| Popis: | Kinetics of inactivation of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH, EC 1.1.1.49) in 0.1 M phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) within temperature range from 36 to 50 degrees C was studied comparatively under conditions of exposure of enzyme solution to low-frequency (LF, 27 kHz, 60 W/cm2) or high-frequency (HF, 880 kHz, 1.0 W/cm2) ultrasound (USD). Inactivation of G6PDH was characterized by effective first-order rate constants: (k(in)) total (summarized) inactivation; (k(in)*) thermal inactivation; and (k(in)(usd)) ultrasonic inactivation. Dilution of enzyme solution from 20 to 3 nM was accompanied by a significant increase in the values of the three rate constants. The following inequality was valid in all cases: k(in) > k(in)*. The rate constants increased upon increasing the temperature. The Arrhenius plots of the temperature dependencies of k(in) and k(in) (usd) have a salient point at 44 degrees C. The activation energy (Eact) of the total inactivation of G6PDH was higher than Eact for the process of ultrasonic inactivation of this enzyme. The two values were found to depend on USD frequency: Eact in case of inactivation with low-frequency ultrasound (LF-USD) was higher than in case of inactivation with high-frequency ultrasound (HF-USD). The rate of the ultrasonic induced inactivation of this enzyme substantially decreased in the presence of low concentrations of traps of radicals HO. (dimethylformamide, ethanol, and mannitol). This fact supports the conclusion that free radicals are involved in the mechanism of the G6PDH inactivation in solutions exposed to LF-USD and HF-USD. Ethanol was an effective protector of G6PDH inactivation in enzyme solutions exposed to USD. |
