Abstract

The reaction of glutamate dehydrogenase ( l-glutamate: NAD + oxidoreductase (deaminating) EC 1.4.1.2) from lupin nodules has been investigated in the direction of deamination by means of steady state velocity studies in the absence of products and inhibition studies with products and substrate analogs. The results are qualitatively and quantitatively consistent with a fully ordered reaction mechanism in which NAD + binds to the enzyme first followed by l-glutamate. The order of product release is proposed to be NH 4 + followed by 2-oxoglutarate and then NADH. In addition, product inhibition data indicate the formation of an enzyme-NAD-oxoglutarate dead-end complex.
