5'-p-Fluorosulfonylbenzoyladenosine (5'-FSBA) is a specific affinity label for the inhibitory NADH site of bovine liver glutamate dehydrogenase. Reaction of the enzyme with 5'-FSBA results in the loss of inhibition by high concentrations of NADH with covalent attachment of 0.53 sulfonylbenozyladenosine/subunit, i.e. modification of three subunits of the hexameric enzyme. Equal amounts of N epsilon-(4-carboxybenzenesulfonyl)lysine (Lys-(CBS] and O-(4-carboxybenzenesulfonyl)tyrosine (Tyr-(CBS] are found throughout the course of the reaction (Saradambal, K. V., Bednar, R. A., and Colman, R. F. (1981) J. Biol. Chem. 256, 11866-11872). Modified enzyme, prepared by incubating 2 mg/ml glutamate dehydrogenase with 0.3 mM 3H-labeled 5'-FSBA at pH 8 for 1 h, was carboxymethylated and digested with thermolysin. Two nucleosidyl peptides were isolated by a combination of chromatography on phenyl boronate-agarose, high-performance liquid chromatography in ammonium bicarbonate and high-performance liquid chromatography in trifluoroacetic acid. By comparison of the amino acid analysis and NH2-terminal residue of each isolated peptide with the known amino acid sequence of the enzyme, the peptides were identified as Leu-Gly-Arg-Lys(CBS) and Ile-Gly-His-Tyr(CBS)-Asp. These sequences correspond to residues 417-420 and 187-191, respectively. Lys-420 and Tyr-190 of glutamate dehydrogenase react with 5'-FSBA, and both are apparently located in the NADH inhibitory site.

The fluorescent nucleotide analogue 5'-[p-(fluorosulfonyl)benzoyl]-1,N6-ethenoadenosine (5'-FSB epsilon A) was shown previously to react at a GTP inhibitory site on bovine liver glutamate dehydrogenase. The incorporation was limited to 1.28 mol of reagent/mol of subunit and was attributed to 0.95 mol of modified tyrosine/mol of subunit and 0.33 mol of modified lysine/mol of subunit, quantitatively accounting for the total incorporation prior to acid hydrolysis [Jacobson, M. A., & Colman, R. F. (1983) Biochemistry 22, 4247-4257]. The specific tyrosyl peptide modified by 5'-FSB epsilon A has been isolated from a tryptic and chymotryptic digest of modified enzyme by gel filtration and reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography and characterized by amino acid and amino-terminal analysis. A unique residue, tyrosine-262, was identified as an essential amino acid within the GTP binding site. The stacked conformation of the fluorescent analogue when enzyme bound suggests that tyrosine-262 may be located in the region of the GTP site which binds the purine ring.

The data concerning the chemical and kinetic mechanisms of the glutamate dehydrogenase reaction have been reviewed. Based on the differences between two catalytically active glutamate dehydrogenase conformations induced by the substrates as well as on some other evidence, it has been proposed that the amino groups of lysine residues 27 and 126 in the beef liver enzyme are interchangeable depending on the direction of the glutamate dehydrogenase reaction.

The amino acid sequence of the NADP+-dependent enzyme ovine 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase has been determined by conventional direct protein sequence analysis of peptides resulting from digestion of the protein with trypsin and chemical cleavages with cyanogen bromide, hydroxylamine, and iodosobenzoic acid. The polypeptide contains 466 amino acids and its NH2 terminus is acetylated. The Candida utilis enzyme is inactivated by reaction of pyridoxal phosphate with two lysine residues (Minchiotti, L., Ronchi, S., and Rippa, M. (1981) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 657, 232-242). These residues are conserved in the ovine enzyme. In contrast to NAD+ dehydrogenases which have weakly related sequences and spatially related folds in their nucleotide-binding sites, no significant sequence homologies were detected between 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase and any of three other NADP+-requiring enzymes, glutamate dehydrogenase, p-hydroxybenzoate hydroxylase, and dihydrofolate reductase. This is in accord with structural data that show no spatial relationship between NADP+-binding sites in these enzymes.

When modified by 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-oxopiperidine-1-oxyl (TMPO) bovine liver glutamate dehydrogenase (L-glutamate NAD(P) oxidoreductase, E. C. 1.4.1.3) looses its catalytical activity and sensitivity to allosteric inhibitor GTP. The stoicheiometry of the binding of TMPO to glutamate dehydrogenase has been studied--each protomer bound one molecule of TMPO. It is supposed that TMPO reacts with lysine residue located in the enzyme's active center.

The initial velocity, pH and temperature optima, and Km values of Schizosaccharomyces pombe NADP-glutamate dehydrogenase (NADP-GDH:EC 1.4.1.4) have been determined. NADP-GDH was found to be specific for the substrates used in the reaction mixtures. NADP-GDH activity showed a sigmoidal response to changes in alpha-ketoglutarate concentrations, following Hill kinetics with a coefficient nH = 2. A two-fold and a three-fold increase in activity was found in extracts of cells grown on a medium containing cytosine or histidine as a sole nitrogen source, respectively, relative to the activity found in cells grown on other sole nitrogen sources including ammonium, adenine, arginine, aspartate, asparagine, glutamate, glutamine, leucine, lysine, proline, uridine and urea. Five NADP-GDH-defective mutants were isolated on the basis of no growth on ammonium plus allantoin as sole nitrogen sources. The mutants also failed to grow on allantoin alone but, in contrast, they were phenotypically indistinguishable from the wild-type growing on solid minimal medium with ammonium. Additionally, the mutants were found to grow as wild-type on minimal medium with alanine, arginine, asparagine, aspartate, glutamate, glutamine, leucine, ornithine and proline in the absence or presence of allantoin. In liquid minimal medium with ammonium as sole nitrogen source they had a slower growth than the wild-type. Normal growth was observed in cells grown on alanine, arginine, asparagine, aspartate, glutamate, glutamine, leucine, ornithine and proline. The mutants had undetectable levels of NADP-GDH activity, but retained wild-type levels of NAD-GDH, glutame synthase (GOGAT) and glutamine synthetase (GS).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

In previous transient state kinetic work from this laboratory, we proposed a new mechanism for the glutamate dehydrogenase-catalyzed oxidative deamination reaction involving an initial replacement of a proton from lysine 126 by a single bound water molecule, followed by closure of the active site cleft and expulsion of bulk water, providing a hydrophobic environment for the ensuing hydride transfer step. Here, we report the results of further transient state fluorescence, absorbance, and kinetic isotope effect studies, which demonstrate the occurrence of an unusual intermediate in the early steps of that reaction. This phenomenon is revealed by an initial fluorescence burst that occurs in the time period where the absorbance signal is still in its lag phase. Using an extension of the proton/product ratio approach we have described earlier, we show that this intermediate is a strongly fluorescent but weakly absorbing species whose absorption maximum is red-shifted beyond that of other known complexes of this enzyme. The transient state kinetic isotope effects of the fluorescence and absorbance signals are compatible only with a reaction scheme in which the formation of the fluorescent complex precedes the hydride transfer step. The optical properties of this enzyme-oxidized coenzyme-substrate intermediate strongly suggest that it is a charge-transfer complex, similar in nature to the complex responsible for the well known "Racker band" reported in 1952 for glyceraldehyde-3-phosphatase dehydrogenase (Racker, E., and Krimsky, I. (1952) Nature 169, 1043-1044). The crystal structure studies of the enzyme-coenzyme and enzyme-L-glutamate complexes of the closely analogous Clostridium symbosium glutamate dehydrogenase, reported by the Sheffield group (Stillman, T. J., Baker, P. J., Britton, K. L., and Rice, D. W. (1993) J. Mol. Biol. 234, 1131-1139), provide a basis for a physical explanation of the phenomenon. We conclude that the charge transfer phenomenon is caused by the near apposition of the unprotonated alpha-amino group of the substrate in a form of the enzyme in which a conformational change has caused the complete closing of the active site cleft.

The complete amino acid sequence of glutamate dehydrogenase from the archaebacterium Pyrococcus furiosus has been determined. The sequence was reconstructed by automated sequence analysis of peptides obtained after cleavage with cyanogen bromide, Asp-N endoproteinase, trypsin, or pepsin. The enzyme subunit is composed of 420 amino acid residues yielding a molecular mass of 47,122 D. In the recently determined primary structure of glutamate dehydrogenase from another thermophilic archaebacterium, Sulfolobus solfataricus, the presence of some methylated lysines was detected and the possible role of this posttranslational modification in enhancing the thermostability of the enzyme was discussed (Maras, B., Consalvi, V., Chiaraluce, R., Politi, L., De Rosa, M., Bossa, F., Scandurra, R., and Barra, D. (1992), Eur. J. Biochem. 203, 81-87). In the primary structure reported here, such posttranslational modification has not been found, indicating that the role of lysine methylation should be revisited. Comparison of the sequence of glutamate dehydrogenase from Pyrococcus furiosus with that of S. solfataricus shows a 43.7% similarity, thus indicating a common evolutionary pathway.

We introduce a novel transient-state kinetic approach which can resolve proton and product time courses into a series of individual steps that comprise the reaction path. We have applied this approach to the oxidative deamination reaction catalyzed by bovine liver glutamate dehydrogenase, measuring both the product (NADPH) and proton time courses at various pH values. The global treatment (over all pH values) resolves the very early portion of this reaction quantitatively and provides a continuous time course for each of the six protonic species. We propose the following mechanism: L-glutamate binds to an open conformation of the enzyme-NADP complex, forming salt bridges between its alpha- and gamma-carboxyl groups and the protonated forms of enzyme lysine residues 114 and 90, respectively. In this position, the alpha-H atom of the substrate is too far from the nicotinamide ring for hydride transfer to occur. In the next step, three events occur in a concerted manner: lysine 126 loses a proton and acquires a single water molecule; the active site cleft closes; bulk water is expelled; the substrate and coenzyme are forced closer together and remain in a nonaqueous environment during the ensuing chemical events, returning to an open conformation only in time to allow the product release steps to occur. Thus, substrate binding accomplishes a number of important tasks which are themselves an integral part of the catalytic mechanism. Combining the novel transient state approach developed here with steady-state kinetic information can produce a detailed mechanistic resolution of otherwise hidden steps.

We have solved the structure of the binary complex of the glutamate dehydrogenase from Clostridium symbiosum with glutamate to 1.9 A resolution. In this complex, the glutamate side-chain lies in a pocket on the enzyme surface and a key determinant of the enzymic specificity is an interaction of the substrate gamma-carboxyl group with the amino group of Lys89. In the apo-enzyme, Lys113 from the catalytic domain forms an important hydrogen bond to Asn373, in the NAD(+)-binding domain. On glutamate binding, the side-chain of this lysine undergoes a significant movement in order to optimize its hydrogen bonding to the alpha-carboxyl group of the substrate. Despite this shift, the interaction between Lys113 and Asn373 is maintained by a large-scale conformational change that closes the cleft between the two domains. Modelling studies indicate that in this "closed" conformation the C-4 of the nicotinamide ring and the alpha-carbon atom of the amino acid substrate are poised for efficient hydride transfer. Examination of the structure has led to a proposal for the catalytic activity of the enzyme, which involves Asp165 as a general base, and an enzyme-bound water molecule, hydrogen-bonded to an uncharged lysine residue, Lys125, as an attacking nucleophile in the reaction.
