On the soluble part of the coupling factor (CF1), extracted from spinach chloroplasts, three nucleotide-binding sites are identified. Three ADP are bound per CF1 when the enzyme is incubated with ADP either with or without Mg2+. Two ADP and one ATP are bound per CF1 when the enzyme is incubated with a limiting concentration of ATP, in the presence of Mg2+. At high ATP concentration, in the presence of Mg2+, one free ATP exchanges with one bound ADP and two ATP and one ADP remain bound per CF1. When Mg2+ is omitted from the incubation medium of ATP and CF1, only two ADP and around 0.5 ATP are bound per CF1. The three nucleotide binding sites of CF1 fall into two different and independent categories according to the ability of the bound nucleotides to be exchanged with free nucleotides. On one site the bound ADP is difficult to exchange. On the other two sites, the bound nucleotides. ADP or ATP, are readily exchangable. We propose that the two exchangeable sites form the catalytic part of the enzyme where ATP is hydrolyzed. When ATP concentration is high enough, in the presence of Mg2+, one ATP displaces one bound ADP and allows the ATP hydrolysis to proceed. We propose too that the site where ADP is difficult to exchange may represent the 'tight' ADP-binding site, different from the catalytic ones, which becomes exchangeable on the CF1 in vivo when the thylakoid membranes are energized by light, as stressed by Bickel-Sandk?tter and Strotman [(1976) FEBS Lett. 65, 102-106].  相似文献

1. To identify the functional groups that are involved in the conversion of beta-glycerophosphate by alkaline phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.1) from pig kidney, the kinetics of alkaline phosphatase were investigated in the pH range 6.6-10.3 at substrate concentrations of 3 muM-30 mM. From the plots of log VH+ against pH and log VH+/KH+m against pH one functional group with pK = 7.0 and two functional groups with pK = 9.1 were identified. These groups are involved in substrate binding. Another group with pK = 8.8 was found, which in its unprotonated form catalyses substrate conversion. 2. GSH inhibits the alkaline phosphatase reversibly and non-competitively by attacking the bound Zn(II). 3. The influence of the H+ concentration on the activation by Mg2+ ions of alkaline pig kidney phosphate was investigated between pH 8.4 and 10.0. The binding of substrate and activating Mg2+ ions occurs independently at all pH values between 8.4 and 10.0. The activation mechanism is not affected by the H+ concentration. The Mg2+ ions are bound by a functional group with a pK of 10.15. 4. A scheme is proposed for the reaction between enzyme, substrate, Mg2+ and H+ and the overall rate equation is derived. 5. The mechanism of substrate binding and splitting by the functional groups of the active centre is discussed on the basis of a model. Mg2+ seems to play a role as an autosteric effector.  相似文献

The delta- and epsilon-polypeptides were removed from chloroplast coupling factor 1 (CF1). The resulting enzyme, CF1(-delta, epsilon), is a stable active ATPase containing only alpha-, beta-, and gamma-polypeptides. The dependence of the steady-state kinetics of ATP hydrolysis catalyzed by CF1(-delta, epsilon) on the concentrations of ATP and ADP was found to be essentially the same as by activated CF1. Nucleotide binding studies with CF1(-delta, epsilon) revealed three binding sites: a nondissociable ADP site (site 1), a tight MgATP binding site (site 2), and a site that binds ADP and ATP with a dissociation constant in the micromolar range (site 3). Similar results have been obtained with CF1. For both CF1 and CF1(-delta, epsilon), the binding of MgATP at site 2 is tight only in the presence of Mg2+. Fluorescence resonance energy transfer was used to map distances between the gamma-sulfhydryl ("dark" site) and gamma-disulfide and between the gamma-sulfhydryl and the three nucleotide sites. These distances are within 5% of the corresponding distances on CF1. These results indicate that removal of the delta- and epsilon-polypeptides from CF1 does not cause significant changes in the structure, kinetics, and nucleotide binding sites of the enzyme.  相似文献

The catalytic part of chloroplast thylakoid ATPase, the chloroplast coupling factor CF1, is reversibly inactivated during incubation in the presence of Mg2+. The inactivation has two phases. Its fast phase occurs at basic pH of the incubation medium (k = 6 min-1), while the slow phase ( k = 0.1-0.2 min-1) depends on pH only slightly throughout the studied range (5.5-9.0). As followed from changes in the inactivation effect of magnesium ions, Mg2+ affinity for the enzyme decreases dramatically with decreasing medium pH. The pH-dependence of Mg2+ dissociation apparent constant suggests that the binding/dissociation equilibrium is determined by protonation/deprotonation of specific acid-base groups of the enzyme. The analysis of pH-dependence plots gives the equilibrium constant of magnesium dissociation (3-9 M) and the dissociation constant of the protonated groups pK 5.8-6.7). Sodium azide is known to stabilize the inactive CF1-MgADP complex; when added to the incubation medium it diminishes the Mg2+ dissociation constant and has no effect on the dissociation constant of the acid-base groups. At lower pH, Mg2+-inactivated CF1-ATPase reactivates. Octyl glucoside accelerates the reactivation, while Triton-100 affects it only slightly. The reactivation rate of membrane-bound CF1 (thylakoid ATPase) inactivated by preincubation with Mg2+ in the presence of gramicidin is a few times higher than that of isolated CF1. These results suggest that the reactivation of isolated and membrane-bound CF1-ATPase is determined by protonation of a limited number of acid-base groups buried in the enzyme molecule.  相似文献

1. A study of the initial reaction rates at variable substrate concentrations and of the molecular weight of the enzyme in the presence of different effectors, has been carried out using fructokinase (ATP: fructose 6-phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.4) from Streptomyces violaceoruber. 2. Saturation curves for MgATP or CoATP are sigmoidal and they change to hyperbolic in the presence of 10 mM Mg2+ or Co2+ in excess over the nucleoside triphosphate. 3. Saturation cuvves for fructose show intermediary plateaux at high (but not at low) concentrations of ATP or Mg2+. 4. The molecular weight of the enzyme in the presence of high concentrations of MgATP is 80 000. In the presence of fructose, and/or Mg2+, the molecular weight is 20 000. 5. The effects of MgADP, uncomplexed ADP or ATP, and low concentrations of detergent on the kinetics have been studied. The results are interpreted as showing the existence of cooperative effects.  相似文献

A kinetic study of ATP hydrolysis by soluble ATPase of chloroplasts (CF1) was made. At low concentrations of MgCl2 a linear increase of the reaction rate was observed during the increase in the ATP concentration up to 1 mM. At high concentrations of MgCl2 the dependence was of a more complicated nature. At MgCl2 concentrations lower than 0.1 mM the reaction approached second-order kinetics with respect to Mg2+; the increase in MgCl2 concentration resulted in a decrease of the reaction order. It is assumed that MgATP is the "true" substrate and MgADP the "true" inhibitor of the reaction. A reaction mechanism of ATP hydrolysis is postulated.  相似文献

The 1-phosphofructokinase (1-PFK, EC 2.7.1.56) from Pseudomonas putida was partially purified by a combination of (NH4)2SO4 fractionation and DEAE-Sephadex column chromatography. In its kinetic properties, this enzyme resembled the 1-PFK's from other bacteria. With the substrates fructose-1-phosphate (F-1-P) and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) Michaelis-Menten kinetics were observed, the Km for one substrate being unaffected by a variation in the concentration of the other substrate. At pH 8.0, the Km values for F-1-P and ATP were 1.64 X 10(-4) M and 4.08 X 10(-4) M, respectively. At fixed concentrations of F-1-P and ATP, an increase in the Mg2+ resulted in sigmoidal kinetics. Activity was inhibited by ATP when the ratio of ATP:Mg2+ was greater than 0.5 suggesting that ATP:2 Mg2+ was the substrate and free ATP was inhibitory. Activity of 1-PFK was stimulated by K+ and to a lesser extent by NH4+ and Na+. The reaction rate was unaffected by 2 mM K2HPO4, pyruvate, phosphoenolpyruvate, adenosine monophosphate, adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate, fructose-6-phosphate, glucose-6-phosphate, 6-phosphogluconate, 2-keto-3-deoxy-6-phosphogluconate, or citrate. The results indicated that the 1-PFK from P. putida was not allosterically regulated by a number of metabolites which may play an important role in the catabolism of D-fructose.  相似文献

The aim of this paper is to study some steady-state kinetic properties of sedoheptulose-1,7-bisphosphatase, its pH-dependence and the effect of a substrate analogue, fructose 2,6-bisphosphate. Studies were carried out with sedoheptulose 1,7-bisphosphate and with fructose 1,6-bisphosphate, an alternative substrate. The pK values are identical for both substrates, and fructose 2,6-bisphosphate behaves like a competitive inhibitor. These results suggest that there exists a unique active site for either sedoheptulose 1,7-bisphosphate or fructose 1,6-bisphosphate on the enzyme molecule. Increasing Mg2+ concentrations shifted the optimum pH. As for fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase, we believe that this shift is due to the neutralization of negative charges near the active centre [Cadet, Meunier & Ferté (1987) Eur. J. Biochem. 162, 393-398]. The free species of sedoheptulose 1,7-bisphosphate and fructose 1,6-bisphosphate are not the usual substrates of enzyme, nor is Mg2+. But the kinetics relative to the (Mg2+-substrate4-)2- complex is not consistent with this complex being the substrate. An explanation of this discrepancy is proposed, involving both the negative charges near the active centre and the positive charges of Mg2+. The observed Vmax. of the reduced enzyme is 65% of the theoretical Vmax. for both substrates, but the observed Vmax. relative to sedoheptulose 1,7-bisphosphate is 3 times the one relative to fructose 1,6-bisphosphate. The specificity constant (kcat./Km), 1.62 x 10(6) M-1.s-1 with respect to sedoheptulose 1,7-bisphosphate compared with 5.5 x 10(4) M-1.s-1 with respect to fructose 1,6-bisphosphate, indicates that the enzyme specificity towards sedoheptulose 1,7-bisphosphate is high but not absolute.  相似文献

In this work the two interconvertible forms of inorganic pyrophosphatase (EC 3.6.1.1) of Streptococcus faecalis were shown to differ in kinetics. The highly active form of the enzyme was more sensitive to the changes in the Mg2+ concentration, and thus also more sensitive to the inhibition caused by ATP, which competes with PPi for the chelation of Mg2+ ions. We have previously described a kinetic model for the less-active form of S. faecalis inorganic pyrophosphatase [Lahti & Jokinen (1985) Biochemistry 24, 3526-3530]. The kinetic model of the highly active enzyme form is proposed to be a modification of the model of the less-active form in which enzyme activation by free Mg2+ is necessary for the reaction to occur. In this model the enzyme exists in two states, referred to as R- and T-states. In the absence of ligands the enzyme is in the T-state. R-state, i.e. the catalytically active state, exists only in the presence of free Mg2+. Mg1PPi2- is the primary substrate, and free pyrophosphate is a weak inhibitor that cannot serve as a substrate for the highly active form of S. faecalis inorganic pyrophosphatase. This model closely resembles that previously presented for yeast inorganic pyrophosphatase.  相似文献

The ATPase activity of CF1 isolated from pea chloroplasts with epsilon-ATP, the fluorescent analog of ATP and ATP used as substrates, in the presence of Mg2+, Ca2+ and sodium sulfite (stimulator of the ATPase activity) was studied. The rate of epsilon-ATP hydrolysis in the presence of Mg2+ is nearly two times as low as that of ATP; an addition of sodium sulfite to the reaction mixture increases the reaction rate without changing the above ratio. The rate of Ca2+-dependent hydrolysis of epsilon-ATP is rather low as compared to that in the presence of Mg2+. epsilon-ADP is a competitive inhibitor of Mg2+-dependent ATPase reaction and inhibits this process in the presence of Ca2+, the inhibition being of a mixed type. Modification of CF1 by covalent binding of epsilon-ADP results in a 70-80% decrease of the Mg2+-dependent ATPase activity, the Ca2+-dependent ATPase activity is changed only insignificantly thereby. The differences in the activation of ATP and epsilon-ATP hydrolyses by Ca2+ and Mg2+ can be accounted for by the existence of two sites in the active center of CF1, which are specific for Mg2+ and Ca2+, respectively. It is concluded that the binding of epsilon-ADP occurs in the Mg2+-dependent ATPase site of the active center.  相似文献

The covalent binding of dialdehyde derivatives of ATP and ADP (o-ATP and o-ADP) results in inactivation of chloroplast CF1-ATPase, the degree of inactivation being increased at a rise in temperature and pH. o-ADP causes predominant inhibition of the Mg2+-dependent, while o-ATP--of both Mg2+- and Ca2+-dependent activities of CF1-ATPase. The substrates and reaction products prevent the enzyme inactivation, whereas the stimulators of the Mg2+-dependent ATPase activity enhance it. The effect of these stimulators is correlated with predominant incorporation of [3H] o-nucleotide into the beta-subunit of CF1. In the absence of the stimulators o-ADP is predominantly bound to the alpha-subunit of CF1. The binding of o-ADP and o-ATP to the beta-subunit is increased in the presence of Mg2+. A comparative analysis of the labelled nucleotides incorporation into individual subunits and the changes in the catalytic and regulatory properties of the enzyme demonstrated that the catalytic and stimulator-sensitive "regulatory" sites of the enzyme are located on the beta-subunits.  相似文献

Inorganic pyrophosphatase from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mt-PPase) is one of the possible targets for the rational design of anti-tuberculosis agents. In this paper, functional properties of this enzyme are characterized in the presence of the most effective activators--Mg2+ and Mn2+. Dissociation constants of Mt-PPase complexed with Mg2+ or Mn2+ are essentially similar to those of Escherichia coli PPase. Stability of a hexameric form of Mt-PPase has been characterized as a function of pH both for the metal-free enzyme and for Mg2+- or Mn2+-enzyme. Hexameric metal-free Mt-PPase has been shown to dissociate, forming monomers at pH below 4 or trimers at pH from 8 to 10. Mg2+ or Mn2+ shift the hexamer-trimer equilibrium found for the apo-Mt-PPase at pH 8-10 toward the hexameric form by stabilizing intertrimeric contacts. The pK(a) values have been determined for groups that control the observed hexamer-monomer (pK(a) 5.4), hexamer-trimer (pK(a) 7.5), and trimer-monomer (pK(a) 9.8) transitions. Our results demonstrate that due to the non-conservative amino acid residues His21 and His86 in the active site of Mt-PPase, substrate specificity of this enzyme, in contrast to other typical PPases, does not depend on the nature of the metal cofactor.  相似文献

Carbamate kinase has been prepared from Lactobacillus buchneri NCDO110. An approximately 91-fold increase in the specific activity of the enzyme was achieved. The purified extract exhibited a single band following polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The apparent molecular weight as determined by gel electrophoresis was about 97,000. The enzyme is stable for 2 weeks at -20 degrees C. Maximum enzymatic activity was observed at 30 degrees C and pH 5.4 in 0.1 M acetate buffer. L. buchneri carbamate kinase requires Mg2+ or Mn2+; its activity is higher with Mn2+. The activation energy of the reaction was 4078 cal mol-1 for the reaction with Mn2+ and 3059 cal mol-1 for the reaction with Mg2+. From a Dixon plot a pK value of 4.8 was calculated. The apparent Km values for ADP with Mg2+ or Mn2+ were 0.71 X 10(-3) and 1.17 X 10(-3) M, respectively, and the apparent Km values for carbamyl phosphate with Mg2+ or Mn2+ were 1.63 X 10(-3) and 1.53 X 10(-3) M, respectively. ATP and CTP acted as inhibitors of this reaction and the following values were obtained: Ki (ATP)Mg2+ = 9.4 mM, Ki (ATP)Mn2+ = 6.2 mM, and Ki (CTP)Mg2+ = 4.4 mM.  相似文献

Mg2+ is known to be a potent inhibitor of F1 ATPases from various sources. Such inhibition requires the presence of a tightly bound ADP at a catalytic site. Results with the spinach chloroplast F1 ATPase (CF1) show that the time delays of up to 1 min or more in the induction or the relief of the inhibition are best explained by a slow binding and slow release of Mg2+ rather than by slow enzyme conformational changes. CF1 is known to have multiple Mg2+ binding sites with Kd values in the micromolar range. The inhibitory Mg2+ and ADP can bind independently to CF1. When Mg2+ and ATP are added to the uninhibited enzyme, a relatively fast rate of hydrolysis attained soon after the addition is followed by a much slower steady-state rate. The inhibited steady-state rate results from a slowly attained equilibrium of binding of medium Mg2+. The Kd for the binding of the inhibitory Mg2+ is in the range of 1-8 microM, in the presence or absence of added ATP, as based on the extent of rate inhibition induced by Mg2+. Assessments from 18O exchange experiments show that the binding of Mg2+ is accompanied by a relatively rapid change to an enzyme form that is incapable of hydrolyzing MgATP. When ATP is added to the Mg2+- and ADP-inhibited enzyme, the resulting reactivation can be explained by MgATP binding to an alternate catalytic site which results in a displacement of the tightly bound ADP after a slow release of Mg2+. Both an increase in temperature (to 50 degrees C) and the presence of activating anions such as bicarbonate or sulfite reduce the extent of the Mg2+ inhibition markedly. The activating anions may bind to CF1 in place of Pi near the ADP. Whether the inhibitory Mg2+ binds at catalytic or noncatalytic nucleotide binding sites or at another location is not known. The Mg2(+)- and ADP-induced inhibition appears to be a general property of F1 ATPases, which show considerable differences in affinity for ADP, Mg2+, and Pi. These differences may reflect physiological control functions.  相似文献

K+ appears to decrease the affinity of the (Na+ + K+)-dependent ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3) for its substrate, Mg2+ - ATP, and Mg2+ - ATP, in turn, appears to decrease the affinity of the enzyme for K+. These antagonisms have been investigated in terms of a quantitative model defining the magnitude of the effects as well as identifying the class of K+ sites on the enzyme involved. K+ increased the apparent Km for Mg2+ - ATP, an effect that was antagonized competitively by Na+. The data can be fitted to a model in which Mg2+ - ATP binding is prevented by occupancy of alpha-sites on the enzyme by K+ (i.e. sites of moderate affinity for K+ accessible on the "free" non-phosphorylated enzyme, in situ on the external membrane surface). By contrast, occupancy of these alpha-sites by Na+ has no effect on Mg2+ - ATP binding to the enzyme. On the other hand, Mg2+ - ATP decreased the apparent affinity of the enzyme for K+ at the alpha-sites, in terms of (i) the KD for K+ measured by K+-accelerated inactivation of the enzyme by F-, and (ii) the concentration of K+ for half-maximal activation of the K+-dependent phosphatase reaction (which reflects the terminal hydrolytic steps of the overall ATPase reaction). These data fit the same quantitative model. Although this formulation does not support schemes in which ATP binding effects the release of transported K+ from discharge sites, it is consistent with observations that K+ can inhibit the enzyme at low substrate concentrations, and that Li+, which has poor efficacy when occupying these alpha-sites, can stimulate enzymatic activity at high K+ concentrations by displacing the inhibitory K+.  相似文献

Kinetic studies with myo-inositol monophosphatase from bovine brain   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
A J Ganzhorn  M C Chanal 《Biochemistry》1990,29(25):6065-6071
The kinetic properties of myo-inositol monophosphatase with different substrates were examined with respect to inhibition by fluoride, activation or inhibition by metal ions, pH profiles, and solvent isotope effects. F- is a competitive inhibitor versus 2'-AMP and glycerol 2-phosphate, but noncompetitive (Kis = Kii) versus DL-inositol 1-phosphate, all with Ki values of approximately 45 microM. Activation by Mg2+ follows sigmoid kinetics with Hill constants around 1.9, and random binding of substrate and metal ion. At high concentrations, Mg2+ acts as an uncompetitive inhibitor (Ki = 4.0 mM with DL-inositol 1-phosphate at pH 8.0 and 37 degrees C). Activation and inhibition constants, and consequently the optimal concentration of Mg2+, vary considerably with substrate structure and pH. Uncompetitive inhibition by Li+ and Mg2+ is mutually exclusive, suggesting a common binding site. Lithium binding decreases at low pH with a pK value of 6.4, and at high pH with a pK of 8.9, whereas magnesium inhibition depends on deprotonation with a pK of 8.3. The pH dependence of V suggests that two groups with pK values around 6.5 have to be deprotonated for catalysis. Solvent isotope effects on V and V/Km are greater than 2 and 1, respectively, regardless of the substrate, and proton inventories are linear. These results are consistent with a model where low concentrations of Mg2+ activate the enzyme by stabilizing the pentacoordinate phosphate intermediate. Li+ as well as Mg2+ at inhibiting concentrations bind to an additional site in the enzyme-substrate complex. Hydrolysis of the phosphate ester is rate limiting and facilitated by acid-base catalysis.  相似文献

The plasma membrane H+-ATPase from bakers' yeast was purified and reconstituted with phosphatidylserine. The steady state kinetics of ATP hydrolysis catalyzed by the H+-ATPase were studied over a wide range of Mg2+ and ATP concentrations. Whereas MgATP was the substrate hydrolyzed, excess concentrations of either Mg2+ or ATP were inhibitory. The dependence of the steady state initial velocity of ATP hydrolysis on the concentration of MgATP at a fixed concentration of Mg2+ was sigmoidal rather than hyperbolic. This precluded mechanisms involving only activation and inhibition by Mg2+ and competitive inhibition by ATP. Two alternative interpretations of these results are: 1) the enzyme possesses multiple catalytic sites which interact cooperatively; or 2) the enzyme can exist in multiple conformational states which catalyze MgATP hydrolysis by parallel pathways. The rate laws for both mechanisms are identical so that the two mechanisms cannot be distinguished on the basis of the kinetic data. The data are well fit by the rate law for these mechanisms with the inclusion of competitive inhibition by Mg2+ and ATP and an independent inhibition site for Mg2+.  相似文献

The decarboxylation of oxalacetate shows equilibrium-ordered kinetics, with Mg2+ adding before oxalacetate. The Ki for Mg2+ increases below a pK of 6.9, corresponding to a ligand of the metal that is probably glutamate, and decreases above a pK of 9.2, corresponding to water coordinated to enzyme-bound Mg2+. Both V and V/KOAA decrease above the pK of 9.2, suggesting that the carbonyl oxygen of oxalacetate must replace water in the inner coordination sphere of Mg2+ prior to decarboxylation. The enzyme-Mg2+-oxalacetate complex must be largely an outer sphere one, however, since the pK of 9.2 is seen in the V profile. The phosphorylation of glycolate or N-hydroxycarbamate (the actual substrate that results from reaction of hydroxylamine with bicarbonate) occurs only above the pK of 9.2, with V/K profiles decreasing below this pH. The alkoxides of these substrates appear to be the active species, replacing water in the coordination sphere of Mg2+ prior to phosphorylation by MgATP. Glycolate, but not N-hydroxycarbamate, can bind when not an alkoxide, since the V profile for the former decreases below a pK of 8.9, while V for the latter is pH independent. Initial velocity patterns for phosphorylation of fluoride in the presence of bicarbonate show saturation by MgATP but not by fluoride. The V/K profile for fluoride decreases above the pK of 9.0, showing that fluoride must replace water in the coordination sphere of Mg2+ prior to phosphorylation. None of the above reactions is sensitive to the protonation state of the acid-base catalyst that assists the enolization of pyruvate in the physiological reaction.  相似文献

Pyruvate phosphate dikinase (PPDK) catalyzes the interconversion of ATP, P(i), and pyruvate with AMP, PP(i), and phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) in three partial reactions as follows: 1) E-His + ATP --> E-His-PP.AMP; 2) E-His-PP.AMP + P(i) --> E-His-P.AMP.PP(i); and 3) E-His-P + pyruvate --> E.PEP using His-455 as the carrier of the transferred phosphoryl groups. The crystal structure of the Clostridium symbiosum PPDK (in the unbound state) reveals a three-domain structure consisting of consecutive N-terminal, central His-455, and C-terminal domains. The N-terminal and central His-455 domains catalyze partial reactions 1 and 2, whereas the C-terminal and central His-455 domains catalyze partial reaction 3. Attempts to obtain a crystal structure of the enzyme with substrate ligands bound at the nucleotide binding domain have been unsuccessful. The object of the present study is to demonstrate Mg(II) activation of catalysis at the ATP/P(i) active site, to identify the residues at the ATP/P(i) active site that contribute to catalysis, and to identify roles for these residues based on their positions within the active site scaffold. First, Mg(II) activation studies of catalysis of E + ATP + P(i) --> E-P + AMP + PP(i) partial reaction were carried out using a truncation mutant (Tem533) in which the C-terminal domain is absent. The kinetics show that a minimum of 2 Mg(II) per active site is required for the reaction. The active site residues used for substrate/cofactor binding/activation were identified by site-directed mutagenesis. Lys-22, Arg-92, Asp-321, Glu-323, and Gln-335 mutants were found to be inactive; Arg-337, Glu-279, Asp-280, and Arg-135 mutants were partially active; and Thr-253 and Gln-240 mutants were almost fully active. The participation of the nucleotide ribose 2'-OH and alpha-P in enzyme binding is indicated by the loss of productive binding seen with substrate analogs modified at these positions. The ATP, P(i), and Mg(II) ions were docked into the PPDK N-terminal domain crevice, in an orientation consistent with substrate/cofactor binding modes observed for other members of the ATP-Grasp fold enzyme superfamily and consistent with the structure-function data. On the basis of this docking model, the ATP polyphosphate moiety is oriented/activated for pyrophosphoryl transfer through interaction with Lys-22 (gamma-P), Arg-92 (alpha-P), and the Gly-101 to Met-103 loop (gamma-P) as well as with the Mg(II) cofactors. The P(i) is oriented/activated for partial reaction 2 through interaction with Arg-337 and a Mg(II) cofactor. The Mg(II) ions are bound through interaction with Asp-321, Glu-323, and Gln-335 and substrate. Residues Glu-279, Asp-280, and Arg-135 are suggested to function in the closure of an active site loop, over the nucleotide ribose-binding site.  相似文献

The association of phenylalanylptRNA and Mg2+ follows a biphasic concentration dependence as indicated by the active site directed fluorescent indicator 2-p-toluidinyl-naphthalene-6-sulfonate. The macroscopic dissociation constants are 0.16 +/- 0.03 and 4.1 +/- mM. The effect of Mg2+ on the association of enzyme and MgATP, on the synergistic binding of MgATP and L-phenylalaninol, and on the pre-steady-state synthesis and pyrophosphorolysis of the enzyme-phenylalanyladenylate complex in the absence and the presence of tRNA Phe has been measured by established equilibrium and stopped-flow techniques using 2-p-toluidinylnaphthalene-6-sulfonate. At 10 mM Mg2+, the association of enzyme and MgATP is biphasic with dissociation constants of 0.25 +/- 0.03 and 9.1 +/- 1.7 mM. At 2 mM Mg2+, a single dissociation constant of 5.0 +/- 0.5 mM is indicated. The coupling constant of the synergistic reaction is 15 at 1 mM Mg2+ and 290 at 10 mM Mg2+. The Hill constant of the sigmoidal dependence is 3.6. The strengthening of the synergism is believed to reflect a Mg2+-dependent coupling of the synergistic reactions at the two active sites of the enzyme, the coupling being negligible at 1 mM and maximal at 10 mM Mg2+. The pre-steady-state rate of adenylate synthesis is accelerated by the presence of Mg2+. The effect is to decrease the value of the Michaelis-Menten constant of MgATP. Another effect is to increase the rate constant when tRNA Phe is present. At subsaturating [MgATP], the [Mg2+] dependence of the observed rate constant is hyperbolical in the absence and sigmoidal (Hill constant, 3.5) in the presence of tRNA Phe. The rate of the pyrophosphorolysis is enhanced by a decrease of the Michaelis-Menten constant of MgPPi. The effects on the thermodynamics and kinetics parallel the occupancy of the low-affinity Mg2+-binding sites of the enzyme.  相似文献
