A single administration to rats of cyanamide (60 mg/kg, for 1 hour) was found to decrease the contents of cysteate, serine, glutamate, glycine, alanine, valine, methionine, isoleucine, tyrosine, ethanolamine, ornithine and histidine that may be considered as a manifestation on the drug hepatotoxicity. The activities of transaminases, glutamate dehydrogenase, pyruvate dehydrogenase remained unchanged. Cyanamide effects were considerably abolished by the supplementary ethanol administration (0.5 g/kg). Cyanamide failed to affect vitamin-dependent enzymes reflecting thiamine pyrophosphate, pyridoxal phosphate and flavine adenine dinucleotide status of the rat organism.

Both glutamate synthase (GOGAT) and glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) are involved in glutamate synthesis in Streptomyces coelicolor. The highest levels of GDH were seen in extracts of cells grown with high levels of ammonium as the nitrogen source. GOGAT activity was reduced two- to threefold in extracts of cells grown with good sources of glutamate. S. coelicolor mutants deficient in GOGAT (Glt-) required glutamate for growth with L-alanine, asparagine, arginine, or histidine as the nitrogen source but grew like wild-type cells when ammonium, glutamine, or aspartate was the nitrogen source. The glt mutations were tightly linked to hisA1. Mutants deficient in both GOGAT and GDH (Gdh-) required glutamate for growth in all media. The gdh-5 mutation was mapped to the left region of the S. coelicolor chromosomal map, between proA1 and uraA1.

Bovine liver glutamate dehydrogenase reacts covalently with 2-(4-bromo-2,3-dioxobutylthio)adenosine 5'-monophosphate (2-BDB-TAMP) with incorporation of 1 mol reagent/mol enzyme subunit and loss of one of the two ADP sites of native enzyme [S. P. Batra and R. F. Colman, J. Biol. Chem. 261, 15565-15571 (1986)]. Incorporation of reagent is prevented specifically by ADP. The modified enzyme has now been digested with trypsin. The nucleotidyl peptide has been purified by chromatography on phenylboronate-agarose, followed by reverse-phase HPLC. On the basis of amino acid composition following acid hydrolysis, and gas-phase sequencing, the modified tryptic peptide was established as Ala-Gln-His-Ser-Gln-His-Arg, corresponding to amino acids 80-86 of the known glutamate dehydrogenase primary structure. The evidence presented indicates that the target amino acid attacked by 2-BDB-TAMP is histidine-82 and that this residue is located within the high-affinity ADP-activating site of glutamate dehydrogenase. In the course of this work, it was found that the positions of Gln84 and His85 had been reported as reversed in the revised sequence of bovine liver glutamate dehydrogenase [J. H. Julliard and E. L. Smith, J. Biol. Chem. 254, 3427-3438 (1979)]. Three additional corrections are here reported in the amino acid sequence of the native enzyme on the basis of gas-phase sequencing of other peptides purified by HPLC: Asp168 (not Asn); His221-Gly222 (not Gly-His); and Glu355 (not Gln).

The arg-12 locus of Neurospora crassa encodes ornithine carbamoyl transferase, which is one of many amino acid synthetic enzymes whose activity is regulated through cross-pathway (or general) amino acid control. We report here the use of probes derived from the functionally equivalent arg-B gene of Aspergillus nidulans to identify and clone a 10 kb Neurospora DNA fragment carrying the arg-12 gene. Short Neurospora DNA probes derived from this fragment were used to identify a 1.5 kb polyA+ transcript of the arg-12 region. Arg-12 transcript levels increased approximately 20 fold under conditions of arginine or histidine limitation in strains having normal cross-pathway regulation (cpc-1+) but showed no such response in a cpc-1 mutant strain impaired in this regulation. Time course studies in cpc-1+ strains revealed a rapid response (within 10 m) of arg-12 transcript levels following inhibition of histidine synthesis by 3 amino 1,2,4 triazole, but a delayed response following arginine deprivation of an arginine requiring strain. In contrast to the behaviour of arg-12 mRNA, the level of the Neurospora am gene transcript (specifying NADP dependent glutamate dehydrogenase) was unaffected either by amino acid limitation or by the cpc-1 mutation. A possible role for the cpc-1+ product as a positive regulator of transcription of genes subject to cross-pathway control is discussed.

A highly conserved lysine at position 128 of Escherichia coli glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) has been altered by site-directed mutagenesis of the gdhA gene. Chemical modification studies have previously shown the importance of this residue for catalytic activity. We report the properties of mutants in which lysine-128 has been changed to histidine (K128H) or arginine (K128R). Both mutants have substantially reduced catalytic centre activities and raised pH optima for activity. K128H also has increased relative activity with amino acid substrates other than glutamate, especially L-norvaline. These differences, together with alterations in Km values, Kd values for NADPH and Ki values for D-glutamate, imply that lysine-128 is intimately involved in either direct or indirect interactions with all the substrates and also in catalysis. These multiple interactions of lysine-128 explain the diverse effects of chemical modifications of the corresponding lysine in homologous GHDs. In contrast, lysine-27, another highly reactive residue in bovine GDH, is not conserved in all of the sequenced NADP-specific GDHs and is therefore not likely to be involved in catalysis.

Photooxidation of bovine liver glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH, EC 1.4.1.3) in the presence of methylene blue at a low light intensity occurs in two stages. At the first stage, the duration of which depends on temperature and dye concentration, a slight activation is observed simultaneously with the oxidation of two histidine residues. At the second stage, the inactivation is concomitant with the oxidation of three histidine and one tryptophan residues. The inactivation is a first order reaction (k = 3,22 X 10(-2) min-1) and is correlated with changes in the circular dichroism spectra. These data testify to the structural role of histidine residues in the GDH molecule. The kinetic behaviour of GDH during its modification with diethylpyrocarbonate (DEP) depends on pH and the reagent concentration. Four histidine residues undergo carbethoxylation at pH 6.0 and 7.5, but the modification rate is much higher at pH 7.5. At low DEP concentrations, a remarkable activation is observed with a simultaneous modification of one histidine residue, which is independent of pH. At high DEP concentrations, a rapid inactivation takes place at pH 7.5. Treatment of the carbethoxylated inactive enzyme with hydroxylamine results in the deacylation of histidine residues without any noticeable reactivation. The data on the combined effect of DEP and pyridoxal-5'-phosphate suggest that GDH inactivation by DEP at pH 7.5 is a result of modification of an essential epsilon-NH2 group of lysine-126.

1. Glutamate dehydrogenase was inhibited by l-serine O-sulphate, beta-chloro-l-alanine, O-phospho-l-serine and beta-chloro-l-alanine methyl ester. With the exception of beta-chloro-l-alanine methyl ester which was an irreversible inhibitor, it was possible to reverse the inhibitory effects by dialysis. 2. Both NAD(+) and glutamate afford some protection against the inhibition due to the methyl ester. No change in the normal stimulatory effect exhibited by ADP was observed in the presence of beta-chloro-l-alanine methyl ester but the effect due to GTP was modified. 3. Irradiation of glutamate dehydrogenase in the presence of Rose Bengal produced rapid inactivation. Amino acid analysis of the inactivated enzyme showed that eight histidine residues had been destroyed in the process.

1. Glutamate dehydrogenase was subject to rapid inactivation when irradiated in the presence of Rose Bengal or incubated in the presence of ethoxyformic anhydride. 2. Inactivation in the presence of Rose Bengal led to the photo-oxidation of four histidine residues. Oxidation of three histidine residues had little effect on enzyme activity, but oxidation of the fourth residue led to the almost total loss of activity. 3. Acylation of glutamate dehydrogenase with ethoxyformic anhydride at pH6.1 led to the modification of three histidine residues with a corresponding loss of half the original activity. Acylation at pH7.5 led to the modification of two histidine residues and a total loss of enzyme activity. 4. One of the histidine residues undergoing reaction at pH6.1 also undergoes reaction at pH7.5. 5. The presence of either glutamate or NAD(+) in the reaction mixtures at pH6.1 had no appreciable effect. At pH7.5 glutamate caused a marked decrease in both the degree of alkylation and degree of inactivation. NAD(+) had no effect on the degree of inactivation at pH7.5 but did modify the extent of acylation. 6. The normal response of the enzyme towards ADP was unaffected by acylation at pH6.1 or 7.5. 7. The normal response of the enzyme towards GTP was altered by treatment at both pH6.1 and 7.5.

When grown autotrophically in a thiosulfate-mineral salts medium, cells of the facultative chemoautotrophic bacterium, Thiobacillus novellus, produced two distinct glutamate dehydrogenases, one specific for nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP) and the other specific for nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD). When glutamate was supplied exogenously as the sole carbon source, the NAD-specific glutamate dehydrogenase was fully induced. Lower levels of the enzyme were found in bacteria grown in l-arginine, l-alanine, glucose, glycerol, lactate, citrate, or succinate. Arginine, histidine, and aspartate, on the other hand, caused a marked repression of the NADP-specific glutamate dehydrogenase activity. The NAD-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase was allosteric. Adenosine-5'-monophosphate and adenosine-5'-diphosphate acted as positive effectors. Both glutamate dehydrogenases were purified about 250-fold and were shown to be distinct protein with different physical properties.

Mutant strains SU1, SU4, and US1 lacking glutamate synthase (GOGAT) activity were isolated from strains of P. aeruginosa for which histidine is a growth rate-limiting source of nitrogen. Strains SU1 and SU4 were unable to grow when a low concentration of ammonia and a variety of compounds, including histidine, were supplied as sole sources of nitrogen. A revertant of strain SU1, strain 39, produced no GOGAT but high levels of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase and had restored ability to grow on a limited number of nitrogen sources. Strain US1 grew at the same rate in histidine medium as did its parent; it was derepressed for glutamine synthase synthesis, and histidase was less sensitive to repression by ammonia than in the parent strain. We conclude that GOGAT is not essential for growth on histidine but high levels of glutamine synthase are required nd high levels of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase can sustain growth at low concentrations of ammonia in the absence of GOGAT.
