamine synthetase is suggested. The metabolic route of asparagine utilization was also investigated. Both the known pathways, glutamate oxaloacetate transaminase and glutamate pyruvate transaminase are operative simultaneously. 相似文献

Photoautotrophic and mixotrophic growth of Lemna paucicostata Hegelm. 6746 (formerly Lemna perpusilla Torr. 6746) was investigated to establish standardized conditions for biochemical studies. Optimal temperature for growth was 29 to 30 C. The medium used previously (Datko AH, Mudd SH, Giovanelli J 1977 J Biol Chem 252: 3436-3445) was modified by inclusion of NH4Cl, decreasing macronutrient and ethylenediamine tetraacetate concentration, increasing micronutrient concentration, and inclusion of bicarbonate (for photoautotrophic growth) or 2-(N-morpholino)ethanesulfonic acid (for mixotrophic growth) buffers. Varying the sulfate concentration between 14 and 1 millimolar had no effect on growth. For photoautotrophic growth in the new medium (medium 4), the effects of CO2 concentration, light intensity, and pH were measured. Under the optimal conditions, a multiplication rate (MR) of 300 to 315, equivalent to a doubling time of 23 to 24 hours was obtained. Addition of glutamine or asparagine did not increase this MR. For mixotrophic growth in low light, the effects of sucrose concentration and pH were determined. Under optimal conditions, MR was 210. A concentration of sucrose less than maximal for growth was chosen for the medium for experiments which will include 14C-labeling of intermediates. MR under these conditions was 184. Growth was equally good in medium 4 and in half-strength Hutner's medium when sulfate was high (0.4 to 1 millimolar), but better in medium 4 when sulfate was low (20 micromolar). Growth rates could be restored to normal in half-strength Hutner's with low sulfate by decreasing the molybdate concentration. 相似文献

Research of the regulatory function of sucrose in storage protein breakdown was conducted on isolated embryo axes, excised
cotyledons and whole seedlings of three lupine species grown in vitro on medium with 60 mM sucrose or without the sugar. Sucrose
stimulated growth of yellow, white and Andean lupine isolated embryo axes and cotyledons but growth of seedlings was inhibited.
Dry matter content was higher in sucrose-fed isolated organs and in seedling organs. Ultrastructure research revealed that
lack of sucrose in the medium caused enhancement in storage protein breakdown. Protein deposits in cotyledons were smaller
as well as soluble portion content in all studied organs was lower when there was no sucrose in the medium. In the same conditions,
the activity of glutamate dehydrogenase was significantly higher. Increase in vacuolization of cells of white lupine root
meristematic zone cells was observed and induction of autophagy in young carbohydrate-starved embryo axes is discussed. 相似文献

Alanine dehydrogenase in Arthrobacter fluorescens exhibited an allosteric behaviour and two K
m values for ammonium were estimated. In batch cultures at different ammonium concentrations and in continuous culture following an NH4
+ pulse, the level of ADH activity seems to be regulated by the ammonium concentration, high activities being observed when extracellular ammonium was in excess. The response to the growth rate of an ammonium-limited chemostat culture of A. fluorescens seems to indicate that alanine dehydrogenase and glutamine synthetase activities were inversely related. High activities of glutamate oxaloacetate transaminase and glutamate pyruvate transaminase have been found in crude extract of ammonium-limited cultures. From the results obtained in batch cultures grown at different glucose concentrations and in carbon-limited chemostat culture it appeared that the limitation by glucose influenced alanine dehydrogenase activity negatively. No glutamate dehydrogenase activity and no glutamate synthase activity could be detected with either NADH or NADPH as coenzymes.Abbreviations ADH

Bacillus fastidiosus was able to grow on glycerol as a carbon source when allantoin or urate was used as nitrogen source. The primary assimilatory enzyme for glycerol was glycerol kinase; glycerol dehydrogenase could not be detected. The glycerol kinase activity was increased 30-fold in allantoin/glycerol-grown cells as compared to alantoin-grown cells. Under both growth conditions high levels of glutamate dehydrogenase were found. Glutamine synthetase and glutamate synthase activities could not be demonstrated, while low levels of alanine dehydrogenase were present. It is concluded that B. fastidiosus assimilates ammonia by the NADP-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase.Abbreviations GS

The unicellular cyanobacterium Synechococcus PCC6301 lacks a hybridisable homologue of the strongly conserved gdhA gene of E. coli that encodes NADP-specific glutamate dehydrogenase. This is consistent with the failure to find this enzyme in extracts of the cyanobacterium. The E. coli gdhA gene was transferred to Synechococcus PCC6301 by transformation with an integrative vector. High levels of glutamate dehydrogenase activity, similar to those found in ammonium grown E. coli cells, were found in these transformants. These transformed cyanobacteria displayed an ammonium tolerant phenotype, consistent with the action of their acquired glutamate dehydrogenase activity as an ammonium detoxification mechanism. Minor differences in colony size and in growth at low light intensity were also observed. 相似文献

Summary
Hydrogenomonas H 16 synthetized two chromatographically distinct forms of glutamate dehydrogenase which differed in their thermolability. One glutamate dehydrogenase utilized NAD, the other NADP as a coenzyme.Low specific activity of NAD-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase was found in cells grown with glutamate as sole nitrogen source or in cells grown with a high concentration of ammonium ions. In the presence of a low concentration of ammonium ions or in a nitrogen free medium, the specific activity of the NAD-dependent enzyme increased. Corresponding to the formation of the NAD-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase the enzyme glutamine synthetase was synthesized. The ratio of NAD-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase to glutamine synthetase activity differed only slightly in cells grown with different nitrogen and carbon sources.The NADP-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase was found in high specific activity in cells grown with an excess of ammonium ions. Under nitrogen starvation the formation of the NADP-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase ceased and the enzyme activity decreased. 相似文献

The osmotolerant fungusAspergillus chevalieri tolerates up to 80% sucrose concentration in the growth medium. At 50% sucrose the growth rate is 1.5-fold higher than in
control (3% sucrose), at 80% sucrose it drops to 30% of the control level. Total proteins and lipids in the mitochondrial
fractions obtained from the mycelium rise with increasing sucrose concentration during growth (2.6 and 2.1 times at 80% sucrose).
The rate of respiration by whole cells and mitochondrial fractions increases with increased sucrose level in the growth medium.
The activity of respiratory enzymes, such as succinate dehydrogenase, cytochrome oxidase, NADH oxidase and succinate oxidase,
were also higher in cells growth in the presence of elevated sucrose concentrations. The largest increase was observed with
NADH dehydrogenase.A. chevalieri cells grown at high osmotic stress exhibited enlarged mitochondria. The mean mitochondrial diameter at 50 and 80% sucrose was approximately
2.9- and 2.6-fold larger than in the control, respectively. Agarose gel electrophoresis of nucleic acids revealed the presence
of high-density bands of RNA in mitochondrial fractions from cells grown at elevated sucrose levels. 相似文献

In Pseudomonas aeruginosa the formation of urease, histidase and some other enzymes involved in nitrogen assimilation is repressed by ammonia in the growth medium. The key metabolite in this process appears to be glutamine or a product derived from it, since ammonia and glutamate did not repress urease and histidase synthesis in a mutant lacking glutamine synthetase activity when growth was limited for glutamine. The synthesis of these enzymes was repressed in cells growing in the presence of excess glutamine. High levels of glutamine were also required for the derepression of NADP-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase formation in the glutamine synthetase-negative mutant. 相似文献

Flowering in Lemna perpusilla 6746 grown on tenth-strength Hutner's medium under short days was inhibited by 30 mM sucrose, glucose or fructose, but not by mannitol. The inhibition by sucrose does not appear to be due to sucrose-induced acidification of the medium during growth, or to trace metal contaminants of the sugar. Inhibition was partially prevented by raising either Ca2+ or phosphate to levels used in half-strength medium. Possible mechanisms for these effects are discussed. 相似文献

Spray-dried cells of Lactobacillus sakei CTC 494 survived ca. 60% longer in the spray dried state when cells were grown in the presence of 20g sucrose l–1or 12.5g monosodium glutamate l–1. No significant differences were observed in viability during storage in the freeze dried state with the addition of these compounds to the growth medium, nor in survival during a heat treatment (55°C). Both sucrose and glutamate in the growth medium suppressed intracellular accumulation of total amino acids and changed the overall pattern of the individual amino acids. Glutamate in the growth medium enhanced intracellular glutamate by ca. 38%.

A quantitative analysis of malate dehydrogenase isozymes has been carried out in a hexaploid wheat Triticum aestivum variety Holdfast, a diploid rye Secale cereale variety King II, a series of seven addition lines each having the Holdfast wheat chromosome complement, and also a different homologous pair of King II rye chromosomes. In young shoots of three of these addition lines grown in a defined salts medium lacking sucrose, at least one isozyme activity was elevated. This did not occur in shoots grown in a medium containing 0.5% sucrose or in the Triticale possessing the full wheat and rye chromosomal complements grown in the absence of exogenous sucrose. On the basis of cellular localization and substrate inhibition studies, the particular isozyme activities enhanced by the rye chromosomes were indistinguishable from isozyme activities in Holdfast wheat and dissimilar to all malate dehydrogenase isozyme activities observed in King II rye. These results suggest that three different rye chromosomes produce gene products which can interact with the wheat malate dehydrogenase regulatory system. 相似文献

Summary Production of the dipeptide antibiotic bacilysin byBacillus subtilis 168 was growth associated and showed no evidence of repression by glucose or sucrose. Carbohydrates other than glucose and sucrose yielded lower specific titers of bacilysin. Bacilysin production in three such carbon sources (maltose, xylose, ribose) was delayed until growth slowed down. Ammonium salts were poor for bacilysin production when used as the sole nitrogen source. When added to the standard medium containing glutamate, they suppressed antibiotic production. Aspartate was slightly better than glutamate for antibiotic production as sole nitrogen source. No other nitrogen source tested, including inorganic, organic or complex, approached the activity of glutamate or aspartate. When added to glutamate, casamino acids, phenylalanine and alanine (a substrate of bacilysin synthetase) suppressed bacilysin production while stimulating growth. Phosphate provided for optimum growth and production at 7.5 mM and both processes were inhibited at higher concentrations. Ferric citrate stimulated growth and inhibited bacilysin production, the effects being due to both the iron and the citrate components. Elimination of ferric citrate stimulated production as did increasing the concentration of Mn to its optimum concentration of 6.6×10–4M. 相似文献
