Abstract
Succinic semialdehyde reductase (SSAR) is an important enzyme involved in γ-aminobutyrate (GABA) metabolism. By converting succinic semialdehyde (SSA) to γ-hydroxybutyrate (GHB), the SSAR facilitates an alternative pathway for GABA degradation. In this study, we identified SSARs from Geobacter sulfurreducens and Geobacter metallireducens (GsSSAR and GmSSAR, respectively). The enzymes were over-expressed in Escherichia coli and purified to near homogeneity. Both GsSSAR and GmSSAR showed the activity of reducing SSA using nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate as a co-factor. The oligomeric sizes of GsSSAR and GmSSAR, as determined by analytical size exclusion chromatography, suggest that the enzymes presumably exist as tetramers in solution. The recombinant GsSSAR and GmSSAR crystallized in the presence of NADP(+), and the resulting crystals diffracted to 1.89 Å (GsSSAR) and 2.25 Å (GmSSAR) resolution. The GsSSAR and GmSSAR crystals belong to the space groups P2(1)22(1) (a= 99.61 Å, b= 147.49 Å, c= 182.47 Å) and P1 (a= 75.97 Å, b= 79.14 Å, c= 95.47 Å, α = 82.15°, β = 88.80°, γ = 87.66°), respectively. Preliminary crystallographic data analysis suggests the presence of eight protein monomers in the asymmetric units for both GsSSAR and GmSSAR.

Immunoaffinity purification and characterization of mitochondrial membrane-bound D-3-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase from Jaculus orientalis. BMC BIOCHEMISTRY 2008; 9:26. [PMID: 18826626 PMCID: PMC2572057 DOI: 10.1186/1471-2091-9-26] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/27/2008] [Accepted: 09/30/2008] [Indexed: 11/10/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The interconversion of two important energy metabolites, 3-hydroxybutyrate and acetoacetate (the major ketone bodies), is catalyzed by D-3-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (BDH1: EC 1.1.1.30), a NAD+-dependent enzyme. The eukaryotic enzyme is bound to the mitochondrial inner membrane and harbors a unique lecithin-dependent activity. Here, we report an advanced purification method of the mammalian BDH applied to the liver enzyme from jerboa (Jaculus orientalis), a hibernating rodent adapted to extreme diet and environmental conditions. RESULTS Purifying BDH from jerboa liver overcomes its low specific activity in mitochondria for further biochemical characterization of the enzyme. This new procedure is based on the use of polyclonal antibodies raised against BDH from bacterial Pseudomonas aeruginosa. This study improves the procedure for purification of both soluble microbial and mammalian membrane-bound BDH. Even though the Jaculus orientalis genome has not yet been sequenced, for the first time a D-3-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase cDNA from jerboa was cloned and sequenced. CONCLUSION This study applies immunoaffinity chromatography to purify BDH, the membrane-bound and lipid-dependent enzyme, as a 31 kDa single polypeptide chain. In addition, bacterial BDH isolation was achieved in a two-step purification procedure, improving the knowledge of an enzyme involved in the lipid metabolism of a unique hibernating mammal. Sequence alignment revealed conserved putative amino acids for possible NAD+ interaction.

Abstract
Two D-(-)-3-hydroxybutyrate (3HB) dehydrogenases, BDH1 and BDH2, were isolated and purified from a poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB)-degradable bacterium, Ralstonia pickettii T1. BDH1 activity increased in R. pickettii T1 cells grown on several organic acids as a carbon source but not on 3HB, whereas BDH2 activity markedly increased in the same cells grown on 3HB or PHB. To examine their biochemical properties, bdh1 and bdh2 were cloned and overexpressed in Escherichia coli, and their purified products were characterized. The kinetic parameters indicate that BDH1 is more suitable for converting acetoacetate to 3HB than BDH2, whereas BDH2 is more efficient for the reverse reaction than BDH1. Thus, R. pickettii T1 contains two BDHs with different biochemical properties and physiological roles: BDH1 for cell growth on organic acids other than 3HB and BDH2 for cell growth on 3HB or PHB.

Abstract
Mitochondrial membrane-bound and phospholipid-dependent D-beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (BDH) (EC 1.1.1.30), a ketone body converting enzyme in mitochondria, has been studied in two populations of mitochondria (heavy and light) of jerboa (Jaculus orientalis) liver. The results reveal significant differences between the BDH of the two mitochondrial populations in terms of protein expression, kinetic parameters and physico-chemical properties. These results suggest that the beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenases from heavy and light mitochondria are isoform variants. These differences in BDH distribution could be the consequence of cell changes in the lipid composition of the inner mitochondrial membrane of heavy and light mitochondria. These changes could modify both BDH insertion and BDH lipid-dependent catalytic properties.

Abstract
D-beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (BDH) (EC 1.1.1.30), a membrane enzyme, has been purified to homogeneity from dromedary (Camelus dromedarius) liver mitochondria. Our new purification method consisted of the solubilization of mitochondrial membranes by Triton X 100 and purification of BDH by two steps: DEAE-Sephacel and Phenyl-Sepharose. The molecular mass of the enzyme subunit size was 67 kDa. The purified enzyme is recognized by anti rat liver mitochondrial BDH antibodies. Furthermore, BDH activity was absolutely dependent upon phospholipids. BDH is also characterized by specific enzymatic parameters: an optimum pH of approximately 8 for the oxidation reaction, and approximately 7 for the reduction reaction and kinetic constant (Michaelis and dissociation constants) values of 1.07+/-0.13 mM for K(MBOH), 0.21+/-0.01 mM for K(MNAD(+)), 1.04+/-0.20 mM for K(DNAD(+)), 0.29+/-0.01 mM for K(MAcAc), 0.27+/-0.03 mM K(MNADH) and 1.12+/-0.18 mM for K(DNADH).

Abstract
We have cloned and sequenced the 3-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase-encoding gene (bdhA) from Rhizobium (Sinorhizobium) meliloti. The gene has an open reading frame of 777 bp that encodes a polypeptide of 258 amino acid residues (molecular weight 27,177, pI 6.07). The R. meliloti Bdh protein exhibits features common to members of the short-chain alcohol dehydrogenase superfamily. bdhA is the first gene transcribed in an operon that also includes xdhA, encoding xanthine oxidase/dehydrogenase. Transcriptional start site analysis by primer extension identified two transcription starts. S1, a minor start site, was located 46 to 47 nucleotides upstream of the predicted ATG start codon, while S2, the major start site, was mapped 148 nucleotides from the start codon. Analysis of the sequence immediately upstream of either S1 or S2 failed to reveal the presence of any known consensus promoter sequences. Although a sigma54 consensus sequence was identified in the region between S1 and S2, a corresponding transcript was not detected, and a rpoN mutant of R. meliloti was able to utilize 3-hydroxybutyrate as a sole carbon source. The R. meliloti bdhA gene is able to confer upon Escherichia coli the ability to utilize 3-hydroxybutyrate as a sole carbon source. An R. meliloti bdhA mutant accumulates poly-3-hydroxybutyrate to the same extent as the wild type and shows no symbiotic defects. Studies with a strain carrying a lacZ transcriptional fusion to bdhA demonstrated that gene expression is growth phase associated.

Abstract
The gamma-hydroxybutyrate biosynthetic enzyme succinic semialdehyde reductase (SSR) was purified to homogeneity from rat brain. Peptides were generated by tryptic cleavage and sequenced. PCR primers were designed from the amino acid sequences of two of the peptides showing a similarity (75-85%) to a mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase. A PCR-amplified DNA fragment was generated from recombinant plasmids prepared by a mass excision procedure from a rat hippocampal cDNA library and used as a probe to screen this cDNA library. One cDNA of 1341 bp had an open reading frame encoding a protein of 447 residues with a deduced molecular mass of 47967 Da. The enzyme was expressed in Escherichia coli. Immunoblotting analysis revealed the existence of a protein with the same electrophoretic mobility as the SSR purified from rat brain and with an estimated molecular mass of 45 kDa. Northern blot experiments showed that this enzyme was not expressed in the kidney or in the liver. In the brain tissue, a single but rather broad band was labelled under high stringency conditions, suggesting the presence of more than one messenger species coding for SSR. Hybridization in situ performed on brain tissue slices showed specific labelling of the hippocampus, the upper cortex layer, the thalamus, the substantia nigra, the cerebellum, the pons medulla and the olfactory tract. The recombinant enzyme showed catalytic properties similar to those of the SSR purified from rat brain, particularly in regard to its substrate affinities and Ki for inhibition by phthalaldehydic acid. Valproic acid did not inhibit the cloned SSR. This enzyme had 20-35% identity in highly conserved regions involved in NADPH binding with four other proteins belonging to the aldo-oxo reductase family.

Abstract
(R)-3-Hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (BDH; EC 1.1.1.30) is a lipid-requiring enzyme with a specific requirement of phosphatidylcholine for optimal function. The purified enzyme, devoid of lipid, can be reactivated with soluble lecithin or by insertion into phospholipid vesicles containing lecithin. In order to obtain insight into the mechanism of lipid activation, a C-terminal deletion mutant was constructed which contained 18 amino acids less than BDH. The purified deletion mutant had low, but detectable catalytic activity in the absence of phospholipid. However, the addition of either soluble lecithin or phospholipid vesicles containing lecithin had no effect on enzymatic function. Further experiments were conducted to determine if the deletion mutant had also lost its ability to bind to phospholipid vesicles and natural membranes. Our findings indicate that the mutant enzyme binds to both liposomes and rat liver microsomes. These results suggest that the binding of BDH to the phosphatidylcholine head group is independent of its interaction with the apolar core of the phospholipid bilayer.

Abstract
Cell extracts of Clostridium kluyveri grown on ethanol plus succinate contained a NAD(H) dependent 4-hydroxybutanoate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.61) at 66 U/mg. This enzyme was purified 42-fold under anaerobic conditions to homogeneity. Heat treatment, ion exchange chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, nondenaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, hydrophobic interaction chromatography on phenyl agarose, and gel filtration on Sephadex G-100 were used in the purification. The molecular mass of the enzyme was estimated to be 41.6 kDa by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and 86 kDa by gel filtration which indicates the active form of the enzyme is dimeric. The protein contains two atoms of Cu and one atom of Fe per monomeric unit. The enzyme exhibits maximum activity at pH 6.1 for the reduction of succinic semialdehyde and at pH 9.4 for the oxidization of 4-hydroxybutanoate. The Km values for NADH and succinic semialdehyde were 150 +/- 20 microM and 560 +/- 80 microM, respectively. In the reverse direction, the Km values were 670 +/- 80 microM and 55 +/- 16 mM for NAD and 4-hydroxybutanoate, respectively. The enzyme is inactivated by oxygen. The inactivation occurs with a t1/2 = 4.5 min at pH 8.2 and 30 degrees C.

Abstract
D-beta-Hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (BDH), a lipid-requiring enzyme, has been cloned into pUC18, expressed in Escherichia coli, and purified to homogeneity. The apoenzyme, i.e., the enzyme devoid of phospholipid, has no activity, but can be activated by phospholipid to a specific activity of 129 mumol/(min.mg). The functional properties of the enzyme expressed in E. coli were compared with the enzyme purified from rat liver. The specific activities, kinetic parameters, and phospholipid activation profiles were virtually identical. These results indicate that the expression of the enzyme in E. coli is a viable method for producing active functional BDH and should allow for the production of specifically altered BDH molecules.

Abstract
Cell extracts of Clostridium kluyveri, grown on ethanol plus succinate contained a succinyl-CoA:CoA transferase (0.28 U/mg), a coenzyme-A-dependent succinate-semialdehyde dehydrogenase (0.73 U/mg) and a NAD(+)-dependent 4-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (0.25 U/mg). The semialdehyde dehydrogenase, which catalyzed the NADPH-dependent reduction of succinyl-CoA to succinate semialdehyde, was purified 59-fold to homogeneity. A molecular mass of 115000 Da was determined for the native enzyme; SDS/PAGE revealed one protein band at 55,000, indicating that the active form is a dimer. The enzyme was highly specific for succinyl-CoA and succinate semialdehyde. The pH optimum was 7.0 for the reduction of succinyl-CoA, and 8.5 for the reverse reaction. Km values were determined for both the forward and reverse directions. The kinetic data suggest a ping-pong mechanism.

Abstract
An NADPH-dependent succinic semialdehyde reductase has been purified from bovine brain by several chromatographic procedures. The preparation appeared homogeneous on SDS/PAGE. The enzyme is a monomeric protein with a molecular mass of 28 kDa. A number of properties of the bovine brain enzyme, such as substrate specificity, specific activity, molecular mass, optimum pH, amino acid composition, and kinetic parameters, have been determined and compared with those reported for preparations from other sources. The results indicate that the enzyme isolated from bovine brain in the present study is different from those reported for preparations from other sources. The inhibition kinetic patterns obtained when the products of the reaction or substrate analogs are used as inhibitor of the reaction catalyzed by the enzyme are consistent with an ordered sequential mechanism involving the formation of an intermediate ternary complex and in which NADPH is the first substrate to bind the enzyme.

Abstract
The complete amino acid sequence of human heart (R)-3-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.30) has been deduced from the nucleotide sequence of cDNA clones. This mitochondrial enzyme has an absolute and specific requirement of phosphatidylcholine for enzymic activity (allosteric activator) and is an important prototype of lipid-requiring enzymes. Despite extensive studies, the primary sequence has not been available and is now reported. The mature form of the enzyme consists of 297 amino acids (predicted M(r) of 33,117), does not appear to contain any transmembrane helices, and is homologous with the family of short-chain alcohol dehydrogenases (SC-ADH) (Persson, B., Krook, M., and Jörnvall, H. (1991) Eur. J. Biochem. 200, 537-543) (30% residue identity with human 17 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase). The first two-thirds of the enzyme includes both putative coenzyme binding and active site conserved residues and exhibits a predicted secondary structure motif (alternating alpha-helices and beta-sheet) characteristic of SC-ADH. Bovine heart peptide sequences (174 residues in nine sequences determined by microsequencing) have extensive homology (89% identical residues) with the deduced human heart sequence. The C-terminal third (Asn-194 to Arg-297) shows little sequence homology with the SC-ADH and likely contains elements that determine the substrate specificity for the enzyme including the phospholipid (phosphatidylcholine) binding site(s). Northern blot analysis identifies a 1.3-kilobase mRNA encoding the enzyme in heart tissue.

Abstract
D-3-Hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (BDH) is an NAD(+)-dependent dehydrogenase of the mitochondrial inner membrane involved in the energetic balance between the liver and peripheral organs in mammals. It allows the conversion of ketone bodies (acetoacetate and D-3-hydroxybutyrate) and it is one of the best documented lipid-requiring enzymes with a dependence on lecithins. After release of proteins from the membrane by phospholipase A2 treatment of salt-treated mitochondria, the rat liver enzyme is absorbed on controlled-pore glass beads. After batch washing, the enzyme, devoid of lipids (apoBDH), is specifically eluted at pH 8.05-8.15 with a 0.1 M Tris-1 M LiBr buffer under reducing conditions (5 mM dithiothreitol). It appears that during BDH absorption, the glass beads mimic the phospholipid surface of biomembranes.

Abstract
The properties of D-beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (BDH) from rat liver and brain mitochondria were compared to determine if isozymes of this enzyme exist in these tissues. The BDHs from these tissues behaved similarly during the purification process. The enzymes were indistinguishable by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide or acid-urea-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and they had identical isoelectric points. The BDHs from rat liver and brain were also quite similar in functional parameters determined by kinetic analysis and phospholipid activation of apo-BDH (i.e., the lipid-free enzyme). Antiserum against rat liver BDH inhibited both enzymes to an equivalent extent in a titration assay. The enzymes had similar patterns of peptide mapping by partial digestion with Staphylococcus aureus V8 protease, followed by immunoblotting using antiserum against the liver enzyme. These results suggest that the BDHs in rat liver and brain are very similar and possibly identical.

Abstract
Two forms of succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase have been isolated in Klebsiella pneumoniae M5a1. The two enzymes could be separated by filtration on Sephacryl S-300 and their apparent molecular weights were approx. 275,000 and 300,000. The large enzyme is specific for NADP. The smaller enzyme, which is induced by growth on 3-hydroxyphenylacetic acid, 4-hydroxyphenylacetic acid, 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid and gamma-aminobutyrate, has been purified to 96% homogeneity by affinity chromatography. The NAD-linked succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase was able to use NADP as cofactor. Its induction is coordinated with 3- and 4-hydroxylase, the enzymes which initiate degradation of 3- and 4-hydroxyphenylacetic acid. The NAD-linked form is also induced by exogenous succinic semialdehyde. The large enzyme is specific for NADP and has been isolated from a defective mutant which lacked the activity of the NAD-linked succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase. Activity and stability conditions and true K m values for substrates and cosubstrates of the two enzymes were determined. Some aspects of the induction of the NAD-linked enzyme participating in the metabolism of 4-hydroxyphenylacetic and gamma-aminobutyrate were studied.

Electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulphate gave rise to a molecular weight of 53,000, indicating that the native enzyme is dimeric. Under standard assay conditions this enzyme acts preferentially with NAD but reduces NADP at 9% of the rate observed for NAD. The large enzyme, which is dependent on NADP, is induced by growth on putrescine and its induction is highly coordinated with putrescine: 2-oxoglutarate transaminase, gamma-amino-butyraldehyde dehydrogenase and gamma-aminobutyrate: 2-oxoglutarate transaminase activities. Activity and stability conditions and true Km values for substrate and cosubstrates of the two enzymes were determined.

Abstract
3-Hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase is a lipid-requiring enzyme with an absolute requirement of phosphatidylcholine for enzymatic activity. Purification of the enzyme to homogeneity from bovine heart mitochondria was described more than a decade ago [H. G. Bock and S. Fleischer (1975) J. Biol. Chem. 250, 5774-5781]. We have modified the purification procedure so that it is faster, the yield has been improved, and the specific activity is greater by approximately 50%. The updated procedure has also been applied to isolate the enzyme from rat liver mitochondria. Characteristics of the enzyme from bovine heart and rat liver mitochondria have been compared and found to be similar with respect to: (1) purification characteristics; (2) amino acid composition; (3) pH optimum for enzymatic activity; (4) kinetic characteristics; (5) molecular weight as determined by sedimentation equilibrium in guanidine hydrochloride; (6) peptide maps; (7) immunological cross-reactivity. These studies show that 3-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase from bovine heart and rat liver mitochondria, though similar, are not identical.

Abstract
The enzymic determination of D-3-hydroxybutyrate and acetoacetate normally involves the use of 3-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (HBDH, EC 1.1.1.30) of bacterial origin. We show that HBDH from Rhodopseudomonas spheroides (BCL, grade II) contains a 3-hydroxyisobutyrate dehydrogenase (HIBDH) activity: activity with 3-hydroxyisobutyrate as substrate was greater than 10% of that with 3-hydroxybutyrate. However, HBDH could be prepared essentially free of HIBDH activity by incubation at 37 degrees C in the presence of 1 mM-CaCl2, to produce an enzyme preparation that may be used for the specific determination of 3-hydroxybutyrate. Use of the purified enzyme preparations indicated that a major product of valine metabolism in hemidiaphragms from 40 h-starved rats was 3-hydroxyisobutyrate rather than 3-hydroxybutyrate.

Abstract
D(-)beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (BDH) purified from bovine heart mitochondria contains essential thiol and carboxyl groups. A tryptic BDH peptide labeled at an essential thiol with [3H]N-ethylmaleimide (NEM), and another tryptic peptide labeled at an essential carboxyl with N,N'-dicyclohexyl [14C]carbodiimide (DCCD), were isolated and sequenced. The peptide labeled with [3H]NEM had the sequence Met.Glu.Ser.Tyr.Cys*.Thr.Ser. Gly.Ser.Thr.Asp.Thr.Ser.Pro.Val.Ile.Lys. The label was at Cys. The same peptide was isolated from tryptic digests of BDH labeled at its nucleotide-binding site with the photoaffinity labeling reagent, arylazido- -[3-3H] alanyl-NAD. These results suggest that the essential thiol of BDH is located at its nucleotide-binding site, and agree with our previous observation that NAD and NADH protect BDH against inhibition by thiol modifiers. The [14C]DCCD-labeled peptide had the sequence Glu.Val.Ala.Glu*.Val. Asn. Leu.Trp.Gly.Thr.Val.Arg. DCCD appeared to modify the glutamic acid residue marked by an asterisk. Sequence analogies between these peptides and other proteins have been discussed.

Abstract
Data presented in this paper suggest that D-(-)-beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (BDH) purified from bovine heart mitochondria contains an essential carboxyl group and an essential histidyl residue at or near the active site. Lactate and malate dehydrogenases, which catalyze reactions analogous to that catalyzed by BDH, also contain an aspartyl and a histidyl residue at the active site [Birktoft, J.J., & Banaszak, L.J. (1983) J. Biol. Chem. 258, 472-482]. In addition, all three enzymes contain an essential arginyl residue, apparently concerned with electrostatic interaction with their respective carboxylic acid substrates, and promote ternary adduct formation involving the enzyme, NAD, and sulfite.

Abstract
A new, rapid and efficient procedure for the purification of the mitochondrial enzyme beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.30) to homogeneity is described. It involves the following steps. The mitochondria are solubilized with potassium cholate and the 100 000 X g supernate is fractionated with ammonium sulfate. This is followed by precipitation of the enzyme at pH 5.2 and then selective solubilization at pH 8.8. This key step removes eighty percent of the contaminating proteins and allows subsequent DEAE-Sepharose and glass bead column chromatography to be performed in the absence of detergents. The overall yield is consistently around 35% and the purified protein is homogeneous on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The purified enzyme is absolutely dependent upon phosphatidylcholine for activity.

Abstract
Many standard procedures for the purification of proteins in the laboratory do not readily lend themselves to scaling up, whereas, on the other hand, some techniques relatively unsatisfactory in the laboratory are much more effective on a large scale. When producing gram or kilogram quantities of enzymes for use over an extended period, the storage properties and general tractability of the purified products become increasingly important. Hence enzymes from thermophilic sources frequently have advantages over those from mesophiles. The possible economic advantages of simultaneous large-scale multi-enzyme isolation over separate individual enzyme purifications are evaluated. Batchwise adsorption and elution from ion-exchange celluloses frequently replace traditional precipitation techniques in the early stages of a large-scale purification. Dialysis is replaced by concentration, dilution and reconcentration with the use of hollow-fibre ultrafiltration equipment. Antiphonally direct scaling-up of column chromatographic procedures is usually possible. Modifications to column geometry to maximize flow rates are often desirable but purification factors and recoveries comparable with those obtained on the laboratory scale can be achieved relatively easily. Classical affinity chromatographic techniques have not proved so amenable to large-scale work, mainly because of the enormous expense and rather short life of the matrices. However, the quasi-affinity chromatography afforded by the triazine dye conjugates has proved of great benefit. The materials are cheap to prepare. The coupling procedures are both simple and rapid and do not involve the use of noxious chemicals such as cyanogen bromide. Moreover the triazine linkage is more stable under a variety of conditions than the isourea formed in cyanogen bromide coupling. Considerable further exploitation of these versatile matrices is expected.

Abstract
3-Hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.30) and malate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.37) were purified to homogeneity on a large scale involving only two sequential affinity-chromatography steps on two triazine dye-Sepharose matrices. Recoveries of both enzymes were in excess of 60%. Malate dehydrogenase could also be purified by a combination of triazine dye affinity chromatography and gel filtration on Ultrogel AcA-44, but this offered no significant advantage over the purely affinity procedure.

Abstract
D(-)-beta-Hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase was purified from Zoogloea ramigera I-16-M to electrophoretic homogeneity. The molecular weight of the enzyme as determined by Sephadex G-200 gel filtration was 112,000, and the monomer molecular weight estimated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate was 28,000, indicating that the native enzyme is a tetramer with four identical subunits. The enzyme showed a pH optimum at 8.0 in the oxidation reaction, and a broad pH optimum (5.5-7.5) in the reduction reaction. The Km values for D(-)-beta-hydroxybutyrate and NAD in the oxidation reaction were 3.2 X 10(-4) M and 5.7 X 10(-5) M, respectively. The Km value for acetoacetate in the reduction reaction was 1.5 X 10(-4) M and that for NADH was 1.5 X 10(-5) M. Acetyl CoA, D-lactate, and 2-hydroxybutyrate were effective inhibitors for the oxidation of D(-)-beta-hydroxybutyrate. The enzyme was sensitive to the inhibitory actions of sulfhydryl reagents such as p-chloromercuribenzoic acid, 5,5'-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoic acid) and HgCl2.

Abstract
A study of the ultrastructural localization of 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (3 beta-HSD), 11 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (11 beta-HSD), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PD), beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (beta-HBD), NADH diaphorase (NADH-D) and NADPH diaphorase (NADPH-D) in the guinea-pig testis is reported. The procedures employed included short immersion or perfusion fixation with aldehydes followed by incubation of small blocks in a tetrazolium salt or a ferricyanide medium. The effects of incubation conditions were investigated, and a reaction medium for the ultracytochemical demonstration of 11 beta-HSD is described. Using suitable controls, evidence for the specificity of the cytochemical reactions is presented. It was found that all the enzymes studied were present in both the Leydig and Sertoli cells of the guinea-pig testis and that the intracellular distribution pattern for each enzyme was independent of the cell type. Using tetrazolium salt techniques, both 3 beta-HSD and 11 beta-HSD activities were localized on or in membranes of smooth endoplasmic reticulum and within the mitochondria. With the ferricyanide techniques, G-6-PD activity was found to be associated mainly with the smooth endoplasmic reticulum membranes, while beta-HBD activity was limited to mitochondria. With both the tetrazolium salt and ferricyanide techniques, the reaction products for NADH-D and NADPH-D activities showed localizations which were similar to those observed for the steroid dehydrogenases.

Abstract
beta-Hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.30) was purified 145-fold from Mycobacterium phlei ATCC354 by ammonium sulphate fractionation and DEAE-cellulose chromatography. The pH optima for oxidation and reduction reactions were 8.4 and 6.8 respectively. The purified enzyme was specific for NAD, NADH, acetoacetate and D(-)-beta-hydroxybutyrate. Km values for DL-beta-hydroxybutyrate and NAD were 7.4 mM and 0.66 mM respectively. The enzyme was inactivated by mercurial thiol inhibitors and by heat, but could be protected by NADH, Ca2+ and partially by Mn2+. The enzyme did not require metal ions and was insensitive to EDTA, glutathione, dithiothreitol, beta-mercaptoethanol and cysteine.

Abstract
In this inestigation, a determination of the isoenzyme contents of LDH and HBD activities in lactate dehydrogenase preparations and the differences in the interaction of these preparations with NAD analogues were examined. The results obtained were as follows. 1. The activity ratio between oxidation and reduction in LDH reaction is shown to be similar in both H4 and M4 preparations, whereas for HBD activity, the ratio seems to be lower in the M4 preparation than in H4(H4/M = 1/2). 2. NAD and its analogues (NXD, TNAD, and TNXD) are shown to be useful coenzymes for the LDH reaction, while 3-acetyl derivatives appear to be unsuitable for this purpose because of their lower activity. HBD activity with 3-acetyl NXD is shown to be higher than with TNAD or TNXD. among these NAD analogues, 3-acetyl NXD gives the highest HBD activity, especially in the M4 preparation. 3. The LDH activity of H4 relative to M4 preparations has been shown to be maximal when 450 mM lactic acid with NAD or 15 mM lactic acid with TNXD are used. Under these conditions, the contents of LDH subunits can be estimated with considerable reliability. As to HBD activity, the content of LDH subunit having HBD activity has been estimated by determing the enzyme activity under conditions in which either 300 mM 2-hydroxybutyrate with 3-acetyl NXD or 15 mM 2-hydroxybutyrate with NAD are employed.

Abstract
Chromatography on controlled pore glass in combination with chaotropic buffers makes possible, in a single step, protein purifications of several hundredfold. The new emphasis is on highly selective controllable adsorption. The method is useful for the purification and concentration of proteins from large volumes of complex media and for the purification of proteins that are poorly soluble or tend to aggregate in aqueous solution D-(-)-Beta-Hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase, a mitochondrial membrane-bound protein, several soluble proteins, and staphylococcal alpha toxin, which can be purified directly from large volumes of culture medium, are used to illustrate the method.

Abstract
D-beta-Hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase of bovine heart mitochondria has been purified to apparent homogeneity. The membrane-bound enzyme is first released by phospholipase A digestion of the mitochondria. Lithium bromide, 0.4 M, is used to aid release, and dithiothreitol is required to stabilize the enzyme. The membranous material is removed by centrifugation, and the apoenzyme is recovered in the supernatant and precipitated with ammonium sulfate to 50 percent of saturation. The main purification (100-fold) is achieved by selective adsorption and elution on controlled pore glass beads. The purified enzyme has been purified approximately 250-fold from the mitochondria. The purified enzyme is homogeneous as shown by poly-acrylamide gel electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulfate or acid-urea systems; a sharp band is obtained which is equivalent to a subunit molecular weight of 31,500. The apoenzyme is devoid of lipid and is completely inactive as isolated. It can be reactivated by adding aqueous microdispersions of lecithin or phospholipids containing lecithin. The apoenzyme is stable, i.e. it has a half-life of about 450 hours at 0-2 degrees in 0.4 M lithium bromide, containing 5 mM dithiothreitol at pH 7, and is soluble at these conditions, existing mainly as a monomer and dimer in dilute solution. It has a tendency to associate into larger aggregates when the salt concentration is lowered. The enzyme does not have a distinctive amino acid composition as compared with other proteins or soluble dehydrogenases. The purified apodehydrogenase is well suited for study of specific protein-lipid interaction, as well as the molecular basis for the role of phospholipid in this lipid-requiring enzyme.

Abstract
A soluble NAD+-dependent β-hydroxybutyrate (βHB) dehydrogenase was shown to appear 3 to 4 h after the onset of sporulation of Bacillus cereus T. The enzyme was stable in Tris-chloride buffer when frozen, but required 0.05 to 0.1 M of MgCl2 or other divalent cation such as Mn2+, Ba2+, or Ca2+ for stability at 4C. In the presence of phosphate buffer or EDTA, the enzyme lost all activity within 2 min. βHB dehydrogenase was partially purified and shown to have a molecular weight of about 93 000, pH optimum of 8.0 in 0.1 M Tris-chloride buffer, Michaelis constants, Km, of 2.3 × 10−3 M for β-hydroxybutyrate and 9.5 × 10−4 M for NAD+, and was inhibited 40% by 1 × 10−3 M p-hydroxymercuribenzoate. The enzyme from B. cereus T was compared in these respects with βHB dehydrogenases isolated from several non-sporeforming bacteria.

Abstract
A relatively quick and convenient electrophoretic method, capable of separating and partially purifying soluble enzymes from cell-free extracts, is described. The method presented has the feature of analytical applicability and is ideally used with preparatory amounts of material. This zonal technique was developed with the Svensson-Porath preparatory electrophoresis column by using Sephadex G-25 as the anticonvectant. The D(−)β-hydroxybutyric and isocitric dehydrogenases of Azotobacter vinelandii strain O were used as the marker enzymes, and both were resolved as sharply defined peaks. The combined use of ammonium sulfate fractionation and electrophoresis yielded highly active and partially purified enzyme preparations of the β-hydroxybutyric and isocitric dehydrogenases.

Abstract
It has been possible to isolate and purify the D(–)β-hydroxybutyric dehydrogenase from cell-free extracts of Azotobacter vinelandii. Standardized resting cell suspensions were disrupted by sonic oscillation, and purification of the enzyme was achieved by use of protamine sulfate, ammonium sulfate, and hydroxyapatite or by direct use of a Svensson-Porath preparatory column electrophoretic unit. The D(–)β-hydroxybutyric dehydrogenase was found to be a classical, soluble, NAD+-dependent dehydrogenase and neither bound nor associated with any intracellular membranous structure. The highest specific activity achieved was 17 μmoles NAD+ reduced per minute per milligram protein at 37°. Two unusual features were noted with this dehydrogenase: (a) loss of activity occurred when the enzyme was dialyzed in the absence of metal ion; and (b) marked stability was observed when the enzyme was exposed to alkaline pH even at 40 °C for hours.
