Limited proteolysis of the pyruvate dehydrogenase multienzyme complex of Bacillus subtilis.

Limited digestion of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex of Bacillus subtilis with either trypsin or chymotrypsin at 0 degrees C inhibited its ability to decarboxylate pyruvate and 2-oxoisovalerate oxidatively, without causing disassembly of the complex. The proteinases selectively cleaved the E1 alpha subunits to form two fragments of Mr 31500 and approx. 9500, as judged by sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis, both fragments remaining bound to the complex. Trypsin also caused a much slower cleavage of the E2 subunits, to form a fragment of apparent Mr 34000. The inhibition of overall dehydrogenase-complex activity was accompanied by the apparent loss of the pyruvate-driven and 2-oxoisovalerate-driven E1 activities, which was found to be due to a large increase in the Km for the 2-oxo acids: this change was correlated with the cleavage of the E1 alpha subunit.

A testis-specific form of the human pyruvate dehydrogenase E1 alpha subunit is coded for by an intronless gene on chromosome 4.

The pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) complex converts pyruvate to acetyl CoA, an essential step in aerobic glucose metabolism. We have previously shown that the gene for the E1 alpha subunit of this complex, expressed in somatic tissues, is located on band p22.1 of the human X chromosome. This gene, PDHA1, contains 10 introns and spans approximately 17 kb. An autosomal locus, PDHA2, showing significant cross-hybridization with a PDH E1 alpha cDNA probe, was detected on chromosome 4, in the region q22-q23. We here report the isolation of human testis-specific PDH E1 alpha cDNA clones. The similarity with the X chromosome-linked cDNA coding sequence at the nucleotide level is 84%. Specific amplification using the polymerase chain reaction confirmed the presence of a testis-specific mRNA and indicated that postmeiotic spermatogenic cells express this subunit. In situ hybridization with a unique probe from the 3' untranslated region of the testis-specific cDNA showed that the gene for this form of PDH E1 alpha is localized on chromosome 4 in the region q22-q23. The autosomal human gene was isolated from a chromosome 4-specific genomic library. The transcribed region of this gene is identical to the testis-specific cDNA sequence. It completely lacks introns and possesses characteristics of a functional processed gene.

The size of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex of Azotobacter vinelandii. Association phenomena.

Sedimentation analysis and light-scattering studies indicate that the aggregation state of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex of Azotobacter vinelandii in 50 mM potassium phosphate (pH 7.0) can be described in terms of a monomer-dimer equilibrium with a dissociation constant of 6.8 microM. The apparent molecular mass of the monomeric particle is 750 000-850 000 Da. The equilibrium is shifted to the monomeric species when pressure is applied on the system. Pressure-jump experiments yielded a relaxation time of about 70 ms. In the presence of 3% poly(ethylene glycol) 6000 and 10 mM MgCl2, further association takes place to a system that can be described in terms of dimer-tetramer-octamer equilibria. Upon applying a pressure of 80 MPa to this system these equilibria are shifted to the dimeric state but some monomer formation cannot be excluded. Release of pressure shows that the relaxation time of the dimer-tetramer equilibrium is less than 5 s, that of tetramer-octamer equilibrium is of the order of minutes. The isolated E2 component has a molecular mass of 2 000 000 +/- 100 000 Da; and thus consists of about 30 E2 peptide chains. Electron micrographs are similar to those of the E2 component of the Escherichia coli complex, which were interpreted as cubic structures with an octagonal symmetry. Upon addition of E1 to the pure E2 component, changes in the assembly occur and mixtures of large (E. coli-like, 22-45 S) and small (A. vinelandii-like, 11-18 S) subcomplexes are obtained. The two forms of the subcomplexes are in slow equilibrium (relaxation time 10-30 min). It is proposed that the E2 tetramer of the intact pyruvate dehydrogenase complex of A. vinelandii is represented by the corner structures of the isolated E2 component.

Carbon isotope effects on the pyruvate dehydrogenase reaction and their importance for relative carbon-13 depletion in lipids.

A method has been developed for the positional 13C isotope analysis of pyruvate and acetate by stepwise quantitative degradation. On its base, the kinetic isotope effects on the pyruvate dehydrogenase reaction (enzymes from Escherichia coli and Saccharomyces cerevisiae) for both of the carbon atoms involved in the bond scission (double isotope effect determination) and on C-3 of pyruvate have been determined. The experimental k12/k13 values with the enzyme from E. coli on C-1 and C-2 of pyruvate are 1.0093 +/- 0.0007 and 1.0213 +/- 0.0017, respectively, and, with the enzyme from S. cerevisiae, the values are 1.0238 +/- 0.0013 and 1.0254 +/- 0.0016, respectively. A secondary isotope effect of 1.0031 +/- 0.0009 on C-3 (CH3-group) was found with both enzymes. The size of the isotope on C-1 indicates that decarboxylation is more rate-determining with the yeast enzyme than with the enzyme from E. coli, although it is not the entirely rate-limiting step in the overall reaction sequence. Assuming appropriate values for the intrinsic isotope effect on the decarboxylation step (k3) and the equilibrium isotope effect on the reversible substrate binding (k1, k2), one can calculate values for the partitioning factor R (k3/k2: E. coli enzyme 4.67, S. cerevisiae enzyme 1.14) and the intrinsic isotope effects related to the carbonyl-C (k1/k'1 = 1.019; k3/k'3 = 1.033). The isotope fractionation at C-2 of pyruvate gives strong evidence that the well known relative carbon-13 depletion in lipids from biological material is mainly caused by the isotope effect on the pyruvate dehydrogenase reaction. In addition, our results indicate an alternating 13C abundance in fatty acids, that has already been verified in some cases.

Activities of cardiac and hepatic pyruvate dehydrogenase complex are decreased after surgical stress.

The work investigated the effects of surgical stress on the activities of cardiac and hepatic pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (active form, PDHa) in fed rats. PDHa activities in heart and liver were decreased within 4h of surgery with maximum inhibition at 24h after surgery. PDHa activities remained low until the fourth (liver) and eighth (heart) post-operative days. The decreased activities found at 4h and 24h after surgery were associated with increased plasma fatty acid concentrations, and inhibition of lipolysis resulted in reactivation of the enzyme complex. The results are discussed with reference to the control of pyruvate dehydrogenase activities by the oxidation of fat fuels and multisite phosphorylation in stress states, and its possible importance in glucose conservation after surgery and trauma.

[Pyruvate dehydrogenase deficit associated to the C515T mutation in exon 6 of the E1alpha gene].

INTRODUCTION: Pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) deficiency constitutes the most frequent metabolic origin of congenital lactic acidosis and is also responsible for a less usual form, found exclusively in females, which leads to a dysmorphic syndrome accompanied by severe cerebral malformations. The most common defect affects fraction E1alpha (gene Xp22.1-22.2). AIM: To report the case of a young female with PDH deficiency, dysmorphic syndrome, cerebral deformations and an unidentified mutation in the corresponding gene. CASE REPORT: An 8-month-old female with microcephaly, a narrow forehead, nasal hypoplasia, anteverted nostrils, thin lips, axial hypotonia, epileptic seizures and an umbilical hernia. Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain revealed intense supra- and infratentorial cortico-subcortical atrophy, ventricular dilatation and agenesis of the corpus callosum. Lactic and pyruvic acid concentrations were high both in blood and in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and the level of alanine was high in CSF. Muscular histology results were normal. PDH complex activity in fibroblasts and in muscle tissue, as well as that of the mitochondrial respiratory chain complexes in muscle homogenate, were found to be normal. A molecular genetic study of the gene for PDHE1alpha, both in formed elements in the blood and in fibroblasts, showed a C > T change in nucleotide 515 (C515T) of exon 6, which causes a P172L change in the protein. A study of 108 controls ruled out the possibility of a polymorphism. The parents did not have the mutation. CONCLUSIONS: The C515T mutation of exon 6 of the gene for PDH E1alpha is described. Normal activity of the PDH complex in fibroblasts and in muscle tissue does not exclude this condition.

Impaired insulin action in adipocytes of New Zealand obese mice: a role for postbinding defects in pyruvate dehydrogenase and insulin mediator activity.

This study investigated possible mechanisms underlying insulin resistance in the New Zealand Obese (NZO) mouse, an animal model for obese, non-insulin-dependent diabetes. Insulin binding, mediator generation, and action both at the level of glucose utilization and enzyme modulation were compared in adipocytes from lean control New Zealand Chocolate (NZC) mice and NZO mice during the development of the syndrome. Abnormalities of insulin stimulation of glucose transport and utilization in NZO mouse adipocytes were found which involved both decreased sensitivity and responsiveness to insulin. The defects were evident at an early age (4 weeks) and could not be attributed to differences in nonstimulated glucose metabolism, which was similar in the control NZC and obese NZO strains of mouse. Insulin binding to its receptor was only moderately decreased in adipocytes of NZO mice. Pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) activity of NZO mouse adipocytes was totally unresponsive to insulin in contrast to the impaired but still significant insulin stimulation of glucose transport and utilization, suggesting a postreceptor defect at the level of insulin stimulation of this enzyme. Insulin stimulated the production of a low molecular weight factor which activated pyruvate dehydrogenase in NZC mouse adipocytes (insulin mediator) but, paradoxically, caused a decrease in mediator production or activity in adipocytes from NZO mice. Thus, insulin either inhibited mediator production or stimulated generation of an inhibitory mediator in adipocytes from this strain. No evidence for the latter mechanism was found. This study demonstrates in adipocytes of NZO mice: (1) a receptor defect and (2) a postreceptor defect of insulin action at the level of pyruvate dehydrogenase activation.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Prediction of the immunodominant epitope of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex E2 in primary biliary cirrhosis using phage display.

Primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) is an autoimmune liver disease characterized by autoantibodies reactive with the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex. A conformational epitope has been mapped to aa 91-227 within the inner lipoyl domain of the E2 subunit (pyruvate dehydrogenase complex E2 (PDC-E2)). We have used phage display to further localize this epitope. A random heptapeptide library was screened using IgG from two patients with PBC, with negative selection using pooled normal IgG. Phage that contained peptide inserts (phagotopes) selected using PBC sera differed from those selected using IgG from patients with RA or polychondritis. Two motifs occurred only among the PBC-selected phagotopes; these were MH (13 sequences, 16 phagotopes) and FV (FVEHTRW, FVEIYSP, FVLPWRI). The phagotopes selected were tested for reactivity with anti-PDC-E2 affinity purified from four patients with PBC. Phagotopes that contained 1 of 15 different peptide sequences were reactive with one or more of these four anti-PDC-E2 preparations, whereas phagotopes that contained 1of the remaining 28 sequences were negative. The peptides (FVLPWRI, MHLNTPP, MHLTQSP) encoded by three phagotopes that were strongly reactive with all four preparations of anti-PDC-E2 were synthesized. Each of the selected peptides, but not an irrelevant peptide, inhibited the reactivity by ELISA of PBC serum with recombinant PDC-E2 and reduced the inhibition of the enzyme activity of PDC by a PBC serum. The peptide sequences, along with the known NMR structure of the inner lipoyl domain of PDC-E2, allow the prediction of nonsequential residues 131HM132 and 178FEV180 that contribute to a conformational epitope.

Impairment of pyruvate dehydrogenase activity by acetaldehyde.

The facial features that are characteristic of fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS) are strikingly similar to those seen in pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) deficiency. Furthermore, alcohol-induced central nervous system insult results in midline anomalies such as agenesis of the corpus callosum, which has also been described in several metabolic diseases, including PDH deficiency. The purpose of this work was to examine the effect of acetaldehyde on PDH in vitro. The activity of PDH was measured in the presence of acetaldehyde (10 microM-1 mM) by measuring the formation of the reduced form of nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide at 340 nm. Pyruvate dehydrogenase was separated by using the sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis technique after incubation with [1,2-(14)C]-acetaldehyde to detect the formation of covalent adducts autoradiographically. The effect of acetaldehyde on the phosphorylation of the complex was also determined autoradiographically after incubating of PDH with (32)P-adenosine triphosphate. The results of this study show that acetaldehyde impairs PDH activity by a mixed inhibition type mechanism (Kic=62.4+/-25.7 microM, Kiu=225+/-68 microM), which is not a result of the formation of covalent adducts with PDH, nor of a stimulation of phosphorylation or inactivation of the complex. Because PDH levels are low throughout development and that the competition between pyruvate and acetaldehyde may be enhanced due to ethanol-induced lowering of ambient pyruvate concentrations, we conclude that impairment of PDH may have a significant effect on the developing fetus.

[Interrelation between the content of thiamine phosphates and pyruvate dehydrogenase activity in the liver of rats with intensified lipogenesis].

Injection of thiamine (250 micrograms per 100 g of mass daily) to rats with alimentary intensification of lipogenesis decreases the pyruvate dehydrogenase activity in the liver, which is accompanied by an increase in the concentration of pyruvate and drop in the level of free fatty acids. Under these conditions the content of total thiamine is 1.5 times as high. The level of thiamine pyrophosphate and thiamine triphosphate rises significantly. When all parameters were determined in dynamics after a single thiamine injection, an inverse dependence is observed between the content of thiamine phosphoric esters, thiamine triphosphate in particular, and pyruvate dehydrogenase activity.

Proteinase-catalyzed activation of porcine heart muscle pyruvate dehydrogenase and identification of its cleavage site.

Porcine heart muscle pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH, EC 1.2.4.1) with subunit composition alpha 2 beta 2 catalyzes the initial decarboxylation step of an oxidative decarboxylation sequence of pyruvate. Highly purified PDH, was further activated several-fold by limited digestion with trypsin, Staphylococcus aureus V8 proteinase (V8) or papain. The activation with these proteinases required about 10 min to attain a maximal level, lasted 1/2-2 h and thereafter decreased gradually. Addition of an inhibitor of each proteinase resulted in an immediate cessation of any further changes in the enzymatic activity. The optimal pH of the proteinase-activated PDH was not affected. Proteinases increased the maximum velocity and the apparent Km values for pyruvate, but the Hill coefficients for pyruvate were unchanged. Proteinase-activated PDH was capable of associating two other component enzymes to produce large unit resembling the native complex. The Coomassie brilliant blue stained gels after SDS-PAGE showed that the PDH alpha subunit (41 kDa) was cleaved by trypsin or V8 into two major fragments (31 and 10 kDa), whereas PDH beta was unaffected. By amino-terminal sequence analyses of these fragments the trypsin cleavage sites were identified as Arg-273 and Arg-282 and the V8 cleavage sites were Glu-277 and Glu-280.

Molecular cloning and expression of the catalytic subunit of bovine pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatase and sequence similarity with protein phosphatase 2C.

After many unsuccessful attempts to detect cDNA encoding the catalytic subunit of bovine pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatase (PDPc) in bovine cDNA libraries, an approach based on the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was undertaken. Overlapping DNA fragments were generated by PCR from bovine genomic DNA and from cDNA synthesized from total RNA with synthetic oligonucleotide primers on the basis of experimentally determined amino acid sequences. The DNA fragments were subcloned and sequenced. The complete cDNA is 1900 base pairs in length and contains an open reading frame of 1614 nucleotides encoding a putative presequence of 71 amino acid residues and a mature protein of 467 residues with a calculated M(r) of 52,625. Hybridization analysis showed a single mRNA transcript of about 2.0 kilobases. Comparison of the deduced amino acid sequences of the mitochondrial PDPc and the rat cytosolic protein phosphatase 2C indicates that these protein serine/threonine phosphatases evolved from a common ancestor. The mature form of PDPc was coexpressed in Escherichia coli with the chaperonin proteins groEL and groES. The recombinant protein (rPDPc) was purified to near homogeneity. Its activity toward the bovine 32P-labeled pyruvate dehydrogenase complex was Mg(2+)-dependent and Ca(2+)-stimulated and comparable to that of native bovine PDP. An active, truncated form of rPDPc, with M(r) approximately 45,000, was produced in variable amounts during growth of cells and/or during the purification procedure.

Two lipoyl domains in the dihydrolipoamide acetyltransferase chain of the pyruvate dehydrogenase multienzyme complex of Streptococcus faecalis.

A fragment of DNA incorporating the gene, pdhC, that encodes the dihydrolipoamide acetyltransferase (E2) chain of the pyruvate dehydrogenase multienzyme complex of Streptococcus faecalis was cloned and a DNA sequence of 2360 bp was determined. The pdhC gene (1620 bp) corresponds to an E2 chain of 539 amino acid residues, Mr 56,466, comprising two lipoyl domains, a peripheral subunit-binding domain and an acetyltransferase domain, linked together by regions of polypeptide chain rich in alanine, proline and charged amino acids. The S. faecalis E2 chain differs in the number of its lipoyl domains from the E2 chains of all bacterial pyruvate dehydrogenase complexes hitherto described.

Putative mediators of insulin action: regulation of pyruvate dehydrogenase and adenylate cyclase activities.

Recent evidence suggests that certain actions of insulin may be mediated by the selective generation of chemically undefined intracellular substances. Incubation of rat liver particulate fraction with low concentrations of insulin enhances the release into the supernatant of a substance that stimulates mitochondrial pyruvate dehydrogenase. Higher concentrations of insulin release less stimulating activity. It is possible to resolve activities that stimulate and inhibit pyruvate dehydrogenase by differential ethanol extraction of the supernatant solutions. The elaboration of both factors is dependent upon the presence of insulin in a dose-dependent manner. Moreover, fractions that contain the pyruvate dehydrogenase-inhibiting activity also inhibit adipocyte basal and hormonally stimulated adenylate cyclase. The production of this adenylate cyclase inhibitory activity is also stimulated by insulin. Cyclase inhibition is virtually abolished when the nonhydrolyzable ATP analog, 5'-adenylyl imidodiphosphate, is included in the assay. These results indicate that the bimodal effects of insulin on certain functions may be ascribed to the generation of at least two distinct chemical substances that show opposing activities, which may operate by regulating phosphorylation reactions.

Regulation of glucose metabolism by altered pyruvate dehydrogenase activity. I. Potential site of insulin resistance in sepsis.

Regulation of the pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) complex has been demonstrated to be a key mechanism in the control of carbohydrate oxidation and conservation of glucose carbon. The effect of sterile inflammation and chronic sepsis (small and large abscess) on the activity of the PDH complex was examined in liver and skeletal muscle. Sepsis altered the proportion of PDH in the active, dephosphorylated form. In hepatic tissue, sterile inflammation leads to a 2.5-fold increase in the proportion of active PDH complex compared to fed control. The same increase in the proportion of active PDH complex was observed in rats with a small septic abscess. However, when the severity of septic episode was increased, the proportion of active PDH complex decreased relative to sterile inflammation or small septic abscess animals. A different pattern in the response to sterile inflammation and sepsis on the proportion of active PDH complex was observed in skeletal muscle compared to liver. In contrast to liver, sterile inflammation did not alter the proportion of active PDH in skeletal muscle. In addition, sepsis (either small or large septic abscess) resulted in a 3-fold decrease in the proportion of active PDH relative to fed control or sterile inflammatory animals. The decrease in the proportion of active PDH complex in sepsis was associated with a corresponding increase in the skeletal muscle acetyl-CoA/CoA ratio. The mechanism responsible for lowered PDH complex activity may have been due to increased PDH kinase activity, secondary to increased skeletal muscle acetyl-CoA/CoA ratios.

Thiamine dependency in a patient with congenital lacticacidaemia due to pyruvate dehydrogenase deficiency.

A patient with congenital lactic acidosis, muscular hypotonia and severe ataxia is reported. The aetiology of his disease was found to be a deficiency of pyruvate dehydrogenase (E.C. 4.1.1.1.). Thiamine treatment (1.8 g/day) was successful in correcting biochemical and clinical symptoms. The mechanism of its action is probably based on activation of pyruvate dehydrogenase through interference in the physiologic regulation.

Purification of the pyruvate dehydrogenase multienzyme complex of Zymomonas mobilis and identification and sequence analysis of the corresponding genes.

The pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) complex of the gram-negative bacterium Zymomonas mobilis was purified to homogeneity. From 250 g of cells, we isolated 1 mg of PDH complex with a specific activity of 12.6 U/mg of protein. Analysis of subunit composition revealed a PDH (E1) consisting of the two subunits E1alpha (38 kDa) and E1beta (56 kDa), a dihydrolipoamide acetyltransferase (E2) of 48 kDa, and a lipoamide dehydrogenase (E3) of 50 kDa. The E2 core of the complex is arranged to form a pentagonal dodecahedron, as shown by electron microscopic images, resembling the quaternary structures of PDH complexes from gram-positive bacteria and eukaryotes. The PDH complex-encoding genes were identified by hybridization experiments and sequence analysis in two separate gene regions in the genome of Z. mobilis. The genes pdhAalpha (1,065 bp) and pdhAbeta (1,389 bp), encoding the E1alpha and E1beta subunits of the E1 component, were located downstream of the gene encoding enolase. The pdhB (1,323 bp) and lpd (1,401 bp) genes, encoding the E2 and E3 components, were identified in an unrelated gene region together with a 450-bp open reading frame (ORF) of unknown function in the order pdhB-ORF2-lpd. Highest similarities of the gene products of the pdhAalpha, pdhAbeta, and pdhB genes were found with the corresponding enzymes of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and other eukaryotes. Like the dihydrolipoamide acetyltransferases of S. cerevisiae and numerous other organisms, the product of the pdhB gene contains a single lipoyl domain. The E1beta subunit PDH was found to contain an amino-terminal lipoyl domain, a property which is unique among PDHs.

Sizing of bovine heart and kidney pyruvate dehydrogenase complex and dihydrolipoyl transacetylase core by quasielastic light scattering.

Quasielastic light scattering (QELS) measurements on several preparations of bovine heart and kidney pyruvate dehydrogenase complex yielded hydrodynamic radii (rH values) ranging from 25.7 to 30 nm. Gel filtration chromatography removed stable aggregates and generated preparations that gave essentially the same rH values of 24.3 +/- 0.6 nm for both complexes. The data were characteristic of a monodisperse system and agree with estimates using cryoelectron microscopy [Wagenknecht et al. (1991) J. Biol. Chem. 266, 24650-24656]. The equivalent hydrodynamic sizes for the heart and kidney complex indicate that the larger number of pyruvate dehydrogenase components in the heart complex (M(r) congruent to 9 x 10(6)) than the kidney complex (M(r) congruent to 7.5 x 10(6)) associate without radial expansion of the heart complex. That accommodation of additional mass is consistent with the space available since even in the more massive complex greater than 80% of the volume within the dimensions of the complex must be occupied by solvent. Preparations of the core of the complex are primarily composed of 60 dihydrolipoyl acetyltransferase (E2) subunits whose inner domains associate to form a pentagonal dodecahedron that is readily observed by electron microscopy (particle radius 10.7-11.3 nm). However, the bulk of E2's mass is present in an exterior multidomain structure. These mobile outer structures are very difficult to observe by standard electron microscopy techniques. Preparations of the core formed stable aggregates that were removed by gel filtration chromatography. QELS measurements gave an rH of 20.1 +/- 0.8 nm.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
