It has been reported earlier that nucleotides, nucleosides and a series of structurally related compounds as well as compounds
based on transition state analogy inhibit yeast glyoxalase I. In our study on the metabolic regulation of glyoxalase I, we
have found that nucleotides such as ATP, GTP and different classes of other reagents based on transition state analogy (D-isoascorbate,
dihydroxyfumaric acid, rhodizonic acid) do not inhibit yeast or goat liver glyoxalase I. The reported inhibition of glyoxalase
I by these compounds has been found to be due to the interference of these compounds with the absorbancy at 240 nm of S-D-lactoylglutathione
formed by the glyoxalase I reaction.
Glyoxalase I from goat liver has been found to be strongly and competitively inhibited by lactaldehyde. But, lactaldehyde
has very little inhibitory effect on yeast glyoxalase I. Lactaldehyde is formed from methylglyoxal, the substrate for glyoxalase
I by the enzyme methylglyoxal reductase. D-Lactaldehyde inhibits the liver enzyme more strongly than L-lactaldehyde. 相似文献

Glyoxalase I (EC 4.4.1.5), which catalyzes the reaction methylglyoxal + GSH leads to S-lactoylglutathione, is a ubiquitous enzyme for which no clear physiological function has been shown. In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, methylglyoxal may derive from the spontaneous decay of intracellular glyceraldehyde-3-P, which may accumulate during growth on glycerol as the carbon source. The half-life time for the triose phosphate was found to be 4.6 h under physiological conditions (pH 6.2, 0.05 M phosphate at 30 degrees C). Glyoxalase I is induced by growth on glycerol or by the addition of methylglyoxal to the growth medium. The enzyme is also subject to carbon catabolite repression. A mutant strain, fully defective in glyoxalase I and bearing only one nuclear mutation, was obtained. The strain, which is killed by exposure to glycerol, excretes methylglyoxal into the medium. Growth of the mutant on glucose as carbon source appears to be similar to that of the wild type strain. This investigation has clearly demonstrated a physiological role of glyoxalase I in a eucaryotic cell. 相似文献

Coffee shows direct-acting mutagenicity in Salmonella typhimurium TA100 and most of this mutagenicity is due to the synergistic effects of methylglyoxal and hydrogen peroxide. The modifications of deoxyribonucleosides by methylglyoxal plus hydrogen peroxide were studied in vitro. When 2'-deoxyguanosine (6.25 mumole) was treated with methylglyoxal (125 mumole) and hydrogen peroxide (125 mumole) in 5 ml of 0.1 M phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) at 37 degrees C for 3 h, N2-acetyl-2'-deoxyguanosine was formed with a yield of 1.1%. Its formation increased time-dependently. By contrast, no appreciable modification of other deoxynucleosides was detected after their incubation with methylglyoxal and hydrogen peroxide under similar conditions. N2-Acetyl-2'-deoxyguanosine was also formed during incubation of 2'-deoxyguanosine with instant coffee. 相似文献

The glyoxalase system is composed of two metalloenzymes, Glyoxalase I and Glyoxalase II. This system is important in the detoxification of methylglyoxal, among other roles. Detailed studies have determined that a number of bacterial Glyoxalase I enzymes are maximally activated by Ni(2+) and Co(2+) ions, but are inactive in the presence of Zn(2+). This is in contrast to the Glyoxalase I enzyme from humans, which is catalytically active with Zn(2+) as well as a number of other metal ions. The structure-activity relationships between these two classes of Glyoxalase I are serving as important clues to how the molecular structures of these proteins control metal activation profiles as well as to clarify the mechanistic chemistry of these catalysts. In addition, the possibility of targeting inhibitors against the bacterial versus human enzyme has the potential to lead to new approaches to combat bacterial infections. 相似文献

Glyoxalase I and glutathione transferase (GST) are two glutathione-dependent enzymes which are enhanced in plants during cell division and in response to diverse stress treatments. In soybean, a further connection between these two enzymes has been suggested by a clone (Accession No. X68819) resembling a GST being described as a glyoxalase I. To characterize glyoxalase I in soybean, GmGlyox I resembling the dimeric enzyme from animals has been cloned from a cDNA library prepared from soybean suspension cultures. When expressed in Escherichia coli, GmGlyox I was found to be a 38-kDa dimer composed of 21-kDa subunits and unlike the enzyme from mammals showed activity in the absence of metal ions. GmGlyox I was active toward the hemithioacetal adducts formed by reacting methylglyoxal, or phenylglyoxal, with glutathione, homoglutathione, or gamma-glutamylcysteine, showing no preference for homoglutathione adducts over glutathione adducts, even though homoglutathione is the dominant thiol in soybean. When the clone X68819 was expressed in E. coli, the respective recombinant enzyme was active as a GST rather than a glyoxalase and was termed GmGST 3. GmGST 3 was active as a homodimer (45 kDa) composed of 26-kDa subunits and showed a preference for glutathione over homoglutathione when conjugating 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene. Both enzymes are associated with cell division in soybean cultures, but GmGST 3 (0.4% total protein) was 40 times more abundant than GmGlyox I (0.01%). 相似文献

Cigarette smoking is associated with a number of fatal diseases, including cancer of different organs. A number of oxoaldehydes are found in cigarette smoke, among which methylglyoxal (MG) is known to cause toxicity to cells upon accumulation. In biological systems, MG is converted to s-d-lactoylglutathione by glyoxalase I with reduced glutathine (GSH) as a cofactor, and s-d-lactoylglutathione is converted to D-lactic acid with simultaneous regeneration of GSH, by glyoxalase II. In the present study, we have investigated the status of the glyoxalase enzymes in kidney tissues from rats exposed to passive cigarette smoke. No significant change has been noted in glyoxalase I activity. Glyoxalase II was decreased during 1 and 2 weeks of exposure, and after that the activity was increased. The initial decrease in the activity of gly II may be due to the excess amount of methylglyoxal generated due to smoke exposure or the adduct formed by MG and GSH which known to inhibit gly II activity. Both enzymes help in the detoxification of cigarette smoke induced chemicals and biochemicals. 相似文献

Abstract Eight species of halophilic Archaea were tested for the presence of the enzymes of the methylglyoxal bypass. Methylglyoxal synthase was found in extracts of all species tested, with the exception of Halobacterium salinarium and Halobacterium cutirubrum . The enzyme of Haloferax volcanii was most active at pH 7 in the absence of salt, and in the presence of 3 M NaCl or KCl activity was half of that without salt, and was inhibited by phosphate. Glyoxalase I was detected in all species tested. Optimal activity of H. volcanii glyoxalase I was found at pH 7 and 3 M KCl; in the absence of salt, activity was strongly reduced. Glutathione could be replaced by γ-glutamylcysteine as the acceptor of the D-lactoyl group. The work shows that the methylglyoxal bypass may be operative in representatives of the archaeal kingdom. 相似文献

Glyoxalase I was purified from Hansenula mrakii IFO 0895 which was resistant to 25 mM methylglyoxal. The molecular weight of the purified enzyme was calculated to be 38,000 by both gel-filtration of Sephadex G-150 and SDS-PAGE. The enzyme was almost specific to methylglyoxal (Km = 0.91 mM). The activity of the enzyme was not inhibited by metal ion chelators such as EDTA, which is a potent inhibitor for glyoxalase Is from other sources. 相似文献

The glyoxalase pathway of Leishmania infantum was kinetically characterized as a trypanothione-dependent system. Using time course analysis based on parameter fitting with a genetic algorithm, kinetic parameters were estimated for both enzymes, with trypanothione derived substrates. A K(m) of 0.253 mm and a V of 0.21 micromol.min(-1).mg(-1)for glyoxalase I, and a K(m) of 0.098 mm and a V of 0.18 micromol.min(-1).mg(-1) for glyoxalase II, were obtained. Modelling and computer simulation were used for evaluating the relevance of the glyoxalase pathway as a potential therapeutic target by revealing the importance of critical parameters of this pathway in Leishmania infantum. A sensitivity analysis of the pathway was performed using experimentally validated kinetic models and experimentally determined metabolite concentrations and kinetic parameters. The measurement of metabolites in L. infantum involved the identification and quantification of methylglyoxal and intracellular thiols. Methylglyoxal formation in L. infantum is nonenzymatic. The sensitivity analysis revealed that the most critical parameters for controlling the intracellular concentration of methylglyoxal are its formation rate and the concentration of trypanothione. Glyoxalase I and II activities play only a minor role in maintaining a low intracellular methylglyoxal concentration. The importance of the glyoxalase pathway as a therapeutic target is very small, compared to the much greater effects caused by decreasing trypanothione concentration or increasing methylglyoxal concentration. 相似文献

Glyoxalase I (GLO I) is the rate-limiting enzyme for detoxification of methylglyoxal (MG), a side-product of glycolysis, which is able to induce apoptosis. Since GLO I is known to be highly expressed in the most tumor cells and little in normal cells, inhibitors of this enzyme has been expected to be new anticancer drugs. Here, we examined the inhibitory abilities to the human GLO I of anthocyanidins, such as delphinidin, cyanidin and pelargonidin. Among them, delphinidin was found to have the most potent inhibitory effect on human GLO I. Also, only delphinidin-induced apoptosis in HL-60 cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Furthermore, we determined a pharmacophore for delphinidin binding to the human GLO I by computational simulation analyses of the binding modes of delphinidin, cyanidin and pelargonidin to the enzyme hot spot. These results suggest that delphinidin could be a useful lead compound for the development of novel GLO I inhibitory anticancer drugs. 相似文献

Cytotoxic methylglyoxal is detoxified by the two-enzyme glyoxalase system. Glyoxalase I (GlxI) catalyzes conversion of non-enzymatically produced methylglyoxal-glutathione hemithioacetal into its corresponding thioester. Glyoxalase II (Glx II) hydrolyzes the thioester into d-lactate and free glutathione. Glyoxalase I and II are metalloenzymes, which possess mononuclear and binuclear active sites, respectively. There are two distinct classes of GlxI; the first class is Zn2+-dependent and is composed of GlxI from mainly eukaryotic organisms and the second class is composed of non-Zn2+-dependent (but Ni2+ or Co2+-dependent) GlxI enzymes (mainly prokaryotic and leishmanial species). GlxII is typically Zn2+-activated, containing Zn2+ and either Fe3+/Fe2+ or Mn2+ at the active site depending upon the biological source. To address whether two classes of GlxII might exist, glyoxalase II from Escherichia coli was cloned and overexpressed and characterized. Unlike E. coli GlxI, which is non-Zn2+-dependent, Zn2+ activates the E. coli GlxII enzyme, with no evidence for Ni2+ metal utilization. 相似文献

Substrate specificity of bovine liver formaldehyde dehydrogenase 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Formaldehyde dehydrogenases isolated from several different biological sources have been reported to catalyze the NAD+-dependent oxidative acylation of glutathione by methylglyoxal to form S-pyruvylglutathione, suggesting the involvement of this enzyme in the metabolism of methylglyoxal. However, formaldehyde dehydrogenase from bovine liver is found not to use methylglyoxal or related alpha-ketoaldehydes as substrates. Using methylglyoxal with the enzyme under conditions favoring the forward reaction did not result in the formation of S-pyruvylglutathione. Using independently synthesized S-pyruvylglutathione with the enzyme under conditions favoring the reverse reaction did not result in the production of methylglyoxal. In addition, methylglyoxal and several related alpha-ketoaldehydes did not exhibit detectable activity with formaldehyde dehydrogenase partially purified from human liver, contrary to a previous report. Some, if not all, past reports that methylglyoxal serves as a substrate for the dehydrogenase may be due to the demonstrated presence of contaminating formaldehyde in some commercially available preparations of methylglyoxal. In a related study, S-hydroxymethylglutathione, formed by pre-equilibrium addition of formaldehyde to glutathione, is concluded to be direct substrate for the dehydrogenase. This follows from the observation that the catalytic turnover number of the enzyme in the forward direction exceeds by a factor of approximately 20 the first order rate constant for decomposition of S-hydroxymethylglutathione to glutathione and formaldehyde (k = 5.03 +/- 0.30 min-1, pH 8, 25 degrees C). 相似文献

The glyoxalase system catalyzes the conversion of toxic methylglyoxal to nontoxic d-lactic acid using glutathione (GSH) as a coenzyme. Glyoxalase II (GlxII) is a binuclear Zn enzyme that catalyzes the second step of this conversion, namely the hydrolysis of S-d-lactoylglutathione, which is the product of the Glyoxalase I (GlxI) reaction. In this paper we use density functional theory method to investigate the reaction mechanism of GlxII. A model of the active site is constructed on the basis of the X-ray crystal structure of the native enzyme. Stationary points along the reaction pathway are optimized and the potential energy surface for the reaction is calculated. The calculations give strong support to the previously proposed mechanism. It is found that the bridging hydroxide is capable of performing nucleophilic attack at the substrate carbonyl to form a tetrahedral intermediate. This step is followed by a proton transfer from the bridging oxygen to Asp58 and finally C-S bond cleavage. The roles of the two zinc ions in the reaction mechanism are analyzed. Zn2 is found to stabilize the charge of tetrahedral intermediate thereby lowering the barrier for the nucleophilic attack, while Zn1 stabilizes the charge of the thiolate product, thereby facilitating the C-S bond cleavage. Finally, the energies involved in the product release and active-site regeneration are estimated and a new possible mechanism is suggested. 相似文献

Renal effects of A II, retention of sodium and water, may be mediated by the stimulation of aldosterone secretion and/or by direct effects of A II on the kidneys. An attempt was made to differentiate between these two possibilities. Methods: Conscious, female beagle dogs were used. The dogs were kept under standardized conditions (metabolic cage, daily sodium intake 4.5 mmol X kg-1 bw, chronically implanted arterial and venous catheters, i.v. hormone substitution after adrenalectomy by a portable pump). A II was infused i.v. over a period of 60 min after 60 min control. (Rate: 1, 4, 20 or 200 ng X min-1 X kg-1 bw). Results: Mean arterial blood pressure (MABP) increased with 20 and 200 ng A II X min-1 X kg-1 bw by an average of 34 mm Hg and 65 mm Hg resp. before and after adrenalectomy. Before adrenalectomy: sodium and water excretion decreased always at 4 and 20 ng A II X min-1 X kg-1 bw, whereas a rate of 200 ng A II X min-1 X kg-1 bw had different effects on renal sodium and water excretion. After adrenalectomy: sodium and water excretion decreased at 4 ng A II X min-1 X kg-1 bw. Whereas a rate of 20 and 200 ng. -As no marked alterations of the glomerular filtration rate occurred, sodium retention observed was mainly due to tubular effects of A II. Plasma aldosterone concentration increased at 4, 20 and 200 ng A II X min-1 X kg-1 bw in the intact dogs.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Control of right atrial pressure at constant cardiac output suppresses volume natriuresis in anesthetized rats 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The blood volume of anesthetized rats was expanded acutely by 33% with donor blood while a caval snare was gradually tightened so that right atrial pressure (RAP) was prevented from rising (n = 6). In control experiments (n = 5) an aortic snare was used to hold mean arterial blood pressure near the values found in the experimental series. However, RAP was allowed to change freely and increased by 1.6 +/- 0.4 mmHg (1 mmHg = 133.322 Pa) during volume expansion. When the two groups were compared, there were no significant differences between their mean arterial blood pressures (near 110 mmHg) or in their cardiac outputs (near 0.25 mL X min-1 X g body weight-1). There were, however, significant differences between their renal responses to the volume load. When RAP was free to change, the rate of volume excretion (V) increased to 30 +/- 15 (SEM) microL X min-1 X g kidney weight-1 (KW) from its control value of 3.49 +/- 0.31 and the rate of sodium excretion (UNaV) increased to 3.59 +/- 0.20 muequiv X min-1 X g KW-1 from its preinfusion value of 0.42 +/- 0.10. When RAP was not allowed to increase during volume loading, V and UNaV did not change from their respective preinfusion values (2.99 +/- 0.46 microL X min-1 X g KW-1 and 0.35 +/- 0.10 muequiv X min-1 X g KW-1). The results imply that during acute blood volume expansion increased central vascular pressure is a prerequisite for the homeostasis of body water and salt. 相似文献

Glyoxalase is one of two enzymes of the glyoxalase detoxification system against methylglyoxal and other aldehydes, the metabolites derived from glycolysis. The glyoxalase system is found almost in all living organisms: bacteria, protozoa, plants, and animals, including humans, and is related to the class of ‘life essential proteins’. The enzyme belongs to the expanded Glyoxalase/Bleomycin resistance protein/Dioxygenase superfamily. At present the GenBank contains about 700 of amino acid sequences of this enzyme type, and the Protein Data Bank includes dozens of spatial structures. We have offered a novel approach for structural identification of glyoxalase I protein family, which is based on the selecting of basic representative proteins with known structures. On this basis, six new subfamilies of these enzymes have been derived. Most populated subfamilies A1 and A2 were based on representative human Homo sapiens and bacterial Escherichia coli enzymes. We have found that the principle feature, which defines the subfamilies’ structural differences, is conditioned by arrangement of N- and C-domains inside the protein monomer. Finely, we have deduced the structural classification for the glyoxalase I and assigned about 460 protein sequences distributed among six new subfamilies. Structural similarities and specific differences of all the subfamilies have been presented. This approach can be used for structural identification of thousands of the so-called hypothetical proteins with the known PDB structures allowing to identify many of already existing atomic coordinate entrees. 相似文献

The ubiquitous glyoxalase system removes methylglyoxal as a harmful by‐product of glycolysis. Because malaria parasites have drastically increased glycolytic fluxes, they could be highly susceptible to the inhibition of this detoxification pathway. Here we analysed the intracellular localization, oligomerization and inhibition of the glyoxalases from Plasmodium falciparum. Glyoxalase I (GloI) and one of the two glyoxalases II (cGloII) were located in the cytosol of the blood stages. The second glyoxalase II (tGloII) was detected in the apicoplast pointing to alternative metabolic pathways. Using a variety of methods, cGloII was found to exist in a monomer–dimer equilibrium that might have been overlooked for homologues from other organisms and that could be of physiological importance. The compounds methyl‐gerfelin and curcumin, which were previously shown to inhibit mammalian GloI, also inhibited P. falciparum GloI. Inhibition patterns were predominantly competitive but were complicated because of the two different active sites of the enzyme. This effect was neglected in previous inhibition studies of monomeric glyoxalases I, with consequences for the interpretation of inhibition constants. In summary, the present work reveals novel general glyoxalase properties that future research can build on and provides a significant advance in characterizing the glyoxalase system from P. falciparum. 相似文献
