A malic enzyme from a cell-free extract of Pseudomonas diminuta IFO-13182 was purified to electrophoretic homogeneity by DEAE-Sepharose, Sephacryl, and Blue-Sepharose chromatographies. The purified enzyme required either NAD+ or NADP+ as a coenzyme. From the results of coenzyme specificity, the enzyme should be classified as l-malate: NAD+ oxidoreductase (decarboxylating) [EC 1.1.1.39]. The purified enzyme was most active at pH 7.5 and 50°C and was stable in the pH range from 7.0 to 9.0. The isoelectric point was pH 4.3. Its molecular weight was 680,000 by COSMOSIL 5-Diol high performance liquid gel filtration on chromatography and 65,000 by SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. This indicates that the enzyme consisted of 10 subunits. The malic enzyme activity with NADP+ was about twice that measured with NAD+.  相似文献

Malic enzyme (EC 1.1.1.40) converts l-malate to pyruvate and CO2 providing NADPH for metabolism especially for lipid biosynthesis in oleaginous microorganisms. However, its role in the oleaginous yeast, Yarrowia lipolytica, is unclear. We have cloned the malic enzyme gene (YALI0E18634g) from Y. lipolytica into pET28a, expressed it in Escherichia coli and purified the recombinant protein (YlME). YlME used NAD+ as the primary cofactor. Km values for NAD+ and NADP+ were 0.63 and 3.9 mM, respectively. Citrate, isocitrate and α-ketoglutaric acid (>5 mM) were inhibitory while succinate (5–15 mM) increased NADP+- but not NAD+-dependent activity. To determine if fatty acid biosynthesis could be increased in Y. lipolytica by providing additional NADPH from an NADP+-dependent malic enzyme, the malic enzyme gene (mce2) from an oleaginous fungus, Mortierella alpina, was expressed in Y. lipolytica. No significant changes occurred in lipid content or fatty acid profiles suggesting that malic enzyme is not the main source of NADPH for lipid accumulation in Y. lipolytica.  相似文献

The steady-state kinetics of alcohol dehydrogenases (alcohol:NAD+ oxidoreductase, EC 1.1.1.1 and alcohol:NADP+ oxidoreductase, EC 1.1.1.2), lactate dehydrogenases (l-lactate:NAD+ oxidoreductase, EC 1.1.1.27 and d-lactate:NAD+ oxidoreductase, EC 1.1.1.28), malate dehydrogenase (l-malate:NAD+ oxidoreductase, EC 1.1.1.37), and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenases [d-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate:NAD+ oxidoreductase (phosphorylating), EC 1.2.1.12] from different sources (prokaryote and eukaryote, mesophilic and thermophilic organisms) have been studied using NAD(H), N6-(2-carboxyethyl)-NAD(H), and poly(ethylene glycol)-bound NAD(H) as coenzymes. The kinetic constants for NAD(H) were changed by carboxyethylation of the 6-amino group of the adenine ring and by conversion to macromolecular form. Enzymes from thermophilic bacteria showed especially high activities for the derivatives. The relative values of the maximum velocity (NAD = 1) of Thermus thermophilus malate dehydrogenase for N6-(2-carboxyethyl)-NAD and poly(ethylene glycol)-bound NAD were 5.7 and 1.9, respectively, and that of Bacillus stearothermophilus glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase for poly(ethylene glycol)-bound NAD was 1.9.  相似文献

d-Glucose dehydrogenase [β-d-glucosc: NAD(P) oxidoreductase (EC 1.1.1.47)] was synthesized derepressively in a mutant of a Bacillus species which was isolated as an improved strain for d-ribose production. The enzyme was very unstable and inactivated during storage or column chromatography. The inactivation was prevented in the presence of NAD+, NADP+ or certain salts. The inactive enzyme was reactivated by the addition of NAD+, NADH, NADP+, NADPH, AMP, ADP, ATP or certain salts. The molecular weights of the inactive and active form of the enzyme were estimated to be about 45,000 and 80,000, respectively, by Sephadex G–150 gel filtration. Thus, it seems that the enzyme activity is regulated by monomer-dimer interconversion of the enzyme molecule.  相似文献

NADP+-isocitrate dehydrogenase (threo-DS-isocitrate: NADP+ oxidoreductase [decarboxylating]; EC 1.1.1.42) (IDH) from pod walls of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) was purified 192-fold using ammonium sulfate fractionation, ion exchange chromatography on DEAE-Sephadex A-50, and gel filtration through Sephadex G-200. The purified enzyme, having a molecular weight of about 126,000, exhibited a broad pH optima from 8.0 to 8.6. It was quite stable at 4°C and had an absolute requirement for a divalent cation, either Mg2+ or Mn2+, for its activity. Typical hyperbolic kinetics was obtained with increasing concentrations of NADP+, dl-isocitrate, Mn2+, and Mg2+. Their Km values were 15, 110, 15, and 192 micromolar, respectively. The enzyme activity was inhibited by sulfhydryl reagents. Various amino acids, amides, organic acids, nucleotides, each at a concentration of 5 millimolar, had no effect on the activity of the enzyme. The activity was not influenced by adenylate energy charge but decreased linearly with increasing ratio of NADPH to NADP+. Initial velocity studies indicated kinetic mechanism to be sequential. NADPH inhibited the forward reaction competitively with respect to NADP+ at fixed saturating concentration of isocitrate, whereas 2-oxoglutarate inhibited the enzyme noncompetitively at saturating concentrations of both NADP+ and isocitrate, indicating the reaction mechanism to be random sequential. Results suggest that the activity of NADP+-IDH in situ is likely to be controlled by intracellular NADPH to NADP+ ratio as well as by the concentration of various substrates and products.  相似文献

A sensitive isotope exchange method was developed to assess the requirements for and compartmentation of pyruvate and oxalacetate production from malate in proliferating and nonproliferating human fibroblasts. Malatedependent pyruvate production (malic enzyme activity) in the particulate fraction containing the mitochondria was dependent on either NAD+ or NADP+. The production of pyruvate from malate in the soluble, cytosolic fraction was strictly dependent on NADP+. Oxalacetate production from malate (malate dehydrogenase, EC 1.1.1.37) in both the particulate and soluble fraction was strictly dependent on NAD+. Relative to nonproliferating cells, NAD+-linked malic enzyme activity was slightly reduced and the NADP+-linked activity was unchanged in the particulate fraction of serum-stimulated, exponentially proliferating cells. However, a reduced activity of particulate malate dehydrogenase resulted in a two-fold increase in the ratio of NAD(P)+-linked malic enzyme to NAD+-linked malate dehydrogenase activity in the particulate fraction of proliferating fibroblasts. An increase in soluble NADP+-dependent malic enzyme activity and a decrease in NAD+-linked malate dehydrogenase indictated an increase in the ratio of pyruvate-producing to oxalacetate-producing malate oxidase activity in the cytosol of proliterating cells. These coordinate changes may affect the relative amount of malate that is oxidized to oxalacetate and pyruvate in proliferating cells and, therefore, the efficient utilization of glutamine as a respiratory fuel during cell proliferation.  相似文献

Periodate-oxidized NADP+ (dialdehyde-NADP+) inactivated soluble ferredoxin-NADP+ oxidoreductase and combined covalently to the enzyme. This inactivation was first order with respect to dialdehyde-NADP+ and followed saturation kinetics, indicating that the enzyme initially forms a reversible complex with the inactivator. NADP+ afforded complete protection against inactivation, while spinach ferredoxin was uneffective. In the presence of exogenous ferredoxin and illuminated thylakoids, the nucleotide analog functioned as a coenzyme for the reductase, although with rather lower efficiency than NADP+. It also acted as a competitive inhibitor with respect to NADPH in diaphorase activity. Incorporation of radioactivity from periodate-oxidized [3H]NADP+ gave a stoichiometry of 0.85 mol of reagent/mol of reductase, indicating that the modification of a single residue in the flavoprotein is responsible for the loss of enzymatic activity.  相似文献

In the presence of exogenous NAD+, malate oxidation by cauliflower mitochondria takes place essentially via an electron transport pathway that is insensitive to rotenone, antimycin and cyanide but is strongly sensitive to salicyl hydroxamic acid. It bypasses all phosphorylation sites. NAD+ is reduced by an enzyme identified as malic enzyme (L-malate:NAD oxidoreductase (decarboxylating), EC 1.1.1.39). The NADH produced is reoxidized by an internal rotenone-insensitive NADH dehydrogenase that yields electrons directly to the cyanide-insensitive pathway.  相似文献

A procedure for the purification of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase [mevalonate:NADP+ oxidoreductase (CoA-acylating); EC 1.1.1.34] from rat liver microsomes has been developed. The enzyme preparations obtained by this procedure have specific activities of 16 to 23 μmol of mevalonate formed per minute per milligram of protein. These enzyme preparations were judged to be homogeneous on the basis of comigration of enzyme activity and protein on polyacrylamide gels.  相似文献

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase from Leuconostoc mesenteroides utilizes either NAD+ or NADP+ as coenzyme. Kinetic studies showed that NAD+ and NADP+ interact with different enzyme forms (Olive, C., Geroch, M. E., and Levy, H. R. (1971) J. Biol. Chem.246, 2047–2057). In the present study the techniques of fluorescence quenching and fluorescence enhancement were used to investigate the interaction between Leuconostoc mesenteroides glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and coenzymes. In addition, kinetic studies were performed to examine interaction between the enzyme and various coenzyme analogs. The maximum quenching of protein fluorescence is 5% for NADP+ and 50% for NAD+. The dissociation constant for NADP+, determined from fluorescence quenching measurements, is 3 μm, which is similar to the previously determined Km of 5.7 μm and Ki of 5 μm. The dissociation constant for NAD+ is 2.5 mm, which is 24 times larger than the previously determined Km of 0.106 mm. Glucose 1-phosphate, a substrate-competitive inhibitor, lowers the dissociation constant and maximum fluorescence quenching for NAD+ but not for NADP+. This suggests that glucose 6-phosphate may act similarly and thus play a role in enabling the enzyme to utilize NAD+ under physiological conditions. When NADPH binds to the enzyme its fluorescence is enhanced 2.3-fold. The enzyme was titrated with NADPH in the absence and presence of NAD+; binding of these two coenzymes is competitive. The dissociation constant for NADPH from these measurements is 24 μm; the previously determined Ki is 37.6 μm. The dissociation constant for NAD′ is 2.8 mm, in satisfactory agreement with the value obtained from protein fluorescence quenching measurements. Various compounds which resemble either the adenosine or the nicotinamide portion of the coenzyme structure are coenzyme-competitive inhibitors; 2′,5′-ADP, the most inhibitory analog tested, gives NADP+-competitive and NAD+-noncompetitive inhibition, consistent with the kinetic mechanism previously proposed. By using pairs of coenzyme-competitive inhibitors it was shown in kinetic studies that the two portions of the NAD+ structure cannot be accommodated on the enzyme simultaneously unies they are covalently linked. Fluorescence studies showed that there are both “buried” and “exposed” tryptophan residues in the enzyme structure.  相似文献

The kinetic mechanism of the reaction catalyzed by glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.49) from Dicentrarchus labrax liver was examined using initial velocity studies,NADPH and glucosamine 6-phosphate inhibition and alternate coenzyme experiments. The results are consistent with a steady-state ordered sequential mechanism in which NADP+ binds first to the enzyme and NADPH is released last. Replots of NADPH inhibition show an uncommon parabolic pattern for this enzyme that has not been previously described. A kinetic model is proposed in agreement with our kinetic results and with previously published structural studies (Bautista et al. (1988) Biochem. Soc. Trans. 16, 903–904). The kinetic mechanism presented provides a possible explanation for the regulation of the enzyme by the [NADPH]/[NADP+] ratio.  相似文献

The malic dehydrogenase (MDH2, l-malate: NAD oxidoreductase, E.C. 1,1.1.37) of Trichomonas gallinae was purified 215-fold and characterized. The molecular weight was found to be 72,000 and the enzyme protein contained essential cations and sulfhydryl groups. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis before and after extensive purification yielded a single band of malic dehydrogenase activity strongly suggesting only one molecular form of the enzyme. Analysis of kinetic data yielded the following Km values: oxalocetate, 16 μM; malate, 200 μM; NADH 11 μM; and NAD, 70 μM. The enzyme was absolutely specific for l-malic acid, NAD, and NADH. The enzyme exhibited a broad band of heat stability with an optimum of 51 C. The pH optimum in the direction of oxalacetate reduction was 9.0. The pH optima in the reverse direction were 9.0 and 10.5 A role for this enzyme in T. gallinae metabolism is discussed.  相似文献

Mitochondria from the parasitic helminth, Hymenolepis diminuta, catalyzed both NADPH:NAD+ and NADH:NADP+ transhydrogenase reactions which were demonstrable employing the appropriate acetylpyridine nucleotide derivative as the hydride ion acceptor. Thionicotinamide NAD+ would not serve as the oxidant in the former reaction. Under the assay conditions employed, neither reaction was energy linked, and the NADPH:NAD+ system was approximately five times more active than the NADH:NADP+ system. The NADH:NADP+ reaction was inhibited by phosphate and imidazole buffers, EDTA, and adenyl nucleotides, while the NADPH:NAD+ reaction was inhibited only slightly by imidazole and unaffected by EDTA and adenyl nucleotides. Enzyme coupling techniques revealed that both transhydrogenase systems functioned when the appropriate physiological pyridine nucleotide was the hydride ion acceptor. An NADH:NAD+ transhydrogenase system, which was unaffected by EDTA, or adenyl nucleotides, also was demonstrable in the mitochondria of H. diminuta. Saturation kinetics indicated that the NADH:NAD+ reaction was the product of an independent enzyme system. Mitochondria derived from another parasitic helminth, Ascaris lumbricoides, catalyzed only a single transhydrogenase reaction, i.e., the NADH:NAD+ activity. Transhydrogenase systems from both parasites were essentially membrane bound and localized on the inner mitochondrial membrane. Physiologically, the NADPH:NAD+ transhydrogenase of H. diminuta may serve to couple the intramitochondrial metabolism of malate (via an NADP linked “malic” enzyme) to the anaerobic NADH-dependent ATP-generating fumarate reductase system. In A. lumbricoides, where the intramitochondrial metabolism of malate depends on an NAD-linked “malic” enzyme which is localized primarily in the intermembrane space, the NADH:NAD+ transhydrogenase activity may serve physiologically in the translocation of hydride ions across the inner membrane to the anaerobic energy-generating fumarate reductase system.  相似文献

Ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) is the most common cause of acute renal injury. I/R-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) are thought to be a major factor in the development of acute renal injury by promoting the initial tubular damage. NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) is a well-known antioxidant protein that regulates ROS generation. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether NQO1 modulates the renal I/R injury (IRI) associated with NADPH oxidase (NOX)-derived ROS production in an animal model. We analyzed renal function, oxidative stress, and tubular apoptosis after IRI. NQO1−/− mice showed increased blood urea nitrogen and creatinine levels, tubular damage, oxidative stress, and apoptosis. In the kidneys of NQO1−/− mice, the cellular NADPH/NADP+ ratio was significantly higher and NOX activity was markedly higher than in those of NQO1+/+ mice. The activation of NQO1 by β-lapachone (βL) significantly improved renal dysfunction and reduced tubular cell damage, oxidative stress, and apoptosis by renal I/R. Moreover, the βL treatment significantly lowered the cellular NADPH/NADP+ ratio and dramatically reduced NOX activity in the kidneys after IRI. From these results, it was concluded that NQO1 has a protective role against renal injury induced by I/R and that this effect appears to be mediated by decreased NOX activity via cellular NADPH/NADP+ modulation. These results provide convincing evidence that NQO1 activation might be beneficial for ameliorating renal injury induced by I/R.  相似文献

Transhydrogenase (E.C. 1.6.1.1) couples the redox reaction between NAD(H) and NADP(H) to the transport of protons across a membrane. The enzyme is composed of three components. The dI and dIII components, which house the binding site for NAD(H) and NADP(H), respectively, are peripheral to the membrane, and dII spans the membrane. We have estimated dissociation constants (Kd values) for NADPH (0.87 μM), NADP+ (16 μM), NADH (50 μM), and NAD+ (100-500 μM) for intact, detergent-dispersed transhydrogenase from Escherichia coli using micro-calorimetry. This is the first complete set of dissociation constants of the physiological nucleotides for any intact transhydrogenase. The Kd values for NAD+ and NADH are similar to those previously reported with isolated dI, but the Kd values for NADP+ and NADPH are much larger than those previously reported with isolated dIII. There is negative co-operativity between the binding sites of the intact, detergent-dispersed transhydrogenase when both nucleotides are reduced or both are oxidised.  相似文献

Malic enzyme [L-malate: NAD(P)+ oxidoreductase (EC 1.1.1.39)] catalyzes the oxidative decarboxylation of L-malic acid to produce pyruvic acid using the oxidized form of NAD(P) (NAD(P)+). We used a reverse reaction of the malic enzyme of Pseudomonas diminuta IFO 13182 for HCO3 ? fixation into pyruvic acid to produce L-malic acid with coenzyme (NADH) generation. Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC1.1.1.49) of Leuconostoc mesenteroides was suitable for coenzyme regeneration. Optimum conditions for the carboxylation of pyruvic acid were examined, including pyruvic acid, NAD+, and both malic enzyme and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase concentrations. Under optimal conditions, the ratio of HCO3 ? and pyruvic acid to malic acid was about 38% after 24 h of incubation at 30 °C, and the concentration of the accumulated L-malic acid in the reaction mixture was 38 mM. The malic enzyme reverse reaction was also carried out by the conjugated redox enzyme reaction with water-soluble polymer-bound NAD+.  相似文献

Cofactors cannot be retained within polyamide membrane microcapsules unless the cofactors have been covalently linked to macromolecules. In this paper, a new approach using lipid-polyamide membrane microcapsules has resulted in the retention of unmodified cofactors. Lipid-polyamide microcapsules can be made to contain urease (urea amidohydrolase, EC 3.5.1.5), glutamate dehydrogenase (NAD(P)+) [l-glutamate: NAD(P)+ oxidoreductase (deaminating), EC 1.4.1.3], alcohol dehydrogenase (alcohol:NAD+ oxidoreductase, EC 1.1.1.1), NAD+, NADH and α-ketoglutarate. Lipophilic substrates like ammonia can equilibrate rapidly into the microcapsules. The rate of conversion of ammonia into glutamate was studied. NAD+ retained in the microcapsules was effectively recycled into NADH and 0.25 μmol NAD+ converted 10 μmol ammonia into glutamate. Without cofactor recycling, 10 μmol NADH had to be microencapsulated to convert the same amount of ammonia into glutamate. By adjusting the ratio of cholesterol and lecithin in the lipid component of the membrane, it was also possible to achieve a good urea-permeable membrane without any leakage of cofactor or α-ketoglutarate. This way urea permeated through the lipid-polyamide membrane microcapsules was sequentially converted into ammonia and then glutamate.  相似文献

We measured the kinetics of light-induced NADPH formation and subsequent dark consumption by monitoring in vivo its fluorescence in the cyanobacterium Synechocystis PCC 6803. Spectral data allowed the signal changes to be attributed to NAD(P)H and signal linearity vs the chlorophyll concentration was shown to be recoverable after appropriate correction. Parameters associated to reduction of NADP+ to NADPH by ferredoxin–NADP+-oxidoreductase were determined: After single excitation of photosystem I, half of the signal rise is observed in 8 ms; Evidence for a kinetic limitation which is attributed to an enzyme bottleneck is provided; After two closely separated saturating flashes eliciting two photosystem I turnovers in less than 2 ms, more than 50% of the cytoplasmic photoreductants (reduced ferredoxin and photosystem I acceptors) are diverted from NADPH formation by competing processes. Signal quantitation in absolute NADPH concentrations was performed by adding exogenous NADPH to the cell suspensions and by estimating the enhancement factor of in vivo fluorescence (between 2 and 4). The size of the visible (light-dependent) NADP (NADP+ + NADPH) pool was measured to be between 1.4 and 4 times the photosystem I concentration. A quantitative discrepancy is found between net oxygen evolution and NADPH consumption by the light-activated Calvin–Benson cycle. The present study shows that NADPH fluorescence is an efficient probe for studying in vivo the energetic metabolism of cyanobacteria which can be used for assessing multiple phenomena occurring over different time scales.  相似文献

A flavoenzyme which showed NADPH-cytochrome c reductase (NADPH-cytochrome c oxidoreductase EC 1.6.2.4) and transhydrogenase (NADPH-NAD+ oxidoreductase, EC 1.6.1.1) activities was purified to an electrophoretically homogeneous state from Nitrobacter winogradskyi. The reductase was a flavoprotein which contained one FAD per molecule but no FMN. The oxidized form of the enzyme showed absorption maxima at 272, 375 and 459 nm with a shoulder at 490 nm, its molecular weight was estimated to be 36,000 by SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and the enzyme seemed to exist as a dimer in aqueous solution. The enzyme catalyzed reduction of cytochrome c, DCIP and benzylviologen by NADPH, oxidation of NADPH with menadione and duroquinone, and showed transhydrogenase activity. NADH was less effective than NADPH as the electron donor in the reactions catalyzed by the enzyme. The NADPH-reduction catalyzed by the enzyme of N. winogradskyi cytochrome c-550 and horse cytochrome c was stimulated by spinach ferredoxin. The enzyme reduced NADP+ with reduced spinach ferredoxin and benzylviologen radical.Abbreviations DCIP dichlorophenolindophenol - Tris trishydroxy-methylaminomethane - Mops 3-(N-morpholino) propanesulfonic acid - SDS sodium dodecylsufate  相似文献
