Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PD) is the first enzyme in the pentose phosphate pathway. Cadmium is a toxic heavy metal that inhibits several enzymes. Zinc is an essential metal but overdoses of zinc have toxic effects on enzyme activities. In this study G-6-PD from lamb kidney cortex was competitively inhibited by zinc both with respect to glucose-6-phosphate (G-6-P) and NADP+ with Ki values of 1.066 +/- 0.106 and 0.111 +/- 0.007 mM respectively whereas cadmium was a non-competitive inhibitor with respect to both G-6-P and NADP+ Ki values of 2.028 +/- 0.175 and 2.044 +/- 0.289 mM respectively.  相似文献

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.49) from spinach chloroplasts is strongly affected by interactions between Mg2+, proton, and substrate concentrations. Mg2+ activates the enzyme to different degrees; however, it is not essential for enzyme activity. The Mg2+-dependent activation follows a maximum curve, magnitude and position of the maximum being dependent on pH and NADPH/NADP+ ratios. At a ratio of zero and pH 7.2, maximum activity is observed at 10 mM Mg2+. Increasing the NADPH/NADP+ ratio up to 1.7 (a ratio measured in the stroma during a light period), maximum activity is shifted to much lower Mg2+ concentrations. At pH 8.2 (corresponding to the pH of the stroma in the light) and at a high NADPH/NADP+ ratio, enzyme activity is not affected by the Mg2+ ion. The results are discussed in relation to dark-light-dark regulation of the oxidative pentose phosphate cycle in spinach chloroplasts.Abbreviations DTT dithiothreitol - G-6-P glucose-6-phosphate - G-6-PDH glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.49) - PPC pentose phosphate cycle  相似文献

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PD) is one of the important enzymes, which is responsible for the production of NADPH and ribose-5-phosphate. NADPH is used for the biosynthetic reactions and protection of the cells from free radicals. We have investigated some properties and kinetic mechanism of the sheep kidney cortex G-6-PD. This enzyme has been purified 1,384-fold with a yield of 16.96% and had a specific activity of 27.69 U/mg protein. The purification procedure consists of 2', 5'-ADP-Sepharose 4B affinity chromatography after ultracentrifugation. The sheep kidney cortex G-6-PD was found to operate according to a Ping Pong Bi Bi mechanism. The kinetic parameters from sheep K(m) values for G-6-P and NADP(+) and V(m) were determined to be 0.041+/-0.0043 mM, 0.0147+/-0.001 mM and 28.23+/-0.86 microMol min(-1) mg protein(-1), respectively. The pH optimum was 7.4 and the optimum temperature was 45 degrees C. In our previous study we have found that lamb kidney cortex G-6-PD enzyme obeys 'Ordered Bi Bi' mechanism. We suggest that kinetic mechanism altered due to the aging since sheep G-6-PD uses a 'ping pong' mechanism.  相似文献

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase in a yeast, Hansenula mrakii IFO 0895 is induced when the cells are cultured in a medium containing lipid hydroperoxide. The enzyme was purified from H. mrakii to the homogeneous state on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The molecular weight of the purified enzyme was estimated to be approximately 52kDa by SDS-PAGE and 130 kDa by Sephadex G-150column chromatography, respectively. The enzyme was specific to glucose-6-phosphate and NADP+, and Kmvalues for glucose-6-phosphate and NADP+ were 293µM and 24.1 µM, respectively. The enzyme activity was inhibited by diethylpyrocarbonate and 2, 4, 6-trinitrobenzene sulfonate, and by metal ions such as Zn2 +, Cd2 +, Cu2 +, and Al3 + . tert-Butyl hydroperoxide, a kind of lipid hydroperoxide, slightly(approximately 20%) increased the enzyme activity.  相似文献

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenases (G6PDs) are important enzymes widely used in bioassay and biocatalysis. In this study, we reported the cloning, expression, and enzymatic characterization of G6PDs from the thermophilic bacterium Thermoanaerobacter tengcongensis MB4 (TtG6PD). SDS-PAGE showed that purified recombinant enzyme had an apparent subunit molecular weight of 60 kDa. Kinetics assay indicated that TtG6PD preferred NADP+ (k cat/K m = 2618 mM?1 s?1, k cat = 249 s?1, K m = 0.10 ± 0.01 mM) as cofactor, although NAD+ (k cat/K m = 138 mM?1 s?1, k cat = 604 s?1, K m = 4.37 ± 0.56 mM) could also be accepted. The K m values of glucose-6-phosphate were 0.27 ± 0.07 mM and 5.08 ± 0.68 mM with NADP+ and NAD+ as cofactors, respectively. The enzyme displayed its optimum activity at pH 6.8–9.0 for NADP+ and at pH 7.0–8.6 for NAD+ while the optimal temperature was 80 °C for NADP+ and 70 °C for NAD+. This was the first observation that the NADP+-linked optimal temperature of a dual coenzyme-specific G6PD was higher than the NAD+-linked and growth (75 °C) optimal temperature, which suggested G6PD might contribute to the thermal resistance of a bacterium. The potential of TtG6PD to measure the activity of another thermophilic enzyme was demonstrated by the coupled assays for a thermophilic glucokinase.  相似文献

Two anodic isoenzymes of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH) were isolated from tobacco suspension culture WR-132, utilizing fractional ammonium sulfate precipitation and DEAE-cellulose chromatography. The pH optimum was 9.0 for isoenzyme G6PDH I and 8.0–8.3 for G6PDH IV. Isoenzyme G6PDH I exhibited Michaelis-Menten kinetics for both substrates, G6P and NADP+, with Km's of 0.22 mM and 0.06 mM, respectively. G6PDH IV exhibited Michaelis-Menten kinetics for G6P with a Km of 0.31 mM. The NADP+ double reciprocal plot showed an abrupt transition between two linear sections. This transition corresponds to an abrupt increase in the apparent Km and Vmax values with increasing NADP+, denoting negative cooperativity. The two Km's for high and low NADP+ concentrations were 0.06 mM and 0.015 mM, respectively. MWs of the isoenzymes as determined by SDS disc gel electrophoresis were 85 000–91 000 for G6PDH I and 54 000–59 000 for G6PDH IV. Gel filtration chromatography on Sephadex G-150 showed MW's of 91 000 for G6PDH I and 115 000 for G6PDH IV. A probable dimeric structure for IV is suggested, with two NADP+ binding sites.  相似文献

Phosphon-D (tributyl-2, 4-dichlorobenzylphosphonium chloride), known as an inhibitor of gibberellin biosynthesis, enhances photosynthetic electron transport by up to 200%, with Fe(CN) 6 3- and NADP+ being the electron acceptors. Maximum stimulation is reached at phosphon-D concentrations around 2–5 M. At the same time photosynthetic ATP formation is gradually inhibited. Phosphon-D concentrations over 0.1 mM inhibit electron transport. The uncoupling activity of phosphon-D is manifested by inhibition of noncyclic ATP synthesis and by stimulation of light-induced electron flow. The inhibition of ATP synthesis drastically decreases photosynthetic carbon assimilation in a reconstituted spinach chloroplast system. The two ATP-dependent kinase reactions of the reductive pentose phosphate cycle become the rate-limiting steps. On the other hand a stimulated photoelectron transport increases the NADPH/NADP+ ratio, resulting in a drastic inhibition of chloroplast glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.49), the key enzyme of the oxidative pentose phosphate cycle. When light-induced electron flow is inhibited by high phosphon-D concentrations and the NADPH/NADP+ ratio is low, the light-dependent inhibition of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase is gradually abolished.Abbreviations AMO-1618 2-isopropyl-4-dimethylamino-5-methylphenyl-1-piperidinecarboxylate methyl chloride - B-Nine N-dimethylaminosuccinamic acid - CCC (2-chloroethyl)-trimethylammonium chloride - DCMU 3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1, 1-dimethyl urea - DCPIP dichlorophenolindophenol - G-6-PDH glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase - FBP fructose bisphosphate - F-6-P fructose-6-phosphate - 3-PGA 3-phosphoglyceric acid - Posphon-D tributyl-2,4-dichlorobenzylphosphonium chloride - PMP pentose monophosphates - PPC pentose phosphate cycle - RuBP ribulose bisphosphate - Ru-5-P ribulose-5-phosphate Dedicated to Prof. Dr. Drs.h.c.

In general, eukaryotic glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenases (G6PDHs) are structurally stabilized by NADP+. Here we show by spectrofluorometric analysis, thermal and urea denaturation, and trypsin proteolysis, that a different mechanism stabilizes the enzyme from Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PaG6PDH) (EC 1.1.1.363). The spectrofluorometric analysis of the emission of 8-anilino-1-naphthalenesulfonic acid (ANS) indicates that this stabilization is the result of a structural change in the enzyme caused by G6P. The similarity between the Kd values determined for the PaG6PDH-G6P complex (78.0 ± 7.9 μM) and the K0.5 values determined for G6P (57.9 ± 2.5 and 104.5 ± 9.3 μM in the NADP+- and NAD+-dependent reactions, respectively) suggests that the structural changes are the result of G6P binding to the active site of PaG6PDH. Modeling of PaG6PDH indicated the residues that potentially bind the ligand. These results and a phylogenetic analysis of the amino acid sequences of forty-four G6PDHs, suggest that the stabilization observed for PaG6PDH could be a characteristic that distinguishes this and other G6PDHs that use NAD+ and NADP+ from those that use NADP+ only or preferentially, such as those found in eukaryotes. This characteristic could be related to the metabolic roles these enzymes play in the organisms to which they belong.  相似文献

Summary Two new G-6-PD variants designated G-6-PD Jalisco and G-6-PD Morelia were identified in two unrelated Mexican families. An additional G-6-PD variant was found in each family: G-6-PD trinacria and G-6-PD A-. In both families compound heterozygotes were identified. G-6-PD Jalisco and G-6-PD Morelia belong to Classes 3 and 4, respectively. G-6-PD Morelia is the first variant from its class with a high Km for NADP and a low Ki for NADPH.  相似文献

Summary A new Indian variant of erythrocytic glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PD) has been detected in a Koli male subject during population genetic studies. The enzyme variant is characterized by mild enzyme deficiency, slow electrophoretic mobility, low Km for G-6-P, increased utilization of substrate analogues, heat instability and a normal pH optimum curve. From these results this was considered to be a new variant and was designated G-6-PD Kalyan. The family history and routine hematological studies did not reveal any evidence that the G-6-PD Kalyan is associated with any hematological abnormalities or clinical symptoms.  相似文献

Pyruvate kinase from Propionibacterium shermanii was shown to be activated by glucose-6-phosphate (G-6-P) at non-saturating phosphoenol pyruvate (PEP) concentrations but other glycolytic and hexose monophosphate pathway intermediates and AMP were without effect. Half-maximal activation was obtained at 1 mM G-6-P. The presence of G-6-P decreased both the PEP0.5V and ADP0.5V values and the slope of the Hill plots for both substrates. The enzyme was strongly inhibited by ATP and inorganic phosphate (Pi) at all PEP concentrations. At non-saturating (0.5 mM) PEP, half-maximal inhibition was obtained at 1.8 mM ATP or 1.4 mM Pi. The inhibition by both Pi and ATP was largely overcome by 4 mM G-6-P. The specific activity of pyruvate kinase was considerably higher in lactate-, glucose- and glycerol-grown cultures than that of the enzyme catalysing the reverse reaction, pyruvate, phosphate dikinase. It is suggested that the activity of pyruvate kinase in vivo is determined by the balance between activators and inhibitors such that it is inhibited during gluconeogenesis while, during glycolysis, the inhibition is relieved by G-6-P.Abbreviations PEP phosphoenolpyruvate - G-6-P glucose-6-phosphate - Pi inorganic phosphate  相似文献

The capacity of the oxidative pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) in the heart is limited, since the activity of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PD), the first and regulating enzyme of this pathway, is very low. Two mechanisms are involved in the regulation of this pathway. Under normal conditions, G-6-PD is inhibited by NADPH. This can be overcome in the isolated perfused rat heart by increasing the oxidized glutathione and by elevating the NADP+/NADPH ratio. Besides this rapid control mechanism, there is a long-term regulation which involves the synthesis of G-6-PD. The activity of G-6-PD was elevated in the rat heart during the development of cardiac hypertrophy due to constriction of the abdominal aorta and in the non-ischemic part of the rat heart subsequent to myocardial infarction. The catecholamines isoproterenol and norepinephrine stimulated the activity of myocardial G-6-PD in a time- and dose-dependent manner. The isoproterenol-induced stimulation was cAMP-dependent and due to increased new synthesis of enzyme protein. The G-6-PD mRNA was elevated by norepinephrine. As a consequence of the stimulation of the oxidative PPP, the available pool of 5-phosphoribosyl-l-pyrophosphate (PRPP) was expanded. PRPP is an important precursor substrate for purine and pyrimidine nucleotide synthesis. The limiting step in the oxidative PPP, the G-6-PD reaction, can be bypassed with ribose. This leads to an elevation of the cardiac PRPP pool. The decline in ATP that is induced in many pathophysiological conditions was attenuated or even entirely prevented by i.v. infusion of ribose. In two in vivo rat models, the overloaded and catecholamine-stimulated heart and the infarcted heart, the normalization of the cardiac adenine nucleotide pool by ribose was accompanied by an improvement of global heart function. Combination of ribose with adenine or inosine in isoproterenol-treated rats was more effective to restore completely the cardiac ATP level within a short period of time than either intervention alone.

Equilibrium dialysis indicates that rat liver glucose-6-P dehydrogenase binds two molecules of NADP+ per subunit with a dissociation constant of 0.6 × 10?6 M. The NADP+ free enzyme will not bind glucose-6-P indicating a compulsory order of substrate binding. Development of an isotopic assay allowed a direct measurement of the effect of physiological alterations in the NADP+/NADPH ratio on the activity of glucose-6-P and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenases. A combination of enzyme induction and altered NADP+/NADPH ratios could produce 30–50 fold changes in the capacity of these enzymes to produce NADPH during alterations in the nutritional state of the animal.  相似文献

Kinetic and electrophoretic properties were studied in 230--300 fold purified preparations of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PD) from red cells of donors and patients with hemolytic anemia induced by G-6-PD deficiency. In abnormal variant of G-6-PD isolated from red cells of a patient with hemolytic anemia which had not before been described in the literature was found. The abnormal variant differs from the normal enzyme by a decreased Michaelis constant for G-6-P and NADP, by increased utilization of substrate-analogues (2-deoxy-G-6-P and deamino NADP in particular), by low heat stability, the character of pH dependence, and by the appearance of one band of G-6-PD activity during electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gel. The isolated abnormal variant of G-6-PD has been called "Kremenchug" according to the origin of the patient.  相似文献

3-Deoxy-D-arabino-heptulosonate-7-phosphate (DAHP) synthase, the first enzyme of the shikimate pathway was isolated from Nocardia mediterranei. It has a molecular weight of approx. 135,000, and four identical subunits, each with a molecular weight of 35,000. The Km values for phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) and D-erythrose 4-phosphate (E-4-P) were 0.4 and 0.25 mM, respectively, and kinetic study showed that LTrp inhibited DAHP synthase activity, but was not competitive with respect to PEP or E-4-P. The enzyme activity was inhibited by excess of E-4-P added in the incubation system. D-ribose 5-phosphate (R-5-P), D-glucose 6-phosphate (G-6-P) or D-sedoheptulose 7-phosphate (Su-7-P) etc. inhibited DAHP synthase in cell-free extract, but on partially purified enzyme no inhibitory effect was detected. The indirect inhibition of R-5-P and other sugar phosphates was considered to be due to the formation of E-4-P catalyzed by the related enzymes present in cell-free extract.  相似文献

The subcellular distribution of NADP+ and NAD+-dependent glucose-6-phosphate and galactose-6-phosphate dehydrogenases were studied in rat liver, heart, brain, and chick brain. Only liver particulate fractions oxidized glucose-6-phosphate and galactose-6-phosphate with either NADP+ or NAD+ as cofactor. While all of the tissues examined had NADP+-dependent glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity, only rat liver and rat brain soluble fractions had NADP+-dependent galactose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity. Rat liver microsomal and rat brain soluble galactose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activities were kinetically different (Km's 0.5 mm and 10 mm, respectively, for galactose-6-phosphate), although their reaction products were both 6-phosphogalactonate. Rat brain subcellular fractions did not oxidize 6-phosphogalactonate with either NADP+ or NAD+ cofactors but phosphatase activities hydrolyzing 6-phosphogalactonate, galactose-6-phosphate and galactose-1-phosphate were found in crude brain homogenates. In addition, galactose-6-phosphate and 6-phosphogalactonate were tested as inhibitors of various enzymes, with largely negative results, except that 6-phosphogalactonate was a competitive inhibitor (Ki = 0.5 mM) of rat brain 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase.  相似文献

The sorbitol-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (S6PDH) is a key enzyme for sorbitol synthesis and plays an important role in the alleviation of salinity stress in plants. Despite the huge significance, the structure and the mode of action of this enzyme are still not known. In the present study, sequence analysis, cloning, expression, activity assays and enzyme kinetics using various substrates (glucose-6-phosphate, sorbitol-6-phosphate and mannose-6-phosphate) were performed to establish the functional role of S6PDH protein from rice (Oryza sativa). For the structural analysis of the protein, a comparative homology model was prepared on the basis of percentage sequence identity and substrate similarity using the crystal structure of human aldose reductase in complex with glucose-6-phosphate and NADP+ (PDB ID: 2ACQ) as a template. Molecular docking was performed for studying the structural details of substrate binding and possible enzyme mechanism. The cloned sequence resulted into an active recombinant protein when expressed into a bacterial expression system. The purified recombinant protein was found to be active with glucose-6-phosphate and sorbitol-6-phosphate; however, activity against mannose-6-phosphate was not found. The K m values for glucose-6-phosphate and sorbitol-6-phosphate were found to be 15.9 ± 0.2 and 7.21 ± 0.5 mM, respectively. A molecular-level analysis of the active site of OsS6PDH provides valuable information about the enzyme mechanism and requisite enantioselectivity for its physiological substrates. Thus, the fundamental studies of structure and function of OsS6PDH could serve as the basis for the future studies of bio-catalytic applications of this enzyme.  相似文献

Abstract

The effect of NADP+ and glucose-6-phosphate (G6P) on the biotransformation of D-xylose to xylitol by cells of Candida guilliermondii permeabilized with surfactant Triton X-100 was evaluated. The experimental runs were performed with 12 g L?1 of permeabilized cells and a reaction medium composed of Tris–HCl buffer (0.1 M pH 7), D-xylose (57 g L?1), and MgCl2.6H2O (5 mM). The levels of NADP+ (from 0.0 to 1.7 mM) and G6P (from 0.00 to 0.17 M) were varied according a 22-full factorial composed design. Under optimized conditions (NADP+ 0.5 mM and 0.05 M G6P), the xylitol volumetric productivity (QP) and yield factor (YP/S) predicted were 1.86 ± 0.03 g L?1 h? 1 and 0.64 ± 0.03 g g?1, respectively. These values were 94% and 19% higher than those obtained with unpermeabilized cells under fermentation conditions (0.97 g L?1 h?1 and 0.53 g g?1, respectively). On the basis of the results, it can be concluded that xylitol production by biotransformation with cells of C. guilliermondii permeabilized with Triton X-100 is a promising alternative to the fermentative process.  相似文献

Summary A quantitative cytochemical assay for NAD+ kinase-like activity in the guinea-pig thyroid gland is described. The NADP+ produced by the activity of the kinase was used to drive the NADP+-dependent enzyme glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase which is endogenous to the tissue. The activity of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase is greatly in excess of that of the kinase and was unaffected by the constituents of the kinase incubation medium (ATP, Mg2+ and NAD+) either alone or in combination. Kinase activity was dependent both on ATP and Mg2+, with maximal activity seen when the Mg-ATP ratio was between 1:1 and 4:1. Free ATP inhibited the activity of the enzyme. Enzyme activity was exhibited over a broad pH range (7–9) with a peak at pH 8.2. The sulphhydryl-blocking agents,p-chloromercuribenzoate, iodoacetate and iodoacetamide (at 1 mM), completely abolished kinase activity but were without effect on glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity.N-ethylmaleimide and citrate (both at 1 mM) had no effect on either kinase or glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activities.  相似文献

The contents of NADP+, NADPH, changes in the activity of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and some questions relating to its regulation in leaf tissues of tobacco plants infected with PVY were studied. The content of NADP+ and the total sum of pyridine nucleotides decreased after inoculation to 15 % and 30 %, respectively, whereas the content of NADPH increased up to the threefold control value. The contents of NADP+, NADPH and Σ(NADPH + NADP+) linearly correlated with the reproduction curve of PVY. The value of the reduction charge RC and the value of the ratio NADPH/NADP+ sharply increased after inoculation up to tenfold and eighteenfold values, respectively, of the healthy control. The activity of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase was markedly increased in virus-infected tissues during the entire experimental period both in crude homogenate and after its partial purification when compared with the values found in healthy control plants. The time courses of the activity curves of both crude and partially purified enzymes were coincident and correlated with the reproduction curve of PVY. The results indicate the involvement of coarse regulation of the activity of the enzyme by its content without the involvement of fine regulation by the ratio NADPH/NADP+ and RC.  相似文献
