Deinococcus radioduransis highly resistant to ionizing radiation and UV radiation, and oxidative stress caused by such radiations. NADP(H) seems to be important for this resistance (Slade and Radman, Microbiol Mol Biol Rev 75:133–191; Slade, Radman, Microbiol Mol Biol Rev 75:133–191, 2011), but the mechanism underlying the generation of NADP(H) or NAD(H) inD. radioduranshas not fully been addressed. Intracellular concentrations of NAD+, NADH, NADP+, and NADPH inD. radioduransare also not determined yet. We found that cell extracts ofD. radioduranscatalyzed reduction of NAD(P)+in vitro, indicating thatD. radioduranscells contain both enzymes and a high concentration of substrates for this activity. The enzyme and the substrate were attributed to glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and glucose-6-phosphate of which intracellular concentration was extremely high. Unexpectedly, the intracellular concentration of NAD(H) was also much greater than that of NADP(H), suggesting some significant roles of NADH. These unusual features of this bacterium would shed light on a new aspect of physiology of this bacterium.
