Isolated membrane fractions of Escherichia coli K-12 yielded complex immunoprecipitate patterns when Triton X-100 and sodium dodecyl sulfate extracts were examined by crossed immunoelectrophoresis with antienvelope immunoglobulins. Twelve of the 46 antigens in the immunoprecipitate patterns of inner (plasma) membranes were identified by zymograms and/or by the use of specific antisera. The following enzyme activities were detected in immunoprecipitates: 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.43); adenosine triphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.3); glutamate dehydrogenase (EC 1.4.1.4), two separate components; malate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.37); dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (EC 1.3.3.1); succinate dehydrogenase (EC 1.3.99.1); lactate dehydrogeanse (EC 1.1.1.27); reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide dehydrogenase (EC 1.6.99.3); protease (EC 3.4.21.1); and glycerol 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.99.5). The corresponding immunoprecipitate pattern for isolated outer membranes consisted of at least 25 discrete antigens and differed strikingly from that obtained with inner membranes. Two major immunogens were identified as lipopolysaccharide and Braun lipoprotein. A protease-active immunoprecipitate was also detected in this fraction, but attempts to identify the Rosenbusch matrix protein in the crossed immunoelectrophoretic profile were unsuccessful.

Transitional steady-state investigations during changes in oxygen tension under aerobic and during aerobic-anaerobic transition conditions were carried out with the aim of finding an indicator system which separates the equilibrium from the non-equilibrium state. Of the parameters used i.e. biomass formation, CO2 production, Q02, NADH oxidase, succinate dehydrogenase, phosphofructokinase, glyceraldehyde-3 phosphate dehydrogenase, 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase and 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase, only the three enzymes requiring NADH or NADP for their function fulfilled the requirements. Biomass production and CO2 formation were useful only during the aerobic-anaerobic transition period. In each case the response was immediate and the indicator systems demonstrated that a new steady state of oxygen was always obtained after 11 h which, at the specific growth rate used, was equivalent to at least two volume replacements of the growth vessel.

In the presented study the influence of freezing and freeze-drying on enzyme activity is described. Attention is paid to 16 enzymes which can be used for quantitative enzyme histochemical techniques. With the exception of succinate dehydrogenase only, no significant inactivation during freezing and freeze-drying procedures could be demonstrated with lactate dehydrogenase, malate dehydrogenase (NAD+), malate dehydrogenase (decarboxylating) (NADP+), isocitrate dehydrogenase (NADP+), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase, NADH-oxydoreductase, mitochondrial glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, cytochrome c oxidase, phosphoglucomutase, glucosephosphate isomerase, glucose-6-phosphatase, acid phosphatase, beta-glucuronidase and non specific aryl esterase. Therefore, the results supply a sound foundation for those quantitative enzyme histochemical techniques in which tissue specimens are frozen or frozen-dried before enzyme estimations are performed.

Polyacrylamide-disc gel electrophoresis and quantitative enzyme assays showed that the pathways of glucose catabolism and secondary metabolism in Penicillium expansum were dependent on the degree of aeration of the cultures. The isoenzyme patterns and specific activities of aldolase and succinate dehydrogenase indicated that glycolysis and the tricarboxylic acid cycle operated under conditions of both limited and efficient aeration (i.e. in cultures grown statically or on an orbital shaker). At high levels of aeration the growth rate was faster and synthesis of extracellular pectolytic enzymes was enhanced, whilst the activities of glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase showed that the pentose-phosphate shunt was important in glucose catabolism during the trophophase of growth. In contrast, under conditions of low aeration this latter pathway was virtually undetectable, growth was slower, pectolytic enzyme production low and large concentrations of secondary metabolites (6-methylsalicylic acid, patulin and citrinin) accumulated.

In the subcommissural organ (SCO) of the guinea pig, rat, golden hamster, and mouse the activity and distribution of enzymes related to the energy-supplying metabolism and of some marker enzymes of different cell organelles have been investigated by means of mostly modified histochemical methods. The results were compared with findings in the ciliated ependyma of the ventricular wall and with those in the ependyma of the choroid plexus of the third ventricle. In the ependymal part of the SCO only a moderate activity of hexokinase is observed in its specialized columnar cells whereas a high activity is present both in the ciliated ependyma and the choroid plexus. - The staining pattern of glucose-6-phosphatase is similar to that of hexokinase but this enzyme is found is the SCO only. - Likewise hexokinase, glycogen granules and enzymes related to glycogen metabolism (phosphoglucomutase, uridine-diphosphoglucose pyrophosphorylase, glycogen synthetase and phosphorylase) are regularly found most numerous and active in the nuclear and supra-nuclear area of the ependymal part. These enzymes are less active in both the other ependymal regions. - Uridine-diphosphoglucose dehydrogenase could not be demonstrated in the SCO. The NADP-linked enzymes of the pentose phosphate shunt, glucose-6-phosphate and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase, show a moderate activity which decreases also from the nuclear towards the apical area of the ependymal cells of the SCO. Enzymes of the glycolytic pathway, such as glucosephosphate isomerase, fructose-6-phosphate kinase, fructose-I,6-diphosphate aldolase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate and lactate dehydrogenase, are highly active in the SCO and are located mainly in the supranuclear area, too. Fructose-1,6-diphosphatase could not be demonstrated thus indicating that in the SCO the pathway is most probably only glycolytic but not gluconeogenetic. Compared to the ependyma of the ventricular wall and of the choroid plexus, in the SCO the M type subunits of lactate dehydrogenase predominate. Glycolytic enzymes are also very active in the choroid plexus but less in the ciliated ependyma. Compared to the ciliated ependyma and especially to the ependyma of the choroid plexus, the activities of enzymes which are only present in mitochondria (NAD-linked isocitrate dehydrogenase, succinate dehydrogenase, NAD-linked malate dehydrogenase after preextraction, cytochrome oxidase, 3-hydroxybutyrate and glycerolphosphate and glutamate dehydrogenase) are relatively low. Mitochondria are accumulated near the superior pole of the nuclei as well as in the most apical part of the ependymal cells. - The staining pattern of NADP-linked isocitrate and malate dehydrogenase as well as of NADH dehydrogenase suggests that these enzymes are localized both in and out of mitochondria. The extramitochondrial activity of the first two enzymes might be localized in the cytosol. The extramitochondrial activity of NADH dehydrogenase might be localized in the endoplasmic reticulum...

The effects of unilateral nephrectomy (UN) and streptozotocin (STZ) diabetes on the activities of enzymes involved in uridine and cytidine synthesis in early renal growth (3-14 days after stimulus to growth) have been compared. Measurements were also made of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH) and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (6PGDH) and of glucose 6-phosphate (G6P), UDP-glucose, and glycogen, in relation to phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate, ribonucleotide, and complex carbohydrate formation. There were striking differences in the activities of CTP synthetase, G6PDH, and 6PGDH in the two conditions, with a three-fold increase in all three enzymes at 3 and 5 days and a two-fold increase above basal values at 14 days of STZ diabetes. The UN group showed no significant change in CTP synthetase at any stage and the activity of G6PDH and 6PGDH only kept pace with renal growth. Changes in routes of uridine synthesis were less marked, with a more rapid rise in carbamoyl-phosphate synthetase (glutamine) and a lesser response of dihydroorotate dehydrogenase in the UN relative to the STZ-diabetic groups. The enzymes of complex II and of uracil phosphoribosyltransferase showed essentially similar patterns during renal hypertrophy in UN and STZ diabetes. The parallel increase in CTP synthetase, G6PDH, and 6PGDH in the kidney in diabetes, also known to increase in growth situations in hepatomas and in renal tumors, is discussed in relation to hormone signals involved in renal growth. The importance of the concentration of CTP, and thus of CTP synthetase, in the CTP-cytidyltransferase reaction, an enzyme with a high Km for CTP, makes the present observation of the striking increase in CTP synthetase in STZ diabetes of particular interest in relation to phosphatidylcholine formation and hormone signal transduction.

In order to find the markers of the toxicity of the autoxidized lipids in the liver, rats were given a lethal amount of secondary autoxidation products of linoleic acid (400 mg/rat/day for 3 days) and then changes in the hepatic metabolic functions were analyzed. A decrease in acetyl-CoA level to half caused by the depletion of CoASH was reported in an associated paper (J. Nutr. Sci. Vitaminol., 35, 11-23, 1989). Citrate, isocitrate, and 2-oxoglutarate also decreased to half the level of those of the control group. Reduction in isocitrate dehydrogenase activity was only 25%, while NADH2 and ATP levels remained unchanged. Thus, the reduction in the citrate cycle activity was due to the decrease in acetyl-CoA. The activity of mitochondrial succinate dehydrogenase was decreased to 1/5. Other appreciable changes were depletion of glucose 6-phosphate and fructose 6-phosphate, accumulation of glucose 1-phosphate, reductions in hexokinase, phosphofructokinase, glucose-6-phosphatase, phosphoglucomutase, and phosphogluconate dehydrogenase activities, and decrease in the NADPH2 level. It was considered that these changes were caused by the depletion of glucose 6-phosphate whose synthetic pathways were abnormal. Therefore, the markers of the hepatotoxicity of secondary products were the changes in the CoASH level and the activities of succinate dehydrogenase and synthetic pathways for glucose 6-phosphate.

Within the uterine glands, the following enzymes were demonstrated by histochemical methods after 30, 58, 80, 100, and 110 d of pregnancy, respectively: beta-N-acetyl-hexosaminidase, beta-galactosidase, beta-glucuronidase, alpha-mannosidase, acid phosphatase, alkaline phosphatase, esterases, cytochrome oxidase, 5-nucleotidase, leucine aminopeptidase, adenosine triphosphatase, diaphorases (NADH, NADPH), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase, succinate dehydrogenase, isocitrate dehydrogenase (NAD, NADP), beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase, glycero-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, NAD-glycero-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, glutamate dehydrogenase (NAD, NADP), lactate dehydrogenase. The results show that the activities of G-6-PDH, 6-PGDH, and cytochrome oxidase increase within secreting cells during the 2nd half of pregnancy. The activities of the other enzymes remained almost unchanged during the period of investigation. The description of our results distinguishes between gland neck, middle, and distal part of the secretory unit, respectively. In general, the enzyme activities are similar within the middle and distal gland segments, but lower in the epithelia of the neck region. The activity of dehydrogenases was medium to intensive within the middle and distal gland segments, but only low to medium within the neck portion. Of the hydrolases, the acid phosphatase, ATPase, leucine aminopeptidase, and beta-galactosidase demonstrated an intensive activity within activity secreting cells. The enzyme activities of the gland epithelia are compared with these of the uterine surface epithelia and the histochemical results are discussed in context with their significance in histiotrophic nutrition.

Male albino mice were pair-fed a torula yeast-based selenium-deficient (Se-) diet containing 10 ppb selenium for 4 months, while a control group (Se+) received a similar diet supplemented with 330 ppb selenium as Na2SeO3. In addition to previously observed modulations of drug-metabolizing enzymes (Reiter, R. and Wendel, A. (1985) Biochem. Pharmacol. 34, 2287-2290), an increase of 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase activity and succinate dehydrogenase activity in liver by about 60% was found. In vivo, an increased 14CO2 exhalation from a tracer dose of glucose either labeled in the C-1- or C-6 position was observed in selenium-deficient mice. However, no difference in the total CO2 exhalation of Se(-)- as compared to Se+-mice was detectable. In line with the assumption that Se(-)-mice have an increased glucose turnover, Se(-)-mice exhibited a greater glucose tolerance when treated with an oral glucose load of 2.5 mg glucose/kg body weight. Also, the Se(-)-mice had a lower blood glucose level as compared to Se+-controls (89 +/- 3 versus 110 +/- 12 mg glucose/100 ml blood). Further in vitro experiments with red blood cells from Se(-)-mice showed that erythrocytes did not contribute to an increased CO2 formation from glucose via the pentose phosphate shunt. No significant differences between Se(-)- and Se+-animals were found in the profile of urinary metabolites, including ketone bodies and nitrogen excretion. These findings suggest a hitherto unknown involvement of selenium in specific regulatory sites of intermediary metabolism.

Muscle biopsies from six horses with clinical histories of muscle atrophy, muscle tremors, myopathic symptoms, unsteadiness of pelvic limbs and progressive ataxia were examined. Muscle biopsies were studied with enzyme histochemical techniques to evaluate the diagnostic values of these methods in cases suspected of suffering from neuromuscular disorders. Hypertrophy, atrophy, fibre splitting, waxy degeneration, phagocytosis and necrosis were seen in haematoxylin eosin stained sections of the different cases. Fibre type predominance and fibre type grouping were seen in the calcium ion stimulated myosine ATP-ase (Ca-ATP-ase) stained sections of some cases. 'Moth-eaten fibres' were demonstrated in three cases by staining with NADH: nitro blue tetrazolium oxidoreductase (NADH-TR), succinate dehydrogenase (SDH), NADH dependent malate dehydrogenase, cytochrome c oxidase and by lactate dehydrogenase. The catabolic enzymes, acid phosphatase (ACP) and 5'-nucleotidase were active in cases with fibre phagocytosis. The oxidative part of the pentose phosphate pathway in myopathic tissue seemed to be important in three cases, demonstrated by the increased activity of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (GPDH) and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (PGDH). The important feature of diseased horse muscle was that the pathohistochemical changes were exactly the same as in diseased skeletal muscles of humans. The application of tissue saving enzyme histochemical techniques can be recommended in the study of muscle tissue from horses suffering from suspected neuromuscular disorders.
