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.

Fructose-1,6-bisphosphate and triosephosphates have been separated by high performance liquid chromatography utilizing a SynChropack AX anion exchange column with 50-200 mM KH2PO4, pH 2.5-4.6 as mobile phase. The best resolution for each compound was reached in a system of 150 mM KH2PO4, pH 2.5. If radioactive fructose-1,6-bisphosphate as initial substrate was enzymatically converted in triosephosphates, the recoveries of metabolites after the precipitation and chromatographic procedures were higher than 95%. The concentration of radioactive 3-phosphoglycerate measured by liquid scintillation shows a good correlation (correlation coefficient: 0.997) with the spectrophotometrically determined concentration of NADH, which is formed from [U-14C]fructose-1,6-bisphosphate in equimolar concentration with 3-phosphoglycerate in aldolase and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase system. The method developed was applied to detect the inhibitory effect of triosephosphate isomerase on aldolase activity which takes place due to the heterologous complex formation.

Cytoplasmic beta-actin and five glycolytic enzyme cDNAs were isolated from a rat skeletal muscle cDNA library and together with a genomic clone of rat cytochrome c were used as probes to quantitate the respective RNA transcription rates in isolated nuclei run off transcription assays from stationary cells cultured under normal or 2% oxygen. The transcription rates of lactate dehydrogenase, pyruvate kinase, triosephosphate isomerase and aldolase increased by 2-5 fold during the 72 hr exposure to 2% oxygen. There was a small increase in actin RNA transcription while both cytochrome c and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase RNA transcription rates decreased. Since previous studies demonstrated an increase in steady state glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase RNA during low O2 exposure it is concluded that the level of this RNA is regulated post transcriptionally whereas the other four glycolytic enzyme RNAs are regulated at least partially at the level of transcription by oxygen availability. The relative transcriptional rates of the RNAs in this study are related to their cellular RNA and protein concentrations.

Binding of triose-phosphate isomerase (D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate ketol-isomerase, EC 5.3.1.1) to muscle myofibrils depends upon the concurrent binding of either fructose-bisphosphate aldolase (EC 4.1.2.13), glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.12) or both of these enzymes together. Thus triose-phosphate isomerase does not bind directly to myofibrils but to glycolytic enzymes already bound to the myofibril. This was established using 125I-labelled enzymes, which are required to provide the necessary sensitivity for the measurement of the complex multiphasic adsorption isotherms. In the presence of aldolase, the most stable stoichiometric relationship is two aldolase bound per triose-phosphate isomerase. The results show that not all sites of aldolase or glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase binding are available for triose-phosphate isomerase binding. Nevertheless, the results suggest the formation under particular circumstances of a minicomplex spanning the catalysis of fructose 1,6-bisphosphate to 3-phosphoglycerate. Such a complex could provide the physical basis of metabolic channeling in which metabolic intermediates are not released from the complex.

A steady-state kinetic analysis of the coupled reactions catalysed by the three-enzyme system, aldolase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and triosephosphate isomerase, was performed. The kinetic parameters of the progress curves of end-product formation calculated for noninteracting enzymes were compared with those measured in the two-enzyme and three-enzyme systems. Changes in the fluorescence anisotropy of labelled dehydrogenase upon addition of aldolase and/or isomerase were also measured. Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate oxidation catalysed by glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase in the presence of isomerase (which ensures rapid equilibration of the triosephosphates) follows single first-order kinetics. The rate constant depends simply on the concentration of the dehydrogenase, indicating no kinetically significant isomerase-dehydrogenase interaction. Fluorescence anisotropy measurements also fail to reveal complex formation between the two enzymes. The steady-state velocity of 3-phosphoglycerate formation from fructose 1, 6-bisphosphate in the reactions catalysed by aldolase and dehydrogenase is not increased twofold on addition of the isomerase, even though a 1:2 stoichiometry of fructose 1,6-bisphosphate/glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate is expected. In fact, by increasing the concentration of the isomerase, the steady-state velocity actually decreases. This effect of the isomerase may be a kinetic consequence of an aldolase-isomerase interaction, which results in a decrease of aldolase activity. Furthermore, the fluorescence anisotropy of labelled dehydrogenase, measured at different aldolase concentrations, is significantly lower when the sample contains isomerase. The decrease in the steady-state velocity of the consecutive reactions caused by the elevation of isomerase concentration could be negated by increasing the dehydrogenase concentrations in the three-enzyme system. All of these observations fit the assumption that the amount of aldolase-dehydrogenase complex is reduced due to competition of isomerase with dehydrogenase. The alternate binding of dehydrogenase and isomerase to aldolase may regulate the flux rate of glycolysis.

In order to provide information on the relative binding characteristics of glycolytic enzymes, the effect of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate (FBP) on the release of glycolytic enzymes from cultured pig kidney cells treated with digitonin has been studied. In the absence of FBP, a differential release of these enzymes was observed, with the order of retention being aldolase greater than glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase greater than glucosephosphate isomerase, triosephosphate isomerase, phosphoglycerokinase, phosphoglucomutase, lactate dehydrogenase, enolase, pyruvate kinase and phosphofructokinase. In the presence of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate, the release of aldolase was considerably enhanced, whereas the release of phosphofructokinase and pyruvate kinase was decreased by this metabolite. No significant alterations in the rate of release of the other enzymes was caused by FBP. These data have been discussed in relation to their contribution to the knowledge of the degree of association and order of binding between glycolytic enzymes and the cytoplasmic matrix.

Molecular probes for the oncogenes of Rous sarcoma virus (v-src), avian myeloblastosis virus (v-myb), Kirsten murine sarcoma virus (v-Ki-ras), and Harvey murine sarcoma virus (v-Ha-ras) were hybridized to the DNA from mouse-Chinese hamster somatic cell hybrids. The v-src, v-myb, v-Ki-ras, and v-Ha-ras genes each detected one or a few homologous mouse DNA fragments whose segregation was analyzed in cell hybrids. Mouse cellular homologs c-src, c-Ki-ras, c-Ha-ras, and c-myb segregated concordantly with chromosomes 2, 6, 7, and 10, respectively. Comparison with the known locations of human c-src (chromosome 20) and human c-Ha-ras1 (chromosome 11 short arm) suggests that the human and mouse homologs of these two viral oncogenes reside in conserved linkage groups. The c-Ki-ras gene on mouse chromosome 6 might reside also in a conserved linkage group, along with glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and triosephosphate isomerase. However, direct confirmation of this suggestion must await a demonstration that c-Ki-ras on mouse chromosome 6 is homologous to c-Ki-ras2 on the short arm of human chromosome 12.

A histochemical multi-step technique for the demonstration of phosphofructokinase activity in tissue sections is described. With this technique a semipermeable membrane is interposed between the incubating solution and the tissue sections preventing diffusion of the non-structurally bound enzyme into the medium during incubation. In the histochemical system the enzyme converts the substrate D-fructose-6-phosphate to D-fructose-1,6-diphosphate, which in turn is hydrolyzed by exogenous and endogenous fructose diphosphate aldolase to dihydroxyacetone phosphate and D-glyceral-dehyde-3-phosphate. The dihydroxyacetone phosphate is reversibly converted into D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate by exogenous and endogenous triosephosphate isomerase. Next the D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate is oxidized by exogenous and endogenous glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase into 1,3-diphospho-D-glycerate. Concomitantly the electrons are transported via NAD+, phenazine methosulphate and menadione to nitro-BT. Sodium azide and amytal are incorporated to block electron transfer to the cytochromes.

Spinach-leaf ribulose-5-phosphate kinase catalyzes the reaction of (Rp)-[beta, gamma-18O, gamma-18O]adenosine 5'-(3-thiotriphosphate) with ribulose 5-phosphate to form ribulose 1-[18O]phosphorothioate 5-phosphate. This product is incubated with CO2, Mg2+, and ribulose-bisphosphate carboxylase to form the [18O]phosphorothioate of D-glycerate. Reduction of this material using phosphoglycerate kinase/ATP, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase/NADH, triose-phosphate isomerase, and glycerol-phosphate dehydrogenase/NADH produces glycerol 3-[18O]phosphorothioate, which is subjected to ring closure using diethylphosphorochloridate. This in-line reaction produces a diastereoisomeric mixture of glycerol 2,3-cyclic phosphorothioates. 31P NMR spectroscopy was used to analyze the 18O content of the products. The anti-diastereoisomer, which is the major isomer formed and corresponds to the downfield 31P NMR signal (Pliura, D.H., Schomburg, D., Richard, J.P., Frey, P.A., and Knowles, J.R. (1980) Biochemistry 19, 325-329), retains the 18O label. This observation indicates that the ribulose-5-phosphate kinase reaction proceeds with inversion of configuration at phosphorus. The reaction is, therefore, unlikely to involve the participation of a covalent phosphoryl-enzyme intermediate.

We report a family in which six individuals were carriers of a translocation between chromosomes 8 and 12. The balanced carriers had a chromosomes constitution: 46,XX or 46,XY,t(8;12)(021;p13). Six individuals in five generations were mentally retarded. Three of them were examined; their chromosome constitution was 46,XX or 46,XYder(12),t(8;12)(p21;p13); thus they had a duplication of 8pter leads to 8p21 and possible deficiency of 12pter leads to 12p13. The activities of the enzymes that are coded by genes on 8p (glutathione reductase, GSR, E.C. 1.6.4.2.) and 12p (triosephosphate isomerase, TPI, E.C. 5.3.1.1.; lactate dehydrogenase-B, LDH-B, E.C. 1.1.1.27.; and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, G3PD, E.C. 1.2.1.12.) were normal in these individuals. These findings helped in interpreting the position of the break points in the respective chromosomes. The phenotypic findings in our patients are discussed. Segregation analysis indicates no significant variation from a 25% recurrence risk for each of the possible genotypes in the offspring of balanced carriers.
