A new type of dihydropteridine reductase [EC 1.6.99.10], which is specific for NADPH as the substrate in the reduction of quinonoid-dihydropterin to tetrahydropterin, was purified to homogeneity from bovine liver and human liver. The molecular weight of the enzyme was determined to be 65,000-70,000. The enzyme was composed of two subunits with identical molecular weight of 35,000; the amino terminal residue was determined to be valine. The isoelectric point of the enzyme was 7.05. The physicochemical properties of this enzyme were quite different from those of bovine liver NADH-specific dihydropteridine reductase [EC 1.6.99.7]. NADPH-specific dihydropteridine reductase did not cross-react with an antiserum raised against the NADH-specific dihydropteridine reductase, nor did the latter enzyme react with an antiserum to the former enzyme, indicating that the two enzymes have no common antigenic determinants. NADPH-specific dihydropteridine reductase from human liver was shown to have properties similar to those of the bovine liver enzyme. 相似文献

The presence of urease and NADPH-specific glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) coding plasmid in Bacillus badius was suggested by the loss of enzyme activites with a mitomycin C treatment and by the presence of 3 plasmids in urease-active strains compared to 2 plasmids in urease-negative strains. Furthermore two-dimensional protein gel electrophoresis showed that the urease-positive strains had some additional proteins compared to urease-negative strains. The two common plasmids had a size of 14.7 kb and 5.9 kb. The plasmid that was missing in the urease-negative strains had a size of 44.0 kb. The plasmids were purified and restriction map for AvaI, Bam HI and EcoRI was constructed for each plasmid. Hybridization tests showed that all three plasmids in Bacillus badius were independent entities. 相似文献

Streptomyces fradiae has two chromatographically distinct forms of glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH): one GDH utilizes NAD as coenzyme, the other uses NADP. The intracellular level of both GDHs is strongly regulated by the nitrogen source in the growth medium. NADP-dependent GDH was purified to homogeneity from crude extracts of S. fradiae. The Mr of the native enzyme was determined to be 200,000 by size-exclusion high-performance liquid chromatography whereas after sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis one major band of Mr 49,000 was found, suggesting that the enzyme is a tetramer. The enzyme was highly specific for the substrates 2-oxoglutarate and L-glutamate, and required NADP, which could not be replaced by NAD, as a cofactor. The pH optimum was 9.2 for oxidative deamination of glutamate and 8.4 for reductive amination of 2-oxoglutarate. The Michaelis constants (Km) were 28.6 mM for L-glutamate and 0.12 mM for NADP. Km values for reductive amination were 1.54 mM for 2-oxoglutarate, 0.07 mM for NADPH and 30.8 mM for NH+4. The enzyme activity was significantly reduced by adenine nucleotides, particularly ATP. 相似文献

Human glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH), an enzyme central to the metabolism of glutamate, is known to exist in housekeeping and nerve tissue-specific isoforms encoded by the GLUD1 and GLUD2 genes, respectively. As there is evidence that GDH function in vivo is regulated, and that regulatory mutations of human GDH are associated with metabolic abnormalities, we sought here to characterize further the functional properties of the two human isoenzymes. Each was obtained in recombinant form by expressing the corresponding cDNAs in Sf9 cells and studied with respect to its regulation by endogenous allosteric effectors, such as purine nucleotides and branched chain amino acids. Results showed that L-leucine, at 1.0 mM:, enhanced the activity of the nerve tissue-specific (GLUD2-derived) enzyme by approximately 1,600% and that of the GLUD1-derived GDH by approximately 75%. Concentrations of L-leucine similar to those present in human tissues ( approximately 0.1 mM:) had little effect on either isoenzyme. However, the presence of ADP (10-50 microM:) sensitized the two isoenzymes to L-leucine, permitting substantial enzyme activation at physiologically relevant concentrations of this amino acid. Nonactivated GLUD1 GDH was markedly inhibited by GTP (IC(50) = 0.20 microM:), whereas nonactivated GLUD2 GDH was totally insensitive to this compound (IC(50) > 5,000 microM:). In contrast, GLUD2 GDH activated by ADP and/or L-leucine was amenable to this inhibition, although at substantially higher GTP concentrations than the GLUD1 enzyme. ADP and L-leucine, acting synergistically, modified the cooperativity curves of the two isoenzymes. Kinetic studies revealed significant differences in the K:(m) values obtained for alpha-ketoglutarate and glutamate for the GLUD1- and the GLUD2-derived GDH, with the allosteric activators differentially altering these values. Hence, the activity of the two human GDH is regulated by distinct allosteric mechanisms, and these findings may have implications for the biologic functions of these isoenzymes. 相似文献

Greater than 90% of the original activity of the enzymes remained after modification of histidine residues of glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) isoproteins from bovine brains with diethyl pyrocarbonate (DEPC). This suggests that the DEPC modified histidine residues are not critically involved in the catalysis of the GDH isoproteins. The influence of DEPC modified histidine residue(s) on binding of GTP to GDH isoproteins was investigated by protection studies. These studies showed that inhibition of GDH isoproteins by GTP was protected by preincubation of GDH isoproteins with DEPC. The amount of protection was dependent on the concentration of DEPC. The GTP inhibition was fully protected by preincubation of GDH isoproteins with DEPC at saturating concentrations. These results indicate that the histidine residues may play an important role in the GTP binding on GDH isoproteins. Spectrophotometric studies showed that three histidine residues per enzyme subunit were able to react with DEPC in the absence of GTP, whereas two histidine residues per enzyme subunit interacted with DEPC when the enzymes were preincubated with GTP. These results indicate that one of the histidine residues is involved in the GTP binding domain of GDH isoproteins. The quantitative affinity chromatographic studies showed that the influence of GTP on the binding of GDH isoproteins to DEPC-Sepharose was significantly distinct for the two GDH isoproteins. GDH I was more sensitively affected by GTP than GDH II in the binding affinity for DEPC-Sepharose. ADP, another well-known allosteric regulator, showed no significant changes in the interaction of DEPC with GDH isoproteins. 相似文献

Incubation of glutamate dehydrogenase isoproteins (GDH I and GDH II) from bovine brains with perphenazine resulted in a time-dependent loss of enzyme activity. 2-Oxoglutarate and NADH, separately or together, gave partial but not complete protection against the inhibition. Although there were no detectable differences between GDH I and GDH II in inhibition by perphenazine in the absence of ADP, the sensitivities to the inhibition by the drug were significantly distinct for the two isoproteins in the presence of ADP. Low concentrations of ADP (0.05-0.20 mM) did not interfere with the inhibition of GDH I and GDH II by perphenazine. However, in the presence of high concentrations of ADP (0.5-1.0 mM), inhibitory effects of perphenazine on GDH isoproteins were significantly diminished as determined by enzyme kinetics and quantitative affinity chromatography on perphenazine-Sepharose. GDH I was more sensitively reacted with ADP than GDH II on the inhibition by perphenazine. Since physiological ADP levels can vary from 0.05 to > 1.0 mM depending on the rate of oxidative phosphorylation, our results suggest a possibility that two types of GDHs are differently regulated by the antipsychotic actions of perphenazine depending on the physiological concentrations of ADP. GTP and L-leucine, other well-known allosteric regulators, did not affect the inhibitory actions of perphenazine on bovine brain GDH isoproteins. 相似文献

The CD of GDH–NADH complexes was measured in order to reexamine the binding of coenzyme to GDH. The existence of two distinct Cotton effects associated with two separate NADH binding sites/subunit was confirmed with native, polymerizing and crosslinked, unpolymerizing enzyme. CD titration of the high-affinity NADH sites revealed significant dependence of the optical activity of the bound coenzyme on the state of protein association. Molar ellipticity of bound NADH decreased with the increasing degree of polymerization of GDH. It is suggested that the high-affinity NADH sites are loacted at or near the association interface. Binding of NADH to the low-affinity sites, in the presence of GTP, leads to an inversion of the CD spectrum of GDH–NADH complexes. This inversion is not related to the polymerization of GDH. However, for proper analysis of the CD of NADH bound to the low-affinity sites, a correction for the effect of polymerization on the optical activity of NADH bound to the high-affinity sites is required. 相似文献

The Antarctic psychrotolerant bacterium Psychrobacter sp. TAD1 contains two distinct glutamate dehydrogenases (GDH), each specific for either NADP+ or NAD+. This feature is quite unusual in bacteria, which generally have a single GDH. NADP+-dependent GDH has been purified to homogeneity and the gene encoding GDH has been cloned and expressed. The enzyme has a hexameric structure. The amino acid sequence determined by peptide and gene analyses comprises 447 residues, yielding a protein with a molecular mass of 49 285 Da. The sequence shows homology with hexameric GDHs, with identity levels of 52% and 49% with Escherichia coli and Clostridium symbiosum GDH, respectively. The coenzyme-binding fingerprint motif GXGXXG/A (common to all GDHs) has Ser at the last position in this enzyme. The overall hydrophilic character is increased and a five-residue insertion in a loop between two alpha-helices may contribute to the increase in protein flexibility. Psychrobacter sp. TAD1 GDH apparent temperature optimum is shifted towards low temperatures, whereas irreversible heat inactivation occurs at temperatures similar to those of E. coli GDH. The catalytic efficiency in the temperature range 10-30 degrees C is similar or lower than that of E. coli GDH. Unlike E. coli GDH the enzyme exhibits marked positive cooperativity towards 2-oxoglutarate and NADPH. This feature is generally absent in prokaryotic GDHs. These observations suggest a regulatory role for this GDH, the most crucial feature being the structural/functional properties required for fine regulation of activity, rather than the high catalytic efficiency and thermolability encountered in several cold-active enzymes. 相似文献

A study of some properties of L-glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH)in the supernatant and mitochondrial fractions of mung beanhypocotyls failed to reveal any differences between the twoenzymes. GDH in lettuce leaf chloroplasts was solubilized withTriton-X-100 and marked differences in a number of propertieswere found between this enzyme and the one solubilized fromlettuce leaf mitochondria. It was concluded that the mitochondrialand chloroplastic GDH's are distinct enzymes. The small amountof GDH activity detected in isolated lettuce leaf peroxisomescould have been due to adsorption of the enzyme. 相似文献

It has been difficult to determine exactly NADPH-specific dihydropteridine reductase [EC 1.6.99.10] in samples which also contain NADH-specific dihydropteridine reductase [EC 1.6.99.7], because the latter enzyme interferes with the activity measurement of the former. We have devised a method to measure selectively the NADPH-specific reductase in crude extracts of bovine, human and monkey livers by the single radial immunodiffusion method using specific antiserum against the enzyme. This method makes it possible to determine the enzyme amount in 5 microliters of the 3-volume extracts of the livers. The amounts of NADPH-specific dihydropteridine reductase were calculated to be 0.252, 0.296, and 0.583 munits/5 microliter of the extracts of bovine, human, and monkey livers, respectively. 相似文献

l-Gulonate 3-dehydrogenase (GDH) is a bifunctional dimeric protein that functions not only as an NAD+-dependent enzyme in the uronate cycle but also as a taxon-specific λ-crystallin in rabbit lens. Here we report the first crystal structure of GDH in both apo form and NADH-bound holo form. The GDH protomer consists of two structural domains: the N-terminal domain with a Rossmann fold and the C-terminal domain with a novel helical fold. In the N-terminal domain of the NADH-bound structure, we identified 11 coenzyme-binding residues and found 2 distinct side-chain conformers of Ser124, which is a putative coenzyme/substrate-binding residue. A structural comparison between apo form and holo form and a mutagenesis study with E97Q mutant suggest an induced-fit mechanism upon coenzyme binding; coenzyme binding induces a conformational change in the coenzyme-binding residues Glu97 and Ser124 to switch their activation state from resting to active, which is required for the subsequent substrate recruitment. Subunit dimerization is mediated by numerous intersubunit interactions, including 22 hydrogen bonds and 104 residue pairs of van der Waals interactions, of which those between two cognate C-terminal domains are predominant. From a structure/sequence comparison within GDH homologues, a much greater degree of interprotomer interactions (both polar and hydrophobic) in the rabbit GDH would contribute to its higher thermostability, which may be relevant to the other function of this enzyme as λ-crystallin, a constitutive structural protein in rabbit lens. The present crystal structures and amino acid mutagenesis studies assigned the role of active-site residues: catalytic base for His145 and substrate binding for Ser124, Cys125, Asn196, and Arg231. Notably, Arg231 participates in substrate binding from the other subunit of the GDH dimer, indicating the functional significance of the dimeric state. Proper orientation of the substrate-binding residues for catalysis is likely to be maintained by an interprotomer hydrogen-bonding network of residues Asn196, Gln199, and Arg231, suggesting a network-based substrate recognition of GDH. 相似文献

Glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) was purified to homogeneity from cerebellar tissue of three normal subjects and seven patients with four distinct types of degenerative neurological disorders. Nonequilibrium pH gradient gel electrophoresis showed that the purified enzyme consists of four major isoproteins designated GDH 1, 2, 3, and 4. With one exception, the relative abundance and isoelectric points of the GDH isoproteins decrease and the molecular weights increase progressively going from isoprotein 1 to isoprotein 4. The enzyme isolated from the brain of one patient with a variant form of multiple system atrophy displayed marked reduction of GDH isoprotein 1. The Km values of the patients' GDH for alpha-ketoglutarate, glutamate, NADH, and NADPH were significantly increased as compared to GDH obtained from normal and neurologic control subjects. In addition, glutamate levels were reduced markedly in the patient's cerebellum. Pulse-chase studies have shown that both the human hepatoma HepG2 and the human glioma U373 cell lines synthesize exclusively GDH isoprotein 2. The different GDH isoproteins do not have a precursor-product relationship and may represent products of different GDH mRNA species. 相似文献

The constitutive coenzyme non-specific glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) from Chlorella pyrenoidosa 82T was purified to homogeneity by column immunoaffinity chromatography and examined by an electron microscope. The enzyme molecule was found to be a hexameric oligomer composed of monomers arranged in three 2-point group symmetry in two layers slightly twisted round the 3-fold axis. The molecule is 8 +/- 1 nm in diameter and 10 +/- 1 nm in height. The enzyme molecules appear both to dissociate into trimers and to associate along the 3-fold axis forming linear aggregates under certain conditions. A tentative model of the Chlorella GDH molecule is proposed, which is very similar to those described for bovine liver GDH and GDH from Clostridium symbiosum. 相似文献

The catalytic properties of a new type of dihydropteridine reductase, NADPH-specific dihydropteridine reductase [EC 1.6.99.10], from bovine liver, were studied and compared with those of the previously characterized enzyme, NADH-specific dihydropteridine reductase [EC 1.6.99.7]. With quinonoid-dihydro-6-methylpterin, approximate Km values of NADPH-specific dihydropteridine reductase for NADPH and NADH were estimated to be 1.4 micron and 2,900 microns, respectively. The Vmax values were 1.34 mumol/min/mg with NADPH and 1.02 mumol/min/mg with NADPH. With NADPH, the Km values of the enzyme for the quinonoid-dihydro forms of 6-methylpterin and biopterin were 1.4 micron and 6.8 microns, respectively. The enzyme was inhibited by its reaction product, NADP+, in a competitive manner, and the inhibition constant was determined to be 3.2 microns. The enzyme was severely inhibited by L-thyroxine and by 2,6-dichlorophenolindophenol. 相似文献

Glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) enzyme is recently being reported to be present in the nucleus in addition to the mitochondria in a number of organisms. Here we investigated the distribution of GDH in liver and brain tissues of chicken. Polyclonal anti-GDH antibody against bovine GDH was raised by us, which was later shown to be immunereactive to chicken GDH. The nuclear and the mitochondrial extracts from liver and brain tissues of chicken were made as described. By quantitative immunoreactivity, it was revealed that the nuclear GDH expressed in comparable efficiencies in the liver and brain. However, the activity of the brain nuclear GDH was lower than the liver counterparts. The allosteric regulation pattern for the brain nuclear GDH was also different from the other corresponding fractions and it was speculated that the brain nuclear GDH was inactive. The liver and brain nuclear GDH were purified to homogeneity and comparison of specific activities of both the GDH ruled out the existence of any inhibitor in the brain nuclear GDH. It is hypothesized that the inactivation of the brain nuclear GDH in chicken could be due to some already known posttranslational modification. The present report throws light on the differential regulation pattern of GDH enzyme. 相似文献

In a continuing study of the biosynthetic pathway and regulatory mechanisms governing indole-3-acetic acid (auxin) formation, we report the isolation and initial characterization of three distinct indole-3-acetaldehyde reductases from cucumber seedlings. These enzymes catalyze the reduction of indole-3-acetaldehyde to indole-3-ethanol with the concomitant oxidation of NAD(P)H to NAD(P)+. Two of the reductases are specific for NADPH as second substrate, while the third is specific for NADH. The enzymes show a strong specificity for indoleacetaldehyde, with apparent Km values of 73mum, 130mum, and 400mum being calculated for the two NADPH-specific reductases and the NADH-specific reductase, respectively. Under no conditions of substrate concentration, incubation time, or assay method could the reverse reaction be observed. Chromatography on a calibrated Sephadex gel column led to estimated molecualr weights of 52,000 and 17,000 for the NADPH-specific reductases, while a value of 33,000 was obtained for the NADH-specific reductase. Both NADPH-specific reductases showed a pH optimum of 5.2 with a secondary optimum at 7.0, and both enzymes were activated by increasing ionic strength. The NADH-specific reductase showed a pH optimum of 7.0 with a secondary optimum at 6.1 and was slightly inhibited by increasing ionic strength. 相似文献

Abstract: Glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH), an enzyme that is central to the metabolism of glutamate, is present at high levels in the mammalian brain. Studies on human leukocytes and rat brain suggested the presence of two GDH activities differing in thermal stability and allosteric regulation, but molecular biological investigations led to the cloning of two human GDH-specific genes encoding highly homologous polypeptides. The first gene, designated GLUD1, is expressed in all tissues (housekeeping GDH), whereas the second gene, designated GLUD2, is expressed specifically in neural and testicular tissues. In this study, we obtained both GDH isoenzymes in pure form by expressing a GLUD1 cDNA and a GLUD2 cDNA in Sf9 cells and studied their properties. The enzymes generated showed comparable catalytic properties when fully activated by 1 mM ADP. However, in the absence of ADP, the nerve tissue-specific GDH showed only 5% of its maximal activity, compared with ~40% showed by the housekeeping enzyme. Low physiological levels of ADP (0.05–0.25 mM) induced a concentration-dependent enhancement of enzyme activity that was proportionally greater for the nerve tissue GDH (by 550–1,300%) than of the housekeeping enzyme (by 120–150%). Magnesium chloride (1–2 mM) inhibited the nonactivated housekeeping GDH (by 45–64%); this inhibition was reversed almost completely by ADP. In contrast, Mg2+ did not affect the nonstimulated nerve tissue-specific GDH, although the cation prevented much of the allosteric activation of the enzyme at low ADP levels (0.05–0.25 mM). Heat-inactivation experiments revealed that the half-life of the housekeeping and nerve tissue-specific GDH was 3.5 and 0.5 h, respectively. Hence, the nerve tissue-specific GDH is relatively thermolabile and has evolved into a highly regulated enzyme. These allosteric properties may be of importance for regulating brain glutamate fluxes in vivo under changing energy demands. 相似文献

Glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) (EC 1.4.1.3) is a crucial enzyme involved in bridging two metabolic pathways, gating the use
of glutamate for either amino acid metabolism, or carbohydrate metabolism. The present study investigated GDH from tail muscle
of the freshwater crayfish Orconectes virilis exploring changes to kinetic properties, phosphorylation levels and structural stability between two forms of the enzyme
(aerobic control and 20-h severe hypoxic). Evidence indicated that GDH was converted to a high phosphate form under oxygen
limitation. ProQ Diamond phosphoprotein staining showed a 42% higher bound phosphate content on GDH from muscle of severely
hypoxic crayfish compared with the aerobic form, and treatment of this GDH with commercial phosphatase (alkaline phosphatase),
and treatments that stimulated the activities of different endogenous protein phosphatases (stimulating PP1 + PP2A, PP2B,
and PP2C) yielded significant increases in the fold activation by ADP of GDH from both control and severe hypoxic conditions.
By contrast, stimulation of the activities of endogenous protein kinases (AMPK, PKA or CaMK) significantly reduced the ADP
fold activation from control animals. The physiological consequence of severe hypoxia-induced GDH phosphorylation may be to
suppress GDH activity under low oxygen, shutting off this critical bridge point between two metabolic pathways. 相似文献
