Evidence for the presence of two nonidentical subunits in NAD-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase of pig heart.

چکیده
The NAD-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase [threo-D(S)-isocitrate:NAD(+) oxidoreductase (decarboxylating); EC 1.1.1.41] from pig heart is a multisubunit enzyme with a molecular weight of approximately 340,000. Electrophoresis of the enzyme in 10% polyacrylamide gels containing sodium dodecyl sulfate reveals two discrete bands with molecular weights of 41,000 and 39,000. The two bands exhibit approximately equal intensity when stained with Coomassie Blue, Amido Black, and Bromophenol Blue, suggesting that these polypeptide chains are present in equimolar quantities in the native enzyme. The same two-band pattern is observed when the sulfhydryl groups of the enzyme are blocked by alkylation with iodoacetate prior to electrophoresis, indicating that sulfhydryl oxidation is not responsible for the observed heterogeneity. Each of the subunits appears as a single band when eluted from the gel and again subjected to electrophoresis under the same conditions. Isocitrate dehydrogenase contains a total of 41 lysine and arginine residues per average subunit of 40,000 daltons. The observation of approximately 80 peptides upon paper chromatography and high voltage electrophoresis of tryptic digests of the enzyme is consistent with the existence of two distinct polypeptide chains. Dansylation yields two NH(2)-terminal amino acid derivatives: dansyl-phenylalanine and dansyl-alanine. It is concluded that the NAD-specific isocitrate dehydrogenase is composed of equal numbers of two nonidentical subunits.

NAD-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase from pig heart contains three types of subunits of slightly different molecular weights in an approximate ratio of 2:l:l. Ultrafiltration binding experiments at pH 6.1 indicate 1 binding site for every 2 subunits for several different ligands. The metal activator, Mn2+, binds to isocitrate dehydrogenase in the absence of other ligands ( K D = 115 p ~ ) . M...
متن کاملIsocitrate binding at two functionally distinct sites in yeast NAD+-specific isocitrate dehydrogenase.
Yeast NAD(+)-specific isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) is an octamer containing two types of homologous subunits. Ligand-binding analyses were conducted to examine effects of residue changes in putative catalytic and regulatory isocitrate-binding sites respectively contained in IDH2 and IDH1 subunits. Replacement of homologous serine residues in either subunit site, S98A in IDH2 or S92A in IDH1, ...

Bovine NAD(+)-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase was shown previously to contain four subunits of approx. 40 kDa (subunits 1-4) possessing different peptide maps and electrophoretic properties [Rushbrook and Harvey (1978) Biochemistry 17, 5339-5346]. In this study the heterogeneity is confirmed using enzyme purified by updated methods and from single animals, ruling out allelic variability. Sub...

Re-evaluation of molecular weight of pig heart NAD-specific isocitrate dehydrogenase.
NAD-specific pig heart isocitrate dehydrogenase was earlier reported, on the basis of gel filtration experiments, to have a molecular weight of approximately 340,000. In the present study, the enzyme is shown by equilibrium ultracentrifugation to have a weight average molecular weight of approximately 224,000 which can be attributed to a rapidly associating-dissociating protein system. The resu...
