[Features of the interconversion of alpha-ketoglutarate--glutamate in brain mitochondria of exothermic animals during hibernation].
It has been found that there exists a correlation in the dynamics of changes in the amount of glutamate, alpha-ketoglutarate, glutamine, ammonia and activity level or alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase, NADP-glutamate dehydrogenase, glutamine synthetase and glutaminase in the brain of young carp in the process of winter starvation. It has been stated that under condition of energy deficiency and meaningful amount of ammonia in the organism of hibernating fish, its binding parallel with the known glutamine synthetase mechanism may proceed in the course of the NADP-glutamate dehydrogenase reaction which balance is shifted towards the glutamate synthesis. This reaction is supposed to provide the outflow of alpha-ketoglutarate from the citric cycle, which intensifies energy deficiency of the organism.
