The oxidative decarboxylation of D-isocitrate catalyzed by NADP-linked isocitrate dehydrogenase is activated by NADPH, the product of the reaction. We analyzed the autocatalytic behavior exhibited by the enzyme during the steady-state kinetics. NADP acts as a competitive inhibitor toward NADPH in the catalytic activation. In a large concentration range of the reduced and oxidized coenzymes, the activity of the enzyme is proportional to the ratio (NADPH)/(NADP). The results are compared with the results of experiments done with other NADP-linked decarboxylating dehydrogenases. Two different models are presented in order to explain the mechanism of action of isocitrate dehydrogenase, according to our data.

The NADP+-specific isocitrate dehydrogenase (threo-DS-isocitrate:NADP+ oxidoreductase (decarboxylating), EC 1.1.1.42) of Excherichia coli has been purified to electrophoretic homogeneity by a two-step purification procedure employing affinity chromatography. The overall yield of enzyme was 30% with specific activity 125 mumol/min per ng protein. Electrophoretic homogeneity of the isocitrate dehydrogenase was deterimed in analytical polyacrylamide gels in a Tris/acetate/EDTA buffer system at pH 7.5 and in a citrate/phosphate buffer system at pH 6.0.

Oxalacetate and glyoxylate are each weak inhibitors of NADP+-specific isocitrate dehydrogenase (threo-DS-isocitrate:NADP+ oxidoreductase (decarboxylating), EC 1.1.1.42)9 Together, however, they act in a concerted manner and strongly inhibit the enzyme. The rates of formation and dissociation of the enzyme inhibitor complex, and the rate of formation and the stability of the aldol condensation product of oxalacetate and glyoxylate, oxalomalate, were examined. The data obtained do not support the often suggested possibility that oxalomalate, per se, formed non-enzymatically in isocitrate dehydrogenase assay mixtures containing oxalacetate and glyoxylate, is responsible for the observed inhibition of the enzyme. Rather, the data presented in this communication suggest that oxalacetate binds to the enzyme first, and that the subsequent binding of glyoxylate leads to the formation of a catalytically inactive enzyme-inhibitor complex.

NADP-linked dehydrogenases, glucose-6-P dehydrogenase (G 6PDH) 6-P gluconate dehydrogenase (6 PGDH), isocitrate dehydrogenase (ICDH), malate dehydrogenase decarboxylating (ME) and aminotransferases GOT and GPT were analyzed in the soluble fraction of blood free homogenates. Glutmate dehydrogenase (GDH) was assayed in the mitochondrial fraction. TAM was i.p. administered to male albino rats (50 mg/kg/day) for 28 days. enzyme activities were determined as described by Bermeyer 1965 (Methods Enzymatic Analysis. Verlag Chemie. Acad. Press).

The NAD-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase [threo-D(S)-isocitrate:NAD(+) oxidoreductase (decarboxylating); EC 1.1.1.41] from pig heart is a multisubunit enzyme with a molecular weight of approximately 340,000. Electrophoresis of the enzyme in 10% polyacrylamide gels containing sodium dodecyl sulfate reveals two discrete bands with molecular weights of 41,000 and 39,000. The two bands exhibit approximately equal intensity when stained with Coomassie Blue, Amido Black, and Bromophenol Blue, suggesting that these polypeptide chains are present in equimolar quantities in the native enzyme. The same two-band pattern is observed when the sulfhydryl groups of the enzyme are blocked by alkylation with iodoacetate prior to electrophoresis, indicating that sulfhydryl oxidation is not responsible for the observed heterogeneity. Each of the subunits appears as a single band when eluted from the gel and again subjected to electrophoresis under the same conditions. Isocitrate dehydrogenase contains a total of 41 lysine and arginine residues per average subunit of 40,000 daltons. The observation of approximately 80 peptides upon paper chromatography and high voltage electrophoresis of tryptic digests of the enzyme is consistent with the existence of two distinct polypeptide chains. Dansylation yields two NH(2)-terminal amino acid derivatives: dansyl-phenylalanine and dansyl-alanine. It is concluded that the NAD-specific isocitrate dehydrogenase is composed of equal numbers of two nonidentical subunits.

The segmentation of the proximal tubules in the kidney of the female rat was studied by means of enzyme histochemical reactions and the results compared with those observed in male and recently described by Jacobsen and J0rgensen (1973 a). Reactions were performed for the following soluble, coezyme-dependent oxido-reductases: glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase, alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase, 3 alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase, NAD-as well as NADP-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenases, NAD-dependent malate dehydrogenase, NADP-dependent, decarboxylating malate dehydrogenase, uridine diphosphate glucose dehydrogenase. Measures were taken to reduce enzyme diffusion and eliminate interference from tissue tetrazolium reductases. Furthermore, reactions were performed for a number of less soluble or insoluble enzymes: glucose 6-phosphatase, mitochondrial alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase, beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase, succinate dehydrogenase and tetrazolium reductases. In the proximal tubules of the female rat all enzymes studied--except beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase--showed segmental differences, most of them clearly revealing three segments. Sex differences were found concerning all enzymes except uridine diphosphate glucose dehydrogenase and NADP-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase. The most pronounced sex-related differences were seen in the third segment in which part the male rat showed highest activity in respect to tetrazolium reductases, NAD-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase, succinate dehydrogenase, beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase, 3 alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase and glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase and the female in respect to glucose 6-phosphatase, alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenases, and NADP-dependent, decarboxylating malate dehydrogenase. A few of the enzymes exhibited minor sex differences in the first two segments.

In order to obtain a quantitative estimate of the capacity of the pancreatic islets for provision of cytoplasmic acetyl-coenzyme A and for the turnover of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate and its reduced form (NADP+/NADPH), the following enzymes were assayed in islets taken from New Zealand Obese mice: adenosine triphosphate citrate lyase (EC 4.1.3.8), malate dehydrogenase (decarboxylating) (NADP+) (EC 1.1.1.40), glutathione reductase (EC 1.6.4.2) and isocitrate dehydrogenase (NADP+) (EC 1.1.1.42). In addition, the activity of isocitrate dehydrogenase (NAD+) (EC 1.1.1.41) was determined. For comparative purposes the activities in exocrine pancreas, liver, heart muscle, kidney cortex and skeletal muscle were also determined. Specimens of pancreatic islets and the other tissues were microdissected from freeze-dried sections. In comparison with the other tissues, adenosine triphosphate citrate lyase was particularly active in the islets. The NADP+/NAPH-converting enzymes had activities, which suggested a rapid turnover of the islet NADP+/NADPH pool.

In this communication the results of applying various histochemical semipermeable membrane techniques to the localization of several enzymes in bovine and porcine heart are presented. The Purkinje fibers of the atrioventricular conducting system of the bovine heart differ from the myocardium proper in containing a greater activity of the glycolytic and gluconeogenetic enzymes--lactate dehydrogenase, glyceraldehyde-phosphate dehydrogenase, hexokinase, glucosephosphate isomerase and phosphoglucomutase, and less activity of the aerobic enzymes--NADH: nitroBT oxidoreductase and isocitrate dehydrogenase (NADP+). The metabolic reactions obtained with Purkinje fibers of the porcine heart are less pronounced. These histochemical findings are in accordance with the impression that Purkinje fibers, compared with the common myocardial fibers, have a higher rate of anaerobic metabolism and a lower rate of aerobic metabolism. The activity of the NADPH regenerating enzymes glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (decarboxylating), and the activity of acid hydrolases such as non-specific esterase and acid phosphatase is higher in the Purkinje fibers of both the bovine and porcine heart.

In the presented study the influence of freezing and freeze-drying on enzyme activity is described. Attention is paid to 16 enzymes which can be used for quantitative enzyme histochemical techniques. With the exception of succinate dehydrogenase only, no significant inactivation during freezing and freeze-drying procedures could be demonstrated with lactate dehydrogenase, malate dehydrogenase (NAD+), malate dehydrogenase (decarboxylating) (NADP+), isocitrate dehydrogenase (NADP+), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase, NADH-oxydoreductase, mitochondrial glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, cytochrome c oxidase, phosphoglucomutase, glucosephosphate isomerase, glucose-6-phosphatase, acid phosphatase, beta-glucuronidase and non specific aryl esterase. Therefore, the results supply a sound foundation for those quantitative enzyme histochemical techniques in which tissue specimens are frozen or frozen-dried before enzyme estimations are performed.
