A new enzyme, NAD+-dependent 4-N-trimethylamino-1-butanol dehydrogenase from Pseudomonas sp. 13CM, was purified 526-fold to apparent homogeneity in 5 chromatographic steps. The enzyme had a molecular mass of 45 kDa and appeared to be a monomer enzyme. The isoeletric point was found to be 4.8. The optimum temperature was 50 °C, and the optimum pHs for the oxidation and reduction reactions were 9.5 and 6.0 respectively. The purified enzyme was further characterized with respect to substrate specificity, kinetic parameters, and amino acid terminal sequence. The Km values for trimethylamino-1-butanol and NAD+ were 0.54 mM and 0.22 mM respectively. In the reduction reaction, the apparent Km values for trimethylaminobutylaldehyde and NADH were 0.67 mM and 0.04 mM, respectively. The enzyme was inhibited by SH reagents, chelating reagents, and heavy metal ions. The N-terminal 12 amino acid residues were sequenced.
