1. Clostridium pasteurianum was grown on a synthetic medium with the following carbon sources: (a) (14)C-labelled glucose, alone or with unlabelled aspartate or glutamate, or (b) unlabelled glucose plus (14)C-labelled aspartate, glutamate, threonine, serine or glycine. The incorporation of (14)C into the amino acids of the cell protein was examined. 2. In both series of experiments carbon from exogenous glutamate was incorporated into proline and arginine; carbon from aspartate was incorporated into glutamate, proline, arginine, lysine, methionine, threonine, isoleucine, glycine and serine. Incorporations from the other exogenous amino acids indicated the metabolic sequence: aspartate --> threonine --> glycine right harpoon over left harpoon serine. 3. The following activities were demonstrated in cell-free extracts of the organism: (a) the formation of aspartate by carboxylation of phosphoenolpyruvate or pyruvate, followed by transamination; (b) the individual reactions of the tricarboxylic acid route to 2-oxoglutarate from oxaloacetate; glutamate dehydrogenase was not detected; (c) the conversion of aspartate into threonine via homoserine; (d) the conversion of threonine into glycine by a constitutive threonine aldolase; (e) serine transaminase, phosphoserine transaminase, glycerate dehydrogenase and phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase. This last activity was abnormally high. 4. The combined evidence indicates that in C. pasteurianum the biosynthetic role of aspartate and glutamate is generally similar to that in aerobic and facultatively aerobic organisms, but that glycine is synthesized from glucose via aspartate and threonine.

1. Inhibition of ox liver glutamate dehydrogenase with N-(N'-acetyl-4[(35)S]-sulphamoylphenyl)maleimide (ASPM) is more specific at pH7.3 than at pH6.9. At pH7.3 inhibition accompanies the incorporation at 1 mole of ASPM residues into about 53000g. of protein. 2. Digestion of the modified protein with chymotrypsin and trypsin yields a unique radioactive peptide. 3. Acid hydrolysis of 1 mole of this peptide yields 1 mole of N(in)-succin-2-yl-lysine. The in-amino group of a lysyl residue is thus the site of modification of the protein. 4. The sequence containing the modified lysyl residue is: [Formula: see text] where Asx respresents either aspartic acid or asparagine.

Nitrosomonas europaea oxidizes ammonia to nitrite, thereby deriving energy for growth. Glutamate dehydrogenase (NADP+) (EC 1.4.1.4) is the main route for the incorporation of ammonia into glutamic acid, because glutamate synthase (NADPH)(EC 1.4.1.13) was not detected in cell-free extracts of N. europaea. Some properties of a partially purified glutamine synthetase (EC 6.3.1.2) have been determined, namely the effects of pH and metal ions, substrate requirements, Km and Ki values, based on biosynthetic and gamma-glutamyltransferase (EC 2.3.2.2) assays. The molecular weight of the enzyme preparation was approximately 440 000. The gamma-glutamyltransferase activity was markedly inhibited by alanine, lysine, glutamic acid, aspartic acid and serine and to a lesser extent by glycine, asparagine, arginine and histidine. Except for tryptophan and cystine, the gamma-glutamyltransferase activity was inhibited to a greater extent by these amino acids than was the biosynthetic activity. Different pairs of amino acids in various combinations resulted in a cumulative inhibition of enzyme activity determined by either method. Of the various nucleotides tested, the gamma-glutamlytransferase activity of the enzyme was inhibited to a greater extent by di- and triphosphate nucleotides--IDP, CDP, UDP, ITP, CTP, TTP and ATP (except GDP and GTP) than by monophosphate nucleotides except AMP. Saturating concentrations of pyruvate, oxalate, oxaloacetate and alpha-ketoglutarate depressed enzyme activity. Various combinations of amino acids with adenine nucleotides exerted cumulative inhibitory effects on the transferase activity.

The fluorescent nucleotide analogue 5'-[p-(fluorosulfonyl)benzoyl]-1,N6-ethenoadenosine (5'-FSB epsilon A) reacts irreversibly with bovine liver glutamate dehydrogenase and modifies one of the natural inhibitory guanosine 5'-triphosphate (GTP) sites [Jacobson, M.A., & Colman, R.F. (1982) Biochemistry 21, 2177-2186]. Enzyme with 1.28 mol of 5'-(p-sulfonylbenzoyl)-1,N6-ethenoadenosine/mol of subunit incorporated and exhibiting maximum change in sensitivity to GTP inhibition is now shown by amino acid analysis to contain 0.95 mol of O-[(4-carboxyphenyl)sulfonyl]tyrosine (CBS-Tyr) and 0.33 mol of N epsilon-[(4-carboxyphenyl)sulfonyl]-lysine (CBS-Lys), quantitatively accounting for the total incorporation prior to acid hydrolysis. As a function of time of incubation with 5'-FSB epsilon A, the amount of CBS-Tyr formed was directly proportional to the change in GTP inhibition. In contrast, an initial formation of CBS-Lys was observed, followed by relatively little additional CBS-Lys although the percent change in GTP inhibition continued to increase. It was concluded that the tyrosine is an essential residue in the GTP binding site of glutamate dehydrogenase, while the lysine modified is not involved in the inhibitory action of GTP. The nucleotide analogue 2'(3')-O-(2,4,6-trinitrophenyl)adenosine 5'-diphosphate (TNP-ADP) was evaluated for its ability to occupy the adenosine 5'-diphosphate (ADP) activator site and to function as an energy acceptor conjointly with 5'-SB epsilon A covalently bound at the GTP site as the energy donor. TNP-ADP activates native enzyme 2-fold and competes kinetically with ADP. As determined by fluorometric titration, the maximum number of TNP-ADP binding sites on native enzyme was 0.5 mol/mol of subunit in the absence and 1 mol/mol of subunit in the presence of reduced coenzyme. The 5'-SB epsilon A-modified enzyme also binds TNP-ADP: 0.5 mol/mol of subunit in the absence or presence of reduced coenzyme. TNP-ADP competes for binding with ADP to native and 5'-SB epsilon A-modified enzyme, indicating that this nucleotide analogue is a satisfactory fluorescent probe of the ADP site of glutamate dehydrogenase. An energy-transfer efficiency of 0.77 was determined from the decrease in donor fluorescence upon addition of TNP-ADP in the absence of reduced coenzyme to modified enzyme containing 1.23 mol of 5'-SB epsilon A/mol of subunit. A value of 18 A was calculated as the average distance between the GTP and ADP regulatory sites. This result indicates that the inhibitory GTP and the activatory ADP sites are close but not identical.

Differential digitonin extraction of rat liver mitochondria and of mitochondria of livers of affected and unaffected male sparse fur mice released a lysine transcarbamylase activity from the mitochondria at a digitonin to protein ratio in between that for myokinase and glutamate dehydrogenase, but at a slightly lower ratio than the ornithine transcarbamylase activity. Homocitrulline formation by isolated rat liver mitochondria is independent of the uptake of lysine by mitochondria as evidenced by the insensitivity of homocitrulline formation to changes in the matrix pH, in contrast to citrulline formation from ornithine. High-performance liquid chromatography separates the lysine transcarbamylase activity from the ornithine transcarbamylase activity. It is concluded that the lysine transcarbamylase activity is localized outside the inner mitochondrial membrane.

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.
