Monoclonal antibodies (McAbs) specific to methamphetamine (MA) were produced using p-amino MA coupled to bovine serum albumin (BSA) with glutaraldehyde (GA) as an immunogen and with conventional hybridoma techniques. Hybridoma clones secreting the McAbs were selected by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) system using both the above conjugate and BSA modified with GA as screening antigens. In the ELISA system were used avidin and biotinyl-alkaline phosphatase which converts nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP) into NAD. The final enzyme activity was determined using diformazan of nitroblue tetrazolium formed together with the NAD produced, alcohol dehydrogenase and phenazine methosulfate. The McAbs from 9 clones were characterized by a crossreactivity test using the ELISA. The McAbs recognized MA (100%), methoxyphenamine (8.0%), ephedrine (2.3%), but did not react with metylephedrine, amphetamine, OH-amphetamine, dimethylamphetamine, beta-phenylethylamine, norephedrine, phentermine and ranitidine. An inhibition curve for MA was obtained in the range of 0.75 to 50 ng.

In the three-dimensional structures of enzymes that bind NAD or FAD, there is an acidic residue that interacts with the 2'- and 3'-hydroxyl groups of the adenosine ribose of the coenzyme. The size and charge of the carboxylate might repel the binding of the 2'-phosphate group of NADP and explain the specificity for NAD. In the NAD-dependent alcohol dehydrogenases, Asp-223 (horse liver alcohol dehydrogenase sequence) appears to have this role. The homologous residue in yeast alcohol dehydrogenase I (residue 201 in the protein sequence) was substituted with Gly, and the D223G enzyme was expressed in yeast, purified, and characterized. The wild-type enzyme is specific for NAD. In contrast, the D223G enzyme bound and reduced NAD+ and NADP+ equally well, but, relative to wild-type enzyme, the dissociation constant for NAD+ was increased 17-fold, and the reactivity (V/K) on ethanol was decreased to 1%. Even though catalytic efficiency was reduced, yeast expressing the altered or wild-type enzyme grew at comparable rates, suggesting that equilibration of NAD and NADP pools is not lethal. Asp-223 participates in binding NAD and in excluding NADP, but it is not the only residue important for determining specificity for coenzyme.

Three amino acid residues (glycine-14, cysteine-135, and cysteine-218) previously speculated to be important for the structure and function of Drosophila melanogaster alcohol dehydrogenase have been investigated by using site-directed mutagenesis followed by kinetic analysis and chemical modification. Mutating glycine-14 to valine (G14V) virtually inactivates Drosophila ADH, and substitution of alanine at this position (G14A) causes a 31% decrease in activity. Thermal denaturation and kinetic and inhibition studies further demonstrate that replacing glycine-14 with either alanine or valine leads to structural changes in the NAD binding domain. These results provide direct evidence for the role played by glycine-14 in maintaining the correct conformation in the NAD binding domain. On the other hand, changing of cysteine-135, -218, or both to alanine (C135A, C218A, and C135A/C218A) causes no decrease in the catalytic activity of the enzyme, indicating that neither of the cysteinyl residues is essential for catalysis. C135A and wild-type enzyme are both inactivated by DTNB. In contrast, C218A and C135A/C218A are unaffected by DTNB treatment. DTNB modification of cysteine-218 can be prevented by the substrates NAD and 2-propanol, suggesting that cysteine-218 may be in the vicinity of the active site. Cysteine-135 which is normally insensitive to DTNB becomes accessible in the presence of 2-propanol and/or NAD, suggesting a conformational change induced by binding of these substrates.

The enzyme 2,3-dihydro-2,3-dihydroxybenzoate dehydrogenase (2,3-diDHB dehydrogenase, hereafter Ent A), the product of the enterobactin biosynthetic gene entA, catalyzes the NAD(+)-dependent oxidation of the dihydroaromatic substrate 2,3-dihydro-2,3-dihydroxybenzoate (2,3-diDHB) to the aromatic catecholic product 2,3-dihydroxybenzoate (2,3-DHB). The catechol 2,3-DHB is one of the key siderophore units of enterobactin, a potent iron chelator secreted by Escherichia coli. To probe the reaction mechanism of this oxidation, a variety of 2,3-diDHB analogues were synthesized and tested as substrates. Specifically, we set out to elucidate both the regio- and stereospecificity of alcohol oxidation as well as the stereochemistry of NAD+ reduction. Of those analogues tested, only those with a C3-hydroxyl group (but not a C2-hydroxyl group) were oxidized to the corresponding ketone products. Reversibility of the Ent A catalyzed reaction was demonstrated with the corresponding NADH-dependent reduction of 3-ketocyclohexane- and cyclohexene-1-carboxylates but not the 2-keto compounds. These results establish that Ent A functions as an alcohol dehydrogenase to specifically oxidize the C3-hydroxyl group of 2,3-diDHB to produce the corresponding 2-hydroxy-3-oxo-4,6-cyclohexadiene-1-carboxylate (Scheme II) as a transient species that undergoes rapid aromatization to give 2,3-DHB. Stereospecificity of the C3 allylic alcohol group oxidation was confirmed to be 3R in a 1R,3R dihydro substrate, 3, and hydride transfer occurs to the si face of enzyme-bound NAD+.

Transient kinetic data for partial reactions of alcohol dehydrogenase and simulations of progress curves have led to estimates of rate constants for the following mechanism, at pH 8.0 and 25 degrees C: E in equilibrium E-NAD+ in equilibrium *E-NAD+ in equilibrium E-NAD(+)-RCH2OH in equilibrium E-NAD+-RCH2O- in equilibrium *E-NADH-RCHO in equilibrium E-NADH-RCHO in equilibrium E-NADH in equilibrium E. Previous results show that the E-NAD+ complex isomerizes with a forward rate constant of 620 s-1 [Sekhar, V. C., & Plapp, B. V. (1988) Biochemistry 27, 5082-5088]. The enzyme-NAD(+)-alcohol complex has a pK value of 7.2 and loses a proton rapidly (greater than 1000 s-1). The transient oxidation of ethanol is 2-fold faster in D2O, and proton inventory results suggest that the transition state has a charge of -0.3 on the substrate oxygen. Rate constants for hydride ion transfer in the forward or reverse reactions were similar for short-chain aliphatic substrates (400-600 s-1). A small deuterium isotope effect for transient oxidation of longer chain alcohols is apparently due to the isomerization of the E-NAD+ complex. The transient reduction of aliphatic aldehydes showed no primary deuterium isotope effect; thus, an isomerization of the E-NADH-aldehyde complex is postulated, as isomerization of the E-NADH complex was too fast to be detected. The estimated microscopic rate constants show that the observed transient reactions are controlled by multiple steps.

Mitochondria obtained from alcohol dehydrogenase-positive or - negative deermice do not oxidize significant amounts of ethanol at pH 7.4. A slight activity, equivalent to less than 0.3% of the elimination rate in alcohol dehydrogenase-negative deermice was observed at pH 10; it was strongly inhibited by cyanide and thiourea, and was not dependent on exogenous NAD. Whereas ethanol oxidation by the cytosol of alcohol dehydrogenase-positive deermice was time-dependent, that of mitochondria from alcohol dehydrogenase-negative deermice was not. These findings indicate that deermice mitochondria do not oxidize ethanol at physiological pH, and that the mitochondrial system is not likely to play a significant physiologic role.

Molecular modeling of alcohol dehydrogenase suggests that His-47 in the yeast enzyme (His-44 in the protein sequence, corresponding to Arg-47 in the horse liver enzyme) binds the pyrophosphate of the NAD coenzyme. His-47 in the Saccharomyces cerevisiae isoenzyme I was substituted with an arginine by a directed mutation. Steady-state kinetic results at pH 7.3 and 30 degrees C of the mutant and wild-type enzymes were consistent with an ordered Bi-Bi mechanism. The substitution decreased dissociation constants by 4-fold for NAD+ and 2-fold for NADH while turnover numbers were decreased by 4-fold for ethanol oxidation and 6-fold for acetaldehyde reduction. The magnitudes of these effects are smaller than those found for the same mutation in the human liver beta enzyme, suggesting that other amino acid residues in the active site modulate the effects of the substitution. The pH dependencies of dissociation constants and other kinetic constants were similar in the two yeast enzymes. Thus, it appears that His-47 is not solely responsible for a pK value near 7 that controls activity and coenzyme binding rates in the wild-type enzyme. The small substrate deuterium isotope effect above pH 7 and the single exponential phase of NADH production during the transient oxidation of ethanol by the Arg-47 enzyme suggest that the mutation makes an isomerization of the enzyme-NAD+ complex limiting for turnover with ethanol.

Three different dehydrogenases able to oxidize formaldehyde were found in the Gram-positive methylotroph, Nocardia sp. 239: an NAD-dependent aldehyde dehydrogenase (NA-ADH), and NAD- and factor-dependent formaldehyde dehydrogenase (FD-FDH), and a dye-linked aldehyde dehydrogenase (DL-ADH). The ratio of the activities observed for the two NAD-linked enzymes varied with growth conditions: batch-wise grown cells had nearly the same activities for both enzymes; in fed batch-wise grown cells (methanol limitation) only FD-FDH was detected. The latter is clearly involved in formaldehyde oxidation, since the enzyme and the factor were found only in methanol-grown cells and the enzyme is specific for formaldehyde. In contrast, the two aldehyde dehydrogenases may have significance for aldehyde dissimilation in general, since both activities could also be demonstrated in ethanol-grown cells (but not in glucose-grown cells) and higher aldehydes are even better substrates than formaldehyde. NA-ADH was purified to homogeneity. The enzyme seems to be a homotetramer since it showed a relative molecular mass of 200,000 and the denaturated form of 55,000. Other characteristics are as follows: the enzyme showed substrate inhibition for the aldehydes tested; optimal activity was found at pH 9.2; the reverse reaction was not observed; the enzyme was specific for NAD; GSH, K+, or NH4+ addition did not stimulate formaldehyde oxidation; the order of NAD and substrate addition to the enzyme was not important; several compounds able to block SH groups were inhibitory. Comparison with NAD-linked aldehyde dehydrogenases from Gram-negative bacteria showed that the Nocardia enzyme is distinct from the enzyme of Pseudomonas putida (EC 1.2.1.46) and of Hyphomicrobium X.

Activation parameters for each reaction step in the kinetic mechanism of liver alcohol dehydrogenase have been measured for the oxidation of ethanol and the reduction of acetaldehyde. In the oxidation process, the highest enthalpy of activation, 9.7 kcal/mol, occurs for the turnover of the liver alcohol dehydrogenase-NAD(+)-ethanol ternary complex. To investigate if this enthalpy requirement represents a change in the ionization state of ethanol bound in the ternary complex, inhibition of ethanol oxidation was determined using the following series of small, electronegative alcohols with pKa values ranging from 12.37 to 15.5: 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol, 2,2,2-trichloroethanol, 2,2,2-tribromoethanol, 2,2-dichloroethanol, 2,2-difluoroethanol, propargyl alcohol, 3-hydroxypropionitrile, 2-chloroethanol, 2-iodoethanol, 2-methoxyethanol, ethylene glycol, and methanol. The observed inhibition patterns were analyzed according to several kinetic inhibition models; in each case, the best fit model was used to determine the substrate competitive inhibition constant. A plot of the logarithm of these inhibition constants is shown to be dependent on the pKa values of the inhibiting alcohols with a slope approaching -1, indicating that inhibition is controlled by a proton loss from the alcohol. The observed competitive inhibition behavior, coupled with crystallographic studies depicting a direct ligation of an alcohol oxygen to the catalytic zinc ion, indicates that inhibition is controlled by the formation of a zinc-bound alkoxide. Because the inhibiting alcohols are structurally homologous to ethanol, a relationship between the inhibition constant and the inhibiting alcohol's pKa can be derived to show that the pKa of an alcohol bound in a ternary complex is also dependent on its pKa as a free alcohol. Ternary complex pKa values have been determined for ethanol and the inhibiting alcohols.

The effect of epinephrine on ethanol metabolism was determined in isolated rat hepatocytes. Epinephrine (10 microM) enhanced an initial rapid rate of ethanol elimination observed in the first 5 min. Thereafter, between 5 and 90 min, the rate of ethanol elimination was slower and not affected by epinephrine. Epinephrine resulted in higher acetaldehyde concentrations at 2 min, but not thereafter. Acetaldehyde production in the presence and absence of epinephrine was inhibited by 4-methylpyrazole, by a low free extracellular calcium concentration, and by the alpha 1-adrenergic blocker prazosin. Ethanol alone and epinephrine alone increased oxygen consumption, but the effects were not additive. The ethanol-induced decreases in the cytosolic NAD-/NADH and NADP++NADPH ratios and in the mitochondrial NAD+/NADH ratio were delayed by the presence of epinephrine. An accelerated initial alcohol dehydrogenase activity sufficient to account for the rapid initial rate of ethanol elimination shown with epinephrine was demonstrated by coupling ethanol oxidation with lactaldehyde reduction, a system which increases the rate of dissociation of NADH from the enzyme and its oxidation back to NAD+. The findings in this study indicate that an increased reoxidation of NADH during ethanol oxidation by alcohol dehydrogenase is the basis for the rapid transient increase in ethanol elimination produced by epinephrine.
