Induction of hepatic mitochondrial glycerophosphate dehydrogenase in rats by dehydroepiandrosterone.
Feeding the thermogenic steroid, 5-androsten-3 beta-ol-17-one (dehydroepiandrosterone, DHEA) in the diet of rats induced the synthesis of liver mitochondrial sn-glycerol 3-phosphate dehydrogenase to levels three to five times that of control rats within 7 days. The previously reported enhancement of liver cytosolic malic enzyme was confirmed. The induction of both enzymes was detectable at 0.01...
متن کاملCoenzyme Q releases the inhibitory effect of free fatty acids on mitochondrial glycerophosphate dehydrogenase.
Data presented in this paper show that the size of the endogenous coenzyme Q (CoQ) pool is not a limiting factor in the activation of mitochondrial glycerophosphate-dependent respiration by exogenous CoQ(3), since successive additions of succinate and NADH to brown adipose tissue mitochondria further increase the rate of oxygen uptake. Because the inhibition of glycerophosphate-dependent respir...
متن کاملMicrocomplement fixation studies on the evolution of alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase within the genus Drosophila.
Antisera were prepared against purified alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.8) (alphaGPDH) from Drosophila melanogaster, D. virilis, and D. busckii. The immunological distances between the enzymes from the 3 species and those from 31 additional drosophilid species agree in general with the accepted phylogeny of the genus. These data permit an estimate that the subgenus Sophophora div...
متن کاملThe Α-glycerophosphate Cycle in Drosophila Melanogaster
"Null" mutations previously isolated at the alphaGpdh-1 locus of Drosophila melanogaster, because of disruption of the energy-producing alpha-glycerophosphate cycle, severely restrict the flight ability and relative viability of affected individuals. Two "null" alleles, alphaGpdh-1(BO-1-4), and alphaGpdh-1(BO-1-5,) when made hemizygous with a deficiency of the alphaGpdh-1 locus, Df(2L)GdhA, wer...
متن کاملThe reaction of mitochondrial L-3-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase with various electron acceptors.
1. The kinetics of the reaction of glycerophosphate dehydrogenase with a variety of electron acceptors have been investigated. 2. In all cases the reaction mechanism appears to involve a free modified-enzyme intermediate. 3. With some electron acceptors, the maximum velocity of the reaction and the K(m) for glycerophosphate are independent of the nature of the electron acceptor, whereas in othe...
