Imidase, which preferably hydrolyzed cyclic imides to monoamidated dicarboxylates, was purified to homogeneity from a cell-free extract of Blastobacter sp. A17p-4. Cyclic imides are known to be hydrolyzed by mammalian dihydropyrimidinases. However, imidase was quite different from known dihydropyrimidinases in structure and substrate specificity. The enzyme has a relative molecular mass of 105 000 and consists of three identical subunits. The purified enzyme showed higher activity and affinity toward cyclic imides, such as succinimide (Km = 0.94 mM; Vmax = 910 micromol x min(-1) x mg(-1)), glutarimide (Km = 4.5 mM; Vmax = 1000 micromol min (-1) x mg (-1) and maleimide (Km = 0.34 mM; Vmax = 5800 micromol x min(-1)x mg(-1)), than toward cyclic ureides, which are the substrates of dihydropyrimidinases, such as dihydrouracil and hydantoin. Sulfur-containing cyclic imides, such as 2,4-thiazolidinedione and rhodanine, were also hydrolyzed. The enzyme catalyzed the reverse reaction, cyclization, but with much lower activity and affinity. The enzyme was non-competitively inhibited by succinate, which was found to be a key compound in cyclic-imide transformation in relation with the tricarboxylic acid cycle in this bacterium, suggesting that the role of imidase is to catalyze the initial step of cyclic-imide degradation. << Less
