Spectrophotometric titrations of yeast apoenolase with magnesium, the metal that produces the highest level of activity, nickel, which produces a very low level, and calcium, which produces no activity, suggest strong binding of 2 mol (1 per subunit) of all three metals at the same sites, called “conformational” sites. About two-thirds of the possible absorbance change in the chromophoric competitive inhibitor 3-aminoenolpyruvate-2-phosphate (AEP) that occurs when it binds to the enzyme in the presence of saturating levels of magnesium is produced when just 2 mol (1 per subunit) of magnesium is added. Since additional “catalytic” metal won't bind unless the AEP does, and the AEP won't bind unless the “conformational” sites are filled with metal, much of the absorbance change in the AEP must be produced by conformational metal.Metals that do not produce enzymatic activity do not produce the absorbance change in AEP whereas metals that permit any level of enzymatic activity produce the same absorbance change that magnesium does-the reaction is “all or none.” Studies of the effect of calcium, nickel, and magnesium on the CD spectrum of apoenzyme-AEP solutions suggest that activating metals produce an asymmetric chromophore in the AEP. This is interprested as indicating the chromophore in AEP bound to enzyme in the presence of an activating metal is a twisted carbon-carbon double bond.Calorimetric studies show the competitive inhibitor 3-phosphoglycerate binds to the calcium- and magnesium-enzyme with about the same change in enthalpy. The substrate or AEP reduces the rate of the apparent reaction of the calcium- or magnesium-enzyme with excess EDTA, suggesting that both substrate and AEP bind to the calcium-enzyme. The interpretation of these data is that the conformational metal plays a crucial role in activating the substrate while the catalytic metal controls the reaction rate. This interpretation is supported by experiments in which an enzyme with one type of conformational metal is reacted in the stopped-flow with catalytic metal and substrate. If an activating metal is the conformational metal, the initial activity is greater. 相似文献

Endonuclease I of bacteriophage T7 is a DNA junction-resolving enzyme. We have previously used crystallography to demonstrate the binding of two manganese ions into the active site that is formed by three carboxylate (Glu 20, Asp 55 and Glu 65) and a lysine residue (Lys 67). Endonuclease I is active in the presence of magnesium, manganese, iron (II) and cobalt (II) ions, weakly active in the presence of nickel, copper (II) and zinc ions, and completely inactive in the presence of calcium ions. However, using calorimetry, we have observed the binding of two calcium ions to the free enzyme in a manner very similar to the binding of manganese ions. In the presence of iron (II) ions, we have obtained a cleavage of the continuous strands of a junction bound by endonuclease I, at sites close to (but not identical with) enzyme-induced hydrolysis. The results suggest that this arises from attack by locally generated hydroxyl radicals, arising from iron (II) ions bound into the active site. This therefore provides an indirect way of examining metal ion binding in the enzyme-junction complex. Ion binding in free protein (by calorimetry) and the enzyme-junction complex (iron-induced cleavage) have been studied in series of active-site mutants. Both confirm the importance of the three carboxylate ligands, and the lack of a requirement for Lys67 for the ion binding. Calorimetry points to particularly critical role of Asp55, as mutation completely abolishes all binding of both manganese and calcium ions. 相似文献

Although the binding of bivalent metal-ion activators to phosphoglucomutase produces substantial changes in the near ultraviolet spectrum of the enzyme, the extent to which aromatic residues are exposed to the aqueous environment, as assessed by means of solvent perturbation spectroscopy (using D2O), does not appear to be significantly altered by the binding process. Other ways in which the spectral effects induced by activation might arise are considered by making comparisons with those changes induced by various nonactivating monovalent and bivalent cations. The observed differences are most easily interpreted in terms of an electrostatic perturbation of (at least) two different tryptophan residues. This interpretation is supported by using cationic vs, neutral (zwitterionic) tryptophan in various solvent systems to generate difference spectra that are similar either to the observed metal-ion induced spectral differences or to the differences in the spectral changes produced by various pairs of metal ions. Although a rationale for the striking similarity in the spectral changes produced by Mg2+ and by Li+ (which elicits less than 2 X 10(-8) of the enzymic activity induced by Mg2+) cannot be ascribed to a simple electrostatic effect, alone, the involvement of an additional, negatively charged group in the binding of Mg2+ (but not Li+) could reduce the effective charge of bound Mg2+ to a value close to that of bound Li+. 相似文献

Measurements of binding of certain divalent cations to yeast apoenolase were made using a pH-meter, chromatography, a divalent cation electrode, and ultrafiltration. The binding of the activating metal ions Mg2+ and Co2+ and the nonactivator Ca2+ were studied as functions of the presence or absence of substrate/product, phosphate, and fluoride or level of Tb3+. The data suggest phosphate and fluoride increase Mg2+ binding but not Ca2+ binding. Substrate/product appears to increase Ca2+ binding as well as that of Mg2+ and Co2+. In the presence of substrate, Co2+ binding was 5-6 mol/mol dimer. In the absence of substrate/product, Tb3+ reduced Co2+ binding from 4 mol/mol to 2. These data are interpreted in terms of binding to "conformational," "catalytic" (substrate/product dependent), and "inhibitory" sites. Measurements of Tb3+ fluorescence quenching by Co2+ suggested that the distance between "conformational" sites on the two subunits was large, while the distance between "conformational" and "inhibitory" sites was ca. 17 +/- 4 A. Potentiometric titrations of apoenzyme with Ca2+ and Mg2+ showed that the metal ions produced the same proton release in the presence or absence of substrate/product. If phosphate and fluoride were present, then more protons were released if Ca2+ was the titrant rather than Mg2+, suggesting a difference in ionization state in the complex with the activating metal. Electron paramagnetic resonance studies of Co2+ binding to the various sites in the enzyme are presented. The Co2+ bound to all three sites appears to be high spin, consistent with a preponderance of oxyligands in an octahedral environment. Substrate, citrate, and a strongly binding substrate analogue strongly enhance the hyperfine structure of conformational Co2+. This is interpreted as the result of a change in interaction of an axial ligand to conformational Co2+ produced by carbon-3 of substrate or analogue. 相似文献

At low pH, EDTA promotes the loss of the tightly bound nickel ions from jack bean urease. The specific activity of soluble enzyme after partial EDTA-promoted inactivation is a linear function of the nickel content. The results are consistent with the presence of 2.0 nickel ions per 97 000-dalton subunit in pure urease. The time scale for loss of enzymatic activity and nickel under these conditions is similar to that for loss of the "abnormal" tail absorption in the ultraviolet and visible absorption spectrum of urease (including the shoulder at approximately 420 nm). This indicates that nickel in urease is essential for enzymatic activity and establishes that the metal ions are in part responsible for the tail absorption in the ultraviolet spectrum of urease. After partial inactivation in the presence of EDTA either at low pH or in 2.5 M guanidinium chloride at neutral pH, urease did not regain activity in the presence of Ni2+. As yet apourease has not been produced reversibly. Jack bean seeds grown hydroponically without added nickel were low in both urease activity and nickel (10 and 6%, respectively, of parent seeds). Several other metal ions were readily available. This result suggests that metal ions other than nickel cannot substitute for nickel in the formation of normally active urease. 相似文献

The activation of yeast enolase by cobaltous ion in 0.1 M KCl is characterized by an activation constant of 1 microM and an inhibition constant of 18 microM. Measurements of binding of Co2+ to the apoenzyme show that a maximum of four Co2+ ions are bound per dimer in the presence or absence of substrate although binding is far tighter in the presence of substrate. Ultraviolet spectral titrations show evidence for a conformational change due exclusively to the binding of the first two ions of Co2+. Both visible and EPR spectra confirm that the environment of the first pair of cobalt ions ("conformational sites") is markedly different from that of the second pair in the "catalytic" sites. Cobalt at the conformational site appears to be a tetragonally distorted octahedral complex while the second pair of metal ions appears to be in a more regular tetrahedral symmetry. Addition of either Mg2+ or substrate to the enzyme with only one pair of cobalt ions per dimer causes striking changes in the metal ion environment. The conformational metal sites appear sufficiently shielded from solvent to be inaccessible to oxidation by H2O2, in contrast to the second pair of cobaltous ions whose ready oxidation by H2O2 inactivates the enzyme. Comparison of kinetic and binding data suggests that only one site of the dimeric enzyme can be active, since activity requires more than two metals bound per dimer and inactivation results from the binding of the fourth ion per dimer. 相似文献

Terbium ions and terbium formycin triphosphate have been used to investigate the interactions between the cation and nucleotide binding sites of the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase. Three classes of Tb3+-binding sites have been found: a first class of low-affinity (Kd = 10 microM) corresponds to magnesium binding sites, located near a tryptophan residue of the protein; a second class of much higher affinity (less than 0.1 microM) corresponds to the calcium transport sites, their occupancy by terbium induces the E1 to E2 conformational change of the Ca2+-ATPase; a third class of sites is revealed by following the fluorescence transfer from formycin triphosphate (FTP) to terbium, evidencing that terbium ions can also bind into the nucleotide binding site at the same time as FTP. Substitution of H2O by D2O shows that Tb-FTP binding to the enzyme nucleotide site is associated with an important dehydration of the terbium ions associated with FTP. Two terbium ions, at least, bind to the Ca2+-ATPase in the close vicinity of FTP when this nucleotide is bound to the ATPase nucleotide site. Addition of calcium quenches the fluorescence signal of the terbium-FTP complex bound to the enzyme. Calcium concentration dependence shows that this effect is associated with the replacement of terbium by calcium in the transport sites, inducing the E2----E1 transconformation when calcium is bound. One interpretation of this fluorescence quenching is that the E1----E2 transition induces an important structural change in the nucleotide site. Another interpretation is that the high-affinity calcium sites are located very close to the Tb-FTP complex bound to the nucleotide site. 相似文献

Experiments are described which suggest that structural features are related to the existence of three high affinity calcium-binding sites in the fibrinogen molecule. The circular dichroism spectra analysis shows that the binding of calcium to this protein does not entail an overall conformational change. However several calcium-induced protective effects may be observed: 1. At pH 5.0 calcium-free fibrinogen is slightly acid-denatured. This denaturation is counteracted by the presence of calcium, whereas magnesium ions have no effect. 2. A temperature transition shift of 3 degrees C is measured in the presence of bound calcium during thermal denaturation, whereas magnesium ions have no effect. 3. Resistance to proteolysis by plasmin is observed when calcium is bound to fibrinogen. The velocity of the splitting of the earliest plasmin-succeptible bonds is reduced in the presence of calcium, whereas magnesium ions have no effect. It can be concluded from these results that the calcium binding centers are located in a more or less flexible zone of the molecule probably involving the C-terminal part of the Aalpha chain. And that the calcium divalent cation stabilizes a more compact structure of the fibrinogen molecule. 相似文献

The regulatory role of divalent metal cations in the NADP-linked isocitrate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.42) from porcine heart was analysed. Saturation curves with respect to the substrate threo-Ds-isocitrate complexed with the metals including manganous, cadmium, cobaltous and zinc ions showed sigmoid relationships characteristic of allosteric enzymes. The Hill's interaction coefficients were 1.90, 1.75, 1.28 and 1.12, respectively. Saturation kinetics of the substrate-metal complexes including magnesium, ferrous and nickel ions exhibited normal hyperbolic curves with Hill's coefficients of 1. The ionic radii of metal cations were closely correlated with the maximal velocity, the enzyme affinity and the Hill's n values for the substrate-metal complexes. Cooperative interactions of metal-substrate complexes with NADP-isocitrate dehydrogenase are discussed in relation to the sites of the enzyme for the binding of the metal-substrate complex. 相似文献

Abstract: The effects of ions on the binding of the excitatory amino acid analogue dl -[3 H]2-amino-4-phosphon-obutyrate to l -glutamate-sensitive sites on rat brain synaptic membranes was investigated. The divalent cations manganese, magnesium, strontium, and particularly calcium, produced a marked enhancement in specific binding. However, this effect was manifest only in the presence of added chloride, or to a lesser extent, with bromide ions. Application of saturation analysis revealed that both chloride and calcium acted to increase the binding site density in a concentration-dependent manner, without affecting the dissociation constant. The only other ionic species found to have a significant effect on 2-amino-4-phosphonobutyrate binding was sodium, which produced an apparent reduction in site affinity, without modifying the binding site density. Although the significance of these striking ionic effects is as yet unknown, it seems feasible that chloride (and possibly also calcium) ions may serve a role in regulating the interaction of excitatory amino acids with their physiological receptors. 相似文献

Chaperonin GroEL assists protein folding in the presence of ATP and magnesium. Recent studies have shown that several divalent
cations other than magnesium induce conformational changes of GroEL, thereby influencing chaperonin-assisted protein folding,
but little is known about the detailed mechanism for such actions. Thus, the effects of divalent cations on protein encapsulation
by GroEL/ES complexes were investigated. Of the divalent cations, not only magnesium, but also manganese ions enabled the
functional refolding and release of 5,10-methylenetetrahydroforate reductase (METF) by GroEL. Neither ATP hydrolysis nor METF
refolding was observed in the presence of zinc ion, whereas only ATP hydrolysis was induced by cobalt and nickel ions. SDS-PAGE
and gel filtration analyses revealed that cobalt, nickel and zinc ions permit the formation of stable substrate-GroEL-GroES
cis-ternary complexes, but prevent the release of METF from GroEL. 相似文献

The biochemical properties of the autophosphorylating protein tyrosine kinase of Acinetobacter johnsonii were analyzed in vitro. The study shows that the optimal pH value for the phosphorylation reaction is approximately 7. The enzyme activity is stimulated by magnesium and, to a lesser extent, by manganese ions, whereas calcium ions have no effect. The phosphorylation process is rapid reaching a maximum in < 2 min, and the enzyme is modified at multiple sites. Interestingly, the bacterial enzyme is insensitive to a series of molecules known to affect the activity of eukaryotic protein tyrosine kinases: genistein, quercetin, tosyllysine chloromethyl ketone, and vanadate. We concluded that, even though the overall phosphorylation reaction catalyzed by the A. johnsonii enzyme is identical to that occurring in eukaryotes, this bacterial kinase exhibits a number of specific properties and therefore probably belongs to a separate group in the general family of protein tyrosine kinases. 相似文献

The interaction of Ca2+ and vanadate with fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) labeled sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+-ATPase has been studied by following the kinetics of changes in the reporter group fluorescence and equilibrium fluorescence levels. The vanadate species bound to the enzyme is clearly monomeric orthovanadate, probably H2VO4-. Vanadate binding is noncooperative, suggesting an absence of interactions between the Ca2+-ATPase subunits. The fluorescence experiments confirm the existence of a calcium-enzyme-vanadate complex (in the presence of magnesium). On the basis of the fluorescence properties of this complex, it is similar in its conformation to the calcium-enzyme complex, i.e., "E1-like" rather than "E2-like". However, Ca2+ binds to the enzyme-vanadate complex via sites that are only accessible from the interior of the SR vesicles. The complex Ca2E*Van, which is rapidly formed, isomerizes very slowly (t1/2 approximately 1 min) to the stable ternary complex. The mutual destabilization between bound vanadate and two bound Ca2+ ions is only 1.6 kcal/mol, much smaller than that produced by the interaction of calcium and phosphate. 相似文献

Phosphodiesterase has been found in the particulate and soluble fractions from young wheat roots. The intracellular distribution of this enzyme was studied by using RNA, oligo DNA and DNPP as the substrates. When oligo DNA was used, 50 to 60 per cent of PPDase activity was found in the soluble fraction and 30 to 40 per cent in the microsomal fraction. Besides magnesium ion, calcium, cobalt, manganese and nickel ions were effective for its activity. The pH optimum of the enzyme was found at 6.0. This PPDase produced 5′-nucleotides from RNA at pH 6.9 on addition of magnesium chloride. 相似文献

Proton NMR is used to compare the structural changes induced in bovine cardiac troponin C on binding of cadmium and calcium ions. The same spectral changes are observed for both ion species. The rate of the conformational changes associated with cadmium binding to the two high-affinity sites is slow, that associated with cadmium ions binding to the low-affinity site is high. 113Cd-NMR spectra of cardiac troponin C feature two signals interpreted as due to cadmium ions bound to the strong sites. Strong arguments are given in favour of cooperativity in binding of the first two cadmium or calcium ions to cardiac and skeletal muscle troponin C. 相似文献

Dihydrofolate reductase and its complexes have been studied by fluorescence and circular dichroism. NADPH, trimethoprim, pyrimethamine, or Methotrexate binding causes small changes in the enzyme far ultraviolet CD which possibly arise from alterations in polypeptide backbone of the enzyme; however, their effects on enzyme far ultraviolet CD are also explained as the result of ligand interactions with enzyme aromatic groups. In ternary complexes of the enzyme, fluorescence properties of bound NADPH are surprisingly sensitive to the type of inhibitor bound nearby. The effect of temperature on the enzyme and its complexes is clearly shown by changes in enzyme fluorescence and CD. At temperatures near 45 degrees C, the enzyme undergoes an irreversible denaturation, as shown by major alterations in enzyme far ultraviolet CD and by an increased rate of fluorescence quenching. Binary complexes with NADPH or Methotrexate stabilize the enzyme towards this heat denaturation, whereas bound trimethoprim and pyrimethamine do not. Ternary complexes with NADPH and any of the ligands are more stable than the enzyme itself toward heat denaturation. Fluorescence-temperature and fluorescence polarization studies show that near 30 degrees C the enzyme undergoes a reversible transition that is modified by NADPH or methotrexate. 相似文献

The conformations of heparin in aqueous solution in the presence of sodium, potassium, magnesium and calcium cations were studied using circular dichroism, optical rotation, nuclear magnetic resonance and equilibrium dialysis. Potassium and magnesium cations, when added to sodium heparinate solutions, cause small chiroptical changes. Binding of calcium ions gives rise to large changes in both optical rotation and circular dichroism. This is indicative of a major change in chain conformation, which is also manifest in 13C and 1H n.m.r.4Equilibrium dialysis suggests one mole of calcium bound per mole of tetrasaccharide, which n.m.r. indicates to be appropriately sulphated iduronateglucosamine-iduronate-glucosamine. The calcium is chelated by two iduronate carboxyl groups. Proton-proton coupling constants, determined by convolution difference spectroscopy and Carr-Purcell sequences, indicate that, over the temperature range 285 to 353 K, the iduronate ring is best described as 1C4(l) and the glucosamine residue as 4C1(d) for both sodium and calcium forms.The conformational change induced by calcium is ascribed to rotation around the glycosidic linkages. The binding process is co-operative and the binding constant of 103 to 104m?1 is biologically significant. The findings are consistent with intramolecular binding. Hence, this study represents the first report of a polysaccharide undergoing a cation-induced intramolecular disorder-order process. The authors postulate that a function of the post-polymerization epimerization of d-glucuronate to l-iduronate is the attainment of the precise geometry required for co-operative calcium binding with consequent modulation of the flexibility of the tetrasaccharide units. 相似文献

Occlusion of divalent cations in the phosphorylated calcium pump of sarcoplasmic reticulum 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Y Dupont 《European journal of biochemistry》1980,109(1):231-238
The calcium pump of sarcoplasmic reticulum possesses high-affinity calcium-binding and ATP-binding sites. At 0 degrees C pH 6.8 and in the absence of calcium, about 3.5 nmol/mg of high-affinity ATP-binding sites are titrated with a dissociation constant, Kd, of 5 microM. In the presence of Ca2+, ATP phosphorylates the enzyme at a much lower concentration: K 1/2 = 100 nM. In the absence of ATP the calcium ions reversibly bind to the high-affinity calcium sites (6.5 nmol/mg); however the following is shown in this paper. 1. Phosphorylation of the enzyme in the presence of calcium leads to the immediate occlusion of the calcium ions bound to the high-affinity sites. 2. Two moles of calcium are occluded per mole of phosphoenzyme formed. 3. Occlusion can be reversed by ADP. 4. Transport is a slower process which occurs in the presence of Mg2+ at the same rate as the spontaneous decay of the phosphoenzyme. Experiments performed in the absence of magnesium reveal another divalent cation binding site which is probably directly involved in ATP and Pi binding. The nature of the cation bound to this site determines the stability and ADP-sensitivity of the phosphoenzyme. 相似文献

A calcium-dependent cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase from rat cerebrum was, in the absence of activator protein, inhibited by various monovalent cations. The inhibition was rapid, readily reversible, and concentration-dependent, with 100 mM cesium, rubidium, or potassium ion inhibiting essentially all basal enzyme activity, while 100 mM sodium or lithium ions produced only moderate inhibition. The potency of the cations in inhibiting the enzyme was Cs greater than or equal to Rb greater than K greater than Na greater than or equal to Li. Potassium ions increased the apparent Km for cyclic GMP and cyclic AMP by 3- and 5-fold, respectively. At 100 mM, the monovalent cations inhibited enzyme activated by the calcium-dependent activator by only 15 to 30%, while at 55 mM no inhibition pertained. Potassium and sodium ions at 55 mM had no effect on the calcium-independent phosphodiesterase from rat cerebrum. The results indicate that at normal intracellular concentrations of potassium ions the activity of the calcium-dependent phosphodiesterase is virtually completely dependent on the presence of calcium plus activator protein. 相似文献

Nickel cytochrome c has been synthesized by the reaction of metal-free porphyrin cytochrome c with Ni(II) ions in 0.6 Mglycylglycine and 4 M KSCN. Electronic spectra and susceptibility measurement showed the nickel to be in a high-spin octahedral configuration exemplifying the strong influence of the protein moiety as a macrocyclic ligand on the coordination chemistry of the metal ion. Nickel cytochrome c has the same electrophoretic mobility, helicity and pK values of conformational transitions as the native enzyme. At high pH, the partially denatured nickel cytochrome c becomes dimeric. Nitric oxide reacts with nickel cytochrome c to form the nitrosyl derivative with (formula: see text). Reaction of NO with nickel protoporphyrin IX dimethyl ester in toluene, pyridine, or methylthioethanol produced no stable nitrosyl products, clearly demonstrating the effect of protein on metal ion ligation. 相似文献
