Institute of Molecular Biology, University of Oregon, Eugene, Oregon 97403 Received April 16, 1984 abstract: The pathway for the transfer of NADH from one dehydrogenase (EJ to another dehydrogenase (E2) has been investigated by studying the E2-catalyzed reduction of S2 by NADH. The experimental conditions are that the concentration of Et exceeds that of NADH, which in turn is very much greater than E2; hence, the concentration of free (aqueous) NADH is exceedingly low. The rate of reduction of S2 will hence be very slow if unliganded aqueous NADH is required for the E2-catalyzed reaction. Our results with eight dehydrogenases are entirely consistent with the direct transfer of NADH between E (and E2 whenever the two enzymes transfer hydrogen via opposite faces (A and B) of the nicotinamide ring. Whenever the two enzymes are both A or both B, NADH transfer occurs only via the aqueous solvent. Some mechanistic inferences and their possible physiological significance are discussed.
