Specific antisera against glycogen phosphorylase, phosphofructokinase, aldolase, glyceraldehyde-phosphate dehydrogenase, enolase, lactate dehydrogenase, cytosolic and mitochondrial malate dehydrogenase from rabbit muscle were obtained from sheep. The gamma-globulins were used for indirect immunofluorescent localization of the respective enzymes in rabbit skeletal muscle and heart. In stretched skeletal muscle a cross-striation like distribution was observed for all enzymes studied. In the case of mitochondrial malate dehydrogenase this pattern is due to the staining of I-band mitochondria. In cross-sections, an intense staining of the sarcolemma and of subsarcolemmal mitochondria was observed. Comparative analyses with polarized light revealed that the cytosolic enzymes under study are distributed in the relaxed muscle fibre predominantly within the isotropic zones. The same distribution holds also for heart. In contracting muscle a decrease in cross-striated fluorescence and a faint staining of the interfibrillar spaces suggests a location also within the interfibrillar space.

Formation of a bienzyme complex of pig heart mitochondrial malate dehydrogenase and citrate synthase in a buffered system is demonstrated by means of a covalently attached fluorescent probe to citrate synthase. Assuming 1:1 stoichiometry of the enzymes in the complex, an apparent dissociation constant of 10(-6) M was calculated from fluorescence anisotropy measurements. The effect of various metabolites on the interaction was tested. NAD+, oxalacetate, citrate, ATP, and L(-)- or D(+)-malate had no effect on the association of the two enzymes, whereas alpha-ketoglutarate increased and NADH decreased it. The interaction of mitochondrial citrate synthase with cytosolic malate dehydrogenase was found to be much weaker, whereas interaction of citrate synthase with another cytosolic enzyme, aldolase, could not be detected. In kinetic experiments, the activation of malate dehydrogenase by citrate synthase was observed. The effect of pyridine nucleotides and alpha-ketoglutarate is discussed in relation to the direction of the metabolic flow of oxalacetate.

1. The experiment investigated the effects of psychotropic drugs on enzymes in vitro.2. Chlorpromazine inhibits mitochondrial malate dehydrogenase in concentrations of 1.4x10(-4)M and above. No effect was observed below this concentration.3. A sharp inflection in the [unk]/drug plot was also seen with chlorpromazine (1.4 x 10(-4)M), trifluoperazine (1 x 10(-5)M), prochlorperazine (1 x 10(-4)M), and amylobarbitone (8 x 10(-3)M) acting on rat brain (Na(+)-K(+)-) Mg(++)-ATPase and with chlorpromazine (10(-4)M) and imipramine (3 x 10(-4)M) acting on aldolase.
