چکیده

Extensive amino acid sequence homology has been found between nine tryptic peptides of pig heart lipoamide dehydrogenase (NADH:lipoamide oxidoreductase, EC 1.6.4.3] and the sequence of human erythrocyte glutathione reductase [NAD(P)H:glutathione oxidoreductase, EC 1.6.4.2]. The average homology is 40%. Six lipoamide dehydrogenase peptides are homologous with segments of the two parts of the FAD domain of glutathione reductase, one with the NADPH domain, and two with the interface domain. Thus, the homology extends throughout the molecule.

Isolation of a third lipoamide dehydrogenase from Pseudomonas putida.

Pseudomonads are the only organisms so far known to produce two lipoamide dehydrogenases (LPDs), LPD-Val and LPD-Glc. LPD-Val is the specific E3 component of branched-chain oxoacid dehydrogenase, and LPD-Glc is the E3 component of 2-ketoglutarate and possibly pyruvate dehydrogenases and the L-factor of the glycine oxidation system. Three mutants of Pseudomonas putida, JS348, JS350, and JS351, a...

An amino acid sequence in the active site of lipoamide dehydrogenase from pig heart.

1. The two cysteine residues forming the disulphide bridge that comprises part of the active site of lipoamide dehydrogenase from pig heart were specifically labelled with iodo[2-(14)C]acetic acid. 2. A tryptic peptide containing these carboxymethylcysteine residues was isolated from digests of reduced and S-carboxymethylated lipoamide dehydrogenase and its amino acid sequence of 23 residues wa...

Relationship of lipoamide dehydrogenases from Pseudomonas putida to other FAD-linked dehydrogenases.

Pseudomonas putida produces two lipoamide dehydrogenases, LPD-glc and LPD-val. LPD-val is specifically required as the lipoamide dehydrogenase of branched-chain keto acid dehydrogenase and LPD-glc fulfills all other requirements for lipoamide dehydrogenase. Both proteins are dimers with one FAD per subunit. LPD-glc has an absorption maximum at 455 nm, but LPD-val has a maximum at 460 nm. Compar...

The mechanism of the quinone reductase reaction of pig heart lipoamide dehydrogenase.

The relationship between the NADH:lipoamide reductase and NADH:quinone reductase reactions of pig heart lipoamide dehydrogenase (EC 1.6.4.3) was investigated. At pH 7.0 the catalytic constant of the quinone reductase reaction (kcat.) is 70 s-1 and the rate constant of the active-centre reduction by NADH (kcat./Km) is 9.2 x 10(5) M-1.s-1. These constants are almost an order lower than those for ...

Resolution of branched-chain oxo acid dehydrogenase complex of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO.

Branched-chain oxo acid dehydrogenase was purified from Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain PAO with the objective of resolving the complex into its subunits. The purified complex consisted of four proteins, of Mr 36,000, 42,000, 49,000 and 50,000. The complex was resolved by heat treatment into the 49,000 and 50,000-Mr proteins, which were separated by chromatography on DEAE-Sepharose. The 49,000-Mr...
