The intracellular distribution of enzymes of the TCA cycle was investigated in liver of rainbow trout. All enzymes of the cycle apart from succinyl thiokinase were detected. Citrate synthase, alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase and succinate dehydrogenase were wholly mitochondrial. Fumarase, malate dehydrogenase, aconitase and NADP-isocitrate dehydrogenase were detected in both cytosol and mitochondria.

Crude extracts of both vegetative cells and glycerol-induced microcysts of Myxococcus xanthus contained the following enzyme activities: phosphofructokinase, phosphoglucoisomerase, fructose-1,6-diphosphatase, fructosediphosphate aldolase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, phosphopyruvate carboxylase, citrate synthase, isocitrate dehydrogenase, alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase, succinate dehydrogenase, malate dehydrogenase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase, phosphoglucomutase, and uridine diphosphate glucose pyrophosphorylase. With the exception of isocitrate dehydrogenase, which was present at a fivefold higher concentration in microcysts, all activities in extracts from both types of cells were essentially equal. Hexokinase and pyruvate kinase could not be detected in extracts from either type of cell. Microcysts metabolized acetate at a lower rate than did vegetative cells. Most of this decrease was reflected in a substantial decrease in ability of microcysts to oxidize acetate to CO(2). In addition, microcysts and vegetative cells showed a different distribution of (14)C-label from incorporated acetate.

The specific activities of isocitric dehydrogenase, alpha-ketoglutaric dehydrogenase, succinic dehydrogenase, malic dehydrogenase, and reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) oxidase were determined in extracts of Nitrosomonas europaea and compared with the corresponding values for Anacystis nidulans and autotrophically grown Hydrogenomonas eutropha. In common with other obligate autotrophs and in contrast to facultative autotrophs, Nitrosomonas extracts lacked alpha-ketoglutaric dehydrogenase and KCN-sensitive NADH oxidase activity and had low succinic dehydrogenase activity. The Nitrosomonas NADH oxidase appeared to be of the peroxidase type.

By using the continuous culture technique, the transition from aerobiosis to anaerobiosis and its effect on a number of enzymes has been investigated in Escherichia coli K-12. A decrease in the oxygen partial pressure below 28.0 mm of Hg resulted firstly in an increase of the respiratory enzymes (reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide [NADH] oxidase, 2.53-fold; succinic dehydrogenase, 1.4-fold; cytochrome b(1), 3.91-fold; and cytochrome a(2), 2.45-fold) before the electron transport system gradually collapsed as cytochrome a(2), followed by cytochrome b(1), succinic dehydrogenase, and finally NADH oxidase decreased in activity. The change from respiration to fermentation was initiated well before the oxygen tension reached zero by the increase in levels of fructose diphosphate-aldolase, glucose 6-phosphate, and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenases and a decrease in 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase. Whem the dissolved oxygen tension reached zero, dry weight and CO(2) formation together with isocitrate dehydrogenase decreased, whereas acid production and phosphofructokinase synthesis started to increase. Enzymatic investigations revealed that the kinetics of the enzyme phosphofructokinase from strict aerobic cultures (6.9 ppm oxygen in solution) was adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-insensitive, whereas the same enzyme from anaerobic cultures was ATP-sensitive. A mechanism is proposed for the change from aerobiosis to anaerobiosis together with the occurring change in glucose regulation.

Sporulation mutants that were unable to incorporate uracil during the developmental period recovered this capacity with the addition of ribose and in most cases with the addition of glutamate. Of the mutants that responded to both ribose and glumate, all but three also responded to citrate, and all but five responded to acetate. One of the exceptional strains was deficient in aconitase and another one in aconitase and isocitrate dehydrogenase; both required glutamate for growth. For the mutants which did not respond to glutamate, the products made from (14)C-glutamate were determined by thin-layer chromatography. Significant differences were found which enabled the identification of mutant blocks. The deficiency of the corresponding enzyme activity was verified. Several mutants were deficient in alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase, and one lacked succinic dehydrogenase. These mutants could still grow on glucose as sole carbon source, but not on glutamate. The intact Krebs cycle is therefore not required for vegetative growth of aerobic Bacillis subtilis, but it is indispensable for sporulation.

The genetic location of mutations affecting the citric acid cycle and the properties of mutants of Bacillus subtilis possessing these mutations have been examined. Genes coding for the component enzymes of the cycle were found to be unlinked to each other and thus do not form an operon. The mutational defect in a mutant lacking fumarase mapped between thr-5 and cysB3. Mutations causing inability to produce isocitrate dehydrogenase and succinate dehydrogenase were found to map between argA11 and leu-1. The alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase mutations were mapped at the terminal end of the B. subtilis chromosome through a weak linkage in phage PBS-1 transduction of one class of these mutations of ilvA2 and metB4. A second class of alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase mutations mapped closer to ilvA2 and metB4 but still terminal with respect to these markers. Aconitaseless mutants possessed mutations that could not be linked to any of the known transducing segments of the chromosome. An effect of mutation conferring loss of one enzyme of the cycle on the specific activity of the other enzymes in the cycle was observed.

A technique was developed for the detection, on agar, of mutants of Bacillus subtilis that lacked a functional tricarboxylic acid cycle. Mutants devoid of detectable levels of aconitase, isocitric dehydrogenase, alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase, succinic dehydrogenase, fumarase, and malate dehydrogenase have been isolated and characterized. Several mutants with conditionally expressible lesions, including a mutant with a heat-sensitive citrate synthase, have also been isolated. All of the mutants examined express all the biochemical markers normally absent in early-stage sporulation mutants except elastase, and some of these mutants sporulated nearly as well as the prototroph.

1. Transient and steady-state changes caused by acetate utilization were studied in perfused rat heart. The transient period occupied 6min and steady-state changes were followed in a further 6min of perfusion. 2. In control perfusions glucose oxidation accounted for 75% of oxygen utilization; the remaining 25% was assumed to represent oxidation of glyceride fatty acids. With acetate in the steady state, acetate oxidation accounted for 80% of oxygen utilization, which increased by 20%; glucose oxidation was almost totally suppressed. The rate of tricarboxylate-cycle turnover increased by 67% with acetate perfusion. The net yield of ATP in the steady state was not altered by acetate. 3. Acetate oxidation increased muscle concentrations of acetyl-CoA, citrate, isocitrate, 2-oxoglutarate, glutamate, alanine, AMP and glucose 6-phosphate, and lowered those of CoA and aspartate; the concentrations of pyruvate, ATP and ADP showed no detectable change. The times for maximum changes were 1min, acetyl-CoA, CoA, alanine and AMP; 6min, citrate, isocitrate, glutamate and aspartate; 2-4min, 2-oxoglutarate. Malate concentration fell in the first minute and rose to a value somewhat greater than in the control by 6min. There was a transient and rapid rise in glucose 6-phosphate concentration in the first minute superimposed on the slower rise over 6min. 4. Acetate perfusion decreased the output of lactate, the muscle concentration of lactate and the [lactate]/[pyruvate] ratio in perfusion medium and muscle in the first minute; these returned to control values by 6min. 5. During the first minute acetate decreased oxygen consumption and lowered the net yield of ATP by 30% without any significant change in muscle ATP or ADP concentrations. 6. The specific radioactivities of cycle metabolites were measured during and after a 1min pulse of [1-(14)C]acetate delivered in the first and twelfth minutes of acetate perfusion. A model based on the known flow rates and concentrations of cycle metabolites was analysed by computer simulation. The model, which assumed single pools of cycle metabolites, fitted the data well with the inclusion of an isotope-exchange reaction between isocitrate and 2-oxoglutarate+bicarbonate. The exchange was verified by perfusions with [(14)C]bicarbonate. There was no evidence for isotope exchange between citrate and acetyl-CoA or between 2-oxoglutarate and malate. There was rapid isotope equilibration between 2-oxoglutarate and glutamate, but relatively poor isotope equilibration between malate and aspartate. 7. It is concluded that the citrate synthase reaction is displaced from equilibrium in rat heart, that isocitrate dehydrogenase and aconitate hydratase may approximate to equilibrium, that alanine aminotransferase is close to equilibrium, but that aspartate transamination is slow for reasons that have yet to be investigated. 8. The slow rise in citrate concentration as compared with the rapid rise in that of acetyl-CoA is attributed to the slow generation of oxaloacetate by aspartate aminotransferase. 9. It is proposed that the tricarboxylate cycle may operate as two spans: acetyl-CoA-->2-oxoglutarate, controlled by citrate synthase, and 2-oxoglutarate-->oxaloacetate, controlled by 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase; a scheme for cycle control during acetate oxidation is outlined. The initiating factors are considered to be changes in acetyl-CoA, CoA and AMP concentrations brought about by acetyl-CoA synthetase. 10. Evidence is presented for a transient inhibition of phosphofructokinase during the first minute of acetate perfusion that was not due to a rise in whole-tissue citrate concentration. The probable importance of metabolite compartmentation is stressed.

The levels of Krebs cycle, glyoxylate cycle, and certain other enzymes were measured in a wild-type strain and in seven groups of acetate-nonutilizing (acu) mutants of Neurospora crassa, both after growth on a medium containing sucrose and after a subsequent 6-hr incubation in a similar medium, containing acetate as the sole source of carbon. In the wild strain, incubation in acetate medium caused a rise in the levels of isocitrate lyase, malate synthase, phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase, acetyl-coenzyme A synthetase, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate-linked isocitrate dehydrogenase, citrate synthase, and fumarate hydratase. Isocitrate lyase activity was absent in acu-3 mutants; acu-5 mutants lacked acetyl-coenzyme A synthetase activity; and no oxoglutarate dehydrogenase activity (or only low levels) could be detected in acu-2 and acu-7 mutants. In acu-6 mutants, phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase activity was either very low or absent. No specific biochemical deficiencies could be attributed to the acu-1 and acu-4 mutations. The role of several of these enzymes during growth on acetate is discussed.

1. Aerobically grown yeast having a high activity of glyoxylate-cycle, citric acid-cycle and electron-transport enzymes was transferred to a medium containing 10% glucose. After a lag phase of 30min. the yeast grew exponentially with a mean generation time of 94min. 2. The enzymes malate dehydrogenase, isocitrate lyase, succinate-cytochrome c oxidoreductase and NADH-cytochrome c oxidoreductase lost 45%, 17%, 27% and 46% of their activity respectively during the lag phase. 3. When growth commenced pyruvate kinase, pyruvate decarboxylase, alcohol dehydrogenase, glutamate dehydrogenase (NADP(+)-linked) and NADPH-cytochrome c oxidoreductase increased in activity, whereas aconitase, isocitrate dehydrogenase (NAD(+)- and NADP(+)-linked), alpha-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase, fumarase, malate dehydrogenase, succinate-cytochrome c oxidoreductase, NADH-cytochrome c oxidoreductase, NADH oxidase, NADPH oxidase, cytochrome c oxidase, glutamate dehydrogenase (NAD(+)-linked), glutamate-oxaloacetate transaminase, isocitrate lyase and glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase decreased. 4. During the early stages of growth the loss of activity of aconitase, alpha-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase, fumarase and glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase could be accounted for by dilution by cell division. The lower rate of loss of activity of isocitrate dehydrogenase (NAD(+)- and NADP(+)-linked), glutamate dehydrogenase (NAD(+)-linked), glutamate-oxaloacetate transaminase, NADPH oxidase and cytochrome c oxidase implies their continued synthesis, whereas the higher rate of loss of activity of malate dehydrogenase, isocitrate lyase, succinate-cytochrome c oxidoreductase, NADH-cytochrome c oxidoreductase and NADH oxidase means that these enzymes were actively removed. 5. The mechanisms of selective removal of enzyme activity and the control of the residual metabolic pathways are discussed.
