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.

1. The reaction of 4-iodoacetamidosalicylate with bovine liver glutamate dehydrogenase is dependent on pH. The pH-activity curve is bell-shaped and can be described by apparent pK values of 7.8+/-0.2 and 9.1+/-0.2. 2. Enzyme in which lysine-126 has been modified by 4-iodoacetamidosalicylate has unaltered sedimentation characteristics except when measured in the presence of GTP and NADH. 3. GTP binding to the inhibited enzyme is unaltered. However, GTP can no longer promote the binding of a second molecule of NADH, since this is already bound to the inhibited enzyme without GTP. 4. The equilibrium binding of ADP, GTP, NAD-sulphite and NADH (when measured at low concentrations) was largely unchanged by modification. 5. The number of binding sites for 2-oxoglutarate to the enzyme-NADH complex were decreased by 60% in an enzyme that has been inhibited by 70%.

1. One mol of diethyl pyrocarbonate will react with one mol of glutamate dehydrogenase polypeptide chains to form one mol of N(1)-carbethoxyhistidine. Reaction is prevented by NADH. 2. The 1:1 complex has an increased specific activity (1.4-2.0-fold). 3. The reason for the activation is discussed. The results are not consistent with NADH dissociation from the enzyme-glutamate-NADH complex being rate-limiting in the steady state measured. 4. The effects of modification on the properties of the enzyme were investigated. The effects of GTP and NAD(+) on the enzyme activity are unaltered by activation. NADH binding is unaltered and there is no apparent change in the molecular weight. However, the activated enzyme can still be further activated by ADP. K(s) for ADP is decreased fivefold.

1. The binding of NAD(+) and NADP(+) to glutamate dehydrogenase has been studied in sodium phosphate buffer, pH7.0, by equilibrium dialysis. Approximate values for the dissociation constants are 0.47 and 2.5mm respectively. For NAD(+) the value agrees with that estimated from initial-rate results. 2. In the presence of the substrate analogue glutarate both coenzymes are bound more firmly, and there is one active centre per enzyme subunit. The binding results cannot be described in terms of independent and identical active centres, and binding is stronger at low coenzyme concentrations than at high concentrations. Either the six subunits of the oligomer are not identical or there are negative interactions between them in the binding of coenzymes in ternary complexes with glutarate. The latter explanation is favoured. 3. The binding studies support the conclusions drawn from earlier kinetic studies of the glutamate reaction. 4. ADP and GTP respectively decrease and increase the affinity of the enzyme for NAD(+) and NADP(+), in both the presence and absence of glutarate. The negative binding interactions in the presence of glutarate are abolished by ADP, which decreases the affinity for the coenzymes at low concentrations of the latter. 5. In the presence of glutarate, GTP and NAD(+) or NADP(+), the association of enzyme oligomers is prevented, and the solubility of the enzyme is decreased; the complex of enzyme and ligands readily crystallizes. 6. The results are discussed in relation to earlier kinetic studies.

1. The decrease in the protein fluorescence (F) of Neurospora crassa glutamate dehydrogenase is linearly related to the increase in the fraction of the coenzyme sites occupied by NADPH (alpha) at pH6.35. Under these conditions NADPH causes this enzyme to dissociate to monomers. 2. There is a non-linear relationship of F to alpha for NADH binding to give the alcohol dehydrogenase-NADH-isobutyramide complex, the l-glycerol 3-phosphate dehydrogenase-NADH complex and the bovine glutamate dehydrogenase-NADH-glutamate complex. The non-linearity is accurately represented by F=[1-alpha(1-x)](n) where n is the number of NADH-binding sites per protein molecule. 3. The co-operative binding of GTP to bovine glutamate dehydrogenase in the presence of NADH gives a linear relationship between F and alpha. 4. The prediction from the equation F=[1-alpha(1-x)](n) that initial tangents to non-linear protein-fluorescence-quenching curves will intercept the fluorescence when alpha=1 at a value of total ligand concentration less than the sum of the concentration of binding sites in the solution plus the dissociation constant of ligand is quantitatively fulfilled. 5. Non-linear protein-fluorescence titrations may be used to obtain information about the distribution of ligand among the protein molecules in solution.

1. The reaction of glutamate dehydrogenase with N-acetylimidazole and with tetranitromethane leads to modification of tyrosine residues. 2. Modification of 1 tyrosine residue/subunit does not affect the enzymic activity but decreases the response of the enzyme to the allosteric inhibitor, GTP. 3. The physical properties of the enzyme (sedimentation coefficient and optical rotatory dispersion) remain unaltered. 4. GTP partially protects against desensitization. 5. The diminished responses of the modified enzymes to GTP are also detected by using the fluorescence of 1-anilinonaphthalene-8-sulphonate as a conformational probe. 6. Difficulties that generally arise in chemical modifications from inhomogeneous distributions of products are discussed.

A combination of kinetic and isotope effect studies in the presence and absence of the effectors ADP and GTP was used to elucidate the mechanism of regulation of bovine liver glutamate dehydrogenase. ADP at low concentrations of glutamate competes with TPN for free enzyme. GTP exhibits a similar effect at high concentrations (100 microM and above). When ADP binds at its allosteric site, it increases the off rates of both alpha-ketoglutarate and TPNH from their product complexes. This results in a decrease in V/K for both substrates, an increase in V, and an increase in the deuterium isotope effects for all three parameters so that they are all about 1.3. The rate of release of glutamate from E-TPNH-glutamate is also apparently enhanced since no substrate inhibition by glutamate is observed in the presence of ADP. The effect of GTP is in opposition to that of ADP in that GTP decreases the off rates for both TPN and glutamate from E-TPN-glutamate as well as the off rates for alpha-ketoglutarate and TPNH. This results in an increase in the V/K's for both substrates, a decrease in V, and a decrease in the deuterium isotope effects for all three parameters to a value of 1. Substrate inhibition by glutamate is also eliminated by GTP probably by preventing any significant accumulation of E-TPNH to which glutamate binds as an inhibitor.

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 effect of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate on the activity of ox liver glutamate dehydrogenase towards different amino acid substrates was investigated. Both alanine and glutamate activities decreased steadily in the presence of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate. The alanine/glutamate activity ratio increased as a function of inactivation by pyridoxal 5'-phosphate, indicating that glutamate activity is lost more rapidly than alanine activity. A mixture of NADH, GTP and 2-oxoglutarate completely protected the alanine and glutamate activities against inactivation by pyridoxal 5'-phosphate. The activity of glutamate dehydrogenase towards glutamate and leucine decreased steadily in a constant ratio in the presence of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate. The effect of leucine on the alanine and glutamate activities as a function of inactivation by pyridoxal 5'-phosphate was studied. The results are interpreted to suggest that the subunits of glutamate dehydrogenase hexamer are kinetically non-equivalent with regard to activity towards the two monocarboxylic amino acids as well as glutamate, and that all three substrates share the same active centre. However, leucine is also able to bind at a separate regulatory site.

Interaction of the electrolytically prepared dimers of nicotinamide adenine nucleotide, (NAD)2, and nicotinamide adenine nucleotide phosphate, (NADP)2, with lactate, alcohol, glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate, alpha-glycerophosphate, glutamate and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase has been studied using the quenching of protein fluorescence, kinetics of inhibition and the stopped-flow method. It has been shown that these enzymes are able to bind dimers preserving their coenzyme specificity. The most efficient binding of (NAD)2 has been observed in the case of glutamate and lactate (bovine heart) dehydrogenase, the dissociation constants being 6 and 8 microM, respectively. (NADP)2 affinity to glutamate and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase is also fairly high. More detailed studies on the interactions of dimers with alcohol and glutamate dehydrogenase have shown that the binding to the coenzyme binding site is the prerequisite for the association. However, some additional stabilizing interactions with other enzyme groups are not excluded, though (NAD)2 does not bind to the known binding sites of these enzymes, such as the substrate pocket of alcohol dehydrogenase and the regulatory binding sites for ADP and GTP of glutamate dehydrogenase.
