Polyclonal antibodies raised in rabbits to ATP-requiring enzymes such as 3-phosphoglycerate kinase show cross-reactivity against other unrelated kinases. Our results show that rabbit polyclonal antiserum possesses antibodies that recognize an antigenic site at the ATP binding region of kinases. A classical immunotitration curve was obtained when hexokinase was titrated against anti-myokinase IgG. The immunoinhibitions was reversed in the presence of small concentration of ATP. This cross-reactivity between site specific antibody and unrelated kinase demonstrates the existence of an antigenic site around the ATP binding region. Our proposal of the existence of a common antigenic determinant in the ATP binding region is in agreement with the finding of a common structural domain that binds ATP.

Under effects of myocardial ischemia (30 min), the activities of the intermembrane enzymes of rabbit heart mitochondria, i.e., adenylate kinase and creatine kinase, are inhibited by 20% and 23%, respectively. Consequently, the creatine- and AMP-activated respiration of mitochondria diminishes by 52% and 39%, respectively. An inhibitory analysis of ADP-, AMP- and creatine-activated mitochondrial respiration performed in the presence of atractyloside has demonstrated that ischemia (30 min), adriblastin (0.688 mM) and succinate (10 mM) cause alterations in the functional coupling of adenylate kinase and creatine kinase with the adenine nucleotide translocator. These alterations lead to the diminution of the rate and efficiency of energy transfer from mitochondria to hexokinase, as an arbitrary site of energy consumption. An addition of cytochrome c to ischemic heart mitochondria results in an increase in the rate of ATP synthesis; however, the efficiency of this process is lowered. The toxic effect of the anticancer drug--adriblastin on heart mitochondria respiration is enhanced in the presence of creatine in the bathing solution.

A new adenine nucleotide analog, [3H]pyridoxal 5'-diphospho-5'-adenosine (PLP-AMP), has been synthesized. The effectiveness of PLP-AMP as an affinity probe has been tested using a number of nucleotide-binding enzymes. In comparison to reaction with pyridoxal 5'-phosphate, PLP-AMP binds more tightly and exhibits greater specificity of labeling for most enzymes tested. PLP-AMP is a very potent inhibitor of yeast alcohol dehydrogenase and rabbit muscle pyruvate kinase, with complete inhibition obtained upon incorporation of 1 mol of reagent/mol of catalytic subunit. The reagent is also a potent inhibitor of yeast hexokinase and phosphoglycerate kinase. When modified in the absence of substrates, these enzymes require 2 mol of reagent/mol of active site for complete inhibition. However, when modified in the presence of sugar substrates, this stoichiometry decreases to 1.1 for the hexokinase-glucose complex and 1.4 for the phosphoglycerate kinase . 3-phosphoglycerate complex. The most potent inhibition by PLP-AMP was observed with rabbit muscle adenylate kinase. Half-maximal inhibition was obtained at a concentration of approximately 1 microM. In contrast to these examples, PLP-AMP, as well as pyridoxal 5'-phosphate, fails to act as a potent or specific inhibitor of beef heart mitochondrial F1-ATP-ase. The high specificity of labeling and the ability of nucleotide substrates to decrease the rate of inactivation of the kinases and dehydrogenase are consistent with the modification of active site residues. The complete reversibility of both modification and inactivation in the absence of reduction by NaBH4 and the absorption spectra of modified enzymes prior to and following reduction indicate reaction with lysyl residues. We conclude that PLP-AMP holds considerable promise as an affinity label for exploring the structure and mechanism of nucleotide-binding enzymes.

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 rate and efficiency of energy transport were examined in a system containing isolated rabbit heart mitochondria, hexokinase, adenylate kinase and low concentrations of adenine nucleotides. Oxygen consumption by mitochondria and glucose-6-phosphate synthesis by hexokinase were registered. It was found that when adenylate kinase is active both in mitochondria and in the environmental solution, the rate and efficiency (glucose-6-phosphate/O ratio) of glucose-6-phosphate formation considerably increase. The effects of adenylate kinase activity are fully abolished by diadenosine pentaphosphate, an inhibitor of adenylate kinase.

It has been proposed that hexokinase bound to mitochondria occupies a preferred site to which ATP from oxidative phosphorylation is channeled directly (Bessman, S. (1966) Am. J. Medicine 40, 740-749). We have investigated this problem in isolated Zajdela hepatoma mitochondria. Addition of ADP to well-coupled mitochondria in the presence of an oxidizable substrate initiates the synthesis of glucose 6-phosphate via bound hexokinase. This reaction is only partially inhibited by oligomycin, carboxyatractyloside, carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP) or any combination of these, suggesting a source of ATP in addition to oxidative phosPhorylation. This source appears to be adenylate kinase, since Ado2P5, an inhibitor of the enzyme, suppresses hexokinase activity by about 50% when added alone or suppresses activity completely when added together with any of the inhibitors of oxidative phosphorylation. Ado2P5 does not uncouple oxidative phosphorylation nor does it inhibit ADP transport (state 3 respiration) or hexokinase. The relative amount of ATP contributed by adenylate kinase is dependent upon the ADP concentration. At low ADP concentrations, glucose phosphorylation is supported by oxidative phosphorylation, but as the adenine nucleotide translocator becomes saturated the ATP contributed by adenylate kinase increases due to the higher apparent Km of the enzyme. Under conditions of our standard experiment ([ADP] = 0.5 mM), adenylate kinase provides about 50% of the ATP used by hexokinase in well-coupled mitochondria. In spite of this, externally added ATP supported higher initial rates of hexokinase activity than ADP. Our findings demonstrate that oxidative phosphorylation is not a specific or preferential source of ATP for hexokinase bound to hepatoma mitochondria. The apparent lack of a channeling mechanism for ATP to hexokinase in these mitochondria is discussed.

The effect of adenylate kinase activity on the rate and efficiency of energy transport from mitochondria to hexokinase was studied in a system containing isolated rabbit heart mitochondria, hexokinase and adenylate kinase at low concentrations of adenine nucleotides. Oxygen consumption by mitochondria and glucose-6-phosphate synthesis by hexokinase were recorded. It was found that with adenylate kinase being active both in mitochondria and in the washing solution, the rate and efficiency of glucose-6-phosphate synthesis considerably increases. The effects of adenylate kinase activity are fully abolished by diadenosine pentaphosphate, an inhibitor of adenylate kinase. The experimental results based on the use of adenylate kinase demonstrate the possibility of increasing the rate and efficiency of energy transfer between two spatially uncoupled biochemical processes in vitro with the aid of an enzymatic system.

Since organotin compounds represent an environmental health hazard, we determined the effect of triethyltin bromide (TTB) on red blood cell (RBC) enzyme activity. TTB produced a concentration-dependent inhibition of hexokinase and pyrimidine 5'-nucleotidase for both adult and cord RBC. D-Glucose, but not ATP or MgCl2, prevented the hexokinase inhibition by TTB. Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, adenylate kinase, and hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase were also inhibited by TTB. Cord RBC enzymes were more resistant to the effects of TTB than were adult RBC enzymes. Although TTB is a potent inhibitor of hexokinase, physiologic concentrations of glucose appear to protect the RBC during clinical tin intoxication.

Single fibers of rabbit fast-twitch tibialis anterior (TA) muscles were analyzed after continuous low-frequency stimulation for up to 8 wk. After 2-5 wk, every fiber showed higher levels of citrate synthase, hexokinase, and 3-oxoacid CoA-transferase than any control fiber; in some cases these levels were 2-10 times higher (well above any found even in the control soleus, a slow-twitch muscle). Average levels of malate dehydrogenase and alanine transaminase also rose dramatically, but peak single fiber levels were not much above the highest in controls. These differential effects confirm at the single fiber level that chronic stimulation can alter mitochondrial composition. Lactate dehydrogenase, fructose-bisphosphatase, and adenylate kinase declined to levels far below those of any control TA fiber, and, in the case of fructose-bisphosphatase, to within the activity range of control soleus fibers. According to their staining reaction for myofibrillar ATPase, TA fibers were initially 23% type IIA, and 74% type IIB, but by 5 wk these had been converted to a mixture of type I, IIA, and IIC fibers. At 5 wk, levels of lactate dehydrogenase, adenylate kinase, and malate dehydrogenase were characteristic of their (new) ATPase type, but 3-oxoacid CoA transferase had increased to levels 6-15 times higher than in control fibers of the same type.
