Effects of glucose concentration and anoxia upon the metabolite concentrations and rates of glycolysis and respiration have been investigated in the perfused liver of the fetal guinea pig. In most cases the metabolite concentrations in the perfused liver were similar to those observed in vivo. Between 50 days and term there was a fall in the respiratory rate and in the concentration of ATP and fructose 1,6-diphosphate and an increase in the concentration of glutamate, glycogen and glucose. Reducing the medium glucose concentration from 10 mM to 1 mM or 0.1 mM depressed lactate production and the concentration of most of the phosphorylated intermediates (except 6-phosphogluconate) in the liver of the 50-day fetus. This indicates a fall in glycolytic rate which is not in accord with the known kinetic properties of hexokinase in the fetal liver. Anoxia increased lactate production by, and the concentrations of, the hexose phosphates ADP and AMP in the 50-day to term fetal liver, while the concentration of ribulose 5-phosphate, ATP and some triose phosphates fell. These results are consistent with an activation of glycolysis, particularly at phosphofructokinase and of a reduction in pentose phosphate pathway activity, particularly at 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase. The calculated cytosolic NAD+/NADH ratio for the perfused liver was similar to that measured in vivo and evidence is presented to suggest that the dihydroxyacetone phosphate/glycerol 3-phosphate ratio gives a better indication of cytosolic redox than the lactate/pyruvate ratio. The present observations indicate that phosphofructokinase hexokinase and possibly pyruvate kinase control the glycolytic rate and that glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase is at equilibrium in the perfused liver of the fetal guinea pig.

Immunochemical study of D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase from rat skeletal muscle was done using antibodies, raised in rabbit. One molecule of the enzyme binds three antibody molecules at the equivalence point and eight molecules at full saturation of the antibody binding sites. Modification of SH-groups of the dehydrogenase with pCMB, as well as ADP-induced inactivation of the enzyme do not cause any alterations in the quantitative precipitation curve. This suggests that antigenic determinants and the active site are situated in different loci on the enzyme molecule. A quantitative relationship between the dehydrogenase concentration and the percentage decrease of its catalytic activity in the presence of antibody excess are established, and a mechanism of apparent inhibition in the insoluble immune complex is proposed.

The effect of NAD on the binding of 1-anilino-8-naphthalene sulfonate (ANS) to yeast glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase has been studied using difference spectrophotometric and fluorescence techniques. Coenzyme addition causes the displacement of ANS from its complex with the dehydrogenase, as suggested by the effect of NAD on the fluorescence of the enzyme--ANS complex, as well as on the magnitude of the difference spectrum of the complex. Adenine containing NAD fragments, adenosine, 5'-AMP, and ADP were shown to compete with ANS for the common site on the enzyme using fluorimetric technique; in the case of adenosine and 5'-AMP a direct method of analytical ultracentrifugation was also employed. The results obtained by both methods suggest the dye binding at the adenine subsite of the dehydrogenase. The interaction with ANS causes no detectable conformational changes of the protein. The fluorescence of the dye-enzyme complex increases and the emission maximum shifts to shorter wavelengths on addition of nicotinamide mononucleotide. This suggest some conformational changes to occur in the microenvironment of the bound dye in response to the interaction with the ligand in the nicotinamide subsite. The participation of the nicotinamide subsite of the active center in determining the character of conformational transitions associated with coenzyme binding to glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase is discussed.

[omega-(3-Acetylpyridinio)-n-alkyl]adenosine pyrophosphates are coenzyme analogs of NAD. The adenosine pyrophosphate moiety and the 3-acetylpyridine ring of the analogs are connected by n-alkyl chains of different lengths (ethyl--hexyl). The analogs form strong dissociating complexes with lactate dehydrogenase. The complex formation is predominantly achieved by interaction of the ADP moiety with its respective binding domain at the active site. The redox potentials of the analogs and NAD are of similar magnitude. The coenzyme function of the analogs depends upon the length of the hydrocarbon chain. Lactate dehydrogenase and alcohol dehydrogenases from yeast and horse liver do not catalize hydrogen transfer from their substrates to any other alkyl analog but [4-(3-acetylpyridinio)-n-butyl]adenosine pyrophosphate, aldehyde dehydrogenase from horse liver catalizes hydrogen transfer from acetaldehyde to the pentyl derivative and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase catalizes hydrogen transfer to both analogs. In no case, hydrogen transfer from or to one of the 3-acetylpyridine-n-alkyl analogs proceeded with a velocity comparable to NAD or its 3-acetylpyridine analog. The results show that the nicotinamide bound ribose in NAD is involved in the binding and the activation of the coenzyme.

The effect of dichloroacetate on rates of gluconeogenesis was studied in isolated parenchymal cells obtained from the livers of normal fasted rats. Dichloroacetate significantly inhibited glucose formation from endogenous substrates and from added precursors (e.g., lactate, pyruvate, or glycerate) which enter the gluconeogenic pathway prior to the level of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GPDH). In contrast, dichloroacetate did not significantly affect glucose synthesis from precursors (e.g., fructose, or glycerol) which enter beyond the GPDH-catalyzed step. Lactate production from fructose of glycerol was unaffected by dichloroacetate. Inhibition of gluconeogenesis occurred regardless of the apparent effects of dichloroacetate on the redox state of the cytosol. Dichloroacetate produced variable effects on the lactate-pyruvate substate pair, while it consistently produced a more oxidized state in the beta-hydroxybutyrate--acetoacetate couple. Unlike uncoupling agents, dichloroacetate reduced glucose synthesis without stimulating respiration or altering total adenine nucleotide levels or ATP/ADP ratios. Dichloroacetate did not affect the metabolism of lactate or pyruvate to CO2 or glycogen. It did, however, significantly inhibit conversion by the cells of added lactate to pyruvate and glucose or of added pyruvate to lactate and glucose.

The inhibition of rat skeletal muscle glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase by specific antibodies produced in rabbits has been studied. The results suggest that no influence on the enzyme active site is caused by the interaction with antibody, the inhibition being due entirely to the restricted accessibility for substrates of a part of dehydrogenase molecules included in the immune precipitate. Soluble complexes of the enzyme with monovalent Fab antibody fragments retain full catalytic activity. Modification of 8 -SH groups per mole of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase with p-chloromercuribenzoate results in no alterations in the quantitative precipitin curve, thus supporting the conclusion about the different localization of species-specific antigenic determinants of the enzyme and its active center. Interaction with monovalent Fab fragments of antibody stabilizes the structure of the dehydrogenase. Eight molar equivalents of Fab fragments almost completely protect the enzyme from cold inactivation in the presence of 0.15 M NaCl. Complex formation with Fab fragments does not prevent, however, the ADP-induced inactivation of the enzyme.

Using conditions that produced chronic inflammation in rat liver, we were able to find a correlation between induction of nitric oxide production and inhibition of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH; EC 1.2.1.12). This enzyme is a tetramer composed of identical M(r) 37,000 subunits. The tetramer contains 16 thiol groups, four of which are essential for enzymatic activity. Our information indicates that four thiol groups are S-nitrosylated by exposure to authentic nitric oxide (NO) gas. Furthermore, NO decreased GAPDH activity while increasing its auto-ADP-ribosylation. Reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide and dithiothreitol are required for the S-nitrosylation of GAPDH caused by the NO-generating compound sodium nitroprusside. Our results suggests that a new and important action of nitric oxide on cells is the S-nitrosylation and inactivation of GAPDH. S-Nitrosylation of GAPDH may be a key covalent modification of multiple regulatory consequences in chronic liver inflammation.

Nitric oxide generation in brain cytosolic fractions markedly enhances ADP-ribosylation of a single 37-kDa protein. By utilizing a biotinylated NAD and avidin affinity chromatography, we purified this protein. Partial amino acid sequencing establishes its identity as glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH). This is further confirmed by detection of GAPDH enzymatic activity in the purified 37-kDa protein. GAPDH is ADP-ribosylated in the absence of brain extract. This auto-ADP-ribosylation is enhanced by nitric oxide generation. ADP-ribosylation appears to involve the cysteine where NAD interacts with GAPDH so that ADP-ribosylation likely inhibits enzymatic activity. Such inhibition may play a role in nitric oxide-mediated neurotoxicity.

Auto-ADP-ribosylation of the glycolytic enzyme glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GraPDH) has recently been demonstrated to be dramatically stimulated in the presence of nitric oxide. In order to obtain insight into the sequence of events leading to ADP-ribosylation of GraPDH, we studied the target amino acid, the nucleotide cofactor requirement, pH dependency and the stoichiometry of the reaction. Basal as well as stimulated ADP-ribose transfer is inhibited by the SH-group alkylating reagent, N-ethylmaleimide. Furthermore, the radiolabel of auto-[32P]ADP-ribosylated GraPDH is removed by treatment with HgCl2, suggesting an ADP-ribose-cysteine bond. Several indirect and direct mechanistic considerations point to NAD+ as the only cofactor for the ADP-ribosylation reaction, excluding the possibility of a reaction sequence involving a NAD-glycohydrolase(s) followed by nonenzymatic ADP-ribose transfer to GraPDH. Optimal ADP-ribosylations were carried out at alkaline pH values using 10 microM free NAD+ as the sole nucleotide cofactor. Bovine serum albumin with an S-nitrosylated SH group can serve as a model of ADP-ribose transfer from NAD+ and suggests that the nitric-oxide-modified SH group (S-nitrosylated SH group) is a prerequisite for the reaction.

Nitric oxide and nitric oxide-generating agents like 3-morpholinosydnonimine (SIN-1) stimulate the mono-ADP-ribosylation of a cytosolic, 39-kDa protein in various tissues. This protein was purified from human platelet cytosol by conventional and fast protein liquid chromatography techniques. N-terminal sequence analysis identified the isolated protein as the glycolytic enzyme glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH). Nitric oxide stimulates the auto-ADP-ribosylation of GAPDH in a time and concentration-dependent manner with maximal effects after about 60 min. Associated with ADP-ribosylation is a loss of enzymatic activity. NAD(+)-free enzyme is not inhibited by SIN-1, indicating the absolute requirement of NAD+ as the substrate of the ADP-ribosylation reaction. Inhibition of the glycolytic enzyme GAPDH may be relevant as a cytotoxic effect of NO complementary to its inhibitory actions on iron-sulfur enzymes like aconitase and electron transport proteins of the respiratory chain.
