Summary
Rana ridibunda erythrocytes have a complete sequence of glycolytic enzymes but not the tricarboxylic acid cycle enzymes.The steady state contents of the glycolytic intermediates were measured in quick frozenRana ridibunda erythrocytes. A comparison of the mass action ratios with the equilibrium constants for the glycolytic reactions showed that phosphoglucomutase, phosphoglucose isomerase, aldolase, triosephosphate isomerase, phosphoglycerate mutase and enolase reactions are all near equilibrium whilst hexokinase, phosphofructokinase and pyruvate kinase are displaced from equilibrium.The steady state contents of glycolytic intermediates, lactate, adenine nucleotides, inorganic phosphate have been measured during various periods up to 4 h of incubation of erythrocytes in the presence of glucose. In the incubation experiment glycolysis had been stimulated by the high pH-value of the medium. After 4 h of incubation 3 patterns of changes can be distinguished. One group of intermediates (glucose, glucose 6-phosphate, 2-phosphoglycerate and inorganic phosphate) in which the concentration of metabolites was lower than the zero time values. A second group of metabolites (fructose 6-phosphate, fructose 1,6-bisphosphate, phosphoenolpyruvate and AMP) in which the concentration was about the same at zero time and after 4 h of incubation. The metabolites of the third group (dihydroxyacetone phosphate, glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate, 1,3-diphosphoglycerate, 2,3-diphosphoglycerate, 3-phosphoglycerate, pyruvate, lactate, ADP, ATP and glucose 1-phosphate) all increased their content during the 4 h of incubation in comparison to the zero time values.From the results it appears that in the amphibian erythrocyte glycolysis seems to be similar to that of mammalian erythrocytes as far its control and organisation is concerned down to the level of PEP, with the exception of the low concentration of phosphoglycerate compounds.Abbreviations

The reaction schemes suggested earlier for thermal transformation of glycine into amino acids and carboxylic acids are considered in detail. Close analogy with some wide-spread biochemical reactions of amino acids is observed. The pathway suggested has some common stages with the tricarboxylic acid cycle and other metabolic processes. The possible role of -imino or -keto acids as prebiological analogs of pyridoxal-phosphate-containing enzymes is discussed. The thermal transformations of glycine under primitive Earth conditions could be considered as evolutionary precursors of some present-day metabolic pathways. 相似文献

Evacuolated mesophyll protoplasts from oat (Avena sativa L.) were fractionated by a membrane-filtration technique. This method of rapid quenching of metabolic reactions permitted estimation of the in-vivo pools of fructose 2,6-bisphosphate (Fru2,6bisP) in the cytosol, chloroplasts and mitochondria. Vacuolar Fru2,6bisP was calculated as the difference between control protoplasts and evacuolated ones. The results indicate that Fru2,6bisP is exclusively cytosol-located in oat mesophyll protoplasts. Assuming a cytosolic volume of about 2 pl per evacuolated protoplast, the cytosolic concentration there was 11 M if protoplasts were in darkness. Illumination of either control or evacuolated protoplasts resulted in a significant decrease in the Fru2,6bisP content within 5 min.Abbreviations EPs

Metabolism of radiolabelled hexoses by discs excised from developing potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) tubers was been investigated in the presence of acid invertase to prevent accumulation of labelled sucrose in the bathing medium (Viola, 1996, Planta 198: 179–185). When the discs were incubated with either [U-14C]glucose or [U-14C]fructose without unlabelled hexoses, the unidirectional rate of sucrose synthesis was insignificant compared with that of sucrose breakdown. The inclusion of unlabelled fructose in the medium induced a dramatic increase in the unidirectional rate of sucroses synthesis in the tuber discs. Indeed, the decline in the sucrose content observed when discs were incubated without exogenous sugars could be completely prevented by including 300 mM fructose in the bathing medium. On the other hand, the inclusion of unlabelled glucose in the medium did not significantly affect the relative incorporation of [U-14C]glucose to starch, sucrose or glycolytic products. Substantial differences in the intramolecular distribution of 13C enrichment in the hexosyl moieties of sucrose were observed when the discs were incubated with either [2-13C]fructose or [2-13C]glucose. The pattern of 13C enrichment distribution in sucrose suggested that incoming glucose was converted into sucrose via the sucrose-phosphate synthase pathway whilst fructose was incorporated directly into sucrose via sucrose synthase. Quantitative estimations of metabolic fluxes in vivo in the discs were also provided. The apparent maximal rate of glucose phosphorylation was close to the extractable maximum catalytic activity of glucokinase. On the other hand, the apparent maximal rate of fructose phosphorylation was much lower than the maximum catalytic activity of fructokinase, suggesting that the activity of the enzyme (unlike that of glucokinase) was regulated in vivo. Although in the discs incubated with or without fructose the rates of starch synthesis or glycolysis were similar, the relative partitioning of metabolic intermediates into sucrose was much higher in discs incubated with fructose (0.6% and 32.6%, respectively). It is hypothesised that the equilibrium of the reaction catalysed by sucrose synthase in vivo is affected in discs incubated with fructose as a result of the accumulation of the sugar in the tissue. This results in the onset of sucrose cycling. Incubation with glucose enhanced all metabolic fluxes. In particular, the net rate of starch synthesis increased from 2.0 mol · hexose · g FW–1 · h–1 in the absence of exogenous glucose to 3.7 mol · hexose · g FW–1 · h–1 in the presence of 300 mM glucose. These data are taken as an indication that the regulation of fructokinase in vivo may represent a limiting factor in the utilisation of sucrose for biosynthetic processes in developing potato tubers.Abbreviations ADPGlc

The concept of pharmacological ethnic safety is presented. Drug safety varies for different ethnic groups (populations) depending on their metabolic status, i.e., the proportion of individuals with a certain phenotype for drug metabolism (inactivation) and the starting (initial) state of the enzymes metabolizing them. To determine population metabolic status and predict the possible risk of drug side effects, compilation of ethnic pharmacological data sheets is needed. According to the results, drugs exported to monoethnic and multiethnic countries should be thoroughly tested for metabolic safety for ethnic groups with particular drug-metabolism phenotypes. On the basis of this concept, the ethnic metabolic safety of drugs subjected to phase I biotransformation reactions (oxidation and hydrolysis) has been theoretically estimated. The dependence of the predisposition to side effects of these drugs on the frequencies of different phenotypes for the types and rates of these two reactions is specially emphasized. 相似文献

(i) The pattern of O2 flash yields in the first 4 hours of the life cycle cannot be described by the simple Kok model without additional assumptions. (ii) The miss coefficient in the mature cells in significantly higher than that in the autospores, its change occurring at the expense of the single-hit coefficient . Computer simulation yielded values of 0.29 and 0.23 and values of 0.66 and 0.72 in the light and dark, respectively. (iii) The onset of light at the beginning of the cycle drastically changes the equilibrium distribution of the S states in the dark; the ratio S0/S1 increases from 30/70 to 50/50 in 1 h, and is restored not earlier than in the 6th hour. (iv) In the presence of 1 mmol/l p-benzoquinone, the alga shows pronounced and long-lasting oscillations in the O2 yield sequences, independently of the time of the life cycle. This means that the O2-evolving system itself is always present and equally efficient throughout the life cycle. Limits imposed on its activity (mainly in the first 4 hours) are clearly of an external nature. The redox potential of the inner thylakoid space is presumably involved.Abbreviations BQ

When exposed to mixtures of glucose and fructose, as occurs during the fermentation of grape juice into wine, Saccharomyces cerevisiae uses these sugars at different rates. Moreover, glucose and fructose are transported by the same hexose transporters (HXT), which present a greater affinity for glucose, so that late in fermentation, fructose becomes the predominant sugar. Only a few commercial fermentation activators are available to optimally solve the problems this entails. The aim of this study was to investigate the relation between HXT3 gene expression and fructose/glucose discrepancy in two different media inoculated with a commercial wine strain of S. cerevisiae in the presence of three metabolic activators. Fermentation kinetics, vitality and major metabolites were also measured. Rehydration with ergosterol improved the area under the curve and the growth rate (µ max ) in both studied media. Also, the fructose/glucose discrepancy values were improved with all activator treatments, highlighting rehydration in the presence of ascorbic acid. The yeast rehydration process was demonstrated to influence HXT3 expression under the studied conditions. Tetrahydrofolic acid treatment greatly influenced HXT3 gene expression, especially on the 12th day of the fermentation process. To a lesser extent, ergosterol and ascorbic acid also improved this parameter. 相似文献

Jerusalem artichoke is a favorable substrate for inulin or fructose syrup production. The sugar content and the fructose ratio of inulin depend on various factors, particularly on the date of harvest. Incomplete fermentation of extracts by selected yeasts allows the production of inulin with increased fructose content. The yeast strains (Saccharomyces cerevisiae, S. diastaticus...) are chosen for their ability to ferment sucrose and inulin small polymers, but not easily inulin large polymers. A good increase in the fructose ratio and a good yield in residual sugars can be obtained with the better strains. After fermentation and acid or enzymatic hydrolysis, extracts from early and late harvested tubers lead to syrups of good quality containing up to 95% and 90% of fructose respectively. This fermentative enrichment process is competitive with others (for example, chromatographic enrichment), is appropriate to raw extracts, simplifies the purification steps, and also permits the simultaneous benefit of production of by-products in the form of ethanol and yeast (in addition to the pulps). Unhydrolyzed inulin polymers with high fructose content can be recovered by this selective fermentation. 相似文献

Summary After seven days of feeding fructose the liver of Wistar rats showed enormous accumulations of glycogen, which completely altered the original pattern of distribution of organelles. A quantitative morphological method was used to analyze these changes.The cytoplasm was mapped into arbitrary distance classes corresponding to concentric rings beginning at the outer nuclear membrane. This allowed the density of organelles in a given zone to be estimated.In cells filled with glycogen as a result of the fructose feeding, the following rearrangements were found: in the intermediate zone of both cellular poles (i.e., bile canalicular pole and sinusoidal pole) the mitochondria disappeared, being replaced by glycogen.The endoplasmic reticulum was accumulated in the perinuclear zone of both cellular poles, as in control animals, but was reduced throughout the rest of cytoplasm. It showed a peripheral density maximum at the biliary canalicular pole, in contrast to the cells of control animals.These changes in the distribution of the organelles and cellular compartments correspond to histochemical findings and demonstrate an adaptive reaction in the liver parenchyma to fructose ingestion, the organelles arranging themselves in cytoplasmic regions which still show a metabolic activity.Supported by a grant from the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft Az Ri 271/6-5 相似文献

The bacterium Oenococcus oeni employs the heterolactic fermentation pathway (products lactate, ethanol, CO2) during growth on fructose as a substrate, and the mannitol pathway when using fructose as an electron acceptor. In this study, [U-13C]glucose, [U-13C]fructose, HPLC, NMR spectroscopy, and enzyme analysis were applied to elucidate the use of both pathways by the hexoses. In the presence of glucose or pyruvate, fructose was metabolized either by the mannitol or the phosphoketolase pathways, respectively. Phosphoglucose isomerase, which is required for channeling fructose into the phosphoketolase pathways, was inhibited by a mixed-type inhibition composed of competitive (K
i=180 M) and uncompetitive (Ki=350 M) inhibition by 6-phosphogluconate. Erythrose 4-phosphate inhibited phosphoglucose isomerase competitively (K
i=1.3 M) with a low contribution of uncompetitive inhibition (Ki=13 M). The cellular 6-phosphogluconate content during growth on fructose plus pyruvate (<75 M) was significantly lower than during growth on fructose alone or fructose plus glucose (550 and 480 M). We conclude that competitive inhibition of phosphoglucose isomerase by 6-phosphogluconate (and possibly erythrose 4-phosphate) is responsible for exclusion of fructose from the phosphoketolase pathway during growth on fructose plus glucose, but not during growth on fructose plus pyruvate. 相似文献

Summary The population metabolism of N. muscorum at a beechwood site in southern England was determined for two separate year periods by two methods; a detailed computer analysis and a best estimate. These methods, which are based on data of biomass, population dynamics, field temperatures, and respiration rates of all life stages with temperature, are compared. The validity of extrapolating laboratory determined basal metabolic rates to field activity is discussed; and the population metabolism of N. muscorum is compared with that reported for other soil and litter invertebrate species, both predatory and non-predatory.The metabolic rates of the adults of a second species of pseudoscorpion found at the beechwood site (Chthonius orthodactylus (Leach)), were determined, and the life cycle and metabolism of this species is compared to N. muscorum. The influence of low environmental temperatures on poikilothermic predators, with reference to life cycle strategies, basal metabolism and geographic distribution, is discussed. 相似文献

The compartmentation of glycolytic and gluconeogenic enzymes in rat kidney and liver and its significance to renal and hepatic metabolism 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Summary An indirect immunoperoxidase procedure has been used to demonstrate sites of glycolysis and gluconeogenesis in normal rat kidney and liver. In kidney, the gluconeogenic enzyme fructose 1,6-biphosphatase was restricted to the proximal tubular epithelium, while the glycolytic enzyme hexokinase predominated in more distal segments. Intense staining for the biphosphatase in proximal convoluted tubular brush borders suggests that reabsorbed substrates may be used directly at this site in renal gluconeogenesis. In view of the high phosphofructokinase and pyruvate kinase activities present in collecting ducts, their relatively low hexokinase activities and their relatively pale immunostaining for hexokinase indicate that glycolytic substrates which feed into the pathway subsequent to the initial phosphorylation step, rather than glucose, may be the major energy source for the rat renal papilla.Immunostaining in the liver was consistent with the metabolic zonation of liver parenchyma, in that glucokinase occurred mainly in perivenous regions and fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase in periportal areas. The presence of such metabolic zonation is difficult to reconcile with the widely held view that the majority of hepatic glucogen is derived directly from glucose. A model for hepatic glycogen synthesis is proposed which links the concept of parenchymal zonal heterogeneity with recent biochemical evidence concerning the glucose paradox and with microscopical studies on the dynamics of glycogen deposition after refeeding. 相似文献

In bacteria two forms of metabolic energy are usually present, i.e. ATP and transmembrane ion-gradients, that can be used to drive the various endergonic reactions associated with cellular growth. ATP can be formed directly in substrate level phosphorylation reactions whereas primary transport processes can generate the ion-gradients across the cytoplasmic membrane. The two forms of metabolic energy can be interconverted by the action of ion-translocating ATPases. For fermentative organisms it has long been thought that ion-gradients could only be generated at the expense of ATP hydrolysis by the F0F1-ATPase. In the present article, an overview is given of the various secondary transport processes that form ion-gradients at the expense of precursor (substrate) and/or end-product concentration gradients. The metabolic energy formed by these chemiosmotic circuits contributes to the energy status of the bacterial cell which is particularly important for anaerobic/fermentative organisms. 相似文献

During fermenter cultivation of Phaffia rhodozyma on a grape juice medium, the presence of glucose initially delayed fructose utilization, although fructose was consumed before glucose depletion. Total pigment and astaxanthin production were growth associated and reached maximum values of 15.9 g/ml and 9.8 g/ml, respectively, after depletion of the carbon source. The total cellular pigment and astaxanthin content increased during the stationary growth phase due to a decrease in biomass, reaching final values of 2120 g/g and 1350 g/g, respectively, without the volumetric concentration in the culture changing. The final cell yield was 0.33 g/g sugar utilized. High sugar concentrations in shake-flasks as well as O2 limitation decreased the astaxanthin content of the cells. Addition of yeast extract to a grape juice minimal medium markedly increased the maximum specific growth rate, total pigment and astaxanthin content of the cells. An excess of ammonia decreased the intracellular astaxanthin content, which reached a maximal value in cultures with no residual glucose or ammonia.The authors are with the Department of Microbiology and Biochemistry, University of the Orange Free State, P.O.

Summary
Clostridium thermocellum produced different levels of true cellulase (Avicelase) depending on the carbon source used for growth. In defined medium with fructose, the cellulase titer was seven times higher than with cells growing on cellobiose and four times higher than cells growing with glucose. During the lag phase on fructose, the differences were even more dramatic, i.e. 60 times higher than in cells growing on cellobiose and 40 times that of cells lagging or growing in glucose. In an attempt to detect factors that might contribute to these differences, we considered intracellular ATP, chemical potential (pH), electrical potential (Y), proton motive force (p), growth rate, and rates of uptake of inorganic phosphate and sugars. We noted a direct correlation between cellulase production and intracellular ATP levels and an inverse relationship of cellulase production with Y and p values. It thus appears that cellulase is best produced by cells high in ATP and low in Dp and its electrical component DY. There was no obvious relationship between the cellulase titer and the other parameters. Although the physiological significance of such correlations is unknown, the data suggest that further investigation is warranted. 相似文献

Summary Aleurone layers of barley contain large amounts of a soluble oligosaccharide which was identified as sucrose (30–40 g/mg fresh weight). Treatment of the layers with gibberellic acid (GA3) causes the release of sucrose from the cells. This release requires the participation of metabolic processes, including protein synthesis. When embryoless half-seeds are incubated sucrose accumulates in the aleurone layers, but when seeds are germinated the sucrose content of the aleurone layers declines. Labeling experiments with radioactive glucose and fructose show that aleurone layers continuously synthesize sucrose and that the release, but not the synthesis of sucrose is enhanced by GA3. 相似文献

NADP+-Isocitrate dehydrogenase (ICDH) activity was detected in cell-free extracts of Saccharopolyspora erythraea CA340, an erythromycin producer. Apparent K
m values for dl-isocitrate and NADP+ were 0.14 M and 0.026 M, respectively. ATP, ADP, GTP, citric acid, oxaloacetate, -ketoglutarate, glyoxalate and glyoxalate plus oxaloacetate, each at 1 mM concentration, caused 50, 20 10, 50, 25, 60, 20 and 50% inhibition of ICDH activity, respectively. Phosphoenolpyruvate, fructose 1,6-diphosphate and pyruvate had no effect. ICDH specific activity profile was growth-associated and activity with dextrose or fructose as sole carbon source, was twice of that obtained with lactose. 相似文献

Summary Cell suspension cultures ofChenopodium rubrum have been grown for more than 2 years photoautotrophically with CO2 as sole carbon source. Average increase in fresh weight is appr. 600% within 14 days. The chlorophyll content of photoautotrophic cells (200 g/g fresh weight) is much higher than of photomixotrophic cells (50 g/g fresh weight). The photosynthetic activity of the cells (190 moles CO2×mg–1 chlorophyllXh–1) is comparable to the values found with intact leaves. As shown by short-term14CO2 photosynthesis, both, the photomixotrophic and the photoautotrophic cell suspension cultures assimilate CO2 predominantly via the Calvin pathway.Major differences were found with cells from either exponential or stationary phase of growth with regard to differential labelling of 3-phosphoglyceric acid, malate, sucrose and glucose/fructose.In vitro measurements of carboxylation reactions only partially corroborate our findings with14CO2 incorporation. The ratio of ribulosebisphosphate to phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase activity is 4.7 for leaves of C.rubrum, 1.2 for photoautotrophic cells during stationary growth and 0.5 for cells during exponential growth phase, however, 0.18 was found for photomixotrophic cells. Though the14CO2 incorporation into 3-phosphoglyceric acid is clearly higher than into malate, thein vitro activity of phosphoenolpyruvatecarboxylase is 2–6 fold higher than that of ribulosebisphosphate carboxylase. We postulate that anaplerotic reactions of the tricarboxylic acid cycle are involved in the regulation of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase.Abbreviations 2,4-D

Summary An activated carbon column was utilized for the synthesis of disaccharides by use of a reversed hydrolysis activity of an immobilized -galactosidase column in order to shift the equilibrium to the direction of condensation. The yields of lactulose and allo-lactulose from galactose and fructose, and N-acetyl lactosamine and N-acetyl allolactosamine from galactose and N-acetyl glucosamine, were 11.3% and 10.0%, respectively. 相似文献

The chemical structure of the oligosaccharide produced from sucrose by an enzyme extracted fromAureobasidium sp. ATCC 20524 was observed. The GC-MS analysis by methylation indicated that this oligosaccharide is composed of 2-linked, 1,2-linked fructose and 1-linked glucose. The [13C]-NMR spectrum indicated that the 1,2-linked glycosidic linkages of fructose of this oligosaccharide are, and the 1-linked glycosidic linkages of fructose are . This investigation suggested that this oligosaccharide is isokestose. 相似文献
