Application
L-Alanine dehydrogenase converts L-alanine to pyruvate and ammonium. L-Alanine dehydrogenase from Bacillus subtilis may be used to study enzyme inactivation and protection .
Biochem/physiol Actions
L-Alanine dehydrogenase is an A-stereospecific dehydrogenase that catalyzes the reversible deamination of L-alanine to pyruvate and ammonium. It is important for the generation of pyruvate during sporulation. L-Alanine dehydrogenase from Bacillus subtilis has a predominately ordered kinetic mechanism in which NAD binds before L-alanine. Subsequently, ammonia, pyruvate, and NADH are released in that specific order. Optimal pH for the amination reaction is 8.8-9.0, whereas it is 10-10.5 for the deamination reaction. The enzyme is inactivated by divalent metal ions and p-chloromercuribenzoate, mercuric ion being most effective. The inactivation may be reversed by L- or D-cysteine.
Physical form
Solution in 50% glycerol containing 10 mM potassium phosphate buffer, pH 7.7
Other Notes
One unit will convert 1.0 μmole of L-alanine to pyruvate and NH3 per min at pH 10.0 at 25 °C.

L-Alanine dehydrogenase from Bacillus subtilis was inactivated with two different lysine-directed chemical reagents, i.e. 2,4, 6-trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid and N-succinimidyl 3-(2-pyridyldithio)propionate. In both cases, the inactivation followed pseudo first-order kinetics, with a 1:1 stoichiometric ratio between the reagent and the enzyme
