The properties of seven enzymes were studied in extracts from Myxobacter AL-1. The enzymes were isocitrate dehydrogenase (E.C.1.1.1.42), succinate dehydrogenase (E.C.1.3.99.1), alkaline phosphatase (E.C.3.1.3.1), alpha-glucosidase (E.C.3.2.1.20), beta-glucosidase (E.C.3.2.1.21), beta-galactosidase (E.C.3.2.1.23), and N-acetyl-glucosaminidase (E.C. 3.2.1.30). Four of these enzymes: isocitrate dehydrogenase, alpha-glucosidase, beta-glucosidase, and beta-galactosidase are cytosolic enzymes. Succinate dehydrogenase was found to be located on the cytoplasmic membrane system, whereas alkaline phosphatase and N-acetylglucosaminidase were considered as enzymes which bind the outer membranes resp. the cell wall. During the cell cycle, all enzymes have a pattern of discontinuous activity increase. Succinate dehydrogenase and isocitrate dehydrogenase exhibit a stepwise increase of activity, whereas the other enzymes follow the pattern of a peak enzyme.

Eschscholtzia californica stigmas with germinating pollen at different stages of development were the subject of histochemical studies which aimed the localization of several enzymes like phosphorylase, leucine amino peptidase, nonspecific esterase, cytochrome oxidase, aldolase, alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase, succinate dehydrogenase, malate dehydrogenase, monoamine oxidase, alpha-galactosidase, beta-glucosidase and beta-galactosidase. Pollen and pollen tubes were shown to contain starch, lipid, proteins and soluble sugars as the storage products. These storage products were utilized during germination and tube growth. The role of different enzymes in the process of germination and tube growth is discussed. From the distribution of oxidoreductases it is inferred that respiration plays an essential role in the tube growth. During pollen germination probably the reserve proteins were transported to pollen tube tip. The increase of activity of alpha-and beta-galactosidase in pollen tubes indicates on their involvement in carbohydrate metabolism. The role of alpha-galactosidase in the metabolism of galactolipids is also inferred. Similarly, the reaction catalysed by beta-glucosidase resulted in the production of aglycon and glucose; of these the former possibly act as a substrate of peroxidase. Some of the glycosidases diffused out of pollen wall on the stigma and participated in the release of free sugars of the female tissue.

Dynamics of 5 marker enzymes activity from subcellular particles--succinate dehydrogenase, beta-glucosidase, arylsulphatases A and B, acid RNAase and glucose-6-phosphatase--were studied in liver, spleen, thymus and blood serum of rats after single intragastric administration of T-2 toxin at a dose of 3.8 mg/kg (LD50). The acute intoxication was accompanied by an early (within 1-3 hrs) and significant reduction of total proteins in the tissues studied. Distinct tissue- and organelle-tropic effects of T-2 toxin were found: the toxin induced a gradual decrease in activity of the enzymes studied in liver tissue, while selective activation of lysosomal hydrolases was observed in spleen and thymus tissues. The selective effect of T-2 toxin on spleen and thymus lysosomal hydrolases appear to be involved in the mechanism of action of the toxin.

The time-course of the ultrastructural changes and activities of 6 marker enzymes of subcellular particles (succinate dehydrogenase, beta-glucosidase, beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase, acid RNAse, glucose-6-phosphatase and 5'-nucleotidase) has been studied in the liver, spleen and thymus in rats administered T-2 toxin (mycotoxin produced by some Fusarium species). A pronounced difference in the effect of T-2 toxin on the organs has been found. In the liver, the toxin induced a destruction of rough endoplasmic reticulum membranes, reduced ribosome number and progressively decreased activities of most enzymes. In the spleen, early and significant ultrastructural disturbances of all the cell membrane components and simultaneous lysosomal activation were observed. The changes in the thymus were characterized by a fast development of cell hydratation, organelle swelling and necrosis of some thymocytes with parallel increase in repair processes, infiltration by phagocytes and a selective activation of lysosomal hydrolases in the end of experimental time (72 h.). The results obtained emphasize an importance of cellular and subcellular membrane alterations in the mechanism of T-2 toxin action.

The outer membrane (OM) of Fibrobacter succinogenes was isolated by a combination of salt, sucrose, and water washes from whole cells grown on either glucose or cellulose. The cytoplasmic membrane (CM) was isolated from OM-depleted cells after disruption with a French press. The OM and membrane vesicles isolated from the extracellular culture fluid of cellulose-grown cells had a higher density, much lower succinate dehydrogenase activity, and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis protein profiles different from those of the CM. The OM from both glucose- and cellulose-grown cells and the extracellular membrane vesicles from cellulose-grown cultures exhibited higher endoglucanase, xylanase, and acetylesterase activities than the CM and other cell fractions. Endoglucanase 2 was absent from the isolated OM fractions of glucose- and cellulose-grown cells and from the extracellular membrane vesicles of cellulose-grown cells but was present in the CM and intracellular glycogen granule fractions, while endoglucanase 3 was enriched in the OM. Cellobiosidase was located primarily in the periplasm as previously reported, while cellobiase was mainly present in the glycogen granule fraction of glucose-grown cells and in a nongranular glycogen and CM complex in cellulose-grown cells. The cellobiase was not eluted from glycogen granules by cellobiose, maltose, and maltotriose nor from either the granules or the cell membranes by nondenaturing detergents but was eluted from both glycogen granules and cell membranes by high concentrations of salts. The eluted cellobiase rebound almost quantitatively when diluted and mixed with purified glycogen granules but exhibited a low affinity for Avicel cellulose. Thus, we have documented a method for isolation of OM from F. succinogenes, identified the OM origin of the extracellular membrane vesicles, and located glycanases and cellobiase in membrane and glycogen fractions.

We studied the mechanism of growth-stimulating effect of various compounds using an exogenous RNase-micromycete model and found that the treatment with microdoses of RNase intensified the reproduction of the yeast Candida valida and growth of Aspergillus fumigatus. At the same time the respiration activity of yeast cells and fungal mitochondria as well as succinate dehydrogenase activity increased. The secretion of total protein, cellulase and cellobiase changed in the presence of RNase in the growth medium. Electrophoretic mobility of Candida valida cells enhanced by 20%. The RNase stimulating effect on microbial cells seems to result from changes in characteristics of the cell surface.

The incubation of pea seedling roots with the surface agglutinins R1 and R2 of Rhizobium leguminosarum 252 brought about an increase in the activity of proteases, beta-glucosidase, and, especially, succinate dehydrogenase in the roots. The data presented show that rhizobial agglutinins play an important part in the formation and functioning of legume-rhizobial associations.
