Kinetic mechanism of histidinol dehydrogenase: histidinol binding and exchange reactions 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Salmonella typhimurium histidinol dehydrogenase produces histidine from the amino alcohol histidinol by two sequential NAD-linked oxidations which form and oxidize a stable enzyme-bound histidinaldehyde intermediate. The enzyme was found to catalyze the exchange of 3H between histidinol and [4(R)-3H]NADH and between NAD and [4(S)-3H]NADH. The latter reaction proceeded at rates greater than kcat for the net reaction and was about 3-fold faster than the former. Histidine did not support an NAD/NADH exchange, demonstrating kinetic irreversibility in the second half-reaction. Specific activity measurements on [3H]histidinol produced during the histidinol/NADH exchange reaction showed that only a single hydrogen was exchanged between the two reactants, demonstrating that under the conditions employed this exchange reaction arises only from the reversal of the alcohol dehydrogenase step and not the aldehyde dehydrogenase reaction. The kinetics of the NAD/NADH exchange reaction demonstrated a hyperbolic dependence on the concentration of NAD and NADH when the two were present in a 1:2 molar ratio. The histidinol/NADH exchange showed severe inhibition by high NAD and NADH under the same conditions, indicating that histidinol cannot dissociate directly from the ternary enzyme-NAD-histidinol complex; in other words, the binding of substrate is ordered with histidinol leading. Binding studies indicated that [3H]histidinol bound to 1.7 sites on the dimeric enzyme (0.85 site/monomer) with a KD of 10 microM. No binding of [3H]NAD or [3H]NADH was detected. The nucleotides could, however, displace histidinol dehydrogenase from Cibacron Blue-agarose.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The stereospecificity of hydrogen transfer in the synthesis of saccharopine from alpha-ketoglutarate and L-lysine catalyzed by saccharopine dehydrogenase (N5-(1,3-dicarboxypropyl)-L-lysine: NAD oxidoreductase (L-lysine-forming), EC 1.5.1.7) was examined by using [4A-3H]- and [4B-3H]NADH. The enzyme showed the A-stereospecificity. The NMR analysis of the saccharopine prepared with [4"A-2H]NADH revealed that the label was incorporated into the C-2 of the glutaryl moiety. 相似文献

Amino acid racemases inherently catalyze the exchange of alpha-hydrogen of amino acids with deuterium during racemization in 2H2O. When the reactions catalyzed by alanine racemase (EC 5.1.1.1) and L-alanine dehydrogenase (EC 1.4.1.1), which is pro-R specific for the C-4 hydrogen transfer of NADH, are coupled in 2H2O, [4R-2H]NADH is exclusively produced. Similarly, [4S-2H]NADH is made in 2H2O with amino-acid racemase with low substrate specificity (EC 5.1.1.10) and L-leucine dehydrogenase (EC 1.4.1.9), which is pro-S specific. We have established a simple procedure for the in situ analysis of stereospecificity of C-4 hydrogen transfer of NADH by an NAD-dependent dehydrogenase by combination with either of the above two couples of enzymes in the same reaction mixture. When the C-4 hydrogen of NAD+ is fully retained after sufficient incubation, the stereospecificity of hydrogen transfer by a dehydrogenase is the same as that of alanine dehydrogenase or leucine dehydrogenase. However, when the C-4 hydrogen of NAD+ is exchanged with deuterium, the enzyme to be examined shows the different stereospecificity from alanine dehydrogenase or leucine dehydrogenase. Thus, we can readily determine the stereospecificity by 1H NMR measurement without isolation of the coenzymes and products. 相似文献

sn-Glycerol-1-phosphate dehydrogenase is responsible for the formation of the sn-glycerol-1-phosphate backbone of archaeal lipids. [4-3H]NADH that had 3H at the R side was produced from [4-3H]NAD and glucose with glucose dehydrogenase (a pro-S type enzyme). The 3H of this [4-3H]NADH was transferred to dihydroxyacetonephosphate during the sn-glycerol-1-phosphate dehydrogenase reaction. On the contrary, in a similar reaction using alcohol dehydrogenase (a pro-R type enzyme), 3H was not incorporated into glycerophosphate. These results confirmed a prediction of the tertiary structure of sn-glycerol-1-phosphate dehydrogenase by homology modeling. 相似文献

The stereochemistry of the hydrogen transfer to NAD catalyzed by ribitol dehydrogenase (ribitol:NAD 2-oxidoreductase, EC 1.1.1.56) from Klebsiella pneumoniae and D-mannitol-1-phosphate dehydrogenase (D-mannitol-1-phosphate:NAD 2-oxidoreductase, EC 1.1.1.17) from Escherichia coli was investigated. [4-3H]NAD was enzymatically reduced with nonlabelled ribitol in the presence of ribitol dehydrogenase and with nonlabelled D-mannitol 1-phosphate and D-mannitol 1-phosphate dehydrogenase, respectively. In both cases the [4-3H]-NADH produced was isolated and the chirality at the C-4 position determined. It was found that after the transfer of hydride, the label was in both reactions exclusively confined to the (4R) position of the newly formed [4-3H]NADH. In order to explain these results, the hydrogen transferred from the nonlabelled substrates to [4-3H]NAD must have entered the (4S) position of the nicotinamide ring. These data indicate for both investigated inducible dehydrogenases a classification as B or (S) type enzymes. Ribitol also can be dehydrogenated by the constitutive A-type L-iditol dehydrogenase (L-iditol:NAD 5-oxidoreductase, EC 1.1.1.14) from sheep liver. When L-iditol dehydrogenase utilizes ribitol as hydrogen donor, the same A-type classification for this oxidoreductase, as expected, holds true. For the first time, opposite chirality of hydrogen transfer to NAD in one organic reaction--ribitol + NAD = D-ribu + NADH + H--is observed when two different dehydrogenases, the inducible ribitol dehydrogenase from K. pneumoniae and the constitutive L-iditol dehydrogenase from sheep liver, are used as enzymes. This result contradicts the previous generalization that the chirality of hydrogen transfer to the coenzyme for the same reaction is independent of the source of the catalyzing enzyme. 相似文献

Mn2+.tartrate dehydrogenase.substrate complexes have been examined by electron spin echo envelope modulation spectroscopy. The occurrence of dipolar interactions between Mn2+ and 2H on [2H]pyruvate and [4-2H]NAD(H) confirms that Mn2+ binds at the enzyme active site. The 2H signal arising from labeled pyruvate was lost if the sample was incubated at room temperature, indicating that the enzyme catalyzes exchange between the pyruvate methyl protons and solvent protons. Mn-133Cs dipolar coupling was also observed, which suggests that the monovalent cation cofactor also binds in the active site. The tartrate analogue oxalate was observed to have a significant effect on the binding of NAD(H). Oxalate appears to constrain the binding of NAD(H) so that the nicotinamide portion of the cofactor is held in close proximity to Mn2+. Spectra of enzyme complexes prepared with (R)-[4-2H]NADH showed a more intense 2H signal than analogous complexes prepared with (S)-[4-2H]NADH, demonstrating that the pro-R position of NADH is closer to Mn2+ than the pro-S position and suggesting that tartrate dehydrogenase is an A-side-specific dehydrogenase. Oxalate also affected Cs+ binding; the intensity of the 133Cs signal increased in the presence of oxalate, which suggest that oxalate facilitates binding of Cs+ to the active site or that Cs+ binds closer to Mn2+ when oxalate is present. In addition to signals from substrates, electron spin echo envelope modulation spectra revealed 14N signals that arose from coordination to Mn2+ by nitrogen-containing ligands from the protein; however, the identity of this ligand or ligands remains obscure. 相似文献

We have established a simple procedure for the in situ analysis of stereospecificity of an NAD(P)-dependent dehydrogenase for C-4 hydrogen transfer of NAD(P)H by means of glutamate racemase [EC 5.1.13] and glutamate dehydrogenase [EC 1.4.1.3]. Glutamate racemase inherently catalyzes the exchange of alpha-H of glutamate with 2H during racemization in 2H2O. When the reactions of glutamate racemase and glutamate dehydrogenase, which is pro-S specific for the C4-H transfer of NAD(P)H, are coupled in 2H2O, [4S-2H]-NAD(P)H is exclusively produced. Therefore, if 1H is fully retained at C-4 of NAD(P)+ after incubation of a reaction mixture containing both the enzymes and a dehydrogenase to be tested, the stereospecificity of the dehydrogenase is the same as that of glutamate dehydrogenase. When the C4-H of NAD(P)+ is exchanged with 2H, the enzyme to be examined is different from glutamate dehydrogenase in stereospecificity. Thus, we can readily determine the stereospecificity by 1H-NMR measurement of NAD(P)+ without isolation of the coenzymes and products. 相似文献

The stereospecificity of hydrogen transfer between steroid (17-hydroxyprogesterone) and both natural cofactors by bovine testicular 20 alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (20 alpha-HSD) has been determined. Cofactors used in these studies, [4-pro-S-3H]NADH ([4B-3H]NADH) and [4-pro-S-3H]NADPH ([4B-3H]NADPH) were generated with human placental estradiol 17 beta-dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.62) utilizing [17 alpha-3H]estradiol-17 beta and NAD+ or NADP+, respectively. The resulting [4B-3H]NADH and [4B-3H]NADPH were purified by ion-exchange chromatography and separately incubated with molar excess of 17-hydroxyprogesterone as substrate in the presence of 20 alpha-HSD. Following incubation, steroid reactant and product were extracted, separated by HPLC and quantitated as to mass and content of tritium. The oxidized and reduced cofactors were separated by ion-exchange chromatography and quantitated as to mass and tritium content. In all incubations, equimolar amounts of 17,20 alpha-dihydroxy-4-pregnen-3-one and oxidized cofactor were obtained. Further, all recovered radioactivity remained with cofactor and none was found in the steroid product. In additional experiments, both reduced cofactors were separately incubated with glutamate dehydrogenase, an enzyme known to transfer from the B-side of the nicotinamide ring. Here radioactivity was present only in the unreacted cofactor fractions and in the product, glutamic acid. The results indicate that bovine testicular 20 alpha-HSD catalyzes transfer of the 4A-hydrogen from the dihydronicotinamide moiety of the reduced cofactor. Finally, this work described modifications that represent considerable improvement in the purification and assay of bovine 20 alpha-HSD as originally described. 相似文献

The stereochemistry of the hydrogen transfer to NAD catalyzed by (S)alanine dehydrogenase [ (S)alanine: NAD oxidoreductase (EC 1.4.1.1) ] from B. subtilis was investigated. The label at C-2 of (S) [2,3--3H] alanine was enzymatically transferred to NAD, and the [4--3H]NADH produced isolated and the stereochemistry at C-4 investigated. It was found that the label was exclusively located at the (R) position which indicates that (S)alanine dehydrogenase is an A-type enzyme. This result was confirmed in an alternate way by reducing enzymatically [4--3H]NAD with non labeled (S)alanine and (S)alanine dehydrogenase and investigating the stereochemistry of the ]4--3H]NADH produced. As expected, the label was now exclusively located at the (S) position. This proves that (S)alanine dehydrogenase isolated from B. subtilis should be classified as an A-enzyme with regard to the stereochemistry of the hydrogen transfer to NAD. 相似文献

N-Arylazido-beta-alanyl-NAD+ [N3'-O-(3-[N-(4-azido-2-nitrophenyl)amino]propionyl)NAD+] has been prepared by alkaline phosphatase treatment of arylazido-beta-alanyl-NADP+ [N3'-O-(3-[N-(4-azido-2-nitrophenyl)amino]propionyl)NADP+]. This NAD+ analogue was found to be a potent competitive inhibitor (Ki = 1.45 microM) with respect to NADH for the purified bovine heart mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase (EC 1.6.99.3). The enzyme was irreversibly inhibited as well as covalently labeled by this analogue upon photoirradiation. A stoichiometry of 1.15 mol of N-arylazido-beta-alanyl-NAD+ bound/mol of enzyme, at 100% inactivation, was determined from incorporation studies using tritium-labeled analogue. Among the three subunits, 0.85 mol of the analogue was bound to the Mr = 51,000 subunit, and each of the two smaller subunits contained 0.15 mol of the analogue when the dehydrogenase was completely inhibited upon photolysis. Both the irreversible inactivation and the covalent incorporation could be prevented by the presence of NADH during photolysis. These results indicate that N-arylazido-beta-alanyl-NAD+ is an active-site-directed photoaffinity label for the mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase, and are further evidence that the Mr = 51,000 subunit contains the NADH binding site. Previous studies using A-arylazido-beta-alanyl-NAD+ [A3'-O-(3-[N-(4-azido-2-nitrophenyl)amino]propionyl)NAD+] demonstrated that the NADH binding site is on the Mr = 51,000 subunit [Chen, S., & Guillory, R. J. (1981) J. Biol. Chem. 256, 8318-8323]. Results are also presented to show that N-arylazido-beta-alanyl-NAD+ binds the dehydrogenase in a more effective manner than A-arylazido-beta-alanyl-NAD+. 相似文献

[2-3H]Inosinic acid ([2-3H]IMP) has been biosynthesized in good yield from [2-3H]hypoxanthine and PRPP via the action of a partially purified preparation of hypoxanthine/guanine phosphoribosyl transferase from mouse brain. The product was purified in one step by ascending paper chromatography, and used to assess the activity of IMP dehydrogenase. To conduct the assay, tritiated substrate is admixed with enzyme in a final volume of 10 microliters; NAD is present to serve as cofactor for the reaction, and allopurinol to inhibit the oxidation of any hypoxanthine generated as a consequence of side reactions. After an appropriate period of incubation, the 3H2O arising from the oxidation of tritiated IMP via [3H]NAD is isolated by quantitative microdistillation. Performed as described, the assay is facile, sensitive, and accurate, with the capability of detecting the dehydrogenation of as little as 1 pmol of [3H]IMP. Using it, measurements have been made of IMP dehydrogenase in a comprehensive array of mouse organs. Of these, pancreas contained the enzyme at the highest specific activity. 相似文献

1. An assay for demethylation has been developed based on the release of tritium from 4,4-dimethyl[3alpha-(3)H]cholest-7-en-3beta-ol (II). 2. The maximum release of (3)H from 3alpha-(3)H-labelled compound (II) in a rat liver microsomal preparation occurs in the presence of NADPH and NAD(+) under aerobic conditions. 3. Incubation of 3alpha-(3)H-labelled compound (II) with NADPH under aerobic conditions leads to the formation of a 3alpha-(3)H-labelled C-4 carboxylic acid. This compound undergoes dehydrogenation on subsequent anaerobic incubation with NAD(+). 4. The (3)H released from the steroid was located in [4-(3)H]nicotinamide and the medium. Incubation with synthetic [4-(3)H(2)]NADH gave a similar result. 5. In the presence of glutamate dehydrogenase and alpha-oxoglutarate part of the (3)H released from the steroid was transferred to glutamate. 6. A series of 3-oxo steroids were reduced equally well by [4-(3)H(2)]NADH and [4-(3)H(2)]NADPH. The reduction of 5alpha-cholest-7-en-3-one was shown to use the 4B H atom from the nucleotide. 7. 3':5'-Cyclic AMP was shown to be a competitive inhibitor of the 3beta-hydroxy dehydrogenase enzyme in the demethylation reaction. 相似文献

A cytosolic thyroid-hormone-binding protein (xCTBP), predominantly responsible for the major binding activity of T3 in the cytosol of Xenopus liver, has been shown to be identical to aldehyde dehydrogenase class 1 (ALDH1) [Yamauchi, K., Nakajima, J., Hayashi, H., Horiuchi, R. & Tata, J.R. (1999) J. Biol. Chem. 274, 8460-8469]. Within this paper we surveyed which signaling, and other, compounds affect the thyroid hormone binding activity and aldehyde dehydrogenase activity of recombinant Xenopus ALDH1 (xCTBP/xALDH1) while examining the relationship between these two activities. NAD+ and NADH (each 200 microm), and two steroids (20 microm), inhibit significantly the T3-binding activity, while NADH and NADPH (each 200 microm), and iodothyronines (1 microm), inhibit the ALDH activity. Scatchard analysis and kinetic studies of xCTBP/xALDH1 indicate that NAD+ and T3 are noncompetitive inhibitors of thyroid-hormone-binding and ALDH activities, respectively. These results indicate the formation of a ternary complex consisting of the protein, NAD+ and thyroid hormone. Although the in vitro studies indicate that NAD+ and NADH markedly decrease T3-binding to xCTBP/xALDH1 at approximately 10-4 m, a concentration equal to the NAD content in various Xenopus tissues, photoaffinity-labeling of [125I]T3 using cultured Xenopus cells demonstrates xCTBP/xALDH1 bound T3 within living cells. These results raise the possibility that an unknown factor(s) besides NAD+ and NADH may modulate the thyroid-hormone-binding activity of xCTBP/xALDH1. In comparison, thyroid hormone, at its physiological concentration, would poorly modulate the enzyme activity of xCTBP/xALDH1. 相似文献

The mechanism of glucose 6-phosphate–d-myo-inositol 1-phosphate cyclase of rat testis. The involvement of hydrogen atoms 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Comparison of the initial (3)H/(14)C ratios in specifically labelled d-glucose 6-phosphates with the final ratios in myo-inositol produced by glucose 6-phosphate-d-myo-inositol 1-phosphate cyclase from rat testis showed that, during the conversion, the hydrogen atoms at C-1 and C-3 were fully retained, one hydrogen atom was lost from C-6, and that at C-5 was apparently retained to the extent of 80-90%. The loss of (3)H could not be stimulated by addition of unlabelled NADH, and when unlabelled substrate was used (3)H from [(3)H]NADH and [(3)H]water was not incorporated. Treatment of the enzyme with charcoal abolished the activity, and this was restored to 25-50% of the original activity by NAD(+). The charcoal-treated enzyme again apparently gave 85% retention of hydrogen with [5-(3)H]glucose 6-phosphate as substrate in the presence of NAD(+) alone, but the retention was decreased to 65% with excess of NADH. The results are interpreted as indicating that the cyclization proceeds by an aldol condensation in which C-5 is oxidized by NAD(+) in a tightly-bound ternary complex, and that the apparent loss of (3)H when untreated enzyme is used is due to an isotope effect. It is suggested that after treatment with charcoal some exchange of NADH with an external pool may take place. 相似文献

An NAD+-linked 17 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase was purified to homogeneity from a fungus, Cylindrocarpon radicicola ATCC 11011 by ion exchange, gel filtration, and hydrophobic chromatographies. The purified preparation of the dehydrogenase showed an apparent molecular weight of 58,600 by gel filtration and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. SDS-gel electrophoresis gave Mr = 26,000 for the identical subunits of the protein. The amino-terminal residue of the enzyme protein was determined to be glycine. The enzyme catalyzed the oxidation of 17 beta-hydroxysteroids to the ketosteroids with the reduction of NAD+, which was a specific hydrogen acceptor, and also catalyzed the reduction of 17-ketosteroids with the consumption of NADH. The optimum pH of the dehydrogenase reaction was 10 and that of the reductase reaction was 7.0. The enzyme had a high specific activity for the oxidation of testosterone (Vmax = 85 mumol/min/mg; Km for the steroid = 9.5 microM; Km for NAD+ = 198 microM at pH 10.0) and for the reduction of androstenedione (Vmax = 1.8 mumol/min/mg; Km for the steroid = 24 microM; Km for NADH = 6.8 microM at pH 7.0). In the purified enzyme preparation, no activity of 3 alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase, 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase, delta 5-3-ketosteroid-4,5-isomerase, or steroid ring A-delta-dehydrogenase was detected. Among several steroids tested, only 17 beta-hydroxysteroids such as testosterone, estradiol-17 beta, and 11 beta-hydroxytestosterone, were oxidized, indicating that the enzyme has a high specificity for the substrate steroid. The stereospecificity of hydrogen transfer by the enzyme in dehydrogenation was examined with [17 alpha-3H]testosterone. 相似文献

Incubation of Complex I (NADH-CoQ reductase) of ox heart mitochondria at 4 degrees C in the presence of 0.5 M NaClO4 followed by ammonium sulfate fractionation of the solubilized proteins results in the isolation of a resolved preparation still capable of catalyzing NADH-NAD+ transhydrogenation but having only low levels of NADH dehydrogenase activity. A number of NAD(H) analogues, including the photoaffinity probes, arylazido-beta-alanyl NAD+ (A3'-O-[3-[N-(4-azido-2-nitrophenyl)amino]propionyl]NAD+ and arylazido-beta-alanyl AcPyAD+ (A3'-O-[3-[N-(4-azido-2-nitrophenyl)amino]propionyl]AcPyAD+ can be utilized as substrates for transhydrogenation in this preparation. A further incubation (10 min) of the resolved NADH-NAD+ transhydrogenase in the presence of 0.5 M NaClO4, but now at 30 degrees C, results in the complete loss of this transhydrogenase activity. Photoaffinity labeling experiments utilizing arylazido-[3-3H]beta-alanyl NAD+ and arylazido-[3-3H]beta-alanyl AcPyAD+ with the resolved NADH-NAD+ transhydrogenase preparation prior to and following NaClO4 (30 degrees C) treatment indicates that the 42,000 molecular weight component of Complex I is the pyridine nucleotide binding site responsible for the major NADH-NAD+ (DD) transhydrogenase activity of Complex I. 相似文献

The metabolism of [2-3H]lactate was studied in isolated hepatocytes from fed and starved rats metabolizing ethanol and lactate in the absence and presence of fructose. The yields of 3H in ethanol, water, glucose and glycerol were determined. The rate of ethanol oxidation (3 mumol/min per g wet wt.) was the same for fed and starved rats with and without fructose. From the detritiation of labelled lactate and the labelling pattern of ethanol and glucose, we calculated the rate of reoxidation of NADH catalysed by lactate dehydrogenase, alcohol dehydrogenase and triosephosphate dehydrogenase. The calculated flux of reducing equivalents from NADH to pyruvate was of the same order of magnitude as previously found with [3H]ethanol or [3H]xylitol as the labelled substrate [Vind & Grunnet (1982) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 720, 295-302]. The results suggest that the cytoplasm can be regarded as a single compartment with respect to NAD(H). The rate of reduction of acetaldehyde and pyruvate was correlated with the concentration of these metabolites and NADH, and was highest in fed rats and during fructose metabolism. The rate of reoxidation of NADH catalysed by lactate dehydrogenase was only a few per cent of the maximal activity of the enzymes, but the rate of reoxidation of NADH catalysed by alcohol dehydrogenase was equal to or higher than the maximal activity as measured in vitro, suggesting that the dissociation of enzyme-bound NAD+ as well as NADH may be rate-limiting steps in the alcohol dehydrogenase reaction. 相似文献

The stereochemistry of the hydrogen transfer to NAD catalyzed by D-galactose dehydrogenase (E.C. 1.1.1.48) from P. fluorescens was investigated. The label at C-1 of D-[1--3H] galactose was enzymatically transferred to NAD and the resulting [4--3H]NADH was isolated and its stereochemistry at C-4 investigated. It was found that the label was exclusively located at the 4(S) position in NADH which calls for classification as a B-enzyme. This result was confirmed by an alternate approach in which [4--3H]NAD was reduced by D-galactose as catalyzed by D-galactose dehydrogenase. The sterochemistry at C-4 of the nicotinamide ring would then have to opposite to that in the first experiment. As expected, the label was now exclusively located in the 4(R) position, again confirming the B-calssification of the enzyme. 相似文献

Mitochondria from beef heart and yeast catalyze the reduction of NAD to NADH at the expense of reduced methylviologen (MV+). Based on protein the specific activity of mitochondria for this reaction is about 10 20-times higher than the consumption of oxygen in the presence of succinate or NADH. In 2H2O buffer (4S)-[4-2H]NADH is formed in high enantiomeric excess if the reduced methylviologen is electrochemically regenerated. 相似文献

A method for the rapid determination of the specific activity of NaB3H4 is presented. NaB3H4 is used to reduce NAD+ to [3H]NADH, which is then isolated by anion exchange chromatography. The specific activity of the NaB3H4 is calculated from measurements of radioactivity and absorbance (340 nm) in the [3H]NADH fractions. 相似文献
