Trehalase of Dictyostelium discoideum: inhibition by amino-containing analogs of trehalose and affinity purification.
The inhibitory effects of three nitrogen containing analogs of trehalose, validamycin A, MDL 25,637 and castanospermine, on Dictyostelium discoideum trehalase were examined. Prior to this study, the effects of glycohydrolase inhibitors on D discoideum trehalase have not been reported. Validamycin A, MDL 25,637 and castanospermine were found to be potent, reversible, competitive inhibitors of D discoideum vegetative trehalase in vitro with IC50 values of 1 x 10(-9) M, 2 x 10(-8) M and 1.25 x 10(-4) M, respectively. Validamycin A and MDL 25,637 also exhibited time-dependent inhibition of D discoideum trehalase, whereby the potencies of these two inhibitors were observed to increase when pre-incubated with the enzyme for up to 60 min. The competitive natures of validamycin A and MDL 25,637 were also altered during pre-incubation with enzyme such that the compounds behaved as mixed inhibitors under these conditions. Taken together, these results suggest that the inhibitory action of validamycin A and MDL 25,637 on trehalase is of a slow-binding nature. A trehalase-specific affinity resin was synthesized by covalently coupling validamycin A to Sepharose 6B. This resin was used to purify D discoideum trehalase to near homogeneity in a two-step procedure. SDS-PAGE of affinity-purified trehalase, and silver staining or in situ staining for trehalase activity, revealed a major protein species of 42 kDa, exhibiting trehalase activity, and two minor protein species of approximately 45 and 49 kDa. Since validamycin A demonstrates strict binding specificity for trehalase, validamycin A-Sepharose has potential and novel applications in rapid, large scale, purification of trehalases from a variety of species origins.

Inhibitors of pig kidney trehalase.
Trehazolin, a new trehalase inhibitor isolated from the culture broth of Micromonospora, was reported to be a highly specific inhibitor for porcine and silk worm trehalases with IC50 values of 5.5 x 10(-9) and 3.7 x 10(-9) M, respectively (O. Ando, H. Satake, K. Itoi, A. Sato, M. Nakajima, S. Takashi, H. Haruyama, Y. Ohkuma, T. Kinoshita, and R. Enokita (1991) J. Antibiot. 44, 1165-1168). We also found that trehazolin is a very powerful and quite specific inhibitor against purified pig kidney trehalase, giving an IC50 value of 1.9 x 10(-8) M. Lineweaver-Burk plots showed that this compound was a competitive inhibitor of the trehalase. However, even at concentrations of 200 micrograms/ml, trehazolin did not inhibit the rat intestinal maltase or sucrase, yeast alpha-glucosidase or almond beta-glucosidase. Validoxylamine A and validamycin A, two other trehalase inhibitors, showed potent competitive inhibition against purified pig kidney trehalase, with IC50 values of 2.4 x 10(-9) and 2.5 x 10(-4) M, respectively. On the other hand, validoxylamine A was almost inactive against rat intestinal sucrase and maltase, with some inhibition being observed at millimolar concentration. A number of other glucosidase inhibitors, such as MDL 25637, castanospermine, and deoxynojirimycin were also tested against the purified trehalase and showed reasonable inhibitory activity.

Selective inhibition of glycoprotein-processing enzymes. Differential inhibition of glucosidases I and II in cell culture.
In this study, we compared the effects of 2,6-dideoxy-2,6-imino-7-O-(beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-D-glycero-L-gulohep titol (MDL) to those of the glucosidase I inhibitor, castanospermine, on the purified processing enzymes glucosidases I and II. WE also compared the effects of these two inhibitors on glycoprotein processing in cell culture using influenza virus-infected Madin-Darby canine kidney cells as a model system. With the purified processing enzymes, castanospermine was a better inhibitor of glucosidase I than of glucosidase II, whereas MDL is more effective against glucosidase II than glucosidase I. In cell culture at the appropriate dose, MDL also preferentially affected glucosidase II. Thus, at 250 micrograms/ml MDL, the major [3H]glucose-labeled (or [3H]mannose-labeled) glycopeptide from the viral hemagglutinin was susceptible to endoglucosaminidase H, and the oligosaccharide liberated by this treatment was characterized as a Glc2Man7-9GlcNAc on the basis of size, resistance to digestion by glucosidase I (but sensitivity to glucosidase II), methylation analysis, and Smith degradation studies. These data indicate that at appropriate concentrations of MDL (250 micrograms/ml), one can selectively inhibit glucosidase II in Madin-Darby canine kidney cells. However, at higher concentrations of inhibitor (500 micrograms/ml), both enzymes are apparently affected. Since MDL did not greatly inhibit the synthesis of lipid-linked saccharides or the synthesis of protein or RNA, it should be a useful tool for studies on the biosynthesis and role of N-linked oligosaccharides in glycoprotein function.
