title: [Kinetic properties of sorbitol dehydrogenase from calf liver cell cytoplasm].
abstract: The kinetic properties of sorbitol dehydrogenase from calf liver cell cytoplasm during sorbitol oxidation were studied at pH 7.0, 7.5, 8.0, 9.0 and 10.0. It was found that the shape of kinetic curves for NADH accumulation depends on pH and substrate concentration. At pH 7.0, 7.5 and 8.0 the enzymatic reaction obeys the Michaelis-Menten kinetics with Km of 3.3 x 10(-3) M. 2.3 x 10(-3) M and 2.08 x 10(-3) M, respectively. At pH 9.0 and 10.0 the vovs [So] curves have an "intermediate plateau". The Hill plots for this reaction reveal two slopes that are dependent on substrate concentration. The nH values for sorbitol (up to 2 mM) are 1.0 and 1.16 at pH 9.0 and 10.0, respectively. With a further rise in the substrate concentration, the nH value increases up to 2.4 and 2.18 at pH 9.0 and 10.0, respectively. This is suggestive of the existence of a slowly dissociating enzymatic system of the Np in equilibrium P type (where P is the oligomeric and p the monomeric forms of the enzyme); N approximately greater than 2. The vovs NAD plots are S-shaped at all pH values studied. The data obtained are discussed in terms of regulatory effects of sorbitol and acidity on association-dissociation of sorbitol dehydrogenase from liver cell cytoplasm.
