Abstract
In pea seedlings transferred to a medium containing 3% NaCl, NADP-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase (NADP-IDH) activity in leaves increased more than twofold during the first hour, decreased, and increased again (approximately 1.5 times) by the 14th hour of exposure. Some catalytic and regulatory properties of NADP-IDH were studied using enzyme preparations purified from normal plants and plants exposed to salt stress. The results showed that K m for NADP-IDH in reactions with isocitrate and NADP decreased under stress by factors of 2 and 3, respectively. Specific features of enzyme activity regulation by citrate and trans-aconitate under these conditions were revealed. The inhibitory effects of γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and 2-oxoglutarate on NADP-IDH from plants exposed to salt stress was stronger than that on the enzyme from normal plants. Glutamine and glutamate slightly activated the enzyme in both cases.
