Adenosine-5'-phosphosulfate kinase (ATP:adenylylsulfate 3'-phosphotransferase), the second enzyme in the pathway of sulfate activation, has been purified (approximately 300-fold) to homogeneity from an Escherichia coli K12 strain, which overproduces the enzyme activity (approximately 100-fold). The purified enzyme has a specific activity of 153 mumol of 3'-phosphoadenosine 5'-phosphosulfate (PAPS) formed/min/mg of protein at 25 degrees C. The enzyme is remarkably efficient with a Vmax/Km(APS) of greater than 10(8) M-1 s-1, indicating that at physiologically low substrate concentrations the reaction is essentially diffusion limited. Upon incubation with MgATP a phosphorylated enzyme is formed; the isolated phosphorylated enzyme can transfer its phosphoryl group to adenosine 5'-phosphosulfate (APS) to form PAPS or to ADP to form ATP. The phosphorylated enzyme exists as a dimer of identical 21-kilodalton subunits, while the dephosphorylated form primarily exists as a tetramer. Divalent cations are required for activity with Mg(II), Mn(II), Co(II), and Cd(II) activating. Studies of the divalent metal-dependent stereoselectivity for the alpha- and beta-phosphorothioate derivatives of ATP indicate metal coordination to at least the alpha-phosphoryl group of the nucleotide. Steady state kinetic studies of the reverse reaction indicate a sequential mechanism, with a rapid equilibrium ordered binding of MgADP before PAPS. In the forward direction APS is a potent substrate inhibitor, competitive with ATP, complicating kinetic studies. The primary kinetic mechanism in the forward direction is sequential. Product inhibition studies at high concentrations of APS suggest an ordered kinetic mechanism with MgATP binding before APS. At submicromolar concentrations of APS, product inhibition by both MgADP and PAPS is more complex and is not consistent with a solely ordered sequential mechanism. The formation of a phosphorylated enzyme capable of transferring its phosphoryl group to APS or to MgADP suggests that a ping-pong pathway in which the rate of MgADP dissociation is comparable to the rate of APS binding might contribute at very low concentrations of APS. The substrate inhibition by APS is consistent with APS binding to the enzyme, to form a dead-end E.APS complex.  相似文献

The kinetic mechanism of turkey gizzard smooth muscle myosin-light-chain kinase was investigated using the isolated 20-kDa light chain of myosin as substrate. The kinetic and product inhibition patterns of the forward reaction indicated an ordered sequential mechanism in which MgATP bound first, ADP was released last. The order of substrate binding and product release was confirmed independently by competitive, dead-end inhibition patterns obtained using the non-hydrolizable ATP analog adenosine 5'-[beta,gamma-imido]triphosphate. The mechanism was also characterized by a relatively strong product inhibition by ADP and a weak one by phosphorylated 20-kDa light-chain myosin, in addition to a significant inhibition by the latter product via a formation of a dead-end complex. [gamma-32P]ATP in equilibrium with [32P]phosphorylated light chain isotope-exchange data were consistent with the deduced mechanism and with the presence of the latter dead-end complex.  相似文献

The kinetic mechanism of phosphofructokinase has been determined at pH 8 for native enzyme and pH 6.8 for an enzyme desensitized to allosteric modulation by diethylpyrocarbonate modification. In both cases, the mechanism is predominantly steady state ordered with MgATP binding first in the direction of fructose 6-phosphate (F6P) phosphorylation and rapid equilibrium random in the direction of MgADP phosphorylation. This is a unique kinetic mechanism for a phosphofructokinase. Product inhibition by MgADP is competitive versus MgATP and noncompetitive versus F6P while fructose 1,6-bisphosphate (FBP) is competitive versus fructose 6-phosphate and uncompetitive versus MgATP. The uncompetitive pattern obtained versus F6P is indicative of a dead-end E.MgATP.FBP complex. Fructose 6-phosphate is noncompetitive versus either FBP or MgADP. Dead-end inhibition by arabinose 5-phosphate or 2,5-anhydro-D-mannitol 6-phosphate is uncompetitive versus MgATP corroborating the ordered addition of MgATP prior to F6P. In the direction of MgADP phosphorylation, inhibition by anhydromannitol 1,6-bisphosphate is noncompetitive versus MgADP, while Mg-adenosine 5'(beta, gamma-methylene)triphosphate is noncompetitive versus FBP. Anhydromannitol 6-phosphate is a slow substrate, while anhydroglucitol 6-phosphate is not. This suggests that the enzyme exhibits beta-anomeric specificity.  相似文献

Substrate inhibition is a common phenomenon in enzyme chemistry, which is observed only with a fast-reacting substrate enantiomer. We report here for the first time substrate inhibition of an enantioselective enzyme by both substrate enantiomers. The enantioselective substrate inhibition, i.e., different mode of inhibition by each substrate enantiomer, of (S)-specific omega-transaminase was found with various chiral amines. A kinetic model based on ping-pong bi-bi mechanism has been developed and kinetic parameters were measured. The kinetic model reveals that the inhibition by (R)-amine results from formation of Michaelis complex with enzyme-pyridoxal 5'-phosphate, whereas the inhibition by (S)-amine results from the formation of the complex with enzyme-pyridoxamine 5'-phosphate. Substrate inhibition constants (K(SI)) of each (S)-enantiomer of four chiral amines showed a linear correlation with those of cognate (R)-amines. Such a correlation was also found between the K(SI) values and Michaelis constants of (S)-amines. These correlations indicate that recognition mechanisms and active site structures of both enzyme-pyridoxal 5'-phosphate, enzyme-pyridoxamine 5'-phosphate are similar. Taken together with the results, high propensity for non-productive substrate binding strongly suggests that binding pockets of the omega-transaminase is loosely defined, which accounts for the enantioselective substrate inhibition.  相似文献

The thermostable phytase from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens DS11 hydrolyzes phytate (myo-inositol hexakisphosphate, IP6) to less phosphorylated myo-inositol phosphates in the presence of Ca2+. In this report, we discuss the unique Ca2+-dependent catalytic properties of the phytase and its specific substrate requirement. Initial rate kinetic studies of the phytase indicate that the enzyme activity follows a rapid equilibrium ordered mechanism in which binding of Ca2+ to the active site is necessary for the essential activation of the enzyme. Ca2+ turned out to be also required for the substrate because the phytase is only able to hydrolyze the calcium-phytate complex. In fact, both an excess amount of free Ca2+ and an excess of free phytate, which is not complexed with each other, can act as competitive inhibitors. The Ca2+-dependent catalytic activity of the enzyme was further confirmed, and the critical amino acid residues for the binding of Ca2+ and substrate were identified by site-specific mutagenesis studies. Isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) was used to understand if the decreased enzymatic activity was related to poor Ca2+ binding. The pH dependence of the Vmax and Vmax/Km consistently supported these observations by demonstrating that the enzyme activity is dependent on the ionization of amino acid residues that are important for the binding of Ca2+ and the substrate. The Ca2+-dependent activation of enzyme and substrate was found to be different from other histidine acid phytases that hydrolyze metal-free phytate.  相似文献

Constrained azacyclic analogues of FTY720 were prepared starting with d- and l-pyroglutamic acids. One enantiomer was shown to be a substrate for sphingosine kinase 2, being phosphorylated 4-fold more efficiently than FTY720. Among the corresponding phosphates, two were found to have unusual specificity in binding to S1P receptors: while being inactive on S1P1 and S1P3, they acted as potent agonists on S1P4 and S1P5. The phosphates may be useful to explore the biology and binding site of these receptors.  相似文献

The kinetic mechanisms of the reactions catalyzed by the two catalytic domains of aspartokinase-homoserine dehydrogenase I from Escherichia coli have been determined. Initial velocity, product inhibition, and dead-end inhibition studies of homoserine dehydrogenase are consistent with an ordered addition of NADPH and aspartate beta-semialdehyde followed by an ordered release of homoserine and NADP+. Aspartokinase I catalyzes the phosphorylation of a number of L-aspartic acid analogues and, moreover, can utilize MgdATP as a phosphoryl donor. Because of this broad substrate specificity, alternative substrate diagnostics was used to probe the kinetic mechanism of this enzyme. The kinetic patterns showed two sets of intersecting lines that are indicative of a random mechanism. Incorporation of these results with the data obtained from initial velocity, product inhibition, and dead-end inhibition studies at pH 8.0 are consistent with a random addition of L-aspartic acid and MgATP and an ordered release of MgADP and beta-aspartyl phosphate.  相似文献

The specificity of hog liver folylpolyglutamate synthetase for folate substrates and for nucleotide and glutamate substrates and analogues has been investigated. The kinetic mechanism, determined by using aminopterin as the folate substrate, is ordered Ter-Ter with MgATP binding first, folate second, and glutamate last. This mechanism precludes the sequential addition of glutamate moieties to enzyme-bound folate. Folate, dihydrofolate, and tetrahydrofolate possess the optimal configurations for catalysis (kcat = 2.5 s-1) while 5- and 10-position substitutions of the folate molecule impair catalysis. kcat values decrease with increasing glutamate chain length, and the rate of decrease varies depending on the state of reduction and substitution of the folate molecule. Folate binding, as assessed by on rates, is slow. Dihydrofolate exhibits the fastest rate, and the rates are slightly reduced for tetrahydrofolate and 10-formyltetrahydrofolate and greatly reduced for 5-methyltetrahydrofolate and folic acid. The on rates for most pteroyldiglutamates are similar to the rates for their respective monoglutamate derivatives, but further extension of the glutamate chain results in a progressive decrease in on rates. Tetrahydrofolate polyglutamates are the only long glutamate chain length folates with detectable substrate activity. The specificity of the L-glutamate binding site is very narrow. L-Homocysteate and 4-threo-fluoroglutamate are alternate substrates and act as chain termination inhibitors in that their addition to the folate molecule prevents or severely retards the further addition of glutamate moieties. The Km for glutamate is dependent on the folate substrate used. MgATP is the preferred nucleotide substrate, and beta,gamma-methylene-ATP, beta,gamma-imido-ATP, adenosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate), P1,P5-di(adenosine-5') pentaphosphate, and free ATP4- are potent inhibitors of the reaction.  相似文献

The kinetic mechanism of protein kinase C (PKC) was analyzed via inhibition studies using the product MgADP, the nonhydrolyzable ATP analogue adenosine 5'-(beta,gamma-imidotriphosphate) (MgAMPPNP), the peptide antagonist poly(L-lysine), and several naturally occurring ATP analogues that are produced in rapidly growing cells, i.e., the diadenosine oligophosphates (general structure: ApnA; n = 2-5). By use of histone as the phosphate acceptor, the inhibition of PKC by MgAMPPNP and MgADP was found to be competitive vs MgATP (suggesting that these compounds bind to the same enzyme form), whereas their inhibition vs histone was observed to be noncompetitive. In contrast, the inhibition by poly(L-lysine) appeared competitive vs histone but uncompetitive vs MgATP, which is consistent with a model wherein MgATP binding promotes the binding of poly(L-lysine) or histone. With the diadenosine oligophosphates, the degree of PKC inhibition was found to increase according to the number of intervening phosphates. The diadenosine oligophosphates Ap4A and Ap5A were the most effective antagonists of PKC, with Ap5A being approximately as potent as MgADP and MgAMPPNP. However, as opposed to MgADP and MgAMPPNP, Ap4A and Ap5A appear to act as noncompetitive inhibitors vs both MgATP and histone, suggesting that they can interact at several points in the reaction pathway. These studies support the concept of a steady-state mechanism where MgATP binding preferentially precedes that of histone, followed by the release of phosphorylated substrate and MgADP. Furthermore, these results indicate a differential interaction of the diadenosine oligophosphates with PKC, when compared to other adenosine nucleotides.  相似文献

The allosteric regulation of binding to and the activation of cGMP-dependent protein kinase (cGMP kinase) was studied under identical conditions at 30 degrees C using three forms of cGMP-kinase which differed in the amino-terminal segment, e.g. native cGMP kinase, phosphorylated cGMP kinase which contained 1.4 +/- 0.4 mol phosphate/subunit and constitutively active cGMP kinase which lacked the amino-terminal dimerization domain. These three enzyme forms have identical kinetic constants, e.g. number of cGMP-binding sites, Km values for MgATP and the heptapeptide kemptide, and Vmax values. In the native enzyme, MgATP decreases the affinity for binding site 1. This effect is abolished by 1 M NaCl. In contrast, high concentrations of Kemptide increase the affinity of binding site 2 about fivefold. Under the latter conditions, identical Kd values of 0.2 microM were obtained for sites 1 and 2. Salt, MgATP and Kemptide do not affect the binding kinetics of the phosphorylated or the constitutively active enzyme, suggesting that allosteric regulation depends solely on the presence of a native amino-terminal segment. Cyclic GMP activates the native enzyme at Ka values which are identical with the Kd values for both binding sites. The activation of cGMP-dependent protein kinase is noncooperative but the Ka value depends on the substrate peptide concentration. These results show that the activity of cGMP kinase is primarily regulated by conformational changes within the amino-terminal domain.  相似文献

Previous studies of Escherichia coli 5-enolpyruvoylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS, EC 2.5.1.19) have suggested that the kinetic reaction mechanism for this enzyme in the forward direction is equilibrium ordered with shikimate 3-phosphate (S3P) binding first followed by phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP). Recent results from this laboratory, however, measuring direct binding of PEP and PEP analogues to free EPSPS suggest more random character to the enzyme. Steady-state kinetic and spectroscopic studies presented here indicate that E. coli EPSPS does indeed follow a random kinetic mechanism. Initial velocity studies with S3P and PEP show competitive substrate inhibition by PEP added to a normal intersecting pattern. Substrate inhibition is proposed to occur by competitive binding of PEP at the S3P site [Ki(PEP) = 6-8 mM]. To test for a productive EPSPS.PEP binary complex, the reaction order of EPSPS was evaluated with shikimic acid and PEP as substrates. The mechanism for this reaction is equilibrium ordered with PEP binding first giving a Kia value for PEP in agreement with the independently measured Kd of 0.39 mM (shikimate Km = 25 mM). Results from this study also show that the 3-phosphate moiety of S3P offers 8.7 kcal/mol in binding energy versus a hydroxyl in this position. Over 60% of this binding energy is expressed in binding of substrate to enzyme rather than toward increasing kcat. Glyphosate inhibition of shikimate turnover was poor with approximately 8 x 10(4) loss in binding capacity compared to the normal reaction, consistent with the independently measured Kd of 12 mM for the EPSPS.glyphosate binary complex. The EPSPS.glyphosate complex induces shikimate binding, however, by a factor of 7 greater than EPSPS.PEP. Carboxyallenyl phosphate and (Z)-3-fluoro-PEP were found to be strong inhibitors of the enzyme that have surprising affinity for the S3P binding domain in addition to the PEP site as measured both kinetically and by direct observation with 31P NMR. The collective data indicate that the true kinetic mechanism for EPSPS in the forward direction is random with synergistic binding occurring between substrates and inhibitors. The synergism explains how the mechanism can be random with S3P and PEP, but yet equilibrium ordered with PEP binding first for shikimate turnover. Synergism also accounts for how glyphosate can be a strong inhibitor of the normal reaction, but poor versus shikimate turnover.  相似文献

Phosphofructokinase from Escherichia coli (EcPFK) is a homotetramer with four active sites, which bind the substrates fructose-6-phosphate (Fru-6-P) and MgATP. In the presence of low concentrations of Fru-6-P, MgATP displays substrate inhibition. Previous proposals to explain this substrate inhibition have included both kinetic and allosteric mechanisms. We have isolated hybrid tetramers containing one wild type subunit and three mutated subunits (1:3). The mutated subunits contain mutations that decrease affinity for Fru-6-P (R243E) or MgATP (F76A/R77D/R82A) allowing us to systematically simplify the possible allosteric interactions between the two substrates. In the absence of a rate equation to explain the allosteric effects in a tetramer, the data have been compared to simulated data for an allosteric dimer. Since the apparent substrate inhibition caused by MgATP binding is not seen in hybrid tetramers with only a single native MgATP binding site, the proposed kinetic mechanism is not able to explain this phenomenon. The data presented are consistent with an allosteric antagonism between MgATP in one active site and Fru-6-P in a second active site.  相似文献

The steady-state kinetic mechanism for rat tyrosine hydroxylase has been determined by using recombinant enzyme expressed in insect tissue culture cells. Variation of any two of the three substrates, tyrosine, 6-methyltetrahydropterin, and oxygen, together at nonsaturating concentrations of the third gives a pattern of intersecting lines in a double-reciprocal plot. Varying tyrosine and oxygen together results in a rapid equilibrium pattern, while the other substrate pairs both fit a sequential mechanism. When tyrosine and 6-methyltetrahydropterin are varied at a fixed ratio at different oxygen concentrations, the intercept replot is linear and the slope replot is nonlinear with a zero intercept, consistent with rapid equilibrium binding of oxygen. All the replots when oxygen is varied in a fixed ratio with either tyrosine or 6-methyltetrahydropterin are nonlinear with finite intercepts. 6-Methyl-7,8-dihydropterin and norepinephrine are competitive inhibitors versus 6-methyltetrahydropterin and noncompetitive inhibitors versus tyrosine. 3-Iodotyrosine, a competitive inhibitor versus tyrosine, shows uncompetitive inhibition versus 6-methyltetrahydropterin. At high concentrations, tyrosine is a competitive inhibitor versus 6-methyltetrahydropterin. These results are consistent with an ordered kinetic mechanism with the order of binding being 6-methyltetrahydropterin, oxygen, and tyrosine and with formation of a dead-end enzyme-tyrosine complex. There is no significant primary kinetic isotope effect on the V/K values or on the Vmax value with [3,5-2H2]tyrosine as substrate. No burst of dihydroxyphenylalanine production is seen during the first turnover. These results rule out product release and carbon-hydrogen bond cleavage as rate-limiting steps.  相似文献

The specificities of cAMP-dependent and cGMP-dependent protein kinases were studied using synthetic peptides corresponding to the phosphorylation site in 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/Fru-2,6-P2ase (Murray, K.J., El-Maghrabi, M.R., Kountz, P.D., Lukas, T.J., Soderling, T.R., and Pilkis, S.J. (1984) J. Biol. Chem. 259, 7673-7681) as substrates. The peptide Val-Leu-Gln-Arg-Arg-Arg-Gly-Ser-Ser-Ile-Pro-Gln was phosphorylated by the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase on predominantly the first of its 2 seryl residues. The Km (4 microM) and Vmax (14 mumol/min/mg) values were comparable to those for the phosphorylation of this site within native 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/Fru-2,6-P2ase. An analog peptide containing only two arginines was phosphorylated with poorer kinetic constants than was the parent peptide. These results suggest that the amino acid sequence at its site of phosphorylation is a major determinant that makes 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/Fru-2,6-P2ase an excellent substrate for cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Although 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/Fru-2,6-P2ase was not phosphorylated by cGMP-dependent protein kinase, the synthetic peptide corresponding to the cAMP-dependent phosphorylation site was a relatively good substrate (Km = 33 microM, Vmax = 1 mumol/min/mg). Thus, structures other than the primary sequence at the phosphorylation site must be responsible for the inability of cGMP-dependent protein kinase to phosphorylate native 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/Fru-2,6-P2ase. Peptides containing either a -Ser-Ser- or -Thr-Ser- moiety were all phosphorylated by cGMP-dependent kinase to 1.0 mol of phosphate/mol of peptide, but the phosphate was distributed between the two hydroxyamino acids. Substitution of a proline in place of the glycine between the three arginines and these phosphorylatable amino acids caused the protein kinase selectively to phosphorylate the threonyl or first seryl residue and also enhanced the Vmax values by 4-6-fold. These results are consistent with a role for proline in allowing an adjacent threonyl residue to be readily phosphorylated by cGMP-dependent protein kinase.  相似文献

Transfer of the gamma-phosphoryl group of ATP to riboflavin is catalyzed by flavokinase, which prefers Zn(II), and is essential in the biosynthesis of the flavocoenzyme, FMN. To study the mechanism and steric disposition of ATP binding, adenosine 5'-O-(2-thiotriphosphate) (ATP beta S) and adenosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (ATP gamma S) were tested in comparison to ATP with representative divalent metal ions. Activities with 0.1 mM Zn(II) for 1 mM ATP thio analogues compared to ATP with flavokinase were 60% for the S-isomer of ATP beta S, 312% for the R-isomer of ATP beta S, and 14% for ATP gamma S. With Mg(II), flavokinase showed stereospecificity for the R-isomer of ATP beta S with a Vmax ratio, S/R = 0.125. With Cd(II), the enzyme showed preference for the S-isomer of ATP beta S with a Vmax ratio, S/R = 1.261. The Vmax ratio progressively increases from Mg(II) to Cd(II) in the order of affinity for sulfur. The ratios, (Vmax/Km)Mg/(Vmax/Km)Cd, for the diastereomers of ATP beta S were expectedly greater than 1 for one diastereomer (R = 6.597) and less than 1 for the other (S = 0.292). Activities with ATP gamma S were much lower than with ATP or ATP beta S. With Mg(II), the gamma analogue was a good substrate; however, with Cd(II), it was hardly active. Altogether these results indicate that flavokinase uses the lambda, beta, gamma-bidentate Zn.ATP as a substrate.  相似文献

Chorismate is converted by regiospecific amination/aromatization sequences to o-aminobenzoate and p-aminobenzoate (PABA) by anthranilate synthase (AS) and PABA synthase (PABS), respectively. We report here the first partial purification of the large subunit of Escherichia coli PABA synthase, previously reported to be quantitatively inactivated in purification attempts. The subunit encoded by the pabB gene was overexpressed from a T7 promoter and purified 9-fold to 25-30% homogeneity. The pabB subunit appears unusually sensitive to inactivation by glycerol so this cosolvent is contraindicated. The Km for chorismate is 42 microM in the ammonia-dependent conversion to PABA, and we estimate a turnover number of 2.6 min-1. A variety of chorismate analogues have been prepared and examined. Of these compounds, cycloheptadienyl analogue 11 has been found to be the most potent inhibitor of Serratia marcescens anthranilate synthase (Ki = 30 microM for an RS mixture) and of the E. coli pabB subunit of PABA synthase (Ki = 226 microM). Modifications in the substituents at C-3 [enolpyruyl ether, (R)- or (S)-lactyl ether, glycolyl ether] or C-4 (O-methyl) of chorismate lead to alternate substrates. The Vmax values for (R)- and (S)-lactyl ethers are down 10-20-fold for each enzyme, and V/K analyses show the (S)-lactyl chorismate analogue to be preferred by 12/1 over (R)-lactyl for anthranilate synthase while a 3/1 preference was observed for (R)-/(S)-lactyl analogues by PABA synthase. The glycolyl ether analogue of chorismate shows 15% Vmax vs. chorismate for anthranilate synthase but is actually a faster substrate (140%) than chorismate with PABA synthase, suggesting the elimination/aromatization step from an aminocyclohexadienyl species may be rate limiting with AS but not with PABS. Indeed, studies with (R)-lactyl analogue 14 and anthranilate synthase led to accumulation of an intermediate, isolable by high-performance liquid chromatography and characterized by NMR and UV-visible spectroscopy as 6-amino-5-[(1-carboxyethyl)oxy]-1,3-cyclohexadiene-1-carboxylic acid (17). This is the anticipated intermediate predicted by our previous work with conversion of synthetic trans-6-amino-5-[(1-carboxyethenyl)oxy]-1,3-cyclohexadiene-1-carbo xylic acid (2) to anthranilate by the enzyme. Compound 17 is quantitatively converted to anthranilate on reincubation with enzyme, but at a 1.3-10-fold lower Vmax than starting lactyl substrate 14 under the conditions investigated; the basis for this kinetic variation is not yet determined.  相似文献

The two-domain taurocyamine kinase (TK) from Paragonimus westermani was suggested to have a unique substrate binding mechanism. We performed site-directed mutagenesis on each domain of this TK and compared the kinetic parameters KmTc and Vmax with that of the wild-type to determine putative amino acids involved in substrate recognition and binding. Replacement of Y84 on domain 1 and Y87 on domain 2 with R resulted in the loss of activity for the substrate taurocyamine. Y84E mutant has a dramatic decrease in affinity and activity for taurocyamine while Y87E has completely lost catalytic activity. Substituting H and I on the said positions also resulted in significant changes in activity. Mutation of the residues A59 on the GS region of domain 1 also caused significant decrease in affinity and activity while mutation on the equivalent position on domain 2 resulted in complete loss of activity.  相似文献

Purified adenosine kinase from L1210 cells displayed substrate inhibition by high concentrations of adenosine (Ado), ATP, and MgCl2. When incubated with ATP and MgCl2, the enzyme was phosphorylated, and the phosphorylated kinase transferred phosphate to adenosine in the absence of ATP and MgCl2. Substrate binding, isotope exchange, and kinetic studies suggested that the enzyme catalyzes the reaction by means of a two-site ping-pong mechanism with the phosphorylated enzyme as an obligatory intermediate. Among many possible pathways within this mechanism probably a random-bi ordered-bi route is the preferred sequence in which the two substrates, adenosine and MgATP, bind in a random order to form the ternary complex MgATP . E . Ado followed by the sequential dissociation of MgADP and AMP. Dissociation constants of various enzyme-substrate and enzyme-product complexes and the first-order rate constant of the rate-limiting step were estimated.  相似文献

A number of phosphorylated aminosugars have been prepared and tested as substrates for metabolic reactions. 6-Aminoglucose is a slow substrate for yeast hexokinase with a Vmax that is only 0.012% that for glucose. While Vmax is pH independent, V/K decreases below the pK of 9.0 of the amino group. 6-Aminoglucose is a competitive inhibitor vs glucose with a Ki value increasing below the pK of 9 but leveling off at 33 mM below pH 7.16. Thus, protonation decreases binding affinity by 2.4 kcal/mol and only the neutral amine is catalytically competent. 6-Aminoglucose-6-P was synthesized enzymatically with hexokinase. Its pK's determined by 31P NMR were 2.46 and 8.02 (alpha anomer) and 2.34 and 7.85 (beta anomer), with a beta:alpha ratio of 3.0. It is most stable at pH 12 (half-life 228 h at 22 degrees C), while as a monoanion its half-life is 3 h. The free energy of hydrolysis at 25 degrees C and pH 9.25 is -10.3 kcal/mol. The phosphorylated amino analogues of 6-P-gluconate, ribulose-5-P, fructose-6-P, fructose-1,6-bis-P (amino group at C-6 only), and glyceraldehyde-3-P were synthesized enzymatically. The 31P NMR chemical shifts of these analogues are 8-8.5 ppm at pH 9.5. Their relative stability is 6-aminogluconate-6-P greater than 3-aminoglyceraldehyde-3-P greater than 6-aminoglucose-6-P greater than 6-aminofructose-1,6-bis-P congruent to 6-aminofructose-6-P greater than 5-aminoribulose-5-P. These analogues were tested as substrates for their respective enzymes.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Halohydrin dehalogenase (HheC) from Agrobacterium radiobacter AD1 catalyzes the reversible intramolecular nucleophilic displacement of a halogen by a hydroxyl group in vicinal haloalcohols, producing the corresponding epoxides. The enzyme displays high enantioselectivity toward some aromatic halohydrins. To understand the kinetic mechanism and enantioselectivity of the enzyme, steady-state and pre-steady-state kinetic analysis was performed with p-nitro-2-bromo-1-phenylethanol (PNSHH) as a model substrate. Steady-state kinetic analyses indicated that the k(cat) of the enzyme with the (R)-enantiomer (22 s(-1)) is 3-fold higher than with the (S)-enantiomer and that the K(m) for the (R)-enantiomer (0.009 mM) is about 45-fold lower than that for the (S)-enantiomer, resulting in a high enantiopreference for the (R)-enantiomer. Product inhibition studies revealed that HheC follows an ordered Uni Bi mechanism for both enantiomers, with halide as the first product to be released. To identify the rate-limiting step in the catalytic cycle, pre-steady-state experiments were performed using stopped-flow and rapid-quench methods. The results revealed the existence of a pre-steady-state burst phase during conversion of (R)-PNSHH, whereas no such burst was observed with the (S)-enantiomer. This indicates that a product release step is rate-limiting for the (R)-enantiomer but not for the (S)-enantiomer. This was further examined by doing single-turnover experiments, which revealed that during conversion of the (R)-enantiomer the rate of bromide release is 21 s(-1). Furthermore, multiple turnover analyses showed that the binding of (R)-PNSHH is a rapid equilibrium step and that the rate of formation of product ternary complex is 380 s(-1). Taken together, these findings enabled the formulation of an ordered Uni Bi kinetic mechanism for the conversion of (R)-PNSHH by HheC in which all of the rate constants are obtained. The high enantiopreference for the (R)-enantiomer can be explained by weak substrate binding of the (S)-enantiomer and a lower rate of reaction at the active site.  相似文献
