ATPase activity of actomyosin and activity of glycogenolytic enzymes were distinctly increased during postnatal period of development. Direct correlation was observed between the actomyosin ATPase and phosphofructokinase, phosphohexoisomerase, enolase, pyruvate kinase, lactate dehydrogenase and "bound" fraction of aldolase. Kinetic patterns of phosphofructokinase (Km and Hill's coefficient) were not altered at the postnatal period. Formation of complexes between the contractile proteins and glycolytic enzymes appears to be important in development of contractile function.

The effect of di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP) on diethylnitrosamine (DEN)-initiated preneoplastic liver lesions with expression of gamma-glutamyltranspeptidase (GGTase) and loss of adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) as well as alterations of hepatic carbohydrate metabolism in male and female Sprague-Dawley rats have been investigated. Two treatment schedules have been compared with respect to their sensitivity by the histochemical demonstration of preneoplastic islands and by the biochemical determination of alterations in enzyme activities of liver homogenates and of serum, the last indicating hepatotoxicity. For initiation, a single dose of DEN was given, followed by treatment with various doses of DEHP given three times weekly by gavage for 7 or 11 consecutive weeks. As histochemical enzyme markers, the expression of positive GGTase as well as the deficiency in ATPase were used for identification of liver foci. The weanling female rats (protocol A) were found to be more sensitive to the carcinogenic effect of DEN in view of foci incidence than the mature male rats which underwent partial hepatectomy prior to DEN application. The administration of 200 mg DEHP/kg body wt increased the incidence of ATPase-deficient foci in both male and female rats; however, concentrations of 1000 and 2000 mg DEHP/kg decreased the incidence of liver foci. The number of foci with expression of GGTase was only slightly increased in female rats following a DEHP concentration of 50 mg/kg, and 200 mg/kg body wt. DEHP alone did not induce preneoplastic lesions that could be identified by these two markers. Biochemical investigations indicate that DEHP alters the metabolic pattern in liver. An increase of the NADP-linked enzymes glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH), malic enzyme, extra-mitochondrial ICDH as well as an enhancement of NAD-dependent alpha-G3PDH and lactate dehydrogenase were found following DEHP administration. On the other hand the glycolytic enzymes pyruvate kinase (PK) and enolase as well as the gluconeogenetic enzyme fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (FBPase) were significantly reduced. In protocol B (male rats) the reactions of PK, FBPase and malic enzyme were more altered after DEHP exposure than in protocol A, while the activity of G6PDH was more increased in protocol A. Most enzymes being involved in the carbohydrate metabolism are influenced by DEHP in a dose-dependent manner. There was no increase in serum FBPase activity in both male and female rats after DEHP treatment but a reduction of glutamate-oxalate-transaminase and glutamate-pyruvate-transaminase activities was observed.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Fluoride inhibition of carbohydrate metabolism by the acidogenic plaque microflora is well-established, although it has not always been appreciated that oral bacteria vary considerably in their susceptibility to fluoride. Early studies demonstrated that the F-induced reduction in acid production was due, in part, to the inhibition of the glycolytic enzyme, enolase, which converts 2-P-glycerate to P-enolpyruvate. The decreased output of PEP in the presence of F, in turn, results in the inhibition of sugar transport via the PEP phosphotransferase system (PTS). Bacterial accumulation of fluoride involves the transport of HF, a process requiring a transmembrane pH difference or pH gradient, which is generated only by metabolically active cells. The uptake of HF into the more alkaline cytoplasm results in the dissociation of HF to H+ and F- and, if allowed to continue, the accumulation of protons acidifies the cytoplasm, causing a reduction in both the proton gradient and enzyme activity. Current information indicates that in addition to enolase, F- also inhibits the membrane-bound, proton-pumping H+/ATPase, which is involved in the generation of proton gradients through the efflux of protons from the cell at the expense of ATP. Thus, fluoride has the dual action of dissipating proton gradients and preventing their generation through its action on H+/ATPase. The collapse of transmembrane proton gradient, in turn, reduces the ability of cells to transport solutes via mechanisms involving proton motive force. In spite of these known effects on the bacterial cell, there is no general agreement that the anti-microbial effects of F contribute to the anti-caries effect of fluoride.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Maternal alcohol consumption produces various abnormalities in the offspring, termed fetal alcohol syndrome. We investigated various biochemical modifications occurring in the brain and the liver of pups born to alcohol-consuming rats. The parameters analysed were: superoxide dismutase, a protector against free radicals injury, enolase isoenzymes as markers of nerve cell maturation, glutamine synthetase involved in ammonia detoxification, alcohol and aldehyde deshydrogenases in order to evaluate the contribution of acetaldehyde teratogenicity and ATPase activities involved in ion and neurotransmitter transport. Activities of all these enzymes were decreased in the brain even when alcohol was withdrawn from the mother diet either during pregnancy or lactation. Activities were also decreased in the liver, except enolase and alcohol deshydrogenase activities, which were increased, suggesting possible adaptative events in the presence of alcohol. It seems likely that the multiple alterations observed in experimental fetal alcohol syndrome may be caused by free radicals following decreased superoxide dismutase activity in addition to the toxicity of alcohol and its metabolites.

Peptides generated from enzymatic hydrolysis of chicken enolase and the alpha- and beta-subunits of bovine F1-ATPase were analyzed by mass spectrometry to determine the nature of their modified N-termini. In the case of chicken enolase, a peptide was isolated from a Staphylococcus aureus proteinase digest by HPLC and analyzed directly by fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry (FABMS). In conjunction with mass spectral evidence obtained from the methyl ester derivative and a secondary tryptic peptide, a structure is proposed containing an N-acetyl serine at the N-terminus. The alpha-subunit of bovine mitochondrial ATPase was chromatographed by HPLC after S. aureus proteinase digestion and a single peak was analyzed on the basis of predicted retention times. A Mr 716 was determined by FABMS and pyrrolidone carboxylic acid was deduced on the basis of its amino acid composition and partial Edman sequence data. The beta-subunit of ATPase produced a series of closely eluting peaks on HPLC after limited digestion with trypsin of the alpha 2 beta 2 complex. These peptides were analyzed by both Edman degradation and FABMS. These data showed the N-terminus to be frayed with N-terminal sequences beginning in pyro-Glu-Ala-Ser, Gln-Ala-Ser, Glu-Ala-Ser, Ala-Ser, and Ser but with no N-acetyl-Ser as was previously thought.

The effect of alcohol on enzymes involved in energy metabolism of nervous tissue were analyzed, in vivo after acute and chronic ethanol administration to rats and in vitro by addition of 50 mM and 100 mM ethanol to the medium of cultured nerve cells: chick neurons, chick glial cells, a neuronal cell line (MT17) and a glial tumoral cell line (C6). The parameters we measured were (Na+, K+), Mg2+ and ecto Ca2+, Mg2+ ATPase activities involved in transport phenomena and enolase activities (non neuronal NNE and neuron specific enolase NSE) as markers of nerve cell maturation. In vivo, after chronic ethanol administration (Na+, K+) ATPase activity was increased while Mg2+ dependent activity was not affected. Enolase activity was decreased. Acute ethanol administration decreased (Na+, K+) ATPase activity, while Mg2+ dependent activity was not affected. In cultured nerve cells ethanol effect was dose, time and cell type dependent; alterations of the cell membrane by trypsinization of the tissue before seeding modifies the effect of ethanol on the enzymes we analyzed. Our results suggest that alcohol effect on nerve cells depends mainly on the lipoprotein structure of the cell membranes which may have different properties from one cell type to another.

Vesiculated fragments of chicken skeletal muscle transverse tubule (TT) membranes were analyzed for their content of loosely associated and integral membrane proteins. Of particular interest was the identification of the magnesium-stimulated ATPase (Mg-ATPase), which is characteristically located in native isolated TT vesicles of chicken skeletal muscle [R. A. Sabbadini and V. R. Okamoto (1983) Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 223, 107-119]. A number of the proteins found in vesicular TT preparations were found to be extractable by a mild Triton-X100 treatment and were identified as aldolase, enolase, creatine kinase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, lactate dehydrogenase, and pyruvate kinase. Approximately 60% of TT-associated protein was extracted with Triton, resulting in a twofold enrichment of the Mg-ATPase. Concommitantly, one core integral membrane protein possessing a Mr of 102,000 was enriched, suggesting that it is responsible for the Mg-ATPase activity present in chicken skeletal muscle TT membranes.

1. Intracellular concentrations of intermediates and cofactors of glycolysis were measured in guinea-pig cerebral cortex slices incubated under varying conditions. 2. Comparison of mass-action ratios with apparent equilibrium constants for the reactions of glycolysis showed that hexokinase, phosphofructokinase and pyruvate kinase catalyse reactions generally far from equilibrium, whereas phosphoglucose isomerase, aldolase, phosphoglycerate kinase, phosphoglycerate mutase, enolase, adenlyate kinase and creatine phosphokinase are generally close to equilibrium. The possibility that glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase may catalyse a ;non-equilibrium' reaction is discussed. 3. Correlation of changes in concentrations of substrates for enzymes catalysing ;non-equilibrium' reactions with changes in rates of glycolysis caused by alteration of the conditions of incubation showed that hexokinase, phosphofructokinase, pyruvate kinase and possibly glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase are subject to metabolic control in cerebral cortex slices. 4. It is suggested that the glycolysis is controlled by two regulatory systems, the hexokinase-phosphofructokinase system and the glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase-pyruvate kinase system. These are discussed. 5. It is concluded that the rate of glycolysis in guinea-pig cerebral cortex slices is limited either by the rate of glucose entry into the slices or by the hexokinase-phosphofructokinase system. 6. It is concluded that addition of 0.1mm-ouabain to guinea-pig cerebral cortex slices causes inhibition of either glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase or phosphoglycerate kinase or both, in a manner independent of the known action of ouabain on the sodium- and potassium-activated adenosine triphosphatase.

Exposure of red cells to fluoride produces a variety of metabolic alterations, most of which are based upon the secondary effects of enolase inhibition, which reduces pyruvate synthesis and interferes with the regeneration of diphosphopyridine nucleotide (NAD). Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is consumed in the hexokinase and phosphofructokinase reactions but is not regenerated since the deficiency of NAD limits glyceraldehyde phosphate dehydrogenase. ATP depletion in the presence of fluoride and calcium induces a massive loss of cations and water. Of the other known sites of ATP utilization, membrane-bound ATPase is inhibited by fluoride, but the incorporation of fatty acids into membrane phospholipids is unaffected until ATP is depleted. The addition of methylene blue to fluoride-treated red cells regenerates NAD, permitting triose oxidation and the generation of 3-phosphoglycerate and 2,3-diphosphoglycerate. Enolase inhibition is then partially overcome by mass action, and sufficient glycolysis proceeds to maintain the concentration of ATP. This in turn prevents the massive cation and water loss, and permits membrane phospholipid renewal to proceed. Membrane ATPase activity is not restored by the oxidant so that normal cation leakage remains unopposed by cation pumping in red cells exposed to the combination of fluoride and methylene blue.

The rate coefficient for (22)Na release from previously labeled human erythrocytes was determined in the presence of 0.1-10 mM sodium fluoride (F). The oxidized nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD(+)) level at the end of 2 hr of incubation in tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane (Tris)-Ringer medium was also measured. Both parameters decreased proportionately as F concentration was raised. Both F-induced changes were immediate and were reversed by 10 mM pyruvate. The decrease in NAD(+) concentration following enolase inhibition by F is attributed to a diminished rate of formation in the reaction catalyzed by lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) with undiminished continued utilization in the reaction catalyzed by glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH). It is postulated that the NAD(+) lowering limited the GAPDH step, resulting in proportionate decreases in the rates of phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK) and Na,K-dependent adenosine triphosphatase (Na,K-ATPase), a reaction sequence thought to link glycolysis with active Na extrusion. Adding pyruvate with F increased NAD(+) production at the LDH step, thus reactivating GAPDH, PGK, and Na,K-ATPase and leading to the observed restoration of (22)Na release. The results suggest, therefore, that F inhibits active Na transport in intact human erythrocytes indirectly through a lowering of NAD(+), although, direct inhibition of the Na,K-ATPase by F may possibly occur simultaneously.
