Effect of pH on the inhibition of the nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide-specific isocitrate dehydrogenase from baker's yeast by anions.
1. The sensitivity of the NAD(+)-specific isocitrate dehydrogenase from baker's yeast towards inhibition by anions decreases with decrease in pH. The patterns of the pH-dependence of the enzymic activity can be explained by this effect. 2. In the presence of a high isocitrate concentration, citrate, unlike AMP, has no antagonizing effect on the inhibition of the enzyme by anions. In the presence of AMP, citrate inhibits the enzyme at high isocitrate concentration and activates at low isocitrate concentration. 3. The effects on the enzymic activity of the previous incubation of the enzyme were studied in relation to the substrate concentration, the chloride concentration and the presence of citrate and AMP.
