In this study, we report cDNA sequences of the cytosolic NADP-dependent
isocitrate dehydrogenase for humans, mice, and two species of voles
(Microtus mexicanus and Microtus ochrogaster). Inferred amino acid
sequences from these taxa display a high level of amino acid sequence
conservation, comparable to that of myosin beta heavy chain, and share
known structural features. A Caenorhabditis elegans enzyme that was
previously identified as a protein similar to isocitrate dehydrogenase is
most likely the NADP-dependent cytosolic isocitrate dehydrogenase enzyme
equivalent, based on amino acid similarity to mammalian enzymes and
phylogenetic analysis. We also suggest that NADP-dependent isocitrate
dehydrogenases characterized from alfalfa, soybean, and eucalyptus are most
likely cytosolic enzymes. The phylogenetic tree of various isocitrate
dehydrogenases from eukaryotic sources revealed that independent gene
duplications may have given rise to the cytosolic and mitochondrial forms
of NADP-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase in animals and fungi. There
appears to be no statistical support for a hypothesis that the
mitochondrial and cytosolic forms of the enzyme are orthologous in these
groups. A possible scenario of the evolution of NADP-dependent isocitrate
dehydrogenases is proposed.
