Abstract
Bacteria are able to prioritize preferred carbon sources from complex mixtures. This is achieved by the regulatory phenomenon of carbon catabolite repression. To allow the simultaneous utilization of multiple carbon sources and to prevent the time-consuming adaptation to each individual nutrient in biotechnological applications, mutants lacking carbon catabolite repression can be used. However, such mutants often exhibit pleiotropic growth defects. We have isolated and characterized mutations that overcome the growth defect of Bacillus subtilis ccpA mutants lacking the major regulator of catabolite repression, in particular their glutamate auxotrophy. Here we show, that distinct mutations affecting the essential DNA topoisomerase I (TopA) cause glutamate prototrophy of the ccpA mutant. These suppressing variants of the TopA enzyme exhibit increased activity resulting in enhanced relaxation of the DNA. Reduced DNA supercoiling results in enhanced expression of the gltAB operon encoding the biosynthetic glutamate synthase. This is achieved by a significant re-organization of the global transcription network accompanied by re-routing of metabolism, which results in inactivation of the glutamate dehydrogenase. Our results provide a link between DNA topology, the global transcriptional network, and glutamate metabolism and suggest that specific topA mutants may be well suited for biotechnological purposes.

Multiple Forms of Glutamate Dehydrogenase in Animals: Structural Determinants and Physiological Implications. BIOLOGY 2016; 5:biology5040053.

Abstract
Glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) of animal cells is usually considered to be a mitochondrial enzyme. However, this enzyme has recently been reported to be also present in nucleus, endoplasmic reticulum and lysosomes. These extramitochondrial localizations are associated with moonlighting functions of GDH, which include acting as a serine protease or an ATP-dependent tubulin-binding protein. Here, we review the published data on kinetics and localization of multiple forms of animal GDH taking into account the splice variants, post-translational modifications and GDH isoenzymes, found in humans and apes. The kinetic properties of human GLUD1 and GLUD2 isoenzymes are shown to be similar to those published for GDH1 and GDH2 from bovine brain. Increased functional diversity and specific regulation of GDH isoforms due to alternative splicing and post-translational modifications are also considered. In particular, these structural differences may affect the well-known regulation of GDH by nucleotides which is related to recent identification of thiamine derivatives as novel GDH modulators. The thiamine-dependent regulation of GDH is in good agreement with the fact that the non-coenzyme forms of thiamine, i.e., thiamine triphosphate and its adenylated form are generated in response to amino acid and carbon starvation.

Abstract
NAD-dependent l-glutamate dehydrogenase (NAD-GDH) activity was detected in cell extract from the psychrophile Janthinobacterium lividum UTB1302, which was isolated from cold soil and purified to homogeneity. The native enzyme (1,065 kDa, determined by gel filtration) is a homohexamer composed of 170-kDa subunits (determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis). Consistent with these findings, gene cloning and sequencing enabled deduction of the amino acid sequence of the subunit, which proved to be comprised of 1,575 amino acids with a combined molecular mass of 169,360 Da. The enzyme from this psychrophile thus appears to belong to the GDH family characterized by very large subunits, like those expressed by Streptomyces clavuligerus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (about 180 kDa). The entire amino acid sequence of the J. lividum enzyme showed about 40% identity with the sequences from S. clavuligerus and P. aeruginosa enzymes, but the central domains showed higher homology (about 65%). Within the central domain, the residues related to substrate and NAD binding were highly conserved, suggesting that this is the enzyme's catalytic domain. In the presence of NAD, but not in the presence of NADP, this GDH exclusively catalyzed the oxidative deamination of l-glutamate. The stereospecificity of the hydride transfer to NAD was pro-S, which is the same as that of the other known GDHs. Surprisingly, NAD-GDH activity was markedly enhanced by the addition of various amino acids, such as l-aspartate (1,735%) and l-arginine (936%), which strongly suggests that the N- and/or C-terminal domains play regulatory roles and are involved in the activation of the enzyme by these amino acids.

Abstract
Over the last decade, amino acid dehydrogenases such as alanine dehydrogenase (Ala DH), leucine dehydrogenase (Leu DH), and phenylalanine dehydrogenase (Phe DH) have been applied to the enantiomer-specific synthesis and analysis of various amino acids. In perticular, amino acid dehydrogenases from thermophiles have received much attention because of their high stability. Their productivity was enhanced and the purification facilitated by the gene cloning. The advances in biotechnological applications of these enzymes are based on fundamental studies concerning characteristics of the enzymes and reaction mechanism as described in this chapter. Further elucidation of the structure and function of these enzymes based on genetic engineering and protein engineering may enable their properties to be improved for their future uses in biotechnology.

Abstract
Psychrobacter sp. TAD1 is a psychrotolerant bacterium from Antarctic frozen continental water that grows from 2 to 25 degrees C with optimal growth rate at 20 degrees C. The new isolate contains two glutamate dehydrogenases (GDH), differing in their cofactor specificities, subunit sizes and arrangements, and thermal properties. NADP+-dependent GDH is a hexamer of 47 kDa subunits and it is comparable to other hexameric GDHs of family-I from bacteria and lower eukaria. The NAD+-dependent enzyme, described in this communication, has a subunit weight of 160 kDa and belongs to the novel class of GDHs with large size subunits. The enzyme is a dimer; this oligomeric arrangement has not been reported previously for GDH. Both enzymes have an apparent optimum temperature for activity of approximately 20 degrees C, but their cold activities and thermal labilities are different. The NAD+-dependent enzyme is more cold active: at 10 C it retains 50% of its maximal activity, compared with 10% for the NADP+-dependent enzyme. The NADP+-dependent enzyme is more heat stable, losing only 10% activity after heating for 30 min, compared with 95% for the NAD+-dependent enzyme. It is concluded that in Psychrobacter sp. TAD1 not only does NAD+-dependent GDH have a novel subunit molecular weight and arrangement, but that its polypeptide chains are folded differently from those of NADP+-dependent GDH, providing different cold-active properties to the two enzymes.

Abstract
The NAD(+)-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase (NAD-GDH) from Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 was purified, and its amino-terminal amino acid sequence was determined. This sequence information was used in identifying and cloning the encoding gdhB gene and its flanking regions. The molecular mass predicted from the derived sequence for the encoded NAD-GDH was 182.6 kDa, in close agreement with that determined from sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the purified enzyme (180 kDa). Cross-linking studies established that the native NAD-GDH is a tetramer of equal subunits. Comparison of the derived amino acid sequence of NAD-GDH from P. aeruginosa with the GenBank database showed the highest homology with hypothetical polypeptides from Pseudomonas putida, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Rickettsia prowazakii, Legionella pneumophila, Vibrio cholerae, Shewanella putrefaciens, Sinorhizobium meliloti, and Caulobacter crescentus. A moderate degree of homology, primarily in the central domain, was observed with the smaller tetrameric NAD-GDH (protomeric mass of 110 kDa) from Saccharomyces cerevisiae or Neurospora crassa. Comparison with the yet smaller hexameric GDH (protomeric mass of 48 to 55 kDa) of other prokaryotes yielded a low degree of homology that was limited to residues important for binding of substrates and for catalytic function. NAD-GDH was induced 27-fold by exogenous arginine and only 3-fold by exogenous glutamate. Primer extension experiments established that transcription of gdhB is initiated from an arginine-inducible promoter and that this induction is dependent on the arginine regulatory protein, ArgR, a member of the AraC/XyIS family of regulatory proteins. NAD-GDH was purified to homogeneity from a recombinant strain of P. aeruginosa and characterized. The glutamate saturation curve was sigmoid, indicating positive cooperativity in the binding of glutamate. NAD-GDH activity was subject to allosteric control by arginine and citrate, which function as positive and negative effectors, respectively. Both effectors act by influencing the affinity of the enzyme for glutamate. NAD-GDH from this organism differs from previously characterized enzymes with respect to structure, protomer mass, and allosteric properties indicate that this enzyme represents a novel class of microbial glutamate dehydrogenases.

Abstract
The NAD-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) (EC 1.4.1.2) from Laccaria bicolor was purified 410-fold to apparent electrophoretic homogeneity with a 40% recovery through a three-step procedure involving ammonium sulfate precipitation, anion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-Trisacryl, and gel filtration. The molecular weight of the native enzyme determined by gel filtration was 470 kDa, whereas sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis gave rise to a single band of 116 kDa, suggesting that the enzyme is composed of four identical subunits. The enzyme was specific for NAD(H). The pH optima were 7.4 and 8.8 for the amination and deamination reactions, respectively. The enzyme was found to be highly unstable, with virtually no activity after 20 days at -75 degrees C, 4 days at 4 degrees C, and 1 h at 50 degrees C. The addition of ammonium sulfate improved greatly the stability of the enzyme and full activity was still observed after several months at -75 degrees C. NAD-GDH activity was stimulated by Ca2+ and Mg2+ but strongly inhibited by Cu2+ and slightly by the nucleotides AMP, ADP, and ATP. The Michaelis constants for NAD, NADH, 2-oxoglutarate, and ammonium were 282 &mgr;M, 89 &mgr;M, 1.35 mM, and 37 mM, respectively. The enzyme had a negative cooperativity for glutamate (Hill number of 0.3), and its Km value increased from 0.24 to 3.6 mM when the glutamate concentration exceeded 1 mM. These affinity constants of the substrates, compared with those of the NADP-GDH of the fungus, suggest that the NAD-GDH is mainly involved in the catabolism of glutamate, while the NADP-GDH is involved in the catalysis of this amino acid.

Abstract
The amino acid sequence is reported for CNBr and tryptic peptide fragments of the NAD(+)-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase of Clostridium symbiosum. Together with the N-terminal sequence, these make up about 75% of the total sequence. The sequence shows extensive similarity with that of the NADP(+)-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase of Escherichia coli (52% identical residues out of the 332 compared) allowing confident placing of the peptide fragments within the overall sequence. This demonstrated sequence similarity with the E. coli enzyme, despite different coenzyme specificity, is much greater than the similarity (31% identities) between the GDH's of C. symbiosum and Peptostreptococcus asaccharolyticus, both NAD(+)-linked. The evolutionary implications are discussed. In the 'fingerprint' region of the nucleotide binding fold the sequence Gly X Gly X X Ala is found, rather than Gly X Gly X X Gly. The sequence found here has previously been associated with NADP+ specificity and its finding in a strictly NAD(+)-dependent enzyme requires closer examination of the function of this structural motif.

Abstract
Saccharomyces cerevisiae catalyses the asymmetric reductive biotransformation of a variety of compounds containing a carbonyl group or carbon-carbon double bond. Oxidoreductases participating in these reactions which have commercial potential in biotransformation processes are likely to have relatively broad substrate specificity. Important carbonyl reductases falling into this category include YADH- and yeast NADP-dependent beta-ketoester reductases. The enoyl reductase component of the FAS complex may have a role in asymmetric yeast reduction of carbon-carbon double bonds of unnatural substrates. Other nicotinamide-requiring oxidoreductases of yeast are also surveyed to rationalize observed biotransformations of whole yeast cells in terms of specific enzymes. Genetic and protein engineering may enable enzymes to be tailored to accept new substrates. A greater understanding of the enzymes and reactions involved will facilitate further optimization and exploitation of these catalytic systems in industrial processes.

Abstract
NAD-Glutamate dehydrogenase has been purified from mycelia of A. nidulans. The enzyme comprises subunits of 110 kDa. It is located in the cytosol. It is completely denatured by 1.0 M guanidine hydrochloride, and is not renatured by subsequent dilution. Isophthalate is a strong competitive inhibitor and the enzyme is also inhibited by thiol reagents. The properties of the enzyme were compared to those from other fungi in terms of size, sensitivity to inhibitors, intracellular distribution and mode of regulation, and were found to resemble most closely those of Neurospora crassa.

Abstract
The effects of growth phase and carbon source on membrane-associated phosphatidylinositol kinase in cell extracts of Saccharomyces cerevisiae were examined. Phosphatidylinositol kinase activity increased 2- and 2.5-fold in glucose- and glycerol-grown cells, respectively, in the stationary phase as compared with the exponential phase of growth. The increase in phosphatidylinositol kinase activity in the stationary phase of growth correlated with an increase in the relative amounts of phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate, the product of the reaction. The increase in phosphatidylinositol kinase activity was not due to the presence of water-soluble effector molecules in cell extracts as indicated by mixing experiments. Phosphatidylinositol kinase activity decreased in cell extracts of exponential-phase cells preincubated under phosphorylation conditions which favor cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase activity. Phosphatidylinositol kinase activity was not affected in cell extracts of stationary-phase cells preincubated under phosphorylation conditions.

Abstract
Cryptic trehalase from Saccharomyces cerevisiae was purified about 3000-fold. The recovery of 970% of the original "activity" indicated the removal of an inhibitor of the enzyme. Active trehalase, obtained through phosphorylation of cryptic trehalase by cAMP-dependent protein kinase, was isolated by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose. A major phosphorylated protein, with an apparent Mr of 86,000, was detected after SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. This protein band correlated exactly with the elution profile of trehalase activity and 32Pi incorporation into the enzyme on DEAE-cellulose chromatography. Partially purified active trehalase showed absolute specificity towards trehalose with an apparent Km of 4.79 X 10(-3) M. Both forms of the enzyme showed an apparent molecular weight of 160,000, by gel filtration. Centrifugation on a glycerol density gradient indicated multiple forms of trehalase-c, with Mr of 320,000, 160,000, and 80,000. After activation of each of these forms by protein kinase, a single form of trehalase-a was observed, with a Mr of 160,000. Trehalase-c appears to be a totally inactive form of the enzyme. The only mechanism of activation seems to be phosphorylation by cAMP-dependent protein kinase. When the protein kinase concentration was varied, at a fixed trehalase-c concentration, a sigmoidal activation plot was obtained. This result suggests the occurrence of multiple forms of cryptic trehalase.

Abstract
A protein phosphatase was isolated from the yeast, Candida utilis, which could reactivate (dephosphorylate) the phosphorylated form of the NAD-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase. The protein could also dephosphorylate casein, histone and kemptide (a heptapeptide corresponding to the phosphorylation site of liver pyruvate kinase). Reactivation of the phosphorylated glutamate dehydrogenase was stimulated by the simultaneous addition of NAD and L-glutamate; 2-oxoglutarate, NH+4 and NADH had no effect. The reactivation of phosphorylated glutamate dehydrogenase could be inhibited by phosphate, pyrophosphate and fluoride.
