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.

Glutamate dehydrogenase from pig kidney has been purified to homogeneity by means of affinity chromatography on matrix bound Cibacron Blue F3G-A and gel chromatography on Sepharose 6B. The enzyme exhibits allosteric properties with the substrates alpha-ketoglutarate, ammonium, and NADH, respectively. GTP is a strong inhibitor which strengthened the cooperative interactions between the ammonium binding sites. ADP as an activator relieves the inhibition by GTP. Like glutamate dehydrogenase from bovine liver, glutamate dehydrogenase from pig kidney shows the ability of self-association, too. The sedimentation coefficient increases from 13.5 S at 0.07 mg protein/ml to 19.4 S at 1.32 mg protein/ml. In the sodium dodecylsulphate gel electrophoresis the enzyme migrates as a single band with a molecular-weight at 51000.

The theoretical and experimental analysis of a reversible association-dissociation equilibrium between different proteins (mixed association) is described. The experiments were performed with glutamate dehydrogenases from beef and rat liver. These enzymes are different, especially with respect to their association behavior. The association constant of rat liver glutamate dehydrogenase has been determined by light-scattering measurements. Its value (1.3 x 10(-4) M(-1)) is much lower than that of the beef liver enzyme, but the difference in the free association energy is only 30%. Association between these two enzymes is observed, also employing light-scattering experiments. Theoretical curves for mixed associating systems have been calculated and by comparison with these curves the mixed association constant could be determined. Since the free association energy of the mixed association is very near to the arithmetic mean between the values for the pure enzymes, the association interactions appear to be additive. The model of an open association with a virial coefficient is also true for the rat enzyme and the mixed association. The ultracentrifuge data are also explained by the same model and yield a similar value for the mixed association constant. Differences in the enzyme kinetics are small, but a somewhat reduced lifetime of the ternary complexes with the coenzymes and with subs-rates or GTP can be concluded for the rat liver enzyme. The circular dichroism measurements indicate no significant difference in the dissociation constants of the nucleotides, but the different amplitudes of the ellipticity indicate small differences in the electrical environment of the active center.

1. It is shown by limited tryptic digestion of beef liver glutamate dehydrogenase under native conditions that the amino terminus of the polypeptide chain is located at the surface of the molecule. End-group analysis after trypsin treatment yields aspartic acid as the new N-terminal amino acid while the C-terminal threonine remains unchanged. 2. NADH, especially in the presence of 2-oxoglutarate, protects the enzyme against tryptic degradation. In the absence of the coenzyme, glutamate dehydrogenase is rapidly inactivated. 3. The regulatory effects of ADP and GTP are only slightly altered by trypsin. A small shift of the pH dependence of the activation by ADP is observed. 4. The quaternary structure of the unimer of the enzyme is not affected by limited tryptic digestion indicating that the N-terminal part of the polypeptide chain is not located in the contact domains between the polypeptide chains. The association of the hexamer to large associated particles is reduced but not abolished. 5. It is shown by treatment of the enzyme with iodo[2(-14)C]acetic acid as well as with Ellman's reagent that the six - SH groups of the polypeptide chain are buried and not accessible to these reagents in phosphate buffer. In Tris buffer they become exposed and react in the order 89, 55, 197, 115, 270, 319. This together with the result that in Tris buffer the rat of inactivation caused by trypsin is higher than in phosphate buffer indicates that Tris buffer changes drastically the properties of the enzyme. 6. Cross-linking of the enzyme molecule with bifunctional reagents and subsequent dodecylsulfate-polyacrylamide electrophoresis shows that the six identical polypeptide chains are arranged in two groups of three. 7. The implications of these results for the tertiary and quaternary structure of beef liver glutamate dehydrogenase are discussed.

Glutamate dehydrogenase have been obtained in crystalline form from purified ox liver nuclear fractions. The enzyme appeared homogeneous, as judged by several electrophoretic techniques at two pH values. A comparative study with the widely known ox liver mitochondrial glutamate dehydrogenase revealed several common features, such as the allosteric effect of the nucleotides ADP and GTP, the activation at high concentrations of the cofactor NAD+, and the existence of a concentration-dependent reversible monomer-polymer(s) equilibrium. However, the two enzymes differed in many other respects. Inorganic phosphate activated nuclear glutamate dehydrogenase to a much greater extent than the mitochondrial enzyme; the substrate NH4+ showed cooperative homotropic interactions only with nuclear glutamate dehydrogenase; kinetic differences were detected with most of the reaction substrates, as well as different rates of oxidative deamination of other L-amino acids, the nuclear enzyme had a higher anodic mobility and a different chromatographic behavior on anionic exchangers. The latter evidence indicates that the glutamate dehydrogenase activity in liver is associated with two proteins which are structurally different, thus confirming the results of a separate immunological study. Preliminary evidence suggests that the enzyme in nuclei is attached to the nuclear envelope, probably the inner membrane, from which it can be solubilized by the addition of salts.

A new guanosine analogue has been synthesized, 5'-p-fluorosulfonylbenzoyl guanosine, which has an electrophilic moiety capable of reacting covalently with several classes of amino acid side chains found in proteins. This compound reacts with bovine liver glutamate dehydrogenase to desensitize it irreversibly to inhibition by GTP, without affecting its intrinsic catalytic activity. The specific addition of GTP or GTP and TPNH to the reaction mixture prevents the loss of sensitivity to GTP inhibition. The corporation of approximately 1 mol of 5'-p-sulfonylbenzoyl guanosine/enzyme subunit is associated with the decreased responsiveness of the enzyme to regulation by GTP. It is proposed that 5'-p-fluorosulfonylbenzoyl guanosine may be reacting within the allosteric GTP site of glutamate dehydrogenase and that this compound may have general applicability in the affinity labeling of regulatory and catalytic sites of proteins which normally bind guanosine nucleotides.

A new adenosine analog, 3'-p-fluorosulfonyl-benzoyladenosine (3'-FSBA), has been synthesized which reacts covalently with bovine liver glutamate dehydrogenase. Native glutamate dehydrogenase is activated by ADP and inhibited by high concentrations of DPNH. Both of these effects are irreversibly decreased upon incubation of the enzyme with the adenosine analog, 3'-p-fluorosulfonyl-benzoyladenosine (3'-FSBA), while the intrinsic enzymatic activity as measured in the absence of regulatory compounds remains unaltered. A plot of the rate constant for modification as a function of the 3'-FSBA concentration is not linear, suggesting that the adenosine derivative binds to the enzyme (Ki equals 1.0 times 10-4 M) prior to the irreversible modification. Protection against modification by 3'-FSBA is provided by ADP and by high concentrations of DPNH, but not by the inhibitor GTP, the substrate alpha-keto glutarate, the coenzyme TPNH, or low concentrations of the coenzyme DPNH. The isolated altered enzyme contains approximately 1 mol of sulfonylbenzoyladenosine per peptide chain, indicating that a single specific regulatory site has reacted with 3'-tfsba. the modified enzyme exhibits normal Michaelis constants for its substrates and is still inhibited by GTP, albeit at a higher concentration, but it is not inhibited by high concentrations of DPNH. Although ADP does not appreciably activate the modified enzyme, it does (as in the case of the native enzyme) overcome the inhibition of the modified enzyme by GTP. These results suggest that ADP can bind to the modified enzyme, but that its ability to activate is affected indirectly by the modification of the adjacent tdpnh inhibitory site. It is proposed that the regulatory sites for ADP and DPNH are partially overlapping and that 3'FSBA functions as a specific affinity label for the DPNH inhibitory site of glutamate dehydrogenase. It is anticipated that 3'-p-fluorosulfonylbenzolyadenosine may act as an affinity label of other dehydrogenases as well as of other classes of enzymes which use adenine nucleotides as substrates or regulators.

A new guanosine nucleotide has been synthesized and characterized: guanosine 5'-O-[S-(3-bromo-2-oxopropyl)]thiophosphate (GMPSBOP), with a reactive functional group which can be placed at a position equivalent to the pyrophosphate region of GTP. This new analog is negatively charged at neutral pH and is similar in size to GTP. GMPSBOP has been shown to react with bovine liver glutamate dehydrogenase with an incorporation of 2 mol of reagent/mol of subunit. The modification reaction desensitizes the enzyme to inhibition by GTP, activation by ADP, and inhibition by high concentrations of NADH, but does not affect the catalytic activity of the enzyme. The rate constant for reaction of GMPSBOP with the enzyme exhibits a nonlinear dependence on reagent concentration with KD = 75 microM. The addition to the reaction mixture of alpha-ketoglutarate, GTP, ADP, or NADH alone results in little decrease in the rate constant, but the combined addition of 5 mM NADH with 0.4 mM GTP or with 10 mM alpha-ketoglutarate reduces the reaction rate approximately 6-fold. GMPSBOP modifies peptides containing Met-169 and Tyr-262, of which Tyr-262 is not critical for the decreased sensitivity of the enzyme toward allosteric ligands. The presence of 0.4 mM GTP plus 5 mM NADH protects the enzyme against reaction at both Met-169 and Tyr-262, but yields enzyme with 1 mol of reagent incorporated/mol of subunit which is modified at an alternate site, Met-469. In the presence of 0.2 mM GTP + 0.1 mM NADH, protection against modification of Tyr-262, but only partial protection against labeling of Met-169, is observed. In contrast, the presence of 10 mM alpha-ketoglutarate + 5 mM NADH protect only against reaction with Met-169. The results suggest that GMPSBOP reacts at the GTP-dependent NADH regulatory site [Lark, R. H., & Colman, R. F. (1986) J. Biol. Chem. 261, 10659-10666] of bovine liver glutamate dehydrogenase, which markedly affects the sensitivity of the enzyme to GTP inhibition. The reaction of GMPSBOP with Met-169 is primarily responsible for the altered allosteric properties of the enzyme.

Bovine liver glutamate dehydrogenase reacts with the bifunctional affinity label 5'-(p-(fluorosulfonyl)benzoyl)-8-azidoadenosine (5'-FSBAzA) in a two-step process: a dark reaction yielding about 0.5 mol of -SBAzA/mol of subunit by reaction through the fluorosulfonyl moiety, followed by photoactivation of the azido group whereby covalently bound -SBAzA becomes cross-linked to the enzyme [Dombrowski, K. E., & Colman, R. F. (1989) Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 275, 302-308]. We now report that the rate constant for the dark reaction is not reduced by ADP or GTP, but it is decreased 7-fold by 2 mM NADH and 40-fold by 2 mM NADH + 0.2 mM GTP, suggesting that 5'-FSBAzA reacts at the GTP-dependent NADH inhibitory site. The amino acid residues modified in each phase of the reaction have been identified. Modified enzyme was isolated after each reaction phase, carboxymethylated, and digested with trypsin, chymotrypsin, or thermolysin. The digests were fractionated by chromatography on a phenylboronate agarose column followed by HPLC. Gas-phase sequencing of the labeled peptides identified Tyr190 as the major amino acid which reacts with the fluorosulfonyl group; Lys143 was also modified but to a lesser extent. The predominant cross-link formed during photolysis is between modified Tyr190 and the peptide Leu475-Asp476-Leu477-Arg478, which is located near the C-terminus of the enzyme. Thus, 5'-FSBAzA is effective in identifying critical residues distant in the linear sequence, but close within the regulatory nucleotide site of glutamate dehydrogenase.

Eel liver glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) [EC 1.4.1.3] was eightfold activated by trypsin and the molecular weight of the subunit of the native GDH decreased from 54,000 to 50,000. The C-terminal amino acid of both subunits was Thr. One peptide was released after proteolysis of the native GDH by trypsin and purified by anhydrotrypsin agarose and reversed-phase HPLC. The isolated peptide consisted of 39 amino acids and its amino acid sequence was as follows: H2NS-E-A-V-E-K-E-D-D-P-N-F-F-K-M-V-E-G-F-F-D-K-G-A-A-I- V-E-N-K-L-V-E-E-D-L-K-T-R-COOH. The peptide contained the N-terminal of the native GDH and its molecular weight was calculated to be 4,413. We concluded that the trypsin-catalyzed activation was caused by release of this peptide from the native GDH. p-Chloromercuribenzoic acid inhibited the activity of the trypsin-treated GDH, but stimulated that of the native GDH. The response of trypsin-treated GDH to ADP and GTP was decreased compared with that of the native GDH.
