The isolation is described of pure cultures of three non-methane-utilizing methylotrophic bacteria which, together with the previously described Bacillus PM6, have a very limited range of growth substrates; these organisms are designated "restricted facultative' methylotrophs. Two of these isolates, W6A and W3A1, grow only on glucose out of 50 non-C1 compounds tested, whereas the third isolate S2A1 and Bacillus PM6 grow on betaine, glucose, gluconate, alanine, glutamate, citrate and nutrient agar, but not on any of a further 56 non-C1 compounds. Crude sonic extracts of trimethylamine-grown and glucose-grown W6A and W3A1 isolates, and of trimethylamine-grown C2A1 (an obligate methylotroph) contain (i) no detectable 2-oxogltarate dehydrogenase activity, (ii) very low or zero specific activities of succinate dehydrogenase and succinyl-CoA synthetase and (iii) NAD+-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase activity. Extracts of trimethylamine-grown PM6 and S2A1 methylotrophs have (i) very low 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase specific activities, (ii) comparatively high specific activities of succinate dehydrogenase, malate dehydrogenase and succinyl-CoA synthetase and (iii) NADP+-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase activity but no NAD+-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase activity. The activities of most of these enzymes are increased during growth on glucose, alanine, glutamate or citrate, but only very low 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase activities are present under all growth conditions. The restricted facultative methylotrophs grow on certain non-C1 compounds in the absence of 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase and, in some cases, of other enzymes of the tricarboxylic acid cycle; these lesions cannot therefore be the sole cause of obligate methylotrophy.

Characterization of the energy metabolism pattern of the specialized heart muscle of bovine heart was studied in comparison with that of the ordinary heart muscle. Mitochondrial oxygen consumption of the specialized heart muscle was significantly lower than that of the ordinary heart muscle with succinate as the substrate. On the other hand, there was no significant difference in oxygen consumption between both heart muscles with glutamate + malate as the substrates. The activity levels of succinate dehydrogenase and lactate dehydrogenase were much lower than those of the ordinary heart muscle. The isozyme pattern of LDH of the specialized heart muscle consisted of one major component of LDH-1 (H4) and that of the ordinary heart muscle consisted of two major components of LDH-1 (H4) and LDH-2 (H3M). The ratio of NADH to NAD of the specialized heart muscle was remarkably lower than that of the ordinary heart muscle. These results indicate that the specialized heart muscle depends not only upon anaerobic metabolism but also upon aerobic metabolism for its energy supply.

Glutamate induced the synthesis of 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase 50-fold during anaerobic growth of Citrobacter freundii and, in the absence of glutamate, this enzyme was even more active in cultures sparged with N2/CO2(95:5, v/v). Enzyme synthesis was partially repressed when the inlet gas was passed through heated copper but totally repressed when the inlet gas was passed through alkaline pyrogallol and reduced benzyl viologen (a treatment which would remove CO2 as well as O2). Fumarate hydratase activity also decreased but alcohol dehydrogenase and the sum of the succinate dehydrogenase and fumarate reductase activities increased when residual O2 was removed from the sparging gas. Soluble cytochromes a1 and c552.5 were detected in rigorously anaerobic cultures. Thus traces of O2 which contaminate commercial compressed N2 are sufficient to induce 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase synthesis and to affect significantly the synthesis and incorporation of respiratory chain components into the cytoplasmic membrane.

Various mutant strains of Bacillus subtilis were used to study the induction and regulation of the transport of tricarboxylic acid cycle C4-dicarboxylates. L-Malate was the only physiological inducer and bromosuccinate was a gratuitous inducer of dicarboxylic acid transport in a succinic dehydrogenase deficient mutant. Several mutants were isolated with alterations in the ability to transport dicarboxylic acids. One of these (WK6) was defective in the ability to take up succinate when grown on glutamate minimal medium, whereas another (WK1) was inducible to high levels by extremely low levels of L-malate. Alpha-Ketoglutarate dehydrogenase mutants were unable to take up dicarboxylates because of repression of transport by glutamate and (or) alpha-ketoglutarate. A mutation which resulted in increased levels of alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase partially overcame this inhibition. Glutamate did not prevent the induction of dicarboxylic acid transport by L-malate in succinic dehydrogenase mutants but was markedly inhibitory in alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase mutants.

The regulation of alpha-ketogluterate dehydrogenase, succinate dehydrogenase, fumarase, malate dehydrogenase, and malic enzyme has been studied in Bacillus subitilis. The levels of these enzymes increase rapidly during late exponential phase in a complex medium and are maximal 1 to 2 h after the onset of sporulation. Regulation of enzyme synthesis has been studied in the wild type and different citric acid cycle mutants by adding various metabolites to the growth medium. Alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase is induced by glutamate or alpha-ketoglutarate; succinate dehydrogenase is repressed by malate; and fumarase and malic enzyme are induced by fumarate and malate, respectively. The addition of glucose leads to repression of the citric acid cycle enzymes whereas the level of malic enzyme is unaffected. Studies on the control of enzyme activities in vitro have shown that alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase and succinate dehydrogenase are inhibited by oxalacetate. Enzyme activities are also influenced by the energy level, expressed as the energy charge of the adenylate pool. Isocitrate dehydrogenase, alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase, succinate dehydrogenase, and malic enzyme are inhibited at high energy charge values, whereas malate dehydrogenase is inhibited at low energy charge. A survey of the regulation of the citric acid cycle in B.subtilis, based on the present work and previously reported results, is presented and discussed.

Histological and histochemical studies were carried out on the gastro-intestinal mucosa of three experimental cows (roughages/maize silage) and three control animals. The animals were slaughtered on termination of the long-term trial. Mucosa samples were taken, for further study, from the rumen, the duodenum, the jejunum, the large intestine and the appendix. Histochemical analysis did not reveal any essential differences in the activities of non-specific esterase, alkaline and acid phosphatase and lactic acid dehydrogenase in the mucosa of the rumen, the large and the small intestine and the appendix of both the experimental animals and the controls. The experimental animals were found to exhibit a higher rate of glutamate-dehydrogenase activity in the ruminal mucosa and in the mucosa of the large and small intestine. A higher succinate dehydrogenase activity was observed in the ruminal mucosa of the experimental animals, relative to that of the controls, while the activity in the intestinal mucosa was decreased. Only slight changes were noted in the activity of the enzymatic systems tested. Electron microscopic studies did not reveal any differences in the ultrastructure of the epithelial cells of the ruminal mucosa in both the experimental animal and the controls.

Six different lipophilic (hydrophobic) organic cations, tetraethyl-, tetrapropyl, tetrabutyl-, tetrapentyl-, tetrahexyl-, and tetraheptylammonium bromide, depressed respiratory control in rat liver mitochondria. Evaluation of mitochondrial responses in terms of a quadratic equation in log P (an index of lipophilicity) indicated that the NADH dehydrogenase receptor site for inhibitor (diminution of control of glutamate, alpha-ketoglutarate, and beta-hydroxybutyrate respiration) was more lipophilic than receptor sites for flavin-linked substrates (reduction of control of succinate, choline and alpha-glycerophosphate respiration). The succinate dehydrogenase receptor site for inhibition by the tetraalkylammonium bromides was more hydrophillic (less lipophilic) than the choline or alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase receptor sites. Depression of respiratory control may be a function of charge density and of lipophilicity at specific inner membranal sites and the susceptible site may differ for different respiratory substrates.

3-Nitropropionic acid (1 mM), which inhibits succinate dehydrogenase activity and reduces cellular energy, produces in the pyramidal cell layer of the hippocampal region CA1 a hyperpolarization for variable lengths of time before evoking an irreversible depolarization. Hyperpolarization is caused by an increased potassium conductance that is attenuated by glibenclamide (1-10 microM), a selective antagonist of ATP-sensitive potassium channels; in contrast, diazoxide (0.5 mM), an agonist at this channel, induces a hyperpolarization in CA1 neurons of rat hippocampal slices. The transient hyperpolarization after prolonged (ca. 1 h) application of 3-NPA is followed by a depolarization that is incompletely reversed by brief application of the glutamate antagonists (D-2-amino-5-phosphonopentanoic acid (APV), 6,7-dichloroquinoxaline-2,3-dione (CNQX), 3-(+/-)-2-carboxypiperazin-4-yl)propyl-1-phosphonic acid (CPP), 7-chloro-kynurenic acid (7Cl-KYN)). Early application of glibenclamide (within the initial 5 min) blocked or reduced hyperpolarization and accelerated the depolarization. These data suggest that metabolic inhibition by 3-NPA initially activates ATP-sensitive potassium channels. Events other than activation of glutamate receptors participate in the final depolarization resulting from uncoupling of oxidative phosphorylation.

Substantial disorders of redox and energetic processes are observed in the newborn calf tissues which is evidenced by changes in glucose, lactate oxalo-acetate, malate, citrate, alpha-ketoglytarate and glutamate concentrations, as well as in activity of lactate dehydrogenase and gamma-glutamyltransferase, succinate dehydrogenase and alkaline phosphatase and correlations of (NAD(p)/NAD(P)H) in blood cytoplasm and liver and kidney mitochondria.

The maximal rates (Vmax) of some mitochondrial enzyme activities related to energy transduction (citrate synthase, succinate dehydrogenase, malate dehydrogenase, NADH-cytochrome c reductase, cytochrome oxidase) and amino acid metabolism (glutamate dehydrogenase, glutamate-pyruvate- and glutamate-oxaloacetate- transaminases) were evaluated in non-synaptic ("free") and intrasynaptic "light" and "heavy" mitochondria from hippocampus of Macaca fascicularis (Cynomolgus monkey). The different mitochondrial populations were isolated from the hippocampus of monkeys treated p.o. with dihydroergocryptine at a dose of 12 mg/kg/day before and during the induction of a Parkinson's-like syndrome by MPTP administration (i.v., 0.3 mg/kg/day for 5 days). The MPTP administration modified the activity of some enzymes related to the metabolism of glutamate and the activity of succinate dehydrogenase on selected types of mitochondria. Pharmacological treatment by dihydroergocryptine promoted return to the steady-state levels of most enzymes, demonstrating a protective effect on these biochemical parameters.
