Amine dehydrogenase of Pseudomonas putida: properties of the heme-prosthetic group.
There was approximately five times more hemoprotein (amine dehydrogenase) in crude extracts obtained from Pseudomonas putida grown on benzylamine than present in extracts from succinate-grown cells. The difference (reduced minus oxidized) spectrum of the purified enzyme possessed alpha,beta, and gamma bands at 550, 523, and 416 nm, respectively. The difference spectrum of the pyridine hemochrome derivative had absorption maxima at 416, 520, and 550 nm. These results, together with the fact that the heme group was covalently bound to the enzyme, indicated that the amine dehydrogenase from P. putida was a hemoprotein which contained heme c. The heme content was calculated at 2.01 mol/mol of enzyme. The enzyme was composed of two nonidentical subunits, but heme was present solely in the heavier unit. Carbon monoxide did not inhibit enzymatic activity, nor would it combine with the reduced or oxidized form of the enzyme. Amine dehydrogenase activity was inhibited by carbonyl agents with semicarbazide and cuprizone acting noncompetitively, whereas KCN and isoniazid inhibited by competitive and uncompetitive mechanisms, respectively. Spectral observations suggested that inhibition by these reagents was not due to an interaction with the heme moiety.
