[The isolation, purification, and some properties of NAD-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase from the organic acid-producing yeast Yarrowia lipolytica].
The NAD+-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase of the organic acid-producing yeast Yarrowia lipolytica was isolated, purified, and partially characterized. The purification procedure included four steps: ammonium sulfate precipitation, acid precipitation, hydrophobic chromatography, and gel-filtration chromatography. The enzyme was purified 129-fold with a yield of 31% and had a specific activity of 22 U/mg protein. The molecular mass of the enzyme was found to be 412 kDa. The enzyme consists of eight identical subunits with a molecular mass of about 52 kDa. The Km for NAD+ is 136 microM, and that for isocitrate is 581 microM. The effect of some intermediates of the citric acid cycle and nucleotides on the enzyme activity was studied. The role of isocitrate dehydrogenase (NAD+) in the overproduction of citric and keto acids is discussed.
