Using quantitative methods, citrate synthase (CS), fumarase, beta-hydroxyacyl-coenzyme A (CoA) dehydrogenase (beta OAC), 3-keto-acid CoA transferase (KCT), malic dehydrogenase (MDH), and malic enzyme were measured in seven defined parts of the nephron and in thin limb and papilla areas dissected from freeze-dried microtome sections of rat kidney. The results not only show a wide range of activity along the nephron for each of the enzymes, but that the proportions between the enzymes vary markedly among the different parts of the nephron. This suggests the existence of major regional differences in the capacity to oxidize specific metabolites. The ratio between two citrate cycle enzymes, fumarase and CS, was 4- or 5-fold higher in proximal segments than in the glomerulus or thin limb areas. The ratio between beta OAC (an enzyme of fatty acid oxidation) and CS was 3- to 5-fold higher in the middle proximal segments than in glomeruli or thin limb and papilla areas. The key enzyme for ketone body metabolism, KCT, was essentially confined to the thick tubule segments. Malic enzyme, in contrast to the other five enzymes, was highest in the proximal straight segments. New methods, sufficiently sensitive for this histochemical study, are described for malic enzyme and 3-keto-acid CoA transferase.
