Nitro analogs of substrates for argininosuccinate synthetase and argininosuccinate lyase.
The nitro analogs of aspartate and argininosuccinate were synthesized and tested as substrates and inhibitors of argininosuccinate synthetase and argininosuccinate lyase, respectively. The Vmax for 3-nitro-2-aminopropionic acid was found to be 60% of the maximal rate of aspartate utilization in the reaction catalyzed by argininosuccinate synthetase. Only the nitronate form of this substrate, in...
متن کاملCrystal structures of human SIRT3 displaying substrate-induced conformational changes.
SIRT3 is a major mitochondrial NAD(+)-dependent protein deacetylase playing important roles in regulating mitochondrial metabolism and energy production and has been linked to the beneficial effects of exercise and caloric restriction. SIRT3 is emerging as a potential therapeutic target to treat metabolic and neurological diseases. We report the first sets of crystal structures of human SIRT3, ...
متن کاملSubstrate-induced inactivation of argininosuccinate lyase by monofluorofumarate and difluorofumarate.
Monofluorofumarate and difluorofumarate were tested as alternate substrates and inhibitors of the reverse reaction of bovine liver argininosuccinate lyase. Km and Vmax values relative to fumarate at pH 7.5, 25 degrees C, and 10 mM arginine are (monofluorofumarate) 1.4 mM and 5% and (difluorofumarate) 46 microM and 0.5%. As inhibitors, both of these compounds were shown to inactivate the enzyme ...
متن کاملMolecular definition of bovine argininosuccinate synthetase deficiency.
Citrullinemia is an inborn error of metabolism due to deficiency of the urea cycle enzyme, argininosuccinate synthetase [L-citrulline:L-aspartate ligase (AMP-forming), EC 6.3.4.5]. The disease was first described in humans but was recently reported in dairy cattle in Australia. Here we report the nucleotide sequence of the normal bovine cDNA for argininosuccinate synthetase and the mutation pre...
متن کاملMolecular analysis of argininosuccinate synthetase deficiency in human fibroblasts.
We have analyzed cultured skin fibroblasts derived from patients with argininosuccinate synthetase deficiency for alterations in gene structure, mRNA content, and protein structure. Genomic DNA was digested with the endonucleases EcoRI or HindIII, and the fragments were analyzed by Southern blotting and hybridization with a cDNA probe for argininosuccinate synthetase. The blot pattern is comple...
