Biochemical and genetic characterization of the membrane-associated malate dehydrogenase (acceptor) from Corynebacterium glutamicum.
Molenaar D., van der Rest M.E., Petrovic S.
In addition to a cytoplasmic, NAD-dependent malate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.37), Corynebacterium glutamicum possesses a highly active membrane-associated malate dehydrogenase (acceptor) (EC 1.1.99.16). This enzyme also takes part in the citric acid cycle. It oxidizes L-malate to oxaloacetate and do ... >> More
In addition to a cytoplasmic, NAD-dependent malate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.37), Corynebacterium glutamicum possesses a highly active membrane-associated malate dehydrogenase (acceptor) (EC 1.1.99.16). This enzyme also takes part in the citric acid cycle. It oxidizes L-malate to oxaloacetate and donates electrons to ubiquinone-1 and other artificial acceptors or, via the electron transfer chain, to oxygen. NAD is not an acceptor and the natural direct acceptor for the enzyme is most likely a quinone. The enzyme is therefore called malate:quinone oxidoreductase, abbreviated to Mqo. Mqo is a peripheral membrane protein and can be released from the membrane by addition of chelators. The solubilized form was partially purified and characterized biochemically. FAD is probably a tightly but non-covalently bound prosthetic group, and the enzyme is activated by lipids. A C. glutamicum mutant completely lacking Mqo activity was isolated. It grows poorly on several substrates tested. The mutant possesses normal levels of cytoplasmic NAD-dependent malate dehydrogenase. A plasmid containing the gene from C. glutamicum coding for Mqo was isolated by complementation of the Mqo-negative phenotype. It leads to overexpression of Mqo activity in the mutant. The nucleotide sequence of the mqo gene was determined and is the first sequence known for this enzyme. The derived protein sequence is similar to hypothetical proteins from Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Mycobacterium tuberculosis. << Less

FAD-dependent malate dehydrogenase, a phospholipid-requiring enzyme from Mycobacterium sp. strain Takeo. Purification and some properties.
Imai T.
FAD-dependent malate dehydrogenase, a phospholipid-requiring enzyme, was homogeneously purified from the particulate fraction of Mycobacterium sp. strain Takeo. The isolated enzyme contains no FAD and few phospholipid, and has a specific activity of 300-360 units/mg of protein. In the assay system ... >> More
FAD-dependent malate dehydrogenase, a phospholipid-requiring enzyme, was homogeneously purified from the particulate fraction of Mycobacterium sp. strain Takeo. The isolated enzyme contains no FAD and few phospholipid, and has a specific activity of 300-360 units/mg of protein. In the assay system without addition of phospholipid (cardiolipin), the enzyme activity was only about 3% of maximum activity. The molecular weight was estimated to be 51 000-55 000 by four methods. Titration by p-chloromercuribenzoate revealed the presence of one cysteine residue/mol of enzyme. The isoelectric point was found to be pH 6.9 by isoelectric focusing. From circular dichroism spectral data, the enzyme protein was found to contain alpha-helix structure of 24%. << Less

Another unusual type of citric acid cycle enzyme in Helicobacter pylori: the malate:quinone oxidoreductase.
Kather B., Stingl K., van der Rest M.E., Altendorf K., Molenaar D.
The only enzyme of the citric acid cycle for which no open reading frame (ORF) was found in the Helicobacter pylori genome is the NAD-dependent malate dehydrogenase.

The only enzyme of the citric acid cycle for which no open reading frame (ORF) was found in the Helicobacter pylori genome is the NAD-dependent malate dehydrogenase. Here, it is shown that in this organism the oxidation of malate to oxaloacetate is catalyzed by a malate:quinone oxidoreductase (MQO). This flavin adenine dinucleotide-dependent membrane-associated enzyme donates electrons to quinones of the electron transfer chain. Similar to succinate dehydrogenase, it is part of both the electron transfer chain and the citric acid cycle. MQO activity was demonstrated in isolated membranes of H. pylori. The enzyme is encoded by the ORF HP0086, which is shown by the fact that expression of the HP0086 sequence from a plasmid induces high MQO activity in mqo deletion mutants of Escherichia coli or Corynebacterium glutamicum. Furthermore, this plasmid was able to complement the phenotype of the C. glutamicum mqo deletion mutant. Interestingly, the protein predicted to be encoded by this ORF is only distantly related to known or postulated MQO sequences from other bacteria. The presence of an MQO shown here and the previously demonstrated presence of a 2-ketoglutarate:ferredoxin oxidoreductase and a succinyl-coenzyme A (CoA):acetoacetyl-CoA transferase indicate that H. pylori possesses a complete citric acid cycle, but one which deviates from the standard textbook example in three steps. << Less

Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv, the slow-growing human pathogenic strain of tubercle bacilli and Mycobacterium smegmatis and Mycobacterium phlei, the fast-growing saprophytes, have shown variations regarding the type of dehydrogenase that initiates malate oxidation in the respiratory chain. M. tuberculosis H37Rv is characterized by having a malate oxidase system (designated MALNAD pathway) in which malate oxidation is mediated by the NAD+-dependent malate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.37) but not by FAD-dependent malate-vitamin K reductase. M. smegmatis possesses a different malate oxidase system (designated MALFAD pathway) in which malate oxidation is exclusively carried out by the FAD-dependent malate-vitamin K reductase because NAD+-dependent malate dehydrogenase is absent in this organism. M. phlei has a mixed system of malate oxidase (designated MALNAD+FAD pathways) in which both the NAD+-and FAD-dependent dehydrogenases take part. In all the three systems, the rest of the electron transport chain is common. << Less
