Experimental conditions have been elaborated to test for reversibility of the malate dehydrogenase inactivation (E.C.1.1.1.37) after addition of glucose to derepressed yeast cells. Malate dehydrogenase inactivation was shown to be irreversible at all stages of inactivation. In contrast fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase inactivation (E.C.3.1.11) remained reversible for at least 30 min after addition of glucose. Rapid reversible inactivation of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase and irreversible inactivation of malate dehydrogenase were additionally investigated in glycolytic block mutants. Normal inactivation kinetics were observed in mutants without catalytic activity of phosphoglucose isomerase (E.C.5.3.1.9), phosphofructokinase (E.C.2.7.1.11), triosephosphate isomerase (E.C.5.3.1.1) and phosphoglycerate kinase (E.C.2.7.2.3). Hence, neither type of inactivation depended on the accumulation of any glucose metabolite beyond glucose-6-phosphate. Under anaerobic conditions irreversible inactivation was completely abolished in glycolytic block mutants. In contrast rapid reversible inactivation was independent of energy provided by respiration or fermentation. Reversibility of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase inactivation was tested under conditions which prevented irreversible malate dehydrogenase inactivation. In these experiments, fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase inactivation remained reversible for at least 120 min, whereas reversibility was normally restricted to about 30 min. This indicated a common mechanism between the irreversible part of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase inactivation and irreversible malate dehydrogenase inactivation.  相似文献

An electrophoretic method has been devised to investigate the changes in the enzymes and isoenzymes of carbohydrate metabolism, upon adding glucose to derepressed yeast cells. (i) Of the glycolytic enzymes tested, enolase II, pyruvate kinase and pyruvate decarboxylase were markedly increased. This increase was accompanied by an overall increase in glycolytic activity and was prevented by cycloheximide, an inhibitor of protein synthesis. (ii) In contrast, respiratory activity decreased after adding glucose. This decrease was clearly shown to be the result of repression of respiratory enzymes. A rapid decrease within a few minutes of adding glucose, by analogy with the so-called ' Crabtree effect', was not observed in yeast. (iii) The gluconeogenic enzymes, fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase and malate dehydrogenase, which are inactivated after adding glucose, showed no significant changes in electrophoretic mobilities. Hence, there was no evidence of enzyme modifications, which were postulated as initiating degradation. However, it was possible to investigate cytoplasmic and mitochondrial malate dehydrogenase isoenzymes separately. Synthesis of the mitochondrial isoenzyme was repressed, whereas only cytoplasmic malate dehydrogenase was subject to glucose inactivation.  相似文献

The inactivation of the peroxisomal enzyme alcohol oxidase and the cytoplasmic enzymes fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase, malate dehydrogenase and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase was found to occur after addition of glucose to methanol-grown cells of the yeastHansenula polymorpha. The concentration of cyclic AMP increased nearly twofold within 3 min under the same conditions. In crude extracts ofH. polymorpha about 20 proteins are phosphorylated by cyclic AMP dependent protein kinases, among them also fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase. No phosphorylation of the alcohol oxidase protein could be detected. From this fact, it was concluded that the inactivation of the peroxisomal alcohol oxidase is independent of cyclic AMP-dependent protein phosphorylation.  相似文献

Summary Mutants of Saccharomyces cerevisiae with reduced glucose phosphorylation were investigated. They were all recessive and belonged to one gene HEX1, mutant designation hex1. Carbon catabolite repression of alpha-glucosidases, invertase and part of the total malate dehydrogenase was reduced. Repression of the glyoxylate cycle enzymes, isocitrate lyase and malate synthetase, as well as that of gluconeogenetic fructose-1, 6-bisphosphatase was normal. A slight effect on repression of succinate: cytochrome c oxidoreductase and respiration was to be detected. The effect on repression by fructose was much less pronounced but still clear. However, there was a paradoxical effect of hexose concentration with higher concentrations repressing less. Maltose was also less repressing in the mutant. Growth on all sugars degraded via the hexose phosphorylation reaction was reduced and more strongly so at higher concentrations. Intracellular concentrations of glucose-6-phosphate, fructose-6-phosphate and fructose-1,6-bisphosphate were largely the same in mutant and wild type. The only striking difference between mutant and wild type was a fourfold higher intracellular glucose concentration in maltose grown mutants cells. The data obtained do not support the contention that carbon catabolite repression of the enzymes studied is triggered by intracellular hexoses or their metabolites alone. They rather suggest that it is some component of the hexose phosphorylating system that contributes to carbon catabolite repression.  相似文献

The inactivation of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase, isocitrate lyase and cytoplasmic malate dehydrogenase in Candida maltosa was found to occur after the addition of glucose to starved cells. The concentration of cyclic AMP and fructose-2,6-bisphosphate increased drastically within 30 s when glucose was added to the intact cells of this yeast. From these results it was concluded that catabolite inactivation, with participation of cyclic AMP and fructose-2,6-bisphosphate, is an important control mechanism of the gluconeogenetic sequence in the n-alkane-assimilating yeast Candida maltosa, as described for Saccharomyces cerevisiae.  相似文献

Catabolite inactivation of fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase and cytoplasmic malate dehydrogenase was studied using the protease-deficient and vacuole-defective yeast strain pep4-3. The catabolite inactivation of fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase in pep4-3 was found to have a normal first inactivation step but with a defective second proteolytic step. In contrast, catabolite inactivation of cytoplasmic malate dehydrogenase was normal in pep4-3. These results suggest that the proteolytic pathways utilized in the hydrolysis of the two enzymes may be different and that proteolysis of fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase may require functional vacuoles while proteolysis of cytoplasmic malate dehydrogenase may not.  相似文献

The synthesis of isocitrate lyase was induced by the presence of ethanol in the chemostat reaching a specific activity of 200 mU·mg-1 at this induced state. In glucoselimited, derepressed cells, 20 mU·mg-1 were detected and under repressed conditions isocitrate lyase activity was not detected.The sensitivity of gluconeogenic enzymes: cytoplasmic malate dehydrogenase; fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase and isocitrate lyase as well as the mitochondrial enzymes NADH dehydrogenase and succinate cytochrome c oxidase to glucose and galactose repression were studied in chemostat cultures. Our results show that galactose was less effective as a repressor than glucose. Malate dehydrogenase was completely inactivated by glucose, whereas galactose only produced a 78% decrease of specific activity. Fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase and isocitrate lyase were completely inactivated by both sugars but at different rate. Glucose produced an 85% decrease of specific activity of the mitochondrial enzymes whereas galactose only decrease an 67%.  相似文献

The requirement for gluconeogenesis and the pentose phosphate pathway in sporulation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae was investigated using homozygous diploids with mutations in selected portions of the respective metabolic pathways. Mutations affecting the genes FBA1 (fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolase), GPM1 (phosphoglycerate mutase) and ZWF1 (glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase) were used. Homozygous diploids bearing either fba1-11 or gpm1 mutations were asporogenous, indicating an absolute requirement for gluconeogenesis in sporulation. A strain homozygous for the zwf1 mutation sporulated, but at a reduced level compared to the wild-type. Homozygous spd1-1 mutations restored the ability to sporulate in fba1-11 homozygous diploids; this is believed to occur as a consequence of reduced NH+4 levels in spd1-1-bearing strains, the reduced intracellular NH+4 content serving to promote gluconeogenesis via the residual low levels of enzyme activity present in such mutants.  相似文献

An improved system for the in vitro light activation of the chloroplast enzymes fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase and NADP-dependent malate dehydrogenase is described. Through the presence of the monothiol beta-mercaptoethanol in the reaction mixtures the activated forms of the enzymes can be stabilized and their activity determined spectrophotometrically.  相似文献

High hydrostatic pressure enhanced the specific activity of regulatory enzymes of the Benson-Calvin cycle (fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase, glyceraldehyde-3-P dehydrogenase, phosphoribulokinase) which are modulated by the ferredoxin-thioredoxin system. High activity of chloroplast fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase required dithiothreitol, fructose 1,6-bisphosphate, and Ca2+. At 100 bar the A0.5 for fructose 1,6-bisphosphate (0.3 mM) was lower than that at 1 bar (1.5 mM), whereas similar variations of pressure did not alter the A0.5 for Ca2+ (55 microM). The response of chloroplast glyceraldehyde-3-P dehydrogenase exposed to 500 bar was a 4-fold increase in the NADP-linked activity; conversely, the NAD-dependent activity remained unchanged. The concerted action of high pressure and Pi (or ATP), both activators of chloroplast glyceraldehyde-3-P dehydrogenase, led to inactivation. On the other hand, the activity of phosphoribulokinase increased 10-fold when the enzyme was incubated at 1500 bar; the activation process was strictly dependent on the presence of dithiothreitol. At variance with these enzymes, bovine liver fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase, yeast glyceraldehyde-3-P dehydrogenase, and chloroplast ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase, whose activities are not modulated by reduced thioredoxin, were inactivated by high pressure. The comparison of oligomeric enzymes revealed that the stimulation of specific activity by high pressure correlated with thioredoxin-mediated activation, and it did not depend on a particular subunit composition. Present results show that high pressure resembled thioredoxin, cosolvents, and chaotropic anions in its action on regulatory enzymes of the Benson-Calvin cycle. The comparison of physiological and non-physiological modulators suggested that thioredoxin-mediated modifications of noncovalent interactions is an important event in light-dependent regulation of chloroplast enzymes.  相似文献

One fast growing strain of Rhizobium sp (Vigna mungo) VBS 1 was tested for its metabolic activities under carbon starvation. Specific activities of the catabolic enzymes like phosphofructokinase, fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolase, iso-citrate dehydrogenase and malate dehydrogenase decreased remarkably whereas, induction of two anapleurotic enzymes like fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase and iso-citrate lyase took place in the cell-free extract of the strain. Almost unchanged specific activity of the enzyme glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase indicated its key role in maintaining a balance between catabolic and anabolic activities under carbon starvation.  相似文献

Catabolite inactivation of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase, isocitrate lyase, phosphoenolpruvate carboxykinase and malate dehydrogenase in intact cells could be prevented by phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride added 40 min prior to the addition of glucose. Protein synthesis, fermentative and respiratory activity and catabolite repression were not affected. Elimination of catabolite inactivation by the addition of PMSF revealed that catabolite repression started at different times for different enzyme.Abbreviation PMSF phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride  相似文献

The fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase gene was used with multicopy plasmids to study rapid reversible and irreversible inactivation after addition of glucose to derepressed Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells. Both inactivation systems could inactivate the enzyme, even if 20-fold over-expressed. The putative serine residue, at which fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase is phosphorylated, was changed to an alanine residue without notably affecting the catalytic activity. No rapid reversible inactivation was observed with the mutated enzyme. Nonetheless, the modified enzyme was still irreversibly inactivated, clearly demonstrating that phosphorylation is an independent regulatory circuit that reduces fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase activity within seconds. Furthermore, irreversible glucose inactivation was not triggered by phosphorylation of the enzyme.  相似文献

Glucose-induced inactivation of the gluconeogenetic enzymes fructose-1,6-biphosphatase, cytoplasmic malate dehydrogenase and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase was tested in yeast mutants defective in adenylate cyclase (cyr1 mutation) and in the cAMP-binding subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (bcy 1 mutation). In the mutant AM7-11D (cyr1 mutation), glucose-induced cAMP overshoot was absent, and no significant inactivation of the gluconeogenetic enzymes was detected, thus supporting the role of cAMP in the process. Moreover, in the mutant AM9-8B (bcy1 mutation), no cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity was evidenced, and, in addition, a normal inactivation pattern was observed, thus indicating that other mechanisms evoked by glucose might be required in the process. In the double mutant AM7-11DR-4 (cyr1 bcy1 mutations), no inactivating effect was triggered by the sugar: this suggests that cAMP exerts some additional effect on the process, besides the activation of cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Furthermore, in AM7-11D, extracellular cAMP triggered about 50% of inactivation of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase; this effect was largely reversed in acetate medium plus cycloheximide even after 150 min of incubation. However, an extensive and essentially irreversible inactivation was evidenced in the presence of glucose plus cAMP, whereas glucose alone was only slightly effective. Therefore, the reversible effect of cAMP, which probably corresponds to enzyme phosphorylation, seems to be required for the irreversible, probably proteolytic, glucose-stimulated inactivation of this enzyme. Cytoplasmic malate dehydrogenase and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase in AM7-11D were also inactivated by cAMP, and much more by glucose plus cAMP, whereas glucose was practically ineffective. However, reversibility of the effect was not detected, and, in addition, no phosphorylation of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase could be evidenced. Therefore, the sugar quite probably stimulates proteolysis of these enzymes, but the mechanism of cAMP in their degradation has still to be defined.  相似文献

A new over-expression system has been set up for Escherichia coli thioredoxin, yielding 55 mg purified protein/10 g fresh cells. This system has been used to produce thioredoxin modified by site-directed mutagenesis. Taking advantage of the structural and enzymatic similarity between E. coli and spinach m-type thioredoxin, Asp61 of E. coli thioredoxin has been changed into Asn in order to investigate the impact of the suppression of a charged residue on the interaction of thioredoxin with target enzymes. The modification did not significantly alter the structure of the protein. Neither the rate of reduction of insulin and 5,5'-dithio-bis(2-nitrobenzoic acid) by the reduced thioredoxin, nor the reduction by NADPH-dependent thioredoxin reductase, have been modified. The major effect of the mutation was observed for chloroplast enzyme activation with thioredoxin reduced by dithiothreitol and with thioredoxin reduced by ferredoxin-dependent thioredoxin reductase in a light-activation reconstituted chloroplast system. The substitution of the negatively charged Asp61 by the neutral Asn led to an increase in the efficiency of spinach fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase activation by the dithiothreitol-reduced thioredoxin, and to an increase in both spinach fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase and corn NADP-dependent malate dehydrogenase activities in the light-activation system. This suggests that the suppression of the negative charge improves the reactivity of thioredoxin with chloroplast enzymes such as fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase and ferredoxin-dependent thioredoxin reductase.  相似文献

Extracts of Synechococcus leopoliensis (Anacystis nidulans) contain two forms of D-fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (EC 3.1.3.11) previously designated as forms A and B [Gerbling, K.-P., Steup, M., and Latzko, E. (1984) Arch. Microbiol. 137, 109-114]. Form B, which probably represents the major part of the total extractable fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase activity, has been purified to apparent homogeneity. Gel filtration, non-denaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and cross-linking with bis(sulfosuccinimidyl)suberate revealed that the fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase B exists in either a dimeric or in a tetrameric subform, depending upon the absence or presence of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate and Mg2+. The dimer--tetramer interconversion was readily reversible. The results provide evidence for a two-step activation of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase B involving the reduction of the dimeric subform and the subsequent substrate-dependent conversion of the reduced dimer to a reduced tetramer, which is the only catalytically active state. In contrast to form B, no substrate-dependent interconversion was detected with form A from S. leopoliensis.  相似文献

Light/dark modulation of the ribulose-5-phosphate kinase, NADP+-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, and fructose- 1,6-bisphosphatase activity was measured in the developing primary leaf of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) seedlings. Ribulose-5-phosphate kinase and NADP+ -glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase were fully light activated even at the earliest developmental stage sampled. In contrast, light modulation of fructose- 1,6-bisphosphatase exhibited a complex response to leaf developmental status. Light stimulation of fructose- 1,6-bisphosphatase activity (measured at pH 8.0) increased progressively during leaf development. On the other hand, acid fructose- 1,6-bisphosphatase activity (measured at pH 6.0) was inhibited by light, and this light inhibition was greater in the base of the leaf than in the tip of the leaf.  相似文献

The properties of dephospho- and phosphofructose-1,6-bisphosphatase from the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae and of two mutant enzymes in which the phosphorylatable Ser11 had been changed by site-directed mutagenesis (Ser----Ala and Ser----Asp) were studied to clarify the role of cyclic AMP-dependent phosphorylation of yeast fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase. The mutant enzymes and wild type Ser11 fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase were overexpressed and purified to homogeneity. Phosphofructose-1,6-bisphosphatase was prepared by in vitro phosphorylation. The comparison of the properties of the above enzymes demonstrated that all four had similar maximum activity. However, the phosphoenzyme was about 3-fold more sensitive to AMP and fructose 2,6-bisphosphate inhibition than the dephosphoenzyme, suggesting that regulation operates in vivo by this mechanism, leading to decreased enzyme activity. The purified mutant enzymes Ala11 and Asp11 exhibited properties closely similar to those of dephospho- and phosphofructose-1,6-bisphosphatase, respectively. These results indicate that the functional group at residue 11 is an important factor in the regulation of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase activity and that Ser(P) can be functionally substituted by Asp in this enzyme.  相似文献
