Cell-free extracts of D-fructose grown cells of Pseudomonas putida, P. fluorescens, P. aeruginosa, P. stutzeri, P. mendocina, P. acidovorans and P. maltophila catalyzed a P-enolpyruvate-dependent phosphorylation of D-fructose and contained 1-P-fructokinase activity suggesting that in these species fructose-1-P and fructose-1,6-P2 were intermediates of D-fructose catabolism. Neither the 1-P-fructokinase nor the activity catalyzing a P-enolpyruvate-dependent phosphorylation of D-fructose was present in significant amounts in succinate-grown cells indicating that both activities were inducible. Cell-free extracts also contained activities of fructose-1,6-P2 aldolase, fructose-1,6-P2 phosphatase, and P-hexose isomerase which could convert fructose-1,6-P2 to intermediates of either the Embden-Meyerhof pathway or Entner-Doudoroff pathway. Radiolabeling experiments with 1-14C-D-fructose suggested that in P. putida, P. aeruginosa, P. stutzeri, and P. acidovorans most of the alanine was made via the Entner-Doudoroff pathway with a minor portion being made via the Embden-Meyerhof pathway. An edd- mutant of O. putida which lacked a functional Entner-Doudoroff pathway but was able to grow on D-fructose appeared to make alanine solely via the Embden-Meyerhof pathway.

The properties of 12 enzymes related to the glycolytic and oxidative metabolism of glucose were examined in normal and malignant epithelium of human uterine tissues to develop optimised assays suitable for both types of tissue and to delineate important kinetic differences that may exist between them. All assays gave acceptable long-term precision, although instability of phosphofructokinase and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase prevented proper assessment; and all were linear with concentration to an absorbance change of 0.04/min, or more in the case of several enzymes. Notable differences between pyruvate kinase of normal and malignant uterine epithelium were found with D-fructose-1,6-diphosphate (FDP) which caused significantly greater activation of the latter as well as a dramatic reduction in Km for phosphoenol pyruvate; inhibition by DL-alanine was greater for pyruvate kinase of malignant than normal cervix epithelium, whereas endometrium did not show this difference. The ratio of aldolase activity with FDP to that with D-fructose-1-phosphate was greater in malignant than in normal cervix epithelium, no significant difference being apparent in endometrium.

A neutral SH-dependent proteinase was isolated from bovine spleen by a slight modification of the previous method (1) and its action on some natural and synthetic substrates was studied. The activity of the enzyme was increased 2000--2500-fold as compared to that of the original extract. The enzyme hydrolyzed various histones (H1, H2a, H2b, H3), casein and protamine but did not split hemoglobin, serum albumin and 14C-tryptophane-labelled total protein from chicken embryos. The enzyme possessed neither collagenolytic nor elastase activity; it did not inactivate aldolase, hexokinase, glyceraldehyde phosphate dehydrogenase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, which makes the enzyme different from cathepsin B1 and some other previously described proteinases. The enzyme did not split BAPA, BAEE, ATEE, Boc-Ala-ONP, Leu-beta-NA and some other peptides. The molecular weight of the enzyme was found to be about 15 000.

Rat muscle was extracted at pH 4 and submitted to gel-filtration on Sephadex G-75 and to chromatography on DEAE-Sephadex. Gel-filtration gave a large peak of activity towards Bz-Arg-NNap with an estimated molecular weight of 25,500. Activity towards Bz-Arg-NH2 was present in this peak and in another peak of molecular weight 45,000. The second peak also hydrolysed benzoyl-glycyl-L-arginine. DEAE-Sephadex gave five peaks of Bz-Arg-NNap hydrolysing activity; all showed thiol dependence. Peaks III, IV and V hydrolysed Z-Ala-Arg-Arg-NNap-OMe rapidly; they also inactivated aldolase and were strongly inhibited by leupeptin. They are probably isoenzymes of cathepsin B1. Peak I showed these properties to a relatively small extent. 7-(N-Benzoyl-DL-argininamide)-4-methylcoumarin appears to be an alternative substrate for cathepsin B1; it was hydrolysed also by peak I, but relatively less rapidly. Peaks I and II were inhibited more than peaks III, IV and V by a muscle extract. Total activity of the Bz-Arg-NH2-hydrolysing enzyme in extensor digitorum longus muscle increased after denervation.

The paper described the findings of the activity of aspartate amino transferase (GOT) and alanine amino transferase (GPT), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), alkaline phosphatase (AP), and aldolase in the blood serum of calves examined for white-muscle disease (WMD). Relapsing mass accurrence of the disease was reported from various agricultural enterprises where calves were fed a milk replacer without vitamin E. In comparison with clinically healthy calves fed a feed mixture with vitamin E, calves suffering from the clinical form of WMD showed an alkaline phosphatase level decrease from 32.3 +/- 7.6 u. K. A. to 15.1 +/- 8.2 u. K. A. On the other hand, the activites of ALD, GOT, GPT, and LDH showed a statistically significant increase. The acute and sub-acute course of the disease increased enzyme activities as follows: ALD from 4.2 +/- 1.1 mumol (= 70.0 +/- 17.0 i.u.) to 9.7 +/- 2.1 mumol (= 163.0 +/- 33.2 i. u.), GOT from 0.9 +/-0.5 mumol (= 68.0 +/- 5.8 i.u.) to 16.7 +/- 11.7 mumol (= 567.0 +/-40.0 i. u.) GPT from 0.2 +/- 0.8 mumol (= 5.0 +/- 12.4 i. u.) to 9.8 +/- 2.8 mumol (= 330.0 +/- 40.4 i.u.), LDH from 46.1 +/- 5.4 mumol (= 765.0 +/- 40.0 i.u.) to 72.7 +/- 24.3 mumol (= 1,207.0 +/- 403.0 i.u.). In WMD-affected herds, similar enzyme activity fluctuations were observed even in calves showing no clinical signs of the disease. It follows from the study that the examination of serum enzymes provides a method to demonstrate the clinical and pre-clinical forms of white-muscle disease and that it can be included in the set of tests for the diagnosis of diseases in calves. The significant differences in all calves in the affected herds show that the disease is a danger to all animals in the herd fed a deficient mixture.

The activities of aspartate transminase (EC 2.6.1.1), alanine transminase (EC 2.6.1.2), alkaline phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.1), acid phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.2) leucine arylamidase (EC 3.4.1.1), aldolase (EC 4.1.2), lactate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.27), malate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.38) and cholinesterase (EC 3.1.1.7) were measured in serum of male rabbits and albino Wistar rats in dlplicate by means of microliter techniques. Furthermore, the diurnal alterations of enzyme activity were established in 8--10 animals of both species. Aspartate transaminase activity in the serum of rats was found to be significantly higher than in the serum of humans and rabbits, and essentially lower alkaline phosphatase values were obtained from the serum of rabbits in comparison with those found for the serum of humans and rats. Relatively high acid phosphatase and aldolase values as well as a very low cholinesterase activity were found in the serum of rabbits and rats. The mean malate dehydrogenase-activity was found to be twice as high as the mean lactate dehydrogenase, which is the contrary of the situation found in human serum. No significant diural alterations of the examined enzyme activities were established. The differences found between the animal and the human enzyme activities in serum are explained by species-determined peculiarities of metabolism or specific enzyme configuration.

Lysinuric protein intolerance (LPI), an autosomal recessive defect of diamino acid transport, is characterized chemically by renal hyperdiaminoaciduria, especially lysinuria, and by impaired formation of urea with hyperammonemia after protein ingestion. Our 20 patients thrived during breast-feeding, but ingestion of cow's milk caused diarrhea and vomiting. When able to select their diet, they rejected all protein-rich foods. They were short staturated and had weak atrophic muscles, osteoporosis, hepatomegaly and often splenomegaly. Four patients were mentally retarded. Fifteen patients had leukocyte counts below 4,000/mm3, and 17 patients had platelet counts below 150,000/mm3. Serum lactate dehydrogenase activity was constantly increased, and transaminase and aldolase activities were often increased. In the infants' livers, changes were only revealed by electron microscopy: increased and vesicular smooth endoplasmic reticulum, and abundance of glycogen particles in the hepatocytes. In the older patients, light microscopy demonstrated clearly limited areas where hepatocytes had large pale cytoplasm and small pyknotic nuclei. The diamino acids lysine, arginine and ornithine had plasma concentrations only one-third to one-half the normal mean; the renal clearances were clearly increased. Oral diamino acid loading tests suggested impaired intestinal absorption. Urea is built in the liver through transformation of ornithine to arginine, and cleavage of arginine to ornithine and urea. The addition of ornithine to an intravenous I-alanine loading prevented the hyperammonemia and normalized the urea production. Therefore, the diet has been supplemented with arginine, and more protein has been added. This therapy has lead to a remarkable catch-up growth in some patients. The pathophysiology of LPI is explained. Because of defective intestinal absorption and incrased renal loss, the diamino acids have a low plasma concentration. Their transport from plasma to hepatocytes is also impaired, and the liver becomes deficient in ornithine. This retards the urea cycle, and leads to postprandial hyperammonemia and protein aversion. The presence of the transport defect in the hepatocytes distinguishes LPI from other hyperdibasicaminoacidurias.

The influence of bovine somatotropin in acute CCl4 poisoning was studied in rabbits. Somatotropin was injected subcutaneously in doses of 2.5 mg/kg. Liver damage was assessed on the basis of alanine and aspartate aminotransferase and aldolase activities. STH injected during 10 experimental days or 5 days preceding experimental poisoning with CCl4 did not increase the degree of liver damage in comparison with the group of animals injected only with carbon tetrachloride.

Methods are presented for the preparation of a variety of D-fructose phosphates, 13C-substituted at any single carbon site or at any two symmetrically disposed carbon sites, from either 13C-substituted pyruvate or L-alanine. It is demonstrated that millimole quantities of product can be obtained in good yield following a "one-pot" incubation of 13C-substituted precursors with commercially available enzymes and cofactors of the glycolytic pathway. Since it has previously been shown that a wide variety of aldehydes serve as acceptable substrates for the final rabbit muscle aldolase-catalyzed condensation step, the method can potentially be applied to prepare a wide variety of 13C-substituted sugars and sugar phosphates.
