Pyrophosphate ions activate the steady-state rate of oxidation of propionaldehyde by sheep liver cytosolic aldehyde dehydrogenase at alkaline pH values. The steps in the mechanism governing the release of NADH from terminal enzyme. NADH complexes have been shown to be rate-limiting at pH 7.6 [MacGibbon, Buckley & Blackwell (1977) Biochem J. 165, 455-462]. These steps are shown to be also rate-limiting at more alkaline pH values, and it is through an acceleration of these steps that pyrophosphate ions exert their activation effect.

The pre-steady-state kinetics of phosphate formation from 5-enolpyruvylshikimate 3-phosphate catalysed by Escherichia coli chorismate synthase (EC 4.6.1.4) were studied by a rapid-acid-quench technique at 25 degrees C at pH 7.5. No pre-steady-state ‘burst’ or ‘lag’ phase was observed, showing that phosphate is released concomitant with the rate-limiting step of the enzyme. The implications of this result for the mechanism of action of chorismate synthase are discussed.

Equations are developed for the pre-steady state kinetics of the proteolytic enzyme-catalyzed hydrolysis of a substrate A in the presence of a monitoring substrate (or covalent inhibitor) S of known properties. A two-intermediate acyl–enzyme mechanism is assumed in which the first intermediate is in instantaneous equilibrium with enzyme and substrate. The appearance of the first product of substrate S is characterized by two relaxation rate constants. From these constants it is possible to determine the dissociation constant and the acylation and deacylation rate constants of substrate A. Criteria are also developed for using the steady state rate parameters of A to establish conditions for which the slower relaxation process is equivalent to the deacylation rate constant of A. The technique of premixing enzyme with substrate A has certain advantages in this approach.

The steady-state kinetics of purified cytoplasmic aldehyde dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.3) from human erythrocytes have been studied at 37 degrees C. Previous studies of the enzyme from several mammalian sources, which used a lower assay temperature, have been difficult to interpret because of the substrate activation by acetaldehyde which led to complex kinetic behaviour. At 37 degrees C the initial-rate data do not depart significantly from Michaelis-Menten kinetics. Studies of the variation of initial rates as a function of the concentrations of both substrates and studies of the inhibition by NADH were consistent with a sequential mechanism being followed. High-substrate inhibition by acetaldehyde was competitive with respect to NAD+. The enzyme was not inhibited by the product acetate and thus the results of these studies, although consistent with an ordered mechanism in which NAD+ was the first substrate to bind, were inconclusive. That such a mechanism was followed was confirmed by determination of the initial-rate behaviour in the presence of acetaldehyde and glycolaldehyde as alternative substrates. When the reciprocal of the initial rate of NADH formation was plotted against the acetaldehyde concentration at a series of fixed ratios between that substrate and glycolaldehyde, a linear ‘mixed inhibition’ pattern was obtained, confirming the mechanism to be ordered with NAD+ being the leading substrate and with kinetically significant ternary complex-formation.

Zero-trans kinetics of Na+-sugar cotransport were investigated. Sugar influx was measured at various sodium and sugar concentrations in K+-loaded cells treated with rotenone and valinomycin. Sugar influx follows Michaelis-Menten kinetics as a function of sugar concentration but not as a function of Na+ concentration. Nine models with 1:1 or 2:1 sodium:sugar stoichiometry were considered. The flux equations for these models were solved assuming steady-state distribution of carrier forms and that translocation across the membrane is rate limiting. Classical enzyme kinetic methods and a least-squares fit of flux equations to the experimental data were used to assess the fit of the different models. Four models can be discarded on this basis. Of the remaining models, we discard two on the basis of the trans sodium dependence and the coupling stoichiometry [G. A. Kimmich and J. Randles, Am. J. Physiol. 247 (Cell Physiol. 16): C74-C82, 1984]. The remaining models are terter ordered mechanisms with sodium debinding first at the trans side. If transfer across the membrane is rate limiting, the binding order can be determined to be sodium:sugar:sodium.
