NAD+ with a nitroxide piperidine ring linked to the NH2 group of the adenine possesses full coenzymatic activity with glutamate dehydrogenase. Electron spin resonance spectra in the presence of glutamate dehydrogenase show mixtures of free and strongly immobilized spin-label. Binding studies in phosphate buffer demonstrate: (a) weak binary binding to the enzyme with a dissociation constant in the order of 2mM;(b) an indication for negative cooperativity or different sites for binding to enzyme-2-oxoglutarate, with dissociation constants in the order of 20--250muM; (c) similar but much weaker binding to enzyme-2-oxoglutarate-ADP; (d) a strong positive cooperative binding to enzyme-2-oxoglutarate-GTP, dependent on the enzyme concentration. Binding of phosphate to the enzyme with a Kd of about 20 mM or binding of pyrophosphate or tripolyphosphate with a Dd of about 2.5 mM enhances the binding of spin-labelled NAD+ in the presence of 2-oxoglutarate. There is evidence that the binding sites for these phosphates coincide with phosphate binding subsites of GTP.

L-Pipecolic acid oxidation was studied in the rabbit and cynomolgus monkey. Tissue homogenates from both species incubated with L-[2,3,4,5,6-3H]pipecolic acid produced a single radioactive product identified as alpha-aminoadipic acid. In the rabbit, L-pipecolic acid oxidation was greatest in kidney cortex with progressively lesser specific activities in liver, heart, and brain. When rabbit kidney cortex was fractionated by differential centrifugation or on Percoll gradients, activity paralleled that of the mitochondrial marker, glutamate dehydrogenase. In sonicated mitochondria, 92% of the activity was in the soluble fraction. Activity was inhibited by both rotenone and antimycin A and was maximal when FAD, phenazine ethosulfate, and glycerol were included in the assay; Km,app was 0.74 +/- 0.16 mM. Nipecotic acid, piperidine, and cis-2,4-piperidine dicarboxylic acid did not inhibit L-pipecolic acid oxidation, while L-proline had a Ki greater than or equal to 10 mM. D-Alanine and kojic acid, substrate and inhibitor of D-amino acid oxidase, respectively, were also not inhibitory. When monkey kidney cortex was fractionated on Percoll gradients, L-pipecolic acid oxidation activity paralleled that of the peroxisomal marker, catalase. After organellar subfractionation, the activity was membrane-associated and maximal at pH 8.5; Km,app was 4.22 +/- 0.30 mM. L-Pipecolic acid oxidation produced hydrogen peroxide, suggesting involvement of an oxidase in alpha-aminoadipic acid formation. Antimycin A did not inhibit the reaction. No specific cofactor requirements were identified and phenazine ethosulfate inhibited the reaction. D-Pipecolic acid, L-proline, and the other compounds cited above did not significantly inhibit the activity.

It was shown that the blockage of epsilon-amino group of Lis-126 residue by 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-oxo-piperidine-1-oxyl (TMPO) leads to the cooperative inactivation of glutamate dehydrogenase (L-glutamate-NAD(P)-oxidoreductase, EC 1.4.1.3). The data concerning cooperative inactivation of the enzyme are interpreted by the model of hexamer with identical orientation of subunits. It was shown that the modification of any of enzyme subunits is accompanied by an inactivation of the hexamer's fragment which is a dimer, with subunits interacting reciprocally by means of isological contacts.

It has been shown that 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-oxo-piperidine-1-oxyl selectively blocks epsilon-amino group of Lys126 residue in bovine liver glutamate dehydrogenase (L-glutamate NAD(P) oxydoreductase, EC 1.4.1.3). Modification of this residue in one of the six promoters of catalytically active hexamer is accompanied by the loss of about half of the enzymatic activity. The enzyme inactivation caused by modification has a cooperative character.
