It is determined that ortho- and n-nitrophenol introduced into the stomach (0.80 and 0.11 g/kg, respectively) inhibit the activity of cytochrome oxydase (by 21% at an average), cause an increase in the content of NADH (by 35 and 27%) and a decrease in ATP (by 38 and 36%, respectively), split the oxidation and phosphorylation processes in the rat liver tissue. The content of NAD+, AMP and ADP, lactate, the activity of K+, Na+-ATPase and lactate dehydrogenase do not change.

When photosynthetic membranes from Rhodospirillum rubrum, devoid of loosely bound small molecules and proteins, were passed through a French-pressure cell, the enzyme adenosine-5'-triphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.3.) (ATPase) was released into the soluble fraction. The solubilized ATPase was purified to homogeneity. In many respects it behaved like the enzyme purified by other workers, but it also hydrolyzed Mg-ATP with a small, but significant rate. Furthermore, it was much more stable. Maximal restoration of photophosphorylation in ATPase-depleted membranes was achieved by addition of about 1 mg purified ATPase per mg bacteriochlorophyll. For reconstitution of NAD+-photoreduction, about half of this amount was saturating.

The content of coenzyme A-SH (CoASH) and acetyl-CoA of suspensions of rat heart mitochondria was stabilized by the addition of DL-carnitine and acetyl-DL-carnitine, in the presence of the respiratory inhibitor rotenone. The mitochondrial content of NAD+ and NADH was similarly stabilized by the addition of acetoacetate and DL-3-hydroxybutyrate, and the content of ADP and ATP was imposed by the addition of these nucleotides to the mitochondrial suspension, in the presence of uncoupling agent and oligomycin, to inhibit ATPase. Under these conditions, mitochondrial CoASH/acetyl-CoA, NAD+/ NADH, and ADP/ATP ratios could be varied independently, and the effect on the interconversion of active and inactive pyruvate dehydrogenase could be studied. Decreases in both CoASH/acetyl-CoA and NAD+/NADH ratios were shown to be inhibitory to the steady state activity of pyruvate dehydrogenase, and this effect is described at three different ADP/ATP ratios and different concentrations of added MgCl2. A new steady state level of activity was achieved within 10 min of a change in either CoASH/acetyl-CoA or NAD+/NADH ratio; the rate of inactivation was much higher than the rate of reactivation under these conditions. Effects of CoASH/acetyl-CoA and NAD+/NADH may be additive but are still quantitatively lesser than the changes in activity of pyruvate dehydrogenase induced by changes in ADP/ATP ratio. The variation in activity of pyruvate dehydrogenase with ADP/ATP ratio is described in the absence of changes in the other two ratios, conditions which were not met in earlier studies which employed the oxidation of different substrates to generate changes in all three ratios.

We have screened the bloodstream form of Trypanosoma brucei for the presence of enzymes that could serve as markers for the microbodies and the highly repressed mitochondrion of this organism. None of seven known microbody enzymes were detected at all, but glycerol-3-phosphate oxidase, ATPase, isocitrate dehydrogenase, acid phosphatase and part of the hyperoxide dismutase and malate dehydrogenase activities were found to be particle-bound after fractionation of homogenates by differential centrifugation. Part of the ATPase activity was sensitive to oligomycin, an inhibitor of oxidative phosphorylation. This oligomycin-sensitive activity can serve as a specific marker for the mitochondria. More than 80% of the NAD+-linked glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase in T. brucei was found to be particulate and latent. The enzyme could be activated by Triton X-100, by the combined action of sonication and salt, but not by salt alone, and partially by freezing and thawing. We conclude that the NAD+-linked glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase is located inside an organelle.

A mathematical model of the glycolytic system with the cytoplasmic coenzymes NAD+ and NADH as essential variables is proposed. It has been shown that any increase in the steady-state concentration of NADH will reduce the range of activity of the "generalized" ATPase, wherein the level of ATP is stabilized. Such a reduction in the range of ATP stabilization may be caused by an increasing rate of the pyruvate loss into non-glycolytic pathways, in particular, into mitochondria. This effect may be compensated by increasing oxidation of NADH by the dehydrogenases of H+-transferring cytosol-mitochondrial shuttles (malate-aspartate or alpha-glycerophosphate). The properties of the complete model were compared with those of its simplified version, which takes account only of the phosphotransferase reactions of glycolysis. The effects of various factors, which do not alter the level of NADH in the system, may be studied within the scope of the simplified model.

The ontogeny of some of the enzymes connected with carbohydrate metabolism in the testis were studied in the White-Rock chicks. In the first place testicular growth in these chicks relate to their overall growth as measured by their body weights. ATPase and NAD+-dependent succinic dehydrogenase activities decreased both with advancing age and increasing testicular weight. However, these enzymes showed maximum activities at 17 and 28 weeks respectively. NAD+-linked isocitric dehydrogenase activity continually increased with increasing testicular weight and age. It is suggested that during spermatogenesis the activities of these enzymes are controlled by different developmental mechanisms.

1. The interaction of NAD+, NADH and various nucleotide analogues with pig kidney alkaline phosphatase (orthophosphoric-monoester phosphohydrolase (alkaline optimum) EC 3.1.3.1) has been investigated by kinetic means. Some inhibitors act uncompetitively whereas others markedly increase the slopes of double reciprocal plots suggesting they have some affinity for the free enzyme. 2. The compounds seem to bind to alkaline phosphatase through interactions of their bases with a relatively non-specific region of the enzyme, although it is likely that for those nucleotides having some affinity for the free enzyme there is some attraction between the pyrophosphate backbone and the active site. 3. From studies of the effect of NAD+ and NADH on ATPase activity it was concluded that the substrate inhibition that is characteristic of the ATPase activity of alkaline phosphatase originates from binding of ATP to the site assumed to exist for NAD+ and NADH. The potentiation of NAD+-inhibition of ATPase activity by Mg-2+ is probably a result of the depletion of [ATP-4-] the true substrate. The depletion allows NAD+ to complete more effectively for the active site. 4. Binding of NADH is favoured by protonation of an enzymic group with a pK of approx. 9.0 belonging possibly to a tyrosine residue or a zinc hydrate. 5. A large entropy decrease was found to accompany the binding of NAD+ and NADH to alkaline phosphatase. This may be further evidence of an "induced-fit" mechanism previously suspected because of the synergistic inhibitory effects of adenosine and nicotinamide.

Perfused livers from ethanol pretreated rats utilized ethanol and acetaldehyde at higher rates than appropriate controls. This adaptive increase in hepatic ethanol and acetaldehyde uptake was associated with a marked (greater than 60%) increase in hepatic oxygen uptake. Ethanol uptake in both ethanol-treated and control livers was similarly sensitive to inhibition by 4-methylpyrazole, rotenone, and antimycin A. The adaptive increase in ethanol uptake was apparently specifically abolished by ouabain, an inhibitor of the sodium-plus potassium-activated ATPase. The data are consistent with the hypothesis that chronic treatment with ethanol increases ATPase activity. The ADP produced from these initiating events enters the mitochondrial space and stimulates electron transport and oxygen uptake. As a consequence of these events, a greater rate of NADH reoxidation occurs, resulting in a greater rate of production of NAD+ which stimulates ethanol oxidation via alcohol dehydrogenase and acetaldehyde oxidation via aldehyde dehydrogenase(s).

Palmitylcarnitine oxidation by isolated liver mitochondria has been used to investigate the interaction of fatty acid oxidation with malate, glutamate, succinate, and the malate-aspartate shuttle. Mitochondria preincubated with fluorocitrate were added to a medium containing 2mM ATP and ATPase. This system, characterized by a high energy change, allowed titration of respiration to any desired rate between States 4 and 3 (Chance, B., and Williams, G. R. (1956) Adv. Enzymol. Relat. Areas Mol. Biol. 17, 65-134). When respiration (reference, with palmitylcarnitine and malate as substrates) was set at 75% of State 3, the oxidation of palmitylcarnitine was limited by acetoacetate formation. The addition of malate or glutamate approximately doubled the rate of beta oxidation. Malate circumvented this limitation by citrate formation, but the effect of glutamate apparently was due to enhancement of the capacity for ketogenesis. The rate of beta oxidation was curtailed when malate and glutamate were both present. This curtailment was more pronounced when the malate-aspartate shuttle was fully reconstituted. Among the oxidizable substrates examined, succinate was most effective in inhibiting palmitylcarnitine oxidation. Mitochondrial NADH/NAD+ ratios were correlated positively with suppression of beta oxidation. The degree of suppression of beta oxidation by the malate-aspartate shuttle (NADH oxidation) or by succinate oxidation was dependent on the respiratory state. Both substrates extensively reduced mitochondrial NAD+ and markedly suppressed beta oxidation as respiration approached State 4. Calculations of the rates of flux of hydrogen equivalents through beta oxidation show that the suppression of beta oxidation by glutamate or by the malate-aspartate shuttle is accounted for by increased flux of reducing equivalents through mitochondrial malic dehydrogenase. This increased Flux is accompanied by an increase in the steady state NADH/NAD+ ratio and a marked decrease in the synthesis of citrate. The alpha-glycerophosphate shuttle was reconstituted with mitochondria isolated from rats treated with L-thyroxine. This shuttle was about equal to the reconstructed malate-aspartate shuttle in supression of palmitylcarnitine oxidation. This interaction could not be demonstrated in euthyroid animals owing to the low activity of the mitochondrial alpha-glycerol phosphate dehydrogenase. It is concluded that beta oxidation can be regulated by the NADH/NAD+ ratio. The observed stimulation of flux through malate dehydrogenase both by glutamate and by the malate-aspartate shuttle results in an increased steady state NADH/NAD+ ratio, and is linked to a stoichiometric outward transport of aspartate. We suggest, therefore, that some of the reducing pressure exerted by the malate-aspartate shuttle and by glutamate plus malate is provided through the energy-linked, electrogenic transport of aspartate out of the mitochondria. These results are discussed with respect to the mechanism of the genesis of ethanol-induced fatty liver.

Aldose reductase (EC 1.1.1.21) is implicated in the pathophysiology of diabetic complications. In this paper we determined the activities of aldose reductase and ATPases of the erythrocytes in 17 patients with Type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). In the aldose reductase assay we used fluorometric method to avoid the disturbance of hemoglobin. With dihydronicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH), we verified it was aldose reductase but not aldehyde reductase II that was activated in the erythrocytes of the patients with NIDDM. The aldose reductase activity of the erythrocytes in the patients was significantly higher (P less than 0.01) than that in the controls. The activity of Na+/K(+)-ATPase of the patients was significantly lower (P less than 0.01) than that of the controls. The activities of Ca(2+)-ATPase and Mg(2+)-ATPase on the erythrocyte membranes of the patients were similar to those of the controls. At the same time we measured the seven nucleotide concentrations in the erythrocytes of the patients. In this experiment we used ultrafiltration method, instead of acid precipitation to make it possible to determine dihydronicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) and NADH. The concentrations of ATP, ADP and AMP were similar to those of the controls. The concentrations of NADPH, NAD+ and NADH in the erythrocytes of the patients were significantly lower (P less than 0.01, 0.05 and 0.05 respectively) than those of controls. The concentration of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP+) in the patients was significantly higher (P less than 0.01) than that of controls.
