The interaction of NADH with s-malate dehydrogenase isolated from beef heart was studied in 20 mM potassium phosphate (pH 6.9)-1 mM EDTA, with forced dialysis, fluorescence, and temperature-jump techniques. Measurements of the change in fluorescence of NADH when it is titrated with enzyme indicate NADH bound to monomeric and dimeric enzyme have different fluorescence yields. These data and the results of direct binding studies can be explained in terms of a model in which the NADH binding sites on dimeric enzyme are equivalent or nearly equivalent, and NADH binding to monomeric enzyme occurs with an affinity very similar to that of the dimer. However, the fluorescence enhancement of NADH on binding to the enzyme is different for the monomer and for each of the two dimer sites.

The histochemistry of the hepatic parenchymal cells was studied in four Callithrix jacchus. A large amount of glycogen was noted throughout the lobules while the UDPG-GT and the phosphorylases were found unevenly distributed by the hepatic strands with different degrees of reactivity. Near the central vein one of the livers showed PAS-positive nuclear corpuscles that were more conspicuous in the hepatic cells with a larger amount of cytoplasmic glycogen and weaker UDPG-GT and phosphorylase reactivities. G-6PA (in a larger amount) and LDH (in a moderate amount) were found evenly distributed in the hepatic strands. F-1-6PA was seen sometimes with a stronger reactivity at the peripheral part of the lobules. The enzymes of the pentose shunt (G-6PDH, 6-PGDH and NADPH-2-TR) reacted strongly and as a rule evenly distributed near the hepatic lobules. Occasionally they reacted more intensely in the row of hepatic cells disposed just around the central vein. Cytochrome oxidase showed a very faint reaction. Cis-aconitase and ICDH were weak or moderate. NADH-2-TR more than SDH more than MDH were seen frequently diffused near the hepatic strands. SDH and MDH in some instances showed a stronger reactivity in the row or group of hepatic cells around the central vein. ATPase at pH 6.3 was negative in the marmoset liver; ATPase at pH 7.4 was mainly found in the wall of the portal area vessels; ATPase at pH 8.5 showed a stronger reactivity in the cytoplasm of the hepatic cells and ATPase at pH 9.4 was more abundant in the bile capillaries. The reactivity of the lipid metabolism enzymes was moderate with regard to alpha-GPDH or negligible with regard to beta-OHBDH. Acid phosphatase showed a stronger reaction, but almost limited to the Kupffer cells. The hepatic cells showed only a moderate amount of RNA. Some enzymes of the protein metabolism, such as GDH and leucine aminopeptidase showed a stronger reactivity while some others, such as alanyl aminopeptidase and MAO, were seen diffused near the hepatic lobules in a small amount. Enzymes of the mucopolysaccharide metabolism were not found at all (beta-glucuronidase) or showed only a weak reactivity, such as xylitol dehydrogenase.

Mitochondrial malate dehydrogenase (L-malate : NAD-+ oxido-reductase, EC 1.1.1.37) was inhibited by potassium tetrachloro platinum (II), K-2PtCl-4, in the presence of varying concentrations of NADH, NAD-+ and L-malate and mixtures of NAD-+ and L-malate. It was observed that NADH is an effective protector of the enzyme from inhibition while both NAD-+ and L-malate are poor protectors. Spectral studies have suggested that the protection afforded by the substrates are accomplished by reaction with specific groups on the enzyme rather than by complexation of the substrates with PtCl-4-2-minus. From the above data it has been concluded that the tetrachloroplatinate ion binds only at the active site and that this site which is effectively protected by NADH, and moderately protected by a NAD-+-L-malate complex probably contains one or more sulfur containing amino acid side chains. It is also proposed that when the tetrachloroplatinate complexes with the enzyme there is some effect, possibly a conformational change, which causes the release of NADH at the allosteric site.

Supernatant malate dehydrogenase from pig heart, a dimeric protein containing two very similar or identical subunits, shows negatively cooperative (anticooperative) interactions between NADH binding sites in the presence, but not in the absence, of 0.1 M L-malate. This behavior is observed consitently whether the technique used employs protein fluorescence quenching, NADH fluorescence enhancement, or ultrafiltration dialysis. Fluorescence titration shows that L-malate is also anticooperatively bound in the presence of saturating concentrations of NADH. The data are consistent with an "induced asymmetry" model in which conformational change accompanies the formation of the ternary complex. Two of the three chromatographically resolvable forms of the enzyme have been tested and found to have anticooperative behavior.

The macrolide-type antibiotic chlorothricin was found to inhibit both the mitochondrial and the cytoplasmic form of pig heart malate dehydrogenase. Steady-state kinetic measurements revealed that in the direction of oxalacetate reduction chlorothricin is competitive with respect to NADH and non-competitive with respect to oxalacetate. Both the variation of initial velocity with NADH concentration in the presence of antibiotic, and, at several fixed levels of NADH, the variation of initial velocity with chlorothricin concentration deviates from the classical Michaelis-Menten relationship for the two isoenzymes. Since, despite the very similar kinetic behaviour of the mitochondrial and cytoplasmic species of malate dehydrogenase, the concentration of chlorothricin required for half-maximal inhibition of the two enzymes differs by more than a factor of 10 (the mitochondrial isoenzyme being more susceptible to inhibition), it is concluded that the NADH binding sites of the mitochondrial and cytoplasmic form of malate dehydrogenase from pig heart are different.

The effect of temperature on the activation energies of mitochondrial enzymes of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae was examined. Non-linear Arrhenius plots with discontinuities in the temperature range 14-19 degrees C and 19-22 degrees C were observed for the respiratory enzymes and mitochondrial ATPase (adenosine triphosphatase) respectively. A straight-line Arrhenius plot was observed for the matrix enzyme, malate dehydrogenase. The activation energies of the enzymes associated with succinate oxidation, namely, succinate oxidase, succinate dehydrogenase and succinate-cytochrome c oxidoreductase, were in the range 60-85kJ/mol above the transition temperature and 90-160kJ/mol below the transition temperature. In contrast, the corresponding enzymes associated with NADH oxidation showed significantly lower activation energies, 20-35kJ/mol above and 40-85kJ/mol below the transition temperature. The discontinuities in the Arrhenius plots were still observed after sonication, treatment with non-ionic detergents or freezing and thawing of the mitochondrial membranes. Discontinuities for cytochrome c oxidase activity were only observed in freshly isolated mitochondria, and no distinct breaks were observed after storage at -20 degrees C. Mitochondrial ATPase activity still showed discontinuities after sonication and freezing and thawing, but a linear plot was observed after treatment with non-ionic detergents. The results indicate that the various enzymes of the respiratory chain are located in a similar lipid macroenvironment within the mitochondrial membrane.

As it was shown previoulsy by others, the membrane-bound phosphodiesterase (cyclic adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate phosphodiesterase) of rat epididymal fat cells was stimulated when intact cells were exposed to insulin. The levels of stimulation observed in the present study in the cell homogenate and microsomal fraction were approximately 2.0- to 2.5-fold and 2.5- to 3.0-fold, respectively, when the initial substrate level was 100 nM and insulin concentration was 1 to 3 nM. When the microsomal fraction was subjected to a sucrose density gradient centrifugation, most of the insulin-sensitive phosphodiesterase activity was fractionated into the "light" microsomal fraction which was rich in NADH2:potassium ferricyanide:oxidoreductase) and low in 5'-AMPase, adenylate cyclase, and insulin-binding activities. The latter three activities were mostly fractionated into the "heavy" microsomal fraction. Both basal and insulin-stimulated phosphodiesterase activities were low when cells were homogenized in the presence of N-ethylmaleimide or p-chloromercuribenzoate. The insulin-stimulated enzyme activity was also low when cells were homogenized in the presence of --SH compounds (e.g. dithiothreitol) or certain metal-chelating agents (e.g. ethylene glycol bis(beta-aminoethyl ehter)-N,N'-tetraacetate (EGTA)), or in a nitrogen atmosphere. The effect of EGTA was prevented by the addition of certain heavy metal ions but not by the addition of Ca2+ or Ca2+ plus Mg2+ ions. When cells were homogenized in the presence of certain oxidants (e.g. diamide, sodium tetrathionate, or air), a high plus-insulin activity was observed; this activity was not lowered by subsequent treatment of the enzyme with N-ethylmaleimede, EGTA, or fresh cell homogenate that was prepared in the presence of EGTA. However, the activity of an apparently oxidized enzyme could still be lowered by treatment woth dithiothreitol. A partially purified enzyme in the enzyme in the microsomal fraction was fairly stable both in basal and insulin-stimulated states (fully active after 35 days when kept at -20degrees). EGTA added to the homogenization buffer lowered the basal phosphodiesterase activity, but this effect was reversed by the addition of Ca2+ ions. EGTA also decreased the enzyme activity that was stimulated by norepinephrine. However, neither EGTA nor dithiothreitol had any effect on the activities of 5'-AMPase, NADH-dehydrogenase, and malate dehydrogenase of fat cells. The above data indicate that most of the insulin-sensitive phosphodiesterase and the so-called "cell membrane markers" are associated with different subcellular particles in the cell homogenate. In addition, the data seem to indicate that the insulin-stimulated phosphodiesterase has certain --SH groups and that the activity of the enzyme is stabilized when the --SH groups are oxidized by certain oxidants including molecular oxygen. It is suggested that the air oxidation of the enzyme is catalyzed by a trace of certain heavy metal ions and, therefore, can be blocked by a metal-chelating agent.

The reversible inactivation of porcine heart mitochondrial malate dehydrogenase by pyridoxal 5'-phosphate yields an irreversible modification upon sodium borohydride reduction. A 200-fold molar excess of pyridoxal-5'-P over enzyme results in inactivation to the extent of 54%, and incorporation of 5.7 mol of inactivator per mol of enzyme. The same inactivation carried out in the presence of 80 mM coenzyme, NADH, produces malate dehydrogenase which is approximately 94% active and contains 4.6 mol of pyridoxal-5'-P per mol of enzyme. The incorporation difference between inactivated and protected samples suggests, for total inactivation, the modification of 2 residues per mol of enzyme (i.e. 1 residue per subunit, or 1 per enzymatic active site). This specificity was confirmed by the isolation of a single pyridoxyl-5'-P-labeled "difference peptide" obtained by comparison of the Dowex 1-X2 elution profiles of tryptic digests of protected and inactivated samples, respectively. Amino acid analysis of the peptide demonstrated the presence of N6-pyridoxyl-L-lysine (Lys(Pyx)), establishing the existence of an essential lysing residue in the active center of malate dehydrogenase. The amino acid sequence of the active center hexapeptide has been determined to be: H2NLys(Pyx)Pro-Gly-Met-Thr-Arg-COOH.

1. Pig heart mitochondrial malate dehydrogenase incubated with pyridoxal 5'-phosphate at pH 8.0 and 25 degrees C gradually loses activity. Such inactivation can be largely reversed by dialysis or by addition of L-lysine or L-cysteine, and can be made permanent by NaBH4 reduction. 2. Modification of malate dehydrogenase with pyridoxal 5'-phosphate at 35 degrees C involves two phases, an initial inactivation which is reversible and a slower irreversible second stage. 3. The initial reaction between pyridoxal 5'-phosphate and malate dehydrogenase appears to involve reversible formation of a Schiff base with the epsilon-amino group of a lysine residue. 4. Inactivation of malate dehydrogenase by pyridoxal 5'-phosphate at 10 degrees C involves only the reversible reaction. 5. At 10 degrees C repeated cycles of treatment with pyridoxal 5'-phosphate and NaBH4 reduction lead to a stepwise decline in residual activity. 6. Apparent Km values for malate and NAD+ are unaltered in the partially inactivated enzyme. 7. NAD+ and NADH give only partial protection against pyridoxal 5'-phosphate inactivation. Substrates give no effect.

The oxidation of formaldehyde by rat liver mitochondria in the presence of 50 mM phosphate was enhanced 2-fold by exogenous NAD+. Absolute requirement of NAD+ for formaldehyde oxidation was demonstrated by depleting the mitochondria of their NAD+ content (4.6 nmol/mg of protein), followed by reincorporation of the NAD+ into the depleted mitochondria. Aldehyde (formaldehyde) dehydrogenase activity was completely abolished in the depleted mitochondria, but the enzyme activity was restored to control levels following reincorporation of the pyridine nucleotide. Phosphate stimulation of formaldehyde oxidation could not be explained fully by the phosphate-induced swelling which enhances membrane permeability to NAD+, since stimulation of the enzyme activity by increased phosphate concentrations was still observed in the absence of exogenous NAD+. The Km for formaldehyde oxidation by the mitochondria was found to be 0.38 nM, a value similar to that obtained with varying concentrations of NAD+; both Vmax values were very similar, giving a value of 70 to 80 nmol/min/mg of protein. The pH optimum for the mitochondrial enzyme was 8.0. Inhibition of the enzyme activity by anaerobiosis was apparently due to the inability of the respiratory chain to oxidize the generated NADH. The inhibition of mitochondrial formaldehyde oxidation by succinate was found to be due to a lowering of the NAD+ level in the mitochondria. Succinate also inhibited acetaldehyde oxidation by the mitochondria. Malonate, a competitive inhibitor of succinic dehydrogenase, blocked the inhibitory effect of succinate. The respiratory chain inhibitors, rotenone, and antimycin A plus succinate, strongly inhibited formaldehyde oxidation by apparently the same mechanism, although the crude enzyme preparation (freed from the membrane) was slightly sensitive to rotenone. The mitochondria were subfractionated, and 85% of the enzyme activity was found in the inner membrane fraction (mitoplast). Furthermore, separation into inner membrane and matrix components indicated a distribution of aldehyde dehydrogenase activity similar to malic dehydrogenase.
