The activation of aconitase by ferrous ions and reducing agents

Abstract: In all instances the reaction cis-aconitate-* citrate was studied. Citric acid was estimated by the method of Pucher, Sherman & Vickery (1936) as modified by Buffa & Peters (1949).

“…The in.wnce of iron on aconitase activity Some workers have reported that ferrous ions activate purified preparations of aconitase from mammalian tissues (Dickman & Cloutier, 1950Morrison, 1954). By using Morrison's methods in the present work it was found that, when precipitated with ammonium sulphate and dialysed, the partially purified aconitase of Aspergillus niger could be activated 4-fold by adding iron and cysteine.…”

“…Aconitase activity was measured as described previously (30). Briefly, 100 M trisodium citrate, 0.7 units of isocitrate dehydrogenase, and 270 M NADP ϩ were added to cleared cell lysates in assay buffer (20 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.4).…”

“…34 Briefly, 100 L extracts containing equal amounts of protein was added to 800 L of a solution containing 330 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.4, 1.5 mM manganese sulfate, 0.6 mM NADP, and 1 U/mL isocitrate dehydrogenase. The reaction was started by adding 100 L of 20 mM sodium citrate, and production of NADPH was monitored by measuring the increase in absorbance at 340 nm.…”
