NADP-specific glutamate dehydrogenase of Penicillium chrysogenum has a homohexamer structure.
The NADP-specific glutamate dehydrogenase of a high beta-lactam producing industrial strain of Penicillium chrysogenum was purified to homogeneity. The enzyme (M(r) = 339,000 +/- 34,000) was demonstrated to have a homohexamer quaternary structure with a subunit molecular mass of M(r) = 56,000 +/- 2000. The N-terminal sequence of the enzyme was also determined and was found to be highly homologous to other fungal NADP-specific glutamate dehydrogenase sequences.
