| Description | Journal: Journal of Biological Inorganic Chemistry Aldehyde dehydrogenase from Pseudomonas testosteroni was purified to homogeneity. The enzyme has a pH optimum of 8.2, uses a wide range of aldehydes as substrates and cationic dyes (Wurster's blue, phenazine methosulphate and thionine), but not anionic dyes (ferricyanide and 2.6-dichloroindophenol), NAD(P)+ or O2, as electron acceptors. Haem c and pyrroloquinoline quinone appeared to be absent but the common cofactors of molybdenum hydroxylases were present. Xanthine was not a substrate and allopurinol was not an inhibitor. Alcohols were inhibitors only when turnover of the enzyme occurred in aldehyde conversion. The enzyme has a relative molecular mass of 186,000, consists of two subunits of equal size (Mr 92,000), and 1 enzyme molecule contains 1 FAD, 1 molybdopterin cofactor, 4 Fe and 4 S. It is a novel type of NAD(P)+-independent aldehyde dehydrogenase since its catalytic and physicochemical properties are quite different from those reported for already known aldehyde-converting enzymes like haemoprotein aldehyde dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.99.3), quino-protein alcohol dehydrogenases (EC 1.1.99.8) and molybdenum hydroxylases. |
