The enzymatic analysis of fructose-1,6-diphosphate by a coupled assay utilizing triose-phosphate isomerase, glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and aldolase was carried out in rat serum and human plasma after fructose-1,6-diphosphate administration. The rate of disappearance of fructose-1,6-diphosphate was determined and compared to the activity of aspecific phosphatase. The uptake of fructose-1,6-diphosphate by rat liver and ileum was also determined with the same method.

The 11.5-kDa Zn(2+)-binding protein (ZnBP) was covalently linked to Sepharose. Affinity chromatography with a cytosolic subfraction from liver resulted in purification of a predominant 38-kDa protein. In comparable experiments with brain cytosol a 39-kDa protein was enriched. The ZnBP-protein interactions were zinc-specific. Both proteins were identified as fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolase. Experiments with crude cytosol showed zinc-specific interaction of additional enzymes involved in carbohydrate metabolism. From liver cytosol greater than 90% of the following enzymes were specifically retained: aldolase, phosphofructokinase-1, hexokinase/glucokinase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, and fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase. Glucose-6-phosphate isomerase, phosphoglycerate kinase, enolase, lactate dehydrogenase, and most of triosephosphate isomerase remained unbound. From L-type pyruvate kinase only the phosphorylated form seems to interact with ZnBP. Using brain cytosol hexokinase, phosphofructokinase-1, and aldolase were completely bound to the affinity column, whereas glucose-6-phosphate isomerase, phosphoglycerate kinase, enolase, lactate dehydrogenase, pyruvate kinase, and most of triose-phosphate isomerase remained unbound. The behavior of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase from this tissue could not be followed. A possible function of ZnBP in supramolecular organization of carbohydrate metabolism is proposed.

Interactions of the glycolytic enzymes glucose-6-phosphate isomerase, aldolase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, triose-phosphate isomerase, enolase, phosphoglycerate mutase, phosphoglycerate kinase, pyruvate kinase, lactate dehydrogenase type-M, and lactate dehydrogenase type-H with tubulin and microtubules were studied. Lactate dehydrogenase type-M, pyruvate kinase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, and aldolase demonstrated the greatest amount of co-pelleting with microtubules. The presence of 7% poly(ethylene glycol) increased co-pelleting of the latter four enzymes and two other enzymes, glucose-6-phosphate isomerase, and phosphoglycerate kinase with microtubules. Interactions also were characterized by fluorescence anisotropy. Since the KD values of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, pyruvate kinase and lactate dehydrogenase for tubulin and microtubules were all found to be between 1 and 4 microM, which is in the range of enzyme concentration in cells, these enzymes are probably bound to microtubules in vivo. These observations indicate that interactions of cytosolic proteins, such as the glycolytic enzymes, with cytoskeletal components, such as microtubules, may play a structural role in the formation of the microtrabecular lattice.

Interactions of glucose-6-phosphate isomerase (D-glucose-6-phosphate ketol-isomerase, EC 5.3.1.9), aldolase (D-fructose-1,6-bisphosphate D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate lyase, EC 4.1.2.13), glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate:NAD+ oxidoreductase (phosphorylating), EC 1.2.1.12), triose-phosphate isomerase (D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate ketol-isomerase, EC 5.3.1.1), phosphoglycerate mutase (D-phosphoglycerate 2,3-phosphomutase, EC 5.4.2.1), phosphoglycerate kinase (ATP:3-phospho-D-glycerate 1-phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.3), enolase (2-phospho-D-glycerate hydro-lyase, EC 4.2.1.11), pyruvate kinase (ATP:Pyruvate O2-phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.40) and lactate dehydrogenase [S)-lactate:NAD+ oxidoreductase, EC 1.1.1.27) with F-actin, among the glycolytic enzymes listed above, and with phosphofructokinase (ATP:D-fructose-6-phosphate 1-phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.11) were studied in the presence of poly(ethylene glycol). Both purified rabbit muscle enzymes and rabbit muscle myogen, a high-speed supernatant fraction containing the glycolytic enzymes, were used to study enzyme-F-actin interactions. Following ultracentrifugation, F-actin and poly(ethylene glycol) tended to increase and KCl to decrease the pelleting of enzymes. In general, the greater part of the pelleting occurred in the presence of both F-actin and poly(ethylene glycol) and the absence of KCl. Enzymes that pelleted more in myogen preparations than as individual purified enzymes in the presence of poly(ethylene glycol) and the absence of F-actin were tested for specific enzyme-enzyme associations, several of which were observed. Such interactions support the view that the internal cell structure is composed of proteins that interact with one another to form the microtrabecular lattice.

A method for determining Control Coefficients is proposed for systems studied in vitro and applied to a model pathway. Rat liver extract, which converts glucose into glycerol 3-phosphate, was used with the addition to the incubation mixture of fructose-bisphosphate aldolase, triose-phosphate isomerase and glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase as 'auxiliary' enzymes, which leaves all the control on the first three enzymes. The flux of the metabolic pathway was recorded by assaying NADH decay. Flux Control Coefficients (CJE) of hexokinase, glucose-6-phosphate isomerase and phosphofructokinase were calculated by titration of the system with increasing quantities of extraneous enzymes. It is shown that the summation property is fulfilled. The applicability of this procedure to study the control in any metabolic pathway is discussed. Possible relevance of the method to conditions in vivo and its limitations are considered.

Binding of triose-phosphate isomerase (D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate ketol-isomerase, EC 5.3.1.1) to muscle myofibrils depends upon the concurrent binding of either fructose-bisphosphate aldolase (EC 4.1.2.13), glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.12) or both of these enzymes together. Thus triose-phosphate isomerase does not bind directly to myofibrils but to glycolytic enzymes already bound to the myofibril. This was established using 125I-labelled enzymes, which are required to provide the necessary sensitivity for the measurement of the complex multiphasic adsorption isotherms. In the presence of aldolase, the most stable stoichiometric relationship is two aldolase bound per triose-phosphate isomerase. The results show that not all sites of aldolase or glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase binding are available for triose-phosphate isomerase binding. Nevertheless, the results suggest the formation under particular circumstances of a minicomplex spanning the catalysis of fructose 1,6-bisphosphate to 3-phosphoglycerate. Such a complex could provide the physical basis of metabolic channeling in which metabolic intermediates are not released from the complex.

Clostridium sporogenes 272 has a high rate of glucose fermentation. Its cell-free extract contains all glycolytic enzymes catalysing glucose degradation to pyruvate and shows the phosphoroclastic activity. C. sticklandii CSG has a low rate of glucose fermentation. Hence, the activity of the following enzymes is lower in this organism comparing to C. sporogenes: phosphohexoisomerase (EC 5.3.1.9), phosphofructokinase (EC 2.7.1.11), aldolase (EC 4.1.2.13), triosephosphate isomerase (EC 5.3.1.1) and glyceraldehyde phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.12). Moreover, it is possible that the system of glucose transport into the cell is damaged in C. sticklandii.

Apparent physical interaction between pea chloroplast (Pisum sativum L.) glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.13) and aldolase (EC 4.1.2.13) is seen in phase-partitioning, fluorescent-anisotropy and isoelectric-focusing experiments. Similarly, results obtained in phase-partitioning and isoelectric-focusing experiments indicate physical interaction between aldolase and triose-phosphate isomerase (EC 5.3.1.1). Kinetic experiments suggest that both aldolase-bound glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate can act as substrate for glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase. These results are consistent with the notion that there is interaction between these three enzymes both during photosynthetic CO2 fixation and during glycolysis in the chloroplast.

A simple, rapid enzymatic assay for the determination of inorganic pyrophosphate in tissue and plasma has been developed using the enzyme pyrophosphate--fructose-6-phosphate 1-phosphotransferase (EC 2.7.1.90) which was purified from extracts of Propionibacterium shermanii. The enzyme phosphorylates fructose-6-phosphate to produce fructose-1,6-bisphosphate using inorganic pyrophosphate as the phosphate donor. The utilization of inorganic pyrophosphate is measured by coupling the production of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate with the oxidation of NADH using fructose-bisphosphate aldolase (EC 4.1.2.13), triosephosphate isomerase (EC 5.3.1.1), and glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (NAD+)(EC 1.1.1.8). The assay is completed in less than 5 min and is not affected by any of the components of tissue or plasma extracts. The recovery of pyrophosphate added to frozen tissue powder was 97 +/- 1% (n = 4). In this assay the change in absorbance is linearly related to the concentration of inorganic pyrophosphate over the curvette concentration range of 0.1 microM to 0.1 mM.

Based on the neurotrophic properties of astrocytes in response to ischemia, the current work focuses on the mechanism for cultured astrocytes to adapt to a hypoxic environment. Intracellular glucose levels in primary cultured rat astrocytes exposed to hypoxia fell by 30% within 24 h, in parallel with a decrease in glycogen stores. Glycolytic metabolism was crucial for cell survival during hypoxia, as 2-deoxyglucose resulted in rapid ATP depletion and cell death. The mechanism for maintaining glucose levels under these conditions appeared to be mobilization of glycogen stores, rather than increased extracellular uptake of glucose, as gluconolactone (an inhibitor of beta1-4 amyloglucosidase) induced a rapid fall in cellular ATP in cultures subjected to hypoxia, whereas cytochalasin B was without affect. Addition of cycloheximide diminished the viability of astrocytes in hypoxia, suggesting an obligatory role of de-novo gene expression to respond to hypoxia. Consistently, the results of differential display suggested the induction of glycolytic enzymes, including aldolase A (EC 4.1.2.13), hexokinase II (ATP: D-hexose 6-phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.1), and triosephosphate isomerase (EC 5.3.1.1) in the hypoxic culture. Marked induction of these glycolytic enzymes in hypoxic astrocytes was confirmed by Northern blot analysis. These data provide a theoretical basis to understand the ability of astrocytes to tolerate ischemic condition.
