Exonuclease A was isolated from bacteriophage T4-infected cells of E. coli. The molecular mass of the enzyme is approximately 42,000 Da, pH optimum is 7-8.5, pI is 4.05. The enzyme activity depends on Mg2+, the optimal concentration of Mg2+ being 1-5 mM. The enzyme splits one- and two-helical DNA in the direction of 3'----5' and is a deoxyribonuclease splitting 5'-deoxynucleotides. The enzyme shows a practically equal affinity for one and two-helical DNA. The Km value for one- and two-helical DNA is 10 +/- 1 and 11 +/- 1 pmole of chain DNA, respectively. The Vmax value for one- and two-helical DNA is 61 +/- 5 and 45 +/- 5 pmole of nucleotides per min. Exonuclease A may be used for preparing substrates for DNA-polymerase T4 and Klenow fragment, i.e., during labeling of DNA at 3'-ends. 相似文献

We have previously reported that many tumor cell lines express a 5'-nucleotide phosphodiesterase (phosphodiesterase I, EC 3.1.4.1) with properties clearly distinguishable from enzymes of normal tissues (Biochim. Biophys. Acta (1988) 966, 99-106). Such an enzyme with 5'-nucleotide phosphodiesterase activity was purified from Ehrlich ascites carcinoma by measuring the cleavage of thymidine 5'-monophosphate p-nitrophenyl ester (TMP-NP). The enzyme is a soluble protein, has a pH optimum of 7.5, and the molecular mass estimated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis is 67 kDa. The enzyme does not hydrolyze other chromogenic substrates for phosphodiesterases, nor pyrophosphate bond of various nucleotides which are cleaved by 5'-nucleotide phosphodiesterases of normal tissues. But, it hydrolyzes dinucleotides to form 5'-phosphates, and is more active on 2',5'- than on 3',5'-phosphodiester bonds. These results indicate that the TMP-NP splitting enzyme in Ehrlich ascites carcinoma cells is a 2',5'-phosphodiesterase. 相似文献

[35S]Adenosine-5'-phosphosulfate (APS) binding to Penicillium chrysogenum APS kinase was measured by centrifugal ultrafiltration. APS did not bind to the free enzyme with a measurable affinity even at low ionic strength where substrate inhibition by APS is quite marked. However, APS bound with an apparent Kd of 0.54 microM in the presence of 5 mM MgADP. In the presence of 0.1 M (NH4)2SO4, Kd,app was increased to 2.1 +/- 0.7 microM. Bound [35S]APS was displaced by low concentrations of 3'-phosphoadenosine-5'-phosphosulfate (PAPS), or iso-(2') PAPS, or (less efficiently) by adenosine-3,5'-diphosphate (PAP) or adenosine-5'-monosulfate (AMS). The results support our conclusion that substrate inhibition of the fungal enzyme by APS results from the formation of a dead end E. MgADP.APS complex. That is, APS binds to the subsite vacated by PAPS in the compulsory (or predominately) ordered product release sequence (PAPS before MgADP). Radioligand displacement was used to verify the Kd for APS dissociation from E.MgADP.APS and to determine the Kd values for the dissociation of iso-PAPS (13 +/- 5 microM), PAP (4.8 mM), or AMS (5.2 mM) from their respective ternary enzyme.MgADP.ligand complexes. Incubation of the fungal enzyme with [gamma-32P]MgATP did not yield a phosphoenzyme that survives gel filtration or gel electrophoresis. 相似文献

Properties of a novel oligonucleotide-releasing bidirectional DNA exonuclease from mouse myeloma 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Highly purified, but not homogeneous, samples of helix-destabilizing protein 1 from mouse myeloma contain a novel oligonucleotide-releasing DNA exonuclease. This enzyme was separated from helix-destabilizing protein 1 and obtained in highly purified form. A polypeptide of Mr 41 000 is a main constituent of the purified enzyme, and this polypeptide comigrated with the exonuclease activity during the final step of the purification, Sephacryl S-200 gel filtration where the enzyme had a native Mr of 40 000. Overall purification of enzyme activity was greater than 20 000-fold. This exonuclease releases 5'-oligonucleotides in a limited processive manner in both the 5'----3' and 3'----5' directions. Activity of the enzyme is resistant to 1 mM N-ethylmaleimide, requires a divalent cation, has an alkaline pH optimum, and degrades single-stranded DNA much faster than double-stranded DNA or RNA. The predominant oligonucleotide product with uniformly labeled substrates is (pdN)2. With 3' end labeled substrates, greater than 95% of the labeled products are (pdN)4 and (pdN)5; with 5' end labeled substrates, the main labeled product is (pdA)2. The rate of product release from 3' and 5' end labeled substrates is nearly identical at 37 degrees C. A model of the action of this enzyme and a comparison with a human placenta exonuclease [Doniger, J., & Grossman, L. (1976) J. Biol. Chem. 251, 4579-4587] are discussed. 相似文献

ATP sulfurylase from Penicillium chrysogenum. Molecular basis of the sigmoidal velocity curves induced by sulfhydryl group modification 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
ATP sulfurylase from Penicillium chrysogenum is a noncooperative homooligomer containing three free sulfhydryl groups per subunit. Under nondenaturing conditions, one SH group per subunit was modified by 5,5'-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoate), or N-ethylmaleimide. Modification had only a small effect on kcat, but markedly increased the [S]0.5 values for the substrates, MgATP and SO4(2-). MgATP and adenosine-5'-phosphosulfate protected against modification. The SH-modified enzyme displayed sigmoidal velocity curves for both substrates with Hill coefficients (nH) of 2. Fluorosulfonate (FSO3-) and other dead-end inhibitors competitive with SO4(2-) activated the SH-modified enzyme at low SO4(2-) concentration. In order to determine whether the sigmoidicity resulted from true cooperative binding (as opposed to a kinetically based mechanism), the shapes of the binding curves were established from the degree of protection provided by a ligand against phenylglyoxal-dependent irreversible inactivation under noncatalytic conditions. Under standard conditions (0.05 M Na-N-(2-hydroxyethyl)piperazine-N'-3-propanesulfonic acid buffer, pH 8, 30 degrees C, and 3mM phenylglyoxal) the native enzyme was inactivated with a k of 2.67 +/- 0.25 X 10-3 s-1, whereas k for the SH-modified enzyme was 5.44 +/- 0.27 X 10-3 s-1. The increased sensitivity of the modified enzyme resulted from increased reactivity of ligand-protectable groups. Both the native and the SH-modified enzyme displayed hyperbolic plots of delta k (i.e. protection) versus [MgATP], or [FSO3-], or [S2O3(2-]) in the absence of coligand (nH = 0.98 +/- 0.06). The plots of delta k versus [ligand] for the native enzyme were also hyperbolic in the presence of a fixed concentration of coligand. However, in the presence of a fixed [FSO3-] or [S2O3(2-]), the delta k versus [MgATP] plot for the SH-modified enzyme was sigmoidal, as was the plot of delta k versus [FSO3-] or [S2O3(2-]) in the presence of a fixed [MgATP]. The nH values were 1.92 +/- 0.09. The results indicate that substrates (or analogs) bind hyperbolically to unoccupied SH-modified subunits, but in a subunit-cooperative fashion to form a ternary complex. 相似文献

Three new analogues of cAMP have been synthesized and characterized: 2-[(4-bromo-2,3-dioxobutyl)thio]adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (2-BDB-TcAMP), 2-[(3-bromo-2-oxopropyl)thio]-adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (2-BOP-tcAMP), and 8-[(4-bromo-2,3-dioxobutyl)thio]adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (8-BDB-TcAMP). The bromoketo moiety has the ability to react with the nucleophilic side chains of several amino acids, while the dioxobutyl group can interact with arginine. These cAMP analogues were tested for their ability to inactivate the low Km (high affinity) cAMP phosphodiesterase from human platelets. The 2-BDB-TcAMP and 2-BOP-TcAMP were competitive inhibitors of cAMP hydrolysis by the phosphodiesterase with Ki values of 0.96 +/- 0.12 and 0.70 +/- 0.12 microM, respectively. However, 2-BDB-TcAMP and 2-BOP-TcAMP did not irreversibly inactivate the phosphodiesterase at pH values from 6.0 to 7.5 and at concentrations up to 10 mM. These results indicate that although the 2-substituted TcAMP analogues bind to the enzyme, there are no reactive amino acids in the vicinity of the 2-position of the cAMP binding site. In contrast, incubation of the platelet low Km cAMP phosphodiesterase with 8-BDB-TcAMP resulted in a time-dependent, irreversible inactivation of the enzyme with a second-order rate constant of 0.031 +/- 0.009 min-1 mM1. Addition of the substrates, cAMP and cGMP, and the product, AMP, to the reaction mixture resulted in marked decreases in the inactivation rate, suggesting that the inactivation was due to reaction at the active site of the phosphodiesterase.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

To assess the RNA helicase activity of hepatitis C virus (HCV) nonstructural protein 3 (NS3), a polypeptide encompassing amino acids 1175 to 1657, which cover only the putative helicase domain, was expressed in Escherichia coli by a pET expression vector. The protein was purified to near homogeneity and assayed for RNA helicase activity in vitro with double-stranded RNA substrates prepared from a multiple cloning sequence and an HCV 5' nontranslated region (5'-NTR) or 3'-NTR. The enzyme acted successfully on substrates containing both 5' and 3' single-stranded regions (standard) or on substrates containing only the 3' single-stranded regions (3'/3') but failed to act on substrates containing only the 5' single-stranded regions (5'/5') or on substrates lacking the single-stranded regions (blunt). These results thus suggest 3' to 5' directionality for HCV RNA helicase activity. However, a 5'/5' substrate derived from the HCV 5'-NTR was also partially unwound by the enzyme, possibly because of unique properties inherent in the 5' single-stranded regions. Gel mobility shift analyses demonstrated that the HCV NS3 helicase could bind to either 5'- or 3'-tailed substrates but not to substrates lacking a single-stranded region, indicating that the polarity of the RNA strand to which the helicase bound was a more important enzymatic activity determinant. In addition to double-stranded RNA substrates, HCV NS3 helicase activity could displace both RNA and DNA oligonucleotides on a DNA template, suggesting that HCV NS3 too was disposed to DNA helicase activity. This study also demonstrated that RNA helicase activity was dramatically inhibited by the single-stranded polynucleotides. Taken altogether, our results indicate that the HCV NS3 helicase is unique among the RNA helicases characterized so far. 相似文献

The transition state of the Vmax mutant of AMP nucleosidase from Azotobacter vinelandii [Leung, H. B., & Schramm, V. L. (1981) J. Biol. Chem. 256, 12823-12829] has been characterized by heavy-atom kinetic isotope effects in the presence and absence of MgATP, the allosteric activator. The enzyme catalyzes hydrolysis of the N-glycosidic bond of AMP at approximately 2% of the rate of the normal enzyme with only minor changes in the Km for substrate, the activation constant for MgATP, and the Ki for formycin 5'-phosphate, a tight-binding competitive inhibitor. Isotope effects were measured as a function of the allosteric activator concentration that increases the turnover number of the enzyme from 0.006 s-1 to 1.2 s-1. The kinetic isotope effects were measured with the substrates [1'-3H]AMP, [2'-2H]AMP, [2'-2H]AMP, [9-15N]AMP, and [1',9-14C, 15N]AMP. All substrates gave significant kinetic isotope effects in a pattern that establishes that the reaction expresses intrinsic kinetic isotope effects in the presence or absence of MgATP. The kinetic isotope effect with [9-15N]AMP decreased from 1.034 +/- 0.002 to 1.021 +/- 0.002 in response to MgATP. The [1'-3H]AMP isotope effect increased from 1.086 +/- 0.003 to 1.094 +/- 0.002, while the kinetic isotope effect for [1',9-14C, 15N]AMP decreased from 1.085 +/- 0.003 to 1.070 +/- 0.004 in response to allosteric activation with MgATP. Kinetic isotope effects with [1'-14C]AMP and [2'-2H]AMP were 1.041 +/- 0.006 and 1.089 +/- 0.002 and were not changed by addition of MgATP.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The 3(')-->5(')-exonucleolytic activity of human apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 (APE1) on mispaired DNA at the 3(')-termini of recessed, nicked or gapped DNA molecules was analyzed and compared with the primary endonucleolytic activity. We found that under reaction conditions optimal for AP endonuclease activity the 3(')-->5(')-exonuclease activity of APE1 manifests only at enzyme concentration elevated by 6-7 orders of magnitude. This activity does not show a preference to mismatched compared to matched DNA structures as well as to nicked or gapped DNA substrates in comparison to recessed ones. Therefore, the 3(')-->5(')-exonuclease activity associated with APE1 can hardly be considered as key mechanism that improves fidelity of DNA repair. 相似文献

Series of substrates derivatives of peptide deformylase were systematically synthesized and studied for their capacities to undergo hydrolysis. Data analysis indicated the requirement for a hydrophobic first side chain and for at least two main chain carbonyl groups in the substrate. For instance, Fo-Met-OCH3 and Fo-Nle-OCH3 were the minimal substrates of peptide deformylase obtained in this study, while positively charged Fo-Nle-ArgNH2 was the most efficient substrate (kcat/Km = 4.5 x 10(5) M-1.s-1). On the basis of this knowledge, 3-mercapto-2-benzylpropanoylglycine (thiorphan), a known inhibitor of thermolysin, could be predicted and further shown to inhibit the deformylation reaction. The inhibition by this compound was competitive and proved to depend on the hydrophobicity at the P1' position. Spectroscopic evidence that the sulfur group of thiorphan binds next to the active site metal ion on the enzyme could be obtained. Consequently, a small thiopseudopeptide derived from Fo-Nle-OCH3 was designed and synthesized. This compound behaved as a competitive inhibitor of peptide deformylase with KI = 52 +/- 5 microM. Introduction of a positive charge to this thiopeptide via addition of an arginine at P2' improved the inhibition constant up to 2.5 +/- 0.5 microM, a value 4 orders of magnitude smaller than that of the starting inhibitors. Evidence that this inhibitor, imino[(5-methoxy-5-oxo-4-[[2-(sulfanylmethyl)hexanoyl]amino]pentyl )am ino]methanamine, binds inside the active site cavity of peptide deformylase, while keeping intact the 3D fold of the protein, was provided by NMR. A fingerprint of the interaction of the inhibitor with the residues of the enzyme was obtained. 相似文献

Aldose reductase, purified to homogeneity from bovine kidney, is converted in a temperature-dependent process from a low-Km/low-Vmax form to a high-Km/high-Vmax form of the enzyme. Activation, which results in significant changes in the protein secondary structure, as detected by fluorescence spectroscopy, circular dichroism, and thiol modification with 5,5'-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoic acid), has no effect on the apparent Mr, pI, or homogeneity of the enzyme, as judged by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and agarose isoelectric focusing. Vmax, which varied less than 3-fold for a series of aldehyde substrates with either activation state of the enzyme, increased an average of (17 +/- 4)-fold upon activation of the enzyme. V/Kaldehyde increased or decreased up to 4-fold, depending on the substrate. Activation desensitized the enzyme to inhibition by aldose reductase inhibitors, with the apparent Ki value increasing from 2-fold for Epalrestat [ONO-2235, (E)-3-(carboxymethyl)-(E)-5-[2-methyl-3-phenylpropenylidene]-rhoda nine] to 200-fold for AL-1576 (spiro [2,7-difluorofluorene-9,4'-imidazolidine]-2',5'-dione). Biphasic double-reciprocal plots for the aldehyde substrates and biphasic Dixon plots for inhibition by AL-1576 and Statil [ICI-128,436; 3-[(4-bromo-2-fluorobenzyl)-4-oxo-3H-phthalazin-l-ylacetic acid], observed during the course of activation, are quantitatively accounted for by the individual contributions of the two enzyme forms. On the basis of an analysis of the kinetic data, a mechanism is proposed in which isomerization of the free enzyme limits the rate of the forward reaction for the unactivated enzyme and is the primary step affected by activation. 相似文献

T4 RNA ligase catalyzes the synthesis of ATP beta,gamma-bisphosphonate analogues, using the following substrates with the relative velocity rates indicated between brackets: methylenebisphosphonate (pCH(2)p) (100), clodronate (pCCl(2)p) (52), and etidronate (pC(OH)(CH(3))p) (4). The presence of pyrophosphatase about doubled the rate of these syntheses. Pamidronate (pC(OH)(CH(2)-CH(2)-NH(2))p), and alendronate (pC(OH)(CH(2)-CH(2)-CH(2)-NH(2))p) were not substrates of the reaction. Clodronate displaced the AMP moiety of the complex E-AMP in a concentration dependent manner. The K(m) values and the rate of synthesis (k(cat)) determined for the bisphosphonates as substrates of the reaction were, respectively: methylenebisphosphonate, 0.26+/-0.05 mM (0.28+/-0.05 s(-1)); clodronate, 0.54+/-0.14 mM (0.29+/-0.05 s(-1)); and etidronate, 4.3+/-0.5 mM (0.028+/-0.013 s(-1)). In the presence of GTP, and ATP or AppCCl(2)p the relative rate of synthesis of adenosine 5',5'-P(1),P(4)-tetraphosphoguanosine (Ap(4)G) was around 100% and 33%, respectively; the methylenebisphosphonate derivative of ATP (AppCH(2)p) was a very poor substrate for the synthesis of Ap(4)G. To our knowledge this report describes, for the first time, the synthesis of ATP beta,gamma-bisphosphonate analogues by an enzyme different to the classically considered aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases. 相似文献

The collagenase from Clostridium histolyticum is a mixture of several collagenases, all of which are zinc metalloproteases. This enzyme catalyzes the cleavage of the X-Gly peptide bond in the repeating sequence of collagen: -Gly-Pro-X-Gly-Pro-X-. Thus the S3, S2, and S1 subsites on the enzyme appear to be occupied by the sequence -Gly-Pro-X- and the S1', S2', and S3' subsites also by -Gly-Pro-X-. Short peptides up to and including N alpha-acyltetrapeptides containing the repeat sequence do not detectably inhibit the enzyme (IC50 greater than 10 mM). However, peptide aldehydes of the form aminoacyl-X-glycinal, presumably occupying the S1, S2, ..., Sn subsites, are inhibitors. The most potent of these was Pro6-Gly-Pro-glycinal, with an IC50 of 340 +/- 70 microM. The single peptide aldehyde investigated, which could occupy the S1' and S2' subsites, 4-oxobutanoyl-L-proline, did not inhibit collagenase (IC50 greater than 20 mM). The peptide ketone 5-benzamido-4-oxo-6-phenylhexanoyl-Pro-Ala (XXV), which could occupy the S1-S3' subsites, inhibits collagenase with an IC50 of 120 +/- 50 microM, over 80-fold more potently than its parent peptide analogue benzoyl-Phe-Gly-Pro-Ala (XXIII). The alcohol analogue of XXV, 5-benzamido-4-hydroxy-6-phenylhexanoyl-Pro-Ala (XXVI), is over 60-fold less potent with an IC50 of 8 +/- 2mM. Extending the peptide ketone XXV to occupy the S2-S3' subsites gave 5-(N alpha-carbobenzoxy-L-prolinamido)-4-oxo-6-phenylhexanoyl-Pro -Ala (XXVII). Surprisingly, XXVII had an IC50 of only 5.2 +/- 2 mM.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Catabolism of Ap4A and Ap3A in human serum. Identification of isoenzymes and their partial characterization 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
A hydrolase splitting adenosine (5')triphospho(5')adenosine (Ap3A) and adenosine(5')tetraphospho(5')adenosine (Ap4A) has recently been highly purified from human plasma [Lüthje, J. and Ogilvie, A. (1985) Eur. J. Biochem. 149, 119-127]. This enzyme has been shown to have 5'-nucleotide phosphodiesterase activity (5'-NPD). Three isoenzymes splitting Ap4A and Ap3A were found in human serum by means of native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. They exactly comigrated with the 5'-NPD isoenzymes I, III and IV according to published nomenclature, and were designated Ap4Aase isozymes I, III and IV. Their Km values with Ap4A as a substrate were 3 microM, 2 microM and 10 microM, respectively. No Ap4A splitting activity corresponding to 5'-NDP-II was found. Further experiments were designed to prove the identity of Ap4Aases with 5'-NPD isoenzymes. Corresponding isozymes of both activities showed identical behaviour upon delipidation of serum with n-butanol: activities I and III were inactivated, whereas IV remained unaffected. Addition of phosphate stimulated Ap4Aase and 5'-NPD isoenzymes I and III, whereas both activities of isozyme IV were inhibited. Further evidence for the identity was obtained when investigating a series of normal and pathological sera showing decreased as well as increased activities of the single isoenzymes. In all cases Ap4Aase and 5'-NPD isoenzymes showed a linear correlation. 相似文献

The tertiary structure of template-primer and gapped DNA substrates in the complex with rat polymerase beta (pol beta) has been examined using the fluorescence energy transfer method based on the multiple donor-acceptor approach. In these studies, we used DNA substrates labeled at the 5' end of the template strand and the 5' end of the primer with the fluorescent donor and/or acceptor. Measurements of the enzyme complex with the template-primer DNA substrate having a ten nucleotide long ssDNA extension indicate that the distance between the 5' end of the template strand and the 5' end of the primer decreases by approximately 9.8 A as compared to the free nucleic acid. Analogous experiments with the template-primer substrate, having the ssDNA extension with five nucleotide residues, show approximately 6.6 A distance decrease. Such large distance decreases indicate that the DNA is significantly bent in the binding site. Analysis of the data indicates that the bending occurs between the third and the fourth nucleotide of the ssDNA extension. The entire template strand is at the bend angle Theta(TP) = 85 +/- 7 degrees with respect to the dsDNA part of the DNA molecule. In the polymerase complex with the gapped DNA, the distance between the 5' ends of the DNA and the bend angle are 66 +/- 2.2 A and 65 +/- 6 degrees, respectively. These values are very similar to the same distance and bend angle of the gap complex in the crystal structure of the co-complex. The presence of the 5'-terminal PO(4)(-) group downstream from the primer does not affect the tertiary conformation of the gapped DNA, indicating that the effect of the phosphate group is localized at the ssDNA gap. 相似文献

Further characterization of DNA helicase activity of mouse DNA-dependent adenosinetriphosphatase B (DNA helicase B) 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
The DNA helicase activity of DNA-dependent ATPase B purified from mouse FM3A cells [Seki, M., Enomoto, T., Hanaoka, F., & Yamada, M. (1987) Biochemistry 26, 2924-2928] has been further characterized. The helicase activity was assayed with partially duplex DNA substrates in which oligonucleotides to be released by the enzyme were radiolabeled. Oligonucleotides with or without phosphate at the 5' termini or with a deoxy- or dideoxyribose at the 3'-terminal nucleotides were displaced by this enzyme with essentially the same efficiency and with the same ATP (and dATP) and Mg2+ requirements. Thus, there was no strict structure requirement for both ends of duplex regions of substrates to be unwound by the enzyme. Shorter strands were released more readily than longer strands up to the length of 140 bases. The attachment of the enzyme to a single-stranded DNA region was a prerequisite for the neighboring duplex to be unwound; the enzyme-catalyzed unwinding was inhibited competitively by the coaddition of single-stranded DNAs which act as cofactors of the ATPase activity. Their activities as the inhibitor of helicase were well correlated with those as the cofactor of ATPase. The helicase B was found to migrate along single-stranded DNA in the 5' to 3' direction by the use of single strands with short duplex regions at both 3' and 5' ends as substrate. A possible role of this enzyme in DNA replication in mammalian cells is discussed. 相似文献

The parameters of the hydrolysis of ATP and several analogs by soluble mitochondrial ATPase were determined. Vmax of the reaction decreases within the range: 2'-desoxy-ATP greater than ATP greater than etheno-ATP greater than GTP greater than 3'-O-methylATP greater than UTP. ATP, 2'-desoxypATP, 3'O-methyl-ATP, GTP, and etheno-ATP are hydrolysed by soluble mitochondrial ATPase with close Km(app) values. CTP is not hydrolysed by the enzyme and does not inhibit the ATPase reaction at a concentration of 10(-2) M. Nucleoside triphosphate derivatives with an "open" ribose cycle 9-[1',5'-dihydroxy-4-(S)-hydroxymethyl-3'-oxapent-2' (R)-yl]adenyl-5'-triphosphate, and 1-[1',5'-dihydroxy-4'-(S)-hydroxymethyl-3'-oxapent-2'(R)-yl[cytosine-5'-triphosphate are effective inhibitors of ATPase (Ki approximately 5.10(-5)M). Mitochondrial ATPase binds the ATP analogs that have hydrocarbon radicals-(CH2)2-, -(CH2)3-, and (CH2)4- instead of the ribose residues: 9-(2'hydroxyethyl)adenyl-2'-triphosphate, 9-(3'-hydroxypropyl)-adenine-3'-triphosphate, and 9-(4'-hydroxybutyl)adenine-4'-triphosphyl)adenine-4'-triphosphate were not hydrolysed by the enzyme, although they inbibit the ATPase reaction (Ki 2.10(-4)M). 9-(2'-hydroxyethyl)adenine-2'-triphosphate is hydrolysed by ATPase eight times more slowly than ATP. It is suggested that the hydrolysis of the substrates of mitochondrial ATPase is- preceded by the binding of the substrates in a tense conformation in the active site of the enzyme. 相似文献

A specific Mg2+-dependent bis(5'-adenosyl)-triphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.29) was purified 270-fold from Escherichia coli. The enzyme had a strict requirement for Mg2+. Other divalent cations, such as Mn2+, Ca2+, or Co2+, were not effective. The products of the reaction with bis(5'-adenosyl) triphosphate (Ap3A) as the substrate were ADP and AMP in stoichiometric amounts. The Km for Ap3A was 12 +/- 5 microM. Bis(5'-adenosyl) di-, tetra-, and pentaphosphates, NAD+, ATP, ADP, AMP, glucose 6-phosphate, p-nitrophenylphosphate, bis-p-nitrophenylphospate, and deoxyribosylthymine-5'-(4-nitrophenylphosphate) were not substrates of the reaction. The enzyme had a molecular mass of 36 kilodaltons (as determined both by gel filtration and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis), an isoelectric point of 4.84 +/- 0.05, and a pH optimum of 8.2 to 8.5. Zn2+, a known potent inhibitor of rat liver bis(5'-adenosyl)-triphosphatase and bis(5'-guanosyl)-tetraphosphatase (EC 3.6 1.17), was without effect. The enzyme differs from the E. coli diadenosine 5',5'-P1, P4-tetraphosphate pyrophosphohydrolase which, in the presence of Mn2+, also hydrolyzes Ap3A. 相似文献

Kumamolysin, a carboxyl proteinase from Bacillus novosp. MN-32, is characterized by its thermostability and insensitivity to aspartic proteinase inhibitors such as pepstatin, diazoacetyl-DL-norleucine methylester, and 1,2-epoxy-3-(p-nitro-phenoxy)propane. Here, its substrate specificity was elucidated using two series of synthetic chromogenic substrates: P(5)-P(4)-P(3)-P(2)-Phe*Nph (p-nitrophenylalanine: *cleavage site)-P(2)'-P(3)', in which the amino acid residues at the P(5)-P(2), P(2)' and P(3)' positions were systematically substituted. Among 74 substrates, kumamolysin was shown to hydrolyze Lys-Pro-Ile-Pro-Phe-Nph-Arg-Leu most effectively. The kinetic parameters of this peptide were K(m) = 41+/-5 microM, k(cat) = 176+/- 10 s(-1), and k(cat)/K(m) = 4.3+/-0.6 mM(-1) x s(-1). These systematic analyses revealed the following features: (i) Kumamolysin had a unique preference for the P(2) position. Kumamolysin preferentially hydrolyzed peptides having an Ala or Pro residue at the P(2) position; this was also observed for the pepstatin-insensitive carboxyl proteinase from Bacillus coagulans J-4 [J-4; Shibata et al. (1998) J. Biochem. 124, 642-647]. Other carboxyl proteinases, including Pseudomonas sp. 101 pepstatin-insensitive carboxyl proteinase (PCP) and Xanthomonas sp. T-22 pepstatin-insensitive carboxyl proteinase (XCP), preferred peptides having hydrophobic and bulky amino acid residue such as Leu at the P(2) position. (ii) Kumamolysin preferred such charged amino acid residues as Glu or Arg at the P(2)' position, suggesting that the S(2)' subsite of kumamolysin is occupied by hydrophilic residues, similar to that of PCP, XCP, and J-4. In general, the S(2)' subsite of pepstatin-sensitive carboxyl proteinases (aspartic proteinases) is hydrophobic in nature. Thus, the hydrophilic nature of the S(2)' subsite was confirmed to be a distinguishing feature of pepstatin-insensitive carboxyl proteinases from prokaryotes. 相似文献
