Competitive inhibition of soybean urease was studied at 36 degrees C in aqueous solution (pH 4.95) in the presence of polycarbonyl compounds (PCCs): oxalyldihydrazide (ODH), its polydisulfide (poly(DSODH)), three cyclic beta-triketones (CTKs), and seven cyclic PCC species of differing structure. The inhibition constants of ureolysis (Ki) varied in the range 8.5-3800 microM depending on the structure of organic chelators for the nickel atom in urease. It was shown that pH variation within the range from 3.85 to 7.40 exerted a strong effect on the values of Ki] of three CTKs and hydroxyurea, which was used as a reference: pH dependences of lgK(i) were linear in all cases and displayed a break at pH 6.0-6.5. The most effective inhibitor of ureolysis was poly(DSODH), which contained approximately 28 carbonyl groups in the polymer molecule. The role of such factors as the number of carbonyl groups per PCC molecule, mutual arrangement, and reaction medium pH in the efficiency of the process of urease inhibition is discussed.  相似文献

Competitive inhibition of soybean urease by 11 cyclic -triketones was studied in aqueous solutions at pH 7.4 and 36°C. This process was characterized quantitatively by the inhibition constant (K i), which showed a strong dependence on the structure of the organic chelating agents (nickel atoms in urease) and varied from 58.4 to 847 M. Under similar conditions, the substrate analogue (hydroxyurea) acted as a weak urease inhibitor (K i = 6.47 mM). At 20°C, competitive inhibition of urease with the ligand of nickel atoms (fluoride anion) was pH-dependent. At pH 3.85–6.45, the value of K i for the process ranged from 36.5 to 4060 M. Three nontoxic cyclic -triketones with K i values of 58.4, 71.4, and 88.0 M (36°C) were the most potent inhibitors of urease. Their efficacy was determined by the presence of three >C=O– groups in the molecule and minimum steric hindrances to binding with metal sites in soybean urease.  相似文献

Competitive inhibition of soybean urease by 15 triketone oximes has been studied at 36 degrees C in aqueous solution (pH 4.95). The studied oximes are supposed chelators for the nickel atom in the urease metallocenter. The inhibition constants of urea hydrolysis (K(i)) varied in the range 2.7-248 microM depending on the oxime structure. Analysis of this dependency demonstrates that the optimal inhibitor is the one containing carbonyl group in position 1 of the cycle, the ethoxyimino group and alkyl residue in the substituent in position 2, as well as the methoxycarbonyl group in position 4 of the cycle.  相似文献

Inactivation of urease (25 nM) in aqueous solutions (pH 5.0-6.0) treated with low-frequency ultrasound (LFUS; 27 kHz, 60 Wt/cm2, 36-56 degrees C) or high-frequency ultrasound (HFUS; 2.64 MHz, 1 Wt/cm2, 36 or 56 degrees C) has been characterized quantitatively, using first-order rate constants: kin, aggregate inactivation; kin*, thermal inactivation; and kin* (US), ultrasonic inactivation. Within the range from 1 nM to 10 microM, propyl gallate (PG) decreases approximately threefold the rate of LFUS-induced inactivation of urease (56 degrees C), whereas resorcinol poly-2-disulfide prevents this process at 1 nM or higher concentrations. PG completely inhibits HFUS-induced inactivation of urease at 1 nM (36 degrees C) or 10 nM (56 degrees C). At 0.2-10 microM, human serum albumin (HSA) increases the resistance of urease (at 56 degrees C) treated with HFUS to temperature- and cavitation-induced inactivation. Complexes of gallic acid polydisulfide (GAPDS) with HSA (GAPDS-HSA), formed by conjugation of 1.0 nM PGDS with 0.33 nM HSA, prevent HFUS-induced urease inactivation (56 degrees C).  相似文献

The kinetic characteristics (kcat, Km, and their ratio) for oxidation of iodide (I-) at 25 degrees C in 0.2 M acetate buffer, pH 5.2, and tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) at 20 degrees C in 0.05 M phosphate buffer, pH 6.0, with 10% DMF catalyzed by human thyroid peroxidase (HTP) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) were determined. The catalytic activity of HRP in I- oxidation was about 20-fold higher than that of HTP. The kcat/Km ratio reflecting HTP efficiency was 35-fold higher in TMB oxidation than that in I- oxidation. Propyl gallate (PG) effectively inhibited all four peroxidase processes and its effects were characterized in terms of inhibition constants Ki and the inhibitor stoichiometric coefficient f. For both peroxidases, inhibition of I- oxidation by PG was characterized by mixed-type inhibition; Ki for HTP was 0.93 microM at 25 degrees C. However, in the case of TMB oxidation the mixed-type inhibition by PG was observed only with HTP (Ki = 3.9 microM at 20 degrees C), whereas for HRP it acted as a competitive inhibitor (Ki = 42 microM at 20 degrees C). A general scheme of inhibition of iodide peroxidation containing both enzymatic and non-enzymatic stages is proposed and discussed.  相似文献

Based on the catalysis mechanism of urease, a homologous series of 10 cysteine derivatives (CysDs) was designed and synthesized, and their inhibitory activities were evaluated for microbial ureases (Bacillus pasteurii, BPU, and Proteus mirabilis, PMU) and for a plant urease [jack bean (Cavavalia ensiformis), JBU]. As already described, thiol-compounds might inhibit urease activity by chelating the nickel atoms involved in the catalysis process. In contrast to cysteine, which has been reported to be a very weak urease inhibitor, we verified a potential inhibitory activity of these CysDs. The kinetic data demonstrate that thiol derivatives are more effective than the respective thioether derivatives. Besides, thiol-CysDs had a reduced activity in acidic pH (5.0). Lineweaver-Burk plots indicated that the nature of inhibition was of noncompetitive type for all 10 compounds, with the minimum Ki value of 2 microM for N,N-dimethyl L-cysteine. It is proposed that these classes of compounds are more potent inhibitors of the bacterial ureases, compared with the plant-originated urease. Since microbial urease is directly involved in the infection process of many pathological organisms, this work demonstrates that thiol-CysDs represent a class of new potential urease inhibitors.  相似文献

Inhibition of soybean urease by polymeric substrate analogues, urea and thiourea polydisulfides (PDSU and PDSTU, respectively), or three thiophosphoric acid amides (TPAA), tri-(N-3-hydroxyphenyl)thiophosphamide (1), tri-(N-4,4'-aminodiphenyl)thiophosphamide, and di-oxy-(N-alpha-piridyl)thiophosphamide (3) was studied in aqueous solutions at various pH values. The inhibitory effects of all these substances were reversible and competitive with the lowest inhibition constant Ki 2.8 microM for TPAA-1 at pH 3.85. Above and below this pH value, Ki increased reaching 24 [mu]M at pH 7.2. All test substances inhibited urease comparably with known inhibitors such as thiols (cysteamine, etc.) and hydroxamic acid derivatives, but were less efficient than phosphorodiamidates. Structural features of possible urease inhibitors of higher efficiency were proposed.  相似文献

We examined several compounds for their mechanisms of inhibition with the nickel-containing active site of homogeneous Klebsiella aerogenes urease. Thiolate anions competitively inhibit urease and directly interact with the metallocenter, as shown by the pH dependence of inhibition and by UV-visible absorbance spectroscopic studies. Cysteamine, which possesses a cationic beta-amino group, exhibited a high affinity for urease (Ki = 5 microM), whereas thiolates containing anionic carboxyl groups were uniformly poor inhibitors. Phosphate monoanion competitively inhibits a protonated form of urease with a pKa of less than 5. Both the thiolate and phosphate inhibition results are consistent with charge repulsion by an anionic group in the urease active site. Acetohydroxamic acid (AHA) was shown to be a slow-binding competitive inhibitor of urease. This compound forms an initial E.AHA complex which then undergoes a slow transformation to yield an E.AHA* complex; the overall dissociation constant of AHA is 2.6 microM. Phenylphosphorodiamidate, also shown to be a slow-binding competitive inhibitor, possesses an overall dissociation constant of 94 pM. The tight binding of phenylphosphorodiamidate was exploited to demonstrate the presence of two active sites per enzyme molecule. Urease contains 4 mol of nickel/mol enzyme, hence there are two nickel ions/catalytic unit. Each of the two slow-binding inhibitors are proposed to form complexes in which the inhibitor bridges the two active site nickel ions. The inhibition results obtained for K. aerogenes urease are compared with inhibition studies of other ureases and are interpreted in terms of a model for catalysis proposed for the jack bean enzyme (Dixon, N.E., Riddles, P.W., Gazzola, C., Blakely, R.L., and Zerner, B. (1980) Can. J. Biochem. 58, 1335-1344).  相似文献

Irreversible inhibition, 99.8% of control values for chloride transport in human red blood cells, was obtained by well-established methods of maximum covalent binding of 4,4'-diisothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid (DIDS). The kinetics of the residual chloride transport (0.2%, 106 pmol.cm-2 x s-1) at 38 degrees C, pH 7.2) was studied by means of 36Cl- efflux. The outside apparent affinity, expressed by Ko1/2,c, was 34 mM, as determined by substituting external KCl by sucrose. The residual flux was reversibly inhibited by a reexposure to DIDS, and by 4,4'- dinitrostilbene-2,2'-disulfonate (DNDS), phloretin, salicylate, and alpha-bromo-4-hydroxy-3,5-dinitroacetophenone (Killer III) (Borders, C. L., Jr., D. M. Perez, M. W. Lafferty, A. J. Kondow, J. Brahm, M. B. Fenderson, G. L. Breisford, and V. B. Pett. 1989. Bioorganic Chemistry. 17:96-107), to approximately 0.001% of control cells, which is a flux as low as in lipid bilayers. The reversible DIDS inhibition of the residual chloride flux depended on the extracellular chloride concentration, but was not purely competitive. The half-inhibition concentrations at [Cl(o)] = 150 mM in control cells (Ki,o) and covalently DIDS-treated cells (Ki,c) were: DIDS, Ki,c = 73 nM; DNDS, Ki,o = 6.3 microM, Ki,c = 22 microM; phloretin, Ki,o = 19 microM, Ki,c = 17 microM; salicylate, Ki,o = 4 mM, Ki,c = 8 mM; Killer III, Ki,o = 10 microM, Ki,c = 10 microM.  相似文献

Affinity chromatography of Band 3 was performed using a series of affinity matrices synthesized with various inhibitor ligands and spacer arms. Hydrophilic spacer arms greater than four atoms in length were essential for Band 3 binding. An affinity resin prepared by reacting 4-acetamido-4'-isothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonate (Ki = 10 microM) with Affi-Gel 102 was found to be the most effective resin of the series tested. Solubilized proteins from human erythrocyte membranes were incubated with the affinity resin, and pure Band 3 was recovered by eluting with 4-benzamido-4'-aminostilbene-2,2'-disulfonate (BADS; Ki = 2 microM). Band 3 bound to the resin specifically in its stilbene disulfonate binding site, and optimal binding was achieved at pH 8 and at high ionic strength. At 4 degrees C, up to 80% of the bound Band 3 could be eluted by 1 mM BADS, whereas the remainder could be eluted under denaturing conditions using 1% lithium dodecyl sulfate. At 22 or 37 degrees C, the amount of BADS-elutable Band 3 was reduced with a concomitant increase of Band 3 in the lithium dodecyl sulfate elute. Thus, for successful affinity chromatography, the experiment must be carried out rapidly at 4 degrees C. This procedure was also used to purify the Band 3 protein from mouse, horse, pig, and chicken erythrocytes.  相似文献

Kinetic and thermodynamic studies have been made on the effect of acetaminophen on the activity and structure of adenosine deaminase in 50 mM sodium phosphate buffer pH 7.5, at two temperatures of 27 and 37 degrees C using UV spectrophotometry, circular dichroism (CD) and fluorescence spectroscopy. Acetaminophen acts as a competitive inhibitor at 27 degrees C (Ki = 126 microM) and an uncompetitive inhibitor at 37 degrees C (Ki = 214 microM). Circular dichroism studies do not show any considerable effect on the secondary structure of adenosine deaminase by increasing the temperature from 27 to 37 degrees C. However, the secondary structure of the protein becomes more compact at 37 degrees C in the presence of acetaminophen. Fluorescence spectroscopy studies show considerable change in the tertiary structure of the protein by increasing the temperature from 27 to 37 degrees C. Also, the fluorescence spectrum of the protein incubated with different concentrations of acetaminophen show different inhibition behaviors by the effector at the two temperatures.  相似文献

Onion and garlic essential oils were previously shown to inhibit mouse skin tumor promotion, as were the enzymes, lipoxygenase, and cyclooxygenase. In the present study, the inhibition of soybean lipoxygenase (EC 1.13.11.12) by onion and garlic components and related compounds was investigated. The IC50 values as well as the kinetic inhibition constants were determined for the most active compounds. Di-(1-propenyl) sulfide, an analog of the substrate moiety required for oxygenase action, was the only irreversible inhibitor observed with Ki = 59 microM and k3 = 0.53/min. Inhibition in the presence of substrate was uncompetitive at 88 and 132 microM linoleic acid with Ki = 129 microM. At 173 microM linoleic acid, however, inhibition was competitive with Ki = 66 microM. Dially trisulfide, allyl methyl trisulfide, and diallyl disulfide were competitive inhibitors, while 1-propenylpropyl sulfide and (E, Z)-4,5,9-trithiadodeca-1,6,11-triene 9-oxide (ajoene) were mixed inhibitors. Nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA), the most potent lipoxygenase inhibitor, was a competitive inhibitor with Ki = 0.29 microM. The results indicate a relative potency of inhibition for structural features in the following order: di(1-propenyl) sulfide greater than an alkenyl trisulfide greater than an alkenyl disulfide. Di(n-propyl) disulfide, a major onion oil component, inhibited neither lipoxygenase nor promotion. Di(1-propenyl) sulfide and ajoene inhibited both. This suggests that the inhibition of lipoxygenase may be involved in antipromotion.  相似文献

Chitinase activity from Candida albicans and its inhibition by allosamidin   总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6  
Candida albicans chitinase isolated using the Dyno-Mill disruption technique was characterized using an improved radiometric assay procedure. The enzyme had apparent temperature and pH optima of 45 degrees C and 6.5, respectively. The preparation yielded an apparent Km of 3.9 mg chitin ml-1 [17.6 mM-N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) equivalents] and V of 2.3 nmol GlcNAc formed min-1 (mg protein)-1. The potential of the streptomycete antibiotic allosamidin as an antifungal agent is discussed in view of its dose-dependent inhibition of C. albicans chitinase activity (IC50 = 0.3 microM). Allosamidin was a potent competitive inhibitor of enzyme activity (Ki = 0.23 microM).  相似文献

Poly(ADP-ribosylation) was demonstrated in the intestinal parasite Ascaris suum, especially in the reproductive tissues. The activity of the ADP-ribosyltransferase was found to depend on divalent cations and to be stimulated by deoxyribonuclease I about 5-fold. The reaction rate was optimal at a temperature of 30 degrees C and at pH about 8.4. The apparent Km value for NAD was estimated to be 0.2mM. The enzyme activity was effectively inhibited by nicotinamide (Ki = 65 microM) benzamide (6 microM), 3-aminobenzamide (10 microM), theophylline (35 microM) and thymidine (50 microM). The type of inhibition by these compounds was found to be competitive with respect to NAD.  相似文献

9-beta-D-Arabinofuranosyladenosine triphosphate (araATP) is a potent inhibitor of DNA primase. Primase readily incorporates araATP into primers, and primers containing araAMP are then elongated by DNA polymerase alpha (pol alpha) upon addition of dNTPs. AraATP did not inhibit utilization of primers under conditions where the ability of pol alpha to elongate primers was independent of the dATP concentration. The fraction of primers elongated by pol alpha was reduced by araATP only when elongation was dependent upon the dATP concentration. When the Ki for primase was measured in terms of the inhibition of the synthesis of primers that can be utilized by pol alpha, we obtained Ki = 2.7 microM (37 degrees C) and 2.0 microM (25 degrees C). Inhibition was competitive with ATP. Inhibition of pol alpha activity by araATP was measured under conditions where primase-catalyzed primer synthesis was required for the pol alpha activity. The decreased pol alpha activity was due to primase inhibition, and at constant dATP, araATP inhibition was competitive with ATP and gave Ki = 1.2 microM, similar to the Ki for primase alone. Increasing the dATP concentration had no effect on inhibition. In combination with previously reported in vivo data, we conclude that DNA primase is the primary in vivo target of the arabinofuranosyl nucleotides, not pol alpha.  相似文献

Microsomal chitinase activity from Candida albicans   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
Chitinase (E.C. 3.2.1.14) was characterized in microsomal fractions from yeast cells of Candida albicans. Following six washes with buffer (50 mM Bis-Tris.Cl, pH 6.5), enzyme activity of microsomes fell markedly to 0.3% of total and 6% of the specific activity detected in the low-speed supernatant (9000 X g) of a cell lysate. An apparently zymogenic, microsomal chitinase activity became more readily detectable with washing and after six washes enzyme activity was activated 1.7-fold following pre-incubation with trypsin. The following properties of microsomal chitinase were closely comparable with those for cytosolic chitinase (indicated in parentheses): Km = 2.1 mg chitin per ml (2.9 mg chitin per ml); temperature optimum = 45 degrees C (45 degrees C); inhibition by allosamidin competitive, Ki = 0.29 microM (competitive, Ki = 0.23 microM). A range of detergents solubilized and activated microsomal chitinase in a highly specific manner. Following density gradient centrifugation of microsomes, chitinase was distributed approximately evenly throughout the gradient suggesting that microsomal chitinase is not associated exclusively with any one membrane component. The possible morphogenetic role of microsomal chitinase is discussed in relation to the potential of this enzyme as a target for highly specific antifungal agents.  相似文献

1. The adenosine deaminase (ADA) activities of chicken erythrocyte and heart cytosols had pH optima of 6.5. The temperature optima for erythrocyte and heart ADA were 30 and 35 degrees C, respectively. 2. The deoxyadenosine/adenosine deamination ratios ranged from 0.75 to 0.84 for both ADA activities. 3. For erythrocyte ADA, Km values were 8.9-12.9 microM adenosine (range) and 8.3 microM 2'-deoxyadenosine. For heart ADA, Km values were 6.7-12.0 microM adenosine (range) and 5.3 microM 2'-deoxyadenosine. 4. Inosine was a competitive inhibitor of both erythrocyte (Ki = 73 microM) and heart (Ki = 109 microM) ADA.  相似文献

A peptide (PCB1) corresponding to the proregion of the rat cysteine protease cathepsin B was synthesized and its ability to inhibit cathepsin B activity investigated. PCB1 was found to be a potent inhibitor of mature cathepsin B at pH 6.0, yielding a Ki = 0.4 nM. This inhibition obeyed slow-binding kinetics and occurred as a one-step process with a k1 = 5.2 x 10(5) M-1 s-1 and a k2 = 2.2 x 10(-4) s-1. On dropping from pH 6.0 to 4.7, Ki increased markedly, and whereas k1 remained essentially unchanged, k2 increased to 4.5 x 10(-3) s-1. Thus, the increase in Ki at lower pH is due primarily to an increased dissociation rate for the cathepsin B/PCB1 complex. At pH 4.0, the inhibition was 160-fold weaker (Ki = 64 nM) than at pH 6.0, and the propeptide appeared to behave as a classical competitive inhibitor rather than a slow-binding inhibitor. Incubation of cathepsin B with a 10-fold excess of PCB1 overnight at pH 4.0 resulted in extensive cleavage of the propetide whereas no cleavage occurred at pH 6.0, consistent with the formation of a tight complex between cathepsin B and PCB1 at the higher pH. The synthetic propeptide of cathepsin B was found to be a much weaker inhibitor of papain, a structurally similar cysteine protease, and no pH dependence was observed. Inhibition constants of 2.8 and 5.6 microM were obtained for papain inhibition by PCB1 at pH 4.0 and 6.0, respectively.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

The Michaelis constant values for the highly purified pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC) from human heart are 25, 13 and 50 microM for pyruvate, CoA and NAD, respectively. Acetyl-CoA produces a competitive inhibition of PDC (Ki = 35 microM) with respect to CoA, whereas NADH produces the same type of inhibition with respect to NAD (Ki = 36 microM). The oxoglutarate dehydrogenase complex (OGDC) from human heart has active sites with two different affinities for 2-oxoglutarate ([S]0.5 of 30 and 120 microM). ADP (1 mM) decreases the [S]0.5 values by a half. The inhibition of OGDC (Ki = 81 microM) by succinyl-CoA is of a competitive type with respect to CoA (Km = 2.5 microM), whereas that of NADH (Ki = 25 microM) is of a mixed type with respect to NAD (Km = 170 microM).  相似文献
