Abstract
Mutations in the gene coding for membrane-bound fatty aldehyde dehydrogenase (FALDH) lead to toxic accumulation of lipid species and development of the Sjögren-Larsson Syndrome (SLS), a rare disorder characterized by skin defects and mental retardation. Here, we present the crystallographic structure of human FALDH, the first model of a membrane-associated aldehyde dehydrogenase. The dimeric FALDH displays a previously unrecognized element in its C-terminal region, a 'gatekeeper' helix, which extends over the adjacent subunit, controlling the access to the substrate cavity and helping orientate both substrate cavities towards the membrane surface for efficient substrate transit between membranes and catalytic site. Activity assays demonstrate that the gatekeeper helix is important for directing the substrate specificity of FALDH towards long-chain fatty aldehydes. The gatekeeper feature is conserved across membrane-associated aldehyde dehydrogenases. Finally, we provide insight into the previously elusive molecular basis of SLS-causing mutations.

Abstract
We report on synthesis concepts for the fabrication of various novel phenylboronate affinity materials based on polymethacrylate epoxy beads (Fractogel EMD Epoxy (M) 40-90 microm) and the testing of these functionalized polymer particles for selective trapping of a glycoprotein from a standard mixture containing a glycosylated and a nonglycosylated protein. Two inherently different approaches for the functionalization of the bare beads with boronate groups have been elucidated. In the first, the epoxy residues of the polymer particles were converted into reactive thiol groups which were subsequently used as anchor moieties for the immobilization of 4-vinylphenylboronic acid by radical addition or radical polymerization reaction. Three different ways for the generation of sulfhydryl groups have been examined leading to materials with distinct linker chemistries. In the second and more straightforward approach, the epoxy groups were reacted with 4-mercaptophenylboronic acid. The novel materials were thoroughly characterized by (i) quantitation of the sulfur content by elemental analysis, (ii) reactive sulfhydryls were determined in a photospectrometric assay, (iii) boron content was measured by inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometry, and (iv) the amount of reactive boronate groups was evaluated in a fast binding assay employing adenosine as test compound. A maximum concentration of 1.2 mmol boronate groups per gram dry beads could be achieved by the presented synthesis routes. Employing the novel phenylboronate affinity materials in capture and release experiments in the batch mode, a standard glycoprotein, viz. transferrin (Tf) from human serum was separated from a nonglycosylated protein, BSA. A commercial boronate affinity material based on 3-aminophenylboronic acid modified agarose gel was employed as reference material and was found to perform significantly worse compared to the herein presented novel polymethacrylate particles.

Abstract
Glutamate is implicated in numerous metabolic and signalling functions that vary according to specific tissues. Glutamate metabolism is tightly controlled by activities of mitochondrial enzymes and transmembrane carriers, in particular glutamate dehydrogenase and mitochondrial glutamate carriers that have been identified in recent years. It is remarkable that, although glutamate-specific enzymes and transporters share similar properties in most tissues, their regulation varies greatly according to particular organs in order to achieve tissue specific functions. This is illustrated in this review when comparing glutamate handling in liver, brain, and pancreatic beta-cells. We describe the main cellular glutamate pathways and their specific functions in different tissues, ultimately contributing to the control of metabolic homeostasis at the organism level.

Abstract
We report a study in Drosophila melanogaster of latitudinal clines for 23 SNPs embedded in 13 genes (Pgi, Gapdh1, UGPase, Pglym78, Pglym87, Eno, Men, Gdh, Sod, Pgk, Mdh1, TreS, Treh) representing various metabolic enzymes. Our samples are from 10 populations spanning latitude from southern Florida to northern Vermont. Three new clines with latitude were detected. These are the amino acid polymorphisms in the NAD-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase (Gdh) and trehalase (Treh) genes, and a silent site polymorphism in the UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase gene (UGPase). The result, when combined with the overall incidence and pattern of reports for six other genes (Adh, Gpdh, Pgm, G6pd, 6Pgd, Hex-C), presents a picture of latitudinal clines in metabolic genes prevalent around the branch point of competing pathways. For six of the seven amino acid polymorphisms showing significant latitudinal clines in North America, the derived allele is the one increasing with latitude, suggesting temperate adaptation. This is consistent with a model of an Afrotropical ancestral species adapting to temperate climates through selection favoring new mutations.

Abstract
Although the structure of glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) has been reported from various sources including mammalian GDH, there are conflicting views regarding the location and mechanism of actions of the coenzyme binding. We have expanded these speculations by photoaffinity labeling and cassette mutagenesis. Photoaffinity labeling with a specific probe, [(32)P]nicotinamide 2-azidoadenosine dinucleotide, was used to identify the NAD(+) binding site within human GDH encoded by the synthetic human GDH gene and expressed in Escherichia coli as a soluble protein. Photolabel-containing peptides generated with trypsin were isolated by immobilized boronate affinity chromatography. Photolabeling of these peptides was most effectively prevented by the presence of NAD(+) during photolysis, demonstrating a selectivity of the photoprobe for the NAD(+) binding site. Amino acid sequencing and compositional analysis identified Glu(279) as the site of photoinsertion into human GDH, suggesting that Glu(279) is located at or near the NAD(+) binding site. The importance of the Glu(279) residue in the binding of NAD(+) was further examined by cassette mutagenesis with mutant enzymes containing Arg, Gly, Leu, Met, or Tyr at position 279. The mutagenesis at Glu(279) has no effects on the expression or stability of the different mutants. The K(m) values for NAD(+) were 10-14-fold greater for the mutant GDHs than for wild-type GDH, whereas the V(max) values were similar for wild-type and mutant GDHs. The efficiency (k(cat)/K(m)) of the mutant GDH was reduced up to 18-fold. The decreased efficiency of the mutants results from the increase in K(m) values for NAD(+). In contrast to the K(m) values for NAD(+), wild-type and mutant GDHs show similar K(m) values for glutamate, indicating that substitution at position 279 had no appreciable effect on the affinity of enzyme for glutamate. There were no differences in sensitivities to ADP activation and GTP inhibition between wild-type and mutant GDH, suggesting that Glu(279) is not directly involved in allosteric regulation. The results with photoaffinity labeling and cassette mutagenesis studies suggest that Glu(279) plays an important role for efficient binding of NAD(+) to human GDH.

Abstract
It has been reported that the hyperinsulinism-hyperammonemia syndrome is caused by mutations in glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) gene that affects enzyme sensitivity to GTP-induced inhibition. To identify the GTP binding site(s) within human GDH, mutant GDHs at Tyr-266 or Lys-450 position were constructed by cassette mutagenesis. More than 90% of the initial activities were remained at the concentration of GTP up to 300 microm for the Lys-450 mutant GDHs regardless of their size, hydrophobicity, and ionization of the side chains, whereas the wild type GDH and the Tyr-266 mutant GDHs were completely inhibited by 30 microm GTP. The binding of GTP to the wild type GDH or the mutant GDHs was further examined by photoaffinity labeling with 8-[gamma-(32)P]azidoguanosine 5'-triphosphate (8-N(3)-GTP). Saturation of photoinsertion with 8-N(3)-GTP occurred apparent K(d) values near 20 microm for the wild type GDH or the Tyr-266 mutant GDH, and the photoinsertion of 8-N(3)-[gamma-(32)P]GTP was significantly decreased in the presence of 300 microm GTP. Unlike the wild type GDH or the Tyr-266 mutant GDH, less than 10% of photoinsertion was detected in the Lys-450 mutant GDH, and the photoinsertion was not affected by the presence of 300 microm GTP. The results with cassette mutagenesis and photoaffinity labeling demonstrate selectivity of the photoprobe for the GTP binding site and suggest that Lys-450, but not Tyr-266, is required for efficient binding of GTP to GDH. Interestingly, studies of the steady-state velocity showed that both the wild type GDH and the Tyr-266 mutant GDHs were inhibited by ATP at concentrations between 10 and 100 microm, whereas less than 10% of the initial activities of the Lys-450 mutant GDHs were diminished by ATP. These results indicate that Lys-450, but not Tyr-266, may be also responsible for the ATP inhibition; therefore, ATP bound to the GTP site.

Abstract
Incubation of glutamate dehydrogenase isoproteins (GDH I and GDH II) from bovine brains with perphenazine resulted in a time-dependent loss of enzyme activity. 2-Oxoglutarate and NADH, separately or together, gave partial but not complete protection against the inhibition. Although there were no detectable differences between GDH I and GDH II in inhibition by perphenazine in the absence of ADP, the sensitivities to the inhibition by the drug were significantly distinct for the two isoproteins in the presence of ADP. Low concentrations of ADP (0.05-0.20 mM) did not interfere with the inhibition of GDH I and GDH II by perphenazine. However, in the presence of high concentrations of ADP (0.5-1.0 mM), inhibitory effects of perphenazine on GDH isoproteins were significantly diminished as determined by enzyme kinetics and quantitative affinity chromatography on perphenazine-Sepharose. GDH I was more sensitively reacted with ADP than GDH II on the inhibition by perphenazine. Since physiological ADP levels can vary from 0.05 to > 1.0 mM depending on the rate of oxidative phosphorylation, our results suggest a possibility that two types of GDHs are differently regulated by the antipsychotic actions of perphenazine depending on the physiological concentrations of ADP. GTP and L-leucine, other well-known allosteric regulators, did not affect the inhibitory actions of perphenazine on bovine brain GDH isoproteins.

Abstract
It has been suggested that reactive lysine residue(s) may play an important role in the catalytic activities of glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH). There are, however, conflicting views as to whether the lysine residues are involved in Schiff's base formation with catalytic intermediates, stabilization of negatively charged groups or the carbonyl group of 2-oxoglutarate during catalysis, or some other function. We have expanded on these speculations by constructing a series of cassette mutations at Lys130, a residue that has been speculated to be responsible for the activity of GDH and the inactivation of GDH by pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP). For these studies, a 1557-bp gene that encodes human GDH has been synthesized and inserted into Escherichia coli expression vectors. The mutant enzymes containing Glu, Gly, Met, Ser, or Tyr at position 130, as well as the wild-type human GDH encoded by the synthetic gene, were efficiently expressed as a soluble protein and are indistinguishable from that isolated from human and bovine tissues. Despite an approximately 400-fold decrease in the respective apparent Vmax of the Lys130 mutant enzymes, apparent Km values for NADH and 2-oxoglutarate were almost unchanged, suggesting the direct involvement of Lys130 in catalysis rather than in the binding of coenzyme or substrate. Unlike the wild-type GDH, the mutant enzymes were unable to interact with PLP, indicating that Lys130 plays an important role in PLP binding. The results with analogs of PLP suggest that the aldehyde moiety of PLP, but not the phosphate moiety, is required for efficient binding to GDH.

Abstract
The purified glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) from Sulfolobus solfataricus showed remarkable thermostability and retained 90-95% of the initial activity after incubation at -20 degrees C, 4 degrees C, and 25 degrees C for up to 6 months. Unlike mammalian GDHs, the activity of GDH from Sulfolobus solfataricus was not significantly affected by the presence of various allosteric effectors such as ADP, GTP, and leucine. Incubation of GDH with increasing concentration of o-phthalaldehyde resulted in a progressive decrease in enzyme activity, suggesting that the o-phthalaldehyde-modified lysine or cysteine is directly involved in catalysis. The inhibition was competitive with respect to both 2-oxoglutarate (Ki = 30 microM) and NADH (Ki = 100 microM), further supporting a possibility that the o-phthalaldehyde-modified residues may be directly involved at the catalytic site. The modification of GDH by the arginine-specific dicarbonyl reagent phenylglyoxal was also examined with the view that arginine residues might play a general role in the binding of coenzyme throughout the family of pyridine nucleotide-dependent dehydrogenases. The purified GDH was inactivated in a dose-dependent manner by phenylglyoxal. Either NADH or 2-oxoglutarate did not gave any protection against the inactivation caused by a phenylglyoxal. This result indicates that GDH saturated with NADH or 2-oxoglutarate is still open to attack by phenylglyoxal. Phenylglyoxal was an uncompetitive inhibitor (Ki = 5 microM) with respect to 2-oxoglutarate and a noncompetitive inhibitor (Ki = 6 microM) with respect to NADH. The above results suggests that the phenylglyoxal-modified arginine residues are not located at the catalytic site and the inactivation of GDH by phenylglyoxal might be due to a steric hindrance or a conformational change affected by the interaction of the enzyme with its inhibitor.

Abstract
Incubation of two types of glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) isoproteins from bovine brain with o-phthalaldehyde resulted in a time-dependent loss of enzyme activity. The inactivation was partially prevented by preincubation of the GDH isoproteins with 2-oxoglutarate or NADH. Spectrophotometric studies indicated that the inactivation of GDH isoproteins with o-phthalaldehyde resulted in isoindole derivatives characterized by typical fluorescence emission spectra with a stoichiometry of one isoindole derivative per molecule of enzyme subunit. There were no differences between the two GDH isoproteins in sensitivities to inactivation by o-phthalaldehyde indicating that the microenvironmental structures of the GDH isoproteins are very similar to each other. Tryptic peptides of the isoproteins, modified with and without protection, identified a selective modification of one lysine as in the region containing the sequence L-Q-H-G-S-I-L-G-F-P-X-A-K for both GDH isoproteins. The symbol X indicates a position for which no phenylthiohydantoin-amino acid could be assigned. The missing residue, however, can be designated as an o-phthalaldehyde-labeled lysine since the sequences including the lysine residue in question have a complete identity with those of the other mammalian GDHs. Also, trypsin was unable to cleave the labeled peptide at this site. Both amino acid sequencing and compositional analysis identified Lys-306 as the site of o-phthalaldehyde binding within the brain GDH isoproteins.

Abstract
The ADP binding site within two types of bovine brain glutamate dehydrogenase isoproteins (GDH I and GDH II) was identified using photoaffinity labeling with [alpha-32P]8-azidoadenosine 5'-diphosphate (8N3ADP). 8N3ADP, without photolysis, mimicked the activatory properties of ADP on GDH I and GDH II activities, although maximal activity with 8N3ADP was about 75% of maximal ADP-stimulated activity. Saturation of photoinsertion with [alpha-32P]8N3ADP occurred at around 40 approximately 50 microM photoprobe with apparent Kd values near 25 and 40 microM for GDH I and GDH II, respectively. Photoinsertion of [alpha-32P]8N3ADP was decreased best by ADP in comparison with other nucleotides. With the combination of immobilized aluminum affinity chromatography and reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography, photolabel-containing peptides generated by tryptic digestion were isolated. This identified a portion of the adenine ring binding domain of GDH isoproteins as in the region containing the sequence, EMSWIADTYASTIGHYDIN. Photolabeling of the peptide was prevented over 90% by the presence of 1 mM ADP during photolysis, while other nucleotides could not reduce the amount of photoinsertion as effectively as ADP. These results demonstrate selectivity of the photoprobe for the ADP binding site and suggest that the photolabeled peptide with the residues Glu179-Asn197 is within the ADP binding domain of the brain GDH isoproteins.

Abstract
The structural differences between two types of glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) isoproteins (GDH I and GDH II), homogeneously isolated from bovine brain, were investigated using a biosensor technology and monoclonal antibodies. A total of seven monoclonal antibodies raised against GDH II were produced, and the antibodies recognized a single protein band that comigrates with purified GDH II on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and immunoblot. Of seven anti-GDH II monoclonal antibodies tested in the immunoblot analysis, all seven antibodies interacted with GDH II, whereas only four antibodies recognized the protein band of the other GDH isoprotein, GDH I. When inhibition tests of the GDH isoproteins were performed with the seven anti-GDH II monoclonal antibodies, three antibodies inhibited GDH II activity, whereas only one antibody inhibited GDH I activity. The binding affinity of anti-GDH II monoclonal antibodies for GDH II (K(D) = 1.0 nM) determined using a biosensor technology (Pharmacia BIAcore) was fivefold higher than for GDH I (K(D) = 5.3 nM). These results, together with epitope mapping analysis, suggest that there may be structural differences between the two GDH isoproteins, in addition to their different biochemical properties. Using the anti-GDH II antibodies as probes, we also investigated the cross-reactivities of brain GDHs from some mammalian and an avian species, showing that the mammalian brain GDH enzymes are related immunologically to each other.
