The activities of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (D-glucose-6-phosphate: NADP oxidoreductase, G6PD), 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (6-phospho-D-gluconate: NADP oxidoreductase, 6PGD), hexokinase (ATP: D-hexose 6-phosphotransferase, Hx), lactate dehydrogenase (D-lactate: NAD oxidoreductase, LDH). glutamate oxaloacetate transaminase (L-aspartate: 2 oxoglutarate aminotransferase, GOT) and dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) were measured at 8 a.m. in leucocytes of healthy individuals and patients with chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML), chronic lymphatic leukaemia (CLL), myelofibrosis with myeloid metaplasia and polycythaemia vera. In view of the heterogeneity of the leucocyte populations in these conditions, the enzyme activities were correlated to the number of immature cells in CML and to the percentage of lymphocytes in CLL. No differences in the enzyme activities were found between the white cells of healthy individuals, myelofibrosis with myeloid metaplasia and polycythaemia vera. In CML the activities of all enzymes except GOT correlated directly with the number of immature cells; an inverse correlation with the number of lymphocytes was observed in CLL. GOT was the only enzyme whose activity correlated with the number of lymphocytes in the cell suspension. Furthermore, a significantly higher activity of this enzyme was found in Ficoll-isolated CLL lymphocytes as compared to normal lymphocytes.

The effect of adenylic acid, glucose-6-phosphate, fructose-1,6-diphosphate and phosphoenolpyruvate on creatine kinase isoenzymes (brain extract, muscle and heart extracts and purified muscle enzyme) was studied. These effectors, especially phosphoenolpyruvate, are shown to inhibit in different degree the reaction of ATP formation catalysed by creatine kinase from all tissues. The effectors do not inhibit the creatine phosphate synthesis in extracts, but depress purified creatine kinase. The interrelationship of the creatine kinase system and the key glycolytic enzymes (phosphofructokinase, hexokinase, pyruvate kinase) is discussed.

In the subcommissural organ (SCO) of the guinea pig, rat, golden hamster, and mouse the activity and distribution of enzymes related to the energy-supplying metabolism and of some marker enzymes of different cell organelles have been investigated by means of mostly modified histochemical methods. The results were compared with findings in the ciliated ependyma of the ventricular wall and with those in the ependyma of the choroid plexus of the third ventricle. In the ependymal part of the SCO only a moderate activity of hexokinase is observed in its specialized columnar cells whereas a high activity is present both in the ciliated ependyma and the choroid plexus. - The staining pattern of glucose-6-phosphatase is similar to that of hexokinase but this enzyme is found is the SCO only. - Likewise hexokinase, glycogen granules and enzymes related to glycogen metabolism (phosphoglucomutase, uridine-diphosphoglucose pyrophosphorylase, glycogen synthetase and phosphorylase) are regularly found most numerous and active in the nuclear and supra-nuclear area of the ependymal part. These enzymes are less active in both the other ependymal regions. - Uridine-diphosphoglucose dehydrogenase could not be demonstrated in the SCO. The NADP-linked enzymes of the pentose phosphate shunt, glucose-6-phosphate and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase, show a moderate activity which decreases also from the nuclear towards the apical area of the ependymal cells of the SCO. Enzymes of the glycolytic pathway, such as glucosephosphate isomerase, fructose-6-phosphate kinase, fructose-I,6-diphosphate aldolase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate and lactate dehydrogenase, are highly active in the SCO and are located mainly in the supranuclear area, too. Fructose-1,6-diphosphatase could not be demonstrated thus indicating that in the SCO the pathway is most probably only glycolytic but not gluconeogenetic. Compared to the ependyma of the ventricular wall and of the choroid plexus, in the SCO the M type subunits of lactate dehydrogenase predominate. Glycolytic enzymes are also very active in the choroid plexus but less in the ciliated ependyma. Compared to the ciliated ependyma and especially to the ependyma of the choroid plexus, the activities of enzymes which are only present in mitochondria (NAD-linked isocitrate dehydrogenase, succinate dehydrogenase, NAD-linked malate dehydrogenase after preextraction, cytochrome oxidase, 3-hydroxybutyrate and glycerolphosphate and glutamate dehydrogenase) are relatively low. Mitochondria are accumulated near the superior pole of the nuclei as well as in the most apical part of the ependymal cells. - The staining pattern of NADP-linked isocitrate and malate dehydrogenase as well as of NADH dehydrogenase suggests that these enzymes are localized both in and out of mitochondria. The extramitochondrial activity of the first two enzymes might be localized in the cytosol. The extramitochondrial activity of NADH dehydrogenase might be localized in the endoplasmic reticulum...

The activities of six intra-erythrocytic enzymes--glucose-6-phosphate-dehydrogenase, aldolase, pyruvate kinase, hexokinase, triosephosphate-isomerase and phosphoglucomutase--have been measured in euthyroid probands (n=18) and in hyperthyroid patients (n=13) prior to radioiodine therapy and after stabilization of the metabolic conditions. The hexokinase, triosephosphate-isomerase, pyruvate kinase, and glucose-6-phosphate-dehydrogenase did not show any significant changes. A moderate diminution of the aldolase activity and a distinct decrease of the phosphoglucomutase activity occur during hyperthyroidism. After normalization of the metabolic conditions, both the enzymatic activities increase again.

1. The hemolytic effect of L-sorbose on canine erythrocytes characterized by inherited high Na, K-ATPase activity and a high potassium concentration (HK RBCs) was compared with that on normal canine erythrocytes (LK RBCs). 2. Dogs having HK RBCs (HK dogs) revealed no clinical and hematological changes after administration of L-sorbose, whereas normal dogs (LK dogs) developed severe hemolytic anemia associated with hemoglobinuria and marked decreases of erythrocyte ATP concentrations. 3. In vitro, L-sorbose induced hemolysis in LK RBCs along with the depression of both ATP and lactate formation in these cells, but not in HK RBCs. The inhibition of glycolysis by L-sorbose in LK RBCs, however, was not observed when glucose-6-phosphate was used as a substrate instead of glucose. 4. These results suggest that the disparity of susceptibility to sorbose-induced hemolysis may be due to the difference in erythrocyte metabolism between HK and LK RBCs, especially the high activity of hexokinase in HK cells, which was 2-fold greater than that in LK RBCs.

A highly sensitive FIA system for chemiluminometric determination of reduced coenzyme, NADH, was developed, using immobilized NADH oxidase from Brevibacterium ammoniagenes. The enzyme catalyzed the oxidation of NADH generating hydrogen peroxide which emitted chemiluminescence when mixed with luminol and potassium ferricyanide. The immobilized enzyme reactor was a mini-column, measuring 1 or 2 mm in inner diameter and 20 mm in length, and the sample volume was only 1 microliter per assay, with a feeding speed of one sample per min and a lowest detection limit of 10 pmol NADH. A FIA system was also developed for the determination of magnesium in human serum, using an enzyme column reactor with simultaneously coimmobilized hexokinase, D-glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, and NADH oxidase. The performance of the system was as satisfactory as a routine colorimetric assay, but with much higher sensitivity.

We previously reported that a 64-kDa protein (p64) in human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) was phosphorylated with [gamma-32P]ATP under a micromolar concentration of glucose in a cell-free system. The present paper presents the results of analysis of phosphorylation reaction and the identification of phosphoprotein. The findings that p64 was also phosphorylated with glucose-6-[32P]phosphate and that phosphorylation was inhibited with mannoheptulose suggested that the reaction was mediated by hexokinase. In fact, it was found that [32P]phosphate in glucose-6-[32P]phosphate was incorporated into either p64 or rabbit muscle phosphoglucomutase and that glucose-6-phosphate formation from glucose and ATP was detected in over 100-kDa fraction of PMN cytosol. These results showed that p64 was phosphoglucomutase in PMN and that phosphate incorporation into p64 was a conversion of a phosphate group in glucose-6-phosphate produced by hexokinase. It was further demonstrated by analysis of two-dimensional electrophoresis that p64 phosphorylated with glucose induction was different from another 64-kDa protein phosphorylated by stimulation with formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine in vivo.

The glucose analog, 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2DG), has been used widely for studying the initial steps in the metabolism of glucose by radio-isotope tracer methods and by 31P NMR. In the rat heart perfused with acetate/2DG (both 5 mM) plus insulin, trapping of phosphorus by 2-deoxy-D-glucose-6-phosphate (2DG6P) results in a steady state exhibiting high 2DG6P (55 mM) and low ATP concentrations but near-normal function, as observed in an earlier 31P NMR study. In order to understand how the 2DG6P concentration is stabilized, we studied the inhibition of a mammalian hexokinase by 2DG6P in vitro by a 31P NMR technique. Inhibition, previously unobserved, was found. It is similar to inhibition by G6P in that it is competitive with ATP and not competitive with 2DG, but the inhibition constant (1.4 mM) is much larger. The experimental protocol includes provisions for enzymatic destruction of stray inhibitors such as G6P. The results show that the high 2DG6P and low ATP concentrations found in the steady state of the perfused heart should strongly reduce the rate of phosphorylation of sugars by hexokinase.

During steady-state, the Pi released in the medium is derived from glucose-6-phosphate which continuously regenerates the ATP hydrolyzed. A membrane potential (delta psi) can be built up in submitochondrial particles using glucose-6-phosphate and hexokinase as an ATP-regenerating system. The energy derived from the membrane potential thus formed, can be used to promote the energy-dependent transhydrogenation from NADH to NADP+ and the uphill electron transfer from succinate to NAD+. In spite of the large differences in the energies of hydrolysis of ATP (delta G degrees = -7.0 to -9.0 kcal/mol) and of glucose-6-phosphate (delta G degrees = -2.5 kcal/mol), the same ratio between Pi production and either NADPH or NADH formation were measured regardless of whether millimolar concentrations of ATP or a mixture of ADP, glucose-6-phosphate and hexokinase were used. Rat liver mitochondria were able to accumulate Ca2+ when incubated in a medium containing hexokinase, ADP and glucose-6-phosphate. The different reaction measured with the use of glucose-6-phosphate and hexokinase were inhibited by glucose concentrations varying from 0.2 to 2 mM. Glucose shifts the equilibrium of the reaction towards glucose-6-phosphate formation thus leading to a decrease of the ATP concentration in the medium.

1. Activities of trout liver glucose dehydrogenase (GDH, EC 1.1.1.47) and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD, EC 1.1.1.49) were increased after a sudden drop in water temperature, but not in long-time cold acclimated as compared with warm acclimated trout. 2. Possibly, the activities of GDH and G6PD were temporarily increased in connection with metabolic adaptation to the lower temperature. 3. The activities of GDH and G6PD were not changed by the stress of handling. 4. Partially purified trout liver GDH has a lower activation energy with glucose than with glucose-6-phosphate as substrate, and the Km (glucose) decreases with decreasing assay temperature. 5. At low temperatures, the activity of trout liver GDH with glucose as substrate may be comparable to that of glucose-6-phosphate. 6. Partially purified beef liver GDH has a high activation energy with glucose as substrate, and the Km (glucose) does not change with the assay temperature. 7. Hexokinase (HK, EC 2.7.1.1) and GDH activities were unchanged when trout were deprived of food for 4 weeks. Apparently, the trout liver glucose utilization did not adapt to the starvation.
