Abstract/OtherAbstract:
A polyol dehydrogenase of broad specificity was purified 178-fold from extracts of the filamentous fungus Cephalosporium chrysogenum. The enzyme was found to act as an oxido-reductase in two substrate-coenzyme systems: D-sorbitol (or xylitol)-nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide (NAD) and D-mannitol-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP). The dehydrogenase was composed of five isozymes, which, as a mixture, exhibited these properties: Km to D-sorbitol and D-mannitol, 7.15 to 10(-2) M; PH optimum, 9 to 10; molecular weight, 300,000 subunit weight, 29,000; PI, 5.8 to 7.5. The NADP-linked activity was labile to treatment with heat or ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid. Mixed substrate assays support the hypothesis that both NAD-, and NADP-linked activities are associated with isozymes of a single dehydrogenase.
