The NAD(+)-dependent malic enzyme (DME) and the NADP(+)-dependent malic enzyme (TME) of Sinorhizobium meliloti are representatives of a distinct class of malic enzymes that contain a 440-amino-acid N-terminal region homologous to other malic enzymes and a 330-amino-acid C-terminal region with similarity to phosphotransacetylase enzymes (PTA). We have shown previously that dme mutants of S. meliloti fail to fix N(2) (Fix(-)) in alfalfa root nodules, whereas tme mutants are unimpaired in their N(2)-fixing ability (Fix(+)). Here we report that the amount of DME protein in bacteroids is 10 times greater than that of TME. We therefore investigated whether increased TME activity in nodules would allow TME to function in place of DME. The tme gene was placed under the control of the dme promoter, and despite elevated levels of TME within bacteroids, no symbiotic nitrogen fixation occurred in dme mutant strains. Conversely, expression of dme from the tme promoter resulted in a large reduction in DME activity and symbiotic N(2) fixation. Hence, TME cannot replace the symbiotic requirement for DME. In further experiments we investigated the DME PTA-like domain and showed that it is not required for N(2) fixation. Thus, expression of a DME C-terminal deletion derivative or the Escherichia coli NAD(+)-dependent malic enzyme (sfcA), both of which lack the PTA-like region, restored wild-type N(2) fixation to a dme mutant. Our results have defined the symbiotic requirements for malic enzyme and raise the possibility that a constant high ratio of NADPH + H(+) to NADP in nitrogen-fixing bacteroids prevents TME from functioning in N(2)-fixing bacteroids. 相似文献

C(4)-dicarboxylic acids appear to be metabolized via the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle in N(2)-fixing bacteria (bacteroids) within legume nodules. In Sinorhizobium meliloti bacteroids from alfalfa, NAD(+)-malic enzyme (DME) is required for N(2) fixation, and this activity is thought to be required for the anaplerotic synthesis of pyruvate. In contrast, in the pea symbiont Rhizobium leguminosarum, pyruvate synthesis occurs via either DME or a pathway catalyzed by phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PCK) and pyruvate kinase (PYK). Here we report that dme mutants of the broad-host-range Sinorhizobium sp. strain NGR234 formed nodules whose level of N(2) fixation varied from 27 to 83% (plant dry weight) of the wild-type level, depending on the host plant inoculated. NGR234 bacteroids had significant PCK activity, and while single pckA and single dme mutants fixed N(2) at reduced rates, a pckA dme double mutant had no N(2)-fixing activity (Fix(-)). Thus, NGR234 bacteroids appear to synthesize pyruvate from TCA cycle intermediates via DME or PCK pathways. These NGR234 data, together with other reports, suggested that the completely Fix(-) phenotype of S. meliloti dme mutants may be specific to the alfalfa-S. meliloti symbiosis. We therefore examined the ME-like genes azc3656 and azc0119 from Azorhizobium caulinodans, as azc3656 mutants were previously shown to form Fix(-) nodules on the tropical legume Sesbania rostrata. We found that purified AZC3656 protein is an NAD(P)(+)-malic enzyme whose activity is inhibited by acetyl-coenzyme A (acetyl-CoA) and stimulated by succinate and fumarate. Thus, whereas DME is required for symbiotic N(2) fixation in A. caulinodans and S. meliloti, in other rhizobia this activity can be bypassed via another pathway(s). 相似文献

Acetylpyridine NADP replaced NADP in promoting the Mn2+ ion-requiring mitochondrial "malic" enzyme of Hymenolepis diminuta. Disrupted mitochondria displayed low levels of an apparent oxaloacetate-forming malate dehydrogenase activity when NAD or acetylpyridine NAD served as the coenzyme. Significant malate-dependent reduction of acetylpyridine NAD by H. diminuta mitochondria required Mn2+ ion and NADP, thereby indicating the tandem operation of "malic" enzyme and NADPH:NAD transhydrogenase. Incubation of mitochondrial preparations with oxaloacetate resulted in a non-enzymatic decarboxylation reaction. Coupling of malate oxidation with electron transport via the "malic" enzyme and transhydrogenase was demonstrated by polarographic assessment of mitochondrial reduced pyridine nucleotide oxidase activity. 相似文献

1. Skeletal muscle mitochondrial NAD(P)-dependent malic enzyme [EC 1.1.1. 39, L-malate:NAD+ oxidoreductase (decarboxylating)] from herring could use both coenzymes, NAD and NADP, in a similar manner. 2. The coenzyme preference of mitochondrial NAD(P)-dependent malic enzyme was probed using dual wavelength spectroscopy and pairing the natural coenzymes, NAD or NADP with their respective thionicotinamide analogues, s-NADP or s-NAD, that have absorbance maxima in reduced forms at 400 nm. 3. s-NAD and s-NADP were found to be good alternate substrates for NAD(P)-dependent malic enzyme, the apparent Km values for the thioderivatives were similar to those of the corresponding natural coenzymes. 4. ATP produced greater inhibition of the NAD or s-NAD linked reactions than of the NADP or s-NADP-linked reactions of skeletal muscle mitochondrial NAD(P)-dependent malic enzyme. 5. At 5 mM malate concentration and in the presence of 2 mM ATP the NADP-linked reaction is favoured and the activity ratios, V(s-NADP)/V(NAD) or V(NADP)/V(s-NAD), are 6 and 26, respectively. 相似文献

DEAE-cellulose chromatography of extracts of free-living Rhizobium meliloti cells revealed separate NAD+-dependent and NADP+-dependent malic enzyme activities. The NAD+ malic enzyme exhibited more activity with NAD+ as cofactor, but also showed some activity with NADP+. The NADP+ malic enzyme only showed activity when NADP+ was supplied as cofactor. Three independent transposon-induced mutants of R. meliloti which lacked NADP+ malic enzyme activity (dme) but retained NADP+ malic enzyme activity were isolated. In an otherwise wild-type background, the dme mutations did not alter the carbon utilization phenotype; however, nodules induced by these mutants failed to fix N2. Structurally, these nodules appeared to develop like wild-type nodules up to the stage where N2-fixation would normally begin. These results support the proposal that NAD+ malic enzyme, together with pyruvate dehydrogenase, functions in the generation of acetyl-CoA required for TCA cycle function in N2-fixing bacteroids which metabolize C4-dicarboxylic acids supplied by the plant. 相似文献

The human mitochondrial NAD(P)+-dependent malic enzyme (m-NAD-ME) is a malic enzyme isoform with dual cofactor specificity and substrate binding cooperativity. Previous kinetic studies have suggested that Lys362 in the pigeon cytosolic NADP+-dependent malic enzyme has remarkable effects on the binding of NADP+ to the enzyme and on the catalytic power of the enzyme (Kuo, C. C., Tsai, L. C., Chin, T. Y., Chang, G.-G., and Chou, W. Y. (2000) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 270, 821-825). In this study, we investigate the important role of Gln362 in the transformation of cofactor specificity from NAD+ to NADP+ in human m-NAD-ME. Our kinetic data clearly indicate that the Q362K mutant shifted its cofactor preference from NAD+ to NADP+. The Km(NADP) and kcat(NADP) values for this mutant were reduced by 4-6-fold and increased by 5-10-fold, respectively, compared with those for the wild-type enzyme. Furthermore, up to a 2-fold reduction in Km(NADP)/Km(NAD) and elevation of kcat(NADP)/kcat(NAD) were observed for the Q362K enzyme. Mutation of Gln362 to Ala or Asn did not shift its cofactor preference. The Km(NADP)/Km(NAD) and kcat(NADP)/kcat(NAD) values for Q362A and Q362N were comparable with those for the wild-type enzyme. The DeltaG values for Q362A and Q362N with either NAD+ or NADP+ were positive, indicating that substitution of Gln with Ala or Asn at position 362 brings about unfavorable cofactor binding at the active site and thus significantly reduces the catalytic efficiency. Our data also indicate that the cooperative binding of malate became insignificant in human m-NAD-ME upon mutation of Gln362 to Lys because the sigmoidal phenomenon appearing in the wild-type enzyme was much less obvious that that in Q362K. Therefore, mutation of Gln362 to Lys in human m-NAD-ME alters its kinetic properties of cofactor preference, malate binding cooperativity, and allosteric regulation by fumarate. However, the other Gln362 mutants, Q362A and Q362N, have conserved malate binding cooperativity and NAD+ specificity. In this study, we provide clear evidence that the single mutation of Gln362 to Lys in human m-NAD-ME changes it to an NADP+-dependent enzyme, which is characteristic because it is non-allosteric, non-cooperative, and NADP+-specific. 相似文献

The NAD(P)-dependent malic enzyme from human term placental mitochondria was purified 108-fold with a final yield of 72% and specific activity of about 2 mumol per minute per milligram protein. The final preparation was completely free of fumarase, malic, and lactic dehydrogenases. Divalent cations were required for NAD(P)-dependent malic enzyme activity, Mn2+ and Co2+ were by far more effective activators than Mg2+ and Ni2+, whereas the reaction did not proceed in the presence of Ca2+. The optimum pH with NAD and NADP as coenzymes was at around 7.1 and 6.4, respectively. The ratio of the rate of NAD:NADP reduction was 7.4 and 1.3 at pH 7.1 and 6.4, respectively. The enzyme is activated by succinate and fumarate and inhibited by ATP. In the absence of fumarate the Michaelis constants for L-malate and NAD were 2.82 and 0.33 mM; and in the presence of fumarate 1.18 and 0.22 mM, respectively. This study presents the first report showing the purification and kinetic properties of NAD(P)-dependent malic enzyme from human tissue. 相似文献

Rat and calf adrenal cortex homogenates were found to contain three different malic enzymes. Two were strictly NADP+-dependent and were localized, one each, in the cytosol and the mitochondrial fractions, respectively. These two enzymes appear to be identical to those described by Simpson and Estabrook (Simpson, E. R., and Estabrook, R. W. (1969) Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 129, 384-395). The third was NAD(P)+-linked and was present in the mitochondrial fraction only. All three malic enzymes separated as distinct bands during electrophoresis on 5 percent polyacrylamide slab gels at pH 9.0. Marker enzymes and the mitochondrial malic enzymes migrated together in intact mitochondria during sucrose density gradient centrifugations despite changes in the equilibrium position of the mitochondria promoted by energy-dependent calcium phosphate accumulation. In adrenal cortex mitochondria subfractionated by the method of Sottocasa et al. (SOTTOCASA, G.L., KUYLENSTIERNA, B., ERNSTER, L., and BERGSTAND, A. (1967) J. Cell Biol. 32, 415-438), both malic enzymes were associated with the inner membrane-matrix space. Sonication solubilized the two malic enzymes along with the matrix space marker enzymes. The NAD(P)+-dependent malic enzyme was purified 100-fold from calf adrenal cortex mitochondria. The final preparation was free of malic dehydrogenase, fumarase, the strictly NADP+-linked malic enzyme and adenylate kinase. Either Mn24 orMg2+ was required for activity and 1 mol of pyruvate was formed for each mole of NAD+ and NADP+ reduced. The pH optima with NAD+ and NADP+ were 6.5 tp 7.0 and 6.0 to 6.5, respectively. Michaelis-Menten kinetics were observed on the alkaline side. Fumarate, succinate, and isocitrate were positive and ATP and ADP were negative modulators of the regulatory enzyme. The modulators did not influence the stoichiometry and they were not metabolized during the reaction. Under Vmax conditions the ratios for the rate of NAD+:NADP+ reduction were 1.76 and 1.15 at pH 7.4 and 6.0, respectively. The apparent Michaelis constants also differed depending on the pH and the coenzyme. At pH 7.4 (in the presence of 5 mM fumarate) and at pH 6.0 (no fumarate) the Km values for (-)-malate, NAD+, and Mn2+ were 1.7, 0.16, and 0.15 mM, and 0.31, 0.06, and 0.09 mM, respectively. At pH 7.4 (5MM fumarate) and pH 6.0 (no fumarate), the Km values for (-)-malate, NADP+, and Mn2+ were 6.5, 0.62, and 0.59 mM, and 0.68. 0.12, and 0.31 mM, respectively. The apparent Ki values for ATP with NAD+ and NADP+ as coenzyme were 0.42 and 0.27 mM, respectively. 相似文献

The structural requirements of the NADP+ molecule as a coenzyme in the oxidative decarboxylation reaction catalysed by pigeon liver malic enzyme were studied by kinetic and fluorimetric analyses with various NADP+ analogues and fragments. The substrate L-malate had little effect on the nucleotide binding. Etheno-NADP+, 3-acetylpyridine-adenine dinucleotide phosphate, and nicotinamide-hypoxanthine dinucleotide phosphate act as alternative coenzymes for the enzyme. Their kinetic parameters were similar to that of NADP+. Thionicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide phosphate, 3-aminopyridine-adenine dinucleotide phosphate, 5'-adenylyl imidodiphosphate, nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide 3'-phosphate and NAD+ act as inhibitors for the enzyme. The first two were competitive with respect to NADP+ and non-competitive with respect to L-malate; the other inhibitors were non-competitive with NADP+. All NADP+ fragments were inhibitory to the enzyme, with a wide range of affinity, depending on the presence or absence of a 2'-phosphate group. Compounds with this group bind to the enzyme 2-3 orders of magnitude more tightly than those without this group. Only compounds with this group were competitive inhibitors with respect to NADP+. We conclude that the 2'-phosphate group is crucial for the nucleotide binding of this enzyme, whereas the carboxyamide carbonyl group of the nicotinamide moiety is important for the coenzyme activity. There is a strong synergistic effect between the binding of the nicotinamide and adenosine moieties of the nucleotide molecule. 相似文献

Cell-free extract supernatant fluids of Pseudomonas aeruginosa were shown to lack malic dehydrogenase but possess a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD)- or NAD phosphate (NADP)-dependent enzymatic activity, with properties suggesting a malic enzyme (malate + NAD (NADP) --> pyruvate + reduced NAD (NADH) (reduced NADP [NADPH] + CO(2)), in agreement with earlier findings. This was confirmed by determining the nature and stoichiometry of the reaction products. Differences in heat stability and partial purification of these activities demonstrated the existence of two malic enzymes, one specific for NAD and the other for NADP. Both enzymes require bivalent metal cations for activity, Mn(2+) being more effective than Mg(2+). The NADP-dependent enzyme is activated by K(+) and low concentrations of NH(4) (+). Both reactions are reversible, as shown by incubation with pyruvate, CO(2), NADH, or NADPH and Mn(2+). The molecular weights of the enzymes were estimated by gel filtration (270,000 for the NAD enzyme and 68,000 for the NADP enzyme) and by sucrose density gradient centrifugation (about 200,000 and 90,000, respectively). 相似文献

Two of the three metabolic subtypes of species utilizing C4-pathway photosynthesis are defined by high activities of either NADP malic enzyme (NADP malic enzyme type) or a coenzyme A (CoA)- and acetyl-CoA-activated NAD malic enzyme (NAD malic enzyme type). These enzymes function to decarboxylate malate as an integral part of the photosynthetic process. Leaves of NADP malic enzyme-type species also contain significant NAD-dependent malic enzyme activity. The purpose of the present study was to examine the nature and photosynthetic role of this activity. With Zea mays, this NAD-dependent activity was found to vary widely in fresh leaf extracts. Incubating extracts at 25 °C resulted in a disproportionate increase in NAD activity so that the final ratio of NADP to NAD activity was always about 5. Strong evidence was provided that the NADP and NAD malic enzyme activities in Z. mays extracts were catalyzed by the same enzyme. These activities remained associated during purification and were coincident after polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The pH optimum for NAD-dependent activity was about 7.1, compared with 8.3 for NADP malic enzyme activity. Other properties of the NAD-dependent activity are described, a particularly notable feature being the inhibition of this activity by less than 1 μm NADP and NADPH. Evidence is provided that the NADP malic enzyme of several other NADP malic enzyme-type C4 species also has associated activity toward NAD. We concluded that the NAD-dependent malic enzyme activity would have no significant function in photosynthesis. 相似文献

Bisubstrate inhibitors, obtained by covalently linking 2-oxoglutarate with NAD+ and NADP+, were synthesized and tested for their ability to inhibit NAD+- and NADP+-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenases from pig heart mitochondria. The NADP+-dependent enzyme was specifically inhibited by the NADP oxoglutarate adduct and not by the NAD adduct. The NADP adduct was competitive with both coenzyme and substrate, isocitrate. In contrast, the NAD+-dependent enzyme was inhibited by both adducts. NAD oxoglutarate is competitive with both NAD+ and isocitrate while the NADP adduct is competitive with isocitrate but not with NAD+. Nevertheless conditions could be set up so that use of these inhibitors would be feasible for a metabolic study. 相似文献

The soybean NRAMP homologue,GmDMT1, is a symbiotic divalent metal transporter capable of ferrous iron transport 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Iron is an important nutrient in N2-fixing legume root nodules. Iron supplied to the nodule is used by the plant for the synthesis of leghemoglobin, while in the bacteroid fraction, it is used as an essential cofactor for the bacterial N2-fixing enzyme, nitrogenase, and iron-containing proteins of the electron transport chain. The supply of iron to the bacteroids requires initial transport across the plant-derived peribacteroid membrane, which physically separates bacteroids from the infected plant cell cytosol. In this study, we have identified Glycine max divalent metal transporter 1 (GmDmt1), a soybean homologue of the NRAMP/Dmt1 family of divalent metal ion transporters. GmDmt1 shows enhanced expression in soybean root nodules and is most highly expressed at the onset of nitrogen fixation in developing nodules. Antibodies raised against a partial fragment of GmDmt1 confirmed its presence on the peribacteroid membrane (PBM) of soybean root nodules. GmDmt1 was able to both rescue growth and enhance 55Fe(II) uptake in the ferrous iron transport deficient yeast strain (fet3fet4). The results indicate that GmDmt1 is a nodule-enhanced transporter capable of ferrous iron transport across the PBM of soybean root nodules. Its role in nodule iron homeostasis to support bacterial nitrogen fixation is discussed. 相似文献

Enzymatic regulation of pyricline nucleotide formation, under symbiotic and non-symbiotic conditions, was analyzed using soybeans (Glycine max L. cv. 'Akisengoku') and rhizobia (Bradyrhizobia japonicum strain A1017), respectively. It was found that levels of pyridine nucleotides in bacteroids in root nodules were different from those in free-living cells of rhizobia. This difference was associated with differences in activities of enzymes involved in the pathway from L-tryptophan to NAD and NADP. That is, these activities were lower in bacteroids than in free-living bacteria and lower in the nodule cytosol than in root extracts. The optimum pH for NAD synthetase in bacteroids, was 9.0. Additionally, the optimum pH for ATP-nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) adenyltransferase, final step enzyme in NAD formation, was estimated to be 7.6. In the bacteroid fraction, the K(m) of NAD synthetase (22 microM) was approximately 1/22 of that of ATP-NMN adenyltransferase (482 microM). Vmax values were estimated to be almost in the same order for both NAD synthetase and ATP-NMN adenyltransferase. This is the first report on the formation of pyridine nucleotides originating from L-tryptophan in bacteroids in soybean nodules and free-living bacteria. 相似文献

Complete reversal of coenzyme specificity of xylitol dehydrogenase and increase of thermostability by the introduction of structural zinc 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11
Pichia stipitis NAD(+)-dependent xylitol dehydrogenase (XDH), a medium-chain dehydrogenase/reductase, is one of the key enzymes in ethanol fermentation from xylose. For the construction of an efficient biomass-ethanol conversion system, we focused on the two areas of XDH, 1) change of coenzyme specificity from NAD(+) to NADP(+) and 2) thermostabilization by introducing an additional zinc atom. Site-directed mutagenesis was used to examine the roles of Asp(207), Ile(208), Phe(209), and Asn(211) in the discrimination between NAD(+) and NADP(+). Single mutants (D207A, I208R, F209S, and N211R) improved 5 approximately 48-fold in catalytic efficiency (k(cat)/K(m)) with NADP(+) compared with the wild type but retained substantial activity with NAD(+). The double mutants (D207A/I208R and D207A/F209S) improved by 3 orders of magnitude in k(cat)/K(m) with NADP(+), but they still preferred NAD(+) to NADP(+). The triple mutant (D207A/I208R/F209S) and quadruple mutant (D207A/I208R/F209S/N211R) showed more than 4500-fold higher values in k(cat)/K(m) with NADP(+) than the wild-type enzyme, reaching values comparable with k(cat)/K(m) with NAD(+) of the wild-type enzyme. Because most NADP(+)-dependent XDH mutants constructed in this study decreased the thermostability compared with the wild-type enzyme, we attempted to improve the thermostability of XDH mutants by the introduction of an additional zinc atom. The introduction of three cysteine residues in wild-type XDH gave an additional zinc-binding site and improved the thermostability. The introduction of this mutation in D207A/I208R/F209S and D207A/I208R/F209S/N211R mutants increased the thermostability and further increased the catalytic activity with NADP(+). 相似文献

NAD+-dependent 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase (15-PGDH), a member of the short chain dehydrogenase/reductase (SDR) family, is responsible for the biological inactivation of prostaglandins. Sequence alignment within SDR coupled with molecular modeling analysis has suggested that Gln-15, Asp-36, and Trp-37 of 15-PGDH may determine the coenzyme specificity of this enzyme. Site-directed mutagenesis was used to examine the important roles of these residues. Several single mutants (Q15K, Q15R, W37K, and W37R), double mutants (Q15K-W37K, Q15K-W37R, Q15R-W37K, and Q15R-W37R), and triple mutants (Q15K-D36A-W37R and Q15K-D36S-W37R) were prepared and expressed as glutathione S-transferase (GST) fusion proteins in Escherichia coli and purified by GSH-agarose affinity chromatography. Mutants Q15K, Q15R, W37K, W37R, Q15K-W37K, and Q15R-W37K were found to be inactive or almost inactive with NADP+ but still retained substantial activity with NAD+. Mutant Q15K-W37R and mutant Q15R-W37R showed comparable activity for NAD+ and NADP+ with an increase in activity nearly 3-fold over that of the wild type. However, approximately 30-fold higher in K(m) for NADP+ than that of the wild type enzyme for NAD+ was found for mutants Q15K-W37R and Q15R-W37R. Similarly, the K(m) values for PGE(2) of mutants were also shown to increase over that of the wild type. Further mutation of Asp-36 to either an alanine or a serine of the double mutant Q15K-W37R (i.e., triple mutants Q15K-D36A-W37R and Q15K-D36S-W37R) rendered the mutants exhibiting exclusive activity with NADP+ but not with NAD+. The triple mutants showed a decrease in K(m) for NADP+ but an increase in K(m) for PGE(2). Further mutation at Ala-14 to a serine of a triple mutant (Q15K-D36S-W37R) decreased the K(m) values for both NADP+ and PGE(2) to levels comparable to those of the wild type. These results indicate that the coenzyme specificity of 15-PGDH can be altered from NAD+ to NADP+ by changing a few critical residues near the N-terminal end. 相似文献

The fatty aldehyde dehydrogenase from the luminescent bacterium, Vibrio harveyi (Vh-ALDH), is unique with respect to its high specificity for NADP(+) over NAD(+). By mutation of a single threonine residue (Thr175) immediately downstream of the beta(B) strand in the Rossmann fold, the nucleotide specificity of Vh-ALDH has been changed from NADP(+) to NAD(+). Replacement of Thr175 by a negatively charged residue (Asp or Glu) resulted in an increase in k(cat)/K(m) for NAD(+) relative to that for NADP(+) of up to 5000-fold due to a decrease for NAD(+) and an increase for NADP(+) in their respective Michaelis constants (K(a)). Differential protection by NAD(+) and NADP(+) against thermal inactivation and comparison of the dissociation constants of NMN, 2'-AMP, 2'5'-ADP, and 5'-AMP for these mutants and the wild-type enzyme clearly support the change in nucleotide specificity. Moreover, replacement of Thr175 with polar residues (N, S, or Q) demonstrated that a more efficient NAD(+)-dependent enzyme T175Q could be created without loss of NADP(+)-dependent activity. Analysis of the three-dimensional structure of Vh-ALDH with bound NADP(+) showed that the hydroxyl group of Thr175 forms a hydrogen bond to the 2'-phosphate of NADP(+). Replacement with glutamic acid or glutamine strengthened interactions with NAD(+) and indicated why threonine would be the preferred polar residue at the nucleotide recognition site in NADP(+)-specific aldehyde dehydrogenases. These results have shown that the size and the structure of the residue at the nucleotide recognition site play the key roles in differentiating between NAD(+) and NADP(+) interactions while the presence of a negative charge is responsible for the decrease in interactions with NADP(+) in Vh-ALDH. 相似文献

Mitochondria isolated from the heart of the Baltic salmon trout Salmo trutta contain two distinct malic enzymes. One of these enzymes (NAD-preferring malic enzyme) catalyses the oxidative decarboxylation of malate in the presence of either NAD or NADP. The specific activity with NAD was six times that with NADP as coenzyme. The second enzyme is specific for NADP. These two malic enzymes have been separated by: ion exchange chromatography of DEAE-Sephacel, affinity chromatography on 2',5'ADP-Sepharose 4B, gel filtration on Sephacryl S-300 and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The mol. wts of the two native malic enzymes determined by gel filtration were found to be 280,000 and 190,000 for NAD-preferring and NADP-specific malic enzyme, respectively. Chromatofocusing revealed the isoelectric points of the two enzymes at pH 5.45 and 5.85 for NAD-preferring and NADP-specific malic enzyme, respectively. 相似文献

A phosphate-stimulated NAD(P)+-dependent glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase in Bacillus cereus
Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), a key enzyme of central carbon metabolism, was studied in a Bacillus cereus strain isolated from the phosphate layer from Morocco. Enzymatic assays with cell extracts demonstrated that when grown on Luria-Bertani (LB) medium, B. cereus contains a major NAD+-dependent GAPDH activity and only traces of NADP+-dependent activity, but in cells grown on Pi-supplemented LB medium a strong increase of the NADP+-dependent activity, that became predominant, occurs concurrently with a GAPDH protein increase. Our results show that B. cereus possesses two GAPDH activities, namely NAD+- and NADP+-dependent, catalyzed by two enzymes with distinct coenzyme specificity and different phosphate regulation patterns. The finding of a phosphate-stimulated NADP+-dependent GAPDH in B. cereus indicates that this bacterium can modulate its primary carbon metabolism according to phosphate availability. 相似文献

An oxidized nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate/oxidized nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADP+/NAD+) nonspecific L-glutamate dehydrogenase from Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron was purified 40-fold (NADP+ or NAD+ activity) over crude cell extract by heat treatment, (NH4)2SO2 fractionation, diethylaminoethyl-cellulose, Bio-Gel A 1.5m, and hydroxylapatite chromatography. Both NADP+- and NAD+-dependent activities coeluted from all chromatographic treatments. Moreover, a constant ratio of NADP+/NAD+ specific activities was demonstrated at each purification step. Both activities also comigrated in 6% nondenaturing polyacrylamide gels. Affinity chromatography of the 40-fold-purified enzyme using Procion RED HE-3B gave a preparation containing both NADP+- and NAD+-linked activities which showed a single protein band of 48,5000 molecular weight after sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gradient gel electrophoresis. The dual pyridine nucleotide nature of the enzyme was most readily apparent in the oxidative direction. Reductively, the enzyme was 30-fold more active with reduced NADP than with reduced NAD. Nonlinear concave 1/V versus 1/S plots were observed for reduced NADP and NH4Cl. Salts (0.1 M) stimulated the NADP+-linked reaction, inhibited the NAD+-linked reaction, and had little effect on the reduced NADP-dependent reaction. The stimulatory effect of salts (NADP+) was nonspecific, regardless of the anion or cation, whereas the degree of NAD+-linked inhibition decreased in the order to I- greater than Br- greater than Cl- greater than F-. Both NADP+ and NAD+ glutamate dehydrogenase activities were also detected in cell extracts from representative strains of other bacteroides deoxyribonucleic acid homology groups. 相似文献
