To investigate the mechanism of allosteric switching in human hemoglobin, we have studied the dissociation of the ligand (CO) from several intermediate ligation states by a stopped-flow kinetic technique that utilizes competitive binding of CO by microperoxidase. The hemoglobin species investigated include Hb(CO)4, the diliganded symmetrical species (alpha beta-CO)2 and (alpha-CO beta)2, and the di- and monoliganded asymmetrical species (alpha-CO beta-CO)(alpha beta), (alpha-CO beta)(alpha beta-CO), (alpha beta-CO) (alpha beta), and (alpha-CO beta)(alpha beta). They were obtained by rapid reduction with dithionite of the corresponding valence intermediates that in turn were obtained by chromatography or by hybridization. The nature and concentration of the intermediates were determined by isoelectric focusing at -25 degrees C. The study was performed at varying hemoglobin concentrations (0.1, 0.02, and 0.001 mM [heme]), pH (6.0, 7.0, 8.0), with and without inositol hexaphosphate. The results indicate that: (a) hemoglobin concentration in the 0.1-0.02 mM range does not significantly affect the kinetic rates; (b) the alpha chains dissociate CO faster than the beta chains; (c) the symmetrical diliganded intermediates show cooperativity with respect to ligand dissociation that disappears in the presence of inositol hexaphosphate; (d) the monoliganded intermediates dissociate CO faster than the diliganded intermediates; (e) the asymmetrical diliganded intermediates are functionally different from the symmetrical species. 相似文献

The rebinding of CO, O2, NO, methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, and n-butyl isocyanide to isolated alpha and beta chains and intact hemoglobin at pH 7, 20 degrees C was examined both during and after a 30-ns dye laser pulse. The resultant absorbance changes were analyzed in terms of a linear three-step reaction scheme: Hb + X in equilibrium with C in equilibrium with B in equilibrium with A or HbX, where A is the final bound state, and C and B are geminate states. Rate constants were assigned for each of the transitions in this mechanism using fitting procedures described previously for analyzing ligand rebinding to sperm whale myoglobin at room temperature (Gibson, Q. H., Olson, J. S., McKinnie, R. E., and Rohlfs, R. J. (1986) J. Biol. Chem. 261, 10228-10239). Five major conclusions were obtained. First, initial geminate recombination phases for the NO and O2 complexes of hemoglobin and its isolated subunits exhibit half-times equal to approximately 12 and approximately 440 ps, respectively. These values are in excellent agreement with more direct, picosecond measurements of the geminate recombination of HbNO (Cornelius, P. A., Hochstrasser, R. M., and Steele, A. W. (1983) J. Mol. Biol. 163, 119-128) and HbO2 (Friedman, J. M., Scott, T. W., Fisanick, G. J., Simon, S. R., Findsen, E. W., Ondrias, M. R., and MacDonald, V. W. (1985) Science 229, 187-229) following extremely short laser pulses. Second, the correspondence between our nanosecond measurements and the published picosecond data suggests strongly that the intrinsic photochemical yield of all ferrous, hexacoordinate heme complexes approaches one. Third, the major differences between the isolated alpha and beta chains involve the rate of ligand migration to the solvent, kC----X and the extent of recombination from the second geminate state, C, as measured by the ratio kC----B/kC----X. Fourth, for both isolated chains and intact hemoglobin, the rate and equilibrium constants for the formation of the initial O2 geminate state starting from ligand in the solvent (i.e. kX----B and KX----B) are 5-10 times greater than the corresponding parameters for the formation of the first CO geminate state. Fifth, the rate-limiting step for NO, O2, and isonitrile binding to hemoglobin and its isolated subunits is ligand migration up to the initial geminate state (i.e. kX----B). In the case of CO binding, both migration to state B and iron-ligand bond formation (kB----A) affect the overall, bimolecular association rate constant. 相似文献

We prepared normal and modified alpha and beta globulin chains in which C-terminal residues were enzymatically removed. The CD spectra of the deoxy form of these chains and the reconstituted modified Hb's were measured in the Soret region. The CD spectra of the modified Hb's were markedly different from the arithmetic means of respective spectra of their constituent chains. This difference was ascribed to the interaction between alpha 1 and beta 1 subunits to make the alpha 1 beta 1 dimer. The peak wavelength of the difference CD spectra could be classified into two groups, one was 433 +/- 1 nm and the other 437 +/- 1 nm. A comparison of this classification with the previously identified quaternary structures revealed that the R and T structures showed a maximum of the difference CD spectra at 437 +/- 1 nm and 433 +/- 1 nm, respectively. These results indicated that the R and T structures differed in the interaction between alpha 1 and beta 1 subunits. 相似文献

The assignment of carbon monoxide association rate constants to the alpha and beta subunits in native and mutant human deoxyhemoglobin tetramers 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

The association kinetics of CO binding to site-directed mutants of human deoxyhemoglobin were measured by stopped-flow rapid mixing techniques at pH 7.0, 20 degrees C. Hemoglobin tetramers were constructed from one set of native subunits and one set of mutated partners containing His(E7) to Gly, Val(E11) to Ala, or Val(E11) to Ile substitutions. The reactivity of beta Cys93 with p-hydroxymercuribenzoate was measured to ensure that the mutant deoxyhemoglobins were capable of forming T-state quaternary conformations. Time courses for the complete binding of CO were measured by mixing the deoxygenated proteins with a 5-fold excess of ligand in the absence and presence of inositol hexaphosphate. Association rate constants for the individual alpha and beta subunits in the T-state conformation were assigned by measuring time courses for the reaction of a small, limiting amount of CO with a 20-fold excess of deoxyhemoglobin (i.e. Hb4 + CO----Hb4(CO)). The effects of the E7 and E11 mutations in T-state alpha subunits were qualitatively similar to those observed for the same subunit in the R-state (Mathews, A.J., Rohlfs, R.J., Olson, J.S., Tame, J., Renaud, J-P., and Nagai, K. (1989) J. Biol. Chem. 264, 16573-16583). The alpha His58(E7) to Gly and Val62(E11) to Ala substitutions caused 80- and 3-fold increases, respectively, in k'CO for T-state alpha subunits, and the alpha Val62(E11) to Ile mutation caused a 3-fold decrease. The beta His63(E7) to Gly and Val67(E11) to Ala substitutions produced 70- and 8-fold increases, respectively, in k'CO for T-state beta subunits whereas these same mutations caused little effect on the rate of CO binding to R-state beta subunits. The beta Val67(E11) to Ile mutation produced the same large effect, a 23-fold reduction in k'CO, in both quaternary conformations of beta subunits. These kinetic results can be interpreted qualitatively in terms of differences between the alpha and beta subunits in the deoxy and liganded crystal structures of human hemoglobin (Perutz, M.F. (1990) Annu. Rev. Physiol. 52, 1-25). Both the structural and functional data suggest that the distal portion of the beta heme pocket is tightly packed in deoxyhemoglobin whereas the CO binding site in R-state beta subunits is much more open. In contrast, the distal portion of the alpha heme pocket is restricted sterically in both quaternary states.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献

We have utilized purified reactants and cofactors to examine the form of the stimulatory guanine nucleotide-binding regulatory component (Gs) of adenylate cyclase that serves as a substrate for ADP-ribosylation by cholera toxin; we have also investigated some of the consequences of that covalent modification. Activation of Gs with nonhydrolyzable analogs of GTP, which causes dissociation of its subunits, completely inhibits the toxin-catalyzed covalent modification. However, this effect cannot be explained by subunit dissociation, since activation of Gs by fluoride is not inhibitory and ADP ribosylation of the alpha (45,000-Da) subunit of Gs proceeds equally well in the presence and absence of the beta (35,000-Da) subunit. ADP-ribosylation of the alpha subunit of Gs decreases its apparent affinity for the beta subunit; however, the affinity of alpha and ADP-ribosyl-alpha for GTP appear to be approximately the same. ADP-ribosylation of Gs thus promotes the dissociation of its alpha and beta subunits. This effect may account for or contribute to the activation of adenylate cyclase by cholera toxin. 相似文献

The kinetics of O2 and CO binding to R-state human hemoglobin A0 and human hemoglobin cross-linked between the alpha chains at Lys99 residues were examined using ligand displacement and partial photolysis techniques. Oxygen equilibrium curves were measured by Imai's continuous recording method (Imai, K. (1981) Methods Enzymol. 76, 438-449). The rate of the R to T transition was determined after full laser photolysis of the carbon monoxide derivative by measuring the resultant absorbance changes at an isosbestic point for ligand binding. Chemical cross-linking caused the R-state O2 affinity of alpha subunits to decrease 6-fold compared with unmodified hemoglobin. This inhibition of O2 binding was the result of both a decrease in the rate constant for ligand association and an increase in the rate constant for dissociation. The O2 affinity of R-state beta subunits was reduced 2-fold because of an increase in the O2 dissociation rate constant. These changes were attributed to proximal effects on the R-state hemes as the result of the covalent cross-link between alpha chain G helices. This proximal strain in cross-linked hemoglobin was also expressed as a 5-fold higher rate for the unliganded R to T allosteric transition. The fourth O2 equilibrium binding constant, K4, measured by kinetic techniques, could be used to analyze equilibrium curves for either native or cross-linked hemoglobin. The resultant fitted values of the Adair constants, a1, a2, and a3 were similar to those obtained when K4 was allowed to vary, and the fits were of equal quality. When K4 was fixed to the kinetically determined value, the remaining Adair constants, particularly a3, became better defined. 相似文献

Specific dissociation of alpha B subunits from alpha-crystallin 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Exposure of bovine alpha-crystallin to 0.1 M glycine at pH 7 decreases the average molar mass of the protein from 700 to 420 kDa. When the pH is lowered to 2.5, in the same buffer, the alpha B chains specifically dissociate from the aggregates, leaving a particle of 290 kDa containing only alpha A chains. The decrease in the molar mass corresponds to the mass of the alpha B chains in the original aggregate. The pH-dependent dissociation is fully reversible. Similar changes were observed with rat and kangaroo alpha-crystallins but the dogfish protein was not affected. Sedimentation velocity analyses and fluorescence spectroscopy yielded a pK, for the dissociation, of 3.7 for alpha-crystallin and 4.0 for a homopolymer constructed from purified alpha B2 polypeptides. An alpha A2 homopolymer was virtually unaffected by the lowering of pH. The products from the dissociation were isolated and their properties studied by sedimentation analysis and acrylamide quenching of tryptophan fluorescence. The alpha B chains were found to be completely denatured, whereas the structure of the alpha A chains, in the 290 kDa, particle, were only slightly altered. Comparisons of the sequences of the various proteins examined suggested that decreased ionization of aspartic acid 127 in the alpha B chain was responsible for the specific dissociation of this polypeptide. 相似文献

The principal component of normal adult human hemoglobin was equilibrated under various conditions with 13CO2. Quantitative analysis of the carbamino resonance intensities over the pH range of 6.5 to 9.0 shows that the effects of conversion from the deoxy to the liganded state in reducing the carbamino adduct formation occur predominantly at Val-1beta. Analysis of the pH dependence of carbamino formation at constant total carbonates yields values of pKz and pKc for Val-1beta and Val-1alpha in the deoxy and liganded conditions. In contrast to the Val-1beta as the allosteric site for CO2, the Val-1alpha site is shown to be primarily an alkaline Bohr group. 2,3-Diphosphoglycerate is shown to reduce substantially the Val-1beta carbamino resonance intensity in deoxyhemoglobin. Evidence for 2,3-diphosphoglycerate effects in carbon monoxide hemoglobin at both Val-1alpha and Val-1beta sites is presented. Enhanced carbamino formation in carbon monoxide hemoglobin at Val-1beta is observed at pH values less than 7.8. Finally, chemical exchange analysis of the spectra shows the release rate of the deoxy Val-1alpha carbamino adduct to be greater than that for deoxy Val-1beta. At pH 7.47 k-1obs,beta congruent to 1.0 and k-1obs, alpha congruent to 11.0 s-1. 相似文献

The liganded hemoglobin (Hb) high-salt crystallization condition described by Max Perutz has generated three different crystals of human adult carbonmonoxy hemoglobin (COHbA). The first crystal is isomorphous with the "classical" liganded or R Hb structure. The second crystal reveals a new liganded Hb quaternary structure, RR2, that assumes an intermediate conformation between the R form and another liganded Hb quaternary structure, R2, which was discovered more than a decade ago. Like the R2 structure, the diagnostic R state hydrogen bond between beta2His97 and alpha1Thr38 is missing in the RR2 structure. The third crystal adopts a novel liganded Hb conformation, which we have termed R3, and it shows substantial quaternary structural differences from the R, RR2, and R2 structures. The quaternary structure differences between T and R3 are as large as those between T and R2; however, the T --> R3 and T --> R2 transitions are in different directions as defined by rigid-body screw rotation. Moreover, R3 represents an end state. Compared to all known liganded Hb structures, R3 shows remarkably reduced strain at the alpha-heme, reduced steric contact between the beta-heme ligand and the distal residues, smaller alpha- and beta-clefts, and reduced alpha1-alpha2 and beta1-beta2 iron-iron distances. Together, these unique structural features in R3 should make it the most relaxed and/or greatly enhance its affinity for oxygen compared to the other liganded Hbs. The current Hb structure-function relationships that are now based on T --> R, T -->R --> R2, or T --> R2 --> R transitions may have to be reexamined to take into account the RR2 and R3 liganded structures. 相似文献

We present a geometric analysis of the allosteric interface in the new Y state quaternary structure observed in liganded mutant hemoglobin Ypsilanti (β99 Asp → Tyr) by Smith, F.R., Lattman, E.E., Carter, C.W., Jr. (Proteins 10:81–91, 1991). The classical T to R quaternary structure change being a rotation of αβ dimers about an axis which is approximately parallel to the dimer axis of pseudosym-metry, the new quaternary structure is obtained by applying to R an additional rotation about an axis orthogonal to the first. This suggests that Y is a modified R state rather than an intermediate on the T to R pathway. Computer docking experiments designed to simulate the quaternary structure change support this suggestion. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献
