The regulation of lactate dehydrogenase in Bacillus subtilis was determined under a variety of growth conditions and in mutants blocked in the citric acid cycle. The synthesis of lactate dehydrogenase increased sharply concomitantly upon the exhaustion of glucose from the medium and the onset of the stationary phase. The synthesis of lactate dehydrogenase may be under catabolite repression control. Studies with mutants blocked in the citric acid cycle showed that lactate dehydrogenase is regulated independently of either the oxidative or reductase branches of the cycle. Certain citric acid cycle mutants, e.g., aconitase or succinate dehydrogenase, exhibited very low levels of lactate dehydrogenase while others, e.g., malate dehydrogenase or isocitrate dehydrogenase, showed normal levels. A stage O sporulation mutant expressed levels of lactate dehydrogenase more than one thousand-fold higher than the low group of citric acid cycle mutants. The induction of lactate dehydrogenase was shown to be independent of the accumulation of its substrate, pyruvate.

In several Escherichia coli K-12 strains grown on a limiting concentration of glucose, isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) was inactivated about 90% after cessation of growth upon exhaustion of the glucose. Such inactivation has been previously observed in several E. coli strains but not in E. coli K-12 (unless acetate was added to the bacterial culture when growth ceased). IDH was inactivated 75 to 80% in all E. coli K-12 strains we examined during growth on acetate. The inactivation involved phosphorylation of the enzyme and is considered to be a regulatory mechanism facilitating metabolite flow along the glyoxylate shunt. Phospho-IDH interacted with antibodies to enzymatically active IDH. We have devised a method, based on this immunological cross-reaction, for determining the proportions of active and inactive (phospho-) IDH in cell extracts.

Clinical and biochemical findings in skeletal muscle in 11 patients with chronic fatigue myalgia syndromes of unknown aetiology are reported. All patients had severe asthenia for from one to 10 years with greatly limited exercise capacity and protracted exhaustion after minor exercise. Diffuse myalgia was prominent and was exacerbated for hours to days after exercise. Assay of skeletal muscle carnitine, phosphorylase, all glycolytic enzymes and the mitochondrial marker enzymes monoamine oxidase, isocitrate dehydrogenase and cytochrome oxidase were normal. These findings lend no support to the presence of a major defect in muscle intermediary energy pathways in this syndrome.

When strain C3 of Klebsiella pneumoniae is grown on a minimal medium with excess glucose, isocitrate dehydrogenase, malate dehydrogenase, and succinate dehydrogenase specific activities increase in the last period of the exponential growth phase and in the beginning of the stationary phase. Glucose exhaustion does not alter the development of malate dehydrogenase and succinate dehydrogenase, but specific activities are higher than those obtained with excess glucose. In contrast, glucose exhaustion can be correlated with a decrease of isocitrate dehydrogenase specific activity in the stationary phase. Induction of strain C3 isocitrate dehydrogenase by glucose in complex medium and repression by cAMP in mineral medium were observed. Glucose induction and the NADP/NADPH ratio are suggested as regulatory mechanisms controlling isocitrate dehydrogenase synthesis in the Enterobacteriaceae, but the former appears to be restricted to some Klebsiella strains.

Variations of intracellular concentrations of isocitrate and NADP+ were measured throughout all growth phases of the marine bacterium Pseudomonas nautica. The intracellular isocitrate concentration tracked the intracellular protein concentration throughout all phases of growth. It rapidly increased in early exponential phase to a maximum and fell to nearly zero in parallel with pyruvate exhaustion in the culture medium. The intracellular NADP+ and protein concentrations increased in parallel during the exponential phase but were poorly correlated. Even after carbon exhaustion, the intracellular NADP+ concentration stayed high, as did protein levels. The results demonstrated that the intracellular isocitrate concentration, but not the intracellular NADP+ concentration, was affected by the carbon availability in the culture. They also suggest that, because of its variability, isocitrate, but not NADP+, plays the larger role in the control of the respiratory CO2 production rate (RCO2). From initial rate studies, bisubstrate Michaelis constants and the dissociation constant were determined for NADP+-specific isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) from P. nautica. These studies support the hypothesis that the mechanism of IDH's activity involves the ordered addition of the substrates, D-isocitrate and NADP+. Furthermore, the results support the use of a bisubstrate enzyme kinetic equation to model RCO2 in P. nautica.

The hypothesis is advanced that NADP(+)-malic enzyme (ME; EC 1.1.1.40) is an important activity in regulating the extent of lipid accumulation in filamentous fungi. In Mucor circinelloides, a fungus capable of accumulating only 25% (w/w, dry wt) lipid, even under the most propitious conditions, ME disappears 15-20 h after nitrogen exhaustion, coincident with the cessation of lipid accumulation. In contrast, ME in Mortierella alpina, a fungus capable of accumulating 50% (w/w, dry wt) lipid, remains active for over 60 h after N-exhaustion during which time lipid accumulation continues. No other enzyme activity studied, including the lipogenic enzymes acetyl-CoA carboxylase, fatty acid synthase, diacyglycerol acyltransferase, ATP: citrate lyase and the NADPH-generating enzymes glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase and NADP+:isocitrate dehydrogenase, demonstrated any correlation with the accumulation of storage lipid in either fungus. Full activity of ME is restored in Mr. circinelloides within 4 h by adding NH4+ to the cultures, but this is prevented by adding cycloheximide as an inhibitor of protein synthesis. This suggests that the decrease in ME activity occurs due to down-regulation of the ME gene.

We investigated oxidative processes in mitochondria of Saccharomyces cerevisiae grown on ethanol in the course of chronological aging. We elaborated a model of chronological aging that avoids the influence of exhaustion of medium, as well as the accumulation of toxic metabolites during aging. A decrease in total respiration of cells and, even more, of the contribution of respiration coupled with ATP-synthesis was observed during aging. Aging is also related with the decrease of the contribution of malonate-insensitive respiration. Activities of citrate-synthase (CS), alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase (KGDH) and malate dehydrogenase (MDH) were threefold decreased. The activity of NADP-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase (NADP-ICDH) decreased more significantly, while the activity of NAD-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase (NAD-ICDH) fell even greater, being completely inactivated on the third week of aging. In contrast, succinate dehydrogenase (SDH), enzymes of glyoxylate cycle (GCL) (isocitrate lyase (ICL) and malate synthase (MLS)), and enzymes of ethanol oxidation (alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) and acetaldehyde dehydrogenase (ACDH)), were activated by 50% or more. The behavior of oxidative enzymes and metabolic pathways are apparently inherent to a more viable, long-lived cells in population, selected in the course of chronological aging. This selection allows cells to reveal the mechanism of their higher viability as caused by shunting of complete Krebs cycle by glyoxylate cycle, with a concomitant increased rate of the most efficient energy source, namely succinate formation and oxidation. Thiobarbituric-reactive species (TAR species) increased during aging. We supposed that to be the immediate cause of damage of a part of yeast population. These data show that a greater succinate contribution to respiration in more active cells is a general property of yeast and animal tissues.

Mn is of toxicological concern because overexposure can lead to progressive, permanent neurodegenerative damage. Monomethyl-Mn-pentadienyl-tricarbonyl (MMT) is used as an anti-knock agent in fuel. Exhausted Mn compounds are absorbed in the lung and transported to the liver. Extended exposure causes an overflow of the liver with Mn species moving e.g. to the brain, causing irreversible central nervous system (CNS) disorders like Manganism. This paper focuses on experiments for getting more information on Mn species in liver extracts. The investigations are performed with respect to (1) a size characterization and (2) a subsequent identification of the Mn species in liver extracts using preparative size exclusion chromatography (SEC) followed by capillary zone electrophoresis coupled to inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (CZE-ICP-MS). First, extracts were analyzed using a mass calibrated SEC column coupled to ICP-MS detection. The chromatogram showed the 55 Mn-trace and proved main Mn elution between ca. 60-150 kDa. Second, liver extracts were fractionated on the same SEC column, however, now the effluent was directed to a fraction collector. This resulted in fractions containing pre-purified, size characterized Mn species per fraction. It turned out that the Mn concentrations per fraction reflected roughly the previous on-line Mn trace. Third, the fractions were subject to CZE-ICP-MS, where the MS was operated additionally with dynamic reaction cell (DRC) technique. From size characterization (with SEC coupled on-line to ICP-MS or connected to a fraction collector and subsequent Mn determination in fractions) it was shown that most Mn species from liver extract were of high molecular mass (HMM) nature as they eluted mostly between 50 and 80 min, corresponding to ca. 60-150 kDa. With the two-dimensional speciation approach employing first SEC and then CZE-ICP-DRC-MS together with standard addition method, a series of Mn species was identified. Mn species predominantly were Mn-enzymes e.g. arginase, isocitric dehydrogenase, galactosyltransferase, prolidase, pyruvate carboxylase and oxalate oxidase. A typical Mn-transporter--Mn-albumin-- was also seen, whilst Mn-transferrin obviously was degraded during SEC separation. This Mn-compound (independent whether as a standard or from liver extract) was not stable during SEC even at the finally chosen physiological conditions.

Two common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) genotypes differing in aluminum (Al) resistance, Quimbaya (Al-resistant) and VAX-1 (Al-sensitive) were grown in hydroponics for up to 25 h with or without Al, and several parameters related to the exudation of organic acids anions from the root apex were investigated. Al treatment enhanced the exudation of citrate from the root tips of both genotypes. However, its dynamic offers the most consistent relationship between Al-induced inhibition of root elongation and Al accumulation in and exclusion from the root apices. Initially, in both genotypes the short-term (4 h) Al-injury period was characterized by the absence of citrate efflux independent of the citrate content of the root apices, and reduction of cytosolic turnover of citrate conferred by a reduced Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate-isocitrate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.42) activity. Transient recovery from initial Al stress (4-12 h) was found to be dependent mainly on the capacity to utilize internal citrate pools (Al-resistant genotype Quimbaya) or enhanced citrate synthesis [increased activities of NAD-malate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.37) and ATP-phosphofructokinase (EC 2.7.1.11) in Al-sensitive VAX-1]. Sustained recovery from Al stress through citrate exudation in genotype Quimbaya after 24 h Al treatment relied on restoring the internal citrate pool and the constitutive high activity of citrate synthase (CS) (EC 4.1.3.7) fuelled by high phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (EC 4.1.1.31) activity. In the Al-sensitive genotype VAX-1 the citrate exudation and thus Al exclusion and root elongation could not be maintained coinciding with an exhaustion of the internal citrate pool and decreased CS activity.

DHA production by Schizochytrium sp. S31 was studied in batch cultures on glycerol with stepwise dissolved oxygen strategy. Three growth stages were identified as cell growth, lipid accumulation and lipid turnover. It was revealed that fatty acid (FA) shifts during the three growth stages involved the activity changes of glycerol kinase (GK), FAD(+)-dependent glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (FAD(+)-G-3-PDH), malic enzyme (ME), ATP citrate lyase (ACL) and NAD(+)-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase (NAD(+)-ICDH). Glycerol dissimilation in Schizochytrium sp. S31 was suggested via a phosphorylation by GK and a following oxidation by FAD(+)-G-3-PDH. Lipid accumulation of this strain was a growth-associated process, but the assimilable nitrogen depletion enhanced the accumulation of lipids. The exhaustion of glycerol induced the lipid turnover stage, where the short chain fatty acids were preferentially degraded and converted into lipid-free biomass (Xf) which was correlated to the increase of DHA content in biomass.
