31P NMR magnetization-transfer measurements were used to measure flux between inorganic phosphate and ATP in the reactions catalyzed by phosphoglycerate kinase and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase in anaerobic cells of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Flux between ATP and Pi and glucose consumption and ethanol production were measured in cells expressing different levels of phosphoglycerate kinase activity. Overexpression of the enzyme was obtained by transforming the cells with a multicopy plasmid containing the phosphoglycerate kinase coding sequence and portions of the promoter element. Fluxes were also measured in cells in which the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase activity had been lowered by limited incubation with iodoacetate. These measurements showed that both enzymes have low flux control coefficients for glycolysis but that phosphoglycerate kinase has a relatively high flux control coefficient for the ATP----Pi exchange catalyzed by the two enzymes. The Pi----ATP exchange velocities observed in the cell were shown to be similar to those displayed by the isolated enzymes in vitro under conditions designed to mimic those in the cell with respect to the enzyme substrate concentrations.

Mutants of mucoid Pseudomonas aeruginosa defective in fructose-bisphosphate aldolase (FBA), NADP-linked glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAP) or 3-phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK) were unable to grow on gluconeogenic precursors like glutamate, succinate or lactate. The gap and pgk mutants could grow on glucose, gluconate or glycerol, but fba mutants could not. This suggests that the metabolism of glucose or gluconate does not require either PGK or NADP-linked GAP but does require the operation of the aldolase-catalysed step. For gluconeogenesis, however, all three steps are essential. Recombinant plasmids carrying genes for FBA, PGK, GAP or phospho-2-keto-3-deoxygluconate aldolase (EDA) activities were constructed from a genomic library of mucoid P. aeruginosa selecting for complementation of deficiency mutations. Analysis of their complementation profile indicated that one group of plasmids carried fba and pgk genes, while another group carried eda, 6-phosphogluconate dehydratase (edd) and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (zwf) genes. The gap gene was not linked to any of these markers. Partial restoration of FBA activity in spontaneous revertants of Fba- mutants was accompanied by a concomitant loss of PGK activity. These experiments indicate a linkage between the fba and pgk genes on the P. aeruginosa chromosome.

Glycosomes are intracellular, membrane-bound microbody organelles of trypanosomes and leishmania. Nine glycolytic enzymes are the major protein components of the glycosomes of Trypanosoma brucei long-slender bloodstream forms. Glycosomal proteins are believed to be synthesized in the cytoplasm and inserted across the glycosomal membrane posttranslationally. We have developed an in vitro protein import assay for the study of glycosomal biogenesis in T. brucei. All nine glycosomal glycolytic enzymes were detectable by immunoprecipitation and gel analysis of radiolabeled products derived from in vitro translation of total mRNA. Radiolabeled translational products were incubated with purified glycosomes isolated from bloodstream forms and digested with protease to remove proteins not imported into glycosomes. Gel analysis of reisolated glycosomes revealed that glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.12) and 3-phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK) (EC 2.7.2.3) were apparently imported intact into the glycosome. Specificity of the protein import assay was verified by using translational products derived from cloned genes encoding T. brucei glycosomal PGK and its 95% homologous cytosolic isozyme. Glycosomal PGK was inserted into the glycosome in vitro with a 27.6% efficiency, but no imported cytosolic PGK was detectable. Preliminary data suggest that certain sequences between the N terminus and residue 123 may be important for import of glycosomal PGK. Our assay, combined with the potential use of genetically altered substrate proteins, may provide the opportunity to explore the recognition systems involved in glycosome biogenesis.

31P nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) saturation-transfer (ST) techniques have been used to measure steady-state flows through phosphate-adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) exchange reactions in glucose-grown derepressed yeast. Our results have revealed that the reactions catalyzed by glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase/phosphoglycerate kinase (GAPDH/PGK) and by the mitochondrial ATPase contribute to the observed ST. Contributions from these reactions were evaluated by performing ST studies under various metabolic conditions in the presence and absence of either iodoacetate, a specific inhibitor of GAPDH, or the respiratory chain inhibitor antimycin A. Intracellular phosphate (Pi) longitudinal relaxation times were determined by performing inversion recovery experiments during steady-state ATP gamma saturation and were used in combination with ST data to determine Pi consumption rates. 13C NMR and O2 electrode measurements were also conducted to monitor changes in rates of glucose consumption and O2 consumption, respectively, under the various metabolic conditions examined. Our results suggest that GAPDH/PGK-catalyzed Pi-ATP exchange is responsible for antimycin-resistant saturation transfer observed in anaerobic and aerobic glucose-fed yeast. Kinetics through GAPDH/PGK were found to depend on metabolic conditions. The coupled system appears to operate in a unidirectional manner during anaerobic glucose metabolism and bidirectionally when the cells are respiring on exogenously supplied ethanol. Additionally, mitochondrial ATPase activity appears to be responsible for the transfer observed in iodoacetate-treated aerobic cells supplied with either glucose or ethanol, with synthesis of ATP occurring unidirectionally.

Interactions of glucose-6-phosphate isomerase (D-glucose-6-phosphate ketol-isomerase, EC 5.3.1.9), aldolase (D-fructose-1,6-bisphosphate D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate lyase, EC 4.1.2.13), glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate:NAD+ oxidoreductase (phosphorylating), EC 1.2.1.12), triose-phosphate isomerase (D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate ketol-isomerase, EC 5.3.1.1), phosphoglycerate mutase (D-phosphoglycerate 2,3-phosphomutase, EC 5.4.2.1), phosphoglycerate kinase (ATP:3-phospho-D-glycerate 1-phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.3), enolase (2-phospho-D-glycerate hydro-lyase, EC 4.2.1.11), pyruvate kinase (ATP:Pyruvate O2-phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.40) and lactate dehydrogenase [S)-lactate:NAD+ oxidoreductase, EC 1.1.1.27) with F-actin, among the glycolytic enzymes listed above, and with phosphofructokinase (ATP:D-fructose-6-phosphate 1-phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.11) were studied in the presence of poly(ethylene glycol). Both purified rabbit muscle enzymes and rabbit muscle myogen, a high-speed supernatant fraction containing the glycolytic enzymes, were used to study enzyme-F-actin interactions. Following ultracentrifugation, F-actin and poly(ethylene glycol) tended to increase and KCl to decrease the pelleting of enzymes. In general, the greater part of the pelleting occurred in the presence of both F-actin and poly(ethylene glycol) and the absence of KCl. Enzymes that pelleted more in myogen preparations than as individual purified enzymes in the presence of poly(ethylene glycol) and the absence of F-actin were tested for specific enzyme-enzyme associations, several of which were observed. Such interactions support the view that the internal cell structure is composed of proteins that interact with one another to form the microtrabecular lattice.

A radiometric method has been devised for the determination of small quantities of NADH formed in preceding dehydrogenase reactions. In a coupled enzymatic reaction, phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK) catalyzes the transfer of [32P]orthophosphate from [gamma-32P]ATP to 3-phosphoglycerate; the intermediate, 1,3-[1-32P]diphosphoglycerate, is dephosphorylated by glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAP-DH). [32P]Orthophosphate is released proportionally to NADH and can be measured after adsorption of [gamma-32P]ATP to activated charcoal. With this method, 0.2 pmol of NADH are detectable in the presence of a 10(4)-fold excess of NAD over NADH.

The effects of ischemia on mitochondrial function and the unidirectional rate of ATP synthesis (Pi----ATP rate) were studied using a Langendorff-perfused heart preparation and 31P NMR spectroscopy. There was significant postischemic depression of mechanical function assessed as the heart rate pressure product, and the myocardial oxygen consumption rate at a given rate pressure product was elevated. Experiments performed on glucose- and pyruvate-perfused hearts demonstrated the presence of a large contribution to the unidirectional Pi----ATP rate catalyzed by glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and phosphoglycerate kinase. This rate was much greater than the maximal glucose utilization rate in the myocardium, demonstrating that the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase/phosphoglycerate kinase reactions are near equilibrium both before and after ischemia. In the pyruvate-perfused postischemic hearts, the glycolytic contribution was eliminated and the net rate of ATP synthesis by oxidative phosphorylation was measurable. Despite the reduced mechanical function and increased myocardial oxygen consumption rate, the ratio of the net rate of ATP synthesis by oxidative phosphorylation to oxygen consumption rate (the P:O ratio) was not altered subsequent to ischemia (2.34 +/- 0.12 and 2.36 +/- 0.09 in normal and postischemic hearts, respectively). Therefore, mitochondrial uncoupling cannot be the cause of postischemic depression in mechanical function; instead, the data suggest the existence of ischemia-induced inefficiency in ATP utilization.

Muscles sampled from a vascularly isolated autoperfused dog gracilis by fast freezing techniques at 5, 10, 15, 30, 60, and 180 s after the initiation of twitch contractions at 4 Hz were analyzed for phosphocreatine, creatine, ATP, lactate, pyruvate, 3-phosphoglycerate, and dihydroxyacetonephosphate contents. Metabolite concentrations were used with equilibrium constants of triosephosphate isomerase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, phosphoglycerate kinase, lactate dehydrogenase, and creatine kinase to estimate cytosolic pH changes during the rest-to-work transition. Magnesium and hydrogen binding were taken into account. Limits to this approach include errors in the intermediate measurements and uncertainties in values of the equilibrium constants. The former leads to maximum errors of +/- 0.15 pH units, whereas the latter affects the absolute pH value but not estimates of the changes in pH. The estimated pH increases from a resting value of 7.05 to approximately 7.8 by 5 s of stimulation and then falls to a pH value of approximately 6.5 after 3 min of stimulation. The results are consistent with previous studies but permit identification of a larger early alkaline shift. Potential causes for the pH changes are discussed.

Using glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and phosphoglycerate kinase as a linked enzyme assay for determination of free inorganic phosphate, as described by Trentham et al. (1972, Biochem. J. 126, 635-644) we have been able to monitor the time course of Pi release from F-actin following ATP hydrolysis that accompanies ATP-actin polymerization. The rate constant for Pi dissociation from Mg-F-actin is 0.006 s-1 at 25 degrees C and pH 7.8, both in the presence of 1 mM Mg and 0.1 M KCl + 1 mM Mg. This result confirms the existence of ADP-Pi-F-actin as a major intermediate in the polymerization of ATP-actin (Carlier and Pantaloni, 1986, Biochemistry 25, 7789-7792). The method is potentially useful for other enzymes hydrolyzing triphosphate nucleotides, provided that the rate of Pi release is appreciably lower than 0.1 s-1.

In the process of defining the recruitment of fuel and pathway selection in rainbow trout fast-twitch white skeletal muscle, it was clear that the near-maximal myosin adenosinetriphosphatase activity during a 10-s sprint was supported solely by phosphocreatine hydrolysis. A conservative estimate of the ATP turnover was 188 mumol X g wet wt-1 X min-1. It was not until the rate and force of contraction decreased that the relative contribution of anaerobic glycogenolysis became increasingly important. Over a 10-min period of burst swimming at approximately 120% of maximum aerobic steady-state swimming velocity of trout determined in a Brett-type swim tunnel, fatigue was associated with the near-depletion of glycogen in white muscle. The ATP turnover supported by anaerobic glycogenolysis was 78 mumol X g wet wt-1 X min-1. The glycolytic pathway appeared functional at this time with control sites being identified at hexokinase and phosphofructokinase (PFK-1). PFK-1 did not appear to be inhibited by low muscle pH (pH 6.66). In another exercise protocol lasting 30 min, complete exhaustion was related to glycogen depletion. The sum of all glycolytic intermediates from glucose 6-phosphate to pyruvate at exhaustion decreased by a dramatic 80% compared with the 25% decrease for the 10-min fatigue swimming protocol. This large depletion of glycolytic intermediates was accompanied by an 80% fall in ATP, a 70-80% reduction in the ATP/ADP and phosphorylation potential, and a 2.5-fold increase in the NAD/NADH. Associated with these changes was a marked displacement of the phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK), and the combined glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase-PGK reactions from thermodynamic equilibrium. As a general conclusion, fatigue and exhaustion should be viewed as a multicomponent biochemical process in response to low glycogen and not leveled at one particular step of the glycolytic pathway.
