title: Reaction of the 2',3'-dialdehyde derivative of NADPH at a nucleotide site of bovine liver glutamate dehydrogenase.
abstract: The 2',3'-dialdehyde derivative of NADPH (oNADPH) acts as a coenzyme for the reaction catalyzed by bovine liver glutamate dehydrogenase. Incubation of 250 microM oNADPH with enzyme for 300 min at 30 degrees C and pH 8.0 yields covalent incorporation of 1.0 mol of oNADPH/mol of enzyme subunit. The modified enzyme has a functional catalytic site and is activated by ADP, but is no longer inhibited by high NADH concentrations and exhibits decreased sensitivity to GTP inhibition. Using the change in inhibition by 600 microM NADH or 1 microM GTP to monitor the reaction leads to rate constants of 44.0 and 41.5 min-1 M-1, respectively, suggesting that loss of inhibition by the two regulatory compounds results from reaction by oNADPH at a single location. The oNADPH incorporation is proportional to the decreased inhibition by 600 microM NADH or 1 microM GTP, extrapolating to less than 1 mol of oNADPH/mol of subunit when the maximum change in NADH or GTP inhibition has occurred. Modified enzyme is still 93% inhibited at saturating levels of GTP, although its K1 is increased 20-fold to 4.6 microM. The kinetic effects caused by oNADPH are not prevented by alpha-ketoglutarate, ADP, 5 mM NADH, or 200 microM GTP alone, but are prevented by 5 mM NADH with 200 microM GTP. Incorporation of oNADPH into enzyme at 255 min is 0.94 mol/mol of peptide chain in the absence of ligands but only 0.53 mol/mol of peptide chain in the presence of the protectants 5 mM NADH plus 200 microM GTP. These results indicate that oNADPH modifies specifically about 0.4-0.5 sites/enzyme subunit or about 3 sites/enzyme hexamer and that reaction occurs at a GTP-dependent inhibitory NADH site of glutamate dehydrogenase.
