The enthalpy change for the reduction of nicotinamide--adenine dinucleotide.

چکیده
The heat of the reaction NAD(+)+propan-2-ol=NADH+acetone+H(+) was determined to be 42.5+/-0.6kJ/mol (10.17+/-0.15kcal/mol) from equilibrium measurements at 9-42 degrees C catalysed by yeast alcohol dehydrogenase. With the aid of thermochemical data for acetone and propan-2-ol the values of DeltaH=-29.2kJ/mol (-6.99kcal/mol) and DeltaG(0)=22.1kJ/mol (5.28kcal/mol) are derived for the reduction of NAD (NAD(+)+H(2)=NADH+H(+)). These values are consistent with analogous but less accurate data for the ethanol-acetaldehyde reaction. Thermodynamic data for the reduction of NAD and NADP are summarized.

Verifying of Participation of Nitric Oxide in Morphine Place Conditioning in the Rat Medial Septum Using Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide Phosphate-Diaphorase (NADPH-d)
Background: Role of nitric oxide (NO) in morphine-induced conditioned place preference (CPP) has already been proposed in the rat medial septum (MS), but no molecular evidence has been provided to clear this fact. Methods: Effects of intraseptal injections of L-arginine and/or NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) on morphine place conditioning in Wistar rats were examined. Morphine (2.5-7....

Glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) from Streptomyces aureofaciens was purified and denatured in 6 M urea. Denaturation led to complete dissociation of the enzyme into its inactive monomers, 98% loss of the enzyme activity, about 30% decrease in the protein fluorescence and a 10 nm red shift in the emission maximum. Dilution of urea-denatured enzyme resulted in regaining of the enzyme acti...
متن کاملBilevel disulfide group reduction in the activation of c(4) leaf nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate-malate dehydrogenase.
The time course of thioredoxin-mediated reductive activation of isolated Zea mays nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphatemalate dehydrogenase is highly sigmoidal in nature. We examined the factors affecting these kinetics, including the thiol-disulfide status of unactivated and activated forms of the enzyme. The maximum steady rate of activation was increased, and the length of the lag in a...
متن کاملThe Effect of L-Glutamine on Pain Crisis Reduction in Patients with Sickle Cell Anemia and Sickle β°-Thalassemia
Background: A low level of L-glutamine, a precursor of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) in red blood cells (RBCs), is identified as an underlying mechanism for the potential decrement of the NAD redox and the incidence of pain crisis in sickle cell anemia (SCA). The aim of this study is to assess the impact of oral L-glutamine therapy on pain crisis reduction in patients with SCA and sic...
متن کاملThe effect of temperature on the oxidation-reduction potential of the diphosphopyridine nucleotide system.
A number of investigators have estimated the oxidationreduction potential of the diphosphopyridine nucleotide (DPN) system from equilibrium and thermal data (l-4). These data were obtained at several different temperatures ranging from 25-38”. Therefore, the results are not strictly comparable. The potential of the DPN system at 30” has been measured in this laboratory by potentiometric techniq...
