New reactive coenzyme analogues for affinity labeling of NAD+ and NADP+ dependent dehydrogenases
(1995)
Reactive coenzyme analogues ω-(3-diazoniumpyridinium)alkyl adenosine diphosphate were prepared by reaction of ω-(3-aminopyridinium)alkyl adenosine diphosphate with nitrous acid. In these compounds the nicotinamide ribose is substituted by hydrocarbon chains of varied lengths (n-ethyl to n-pentyl). The diazonium compounds are very unstable and decompose rapidly at room temperature. They show a better stability at 0 °C. L actate and alcohol dehydrogenase do not react with any of the analogues. Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase reacts rapidly with the diazonium pentyl compound. Decreasing the length of the alkyl chain significantly decreases the inactivation velocity. 3α,20β-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase reacts at 0 °C with the ethyl homologue and slowly with the propyl compound. The butyl-and pentyl analogues do not inactivate at 0 °C. Tests with 14C -labeled 2-(3-diazoniumpyridinium)ethyl adenosine diphosphate show that complete loss of enzyme activity results after incorporation of 2 moles of inactivator into 1 mole of tetrameric enzyme. 4-(3-Acetylpyridinium)butyl 2 ′-phospho-adenosine diphosphate, a structural analogue of NADP +, was prepared by condensation of adenosine-2,3-cyclophospho-5′-phosphomorpholidate with (3-acetylpyridinium)butyl phosphate, followed by hydrolysis of the cyclic phosphoric acid ester with 2 ′:3′-cyclonucleotide-3′-phosphodiesterase. Because of the redox potential (-315 mV) and the distance between the pyridinium and phosphate groups, this analogue is a hydrogen acceptor and its reduced form a hydrogen donor in tests with alcohol dehyd rogenase from Thermoanaerobium brockii. The reduced form of the coenzyme analogue also is a hydrogen donor with glutathione reductase. With other NADP +-dependent dehydrogenases the com pound has been show n to be a competitive inhibitor against the natural coenzyme. The acetyl group reacts with bromine to form the bromoacetyl group. This reactive bromoacetyl analogue is a specific active-site directed irreversible inhibitor of isocitrate dehydrogenase.
A new NAD⊕-isomer was prepared, in which the ᴅ-ribose of the adenosine moiety was sub stituted by the enantiomeric ʟ-ribose. As compared to nicotinamide-adenine-dinucleotide (NAD⊕) and NADH the coenzyme isomer (ᴅ,ʟ)-NAD⊕ and its dihydroform (ᴅ,ʟ)-NADH are far less tightly bound to lactate dehydrogenase and alcohol dehydrogenase from horse liver. In the presence of the second substrate (ᴅ,ʟ)-NAD⊕ and (ᴅ,ʟ)-NADH act as hydrogen acceptor and hydrogen donator, respectively, with lactate dehydrogenase and alcohol dehydrogenases from horse liver and yeast. Compared to NAD⊕ and NADH the Michaelis constants are always increased, the catalytic constants (V/Et) were found to be decreased except for the dihydroform reacting with alcohol dehydrogenase from liver.
In the course of the odontogenesis of bovine incisors several clearly distinguishable phosphohydrolase activities are observed in the pulp and in dental hard tissues. Using various substrates and inhibitors, unspecific alkaline phosphatase, two isoenzymes of acid phosphatase, Ca2+-activated ATPase and inorganic pyrophosphatase are characterized. The enzymatic activity of alkaline phosphatase in pulp and hard tissues is significantly high at the beginning of dentine and enamel mineralization. The specific activity of this enzyme decreases quite fast with the beginning of root formation, then more slowly, until it reaches a constant final value. Histochemical studies show that during mineralization the maximum of alkaline phosphatase activity is in the subodontoblasts. Lower enzyme concentrations are found in the stratum intermedium and in the outer enamel epithelium during that process.
The specific activities of ATPase, acid phosphatases and pyrophosphatase show little temporal variation during tooth development, but they also appear in a characteristic spatial pattern in the dental tissues.
