Orotidine-5'-monophosphate decarboxylase (OD-Case) catalyzes the conversion of orotidine 5'-monophosphate to UMP. In mammals, ODCase is present as part of a bifunctional protein which also contains orotate phosphoribosyltransferase; the preceding enzyme in the de novo UMP biosynthetic pathway. We have isolated a plasmid (pMEJ) which contains a cDNA for the ODCase domain of UMP synthase. Insertion of this sequence into an Escherichia coli expression vector (pUC12) has allowed for the expression of ODCase and not orotate phosphoribosyltransferase in E. coli. The molecular weight of the expressed protein is 26,000-27,300 from immunoblot analysis which corresponds closely to the molecular weight of the ODCase domain (28,500) isolated by tryptic digestion of UMP synthase. We have sequenced the cDNA insert of pMEJ and deduced the amino acid sequence. The molecular weight of the ODCase domain calculated from the amino acid sequence in 28,654. Comparison of the deduced amino acid sequence from pMEJ with that for yeast ODCase (a monofunctional protein) demonstrated that 52% of the amino acids were identical when the two sequences are compared. Furthermore, several stretches of the amino acid sequence have 80% or greater absolute homology.  相似文献

In mammals, the bifunctional protein UMP synthase contains the final two enzymatic activities, orotate phosphoribosyltransferase and orotidine-5'-monophosphate decarboxylase (ODCase), for de novo biosynthesis of UMP. The plasmid pMEJ contains a cDNA for the ODCase domain of mouse Ehrlich ascites UMP synthase. The cDNA from pMEJ was joined to the Saccharomyces cerevisiae iso-1-cytochrome c (CYC1) promoter and the first four CYC1 coding nucleotides in the plasmid pODCcyc. ODCase-deficient yeast cells (HF200x1) transformed with pODCcyc expressed an active ODCase domain with a specific activity of 20 nmol/min/mg in cell extracts. The expressed ODCase domain has a lower affinity for the substrate orotidine 5'-monophosphate and the inhibitor 6-azauridine 5'-monophosphate than intact UMP synthase or an ODCase domain isolated after proteolysis of homogenous UMP synthase. Sucrose density gradient sedimentation experiments showed that the expressed ODCase domain forms a dimer in the presence of ligands which bind at the catalytic site. These studies support the existence of an ODCase structural domain which contains the ODCase catalytic site and a dimerization surface of UMP synthase, but the domain may not have the regulatory site required to form the altered dimer form.  相似文献

Orotidine 5'-monophosphate decarboxylase (ODCase) has been overexpressed in yeast 15C cells transformed with a plasmid carrying the URA3 gene that encodes ODCase. Twenty g of cells having ODCase activity equal to 30 mg of pure enzyme per liter of cell culture were obtained after 9 h of galactose induction. To remove yeast proteases, a 60-90% ammonium sulfate fractionation step plus the addition of EDTA as an inhibitor of metallopeptidases was necessary. The purification protocol yielded ODCase that was protease-free and stable to storage at 4 degrees C for 16 months. The pure enzyme had a specific activity of 40 units/mg in 50 mM phosphate buffer, pH 6, and could be stored at -20 degrees C in 20% glycerol with retention of full activity for more than 2 years. The enzyme had a Km for orotidine 5'-monophosphate of 0.7 microM at pH 6 and 25 degrees C. The molecular weight of the plasmid-derived ODCase monomer determined by electrophoresis on denaturing polyacrylamide gels was 29,500. ODCase sedimented through sucrose density gradients as a monomer of about 30 kDa at low protein concentration and in the absence of ligands that bind at the catalytic site. An increase in the sedimentation rate could be induced by increasing the ODCase concentration or by adding ligands that are competitive inhibitors. ODCase sedimented in a single band typical of a protein of 46 kDa at the highest protein concentration studied or in the presence of 50 mM phosphate or 933 microM substrate (orotidine 5'-monophosphate) or product (UMP). A dimer sedimenting as a protein of about 64 kDa occurred in the presence of 50 microM 6-azauridine 5'-monophosphate or 2 microM 1-(5'-phospho-beta-D-ribofuranosyl) barbituric acid, competitive inhibitors of ODCase. These results resemble the ligand-induced subunit association of the ODCase domain of bifunctional UMP synthase and support the use of yeast ODCase as a model for ODCases from other species.  相似文献

Using an incomplete factorial experimental design, we have identified conditions for crystallization of yeast orotidine 5'-monophosphate decarboxylase (ODCase) in an unliganded state and complexed separately to two inhibitors: 6-azauridine 5'-monophosphate (aza-UMP) and 1-(5'-phospho-beta-D-ribofuranosyl) barbituric acid (BMP). Crystals of X-ray diffraction quality have been obtained of yeast ODCase complexed with BMP, a putative transition state analog inhibitor (Ki = 8.8 x 10(-12) M). ODCase:BMP complex crystals with a hexagonal rod habit were grown from a solution initially containing 12 mg/ml ODCase (205 microM dimer) plus 450 microM BMP by microdialysis at 4 degrees C against a mother liquor which consisted of 0.1 M Na-PIPES-acetate (pH 6.4), 37.5 microM BMP, 5 mM mercaptoethanol, 1% polyethylene glycol 400, and 2.3 M ammonium sulfate. Crystals were analyzed using precession photography and were assigned to trigonal space group R32 with unit cell dimensions a = b = 115 A, c = 385 A. The crystal density is 1.245 g/cm3 indicating the presence of two ODCase: BMP complex dimers (118 kDa each) per asymmetric unit with a packing density of 2.08 A3/Da and 41% solvent content. The morphological habit of crystals of the ODCase:BMP complex changed when the initial ammonium sulfate concentration was increased in 0.05 M steps from 2.3 to 2.45 M. All of these crystals diffracted to at least 3.0 A resolution over a period of several weeks at room temperature and are isomorphous.  相似文献

A novel nonradioactive, microassay method has been developed to determine simultaneously the two enzymatic activities of orotate phosphoribosyltransferase (OPRTase) and orotidine 5'-monophosphate decarboxylase (ODCase), either as a bifunctional protein (uridine 5'-monophosphate synthase, UMPS) or as separate enzymes. Substrates (orotate for OPRTase or orotidine 5'-monophosphate for ODCase) and a product (UMP) of the enzymatic assay were separated by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) using a reversed-phase column and an ion-pairing system; the amount of UMP was quantified by dual-wavelength uv detection at 260 and 278 nm. This HPLC assay can easily detect picomole levels of UMP in enzymatic reactions using low specific activity UMPS of mammalian cell extracts, which is difficult to do with the other nonradioactive assays that have been described. The HPLC assay is suitable for use in protein purification and for kinetic study of these enzymes.  相似文献

Orotidine 5'-monophosphate decarboxylase (ODCase) catalyzes the decarboxylation of orotidine 5'-monophosphate, the last step in the de novo synthesis of uridine 5'-monophosphate. ODCase is a very proficient enzyme [Radzicka, A., and Wolfenden, R. (1995) Science 267, 90-93], enhancing the reaction rate by a factor of 10(17). This proficiency has been enigmatic, since it is achieved without metal ions or cofactors. Here we present a 2.5 A resolution structure of ODCase complexed with the inhibitor 1-(5'-phospho-beta-D-ribofuranosyl)barbituric acid. It shows a closely packed dimer composed of two alpha/beta-barrels with two shared active sites. The orientation of the orotate moiety of the substrate is unambiguously deduced from the structure, and previously proposed catalytic mechanisms involving protonation of O2 or O4 can be ruled out. The proximity of the OMP carboxylate group with Asp71 appears to be instrumental for the decarboxylation of OMP, either through charge repulsion or through the formation of a very short O.H.O hydrogen bond between the two carboxylate groups.  相似文献

A chromophorics and fluorescent analog of uridine 5'-monophosphate (UMP), a known competitive inhibitor of UDPglucose 4-epimerase was synthesised. This analog, namely 2',3'-O-(2,4,6-trinitrocyclohexadienylidene) uridine 5'-monophosphate, was found to be a powerful reversible inhibitor of UDPglucose 4-epimerase indicating its interaction with the substrate binding site of the enzyme. The extreme sensitivity of the fluorescence emission spectrum of this analog to solvent polarity makes it an excellent probe for the study of the environment at the active site of the enzyme. We report here the effective use of this UMP analog to demonstrate that the hydroxyl groups of the ribose moiety of UMP and presumably the substrates (UDPgalactose and UDPglucose) do not reside in a hydrophobic milieu.  相似文献

The second order rate constant (k(cat)/K(m)) for decarboxylation of orotidine by yeast OMP decarboxylase (ODCase), measured by trapping (14)CO(2) released during the reaction, is 2 x 10(-4)M(-1)s(-1). This very low activity may be compared with a value of 3 x 10(7)M(-1)s(-1) for the action of yeast OMP decarboxylase on the normal substrate OMP. Both activities are strongly inhibited by 6-hydroxy UMP (BMP), and abrogated by mutation of Asp-96 to alanine. These results, in conjunction with the binding affinity of inorganic phosphate as a competitive inhibitor (K(i)=7 x 10(-4)M), imply an effective concentration of 1.1 x 10(9)M for the substrate phosphoryl group in stabilizing the transition state for enzymatic decarboxylation of OMP. The observed difference in rate (1.5 x 10(11)-fold) is the largest effect of a simple substituent that appears to have been reported for an enzyme reaction.  相似文献

The crystal structures of the enzyme orotidine-5'-monophosphate decarboxylase from Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum complexed with its product UMP and the inhibitors 6-hydroxyuridine 5'-phosphate (BMP), XMP, and CMP are reported. A mutant version of the protein, in which four residues of the flexible phosphate-binding loop (180)Gly-Gly(190) were removed and Arg(203) was replaced by alanine, was also analyzed. The XMP and CMP complexes reveal a ligand-binding mode that is distinct from the one identified previously with the aromatic rings located outside the binding pocket. A potential pathway for ligand binding is discussed.  相似文献

The final two steps of de novo uridine 5'-monophosphate (UMP) biosynthesis are catalyzed by orotate phosphoribosyltransferase (OPRT) and orotidine 5'-monophosphate decarboxylase (OMPDC). In most prokaryotes and simple eukaryotes these two enzymes are encoded by separate genes, whereas in mammals they are expressed as a bifunctional gene product called UMP synthase (UMPS), with OPRT at the N terminus and OMPDC at the C terminus. Leishmania and some closely related organisms also express a bifunctional enzyme for these two steps, but the domain order is reversed relative to mammalian UMPS. In this work we demonstrate that L. donovani UMPS (LdUMPS) is an essential enzyme in promastigotes and that it is sequestered in the parasite glycosome. We also present the crystal structure of the LdUMPS in complex with its product, UMP. This structure reveals an unusual tetramer with two head to head and two tail to tail interactions, resulting in two dimeric OMPDC and two dimeric OPRT functional domains. In addition, we provide structural and biochemical evidence that oligomerization of LdUMPS is controlled by product binding at the OPRT active site. We propose a model for the assembly of the catalytically relevant LdUMPS tetramer and discuss the implications for the structure of mammalian UMPS.  相似文献

The binding of ornithine and inosine 5'-monophosphate (IMP), positive allosteric effectors, and of uridine 5'-monophosphate (UMP), a negative allosteric effector, to carbamyl-phosphate synthetase from Escherichia coli was studied by the technique of equilibrium dialysis. The monomeric form of the enzyme has one binding site for each of the three allosteric ligands. The binding of UMP is inhibited by ornithine, IMP, MgATP, and ammonia (also a positive allosteric effector). Bicarbonate, L-glutamine, and adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) (Mg2+ absent) had no effect on the binding of UMP. The affinity of the enzyme for UMP was increased if phosphate buffer was replaced by 2-amino-2-hydroxymethyl-1,3-propanediol (Tris) buffer. The binding of ornithine was inhibited by UMP and ammonia, enhanced by MgATP, MgADP, and IMP, and not affected by bicarbonate, L-glutamine, or ATP (Mg2+ absent). Ornithine and ammonia probably bind to the same site on the enzyme. The binding of IMP is facilitated by ornithine and ammonia, but is inhibited by MgATP or ATP, indicating that adenine nucleotides can also bind to the IMP binding site. The results of these binding studies are consistent with a scheme previously proposed in which the allosteric effectors function by stabilizing one or the other of two different conformational states of the enzyme which are in equilibrium with each other (Anderson, P.M., and Marvin, S.V. (1970), Biochemistry 9, 171). According to this scheme, binding of the substrate MgATP is greatly facilitated when the enzyme exists in the conformational state stabilized by the positive allosteric effectors.  相似文献

Orotidine 5'-monophosphate decarboxylase (ODCase) catalyzes the decarboxylation of orotidine 5'-monophosphate to uridine 5'-monophosphate during pyrimidine nucleotide biosynthesis. This enzyme is one of the most proficient known, exhibiting a rate enhancement of over 17 orders of magnitude over the uncatalyzed rate. An interesting question is whether the high proficiency of ODCase is associated with a highly optimized sequence of active site residues. This question was addressed by randomizing 24 residue positions in and around the active site of the E. coli ODCase (pyrF) by site-directed mutagenesis. The libraries of mutants were selected for function from a multicopy plasmid or by single-copy replacement at the pyrF locus on the E. coli chromosome. Stringent sequence requirements for function were found for the mutants expressed from the chromosomal pyrF locus. Six positions were not tolerant of substitutions and several others accepted very limited substitutions. In contrast, all positions could be substituted to some extent when the library mutants were expressed from a multicopy plasmid. For the conserved quartet of charged residues Lys44-Asp71-Lys73-Asp76, a cysteine substitution was found to provide function at positions 71 and 76. A lower pK(a) for both cysteine mutants supports a mechanism whereby the thiolate group of cysteine substitutes for the negatively charged aspartate side chain. The partial function mutants such as D71C and D76C exhibit reduced catalytic efficiency relative to wild type but nevertheless provide a rate enhancement of 15 orders of magnitude over the uncatalyzed rate indicating the catalytic proficiency of the enzyme is robust and tolerant of mutation.  相似文献

The multifunctional protein uridine 5'-monophosphate (UMP) synthase catalyzes the final two reactions of the de novo biosynthesis of UMP in mammalian cells by the sequential action of orotate phosphoribosyltransferase (EC 2.4.2.10) and orotidine 5'-monophosphate (OMP) decarboxylase (EC 4.1.1.23). This protein is composed of one or two identical subunits; the monomer weighs of 51,500 daltons. UMP synthase from mouse Ehrlich ascites cells can exist as three distinct species as determined by sucrose density gradient centrifugation: a 3.6 S monomer, a 5.1 S dimer, and a 5.6 S conformationally altered dimer. Limited digestion of each of these three species with trypsin produced a 28,500-dalton peptide that was relatively resistant to further proteolysis. The peptide appears to be one of the two enzyme domains of UMP synthase for it retained only OMP decarboxylase activity. Similar results were obtained when UMP synthase was digested with elastase. OMP decarboxylase activity was less stable for the domain than for UMP synthase; the domain can rapidly lose activity upon storage or upon dilution. The size of the mammalian OMP decarboxylase domain is similar to that of yeast OMP decarboxylase. If the polypeptides which are cleaved from UMP synthase by trypsin are derived exclusively from either the amino or the carboxyl end of UMP synthase, then the size of a fragment possessing the orotate phosphoribosyltransferase domain could be as large as 23,000 daltons which is similar in size to the orotate phosphoribosyltransferase of yeast and of Escherichia coli.  相似文献

The presence of a proton-donating catalytic amino acid side chain in orotidylate decarboxylase (ODCase) was sought by site-directed mutagenesis. Replacement of yeast ODCase Lys93 with a cysteine resulted in a mutant protein (K93C) with no measurable activity, representing a decrease in activity by a factor of, at most, 2 x 10(-8) times the activity of the wild-type enzyme. Treatment of this mutant protein with 2-bromoethylamine, designed to append Cys93 to yield S-(2-aminoethyl)cysteine, restored activity by a factor of at least 5 x 10(5) over the untreated mutant protein. Activity could not be restored by treatment with other brominated reagents designed to replace the epsilon-amino of S-(2-aminoethyl)Cys93 with a different functional group. The overall architecture of the K93C protein was not significantly changed, as judged by the similar dimerization properties (in the absence of ligands) of the mutant enzyme compared to the wild-type enzyme. The binding affinity of the substrate orotidylate was not measurably changed by the mutation, indicating that Lys93 has an essential role in catalysis which is mechanistically distinguishable from substrate binding. Apparently the mutation removes an integral portion of the active site and does not drastically affect the structural or substrate binding properties. However, the affinities of the mutant protein for the competitive inhibitors 6-azauridylate (6-azaUMP) and UMP are significantly altered from the pattern seen with the wild-type enzyme. The K93C protein has an affinity for the neutral ligand UMP which is greater than that for the anionic 6-azaUMP, in clear contrast to the preference for 6-azaUMP displayed by the wild-type enzyme. Lys93 is apparently critical for catalysis of the substrate to product and for the binding of anionic inhibitors; the data are discussed in terms of previously existing models for transition-state analogue inhibitor binding and catalysis.  相似文献

Orotidine 5′-monophosphate decarboxylase (ODCase) accelerates the decarboxylation of its substrate by 17 orders of magnitude. One argument brought forward against steric/electrostatic repulsion causing substrate distortion at the carboxylate substituent as part of the catalysis has been the weak binding affinity of the decarboxylated product (UMP). The crystal structure of the UMP complex of ODCase at atomic resolution (1.03 Å) shows steric competition between the product UMP and the side chain of a catalytic lysine residue. Surface plasmon resonance analysis indicates that UMP binds 5 orders of magnitude more tightly to a mutant in which the interfering side chain has been removed than to wild-type ODCase. These results explain the low affinity of UMP and counter a seemingly very strong argument against a contribution of substrate distortion to the catalytic reaction mechanism of ODCase.  相似文献

Orotidine 5'-monophosphate decarboxylase (OMP decarboxylase, ODCase) is an important enzyme that catalyzes the final step of de novo pyrimidine nucleotide biosynthesis. The mechanism of this unique enzyme and whether metal ions play any role in catalysis have been topics of intense research interest. In this report, the role of Zn in ODCase was reexamined. Atomic absorption (AA) and X-ray absorption (XAS) spectroscopic studies did not detect zinc in active enzyme samples at high concentration. The XAS results also indicated the absence of other transition metal ions in ODCase.  相似文献

Orotidine 5'-monophosphate decarboxylase from Plasmodium falciparum (PfOMPDC) catalyses the final step in the de novo synthesis of uridine 5'-monophosphate (UMP) from orotidine 5'-monophosphate (OMP). A defective PfOMPDC enzyme is lethal to the parasite. Novel in silico screening methods were performed to select 14 inhibitors against PfOMPDC, with a high hit rate of 9%. X-ray structure analysis of PfOMPDC in complex with one of the inhibitors, 4-(2-hydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl)-4-oxobutanoic acid, was carried out to at 2.1 ? resolution. The crystal structure revealed that the inhibitor molecule occupied a part of the active site that overlaps with the phosphate-binding region in the OMP- or UMP-bound complexes. Space occupied by the pyrimidine and ribose rings of OMP or UMP was not occupied by this inhibitor. The carboxyl group of the inhibitor caused a dramatic movement of the L1 and L2 loops that play a role in the recognition of the substrate and product molecules. Combining part of the inhibitor molecule with moieties of the pyrimidine and ribose rings of OMP and UMP represents a suitable avenue for further development of anti-malarial drugs.  相似文献

Stable variants resistant to pyrazofurin (PF) and 6-azauridine (AZUrd) were serially selected in increasing drug concentrations from an MC3T3-E1 nontumorigenic murine osteoblastic cell line. Monophosphates of both AZUrd and PF competitively inhibit orotidine-5'-monophosphate decarboxylase (ODCase) activity of the UMP synthase multifunctional enzyme. When compared to the wild type cells, the AZUrdr and PFr lines were 3000- and 10,000-fold more resistant, respectively. Flow cytometry indicated tetraploidy in wild type cells and a reduction of DNA content in both resistant cell lines. DNA dot blot analysis showed no amplification of the gene coding for UMP synthase in either AZUrdr or PFr cells. Measurements of UMP synthase showed a 6-fold higher activity in AZUrdr cells and no significant difference in PFr cells as compared to wild type. Sensitivity to 5-fluorouracil was increased in the AZUrdr line as opposed to PFr and normal cell lines, indicating an increased orotate phosphoribosyltransferase activity in the AZUrdr cells. In comparison to wild type cells, PFr cells were 100-fold resistant to 6-methylmercaptopurine riboside, suggesting a lack of adenosine kinase activity. The control and AZUrdr cells showed equal sensitivity to 5-fluorouridine, thus indicating unchanged uridine kinase levels. While PFr cells were not cross-resistant to AZUrd, the AZUrdr cells were cross-resistant to PF. These results indicate the possibility of an altered ODCase active site. Although amplification of unrelated sequences cannot be excluded, our findings show that bone tetraploid, nontumorigenic cells acquire drug resistance through mechanisms other than the amplification of a target gene and that this resistance is accompanied by the partial loss of a chromosomal complement.  相似文献

Uracil phosphoribosyltransferase (UPRTase) catalyzes the conversion of 5-phosphate-alpha-1-diphosphate (PRPP) and uracil to uridine 5'-monophosphate (UMP) and diphosphate. The UPRTase from Sulfolobus solfataricus has a unique regulation by nucleoside triphosphates compared to UPRTases from other organisms. To understand the allosteric regulation, crystal structures were determined for S. solfataricus UPRTase in complex with UMP and with UMP and the allosteric inhibitor CTP. Also, a structure with UMP bound in half of the active sites was determined. All three complexes form tetramers but reveal differences in the subunits and their relative arrangement. In the UPRTase-UMP complex, the peptide bond between a conserved arginine residue (Arg80) and the preceding residue (Leu79) adopts a cis conformation in half of the subunits and a trans conformation in the other half and the tetramer comprises two cis-trans dimers. In contrast, four identical subunits compose the UPRTase-UMP-CTP tetramer. CTP binding affects the conformation of Arg80, and the Arg80 conformation in the UPRTase-UMP-CTP complex leaves no room for binding of the substrate PRPP. The different conformations of Arg80 coupled to rearrangements in the quaternary structure imply that this residue plays a major role in regulation of the enzyme and in communication between subunits. The ribose ring of UMP adopts alternative conformations in the cis and trans subunits of the UPRTase-UMP tetramer with associated differences in the interactions of the catalytically important Asp209. The active-site differences have been related to proposed kinetic models and provide an explanation for the regulatory significance of the C-terminal Gly216.  相似文献

The crystal structure of yeast orotidine 5'-monophosphate decarboxylase (ODCase) complexed with the inhibitor 6-hydroxyuridine 5'-phosphate (BMP) reveals the presence of a series of strong interactions between enzyme residues and functional groups of this ligand. Enzyme contacts with the phosphoribofuranosyl moiety of orotidine 5'-phosphate (OMP) have been shown to contribute at least 16.6 kcal/mol of intrinsic binding free energy to the stabilization of the transition state for the reaction catalyzed by yeast ODCase. In addition to these enzyme-ligand contacts, active site residues contributed by both subunits of the dimeric enzyme are positioned to form hydrogen bonds with the 2'- and 3'-OH groups of the ligand's ribosyl moiety. These involve Thr-100 of one subunit and Asp-37 of the opposite subunit, respectively. To evaluate the contributions of these ribofuranosyl contacts to ground state and transition state stabilization, Thr-100 and Asp-37 were each mutated to alanine. Elimination of the enzyme's capacity to contact individual ribosyl OH groups reduced the k(cat)/K(m) value of the T100A enzyme by 60-fold and that of the D37A enzyme by 300-fold. Removal of the 2'-OH group from the substrate OMP decreased the binding affinity by less than a factor of 10, but decreased k(cat) by more that 2 orders of magnitude. Upon removal of the complementary hydroxymethyl group from the enzyme, little further reduction in k(cat)/K(m) for 2'-deoxyOMP was observed. To assess the contribution made by contacts involving both ribosyl hydroxyl groups at once, the ability of the D37A mutant enzyme to decarboxylate 2'-deoxyOMP was measured. The value of k(cat)/K(m) for this enzyme-substrate pair was 170 M(-1) s(-1), representing a decrease of more than 7.6 kcal/mol of binding free energy in the transition state. To the extent that electrostatic repulsion in the ground state can be tested by these simple alterations, the results do not lend obvious support to the view that electrostatic destabilization in the ground state enzyme-substrate complex plays a major role in catalysis.  相似文献
