Addition of acetate to a stationary phase culture of Escherichia coli in glycerol mineral salts medium containing phosphorus-32-labeled orthophosphate results in rapid loss of isocitrate dehydrogenase activity and concomitant incorporation of phosphorus-32 into the enzyme. This is the first example of protein phosphorylation in a bacterium in which the endogenous substrate for the protein kinase has been identified.

Two freshwater bacteria, a Pseudomonas sp. and a Spirillum sp., were grown in continuous culture under steady-state conditions in L-lactate-, succinate-, ammonium- or phosphate-limited media. In Pseudomonas sp., NAD-independent and NAD-dependent L-lactate dehydrogenases, aconitase, isocitrate dehydrogenase and glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase activities increased up to 10-fold as the dilution rate (D) was decreased from 0.5 to 0.02 h-1, regardless of whether the growth-limiting nutrient was carbon, ammonium or phosphate. In contrast, 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase and succinate dehydrogenase activities were not influenced by D, and NADH oxidase activity increased with D. Spirillum sp. gave different results in some respects, but it also exhibited an increase in the activity of several enzymes at low D values. Such increases may emanate from release of catabolite repression, and catabolite repressors for the five enzymes in Pseudomonas sp. showing such increases are probably compounds of carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus. It is likely that increased enzyme syntheses in low D cultures represent the normal physiological state for bacteria in aquatic environments where growth occurs slowly under nutrient limitations. Such increases probably permit a more effective utilization of nutrients present at sub-saturating concentrations.

The investigation of Krebs cycle state in kidney homogenates of August rats subjected to oral intoxication with oil solution of yellow phosphorus in a dose of 0.3 mg/kg, has shown that under conditions of balanced nutrition the activity of NAD-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase, succinate dehydrogenase and accumulation of the substrate fund of the cycle decreased 3.5-fold as compared to the control. The addition of polyunsaturated fatty acids to the ration produced a positive effect on Krebs cycle state: dehydrogenase activity was not significantly changed, accumulation of Krebs cycle substrate was two-fold lower. However, this ration did not completely abolish the toxic action of yellow phosphorus on Krebs cycle.

Changes in energy metabolism during larval development in Caenorhabditis elegans have been investigated using phosphorus nuclear magnetic resonance (31P NMR). The relative concentrations of ATP, ADP, AMP, sugar phosphates, and other metabolites were observed to change during larval development, producing stage-specific spectra. These spectra are consistent with enzyme assays for isocitrate dehydrogenase and isocitrate lyase, indicating that high activity of the glyoxylate pathway during embryonic development decreases during the first larval (L1) stage, and respiration during the L2, L3, and L4 stages occurs preferentially through the TCA cycle. Metabolic strategies were further studied using mutants that are predisposed to enter the dauer stage, a developmentally arrested third-stage larva formed under conditions of overcrowding and limited food. After the L1 molt, energy metabolism in animals destined to become dauer larvae diverges from that of animals committed to growth. Relative to the L1, the L2 larvae committed to growth exhibit increased isocitrate dehydrogenase activity as well as increases in ATP and other high-energy phosphates, but predauer (L2d) larvae exhibit declining enzyme activities and declining levels of high-energy phosphates. The predominant phosphorus NMR signal in dauer larva extracts corresponds to inorganic phosphate. We conclude that metabolism is regulated during C. elegans larval development, with a major transition apparent after the L1 stage. This transition does not occur in larvae destined to form dauer larvae.

Two new reactive adenine nucleotide analogues have been synthesized and characterized: 2-[(4-bromo-2,3-dioxobutyl)thio]adenosine 2',5'-bisphosphate (2-BDB-TA-2',5'-DP) and 2-[(3-bromo-2-oxopropyl)thio]adenosine 2',5'-bisphosphate (2-BOP-TA-2',5'-DP). Starting with NADP+, 2'-phospho-adenosine 5'-(diphosphoribose) (PADPR) was generated enzymatically and was converted to PADPR 1-oxide by reaction with m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid. Treatment with NaOH followed by reaction with carbon disulfide yielded 2-thioadenosine 2',5'-bisphosphate (TA-2',5'-DP). Condensation of TA-2',5'-DP with 1,4-dibromobutanedione or 1,3-dibromo-2-propanone gave the final products 2-BDB-TA-2',5'-DP and 2-BOP-TA-2',5'-DP, respectively. The structure of these new reagents was determined by UV, 1H NMR, 31P NMR, and 13C NMR spectroscopy as well as by bromide and phosphorus analysis. Both of these reagents exhibit properties expected for an affinity label of the coenzyme site of NADP+-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase. With both reagents, biphasic kinetics of inactivation are observed that can be described in terms of a fast initial phase of inactivation resulting in partially active enzyme of 6-7% residual activity, followed by a slower phase leading to total inactivation. The inactivation rate constants for both reagents exhibit a nonlinear dependence on reagent concentration, consistent with the formation of a reversible complex with the enzyme prior to irreversible modification. The enzyme incorporates both reagents to a limited extent and is protected against inactivation by NADP+ and NADPH. The reaction of these new nucleotide analogues with isocitrate dehydrogenase is compared to the much slower inactivation caused by bromoacetone, indicating the importance of the nucleotide moiety in the functioning of the affinity labels. It is likely that 2-BDB-TA-2',5'-DP and 2-BOP-TA-2',5'-DP will have general applicability as affinity labels for other NADP+ binding enzymes.

1. Activities of glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.49), 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.44), isocitrate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.42), malate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.37), malate dehydrogenase (decarboxylating) (EC 1.1.1.40), and pyruvate carboxylase (EC 6.4.1.1) were determined in subcellular fractions of mammary gland from rabbits during pregnancy, at different stages of lactation and during weaning. The results were compared with those obtained in similar experiments with rat mammary gland. 2. Three bases of expression of the activity of enzymes in the particle-free supernatant fraction of mammary gland were compared. During lactation, activity expressed per mg. of particle-free supernatant protein (uncorrected for milk protein) correlated well with that expressed per mug. of DNA phosphorus. The disadvantages of expressing activities per g. wet wt. are discussed. 3. The major differences between the two tissues were: (a) neither malate dehydrogenase (decarboxylating) nor a soluble form of pyruvate carboxylase could be detected in rabbit mammary gland at any stage of the lactation cycle; (b) isocitrate dehydrogenase increased in activity during lactation in rabbit mammary gland, but not in that of the rat. 4. Pyruvate carboxylase in the mitochondrial fraction of rabbit mammary gland, and in both the mitochondrial and the soluble fractions of rat mammary gland, did not change in activity during lactation. 5. For each tissue, the NADP-dependent dehydrogenases studied had a high activity at all stages of the lactation cycle compared with the rate of fatty acid synthesis at mid-lactation. The significance of these results is discussed with respect to the supply of NADPH via NADH.

We previously demonstrated that feeding rats Steenbock and Black's rickets-inducing diet produces remarkable changes in the metabolic pattern of the intestinal mucosa, kidney, and liver and in some membrane transport systems of intestinal mucosa and kidney. 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 administration to rachitic rats did not always prove to be effective in restoring normal values. We have now investigated the effect of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 on the levels of some metabolites in rat cerebral cortex, on the activity of some enzymes, and on the transport of 2-deoxy-D-glucose and D-glucose in synaptosomes. Our experiments were carried out on three rat groups: control, rachitic, and rachitic treated with 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3. The decrease in phosphorus content and the increase in citrate concentration observed in rachitic rat cerebral cortex were corrected by 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 treatment. The activity of acetylcholinesterase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, and acyl phosphatase significantly increased in rachitic rat synaptosomes, as well as NAD(+)-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase in cerebral cortex mitochondria; the administration of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 to rachitic rats restored enzyme levels to normal. The transport of 2-deoxy-D-glucose and D-glucose in rachitic rat synaptosomes was lower than in the control group and returned to control values in consequence of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 treatment. The results reported here support the hypothesis of a participation of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 in some aspects of cerebral cortex metabolism.

We previously demonstrated that feeding rats the Steenbock and Black rickets-inducing diet produces remarkable changes in the metabolic pattern of intestinal mucosa, kidney, liver, cerebral cortex and heart. We have now determined the levels of calcium, phosphorus and citrate in cerebral cortex and the activity of some enzymes in synaptosomes and cerebral cortex mitochondria of three rat groups: control (Group A), fed a vitamin D-deficient diet (Group B), fed a vitamin D-deficient diet and treated with 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (Group C). While calcium content increased in Groups B and C, phosphorus concentration increased only in Group C and citrate in Group B in comparison with control. The increase in acetylcholinesterase and citrate synthase registered in Group B was restored to control values by 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 treatment, while, neither the decrease in cytochrome c oxidase, nor the increase in glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, acid phosphatase and NADP+(-)isocitrate dehydrogenase observed in Group B were corrected by 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 supply. Acyl phosphatase showed a remarkable increase in consequence of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 administration.

A new photoaffinity label, adenosine 2'-monophosphate, 5'-O-[S-(4-succinimidyl-benzophenone)thiophosphate] (2'-P-AMPS-Succ-BP), has been synthesized by an initial thiophosphorylation of 2'-AMP with PSCl(3) to form 2'-AMP-5'-thiophosphate (2'-AMP-5'-SP), followed by a coupling reaction of 2'-AMP-5'-SP with benzophenone-4-maleimide to produce 2'-P-AMPS-Succ-BP. This product and its precursor were characterized by thin-layer chromatography, (31)P NMR, phosphorus analysis, and electron-spray mass spectroscopy. 2'-P-AMPS-Succ-BP functions as a photoaffinity label of porcine NADP-specific isocitrate dehydrogenase. To obtain reaction with other amino acids, Cys269 and Cys379, the most reactive cysteines of this enzyme, were mutated to yield a double mutant enzyme (C269A/C379S) exhibiting comparable activity and kinetic parameters to those of wild-type enzyme. 2'-P-AMPS-Succ-BP inactivates C269A/C379S enzyme upon UV irradiation. The reaction exhibits a nonlinear relationship of k(inact) versus [2'-P-AMPS-Succ-BP] with K(R) = 12 microM and k(max) = 0.0275 min(-1). NADP, NADPH, or 2'-monophospho-adenosine 5'-diphosphoribose protects the enzyme against 2'-P-AMPS-Succ-BP inactivation. The ligand protection studies suggest that 2'-P-AMPS-Succ-BP binds to the porcine enzyme at the site best occupied by NADP/NADPH. The dimeric C269A/C379S isocitrate dehydrogenase incorporates 1.0 mol of 2'-P-[(35)S]AMPS-Succ-BP/mol enzyme dimer concomitant with complete loss of enzyme activity. The new photoaffinity label may be generally useful to identify important amino acid residues of NADP-specific enzymes.

Studying biochemical changes in the blood and liver of geese during cramming showed significant increases in the liver enzymes: malic dehydrogenase (MDH), lactic dehydrogenase (LDH), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and malic enzyme (ME), and a decrease in alkaline phosphatase (ALP). No significant changes were seen in the activity of isocitric dehydrogenase (ICDH), and glucose 6 phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH). There were significant increases in serum ME, ICDH, LDH, MDH, AST, acid phosphatase (ACP), sorbitol dehydrogenase (SDH), and total lipids and decreases in serum ALP, albumin and the haemocrit. No significant changes were seen in the activity of cholinesterase, glucose, total proteins, globulins and inorganic phosphorus. There were good correlations between liver size and the change of some of the biochemical parameters studied, which may serve as markers for the presence and degree of liver fattening. There were differences between families of gray and white geese and concentrations and activities of the blood constituents paralleled the degree of liver fattening. The possibility of using these parameters as genetic markers is discussed. No correlations were found between the liver and serum biochemical parameters. The effect of transporting the geese from the farm to the slaughter house on the levels of the blood constituents is described.
