We have synthesized phenyl adenine dinucleotide (P1-adenosine-5')-P2-(beta-D-ribofuranosylbenzene-5')-pyrophosphate (PhAD), a novel analog of pyridine nucleotide coenzymes. This compound contains a planar aromatic ring, as does NAD+, but lacks a positive charge. PhAD is an inhibitor of horse liver alcohol dehydrogenase, competitive with NADH. PhAD is very similar to NAD+ sterically since both compounds have a planar aromatic ring. However, PhAD resembles NADH in binding to the enzyme because the dissociation constants of both compounds show a parallel increase as the pH is raised, whereas those of NAD+ behave in the opposite manner. These observations indicate that the enzyme differentiates between NAD+ and NADH on the basis of the positive charge on the molecule and not the stereochemical orientation of the reduced nicotinamide ring.

Heat denaturation of horse liver alcohol dehydrogenase was followed in the presence of isobutyramide at various degrees of saturation of the binding sites by NADH. A study of the fluorescence enhancement which is observed when an excess of NADH is added to the partially denatured mixtures provides information regarding the relative concentrations of mono- and bioccupied enzyme molecules. This approach is of value in situations when the association constants for coenzyme are so large that the concentration of the free ligand is negligible. The results obtained indicate that the binding of NADH to liver alcohol dehydrogenase follows the statistically predicted distribution. At the same time evidence was obtained for interaction between the two subunits of the enzyme.

Extensive and informative steady-state kinetic investigations of the mechanisms of horse liver alcohol dehydrogenase have recently been complemented by observations of the fluorescence and spectroscopic characteristics of transient intermediates by rapid-reaction techniques. In this way it was possible to study separately steps involved during enzyme-substrate complex formation and during the catalytic process. It can be shown that a proton is liberated during complex formation before the transfer of a hydride ion from ethanol to form NADH. This must be due to a change in pK of a group on the enzyme protein and is linked to a change in tryptophan fluorescence. Pressure relaxation techniques have enabled us to study the rate constants of the change in tryptophan fluorescence linked to NAD+ binding and proton dissociation. We have shown that NAD+ binding occurs in two steps: a rapid secondorder association, followed by the substrate-induced isomerization to form the reactive enzyme-substrate intermediate. The isomerization rate constants were determined in both directions and their role in the overall reaction mechanism could be identified.

Resonance energy transfer from Trp-314 to ionized Tyr-286 was proposed (Laws, W. R., and Shore, J. D. (1978) J. Biol. Chem. 253, 8593-8597) as the mechanism for the observed decrease in protein fluorescence of liver alcohol dehydrogenase seen with alkaline pH, or with the formation of a ternary complex with NAD+ and trifluoroethanol. In the present study, ultraviolet difference spectra confirm the presence of ionized tyrosine not only in these two cases but also in the ternary complex with NADH and isobutyramide. Our results indicate that ternary complex formation, with either oxidized or reduced coenzyme, causes a conformational change leading to partial ionization of tyrosine residues in regions of the enzyme far from the active site.

alpha-L-Glycerolphosphate dehydrogenase (sn-glycerol-3-phosphate:NAD+ 2-oxidoreductase, EC 1.1.1.8) from Saccharomyces carlsbergensis was purified 400-fold. The enzyme preparation is free of interfering activities, such as glyceraldehyde phosphate dehydrogenase, alcohol dehydrogenase, triose phosphate isomerase and glycerolphosphatase. At pH 7.0 it is specific for NADH (Km = 0.027 mM with 0.8 mM dihydroxyacetone phosphate) and dihydroxyacetone phosphate (Km = 0.2 mM with 0.2 mM NADH). Between pH 5.0 and 6.0 the enzyme functions with NADPH, but only at 7% of the rate with NADH. Various anions (I- greater than SO42- greater than Br- greater than Cl-) act as inhibitors competing with the substrate dihydroxyacetone phosphate. Inorganic phosphate (Ki = 0.1 mM), pyrophosphate and arsenate are strong inhibitors. The nucleotides ATP and ADP are also inhibitory, but their action seems to be of the same type as the general anion competition (Ki = 0.73 mM for ATP). The results are consistent with the notion that the enzyme may regulate the redox potential of the NAD+/NADH couple during fermentation.

1. The effects of coenzyme NAD and related compounds on the electrophoretic properties of the human ADH isozymes have been examined by the technique of affinity electrophoresis. 2. Incorporation of NAD, NADH or AMP into a starch-gel matrix leads to retardation in the cathodal mobilities of the gamma 2 gamma 2 and alpha alpha isozymes, but not the beta 1 beta 1 and gamma 1 gamma 1 isozymes. The heterodimeric isozymes show intermediate effects, and the genetic polymorphism at the ADH3 locus is only discernible if electrophoresis is carried out in the presence of coenzyme. 3. The behaviour of the ioszymes can be attributed to slight differences between the products (alpha, beta 1 and gamma 1) of the common alleles at the three ADH loci and a pronounced difference between the products (gamma 1 and gamma 2) of the alternative alleles at the ADH3 locus in their affinities for the cofactor NAD.

The kinetic and spectral properties of native and totally cobalt-substituted liver alcohol dehydrogenase have been compared. Based on titrimetric determinations of enzyme active site concentration, the turnover number at pH 7.0 for cobalt enzyme was the same as for native enzyme. At pH 10, however, the turnover number was slower for cobalt-substituted enzyme, 3.14 s-1 as compared with 4.05 s-1 for native enzyme. A comparison between native and totally cobalt-substituted enzyme showed a blue-shifted enzyme-NADH double difference spectrum and a splitting and red-shifted enzyme-NAD+-pyrazole double difference spectrum in the near-ultraviolet. The 655-nm peak of the cobalt-substituted enzyme was perturbed by the formation of enzyme-NADH binary complex, enzyme-NAD+-trifloroethanol ternary complex, and enzyme-NAD+ binary complex formation. At pH 7.0, the only observable step in the reaction sequence with a significantly different rate constant for cobalt enzyme was the catalytic hydrogen-transferring step. The rate constant for this step is 92 s-1 for totally cobalt-substituted enzyme as compared with 138 s-1 for native liver alcohol dehydrogenase. The results of this study indicate that zinc is involved in catalysis alcohol and NADH.

New transient kinetic methods, which allow kinetics to be carried out under conditions of excess substrate, have been employed to investigate the kinetics of hydride transfer from NADH to aromatic aldehydes and from aromatic alcohols to NAD+ as a function of pH. The hydride transfer rate from 4-deuterio-NADH to beta-naphthaldehyde is nearly pH independent from pH 6.0 to pH 9.9; the isotope effect is also pH independent with kappa-H/kappaD congruent to 2.3. Likewise, the rate of oxidation of benzyl alcohol by NAD+ changes little with pH between pH 8.75 and pH 5.9; the isotope effect for this process is between 3.0 and 4.4. Earlier substituent effect studies on the reduction of aromatic aldehydes were consistent with electrophilic catalysis by either zinc or a protonic acid. The pH independence of hydride transfer is consistent with electrophilic catalysis by zinc since such catalysis by protonic acid (with a pK between 6.0 and 10.0) would show strong pH dependence. However, protonic acid catalysis cannot be excluded if the pKa of the acid catalyst in the ternary NADH-E-RCOH complex were smaller than 6.0 or smaller than 10.0. The two kinetic parameters changing significantly with pH are the kinetic binding constant for ternary complex formation with aromatic alcohol and the rate of dissociation of aromatic alcohols from enzyme. This is consistent with base-catalyzed removal of a proton from alcohol substrated and consequent acid catalysis of protonation of a zinc-alcoholate complex. The equilibrium constant for hydride transfer from benzaldehyde to benzyl alcohol at pH 8.75 is K-eq equals kappa-H/kappa-H equals 42; this constant has important consequences concerning subunit interactions during liver alcohol dehydrogenase catalysis.

The effect of pH on steady state kinetic parameters for the yeast alcohol dehydrogenase-catalyzed reduction of aldehydes and oxidation of alcohols has been studied. The oxidation of p-CH3 benzyl alcohol-1,1-h2 and -1,1-d2 by NAD+ was found to be characterized by large deuterium isotope effects (kH/kD = 4.1 plus or minus 0.1) between pH 7.5 and 9.5, indicating a rate-limiting hydride trahsfer step in this pH range; a plot of kCAT versus pH could be fit to a theoretical titration curve, pK = 8.25, where kCAT increases with increasing pH. The Michaelis constnat for p-CH3 benzyl alcohol was independent of pH. The reduction of p-CH3 benzaldehyde by NADH and reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide with deuterium in the 4-A position (NADD) cound not be studied below pH 8.5 due to substrate inhibition; however, between pH 8.5 and 9.5, kCAT was found to decrease with increasing pH and to be characterized by significant isotope effects (kH/kD = 3.3 plus or minus 0.3). In the case of acetaldehyde reduction by NADH and NADD, isotope effects were found to be small and exxentially invariant (kH/kD = 2.O plus or minus 0.4) between pH 7.2 and 9.5, suggesting a partially rate-limiting hydride transger step for this substrate; a plot of kCAT/K'b (where K'b is the Michaelis constant for acetaldehyde) versus pH could be fit to a titration curve, pK = 8.25. The titration curve for acetaldehyde reduction has the same pK but is opposite in direction to that observed for p-CH3 benzyl alcohol oxidation. The data presented in this paper indicate a dependence on different enzyme forms for aldehyde reduction and alcohol oxidation and are consistent with a single active site side chain, pK = 8.25, which functions in acid-base catalysis of the hydride transfer step.

Yeast alcohol dehydrogenase is inactivated and alkylated by styrene oxide in a single exponential kinetic process. The concentration dependence of half-times for inactivation indicates the formation of an enzyme inhibitor complex, KI = 2.5 times 10(-2) M at pH 8.0. Reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH), at a concentration of 3 times 10(-4) M where Kd congruent to 1 times 10(-5) M, has a small effect on kinetic parameters for inactivation. Although benzyl alcohol and acetamide-NADH increase the KI for styrene oxide in a manner consistent with their dissociation constants, substrate also increases the rate of inactivation at high styrene oxide concentrations. The reciprocal of half-times for inactivation, extrapolated to infinite styrene oxide concentration, increases with pH between 7.6 and 9.0, pK congruent to 8.5. The stoichiometry of alkylation by [3H]styrene oxide is 2.2 mol of reagent incorporated/mol of subunit, and is accompanied by the loss of 1.9 mol of sulfhydryl/mol of subunit; prior alkylation with iodoacetamide reduces the stoichiometry to 0.88:1, and increases the rate of labeling. Tryptic digests of enzyme modified with [14C]iodoacetamide or [3H]styrene oxide produce two major peptides which cochromatograph, indicating that styrene oxide and iodoacetamide modify the same cysteine residues. Previous investigators have reported that iodoacetate, iodoacetamide, and butyl isocyanate alkylate either of two reactive cysteines of yeast alcohol dehydrogenase; both cysteines cannot be modified simultaneously [Belke et al. (1974), Biochemistry 13, 3418]. The inactivation of enzyme by p-chloromercuribenzoate (PCMB) is reported here to be accompanied by the incorporation of 2.3 mol of PCMB/mol of enzyme subunits, in analogy with styrene oxide; the planarity of the alkylating agent appears to be an important factor in determining the stoichiometry of labeling.
