Binding of NAD and NADP dimers to NAD- and NADP-dependent dehydrogenases.

Interaction of the electrolytically prepared dimers of nicotinamide adenine nucleotide, (NAD)2, and nicotinamide adenine nucleotide phosphate, (NADP)2, with lactate, alcohol, glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate, alpha-glycerophosphate, glutamate and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase has been studied using the quenching of protein fluorescence, kinetics of inhibition and the stopped-flow method. It has been shown that these enzymes are able to bind dimers preserving their coenzyme specificity. The most efficient binding of (NAD)2 has been observed in the case of glutamate and lactate (bovine heart) dehydrogenase, the dissociation constants being 6 and 8 microM, respectively. (NADP)2 affinity to glutamate and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase is also fairly high. More detailed studies on the interactions of dimers with alcohol and glutamate dehydrogenase have shown that the binding to the coenzyme binding site is the prerequisite for the association. However, some additional stabilizing interactions with other enzyme groups are not excluded, though (NAD)2 does not bind to the known binding sites of these enzymes, such as the substrate pocket of alcohol dehydrogenase and the regulatory binding sites for ADP and GTP of glutamate dehydrogenase.

Changes in enzyme pattern of Ehrlich ascites tumor cells following serial cultivation in media with increased (hypertonic) NaCl content.

Adaptation of Ehrlich ascites tumor cells to serial cultivation in media with progressively elevated (hypertonic) NaCl content ("high NaCl"-tolerant cells) has resulted in progressive increases of the cellular activities of NAD-dependent glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.8), NAD-dependent malate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.37), glutamate--oxalacetate transaminase (EC 2.6.1.1), NAD (P)-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase (EC 1.4.1.3), NADP-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.42). The activities of glutamate-pyruvate transaminase (EC 2.6.1.2.) and of glycolytic enzymes as phospho-fructokinase (EC 2.7.1.11), glyceraldehydephosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.12) and lactate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.27) were only slightly and not in progressive manner (in response to the progressive increase of the environmental NaCl concentration) affected. These changes are discussed with respect to a metabolic pattern of these "high NaCl"-tolerant cells which is compatible with increased energy requirements, especially for active cation transport. It is suggested that these increased cellular enzyme activities reflect an increased transfer of reducing equivalents across mitochondrial membranes (via the "glycerophosphate cycle and the malate-aspartate shuttle") and possibly a stimulated lipid metabolism. These alterations in the level of enzyme activities must be regarded asan adaptive cellular response to the "high NaCl" environment, since readaptation to growth in regular isotonic media resulted in a reversion to the enzyme pattern characteristic of the parent cells.
