The binding of coenzymes, NADP+ and NADPH, and coenzyme fragments, 2'-phosphoadenosine 5'-(diphosphoribose), adenosine 2',5'-bisphosphate, and 2'-AMP, to pig heart NADP+-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase has been studied by proton NMR. Transferred nuclear Overhauser enhancement (NOE) between the nicotinamide 1'-ribose proton and the 2-nicotinamide ring proton indicates that the nicotinamide-ribose bond assumes an anti conformation. For all nucleotides, a nuclear Overhauser effect between the adenine 1'-ribose proton and 8-adenine ring proton is observed, suggesting a predominantly syn adenine--ribose bond conformation for the enzyme-bound nucleotides. Transferred NOE between the protons at A2 and N6 is observed for NADPH (but not NADP+), implying proximity between adenine and nicotinamide rings in a folded enzyme-bound form of NADPH. Line-width measurements on the resonances of free nucleotides exchanging with bound species indicate dissociation rates ranging from less than 7 s-1 for NADPH to approximately 1600 s-1 for adenosine 2',5'-bisphosphate. Substrate, magnesium isocitrate, increases the dissociation rate for NADPH about 10-fold but decreases the corresponding rate for phosphoadenosine diphosphoribose and adenosine 2',5'-bisphosphate about 10-fold. These effects are consistent with changes in equilibrium dissociation constants measured under similar conditions. The 1H NMR spectrum of isocitrate dehydrogenase at pH 7.5 has three narrow peaks between delta 7.85 and 7.69 that shift with changes in pH and hence arise from C-4 protons of histidines. One of those, with pK = 5.35, is perturbed by NADP+ and NADPH but not by nucleotide fragments, indicating that this histidine is in the region of the nicotinamide binding site. Observation of nuclear Overhauser effects arising from selective irradiation at delta 7.55 indicates proximity of either a nontitrating histidine or an aromatic residue to the adenine ring of all nucleotides. In addition, selective irradiation of the methyl region of the enzyme spectrum demonstrates that the adenine ring is close to methyl side chains. The substrate magnesium isocitrate produces no observable differences in these protein--nucleotide interactions. The alterations in enzyme--nucleotide conformation that result in changes in affinity in the presence of substrate must involve either small shifts in the positions of amino acid side chains or changes in groups not visible in the proton NMR spectrum.

The first crystalline preparation of isocitrate dehydrogenase specific for nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate has been obtained with enzyme isolated from Escherichia coli. Scanning electron microscopy was employed to elucidate the structure of the crystals, which were found to exist as regular octahedrons ranging in size from 5 to 90 micrometers.

Three classes of cytochrome a-deficient mutants of Bacillus subtilis have been found to be asporogenic or oligosporogenic. All three classes showed declines in adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) concentrations during early sporulation, at a time when ATP levels in wild-type strains are constant. Class III mutants were found to be deficient in aconitase and isocitric dehydrogenase, and showed reduced maximum growth in nutrient sporulation medium. These mutants also suffered the most rapid decline in ATP concentration in early sporulation, and exhibited neither the biphasic oxygen consumption curve nor the increase in pH normally observed at the end of logarithmic growth in nutrient sporulation medium. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide oxidase activities of purified membrane preparations were approximately normal for mutants in all classes, except for two of the class II mutants and one class III mutant. Neither cytochrome a nor cytochrome c appears to be an obligatory intermediate in cyanide-sensitive nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide oxidation in B. subtilis.

Van Etten, James L. (University of Illinois, Urbana), H. Peter Molitoris, and David Gottlieb. Changes in fungi with age. II. Respiration and respiratory enzymes of Rhizoctonia solani and Sclerotium bataticola. J. Bacteriol. 91:169-175. 1966.-The rate of respiration of Rhizoctonia solani and Sclerotium bataticola decreased with age. This decrease in respiratory rate might be produced by a decrease in the specific activity of one or more enzymes involved in carbohydrate metabolism. Specific activities in cell-free extracts were measured for most of the enzymes in the hexose monophosphate shunt, Embden-Meyerhof-Parnas pathway, tricarboxylic acid cycle, and terminal electron-transport system. In addition, glucose oxidase, isocitritase, and malic enzyme were measured. In R. solani, increases in activity with age occurred for hexokinase, alpha-glycerolphosphate dehydrogenase, malic dehydrogenase, and cytochrome oxidase. Decreases occurred for phosphohexokinase, aconitase, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide-specific isocitric dehydrogenase, reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide oxidase, and at least one of the enzymes between 3-phosphoglycerate and pyruvate. In S. bataticola, increases in activity with age were observed for phosphohexokinase, pyruvic dehydrogenase, fumarase, malic dehydrogenase, and malic enzyme, whereas none of the enzymes decreased. The specific activities of the remaining enzymes did not change with age in either fungus.

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.

Octanoic acid inhibits, in vitro, the bacterial enzymes glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, phosphofructokinase, pyruvate kinase, fumarase, lactate dehydrogenase, and the malic enzyme of Arthrobacter crystallopoietes. The free fatty acid appears to act as an inhibitor of lipogenesis, although it does not affect the rate of gluconeogenesis. To demonstrate that this inhibition may be of physiological significance in vivo, those enzymes not involved in lipogenesis, such as fructose-1, 6-diphosphatase, phosphoglucomutase, phosphohexoisomerase, aconitase, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP) isocitrate dehydrogenase, NADP glutamate dehydrogenase, malate dehydrogenase, and isocitrate lyase, were assayed and found not to be inhibited by the free fatty acid.

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.

Ragland, T. E. (Brandeis University, Waltham, Mass.), T. Kawasaki, and J. M. Lowenstein. Comparative aspects of some bacterial dehydrogenases and transhydrogenases. J. Bacteriol. 91:236-244. 1966.-Twenty-eight diverse bacterial species were surveyed for the activities and coenzyme specificities of four enzymes: isocitrate dehydrogenase (ICDH), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PDH), 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (6-PGDH), and reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) transhydrogenase (TH). Most of the species that exhibited a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP)-linked ICDH also showed significant TH activity, but there were several which did not. Only one of the organisms tested, Xanthomonas pruni, had an ICDH active with both NAD and NADP; it was devoid of TH activity. Acetobacter suboxydans, which lacks ICDH altogether, also had no TH. Some of the species examined had G-6-PDH or 6-PGDH (or both) of dual coenzyme specificity, but there was no apparent relation between these findings and the presence or absence of TH. The TH reaction was assayed by use of analogues of NAD as acceptors. The bacteria could be divided into two groups on the basis of TH specificity, one group reacting at a much faster rate with the 3-acetylpyridine analogue of NAD than with the thionicotinamide analogue, whereas the converse was true for the other group. A few organisms showed no marked specificity for either analogue. This division of specificity can be related to the currently accepted taxonomic classification of the organisms, although a few apparent anomalies were found.

The antifungal antibiotic flavensomycin inhibited the oxidation of amino acids and of glucose by Penicillium oxalicum. The compound inhibited l-amino acid oxidase (EC 1.4.3.2) activity for l-leucine and l-phenylalanine, and also d-amino acid oxidase (EC 1.4.3.3) in the oxidation for dl-alanine. The addition of flavin adenine dinucleotide, which is a cofactor for this enzyme, antagonized the action of the antibiotic. Glucose oxidase (EC 1.1.3.4) was also inhibited. The antibiotic inhibited the reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH(2)) cytochrome c reductase (EC 1.6.2.1) as well as the much slower nonenzymatic reduction of this cytochrome by the nucleotide. Reduced cytochrome c was also oxidized nonenzymatically by flavensomycin. The antibiotic completely inhibited the action of rabbit muscle lactic dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.27) in promoting the reduction of pyruvate by NADH(2) but only slightly affected the reverse reaction. Alcohol dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.1) was also similarly inhibited. Flavensomycin prevented the reduction of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate by isocitrate in the presence of isocitrate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.42). The hexokinase (EC 2.7.1.1)-catalyzed phosphorylation of glucose, in which the adenosine triphosphate acts as a phosphate donor, was only slightly affected. Flavensomycin also inhibited the action of yeast lactate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.2.3) on the reduction of cytochrome c. High concentrations of cytochrome c were antagonistic to this reaction. The results point to an interference with enzymatically controlled hydrogen or electron transfer as the mechanism of the antifungal activity of flavensomycin.

Electrophoretically distinct forms of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate-specific isocritrate dehydrogenase have been observed in extracts of Escherichia coli grown under different culture conditions. In glucose-grown cells, two distinct bands of isocitrate dehydrogenase activity were observed on polyacrylamide gels and have been completely resolved by employing ion-exchange chromatography. These multiple forms of the enzyme have been studied and their possible metabolic role is discussed.
