Abstract:
:The catalytic properties of a new type of dihydropteridine reductase, NADPH-specific dihydropteridine reductase [EC 1.6.99.10], from bovine liver, were studied and compared with those of the previously characterized enzyme, NADH-specific dihydropteridine reductase [EC 1.6.99.7]. With quinonoid-dihydro-6-methylpterin, approximate Km values of NADPH-specific dihydropteridine reductase for NADPH and NADH were estimated to be 1.4 micron and 2,900 microns, respectively. The Vmax values were 1.34 mumol/min/mg with NADPH and 1.02 mumol/min/mg with NADPH. With NADPH, the Km values of the enzyme for the quinonoid-dihydro forms of 6-methylpterin and biopterin were 1.4 micron and 6.8 microns, respectively. The enzyme was inhibited by its reaction product, NADP+, in a competitive manner, and the inhibition constant was determined to be 3.2 microns. The enzyme was severely inhibited by L-thyroxine and by 2,6-dichlorophenolindophenol.
