Multienzyme electrodes can increase sensitivity from micromolar to nanomolar detection levels (53,57). In this case the substrate is converted to a detectable product by one enzyme, then that product is recycled into the initial substrate by another enzyme resulting in an amplification of the response signal. For example, using lactate oxidase and lactate dehydrogenase immobilized in poly(vinyl chloride), an amplification of 250 was obtained for the detection oflactate (61). 

Alcohol dehydrogenase-catalyzed reduction of ketones is a convenient method for the production of chiral alcohols. HLAD, the most thoroughly studied enzyme, has a broad substrate specificity and accommodates a variety of substrates (Table 11). It efficiendy reduces all simple four- to nine-membered cycHc ketones and also symmetrical and racemic cis- and trans-decalindiones (167). Asymmetric reduction of aUphatic acycHc ketones (C-4—C-10) (103,104) can be efficiendy achieved by alcohol dehydrogenase isolated from Thermoanaerohium hrockii (TBADH) (168). The enzyme is remarkably stable at temperatures up to 85°C and exhibits high tolerance toward organic solvents. Alcohol dehydrogenases from horse Hver and T. hrockii...

The leading substrate (A) is nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD ), and NAD and NADH (product Q) compete for a common site on E. A specific example is offered by alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) ... 

FIGURE 16.10 Formation of a covalent intermediate in the glyceraldehyde-3-phos-phate dehydrogenase reaction. Nucleophilic attack by a cysteine —SH group forms a covalent acylcysteine intermediate. Following hydride transfer to NAD, nucleophilic attack by phosphate yields the product, 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate. 

The pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC) is a noncovalent assembly of three different enzymes operating in concert to catalyze successive steps in the conversion of pyruvate to acetyl-CoA. The active sites of ail three enzymes are not far removed from one another, and the product of the first enzyme is passed directly to the second enzyme and so on, without diffusion of substrates and products through the solution. The overall reaction (see A Deeper Look Reaction Mechanism of the Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Complex ) involves a total of five coenzymes thiamine pyrophosphate, coenzyme A, lipoic acid, NAD+, and FAD. 

It may seem surprising that isocitrate dehydrogenase is strongly regulated, because it is not an apparent branch point within the TCA cycle. However, the citrate/isocitrate ratio controls the rate of production of cytosolic acetyl-CoA, because acetyl-CoA in the cytosol is derived from citrate exported from the mitochondrion. (Breakdown of cytosolic citrate produces oxaloacetate and acetyl-CoA, which can be used in a variety of biosynthetic processes.) Thus, isocitrate dehydrogenase activity in the mitochondrion favors catabolic TCA cycle activity over anabolic utilization of acetyl-CoA in the cytosol. 

Compartmentation of these reactions to prevent photorespiration involves the interaction of two cell types, mescrphyll cells and bundle sheath cells. The meso-phyll cells take up COg at the leaf surface, where Og is abundant, and use it to carboxylate phosphoenolpyruvate to yield OAA in a reaction catalyzed by PEP carboxylase (Figure 22.30). This four-carbon dicarboxylic acid is then either reduced to malate by an NADPH-specific malate dehydrogenase or transaminated to give aspartate in the mesophyll cells. The 4-C COg carrier (malate or aspartate) then is transported to the bundle sheath cells, where it is decarboxylated to yield COg and a 3-C product. The COg is then fixed into organic carbon by the Calvin cycle localized within the bundle sheath cells, and the 3-C product is returned to the mesophyll cells, where it is reconverted to PEP in preparation to accept another COg (Figure 22.30). Plants that use the C-4 pathway are termed C4 plants, in contrast to those plants with the conventional pathway of COg uptake (C3 plants).
