The formation ofcis-l,2,-dihydroxy-l,2,-dihydronaphthalene from naphthalene by naphthalene oxygenase, purified fromCorynebacterium renale ATCC 15075, was demonstrated to involve oxidation of a mol NADH and consumption of one mol oxygen. The enzyme contains one g-atom Fe2+ and one FAD. Catalase inhibited product formation and H2O2 could substitute for NADH in the reaction. Superoxide dismutase inhibited enzyme activity when either NADH or H2O2 was present; the generation of superoxide anion on addition of NADH to the enzyme, in the absence of naphthalene, was detected by the nitro blue tetrazolium reduction method. Hydroxyl radical scavengers, ethanol, mannitol and sodium benzoate, inhibited product formation when either NADH or H2O2 was present. Electron spin resonance studies, under aerobic conditions, indicated that iron of the enzyme underwent valence changes during the course of the reaction 相似文献

Coenzyme and substrate interactions with mannitol-1-phosphate dehydrogenase fromEscherichia coli (a dimer of MW 45,000) have been studied by fluorescence spectroscopy. NAD+ quenches the fluorescence emission of the protein tryptophan residues; shifting the excitation wavelength from 280 to 290 nm results in an increase in this quenching and a red shift in the emission maximum. NAD+ also quenches the fluorescence of covalently attached pyridoxyl phosphate, and this quenching is accompanied by a spectral broadening above 425 nm. Fructose-6-phosphate increases the binding of NAD+, but causes a slight reduction in the quenching of the tryptophan fluorescence observed at saturating levels of coenzyme, and reverses the NAD+-induced broadening in the pyridoxyl phosphate emission spectrum. NADH quenches the protein emission much less than NAD+; this quenching is not changed by shifting the excitation wavelength and is not affected by the presence of bound mannitol-1-phosphate. Titrations monitoring the quenching by NADH indicate a single class of NADH binding sites, while titrations monitoring NADH fluorescence suggest that coenzyme fluorescence is more enhanced when NADH is bound to less than half of the total enzyme subunits, with the emission per NADH molecule bound decreasing as the number of NADH molecules bound increases. In the absence of coenzyme, neither fructose-6-phosphate nor mannitol-1-phosphate have any effect on the protein tryptophan emission; however, both substrates induce specific changes in the emission spectrum of covalently attached pyridoxyl phosphate. These results suggest that the different coenzymes and substrates cause specific conformational changes in mannitol-1-phosphate dehydrogenase. 相似文献

The contribution of trypanosomatid mitochondrial complex I for energy transduction has long been debated. Herein, we summarize current knowledge on the composition and relevance of this enzyme. Bioinformatic and proteomic analyses allowed the identification of many conserved and trypanosomatid-specific subunits of NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase, revealing a multifunctional enzyme capable of performing bioenergetic activities and possibly, also of functioning in fatty acid metabolism. A multimeric structure organized in 5 domains of more than 2 MDa is predicted, in contrast to the 1 MDa described for mammalian complex I. The relevance of mitochondrial complex I within the Trypanosomatidae family is quite diverse with its NADH oxidation activity being dispensable for both procyclic and bloodstream Trypanosoma brucei, whereas in Phytomonas serpens the enzyme is the only respiratory complex able to sustain membrane potential. Aside from complex I, trypanosomatid mitochondria contain a type II NADH dehydrogenase and a NADH-dependent fumarate reductase as alternative electron entry points into the respiratory chain and thus, some trypanosomatids may have bypassed the need for complex I. The involvement of each of these enzymes in the maintenance of the mitochondrial redox balance in trypanosomatids is still an open question and requires further investigation. 相似文献

Lysosome-solubilized pig liver NADH-cytochrome b5 reductase is inactivated by 5′-p-fluorosulfonylbenzoyladenosine (5′-FSBA) following pseudo-first-order kinetics. A double reciprocal plot of 1/K obs versus 1/[5′-FSBA] yields a straight line with a positiveY intercept, indicative of reversible binding of the analogue prior to an irreversible incorporation.K d or the initial reversible enzyme-analogue complex is estimated at 185 µM withK 2=0.22 min?1 (atpH 8.0 and 25°C). A stoichiometry of 1.2 moles of analogue bound/mole of enzyme at 100% inactivation has been determined from incorporation studies using 5′-p-fluorosulfonylbenzoyl-[14C]adenosine. The irreversible inactivation as well as the covalent incorporation could be completely prevented by the presence of NADH, the substrate of enzyme, during the incubation. Four 5′-FSBA-labeled peptides were isolated by reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography of tryptic digest of the modified NADH-cytochrome b5 reductase and their amino acid sequences were determined. These peptides appear to be related to the NADH binding site of the enzyme. 相似文献

The oxidation of succinate with elemental sulphur in Desulfuromonas acetoxidans was investigated using a membrane preparation of this bacterium. The following results were obtained:
- The preparation catalyzed the oxidation of succinate with sulphur and NAD. These reactions were dependent on ATP and were abolished by the presence of protonophores or dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD).
- The membrane preparation also catalyzed the reduction of fumarate with H2S or with NADH. These activities were not dependent on ATP and were not affected by protonophores or DCCD.
- By extraction-reincorporation experiments it could be shown that menaquinone is involved in electron transport between H2S and fumarate and between NADH and fumarate.
- The membrane fraction catalyzed the reduction of the water-soluble menaquinone-analogue dimethylnaphthoquinone (DMN) by succinate, H2S, or NADH, and the oxidation of DMNH2 by fumarate. These activities were not dependent on the presence of menaquinone and were not influenced by ATP.
- The activities involving succinate oxidation or fumarate reduction were similarly sensitive to 2(n-nonyl)-4-hydroxyquinoline-N-oxide, while H2S and NADH oxidation by DMN were not affected by the inhibitor.

The energy-converting NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase, respiratory complex I, couples the transfer of electrons from NADH to ubiquinone with the translocation of protons across the membrane. Electron microscopy and X-ray crystallography revealed the two-part structure of the enzyme complex. A peripheral arm extending into the aqueous phase catalyzes the electron transfer reaction. Accordingly, this arm contains the redox-active cofactors, namely one flavin mononucleotide (FMN) and up to ten iron-sulfur (Fe/S) clusters. A membrane arm embedded in the lipid bilayer catalyzes proton translocation by a yet unknown mechanism. The binding site of the substrate (ubi) quinone is located at the interface of the two arms. The oxidation of one NADH is coupled with the translocation of four protons across the membrane. In this review, the binding of the substrates, the intramolecular electron transfer, the role of individual Fe/S clusters and the mechanism of proton translocation are discussed in the light of recent data obtained from our laboratory. 相似文献

- Proteus mirabilis formed fumarate reductase under anaerobic growth conditions. The formation of this reductase was repressed under conditions of growth during which electron transport to oxygen or to nitrate is possible. In two of three tested chlorateresistant mutant strains of the wild type, fumarate reductase appeared to be affected.
- Cytoplasmic membrane suspensions isolated from anaerobically grownP. mirabilis oxidized formate and NADH with oxygen and with fumarate, too.
- Spectral investigation of the cytoplasmic membrane preparation revealed the presence of (probably at least two types of) cytochromeb, cytochromea 1 and cytochromed. Cytochromeb was reduced by NADH as well as by formate to approximately 80%.
- 2-n-Heptyl-4-hydroxyquinoline-N-oxide and antimycin A inhibited oxidation of both formate and NADH by oxygen and fumarate. Both inhibitors increased the level of the formate/oxygen steady state and the formate/fumarate steady state.
- The site of inhibition of the respiratory activity by both HQNO and antimycin A was located at the oxidation side of cytochromeb.
- The effect of ultraviolet-irradiation of cytoplasmic membrane suspensions on oxidation/reduction phenomena suggested that the role of menaquinone is more exclusive in the formate/fumarate pathway than in the electron transport route to oxygen.
- Finally, the conclusion has been drawn that the preferential route for electron transport from formate and from NADH to fumarate (and to oxygen) includes cytochromeb as a directly involved carrier. A hypothetical scheme for the electron transport in anaerobically grownP. mirabilis is presented.

The activities of pyruvate dehydrogenase and oxo-glutarate dehydrogenase can be reliably measured by coupling the production of NADH to the reduction of added cytochromec. Maximum activities required the addition of NADH-cytochromec reductase activity prepared from rat heart mitochondria. Compared to other spectrophotometric assays this method provides an eight-fold increase in sensitivity and is particularly suitable for use with small tissue samples such as needle-biopsy samples of human skeletal muscle. Measurements of activities in rat tissues showed them to be in the order skeletal muscle < liver < heart ≤brown adipose tissue. Activities in normal human skeletal muscle were similar to those of rat muscle, tn the rat tissues specific differences were seen in the relative activities of the two complexes and cytochromec oxidase suggesting tissue-specific differences in the activities of the dehydrogenases and components of the electron-transport chain. 相似文献

l-(+)-lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) from Staphylococcus epidermidis ATCC 14990 was purified by affinity chromatography. The purified enzyme was specifically activated by fructose-1,6-diphosphate (FDP). The concentration of FDP required for 50% maximal activity was about 0.15 mM. The enzyme activity was inhibited by adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and oxamate. The inhibition by ADP appeared to be competitive with respect to reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH). The catalytic activity of the LDH for pyruvate reduction exhibited an optimum at pH 5.6. The enzyme is composed of four, probably identical, subunits. Sephadex gel filtration and sedimentation velocity at pH 5.6 yielded molecular weights of about 130000 and 126000 respectively. The molecular weight at pH 6.5 and 7.0 was found to be only about 68000. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecylsulfate and sedimentation velocity at pH 2.0 or 8.5 revealed monomeric subunits with an approximate molecular weight of 36000. The thermostability of the heat labile enzyme was increased in the presence of FDP, NADH and pyruvate. The purified LDH exhibited an anomalous type of kinetic behavior. Plots of initial velocity vs. different concentrations of pyruvate, NADH or FDP led to saturation curves with intermediary plateau regions. As a consequence of these plateau regions the Hill coefficient alternated between lower and higher n-values. Some distinguishing properties of the S. epidermidis LDH and other LDHs activated by FDP are discussed. 相似文献

The proton-translocating NADH-quinone oxidoreductase (complex I/NDH-1) is the first and largest enzyme of the respiratory chain which has a central role in cellular energy production and is implicated in many human neurodegenerative diseases and aging. It is believed that the peripheral domain of complex I/NDH-1 transfers the electron from NADH to Quinone (Q) and the redox energy couples the proton translocation in the membrane domain. To investigate the mechanism of the proton translocation, in a series of works we have systematically studied all membrane subunits in the Escherichia coli NDH-1 by site-directed mutagenesis. In this mini-review, we have summarized our strategy and results of the mutagenesis by depicting residues essential for proton translocation, along with those for subunit connection. It is suggested that clues to understanding the driving forces of proton translocation lie in the similarities and differences of the membrane subunits, highlighting the communication of essential charged residues among the subunits. A possible proton translocation mechanism with all membrane subunits operating in unison is described. 相似文献

The inhibition of fructose utilization by whole cells of Hydrogenomonas eutropha H 16, following the addition of hydrogen to the gas phase, has been explained as an inhibition of glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (Blackkolb and Schlegel, 1968a, b). The intracellular concentrations of glucose 6-phosphate, 6-phosphogluconate, three inhibitors of the enzyme (NADH, ATP and phosphoenolpyruvate) and some related metabolites were measured in cells incubated in the presence and absence of hydrogen. Inhibition of glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase was confirmed by an increase in the glucose 6-phosphate pool and a decrease in the 6-phosphogluconate concentration. The regulatory control is apparently due to a threefold increase in the NADH concentration while the concentrations of the other two inhibitors fell slightly. When the measured intracellular concentrations of intermediates were used in the in vitro assay of glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity, an almost total inhibition of the dehydrogenase was observed, therefore further regulatory factors must be considered. 相似文献

The efficient regeneration of nicotinamide cofactors is an important process for industrial applications because of their high cost and stoichiometric requirements. In this study, the FDH1 β-subunit of NAD-dependent formate dehydrogenase from Methylobacterium extorquens AM1 was heterologously expressed in Escherichia coli. It showed water-forming NADH oxidase (NOX-2) activity in the absence of its α-subunit. The β-subunit oxidized NADH and generated NAD+. The enzyme showed a low NADH oxidation activity (0.28 U/mg enzyme). To accelerate electron transfer from the enzyme to oxygen, four electron mediators were tested; flavin mononucleotide, flavin adenine dinucleotide, benzyl viologen (BV), and methyl viologen. All tested electron mediators increased enzyme activity; addition of 250 μM BV resulted in the largest increase in enzyme activity (9.98 U/mg enzyme; a 35.6-fold increase compared with that in the absence of an electron mediator). Without the aid of an electron mediator, the enzyme had a substrate-binding affinity for NADH (K m) of 5.87 μM, a turnover rate (k cat) of 0.24/sec, and a catalytic efficiency (k cat/K m) of 41.31/mM/sec. The addition of 50 μM BV resulted in a 22.75-fold higher turnover rate (k cat, 5.46/sec) and a 2.64-fold higher catalytic efficiency (k cat/K m, 107.75/mM/sec). 相似文献

Dibromothymoquinone (2,5-dibromo, 6-isopropyl, 3-methyl benzoquinone, DBMIB) is a quinone analogue recently introduced as a specific inhibitor of chloroplast photosynthesis at the level of plastoquinone. In beef heart mitochondria DBMIB inhibits the oxidation of both succinate and NAD linked substrates; the apparent KI is 6 μM for βhydroxybutyrate oxidation and 61μM for succinate oxidation respectively. In sonic fragments NADH oxidation is also inhibited; however, the rotenone block of respiration can be partially bypassed by the autooxidation of reduced DBMIB. Under the same conditions succinoxidase of ETP is inhibited, as in intact mitochondria; autoxidation of DBMIB reduced by succinate can however be obtained in presence of detergents. Hexahydrocoenzyme Q4 reverses the DBMIB inhibition of succinate in sonic fragments. The site of inhibition by DBMIB is the oxygen side of CoQ, since DBMIB can function as electron acceptor in the NADH-CoQ assay for site I energization in submitochondrial particles, studied by measuring the quenching of atebrin fluorescence. 相似文献

It has been described that A disintegrin and metalloproteinase (ADAM10) may involve in the physiopathology of prion diseases, but the direct molecular basis still remains unsolved. In this study, we confirmed that ADAM10 was able to cleave recombinant human prion protein in vitro. Using immunoprecipitation tests (IP) and immunofluorescent assays (IFA), reliable molecular interaction between the native cellular form of PrP (PrPC) and ADAM10 was observed not only in various cultured neuronal cell lines but also in brain homogenates of healthy hamsters and mice. Only mature ADAM10 (after removal of its prodomain) molecules showed the binding activity with the native PrPC. Remarkably more prion protein (PrP)-ADAM10 complexes were detected in the membrane fraction of cultured cells. In the scrapie-infected SMB cell model, the endogenous ADAM10 levels, especially the mature ADAM10, were significantly decreased in the fraction of cell membrane. IP and IFA tests of prion-infected SMB-S15 cells confirmed no detectable PrP-ADAM10 complex in the cellular lysates and PrP-ADAM10 co-localization on the cell surface. Furthermore, we demonstrated that the levels of ADAM10 in the brain homogenates of scrapie agent 263K-infected hamsters and agent ME7-infected mice were also almost diminished at the terminal stage, showing time-dependent decreases during the incubation period. Our data here provide the solid molecular basis for the endoproteolysis of ADAM10 on PrP molecules and interaction between ADAM10 and PrPC. Obvious loss of ADAM10 during prion infection in vitro and in vivo highlights that ADAM10 may play essential pathophysiological roles in prion replication and accumulation. 相似文献

Nitrate reductase of the salt tolerant alga Dunaliella parva, in contrast to that of most green algae, can use NADPH as well as NADH as electron donor. Extracts of cells contained various amounts of latent nitrate reductase. The latent enzyme could be activated at 45°C but only in the presence of flavine adenine dinucleotide. The heat activated enzyme did not require flavine adenine dinucleotide for activity and was fully active with NADH, NADPH or reduced flavine mononucleotide as electron donors. 相似文献

Epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor (EGFR) emerges as an essential molecule for the regulating of osteoblast cellular functions. In the current study, we explored the effect of epiregulin, a new EGFR ligand, on osteoblast functions in vitro, and studied the underlying mechanisms. We found that epiregulin-induced EGFR activation in both primary osteoblasts and osteoblast-like MC3T3-E1 cells. Meanwhile, epiregulin activated AKT-mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) and Erk-mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signalings in cultured osteoblasts, which were blocked by EGFR inhibitor AG1478 or monoclonal antibody against EGFR (anti-EGFR). Further, in primary and MC3T3-E1 osteoblasts, epiregulin promoted cell proliferation and increased alkaline phosphatase activity, while inhibiting dexamethasone (Dex)-induced cell death. Such effects by epiregulin were largely inhibited by AG1478 or anti-EGFR. Notably, AKT-mTOR inhibitors, but not Erk inhibitors, alleviated epiregulin-induced above pleiotropic functions in osteoblasts. Meanwhile, siRNA depletion of Sin1, a key component of mTOR complex 2 (mTORC2), also suppressed epiregulin-exerted effects in MC3T3-E1 cells. Together, these results suggest that epiregulin-induced pleiotropic functions in cultured osteoblasts are mediated through EGFR-AKT-mTOR signalings. 相似文献

The effects of spermidine, pH, ethylene diamine tetracetic acid (EDTA), and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) on deoxyribonuclease (DNase) activity associated with the chloroplasts of soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) were investigated. Chloroplast DNase activity was found to be partially inhibited by either 10 mM spermidine, 20 mM EDTA, or 20 mM ATP. DNase activity was also partially inhibited at non-neutral pH's. Nearly complete inhibition was achieved with use of 30 mM EDTA, pH 10, or a combination of 10 mM spermidine and 10 mM EDTA. 相似文献
