چکیده

Further investigation of the amino-acid sequence of bovine glutamate dehydrogenase (EC 1.4.1.3) has led to the correction of an earlier tentative sequence. The presently known sequence contains 500 residues in the subunit single peptide chain. The sequence of the homologous enzyme from chicken liver indicates that it contains 503 residues. Of the presently established 485 residues in the chicken dehydrogenase, only 26 residues differ from those in the bovine enzyme. The chicken dehydrogenase also differs in having an additional three residues at the amino terminus. The amino-terminal residue of the chicken enzyme was found to be cysteic acid.

The purification and physical properties of glutamate dehydrogenase from rat liver.

Glutamate dehydrogenase has been purified and crystallized from rat liver mitochondria and from whole rat liver preparations. No differences in the enzyme prepared by the two different methods have been observed and there is no evidence that more than one glutamate dehydrogenase occurs in rat liver. The pure enzyme has a molecular weight of 350,000 f 20,000 and consists of six to eight subunits...

Bovine liver glutamate dehydrogenase: tentative amino acid sequence; identification of a reactive lysine; nitration of a specific tyrosine and loss of allosteric inhibition by guanosine triphosphate.

A tentative but almost complete amino acid sequence for the subunit peptide chain of bovine liver glutamate dehydrogenase indicates a minimal size of 506 residues with a molecular weight of 56,100, in accord with the physical size of the subunit of 55,900. Inactivation with pyridoxal 5'-phosphate, followed by reduction with sodium borohydride, has permitted identification of the essential lysin...

Britain The Site at which 4 - Todoacetamidosalicylate Reacts with Glutamate Dehydrogenases

1. Bovine, porcine and chicken liver glutamate dehydrogenases were irreversibly inhibited by a tenfold excess of radioactive 4-iodoacetamidosalicylic acid at pH7.5. 2. Inhibition was accompanied by the covalent incorporation of 1.1 mol of labelled inhibitor/mol of polypeptide chain. Acid hydrolysis yielded N'-carboxymethyl-lysine as the sole labelled amino acid. No labelled S-carboxymethylcyste...

Amino-acid sequence of NADP-specific glutamate dehydrogenase of neurospora crassa.

A tentative primary structure of the NADP-specific glutamate dehydrogenase [L-glutamate: NADP oxidoreductase (deaminating), EC 1.4.1.4] from Neurospora crassa has been determined. The proposed sequence contains 452 amino-acid residues in each of the identical subunits of the hexameric enzyme. Comparison of the sequence with that of the bovine liver enzyme reveals considerable homology in the am...

Partial amino-acid sequence of NAD-specific glutamate dehydrogenase of Neurospora crassa.

Parts of the primary structure of the NAD-specific glutamate dehydrogenase [L-glutamate:NAD oxidoreductase (deaminating), EC 1.4.1.2] from Neurospora crassa are presented. Segments of the sequence representing 886 unique amino-acid residues have been determined; the largest contains 267 residues. There are only short regions of possible homology between this enzyme and the glutamate dehydrogena...
