Pyridine nucleotide transhydrogenases of bacterial cytosolic membranes and mitochondrial inner membranes are proton pumps in which hydride transfer between NADP(+) and NAD(+) is coupled to proton translocation across cytosolic or mitochondrial membranes. The pyridine nucleotide transhydrogenase of Escherichia coli is

A fluorogenic derivatization method was developed to distinguish the protein N-terminal acetylation status. The unacetylated protein selectively reacted with 4-chloro-7-nitrobenzofurazan (NBD-Cl) at neutral pH to provide high fluorescence. In contrast, the protein with N-terminal acetylation was essentially nonfluorescent under the
