Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide glycohydrolase activity in guinea pig polymorphonuclear leukocytes.
نویسندگان
چکیده
An enzyme is present in extracts of guinea pig polymorphonuclear leukocytes which can catalyze the hydrolysis of pyridine nucleotides. The enzyme is equally active toward nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) or NAD phosphate, has an acid pH optimum, and is inhibited by either nicotinamide or isonicotinic acid hydrazide. This enzyme might be involved in the regulation of the pyridine nucleotide concentration within the leukocyte.

Function of h(2)o(2), myeloperoxidase, and hexose monophosphate shunt enzymes in phagocytizing cells from different species.
The effect of phagocytosis on the H(2)O(2) production and myeloperoxidase (MPO) activities of leukocytes from various species was investigated. The intracellular distribution of MPO, reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (6PGDH) of resting and phagocytizing guinea pig polymorphonuclear leukocy...
متن کاملThe Solubilization, Purification, and Properties of Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide Glycohydrolase from Ehrlich Ascites Cells.
Treatment of mice bearing an Ehrlich ascites tumor with nitrogen mustard (HN2) results in an increase in the level of activity of the enzyme nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide glycohydrolase (EC 3.2.2.5) (1, 2). Comparison of some properties of this enzyme in homogenates of Ehrlich ascites cells from nitrogen mustard-treated and from untreated mice failed to reveal marked differences between the...
متن کاملSome Properties of the Enzyme Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide Glycohydrolase from Mouse Ehrlich Ascites Cells.
In the past decade several studies have been carried out on the physical, chemical, and kinetic properties of partially purified preparations of the enzyme nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide glycohydrolase (NADase) from the tissues of several mammalian and bacterial species (l-7). No information is available concerning the properties of this enzyme from Ehrlich ascites cells. Recently it was fou...

A biological method for detecting streptococcal nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide glycohydrolase (NADG) is presented, based on its ability to inhibit the growth of Haemophilus parainfluenzae. Three hundred clinical isolates of beta-haemolytic streptococci were tested. All isolates producing NADG belonged to Lancefield's group A, C, or G.

Tumor nicotinamide adenine dinudeotide (NAD) glycohydrolase (EC.3.2.2.5) was purified 500-fold, and this preparation was used to study the influence of NAD glycohydrolase on the NAD + content and activity of crystalline glyceraldehyde-3phosphate dehydrogenase. The pseudomonomolecular velocity constant, k, for the hydrolysis of free NAD + was 5-fold that of the constant for the enzyme-bound NAD ...
