Polarization of fluorescence measurements of aldolase and D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase labeled with fluorescein isothiocyanate have been used to detect the possible formation of a soluble complex between the proteins. The results suggest an interaction between aldolase and D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase with an apparent dissociation constant 3 X 10(-7) M and an apparent stoichiometry of two aldolase tetramers bound per tetramer of D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase.

Human erythrocyte ghosts depleted of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase are used as specific high-affinity adsorbents for the purification of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase from mouse muscle, liver, kidney and brain. On incubation with the crude tissue homogenates, the depleted ghosts bind glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, aldolase, and a few other proteins. Washing the incubated ghosts several times with 5 mM phosphate buffer(pH 8.0) removed several of the non specifically bound proteins. Aldolase can be eliminated from the membrane by incubating the ghosts for 30 min in 5 mM phosphate buffer (pH 8.0)/2mM fructose 1,6-biphosphate, and then washing with the same solution. Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase can then be specifically eluted from the ghosts by incubating them with 2 mM NADH in 5mM phosphate buffer (pH 8.0). Although the enzyme from brain appears to bind less strongly to the ghosts it was possible, using this procedure, to purify glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase from all the tissues investigated. The purified enzyme exhibits high specific activity and migrates as a single band (during SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis) which corresponds to a protomer molecular weight of 37 000.

The mode of cross-linking of rabbit-muscle aldolase and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase by glutaraldehyde was studied. The about 5 A long reagent can partly cross-link subunits within the tetramers, whereas it is readily able to make intermolecular cross-links producing polymeric enzyme species. Of the two enzymes, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase has a greater tendency to polymerize in the presence of glutaraldehyde. In the case of aldolase, the inter- and intramolecular cross-links between subunits can be distinguished by SDS gel-electrophoresis. The copolymerization pattern of the two enzymes indicates that, though the formation of mixed polyenzymes can be detected by affinity chromatography on human erythrocyte ghosts, under the conditions tested these proteins do not form heterologous enzyme complexes that could be trapped by glutaraldehyde.

Setaria cervi, the filarial parasite inhabiting the Indian water buffalo (Bubalus bubalis Linn.) contained almost all the enzymes involved in glycogen degradation. Significant activities of glycogen phosphorylase, glucokinase, phosphoglucomutase, phosphoglucose isomerase, phosphofructokinase, FDP-aldolase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, phosphopyruvate hydratase, pyruvate kinase, lactate dehydrogenase glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase were detected in cell-free extracts of whole worms. The presence of PEP-carboxykinase, malate dehydrogenase, fumarase and fumarate reductase revealed the functioning of the PEP-succinate pathway in addition to phosphorylating glycolysis and pentose phosphate pathway in the parasite. Excepting fumarate reductase all other enzymes were localized in the particulate-free cytosol fraction, although small amounts of glycogen phosphorylase, aldolase and lactate dehydrogenase were also detected in the mitochondrial fraction.

Human erythrocyte ghosts were solubilized in a low ionic strength medium containing 1% Triton X-100 and subjected to electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gels containing Triton X-100. Five major bands were stained with Coomassie Blue, all except one band being heterogenous when re-electrophoresed in gels containing sodium dodecyl sulphate. It was possible to detect acetylcholinesterase, non-specific esterase, ATPase, alkaline phosphatase, 5'-nucleotidase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, lactate dehydrogenase, and aldolase activities on the Triton-containing polyacrylamide gels. Two of the enzymes, ATPase and 5'-nucleotidase, showed substantial inhibition by Triton X-100 in quantitative studies. This appears to be a useful method for studying membrane enzymes in normal and pathological red cells.

Fifteen red cell enzyme activities of growth-retarded patients with and without growth hormone (GH) deficiency were investigated before and after GH administration. The 15 enzymes were Hexokinase, phosphoglucomutase, glucose phosphate, isomerase, phosphofructokinase, fructose diphosphate aldolase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphae dehydrogenase, triosephosphate isomerase, 2,3-diphosphoglycerate mutase, 3-phosphoglycerate kinase, 3-phosphoglycerate mutase, enolase, pyruvate kinase, glycose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, 6-phosphogluconic dehydrogenase, glutathione reducase. Sixty-six subjects were studied: 30 normal control subjects (group N) and 36 patients (aged 5-23 years) with short stature. Complete endocrine evaluation showed 21 (group I) to have GH deficiency (10 patients with isolated GH deficiency) and 15 (group II) to have normal hypothalamic and pituitary function except for two patients with a moderate hypothyroidism. Both had been receiving thyroid hormone treatment for a long time before our studies. All 36 patients were treated with 2 mg human growth hormone intramuscularly for 7 days. Before GH treatment no significant difference was observed between hematologic data in group I (GH deficiency) and group II (no GH deficiency). After GH therapy there was a significant increase in reticulocyte count in both groups of patients with short stature. The mean pretreatment value in group I was 1.294% +/- 0.084 (SEM); the mean post-treatment value was 2.081% +/- 0.287 (SEM)< P less than 0.005. The mean pretreatment value in group II was 1.0% 0.184 (SEM); the mean post-treatment value was 1.407% +/- 0.193 (SEM), P less than 0.01. In group II (no GH deficiency) mean pretreatment erythrocyte enzyme activities were not significantly different from those activities observed in normal control subjects (group N). However, in patients who lacked GH, the pretreatment activities of five red cell enzymes (glucose phosphate isomerase, triosephosphate isomerase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, 2,3-diphosphoglycerate mutase, 3-phosphoglycerate kinase) were significantly decreased before GH administration compared with the values in normal control subjects...

1. The effects of protein concentration and ionic strength on the adsorption of the individual glycolytic enzymes to F-actin and F-actin--trypomyosin--troponin have been studied. 2. Appreciable association was demonstrated under conditions of physiological ionic strength and high protein concentration, and tropomyosin--troponin established as an important and generalized component of these interactions. 3. Phosphofructokinase, aldolase, pyruvate kinase, lactate dehydrogenase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and glucose-6-phosphate isomerase were strongly bound under these conditions, while triosephosphate isomerase, phosphoglycerate kinase, phosphoglycerate mutase, enolase and hexokinase displayed less adsorption to the structural proteins. 4. The influence of a number of parameters on the adsorption phenomena was examined. Ca2+ and fructose 1,6-diphosphate increased the adsorption of aldolase, lactate dehydrogenase and pyruvate kinase, while decreasing the adsorption of the enzymes of the constant-proportion group. 5. Of the other major enzymic components of skeletal muscle, creatine kinase, adenylate kinase and malate dehydrogenase showed no adsorption to F-actin--tropomyosin--troponin under the experimental conditions. Some adsorption was evident, however, in the case of aspartate aminotransferase, (NADP) isocitrate dehydrogenase and alpha-glycerolphosphate dehydrogenase. 6. These results have been discussed in relation to their functional significance and the roles of enzyme compartmentation in the cell.

Aldolase is a trace protein in isolated human red cell membrane preparations. Following total elution of the endogenous enzyme by a saline wash, the interaction of this membrane with rabbit muscle aldolase was studied. At saturation, exogenous aldolase constituted over 40% of the repleted membrane protein. Scatchard analysis revealed two classes of sites, each numbering approximately 7 X 10(5) per ghost. Specificity was suggested by the exclusive binding of the enzyme to the membrane's inner (cytoplasmic) surface. Furthermore, milimolar levels of fructose 1,6-bisphosphate eluted the enzyme from ghosts, while fructose 6-phosphate and NADH (a metabolite which elutes human erythrocyte glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (G3PD) from its binding site) were ineffectuve. Removing peripheral membrane proteins with EDTA and lithium 3,5-diiodosalicylate did not diminish the binding capacity of the membranes. An aldolase-band 3 complex, dissociable by high ionic strength or fructose 1,6-bisphosphate treatment, was demonstrated in Triton X-100 extracts of repleted membranes by rate zonal sedimentation analysis on sucrose gradients. We conclude that the association of rabbit muscle aldolase with isolated human erythrocyte membranes reflects its specific binding to band 3 at the cytoplasmic surface, as is also true of G3PD.

Hypotonic human erythrocyte ghosts, devoid of the original glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase content of the red cell, bind added glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenases, isolated from human erythrocytes, rabbit and pig muscle, as well as rabbit muscle aldolase. There are only slight differences in the affinities towards the various glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenases. On the other hand, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenases are bound much stronger than aldolase; in an equimolar mixture the former can prevent the binding of the latter, or replace previously bound aldolase at the membrane surface. Binding is always accompanied by the partial inactivation of enzymes, which can be reverted by desorption. Unwashed ghosts rich in hemoglobin seem to have a more pronounced inactivating effect on bound glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase. In isotonic media ghosts, whether white or unwashed, reseal and do not interact with the enzymes.

The effect of estradiol-17 beta on the activities of glycolytic enzymes from female rat brain was studied. The following enzymes were examined: hexokinase (HK, EC 2.7.1.1), phosphofructokinase (PFK, EC 2.7.1.11), aldolase (EC 4.1.2.13), glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.12), phosphoglycerate kinase (EC 2.7.2.3), phosphoglycerate mutase (EC 2.7.5.3), enolase (EC 4.2.1.11) and pyruvate kinase (PK, EC 2.7.1.40). The activities of HK (soluble and membrane-bound), PFK and PK were increased after 4 h of hormone treatment, while the others remained constant. The changes in activity were not seen in the presence of actinomycin D. The significant rise of the activities of the key glycolytic enzymes was also observed in the cell culture of mouse neuroblastoma C1300 treated with hormone. Only three of the studied isozymes, namely, HKII, B4 and K4 were found to be estradiol-sensitive for HK, PFK and PK, respectively. The results obtained suggest that rat brain glycolysis regulation by estradiol is carried out in neurons due to definite isozymes induction.
