Several enzymes active in the presence of NAD with acetaldehyde and propionaldehyde have been purified from human brain and characterized. The enzymes have been identified as aldehyde dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.3), NAD-linked succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.24), and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.12). Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase is extremely heterogeneous with some isozymes active with acetaldehyde, others inactive. The cytoplasmic enzyme, which is the classical glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, is inactive with acetaldehyde as substrate; the isozymes that are active with short chain aliphatic aldehydes are localized in the mitochondrial fraction. Properties of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase isozymes with respect to short chain aliphatic aldehydes and inhibition by disulfiram are described. Their Km values for acetaldehyde range from 300 to 2000 microM. All glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenases that are active with acetaldehyde are easily inactivated by low concentrations of disulfiram. In all cases activity regain can be obtained with 2-mercaptoethanol; in the case of two glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate isozymes (E8.5 and 9.0), activity can also be regained with cysteine and with glutathione; activity of E6.6 and E6.8 glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenases could not be regained with 33 microM cysteine or glutathione. Succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase and aldehyde dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.3) were also inhibited by disulfiram; their activity could be regained with 2-mercaptoethanol but not with 33 microM cysteine or glutathione. Comparison of human brain succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase and aldehyde dehydrogenase with glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase shows that the activity with short chain aldehydes is not unique to aldehyde dehydrogenase; neither is sensitivity to disulfiram; activity with 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetaldehyde appears to be a unique property of aldehyde dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.3).

The effect of ATP on the formation, spectral properties, and reactions of [beta-(2-furyl)acryloyl]glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (FA-GPDH) has been investigated. The chromophoric FA-GPDH has the advantage of providing spectrophotometric signals of the interaction of acyl enzyme with nucleotides and dinucleotides. The results are consistent with the exclusive existence of two acyl-enzyme conformations previously inferred from the interaction of the acyl enzyme with NAD+ and NADH. ATP interaction stabilizes a conformation different from that stabilized by NAD+. The inhibitory effects of ATP on these reactions are consistent with the reported inhibitory effect of ATP on the steady-state reaction with the true substrate. The physiological significance of these results to the regulation of glycolysis, via the ligand-dependent fate of 3-phosphoglycerol-GPDH, is discussed.

The analogue of NAD+, 4-chloroacetylpyridine-adenine dinucleotide (clac4PdAD+), inactivated the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase from sturgeon at a high rate. An affinity labeling was shown to occur with clac4PdAD+. The mononucleotide 4-chloroacetylpyridine 1-beta-D-ribose 5'-phosphate (clac4PdMN+) reacted with the enzyme in a second-order reaction whose rate was much smaller than that calculated for clac4PdAD+ taken as a second-order rate reagent. The rate of the reaction of clac4PdAD+ with the enzyme was determined by stopped flow, using as a probe the long-wavelength absorption maximum (430 nm) formed concomitantly with inactivation of the enzyme. Computer-assisted graphic simulation showed that the clac4PdAD+ analogue could bind to the active site of the enzyme from Bacillus stearothermophilus in a similar manner to that of NAD+, and that the reactive carbon and the reactive thiolate of Cys-149 were within bonding distance. The absorption at 430 nm was linearly proportional to the substoichiometric concentration of clac4PdAD+/mole subunit. Thiol titration suggested the modification of one thiol residue per subunit. The modified thiol was identified by degradation as Cys-149. In contrast to the absorption band generated during the reaction of the 3-chloroacetylpyridine-adenine dinucleotide (clac3PdAD+) with the same enzyme [Eur. J. Biochem. (1982) 127, 519-524; 129, 437-446], enzyme inactivated with clac4PdAD+ and clac4PdMN+ exhibited an absorption maximum at long wavelength which was still present after denaturation. The chromophore is proposed to be the enol form of the alpha-thioether ketone produced by alkylation of the thiolate of Cys-149 by the chloroacetyl group.

The acceptors of endogenously catalyzed monoADP-ribosylation in the cell free extract from rat skeletal muscle was searched. The main acceptor proteins in particulate were electrophoretically 52, 80, 100, and greater than 200 kDa proteins in the presence of SDS, while that in cytosol were 36 and 39 kDa proteins. Although no ADP-ribosylation was observed in particulate when the substrate NAD+ was replaced by ADP-ribose, the same ADP-ribose adducts were also formed with higher degree in cytosol. These results indicate that an enzymic and nonenzymic monoADP-ribosylation occur separately in cytosol and particulate. One acceptor, 36 kDa protein, appears to be glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase.

Controlled oxidation of rat muscle glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GPDH) was carried out in an attempt to stimulate age-related effects observed in enzyme samples purified from old animals. A comparative study of the "simulated aged" and of native young and old GPDH forms was done using fluorescence techniques. The present work is based on our previous findings that the locus of the age-related modifications in GPDH is in the nicotinamide-binding site, where the catalytically active Cys-149 residue is located, and that an increase in oxidation potential occurs in old animal tissues which may enable various oxidizing agents to play a significant role in the inactivation of certain enzymes. Thus it has been suggested that the loss of specific activity observed in old GPDH may be due to subtle and irreversible conformational changes caused by reaction of Cys-149 with these agents. The circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) spectrum emitted by the fluorescent sulfhydryl reagent I-AEDANS covalently bound to GPDH through Cys-149 at the nicotinamide binding site, revealed a significant difference in conformation between these sites in young and old GPDH forms. Large differences were also observed between corresponding spectra when the binding sites were saturated with NAD+, reflecting the development of marked conformational changes in both young and old GPDH species upon coenzyme binding. The oxidizing reagents employed in the current study (hydrogen peroxide, superoxide radical and atmospheric dioxygen) are all expected to be more commonly encountered in the less reducing environment of old animal tissues. All of them, though to a different extent, caused a significant inactivation of the enzyme dependent on the initial oxidant concentration. Although the original enzymatic activity could be partially restored by incubation with a reducing agent, the prior oxidation was found to induce some irreversible structural changes as expressed in a decrease in the number of fast reacting SH groups. The extent of irreversible inactivation was a function of both oxidant concentration and the duration of exposure to the oxidant. The affinity of the oxidized GPDH species (termed "aged") toward coenzyme, as monitored by fluorometric titrations, was markedly lower than that observed for both the native young and old GPDHs. In addition, the CPL spectra of the "aged" enzymes were different from those obtained for both native forms.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

In renal tubules isolated from fed rabbits glycerol is not utilized as a glucose precursor, probably due to the rate-limiting transfer of reducing equivalents from cytosol to mitochondria. Pyruvate and glutamate stimulated an incorporation of [14C]glycerol to glucose by 50- and 10-fold, respectively, indicating that glycerol is utilized as a gluconeogenic substrate under these conditions. Glycerol at concentration of 1.5 mM resulted in an acceleration of both glucose formation and incorporation of [14C]pyruvate and [14C]glutamate into glucose by 2- and 9-fold, respectively, while it decreased the rates of these processes from lactate as a substrate. In the presence of fructose, glycerol decreased the ATP level, limiting the rate of fructose phosphorylation and glucose synthesis. As concluded from the 'cross-over' plots, the ratios of both 3-hydroxybutyrate/acetoacetate and glycerol 3-phosphate/dihydroxyacetone phosphate, as well as from experiments performed with methylene blue and acetoacetate, the stimulatory effect of glycerol on glucose formation from pyruvate and glutamate may result from an acceleration of fluxes through the first steps of gluconeogenesis as well as glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase. As inhibition by glycerol of gluconeogenesis from lactate is probably due to a marked elevation of the cytosolic NADH/NAD+ ratio resulting in a decline of flux through lactate dehydrogenase.

Incubation of rabbit muscle glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) with the antibiotic pentalenolactone (1) resulted in time-dependent, irreversible inhibition of GAPDH. The kinetics of inactivation were biphasic, exhibiting an initial rapid phase and a slower second phase. Pentalenolactone methyl ester (2) also irreversibly inactivated GADPH, albeit at a slower rate and with a higher KI. The substrate glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G-3-P) afforded protection against inactivation by 1, whereas the presence of NAD+ in the incubation mixture stimulated the inactivation by increasing the apparent affinity of the enzyme for the inhibitor. In steady-state kinetic experiments, 1 acted as a competitive inhibitor of GAPDH with respect to G-3-P but exhibited uncompetitive inhibition with respect to NAD+. Inactivation of NAD+-free apo-GAPDH by 1 showed simple pseudo-first-order kinetics. By titrating the free thiol residues of partially inactivated GAPDH, it was found that both pentalenolactone and pentalenolactone methyl ester react with all four Cys-SH residues of the tetrameric GAPDH.

The proliferation of in vitro grown Ehrlich ascites tumor cells is inhibited by pyruvate concentrations greater than 2 mM. In the presence of 4-5 mM pyruvate the growth is reduced to about 50%, in the presence of 20 mM to about 5-10%. Viability of the cells is not severely affected. Increase of DNA corresponds to the cell growth. On recultivation in pyruvate free standard medium, growth is nearly normal. Flow cytometric analyses of the proliferation kinetics of the cells in the presence of 20 mM pyruvate revealed a retardation of the passage of all phases of the cell cycle. No phase specific effects could be detected though the S- and G2M-phase are more afflicted than G1. The growth inhibition of EAT cells by pyruvate seems to depend on the presence of glucose. Exogenous pyruvate (greater than 1-2 mM) causes an activation of pyruvate dehydrogenase, a reduction of lactate production from glucose and a stimulation of lipid biosynthesis; the NAD/NADH ratio of the cells is reduced and a rise of glycolytic intermediates beyond glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase is observed. Maximal activation of pyruvate dehydrogenase by non toxic concentrations of dichloroacetate is also accompanied by an inhibition of cell growth. It is suggested that an increase of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate level and the changes in the redox state of the cells are of relevance for the inhibition of cell growth by pyruvate. 100-500 microM exogenous glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate strongly inhibited cell growth.

A 1523-base-pair DNA fragment, spanning the gap gene from Escherichia coli, has been sequenced. It contains an open-reading frame whose length (330 amino acids) is in agreement with D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) molecular mass. This coding sequence is preceded by a Shine-Dalgarno complementary sequence and by two overlapping promoter-like structures. The codon usage within gap is consistent with that expected for a gene which is strongly expressed. The amino acid sequence of the E. coli GAPDH, deduced from the DNA sequence, contains all the amino acids postulated to play a functional role in GAPDH. Comparison of the E. coli enzyme with enzymes from other species reveals different evolutionary behaviour of the NAD+-binding domain and of the catalytic domain of GAPDH. The E. coli enzyme is found to be more similar to eucaryotic enzymes than to enzymes from thermophilic bacteria. This observation is discussed in terms of adaptation to growth at high temperature.

The human X-linked phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK) gene, which is expressed in all somatic cells, was cloned and its structure was determined. The gene is interrupted by 10 introns and spans 23 kilobases. When projected on the three-dimensional structure of the PGK protein molecule, splice junctions are located between established peptide domains. In particular, an intron separates the two mononucleotide subdomains of the ATP-binding region, and additional introns divide each of these subdomains between their characteristic beta-strands. Similar correlations are found in the bipartite NAD-binding domains of alcohol dehydrogenase and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase. Furthermore, in each case the nucleotide-binding domain is separated from the catalytic domain by at least one intron. The homology of the exon organization in structurally similar regions of these three enzymes suggests that a nucleotide-binding domain evolved by gene duplication and was subsequently dispersed to different proteins through a process of intron-mediated recombination.
