The sensitivity of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) oxidase and succinoxidase to metal chelators, the generation of an electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) signal upon addition of these substrates, and the rate of formation of the EPR signal relative to the rate of the cytochrome reduction suggest the participation of nonheme iron proteins in the respiratory process of Escherichia coli...

Although, starting with Straub’s diaphorase (4), a number of enzymes capable of oxidizing reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) have been isolated from respiratory chain preparations during the past 25 years (5-9), it has not been possible to identify even tentatively any of these as a relatively unmodified, soluble form of the primary dehydrogenase of the mitochondrial NADH oxidase ...

We show that six mapped recessive lethal point mutations of the Notch locus affect mitochondrial enzyme activities: NADH oxidase, NADH dehydrogenase, succinate dehydrogenase and alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase. The mutant N264-40, which has the same morphological and embryological effects as the Notch8 deletion, demonstrates the same biochemical effects and dosage relations as Notch8. The ...

Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase and phosphoribulokinase exist as stable enzymes and as part of a complex in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. We show here that phosphoribulokinase exerts an imprinting on glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase, which affects its catalysis by decreasing the energy barrier of the reactions with NADH or NADPH by 3.8 +/- 0.5 and 1.3 +/- 0.3 kJ.mol(-1). Phosphori...

The sensitivity of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) oxidase and succinoxidase to metal chelators, the generation of an electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) signal upon addition of these substrates, and the rate of formation of the EPR signal relative to the rate of the cytochrome reduction suggest the participation of nonheme iron proteins in the respiratory process of Escherichia coli...

The NADH dehydrogenase of the Escherichia coli respiratory chain has been identified by the following properties: (a) its location in membrane vesicles; (b) its inhibition by AMP in a fashion similar to that of the NADH oxidase; (c) its specificity for NADH, but not NADPH, with the same Km for NADH as that of the NADH oxidase; (d) its sensitivity when membrane-bound to inhibition by dicoumarol,...

(2S,3S)-2,3-Butanediol ((2S,3S)-2,3-BD) is a potentially valuable liquid fuel and an excellent building block in asymmetric synthesis. In this study, cofactor engineering was applied to improve the efficiency of (2S,3S)-2,3-BD production and simplify the product purification. Two NADH regeneration enzymes, glucose dehydrogenase and formate dehydrogenase (FDH), were introduced into Escherichia c...

We describe some characteristics of the mode of formation of inhibitors of lactate dehydrogenase from commercial NADH. Inhibitor formation is time- and concentration-dependent and also varies with the commercial source of NADH. At least two inhibitory components can form in concentrated NADH solutions. One of these can be separated from NADH by chromatography on either diethylaminoethyl-celluos...
