Chloroplast ferredoxin-NADP(+) reductase has a 32,000-fold preference for NADPH over NADH, consistent with its main physiological role of NADP(+) photoreduction for de novo carbohydrate biosynthesis. Although it is distant from the 2'-phosphoryl group of NADP(+), replacement of the C-terminal tyrosine (Tyr(308) in the pea enzyme) by Trp, Phe, Gly, and Ser produced enzyme forms in which the preference for NADPH over NADH was decreased about 2-, 10-, 300-, and 400-fold, respectively. Remarkably, in the case of the Y308S mutant, the k(cat) value for the NADH-dependent activity approached that of the NADPH-dependent activity of the wild-type enzyme. Furthermore, difference spectra of the NAD(+) complexes revealed that the nicotinamide ring of NAD(+) binds at nearly full occupancy in the active site of both the Y308G and Y308S mutants. These results correlate well with the k(cat) values obtained with these mutants in the NADH-ferricyanide reaction. The data presented support the hypothesis that specific recognition of the 2'-phosphate group of NADP(H) is required but not sufficient to ensure a high degree of discrimination against NAD(H) in ferredoxin-NADP(+) reductase. Thus, the C-terminal tyrosine enhances the specificity of the reductase for NADP(H) by destabilizing the interaction of a moiety common to both coenzymes, i.e. the nicotinamide. 相似文献

Hepatic NADH-cytochrome b5 reductase was reduced by 1 mol of dithionite or NADH per mol of enzyme-bound FAD, without forming a stable semiquinone or intermediate during the titrations. However, the addition of NAD+ to the partially reduced enzyme or illumination in the presence of both NAD+ and EDTA yielded a new intermediate. The intermediate had an absorption band at 375 nm and the optical spectrum resembled anionic semiquinones seen on reduction of other flavin enzymes. Electron paramagnetic resonance measurements confirmed the free-radical nature of the species. To explain the results, a disproportionation reaction between the oxidized and reduced NAD+ complexes (E-FAD-NAD+ + E-FADH2-NAD+ in equilibrium 2E-FADH.-NAD+) is assumed. Potentiometric titration of NADH-cytochrome b5 reductase at pH 7.0 with dithionite gave a midpoint potential of -258 mV; titration with NADH gave -160 mV. This difference may be due to a difference in the relative affinity of NAD+ for the reduced and oxidized forms of the enzyme. The effects of pH on the midpoint potential of the NAD+-free enzyme were very similar to those which have been measured with free FAD. At pH 7.0, midpoint potentials of trypsin-solubilized and detergent-solubilized cytochrome b5 were 13 and 0 mV, respectively. 相似文献

Age-dependent decrease in cytochrome b5 was observed in erythrocytes from both a normal person and a patient with hereditary methaemoglobinaemia without neurological symptoms. With aging, concentrations of cytochrome b5 in erythrocytes from the patient were almost the same as those in the control. Age-dependent decrease in cytochrome b5 reductase activity in the control erythrocytes was also shown; however, the reductase activity was very low in erythrocytes from the patient over the whole age range. Our studies show that methaemoglobin content of erythrocytes seems to be dependent on the content of cytochrome b5 in the cells, both in the control subject and in the patient. 相似文献

Simultaneous purification and characterization of cytochrome b5 reductase and cytochrome b5 from sheep liver 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Cytochrome b5 was purified from detergent solubilized sheep liver microsomes by using three successive DEAE-cellulose, and Sephadex G-100 column chromatographies. It was purified 54-fold and the yield was 23.5% with respect to microsomes. The apparent Mr of cytochrome b5 was estimated to be 16,200 +/- 500 by SDS-PAGE. Absolute absorption spectrum of the purified cytochrome b5 showed maximal absorption at 412 nm and dithionite-reduced cytochrome b5 gave peaks at 557, 526.5 and 423 nm. The ability of the purified sheep liver cytochrome b5 to transfer electrons from NADH-cytochrome b5 reductase to cytochrome c was investigated. The K(m) and Vmax values were calculated to be 0.088 microM cytochrome b5 and 315.8 microM cytochrome c reduced/min/mg enzyme, respectively. Also the reduction of cytochrome b5 by reductase was studied and K(m) and Vmax values were determined to be 5 microM cytochrome b5 and 5200 nmol cytochrome b5 reduced/min/mg enzyme, respectively. The K(m) and Vmax values for the cofactor NADH in the presence of saturating concentration of cytochrome b5 were found to be 0.0017 mM NADH and 6944 nmol cytochrome b5 reduced/min/mg enzyme, respectively. NADH-cytochrome b5 reductase was also partially purified from the same source, detergent solubilized sheep liver microsomes, by using two successive DEAE-cellulose, and 5'-ADP-agarose affinity column chromatographies. It was purified 144-fold and the yield was 7% with respect to microsomes. The apparent monomer Mr of reductase was estimated to be 34,000 by SDS-PAGE. When ferricyanide was used as an electron acceptor, reductase showed maximum activity between 6.8 and 7.5. The K(m) and Vmax values of the enzyme for ferricyanide were calculated as 0.024 mM ferricyanide and 673 mumol ferricyanide reduced/min/mg enzyme, respectively. The K(m) and Vmax values for the cofactor NADH in the presence of saturating amounts of ferricyanide were found to be 0.020 mM NADH and 699 mumol ferricyanide reduced/min/mg enzyme, respectively. 相似文献

NADPH-cytochrome c reductase also reduces cytochrome b 5. The reduction is very slow when the proteins are in solution or bound to different membranes. Only when both proteins share a common membrane, is cytochrome b 5 reduced rapidly by NADPH. The difference in reaction rates indicates recombination on a common membrane of cytochrome b 5 and NADPH reductase originally bound to different vesicles. The recombination of the two proteins occurs with a variety of biological membranes (previously enriched with either reductase or cytochrome b 5) as well as with liposomes. We explain this process as protein transfer rather than vesicle fusion for several reasons: 1. The vesicles do not alter shape or size during incubation. 2. The rate of this process corresponds to the rate of incorporation of the single proteins into liposomes carrying the 'complementary' protein. 3. The exchange of proteins between biological membranes and liposomes occupied by protein does not change the density of either membrane. Protein transfer between membranes appears to be limited to those proteins which had spontaneously recombined with a preformed membrane. In contrast, proteins incorporated into liposomes by means of a detergent were not transferred, nor were endogenous cytochrome b 5 and NADPH-cytochrome c reductase transferred from microsomes to Golgi membranes or lipid vesicles. We conclude that the endogenous proteins and proteins incorporated in the presence of a detergent are linked to the membrane in another manner than the same proteins which had been inserted into a preformed membrane. 相似文献

An antibody preparation elicited against purified, lysosomal-solubilized NADH-cytochrome b5 reductase from rat liver microsomes was shown to interact with methemoglobin reductase of human erythrocytes by inhibiting the rate of erythrocyte cytochrome b5 reduction by NADH. The ferricyanide reductase activity of the enzyme was not inhibited by the antibody, suggesting that the inhibition of methemoglobin reductase activity may be due to interference with the binding of cytochrorme b5 to the flavoprotein. Under conditions of limiting concentrations of flavoprotein, the antibody inhibited the rate of methemoglobin reduction in a reconstituted system consisting of homogeneous methemoglobin reductase and cytochrome b5 from human erythrocytes. This inhibition was due to the decreased level of reduced cytochrome b5 during the steady state of methemoglobin reduction while the rate of methemoglobin reduction per reduced cytochrome b5 stayed constant, suggesting that the enzyme was not concerned with an electron transport between the reduced cytochrome b5 and methemoglobin.An antibody to purified, trypsin-solubilized cytochrome b5 from rat liver microsomes was shown to inhibit erythrocyte cytochrome b5 reduction by methemoglobin reductase and NADH to a lesser extent than microsomal cytochrome b5 preparations from rat liver (trypsin solubilized or detergent solubilized) and pig liver (trypsin solubilized). The results presented establish that soluble methemoglobin reductase and cytochrome b5 of human erythrocytes are immunochemically similar to NADH-cytochrome b5 reductase and cytochrome b5 of liver microsomes, respectively. 相似文献

The effects of bivalent cations on cytochrome b5 reduction by NADH:cytochrome b5 reductase and NADPH:cytochrome c reductase were studied with the proteinase-solubilized enzymes. Cytochrome b5 reduction by NADH:cytochrome b5 reductase was strongly inhibited by CaCl2 or MgCl2. When 1.2 microM-cytochrome b5 was used, the concentrations of CaCl2 and MgCl2 required for 50% inhibition (I50) were 8 and 18 mM respectively. The inhibition was competitive with respect to cytochrome b5. The extent of inhibition by CaCl2 or MgCl2 was much higher than that by KCl or other alkali halides. In contrast, cytochrome b5 reduction by NADPH:cytochrome c reductase was extremely activated by CaCl2 or MgCl2. In the presence of 5 mM-CaCl2, the activity was 24-fold higher than control when 4.4 microM-cytochrome b5 was used. The magnitude of activation by CaCl2 was 2-3-fold higher than that by MgCl2. The activation by these salts was much higher than that by KCl, indicating that bivalent cations play an important role in this activation. The mechanisms of inhibition and activation by bivalent cations of cytochrome b5 reduction by these two microsomal reductases are discussed. 相似文献

Microsomal cytochrome b(5) reductase (EC 1.6.2.2) catalyzes the reduction of ferricytochrome b(5) using NADH as the physiological electron donor. Site-directed mutagenesis has been used to engineer the soluble rat cytochrome b(5) reductase diaphorase domain to utilize NADPH as the preferred electron donor. Single and double mutations at residues D239 and F251 were made in a recombinant expression system that corresponded to D239E, S and T, F251R, and Y, D239S/F251R, D239S/F251Y, and D239T/F251R, respectively. Steady-state turnover measurements indicated that D239S/F251Y was bispecific while D239T, D239S/F251R, and D239T/F251R were each NADPH-specific. Wild-type (WT) cytochrome b(5) reductase showed a 3700-fold preference for NADH whereas the mutant with the highest NADPH efficiency, D239T, showed an 11-fold preference for NADPH, a 39200-fold increase. Wild-type cytochrome b(5) reductase only formed a stable charge-transfer complex with NADH while D239T formed complexes with both NADH and NADPH. The rates of hydride ion transfer, determined by stopped-flow kinetics, were k(NADH-WT) = 130 s(-1), k(NADPH-WT) = 5 s(-1), k(NADH-D239T) = 180 s(-1), and k(NADPH-D239T) = 73 s(-1). K(s) determinations by differential spectroscopy demonstrated that D239T could bind nonreducing pyridine nucleotides with a phosphate or a hydroxyl substituent at the 2' position, whereas wild-type cytochrome b(5) reductase would only bind 2' hydroxylated molecules. Oxidation-reduction potentials (E degrees ', n = 2) for the flavin cofactor were WT = -268 mV, D239T = -272 mV, WT+NAD(+) = -190 mV, D239T+NAD(+) = -206 mV, WT+NADP(+) = -253 mV, and D239T+NADP(+) = -215 mV, which demonstrated the thermodynamic contribution of NADP(+) binding to D239T. The crystal structures of D239T and D239T in complex with NAD(+) indicated that the loss of the negative electrostatic surface that precluded 2' phosphate binding in the wild-type enzyme was primarily responsible for the observed improvement in the use of NADPH by the D239T mutant. 相似文献

The steady-state levels of aerobic and anaerobic reduction of cytochrome b5 by ascorbic acid and the initial rates of cytochrome b5 reduction in the presence of ascorbic acid and of anaerobic cytochrome P-450 reduction in the presence of NADH were used to calculate the rate constants for cytochrome b5 oxidation. The rate constant for cytochrome b5 autooxidation in the membrane is equal to that for isolated cytochrome b5, i. e., 5 X 10(-3) s-1 (37 degrees C). The rate constant for the second cytochrome b5 oxidation reaction in the membrane, i. e., electron transfer to cytochrome P-450, is equal to 140 X 10(-3) s-1 (37 degrees C). 相似文献

The clinical disorder of recessive congenital methemoglobinemia (RCM, OMIN 250800) is associated with mutations in NADH:cytochrome b5 reductase (cb5r) and manifests as cyanosis from birth. Screening a cyanotic infant indicated elevated methemoglobin levels and decreased cb5r activity suggesting RCM. Sequencing the DIA1 gene encoding cb5r revealed a novel mutation, C27161T (NCBI accession number: NT_011520), resulting in replacement of proline at amino acid 275 with leucine (P275L). To understand how this mutation would affect cb5r's function, the P275L variant was expressed in a heterologous expression system and spectroscopic, thermodynamic, and thermostability studies were performed. The leucine substitution at residue 275 was found to significantly decrease the affinity towards the physiological reducing substrate, NADH, without affecting the activity of the P275L variant. From the rat model, residue 275 is predicted to be part of a conserved "CGPPPM" motif important for the binding and correct positioning of the NADH reducing substrate. Thus P275 influences the interaction with NADH which was confirmed by the change in affinity towards the physiological reducing substrate. 相似文献

Covalent cross-linking of the active sites of vesicle-bound cytochrome b5 and NADH-cytochrome b5 reductase 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
A water-soluble carbodiimide has been used to promote the formation of amide bonds between carboxyl residues on cytochrome b5 and lysyl residues on cytochrome b5 reductase. The visible and UV absorption spectrum of the purified cross-linked complex was identical with the sum of the spectra of the individual enzymes, and the average apparent molecular weight of the complex, determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-gel electrophoresis, was within 12% of the sum of the apparent molecular weights of the two monomeric enzymes, indicating that the cross-linked derivative was a dimer containing one molecule each of cytochrome b5 and cytochrome b5 reductase. When reconstituted into phospholipid vesicles, the amphipathic derivative showed substantially reduced Vmax values with the soluble electron acceptors potassium ferricyanide, cytochrome b5 heme peptide and cytochrome c, and with the membrane-bound acceptors amphipathic cytochrome b5 and stearyl-CoA desaturase. The soluble catalytic fragment of the derivative, produced by limited digestion with subtilisin Carlsberg, showed similar decreases in Vmax values with the above soluble acceptors. In contrast, intradimer electron transfer in the soluble fragment, measured by stopped flow spectrophotometry at 2 degrees C was very efficient. Ninety per cent of the cytochrome b5 in the derivative was reduced with a first order rate constant of 51 s-1 upon the addition of NADH; the transfer of electrons from NADH to the reductase FAD prosthetic group, which is known to be the rate-limiting step in the reductase reaction mechanism, proceeded with an apparent rate constant of 57 s-1 under these conditions. These kinetic data show that the enzymes in the complex are cross-linked together at the surfaces involved in protein-protein contacts during electron transfer in an orientation similar to that assumed during electron transfer between the free proteins. 相似文献
