Leaves on transgenic tobacco plants expressing yeast-derived invertase in the apoplast develop clearly demarcated green and bleached sectors when they mature. The green areas contain low levels of soluble sugars and starch which are turned over on a daily basis, and have high rates of photosynthesis and low rates of respiration. The pale areas accumulate carbohydrate, photosynthesis is inhibited, and respiration increases. This provides a model system to investigate the sink regulation of photosynthetic metabolism by accumulating carbohydrate. The inhibition of photosynthesis is accompanied by a decrease of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate and glycerate-3-phosphate, and an increase of triosephosphate and fructose-1,6-bisphosphate. The extracted activities of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase, fructose-1, 6-bisphosphatase and NADP-glyeraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase decreased. The activity of sucrose-phosphate synthase remained high or increased, an increased portion of the photosynthate was partitioned into soluble sugars rather than starch, and the pale areas showed few or no oscillations during transitions between darkness and saturating light in saturating CO2. The increased rate of respiration was accompanied by an increased level of hexose-phosphates, triose-phosphates and fructose-1,6-bisphosphate while glycerate-3-phosphate and phosphoenolpyruvate decreased and pyruvate increased. The activities of pyruvate kinase, phosphofructokinase and pyrophosphate: fructose-6-phosphate phosphotransferase increased two- to four-fold. We conclude that an increased level of carbohydrate leads to a decreased level of Calvin-cycle enzymes and, thence, to an inhibition of photosynthesis. It also leads to an increased level of glycolytic enzymes and, thence, to a stimulation of respiration. These changes of enzymes are more important in middle- or long-term adjustments to high carbohydrate levels in the leaf than fine regulation due to depletion of inorganic phosphate or high levels of phosphorylated metabolites.Abbreviations Fru 1,6bisP fructose-1,6-bisphosphate - Fru 1,6bisPase fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase - Fru6P fructose-6-phosphate - Glc 1P glucose-1-phosphate - Glc6P glucose-6-phosphate - NADP-GAPDH NADP-dependent glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase - PFK phosphofructokinase - PEP phosphoenolpyruvate - PFP pyrophosphate:fructose-6-phosphate phosphotransferase - PGA glycerate-3-phosphate - PK pyruvate kinase - Pi inorganic phosphate - Ru1,5bisP ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate - Rubisco ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase-oxygenase - SPS sucrose-phosphate synthase - triose-P triose-phosphates  相似文献

Yeast glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GPDH) covalently attached to CNBr-activated Sepharose 4B was shown to be capable of binding soluble yeast phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK) in the course of incubation in the presence of an excess of 1,3-diphosphoglycerate. The association of the matrix-bound and soluble enzymes also occurred if the kinase was added to a reaction mixture in which the immobilized glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, NAD, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate and Pi had been preincubated. Three kinase molecules were bound per a tetramer of the immobilized dehydrogenase and one molecule per a dimer. An immobilized monomer of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase was incapable of binding phosphoglycerate kinase. The matrix-bound bienzyme complexes were stable enough to survive extensive washings with a buffer and could be used repeatedly for activity determinations. Experimental evidence is presented to support the conclusion that 1,3-diphosphoglycerate produced by the kinase bound in a complex can dissociate into solution and be utilized by the dehydrogenase free of phosphoglycerate kinase.  相似文献

The maximum extractable activities of twenty-one photosynthetic and glycolytic enzymes were measured in mature leaves of Mesembryanthemum crystallinum plants, grown under a 12 h light 12 h dark photoperiod, exhibiting photosynthetic characteristics of either a C3 or a Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) plant. Following the change from C3 photosynthesis to CAM in response to an increase in the salinity of in the rooting medium from 100 mM to 400 mM NaCl, the activity of phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) carboxylase (EC 4.1.1.31) increased about 45-fold and the activities of NADP malic enzyme (EC 1.1.1.40) and NAD malic enzyme (EC 1.1.1.38) increased about 4- to 10-fold. Pyruvate, Pi dikinase (EC 2.7.9.1) was not detected in the non-CAM tissue but was present in the CAM tissue; PEP carboxykinase (EC 4.1.1.32) was detected in neither tissue. The induction of CAM was also accompanied by large increases in the activities of the glycolytic enzymes enolase (EC 4.2.1.11), phosphoglyceromutase (EC 2.7.5.3), phosphoglycerate kinase (EC 2.7.2.3), NAD glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.12), and glucosephosphate isomerase (EC 2.6.1.2). There were 1.5- to 2-fold increases in the activities of NAD malate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.37), alanine and aspartate aminotransferases (EC 2.6.1.2 and 2.6.1.1 respectively) and NADP glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.13). The activities of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate (RuBP) carboxylase (EC 4.1.1.39), fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (EC 3.1.3.11), phosphofructokinase (EC 2.7.1.11), hexokinase (EC 2.7.1.2) and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.49) remained relatively constant. NADP malate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.82) activity exhibited two pH optima in the non-CAM tissue, one at pH 6.0 and a second at pH 8.0. The activity at pH 8.0 increased as CAM was induced. With the exceptions of hexokinase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, the activities of all enzymes examined in extracts from M. crystallinum exhibiting CAM were equal to, or greater than, those required to sustain the maximum rates of carbon flow during acidification and deacidification observed in vivo. There was no day-night variation in the maximum extractable activities of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase, NADP malic enzyme, NAD malic enzyme, fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase and NADP malate dehydrogenase in leaves of M. crystallinum undergoing CAM.Abbreviations CAM Crassulacean acid metabolism - PEP phosphoenolpyruvate - RuBP ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate  相似文献

The possibility of a functional complex formation between glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.12) and 3-phosphoglycerate kinase (EC. 2.7.2.3), enzymes catalysing two consecutive reactions in glycolysis has been investigated. Kinetic analysis of the coupled enzymatic reaction did not reveal any kinetic sign of the assumed interaction up to 4 X 10(-6) M kinase and 10(-4) M dehydrogenase. Fluorescence anisotrophy of 10(-7) M or 2 X 10(-5) M glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase labeled with fluorescein isothiocynate did not change in the presence of non-labeled 3-phosphoglycerate kinase (up to 4 X 10(-5) M). The frontal gel chromatographic analysis of a mixture of the two enzymes (10(-4) M dehydrogenase) could not reveal any molecular species with the kinase activity having a molecular weight higher than that of 3-phosphoglycerate kinase. Both types of physicochemical measurements were also performed in the presence of substrates of the kinase and gave the same results. The data seem to invalidate the hypothesis that there is a complex between purified pig muscle glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and 3-phosphoglycerate kinase.  相似文献

Interactions of glucose-6-phosphate isomerase (D-glucose-6-phosphate ketol-isomerase, EC 5.3.1.9), aldolase (D-fructose-1,6-bisphosphate D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate lyase, EC 4.1.2.13), glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate:NAD+ oxidoreductase (phosphorylating), EC 1.2.1.12), triose-phosphate isomerase (D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate ketol-isomerase, EC 5.3.1.1), phosphoglycerate mutase (D-phosphoglycerate 2,3-phosphomutase, EC 5.4.2.1), phosphoglycerate kinase (ATP:3-phospho-D-glycerate 1-phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.3), enolase (2-phospho-D-glycerate hydro-lyase, EC 4.2.1.11), pyruvate kinase (ATP:Pyruvate O2-phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.40) and lactate dehydrogenase [S)-lactate:NAD+ oxidoreductase, EC 1.1.1.27) with F-actin, among the glycolytic enzymes listed above, and with phosphofructokinase (ATP:D-fructose-6-phosphate 1-phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.11) were studied in the presence of poly(ethylene glycol). Both purified rabbit muscle enzymes and rabbit muscle myogen, a high-speed supernatant fraction containing the glycolytic enzymes, were used to study enzyme-F-actin interactions. Following ultracentrifugation, F-actin and poly(ethylene glycol) tended to increase and KCl to decrease the pelleting of enzymes. In general, the greater part of the pelleting occurred in the presence of both F-actin and poly(ethylene glycol) and the absence of KCl. Enzymes that pelleted more in myogen preparations than as individual purified enzymes in the presence of poly(ethylene glycol) and the absence of F-actin were tested for specific enzyme-enzyme associations, several of which were observed. Such interactions support the view that the internal cell structure is composed of proteins that interact with one another to form the microtrabecular lattice.  相似文献

The inhibition of photosynthesis after supplying glucose to detached leaves of spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) was used as a model system to search for mechanisms which potentially contribute to the sink regulation of photosynthesis. Detached leaves were supplied with 50 mM glucose or water for 7 d through the transpiration stream, holding the leaves in low irradiance (16 mol photons · m–2 · s–1) and a cycle of 9 h light/15 h darkness to prevent any endogenous accumulation of carbohydrate. Leaves supplied with water only showed marginal changes of photosynthesis, respiration, enzyme levels or metabolites. When leaves were supplied with 50 mM glucose, photosynthesis was gradually inhibited over several days. The inhibition was most marked when photosynthesis was measured in saturating irradiance and ambient CO2, less marked in saturating irradiance and saturating CO2, and least marked in limiting irradiance. There was a gradual loss of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase-oxygenase (Rubisco) protein, fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase, NADP-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and chlorophyll. The inhibition of photosynthesis was accompanied by a large decrease of glycerate-3-phosphate, an increase of triose-phosphates and fructose-1,6-bisphospate, and a small decrease of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate. The stromal NADPH/NADP ratio increased (as indicated by increased activation of NADP-malate dehydrogenase), and the ATP/ADP ratio increased. Chlorophyll-fluorescence analysis indicated that thylakoid energisation was increased, and that the acceptor side of photosystem II was more reduced. Similar results were obtained when glucose was supplied by floating leaf discs in low irradiance on glucose solution, and when detached spinach leaves were held in high light to produce an endogenous accumulation of carbohydrate. Feeding glucose also led to an increased rate of respiration. This was not accompanied by any changes of pyruvate kinase, phosphofructokinase, or pyrophosphate: fructose-6-phosphate phosphotransferase activity. There was a decrease of phosphoenolpyruvate, glycerate-3-phosphate and glycerate-2-phosphate, an increase of pyruvate and triose-phosphates, and an increased ATP/ADP ratio. These results show (i) that accumulation of carbohydrate can inhibit photosynthesis via a long-term mechanism involving a decrease of Rubisco and other Calvin-cycle enzymes and (ii) that respiration is stimulated due to an unknown mechanism, which increases the utilisation of phosphoenolpyruvate.Abbreviations and Symbols Ci CO2 concentration in the air space within the leaf - Fm fluorescence yield with a saturating pulse in dark-adapted material - Fo ground level of fluorescence using a weak non-actinic modulated beam in the dark - Fru1,6bisP fructose-1,6-bisphosphate - Fru1,6Pase fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase - Fru2,6bisP fructose-2,6-bisphosphate - IRGA infrared gas analyser - NAD-MDH NAD-dependent malate dehydrogenase - NADP-MDH NADP-dependent malate dehydrogenase - NADP-GAPDH NADP-dependent glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase - PEP phosphoenolpyruvate - PFK phospho-fructokinase - PFP pyrophospate: fructose-6-phosphate-phosphotransferase - 3-PGA glycerate-3-phospate - Pi inorganic phosphate - Ru1,5bisP ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate - Rubisco ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase-oxygenase - triose-phosphates sum of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate and dihydroxyacetone phosphate This research was supported by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (SFB 137).  相似文献

Summary An albino seedling of Zea mays L. was investigated for its potential for CO2-assimilation. In the mesophyll the number, dimensions and fine structure of chloroplasts are drastically reduced but to a lesser extent in the bundle sheath. Chlorophyll concentration is zero and carotenoid concentration almost zero. Albinism also exerts a strong influence on the stroma of bundle sheath chloroplasts; ribulose-1.5-biphosphate carboxylase (EC 4.1.1.39) activity and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (NADP) (EC 1.2.1.13) activity is not detectable. The C4-enzymes phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (EC 4.1.1.31) and malate dehydrogenase (decarboxylating) (EC 1.1.1.40) and the non-photosynthetic linked enzymes malate dehydrogenase (NAD) (EC 1.1.1.37), aspartate-2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase (EC 1.1.1.37), aspartate-2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase (EC 2.6.1.1.) and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (NAD) (EC 1.2.1.1.) are present in the albino seedling with activities comparable to those in etiolated maize seedlings. The potential for CO2 fixation of the albino seedlings exceeds that of comparable dark seedlings considerably. The results are discussed with regard to enzyme localization of the C4 pathway of photosynthesis.Abbreviations Aspartate aminotransferase L-aspartate-2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase-EC 2.6.1.1. - GAPDH (NAD) glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (NAD dep.)-EC 1.2.1.12 - GAPDH (NADP) glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (NADP dep.)-EC 1.2.1.13 - malic enzyme malate dehydrogenase (NADP dep., decarboxylating)-EC 1.1.1.40 - MDH malate dehydrogenase (NAD dep.)-1.1.1.37 - PEP carboxylase phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase-EC 4.1.1.31 - RuDP carboxylase ribulose-1.5-biphosphate carboxylase-EC 4.1.1.39  相似文献

A general method for the assay of enzymes which produce ATP, or are susceptible to be coupled to ATP-producing enzymes, is described. We have applied it to the assay of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and enolase. For these enzymes, the product of the reaction, 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate or phosphoenolpyruvate, were coupled to ADP and either phosphoglycerate kinase or pyruvate kinase, respectively. The ATP formed in both cases is used by hexokinase plus labeled glucose to produce labeled glucose 6-phosphate which is quantitatively separated in small Dowex 1 columns and measured by liquid scintillation spectrometry. The conditions described permitted the detection of 0.1 mU of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase or enolase. As a further example of the sensitivity of the radioassay, effluents of a CM-cellulose column charged with an extract prepared from one single frog oocyte were analyzed and shown to contain a single enolase and two glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase fractions.  相似文献

The time course of the conversion of 3-phospho-D-glycerate (GriP) to glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (GraP) catalyzed by 3-phospho-D-glycerate kinase (GriP kinase) and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GraPDH) couple has been reinvestigated. The dependence of the steady-state rate on the dehydrogenase concentration is fully compatible with the consecutive nature of the reaction and therefore is not necessarily related to a complex formation of the two enzymes. To derive a Kd value of a bienzyme complex, as was done by Sukhodolets et al. [Sukhodolets, M. V., Muronetz, V. I. & Nagradova, N. K. (1987) Biochem. Int. 15, 373-379], is basically erroneous. In contrast with some previous reports, the maximal activity of GriP kinase is not influenced by the auxiliary enzyme present in the coupled assay system. Thus, no special accelerating effect can be attributed to GraPDH. 1,3-Bisphospho-D-glycerate (GriP2) bound to GriP kinase does not seem to be a substrate for GraPDH, providing evidence against channelling of GriP2 between the two enzymes.  相似文献

The patterns of seasonal variation of enzyme levels in the brown alga Laminaria hyperborea (Gunn.) Fosl. have been investigated for the following enzymes: Ribulosebisphosphate-carboxylase (EC 4.1.1.39), phosphoenolpyruvate-carboxykinase (EC 4.1.1.32), glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate-dehydrogenase (NADP dep., EC 1.2.1.12), malate-dehydrogenase (NAD dep., EC 1.1.1.37), L-aspartate-2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase (EC 2.6.1.1), and mannitol-l-phosphate-dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.17). The first four enzymes exhibit a circannual periodicity, characterized by a pronounced spring-maximum of enzyme activity in April and May. As a consequence, the phylloid can maintain high metabolic rates from early spring on, although water temperature has then only slightly risen above the annual minimum. This findings is discussed in relationship to the growth- and developmental cycle of L. hyperborea and to the seasonal variation of photosynthesis and light-independent CO2-fixation. The seasonal pattern, outlined above, correlates well with the circannual fluctuations of the nitrogen content of the sea and with the variation of the internal nitrogen- and nitrate-content of the alga. This coincidence may indicate that nitrogen levels play an important role in the regulation of enzyme activities and, hence, the metabolic capacities of L. hyperborea.Abbreviations PEPCK phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (EC 4.1.1.32) - RUBPC ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase (EC 4.1.1.39) - GAPDH (NADP dep.) glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (NADP dependent) (EC 1.2.1.12) - MDH (NAD dep.) malate dehydrogenase (NAD dependent) (EC 1.1.1.37) - AAT L-aspartate-2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase (EC 2.6.1.1) - Mannitol-1-P DH mannitol-1-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.17) - LIF lightindependent CO2-fixation - DHAP dihydroacetone phosphate - PEP phosphoenolpyruvate - 3-PGA 3-phosphoglycerate - OAA oxaloacetate  相似文献

The combination of binding and kinetic approaches is suggested to study (i) the mechanism of substrate-modulated dynamic enzyme associations; (ii) the specificity of enzyme interactions. The effect of complex formation between aldolase and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate:NAD+ oxidoreductase (phosphorylating), EC 1.2.1.12) on aldolase catalysis was investigated under pseudo-first-order conditions. No change in kcat but a significant increase in KM of fructose 1,6-bisphosphate for aldolase was found when both enzymes were obtained from muscle. In contrast, kcat rather than KM changed if dehydrogenase was isolated from yeast. Next, the conversion of fructose 1-phosphate was not affected by interactions between enzyme couples isolated from muscle. The influence of fructose phosphates on the enzyme-complex formation was studied by means of covalently attached fluorescent probe. We found that the interaction ws not perturbed by the presence of fructose 1-phosphate; however, fructose 1,6-bisphosphate altered the dissociation constant of the enzyme complex. A molecular model for fructose 1,6-bisphosphate-modulated enzyme interaction has been evaluated which suggests that high levels of fructose bisphosphate would drive the formation of the 'channelling' complex between aldolase and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase.  相似文献

Sepharose-bound tetrameric, dimeric and monomeric forms of yeast glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase were prepared, as well as immobilized hybrid species containing (by selective oxidation of an active center cysteine residue with H2O2) one inactivated subunit per tetramer or dimer. The catalytic properties of these enzyme forms were compared in the forward reaction (glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate oxidation) and reverse reaction (1,3-bisphosphoglycerate reductive dephosphorylation) under steady-state conditions. In the reaction of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate oxidation, immobilized monomeric and tetrameric forms exhibited similar specific activities. The hybrid-modified dimer contributed on half of the total activity of a native dimer. The tetramer containing one modified subunit possessed 75% of the activity of an unmodified tetramer. In the reaction of 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate reductive dephosphorylation, the specific activity of the monomeric enzyme species was nearly twice as high as that of the tetramer, suggesting that only one-half of the active centers of the oligomer were acting simultaneously. Subunit cooperativity in catalysis persisted in an isolated dimeric species. The specific activity of a monomer associated with a peroxide-inactivated monomer in a dimer was equal to that of an isolated monomeric species and twice as high as that of a native immobilized dimer. The specific activity of subunits associated with a peroxide-inactivated subunit in a tetramer did not differ from that of a native immobilized tetramer; this indicates that interdimeric interactions are involved in catalytic subunit cooperativity. A complex was formed between the immobilized glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and soluble phosphoglycerate kinase. Three monomers of phosphoglycerate kinase were bound per tetramer of the dehydrogenase and one per dimer. Evidence is presented that if the reductive dephosphorylation of 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate proceeds in the phosphoglycerate kinase - glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase complex, all active sites of the latter enzyme act independently, i.e. subunit cooperativity is abolished.  相似文献

We report here a method for the isolation of high specific activity phosphoglycerate kinase (EC 2.7.2.3) from chloroplasts. The enzyme has been purified over 200-fold from pea (Pisum sativum L.) stromal extracts to apparent homogeneity with 23% recovery. Negative cooperativity is observed with the two enzyme phosphoglycerate kinase/glyceraldehyde-3-P dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.13) couple restored from the purified enzymes when NADPH is the reducing pyridine nucleotide, consistent with earlier results obtained with crude chloroplastic extracts (J Macioszek, LE Anderson [1987] Biochim Biophys Acta 892: 185-190). Michaelis Menten kinetics are observed when 3-phosphoglycerate is held constant and phosphoglycerate kinase is varied, which suggests that phosphoglycerate kinase-bound 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate may be the preferred substrate for glyceraldehyde-3-P dehydrogenase in the chloroplast.  相似文献

Yeast glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate:NAD+ oxidoreductase (phosphorylating), EC 1.2.1.12) immobilized on CNBr-activated Sepharose 4-B has been subjected to dissociation to obtain matrix-bound dimeric species of the enzyme. Hybridization was then performed using soluble glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase isolated from rat skeletal muscle. Immobilized hybrid tetramers thus obtained were demonstrated to exhibit two distinct pH-optima of activity characteristic of the yeast and muscle enzymes, respectively. The results indicate that under appropriate conditions the activity of each of the dimers composing the immobilized hybrid tetramer can be studied separately.  相似文献

Glycolytic enzyme interactions with tubulin and microtubules   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
Interactions of the glycolytic enzymes glucose-6-phosphate isomerase, aldolase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, triose-phosphate isomerase, enolase, phosphoglycerate mutase, phosphoglycerate kinase, pyruvate kinase, lactate dehydrogenase type-M, and lactate dehydrogenase type-H with tubulin and microtubules were studied. Lactate dehydrogenase type-M, pyruvate kinase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, and aldolase demonstrated the greatest amount of co-pelleting with microtubules. The presence of 7% poly(ethylene glycol) increased co-pelleting of the latter four enzymes and two other enzymes, glucose-6-phosphate isomerase, and phosphoglycerate kinase with microtubules. Interactions also were characterized by fluorescence anisotropy. Since the KD values of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, pyruvate kinase and lactate dehydrogenase for tubulin and microtubules were all found to be between 1 and 4 microM, which is in the range of enzyme concentration in cells, these enzymes are probably bound to microtubules in vivo. These observations indicate that interactions of cytosolic proteins, such as the glycolytic enzymes, with cytoskeletal components, such as microtubules, may play a structural role in the formation of the microtrabecular lattice.  相似文献

A new approach is described to identify the mechanism of transfer of intermediates of consecutive reactions catalysed by two functionally related enzymes. Interactions resulting in conformational changes of the individual enzymes and/or channelling of the intermediate can be identified by comparing the rate constants of the coupled and individual reactions. Using these kinetic parameters, the relative specific radioactivity of the end product can be calculated according to the different mechanisms. The comparison of these values with the experimentally determined relative specific radioactivity enhances the sensitivity of the determination. The interaction between aldolase (D-fructose-1,6-bisphosphate D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate-lyase, EC 4.1.2.13) and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate:NAD+ oxidoreductase (phosphorylating), EC 1.2.1.12) was analysed. The data agree with the model in which channeling of the intermediate was assumed. The results suggest that glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate is functionally compartmentalised within the reconstituted enzyme system, which may be relevant under physiological conditions.  相似文献

Substrate interaction and product inhibition kinetics of the forward reaction of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (NADP) (EC 1.2.1.13) from Sinapis alba suggest an Uni Uni Uni Bi Ping Pong mechanism (NAD(P)H on, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate off, 1,3-diphosphoglycerate on, phosphate off, NAD(P)+ off) with an apparent Theorell Chance displacement between 1,3-diphosphoglycerate and phosphate. The proposed mechanism predicts the existence of stable enzyme-NAD(P)+ and acyl-enzyme complexes as obligatory intermediates. A comparison of the present findings on the NADP-enzyme with an earlier kinetic analysis of the NAD-specific enzyme from plants (EC 1.2.1.12) by other authors shows that the kinetic mechanisms for the two enzymes, although similar in principle (both show Ping Pong kinetics), differ in some details.  相似文献

Compartmentalized ATP synthesis in skeletal muscle triads.   总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9  
Isolated skeletal muscle triads contain a compartmentalized glycolytic reaction sequence catalyzed by aldolase, triosephosphate isomerase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, and phosphoglycerate kinase. These enzymes express activity in the structure-associated state leading to synthesis of ATP in the triadic junction upon supply of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate or fructose 1,6-bisphosphate. ATP formation occurs transiently and appears to be kinetically compartmentalized, i.e., the synthesized ATP is not in equilibrium with the bulk ATP. The apparent rate constants of the aldolase and the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase/phosphoglycerate kinase reaction are significantly increased when fructose 1,6-bisphosphate instead of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate is employed as substrate. The observations suggest that fructose 1,6-bisphosphate is especially effectively channelled into the junctional gap. The amplitude of the ATP transient is decreasing with increasing free [Ca2+] in the range of 1 nM to 30 microM. In the presence of fluoride, the ATP transient is significantly enhanced and its declining phase is substantially retarded. This observation suggests utilization of endogenously synthesized ATP in part by structure associated protein kinases and phosphatases which is confirmed by the detection of phosphorylated triadic proteins after gel electrophoresis and autoradiography. Endogenous protein kinases phosphorylate proteins of apparent Mr 450,000, 180,000, 160,000, 145,000, 135,000, 90,000, 54,000, 51,000, and 20,000, respectively. Some of these phosphorylated polypeptides are in the Mr range of known phosphoproteins involved in excitation-contraction coupling of skeletal muscle, which might give a first hint at the functional importance of the sequential glycolytic reactions compartmentalized in triads.  相似文献

Mild oxidation of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase in the presence of hydrogen peroxide leads to oxidation of some of the active site cysteine residues to sulfenic acid derivatives, resulting in the induction of acylphosphatase activity. The reduced active sites of the enzyme retain the ability to oxidize glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate yielding 1,3-diphosphoglycerate, while the oxidized active sites catalyze irreversible cleavage of 1,3-diphosphoglycerate. It was assumed that the oxidation of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase by different physiological oxidants must accelerate glycolysis due to uncoupling of the reactions of oxidation and phosphorylation. It was shown that the addition of hydrogen peroxide to the mixture of glycolytic enzymes or to the muscle extract increased production of lactate, decreasing the yield of ATP. A similar effect was observed in the presence of non-phosphorylating glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase catalyzing irreversible oxidation of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate into 3-phosphoglycerate. A role of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase in regulation of glycolysis is discussed.  相似文献

Abstract— Cat sciatic nerves were exposed to iodoacetate for a period of 5–10 min and after washing out the iodoacetate, the enzymes, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase ( d -glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate: NAD oxidoreductase (phosphorylating); EC 1.2.1.12) and lactate dehydrogenase ( l -lactate: NAD oxidoreductase; EC 1.1.1.27) were extracted from the high-speed supernatant fraction of nerve homogenates. Concentrations of iodoacetate as low as 2.5 m m could completely block activity of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase but had no effect on lactate dehydrogenase. These findings are in accord with the classical concept shown earlier for muscle that iodoacetate blocks glycolysis by its action on glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase. A complete block of activity of the enzyme was found after treatment with 2 to 5 m m -iodoacetate for a period of 10 min and such blocks were irreversible for at least 3 h. Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase activity was NAD specific, with NADP unable to substitute for NAD. The results are discussed in relation to the effect of iodoacetate in blocking glycolysis and in turn the fast axoplasmic transport of materials in mammalian nerve.  相似文献
