D-Garcinia acid (D-threo-1,2-dihydroxy-1,2,3-propanetricarboxylate), like D-isocitrate, has an alpha-DS-hydroxyl group and a beta-LS configuration of the second carboxyl group. The maximal velocity of pyridine nucleotide reduction with D-garcinia acid is 8 and 21% of D-threo-isocitrate with the DPN-linked and TPN-linked isocitrate dehydrogenase from bovine heart, respectively. The other stereoisomers of hydroxycitrate [L-garcinia acid, D- and L-hibiscus acid (D- and L-erythro-1,2-dihydroxy-1,2,3-propanetricarboxylate)] are inactive. DL-threo-Homoisocitrate (DL-threo-1-hydroxy-1,2,4-butanetricarboxylate) supports DPN+ reduction at 10-15% of the rate observed for isocitrate with the DPN-specific enzyme, but is not a substrate for TPN-linked isocitrate dehydrogenase. The values of apparent S0.5 for total isocitrate and total garcinia acid are similar with both enzymes; the apparent S0.5 of total homoisocitrate is two- to threefold higher than that of total isocitrate with the DPN-linked enzyme. Enzymatic oxidative decarboxylation of garcinia acid and homoisocitrate leads to formation of alpha-keto-beta-hydroxyglutarate and alpha-ketoadipate, respectively. DL-Methylmalate (DL-1-hydroxy-2-methylsuccinate) is inactive as a substrate for either dehydrogenase as are the newly synthesized compounds: DL-threo-gamma-isocitrate amide (DL-threo-1-hydroxy-3-carbamy01,2-propanedicarboxylate), beta-methyl-DL-isocitrate (DL-1-hydroxy-2-methyl-1,2,3-propanetricarboxylate), beta-methyl-DL-garcinia acid (DL-threo-1-hydroxyl-2-methoxy-1,2,3-propanetricarboxylate), DL-1-hydroxyl-1,2,2-ethanetricarboxylate, and DL-1,4-dihydroxy-1,2-butanedicarboxylate.  相似文献

The behaviours of the principal NADPH-producing enzymes (glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase, 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase, cytoplasmic and mitochondrial 'malic' enzyme and NAPD+-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase) were studied during the development of rat heart and compared with those in brain and liver. 1. The enzymes belonging to the pentose phosphate pathway exhibit lower activities in heart than in other tissues throughout development. 2. The pattern of induction of heart cytoplasmic and mitochondrial 'malic' enzymes does not parallel that found in liver. Heart mitochondrial enzyme is slowly induced from birth onwards. 3. NADP+-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase has similar activities in all tissues in 18-day foetuses. 4. Heart mitochondrial NADP+-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase is greatly induced in the adult, where it attains a 10-fold higher activity than in liver. 5. The physiological functions of mitochondrial 'malic' enzyme and NADP+-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase are discussed.  相似文献

In extension of a previous study with yeast glucose-6-P dehydrogenase (Kawaguchi, A., and Bloch, K. (1974) J. Biol. Chem. 249, 5793-5800), the structural changes accompanying the inhibition of glutamate dehydrogenase and several malate dehydrogenases by palmitoyl-CoA and by sodium dodecyl sulfate have been investigated. Palmitoyl-CoA converts liver glutamate dehydrogenase to enzymatically inactive dimeric subunits (Mr = 1.2 X 10(5)) and tightly binds to the dissociated enzyme. Removal of the inhibitor from the palmitoyl-CoA-dimer complex fails to regenerate enzyme activity. The Ki values for palmitoyl-CoA inhibition of malate dehydrogenases (oxalacetate reduction) are, for the enzyme from pig heart mitochondria, 1.8 muM, 500 muM from pig heart supernatant, and 10 muM from chicken heart supernatant. These inhibitions are readily reversible. Palmitoyl-CoA does not alter the quaternary structure of any of the malate dehydrogenases and binds only weakly to these enzymes. Mitochondrial malate dehydrogenase assayed in the direction malate to oxalacetate is much less sensitive to palmitoyl-CoA, with Ki values of 50 muM at pH 10 and greater than 50 muM at pH 7.4. While the differences in palmitoyl-CoA sensitivity in the forward and backward reactions catalyzed by mitochondrial dehydrogenase are unexplained, a physiological rationale for these differential effects is offered. Sodium dodecyl sulfate dissociates the various dehydrogenases to monomeric subunits in contrast to the more selective effects of palmitoyl-CoA.  相似文献

3-Hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase is a lipid-requiring enzyme with an absolute requirement of phosphatidylcholine for enzymatic activity. Purification of the enzyme to homogeneity from bovine heart mitochondria was described more than a decade ago [H. G. Bock and S. Fleischer (1975) J. Biol. Chem. 250, 5774-5781]. We have modified the purification procedure so that it is faster, the yield has been improved, and the specific activity is greater by approximately 50%. The updated procedure has also been applied to isolate the enzyme from rat liver mitochondria. Characteristics of the enzyme from bovine heart and rat liver mitochondria have been compared and found to be similar with respect to: (1) purification characteristics; (2) amino acid composition; (3) pH optimum for enzymatic activity; (4) kinetic characteristics; (5) molecular weight as determined by sedimentation equilibrium in guanidine hydrochloride; (6) peptide maps; (7) immunological cross-reactivity. These studies show that 3-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase from bovine heart and rat liver mitochondria, though similar, are not identical.  相似文献

1. The properties of rat liver and bovine heart R-3-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (BDH) have been extensively studied in the past 20 years, but little is known concerning the biogenesis and the regulation of this dehydrogenase over different species. 2. In addition, controversial results were often reported concerning the activity, the level and the subcellular location of this enzyme in ruminants. 3. BDH activity found in liver and kidney mitochondria from ruminants (cow and sheep) is low, while it is much higher in rat. 4. However, the enzyme activity is detected in microsomes and in cytosol of liver and of kidney cells from ruminants. These activities are not correlated to ketonaemia level. 5. Although low BDH activity is detected in liver mitochondria from ruminants; the bovine liver BDH gene seems to be translated since BDH can be immunodetected by using an antiserum raised against bovine heart BDH. 6. Beside this, the good cross-reactivity between heart BDH and liver BDH suggests their high level of homology in ruminants.  相似文献

The interaction of manganous ions with pig heart triphosphopyridine nucleotide (TPN) specific isocitrate dehydrogenase has been studied by kinetic experiments and by direct ultrafiltration measurements of manganous ion binding. At low metal ion concentrations, a lag is observed in the time-dependent production of reduced triphosphopyridine nucleotide (TPNH) that can be eliminated by adding 20 muM TPNH to the initial reaction mixture. A plot of 1/upsilon vs. 1/ (Mn2+) obtained at relatively high TPNH concentrations (20 muM) is linear and yields of Km value of 2 muM for metal ion, which is comparable to the direct binding constant measured in the presence of isocitrate. A similar plot at low TPNH concentrations (2 muM) reveals a biphasic relationship: at high metal concentrations the points are collinear with those obtained at high levels of TPNH, but at low metal concentrations that line is characterized by a Km of 19 muM for Mn2+. A difference in the deuterium oxide solvent isotope effect on Vmax observed with 20 muM TPNH as compared with 2 muM TPNH suggests that at high TPNH concentrations or high manganous ion concentrations the rate-limiting step is the dehydrogenation of isocitrate, while at low manganous ion concentrations and low TPNH concentrations, the slow step is the decarboxylation of enzyme-bound oxalosuccinate. Evidence to support this hypothesis is provided by the sensitivity to isocitrate concentration of the Km for total manganese measured in the presence of 20 muM TPNH that contrasts with the relative insensitivity to isocitrate of the Km measured at 2 muM TPNH and low manganous ion concentration. Direct measurements of oxalosuccinate decarboxylation reveal that the Vmax and the Km for manganous ion are influenced by the presence of oxidized or reduced TPN with the Km being lowest (5-7 muM) in the presence of TPNH. The dependence of the Km for manganous ion on the presence of substrate, TPN, and TPNH, is responsible for the variation with conditions in the rate-determining step. The enzyme binds only 1 mol of metal ion and 1 mol of isocitrate/mol of protein under all conditions. The pH dependence of the binding of free manganous ion, free isocitrate, and manganous-isocitrate complex indicates differences in the interaction of these species with isocitrate dehydrogenase. These results can be described in terms of two functions for manganous ion in the reactions catalyzed by isocitrate dehydrogenase, each of which requires a distinct binding site for metal ion: in the dehydrogenation step, Mn2+ facilitates the binding of the substrate isocitrate, and in the decarboxylation step it may stabilize the enolate of alpha-ketoglutarate which is generated.  相似文献

Monospecific (affinity-purified) anti-(yeast glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase) IgG inhibits three different NADPH-requiring enzymes, chicken liver dihydrofolate reductase, pigeon liver fatty acid synthetase and chicken liver malic enzyme. The inhibition of all three enzymes was approx. 50% in a 2h incubation with 100 micrograms of IgG. Similarly, with several different NADH-requiring enzymes, an immunocrossreactivity was observed. Monospecific anti-(rabbit muscle glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase) IgG inhibited yeast alcohol dehydrogenase and pig heart malate dehydrogenase by 39% and 55% respectively. The cross-reactivity observed was tested by affinity chromatography. Immunoaffinity columns made with each monospecific IgG were able to bind each of the enzymes it immunotitrated. Enzymes were eluted with a nondenaturing solvent with little loss of activity. The immunoaffinity column with monospecific anti-(glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase) IgG as the bound ligand was also used to purify partially (over 150-fold) both isocitrate dehydrogenase and dihydrofolate reductase from crude rat liver homogenate.  相似文献

The binding of reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) to nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP) dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase from beef liver cytoplasm was studied by several equilibrium techniques (ultracentrifugation, molecular sieving, ultrafiltration, fluorescence). Two binding sites (per dimeric enzyme molecule) were found with slightly different dissociation constants (0.5 and 0.12 muM) and fluorescence yields (7.7 and 6.3). A ternary complex was formed between enzyme, isocitrate, and NADPH, in which NADPH dissociation constant was 5 muM. On the contrary, no binding of NADPH to the enzyme took place in the presence of magnesium isocitrate. Dialysis experiments showed the existence of 1 NADP binding site/dimer, with a dissociation constant of 26 muM. When NADPH was present with the enzyme in the proportion of 1 molecule/dimer, the dissociation constant of NADP was decreased fourfold, reaching a value quantitatively comparable to the Michaelis constant. The kinetics of coenzyme binding was followed using the stopped-flow technique with fluorescence detection. NADPH binding to the enzyme occurred through one fast reaction (k1 = 20 muM-1 s-1). Dissociation of NADPH took place upon NADP binding; however, equilibrium as well as kinetic data were incompatible with a simple competition scheme. Dissociation of NADPH from the enzyme upon magnesium isocitrate binding was preceded by the formation of a transitory ternary complex in which the fluorescence of NADPH was only about 30% of that in the enzyme-NADPH complex. Then interaction between the conenzymes and the involvement of ternary complexes in the catalytic mechanism are discussed in relation with what is known about the regulatory role of the coenzyme (Carlier, M. F., and Pantaloni, D. (1976), Biochemistry, 15, 1761-1766).  相似文献

The aim of the present study was the investigation of the occurrence of NADPH-generating pathways in the endoplasmic reticulum others then hexose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase. A significant isocitrate and a moderate malate-dependent NADP+ reduction were observed in endoplasmic reticulum-derived rat liver microsomes. The isocitrate-dependent activity was very likely attributable to the appearance of the cytosolic isocitrate dehydrogenase isozyme in the lumen. The isocitrate dehydrogenase activity of microsomes was present in the luminal fraction; it showed a strong preference towards NADP+versus NAD+, and it was almost completely latent. Antibodies against the cytosolic isoform of isocitrate dehydrogenase immunorevealed a microsomal protein of identical molecular weight; the microsomal enzyme showed similar kinetic parameters and oxalomalate inhibition as the cytosolic one. Measurable luminal isocitrate dehydrogenase activity was also present in microsomes from rat epididymal fat. The results suggest that isocitrate dehydrogenase is an important NADPH-generating enzyme in the endoplasmic reticulum.  相似文献

The contributions of NAD-specific and NADP-specific isocitrate dehydrogenases to isocitrate oxidation in isolated intact rat liver mitochondria were examined using DL-threo-alpha-methylisocitrate (3-hydroxy-1,2,3-butanetricarboxylate) to specifically inhibit flux through NADP-specific isocitrate dehydrogenase. Under a range of conditions tested with respiring mitochondria, the rate of isocitrate oxidation was decreased by about 20--40% by inhibition of NADP-isocitrate dehydrogenase, and matrix NADP became more oxidized. (a) For mitochondria incubated with externally added DL-isocitrate and citrate, the rate of isocitrate oxidation obtained by extrapolation to infinite alpha-methylisocitrate concentration was approximately 70% of the uninhibited rate in both state 3 and state 4. (b) With pyruvate plus malate added as substrates of citric acid cycle oxidation and isocitrate generated intramitochondrially, a concentration of alpha-methylisocitrate (400 microM) sufficient for 99.99% inhibition of NADP-isocitrate dehydrogenase inhibited isocitrate oxidation in states 4 and 3 by 21 +/- 6% and 19 +/- 11% (mean +/- SEM), respectively. (c) With externally added isocitrate and citrate, the addition of NH4Cl increased isocitrate oxidation by 3--4-fold, decreased NADPH levels by 30--40% and 2-oxoglutarate accumulation by about 40%. The further addition of 600 microM alpha-methylisocitrate decreased the NH4Cl-stimulated isocitrate oxidation by about 40% and decreased NADPH to about 30% of the level prevailing in the absence of NH4Cl; nevertheless, the rate of isocitrate oxidation was still twice as large in the presence of NH4Cl and alpha-methylisocitrate as in their absence. Experiments were also performed with intact mitochondria incubated with respiratory inhibitors to determine additional factors which might affect the flux through the two isocitrate dehydrogenases. (a) In the coupled reduction of acetoacetate by isocitrate, where the rate of reoxidation of reduced pyridine nucleotides is limited by NAD-specific 3-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase, 85--100% of the rate of 3-hydroxybutyrate formation was retained in the presence of 400--900 microM alpha-methylisocitrate. (b) In a system where the rate of isocitrate oxidation is limited by the rate of NADPH reoxidation by glutathione reductase, the rate of glutathione reduction extrapolated to infinite alpha-methylisocitrate concentration was from 20--40% of the uninhibited rate. (c) In the coupled synthesis of glutamate from isocitrate and NH4Cl, where the reoxidation of NADPH and NADH can occur via glutamate dehydrogenase, the rate of glutamate production extrapolated to infinite alpha-methylisocitrate concentration was about 60% of the uninhibited rate.  相似文献

The nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP)-specific isocitrate dehydrogenase from Blastocladiella emersonii was purified. The enzyme was very unstable. Satisfactory stability was obtained in the presence of 0.2% ovalbumin. The enzyme had a molecular weight of about 100,000. It did not exhibit homotropic cooperativity for any of it substrates and was not affected by the allosteric modifiers citrate and adenosine monophosphate, diphosphate, and tri-phosphate. The substrate saturation studies showed both intercept and slope effects in Lineweaver-Burk plots. The Km values for isocitrate and NADP were found to be 20 and 10 muM, respectively. The product inhibition pattern was compatible with a random sequential reaction mechanism. The enzyme catalyzed the oxidative decarboxylation of isocitrate about six times better than the reductive carboxylation of alpha-ketoglutarate. The enzyme was inhibited by glyoxylate plus oxalacetate. Assays conducted in the presence of low Mg2+ concentrations exhibited a lag. This lag could be abolished by the addition of reduced NADP to the assay mixture.  相似文献

Considerable variations were found in the in vitro effect of alloxan on mouse liver enzymes associated with the citric acid cycle. The following approximative alloxan concentrations induced 50% inhibition of enzyme activity: 10(-6)M for aconitase, 10(-4)M for NAD-linked isocitrate dehydrogenase, glutamate dehydrogenase, alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase, succinyl-CoA synthetase and fumarase, and 10(-3)M for citrate synthase and NADP-linked isocitrate dehydrogenase. Pyruvate dehydrogenase, succinate dehydrogenase and malate dehydrogenase were not inhibited by 10(-3)M alloxan. The inhibition of aconitase was competitive both when using mouse liver and purified porcine heart enzyme. The Ki values for the purified enzyme in the presence of 5 microM alloxan were 0.22 microM with citrate, 4.0 microM with cis-aconitate and 0.62 microM with isocitrate as substrate. The high sensitivity of aconitase for inhibition by alloxan probably plays a prominent role for the toxic effects of alloxan.  相似文献

1. The activity of NAD+-linked isocitrate dehydrogenase from the radular muscle of the whelk is higher than those in many vertebrate muscles and only slightly lower than in the flight muscles of insects. The enzyme activity from the whelk (Buccinum undatum) is stable for several hours after homogenization of the radular muscle, whereas that from insect flight muscle is very unstable. Consequently, the enzyme from the whelk muscle is suitable for a systematic investigation of the effects of Ca2+ and ADP. 2. The sigmoid response of the enzyme activity to isocitrate concentration is markedly increased by raising the Ca2+ concentration from 0.001 to 10 muM, but it is decreased by ADP. The inhibitory effect of Ca2+ is most pronounced at pH7.1; it is not observed at pH 6.5. Similar effects are observed for the enzyme from the flight muscle of the locust (Schistocerca gregaria) and the water bug (Lethocerus cordofanus). The percentage activation by ADP of the enzyme from either the whelk or the insects is greater at 10 muM-Ca2+, and 50% of the maximum activation is obtained at 0.10 and 0.16 mM-ADP for the enzyme from whelk and locust respectively at this Ca2+ concentration. At 10 muM-Ca2+ in the absence of added ADP, the apparent Km for isocitrate is markedly higher than in other conditions. Ca2+ concentrations of 0.01, 0.1 and 0.2 muM cause 50% inhibition of maximum activity of the enzyme from the muscles of the whelk, locust and water bug respectively. 3. Recent work has indicated that mitochondria may play a complementary role to the sarcoplasmic reticulum in the control of the distribution of Ca2+ in muscle. The opposite effects of Ca2+ on the activities of isocitrate dehydrogenase and mitochondrial glycerol phosphate dehydrogenase from muscle tissue are consistent with the hypothesis that changes in the intracellular distribution of Ca2+ control the activities of these two enzymes in order to stimulate energy production for the contraction process in the muscle. Although both enzymes are mitochondrial, glycerol phosphate dehydrogenase resides on the outer surface of the inner membrane and responds to sarcoplasmic changes in Ca2+ concentration (i.e. an increase during contraction), whereas the isocitrate dehydrogenase resides in the matrix of the mitochondria and responds to intramitochondrial concentrations of Ca2+ (i.e. a decrease during contraction). It is suggested that changes in intramitochondrial Ca2+ concentrations are primarily responsible for regulation of the activity of NAD+-isocitrate dehydrogenase in order to control energy formation for the contractile process. However, when the muscle is at rest, changes in intramitochondrial concentrations of ADP may regulate energy formation for non-contractile processes.  相似文献

The binding of TPNH to native and chemically modified pig heart TPN-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase was studied by the techniques of ultrafiltration and fluorescence enhancement. A single site (per peptide chain) was found for TPNH with a dissociation constant (KD = 1.45 muM) that is quantitatively comparable to the Michaelis constant. The oxidized coenzyme, TPN+, weakens the binding of TPNH. The substrate manganous isocitrate also inhibits the binding of TPNH and, reciprocally, TPNH inhibits the binding of manganous isocitrate, suggesting that binding to the reduced coenzyme and substrate sites is mutually exclusive. Ultrafiltration experiments with carbonyl [14C]TPN+ revealed the existence of two sites with a dissociation constant (49 muM) more than ten times higher than the Michaelis constant. This observation excludes a random mechanism for isocitrate dehydrogenase or a sequential mechanism in which TPN+ binds first. Four chemically modified isocitrate dehydrogenases have been prepared: enzyme inactivated by reaction of a single methionyl residue with iodoacetate, by modification of a glutamyl residue by glycinamide (in the presence of a water soluble carbodiimide), by reaction of four cysteines successively with 5,5'-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoic acid) and potassium cyanide, or by addition of two cysteine residues to N-ethylmaleimide. These enzymes were tested for their ability to bind TPN+, TPNH, and manganous isocitrate. In the cases of the cysteinyl and glutamyl-modified enzymes, inactivation appears to be due primarily to loss of the ability to bind the substrate manganous isocitrate. In constrast, the methionyl residue may participate in the coenzyme binding site or, more likely, may be involved in a step in catalysis subsequent to binding.  相似文献

The RS-isomers of beta-mercapto-alpha-ketoglutarate, beta-methylmercapto-alpha-ketoglutarate and beta-methylmercapto-alpha-hydroxyglutarate have been synthesized. Beta-Mercapto-alpha-ketoglutarate was a potent inhibitor, competitive with isocitrate and noncompetitive with NADP+, of the mitochondrial NADP-specific isozyme from pig heart (Ki = 5 nM; Km (DL-isocitrate)/Ki(RS-beta-mercapto-alpha-ketoglutarate) = 650) and pig liver, the cytosolic isozyme from pig liver (I0.5 = 23 nM), and the NADP-linked enzymes from yeast (Ki = 58 nM) and Escherichia coli (Ki = 58 nM) at pH 7.4 and with Mg2+ as activator. beta-Mercapto-alpha-ketoglutarate was also an effective inhibitor of NADP-isocitrate-dehydrogenase activity in intact liver mitochondria. beta-Mercapto-alpha-ketoglutarate was a much less potent inhibitor for heart NAD-isocitrate dehydrogenase (Ki = 520 nM) than for the NADP-specific enzyme. beta-Methylmercapto-alpha-ketoglutarate (I0.5 = 10 microM) was a much less effective inhibitor than the beta-mercapto derivative for heart NADP-isocitrate dehydrogenase. The beta-sulfur substituted alpha-ketoglutarates were substrates for the oxidation of NADPH by heart NADP-isocitrate dehydrogenase without requiring CO2. beta-Methylmercapto-alpha-hydroxyglutarate, the expected product of reduction of beta-methylmercapto-alpha-ketoglutarate, did not cause reduction of NADP+ but it was an inhibitor competitive with isocitrate for NADP-isocitrate dehydrogenase. The beta-sulfur substituted alpha-ketoglutarate derivatives were alternate substrates for alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase and the cytosolic and mitochondrial isozymes of heart aspartate aminotransferase but had no effect on glutamate dehydrogenase or alanine aminotransferase.  相似文献

NADP+:isocitrate dehydrogenase has been purified to homogeneity from lactating bovine mammary gland. Purification was achieved through the use of affinity and DEAE-cellulose chromatography. The isolated enzyme gives one band when stained for protein or enzyme activity on discontinuous alkaline gel electrophoresis. The enzyme has a molecular weight of 55,000 as estimated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-gel electrophoresis and a Stokes radius of 4.1 nm as measured by gel chromatography. The enzyme will not use NAD+ in place of NADP+ and has an absolute requirement for divalent cations. The apparent Km values for dl-isocitrate, Mn2+, and NADP+ were found to be 8, 6, and 11 μm, respectively. The Mn2+-ds-isocitrate complex is the most likely substrate for the mammary enzyme with a Km of 3 μm. The properties of mammary NADP+:isocitrate dehydrogenase are compared with those of the homologous enzymes from pig heart and bovine liver, and its characteristics are discussed with respect to the function of the enzyme in lactating mammary gland.  相似文献

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase has been purified 1000-fold from pig liver. This enzyme exists as an active dimer of molecular weight 133,000 and an inactive monomer of molecular weight 67,500. The pH of maximum activity is 8.5 and the ionic strength maximum is 0.1 to 0.5 M. Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase is highly specific for NADP+ and glucose 6-phosphate. Apparent Km values of 3.6 muM and 5.4 muM were obtained for glucose 6-phosphate and NADP+. This enzyme is located almost entirely within the soluble portion of the cellular cytoplasm.  相似文献

In extracts of rat heart mitochondria, Sr2+ mimicked the activatory effects of Ca2+ on the Ca2(+)-sensitive intramitochondrial enzymes, pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphate phosphatase, isocitrate dehydrogenase (NAD+), and 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase, but at about tenfold higher concentrations (effective range approximately 1-100 muM) in each case. Ba2+ had no effect on extracted phosphatase, but did mimic the effect of Ca2+ on the other two enzymes with effective concentration ranges similar to those of Sr2+; as with Ca2+ and Sr2+, effective Ba2+ ranges were slightly (2-3-fold) raised by increases in ATP/ADP. In intact uncoupled rat heart mitochondria, the effects of Sr2+ and Ba2+ on the pyruvate and 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenases were essentially similar to their effects in extracts. In fully coupled rat heart or liver mitochondria, the effective concentration ranges of extramitochondrial Sr2+, leading to activation of the matrix enzymes, were always approximately tenfold higher than those for Ca2+ under all conditions. Ba2+ did not affect pyruvate dehydrogenase in coupled mitochondria, but was shown to activate 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase in heart or liver mitochondria, and also isocitrate dehydrogenase (NAD+) in the latter; effective concentration ranges for extramitochondrial Ba2+ were approximately 100-fold greater than those for Ca2+, and like those for Ca2+ and Sr2+, were affected markedly by Mg2+ and spermine (which inhibit and promote mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake, respectively) but, in contrast to Ca2+ and Sr2+, they were hardly affected at all by Na+ (which promotes mitochondrial Ca2+ egress). Ba2+ effects were also blocked by ruthenium red (an inhibitor of mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake), but not so effectively as its blockage of the effects of Sr2+ and Ca2+. Ba2+ and Sr2+ both mimicked the inhibitory effects of extramitochondrial Ca2+ on the Na+/Ca2+ exchanger, but only Sr2+ could mimic Ca2+ in exchanging for internal Ca2+ by this mechanism. Both Sr2+ and Ba2+ changed the fluorescent properties of fura-2 or indo-1 in a similar manner to Ca2+, but with higher kd values. In fura-2-loaded rat heart mitochondria, increases in matrix Sr2+ and Ba2+ and the effects of the transport effectors could be readily demonstrated.  相似文献

The specific activity of a peroxisomal enzyme, lactate oxidase, and of pyruvate kinase and lactate dehydrogenase, which are not peroxisomal, increased rapidly when shaken cultures of Tetrahymena were transferred to conditions of oxygen restriction and supplemented with glucose. Two other peroxisomal enzymes, catalase and TPN-linked isocitrate dehydrogenase, did not increase substantially, nor did succinate dehydrogenase. The increases were reduced if glucose was not added at the time of transfer, and were prevented by actinomycin D or cycloheximide, but not by chloramphenicol. The results suggest an involvement of peroxisomes in the metabolism of glycolytic endproducts when the availability of oxygen to the cell is limiting.  相似文献

1. Toluene-permeabilized rat heart mitochondria have been used to study the regulation of NAD+-linked isocitrate dehydrogenase and 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase by Ca2+, adenine and nicotinamide nucleotides, and to compare the properties of the enzymes in situ, with those in mitochondrial extracts. 2. Although K0.5 values (concn. giving half-maximal effect) for Ca2+ of 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase were around 1 microM under all conditions, corresponding values for NAD+-linked isocitrate dehydrogenase were in the range 5-43 microM. 3. For both enzymes, K0.5 values for Ca2+ observed in the presence of ATP were 3-10-fold higher than those in the presence of ADP, with values increasing over the ADP/ATP range 0.0-1.0. 4. 2-Oxoglutarate dehydrogenase was less sensitive to inhibition by NADH when assayed in permeabilized mitochondria than in mitochondrial extracts. Similarly, the Km of NAD+-linked isocitrate dehydrogenase for threo-Ds-isocitrate was lower in permeabilized mitochondria than in extracts under all the conditions investigated. 5. It is concluded that in the intact heart Ca2+ activation of NAD+-linked isocitrate dehydrogenase may not necessarily occur in parallel with that of the other mitochondrial Ca2+-sensitive enzymes, 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase and the pyruvate dehydrogenase system.  相似文献
