Citrate synthase from Escherichia coli en-hances the fluorescence of its allosteric inhibitor, NADH, and shifts the peak of emission of the coenzyme from 457 to 428 nm. These effects have been used to measure the bind-ing of NADH to this enzyme under various conditions. The dissociation constant for the NADH-citrate synthase com-plex is about 0.28 µ at pH 6.2, but increases toward alkaline pH as if binding depends on protonation of a group with a pAla of about 7.05. Over the pH range 6.2-8.7, the number of binding sites decreases from about 0.65 to about 0.25 per citrate synthase subunit. The midpoint of this tran-sition is at about pH 7.7, and it may be one reflection of the partial depolymerization of the enzyme which is known to occur in this pH range. A gel filtration method has been used to verify that the fluorescence enhancement technique accurately reveals all of the NADH molecules bound to the enzyme in the concentration range of interest. NAD+ and NADP+ were weak competitiveinhibitors of NADH bind-ing at pH 7.8 (K-, values greater than 1 mM), but stronger inhibition was shown by 5'-AMP and 3GAMP, with K, values of 83±5 and 65±4 µ, respectively. Acetyl-CoA, one of the substrates, and KC1, an activator, also inhibit the binding in a weakly cooperative manner. All of these effects
