Earlier studies indicated that the gene of an ammonium-inducible glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) was inducible throughout the cell cycle and was expressible shortly after replication early in the S-phase in synchronous Chlorella cells growing at a rate of 13% per h in the absence of inducer. In the present study, synchronous cells cultured at the same growth rate in the continuous presence of inducer accumulated this enzyme in a linear manner, with a positive rate change observed late instead of early in the S-phase. At a growth rate of 26% per h, the positive rate change appeared to be displaced to 1.5 h before the S-phase in the next cell cycle. With 2'-deoxyadenosine, an in vivo inhibitor of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) synthesis, the magnitude of the positive rate change was shown to be proportional to the relative increase in DNA in the previous cell cycle. Collectively, these data support the idea that expression of newly replicated genes of this enzyme can be delayed into the subsequent cell cycle in cells in the continuous presence of inducer. Studies with cycloheximide indicated that the inducible GDH and another GDH isozyme were stable in fully induced cells in the absence of protein synthesis. However, after ammonium was removed from the culture medium, the activity of the inducible GDH decreased rapidly in vivo, with a half-time of 5 to 10 min at 38.5 degrees C, whereas the rate of accumulation of the other GDH isozyme did not change. Addition of cycloheximide, at the time of inducer removal, prevented this loss in activity of the inducible GDH. The inability to rescue the activity of the inducible GDH, by readdition of ammonium during the deinduction period, indicates that this enzyme probably underwent irreversible inactivation and/or proteolytic degradation.
