The muscle enzymatic changes subsequent to 6 months of strength training followed by 3 months of detraining were examined in 21 physically active men. They were assigned either to a heavy-resistance (HR) or an explosive strength (EX) training program. Muscle biopsies were obtained from m. vastus lateralis for the assessment of activities of the enzymes hexokinase (HK), myofibrillar ATPase (ATPase), citrate synthase (CS), phosphofructokinase (PFK), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), myokinase (MK) and creatine kinase (CK). The activities were measured on freeze-dried tissue samples using fluorometrical assays. Both groups displayed increased (P less than 0.01-0.001) fast-twitch (FT) fiber area consequent to training with no concomitant hypertrophy of slow-twitch (ST) fiber area. Mean fiber area increased by 16% (P less than 0.001) in HR and 9% (NS) in EX. Following detraining, mean fiber area returned to pretraining value only in EX. HK decreased in both groups (P less than 0.01-0.001) and CK decreased in HR (P less than 0.05). When the two groups were treated together, all enzymes, except for LDH, decreased their activity (P less than 0.05-0.001). It is concluded that 6 months of strength training performed either as heavy-resistance or explosive training is not associated with any increased activities of enzymes reflecting phosphagen, glycolytic, or oxidative metabolism. Instead, the present results suggest that exercise-induced hypertrophy is accompanied by attenuation of certain enzyme activities of importance for ATP regeneration.

Decavanadate inhibits hexokinase, adenylate kinase and phosphofructokinase; neither mono-, tri nor tetrameric vanadate anion is an inhibitor. Decavanadate inhibits phosphofructokinase obtained from bacterial and protistic sources. No form of vanadium(V) anion inhibits galacto-, glycero-, pyruvate and creatine kinase, or inorganic pyrophosphatase. Decavanadate appears to be a non-competitive inhibitor of both hexokinase substrates.

The effect of physical training on the in vitro activities of key enzymes that provide quantitative information on the maximum capacities of anaerobic and aerobic metabolism has been investigated in the gluteal muscle of the horse. Training had no effect on the activities of 6-phosphofructokinase or creatine kinase, suggesting that there was no effect on the capacity of anaerobic metabolism in this muscle. However, the activities of hexokinase and citrate synthase were increased, indicating that training increased the capacity of aerobic metabolism. For comparative purposes, muscle fibre composition and enzyme activities were also determined in a group of foals and a group of broodmares.

The energy requirement for protein translocation across membrane was studied with inverted membrane vesicles from an Escherichia coli strain that lacks all components of F1F0-ATPase. An ompF-lpp chimeric protein was used as a model secretory protein. Translocation of the chimeric protein into membrane vesicles was totally inhibited in the presence of carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP) or valinomycin and nigericin and partially inhibited when either valinomycin or nigericin alone was added. Depletion of ATP with glucose and hexokinase resulted in the complete inhibition of the translocation process, and the inhibition was suppressed by the addition of ATP-generating systems such as phosphoenolpyruvate-pyruvate kinase or creatine phosphate-creatine kinase. These results indicate that both the proton motive force and ATP are required for the translocation process. The results further suggest that both the membrane potential and the chemical gradient of protons (delta pH), of which the proton motive force is composed, participate in the translocation process.

A decreased intracellular pH of exocrine glands could be an important factor in the pathogenesis of cystic fibrosis. Metabolic acidosis was induced in rats by adding ammonium chloride to the drinking water. An increased content of both total proteins and glycoproteins was found in the submandibular glands of the treated animals. The activities of the glycolytic enzymes - hexokinase, phosphofructokinase, pyruvate kinase and lactate dehydrogenase - were also increased in these glands, whereas the activity of creatine phosphokinase was unchanged. The changes of protein concentration and enzyme activities in the submandibular gland of acidotic rats agree with findings in patients with cystic fibrosis and cultured fibroblasts from these patients. The acidotic rat might be a new promising animal model for cystic fibrosis research. The finding of increased enzyme activities in acidotic rats is, however, contrary to findings in other animal models of the disease.

Tibialis anterior (TA) muscle of mouse, rat, guinea pig, and rabbit was indirectly stimulated for 10 h/day at 10 Hz up to 28 days. Changes in the activity levels of hexokinase (HK), phosphofructokinase (PFK), glyceraldehydephosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), creatine kinase (CK), citrate synthase (CS), malate dehydrogenase (MDH), 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase (HADH), and beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (HBDH) were compared. Although the direction of changes in the enzyme activity pattern was in accordance with previous findings on rabbit TA, the magnitude of the responses varied markedly between the mammals under study. Mouse TA was almost unaffected. A major effect of chronic stimulation in rat, guinea pig and rabbit was an increase in enzyme activities of aerobic-oxidative metabolism. According to intrinsic differences of the muscles under study, the increases varied among the species and appeared to be inversely related to the basal levels of these enzymes in the unstimulated muscles. Conversely, glycolytic enzyme activities (PFK, GAPDH, LDH) markedly decreased in rat, guinea pig, and rabbit, and were only slightly reduced in mouse. Changes in HK and HBDH activities displayed the largest variations in the induced change between species. These results indicate species-specific patterns of metabolic adaptation to increased contractile activity.

A system was created to model the influence of microcompartments on linked enzymatic reactions. Creatine kinase and hexokinase were covalently attached to Sepharose beads. The gel could be perfused in a specially constructed chamber inside a 360-MHz NMR spectrometer at different flow rates with solutions containing various concentrations of substrates. 31P NMR studies were carried out on the linked enzymatic reaction, creatine phosphate + glucose----creatine + glucose 6-phosphate in two enzyme gels differing in only one aspect, the average distance between hexokinase and creatine kinase. At a distance on the order of 0.1 mm between the enzymes, the average bulk concentrations of substrates and products in the perfusate determined the overall function of the linked system. At an average distance of the order of 10 nm, flux through the linked pair was much higher and much less dependent on the concentration of the intermediate substrate/product ADP/ATP. Even at adenine nucleotide concentrations far below the Km of hexokinase, substantial amounts of glucose 6-phosphate were produced when the enzymes were near but not when they were distant. From saturation transfer measurements and turnover calculations, the lifetime of ATP in the system is estimated to be 0.14-0.5 s when the enzymes are near. This compares to 6 s for distant enzymes. From this it appears that the pair of linked enzymes comprise a functional compartment supported by propinquity in which hexokinase has preferential access to ATP produced by creatine kinase, and creatine kinase to ADP from the hexokinase reaction.

A 34 year old man presented with an 8 year history of mild muscle pain and stiffness on exertion especially in the cold. Clinical examination was normal. Apart from a mild persistent leucocytosis, his routine investigations were normal including creatine kinase activity, electromyography and nerve conduction studies. An ischaemic exercise test produced a slow and incomplete rise in lactate. Histological examination showed non-specific myopathic changes in some quadriceps femoris muscle fibres. Investigation of muscle metabolism by spectrofluorometric analysis of muscle enzyme activity and by muscle fibre incubation studies revealed a severe defect in glucose phosphorylation, associated with an electrophoretically abnormal hexokinase. Further metabolic studies suggest that the block in glucose metabolism is by-passed via an enhanced phosphorylation of fructose by the abnormal hexokinase.

By means of reconstituted systems consisting in rat heart mitochondria and pyruvate kinase it was shown, that the mitochondrial ATP-production is remarkable increased if ADP is produced by enzymes localized in the mitochondrial intermembrane space as creatine kinase or adenylate kinase. This result and different amount of inhibition by atractyloside or carboxyatractyloside of hexokinase- and creatine kinase stimulated respiration further support the concept of dynamic compartmentation of adenine nucleotides in the mitochondrial intermembrane space.

Covalent coupling of protein by crosslinking reagents have been used to study the interaction of mitochondrial creatine kinase (CKm) and hexokinase (HK) with the mitochondrial membranes. The effects of crosslinkers were studied either by following the inhibition of solubilization of enzymatic activities or by modification of the electrophoretic patterns of proteins solubilized from mitochondria after treatment with different crosslinkers. Dimethylsuberimidate (DMS) efficiently reduced the amount of HK activity solubilized by various agents but it did not modify solubilization of CKm from mitochondria. The effect of DMS on HK solubilization did not result from non specific crosslinking since it did not impede the solubilization of adenylate kinase. Bissuccinimidyl another class of crosslinker has been tested. Ethyleneglycol bis (succinimidyl succinate)(EGS) efficiently reduced HK solubilization, but in addition it induced osmotic stabilization of mitochondria and thus impeded release of soluble or solubilized proteins from the intermembrane space. Furthermore this agent drastically inhibited CKm activity and thus, in a second set of experiments the effect of crosslinkers have been studied by the disappearance of protein bands in the electrophoretic pattern of soluble fractions obtained from mitochondria, the outer membranes of which have been ruptured to allow free release of soluble proteins. Results of these experiments showed that succinimidyl reagents and Cu++-Phenanthroline substantially reduced the amount of CKm released from mitochondria and confirmed that bisimidates were ineffective in inhibiting CKm solubilization. In addition crosslinking reagents have been used to study subunits interactions in purified CKm. Our results showed, in contrast with control experiments with a non oligomeric protein (ovalbumin) which did not give rise to polymers, that in the same conditions electrophoresis of crosslinked CKm resolved a set of species with molecular weights roughly equal to integral multiples of the protomer. These results proved that the polymeric form of CKm was an octamer.
