Tetraalkylammonium (TAA) salts are well known reversible inhibitors of cholinesterases. However, at concentrations around 10 mm, they have been found to activate the hydrolysis of positively charged substrates, catalyzed by wild-type human butyrylcholinesterase (EC 3.1.1.8) [Erdoes, E.G., Foldes, F.F., Zsigmond, E.K., Baart, N. & Zwartz, J.A. (1958) Science 128, 92]. The present study was undertaken to determine whether the peripheral anionic site (PAS) of human BuChE (Y332, D70) and/or the catalytic substrate binding site (CS) (W82, A328) are involved in this phenomenon. For this purpose, the kinetics of butyrylthiocholine (BTC) hydrolysis by wild-type human BuChE, by selected mutants and by horse BuChE was carried out at 25 degreeC and pH 7.0 in the presence of tetraethylammonium (TEA). It appears that human enzymes with more intact structure of the PAS show more prominent activation phenomenon. The following explanation has been put forward: TEA competes with the substrate at the peripheral site thus inhibiting the substrate hydrolysis at the CS. As the inhibition by TEA is less effective than the substrate inhibition itself, it mimics activation. At the concentrations around 40 mm, well within the range of TEA competition at both substrate binding sites, it lowers the activity of all tested enzymes. 相似文献

Substrate inhibition is considered a defining property of acetylcholinesterase (AChE), whereas substrate activation is characteristic of butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE). To understand the mechanism of substrate inhibition, the pH dependence of acetylthiocholine hydrolysis by AChE was studied between pH 5 and 8. Wild-type human AChE and its mutants Y337G and Y337W, as well as wild-type Bungarus fasciatus AChE and its mutants Y333G, Y333A and Y333W were studied. The pH profile results were unexpected. Instead of substrate inhibition, wild-type AChE and all mutants showed substrate activation at low pH. At high pH, there was substrate inhibition for wild-type AChE and for the mutant with tryptophan in the π-cation subsite, but substrate activation for mutants containing small residues, glycine or alanine. This is particularly apparent in the B. fasciatus AChE. Thus a single amino acid substitution in the π-cation site, from the aromatic tyrosine of B. fasciatus AChE to the alanine of BuChE, caused AChE to behave like BuChE. Excess substrate binds to the peripheral anionic site (PAS) of AChE. The finding that AChE is activated by excess substrate supports the idea that binding of a second substrate molecule to the PAS induces a conformational change that reorganizes the active site. 相似文献

A series of N-10 urea derivatives of phenothiazine was synthesized and each compound was evaluated for its ability to inhibit human cholinesterases. Most were specific inhibitors of BuChE. However, the potent inhibitory effects on both cholinesterases of one sub-class, the cationic aminoureas, provide an additional binding mechanism to cholinesterases for these compounds. The comparative effects of aminoureas on wild-type BuChE and several BuChE mutants indicate a binding process involving salt linkage with the aspartate of the cholinesterase peripheral anionic site. The effect of such compounds on cholinesterase activity at high substrate concentration supports ionic interaction of aminoureas at the peripheral anionic site. 相似文献

Hydrolysis of the neutral substrate N-methylindoxyl acetate (NMIA) by wild-type human butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) and peripheral site mutants (D70G, Y332A, D70G/Y332A) was found to follow the Michaelis-Menten kinetics. K(m) was 0.14 mM for wild-type, and 0.07-0.16 mM for D70G, Y332A and D70G/Y332A, indicating that the peripheral site is not involved in NMIA binding. The values of k(cat) were of the same order for all enzymes: 12,000-18,000 min(-1). Volume changes upon substrate binding (-DeltaV(K(m))) and the activation volumes (DeltaV++(k(cat)) associated with hydrolysis of NMIA were calculated from the pressure dependence of the catalytic constants. Values of -DeltaV(K(m)) indicate that NMIA binds to an aromatic residue, presumed to be W82, the active site binding locus. Binding is accompanied by a release of water molecules from the gorge. Residue 70 controls the number of water molecules that are released upon substrate binding. The values of DeltaV++(k(cat)), which are positive for wild-type and faintly positive for D70G, clearly indicate that the catalytic steps are accompanied by re-entry of water into the gorge. Results support the premise that residue D70 is involved in the conformational stabilization of the active site gorge and in control of its hydration. A slow transient, preceding the steady state, was seen on a time scale of several minutes. The induction time rapidly increased with NMIA concentration to reach a limit at substrate saturation. Much shorter induction times (<1 min) were seen for hydrolysis of benzoylcholine (BzCh) by wild-type BuChE and for hydrolysis of butyrylthiocholine (BuSCh) by the active site mutants E197Q and E197Q/G117H. This slow transient was interpreted in terms of hysteresis without kinetic cooperativity. The hysteretic behavior of BuChE results from a slow conformational equilibrium between two enzyme states E and E'. NMIA binds only to the primed form E'. Kosmotropic salts and hydrostatic pressure were found to shift the equilibrium toward E'. The E-->E' transition is accompanied by a negative activation volume (DeltaV++(0)= -45+/-10 ml/mol), and the E' form is more compact than E. Hydration water in the gorge of E' appears to be more structured than in the unprimed form. 相似文献

The steady-state kinetics of the K+, Ca2+, and Mg2+-activated adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activities of rabbit skeletal myosin were investigated in the substrate concentration range from 0.05 microM to 5 mM and found not to follow Michaelis-Menten kinetics but rather to display biphasic behavior. The Ca2+-ATPase activity of myosin chymotryptic subfragment-1 (S-1), which has only one active site, also exhibits biphasic kinetics, thus excluding the possibility that the biphasic behavior is caused by negative cooperativity between the two active sites of myosin. Myosin K+ and Mg2+-ATPase are both activated by 5'-adenyl methylenediphosphonate (AdoPP[CH2]P) in a competitive manner at high substrate concentrations; i.e. the maximal velocity observed at high substrate concentrations is independent of the AdoPP[CH2]P concentration. This result provides evidence for substrate activation via binding to a regulatory site. Pyrophosphate inhibits myosin ATPase in a competitive manner at low substrate concentrations and in an uncompetitive manner at high substrate concentrations, with the uncompetitive Ki being smaller than the competitive Ki; i.e. pyrophosphate binds more tightly to the effector site than to the active site. 相似文献

p-Butyroxybenzenediazonium fluoroborate 1 was shown to be a substrate of both acetylcholinesterase (AcChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) with Michaelis constants of 6.10(-5) M and 1.3. 10(-4)M, respectively. Upon incubation in the dark, 1 was able to discriminate between the two enzymes AcChE was efficiently inactivated in a time-dependent manner while BuChE remained unaffected. Kinetic analysis of the inactivation of AcChE (i) by various concentrations of 1 indicated that it behaves as an affinity label, (ii) at three different pH levels suggested that the pKa of the labelled residue was higher than 7 and (iii) in the presence of different selective ligands for either the active site (edrophonium) or the peripheral site (propidium) indicated that 1 alkylated the active site rather than the peripheral one. Differences of reactivity between AcChE and BuChE suggest a different positioning and/or a different chemical environment of the substrate within two active sites. 相似文献

The combined action of temperature (10-35 degrees C) and pressure (0. 001-2 kbar) on the catalytic activity of wild-type human butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) and its D70G mutant was investigated at pH 7.0 using butyrylthiocholine as the substrate. The residue D70, located at the mouth of the active site gorge, is an essential component of the peripheral substrate binding site of BuChE. Results showed a break in Arrhenius plots of wild-type BuChE (at Tt approximately 22 degrees C) whatever the pressure (dTt/dP = 1.6 +/- 1.5 degrees C.kbar-1), whereas no break was observed in Arrhenius plots of the D70G mutant. These results suggested a temperature-induced conformational change of the wild-type BuChE which did not occur for the D70G mutant. For the wild-type BuChE, at around a pressure of 1 kbar, an intermediate state, whose affinity for substrate was increased, appeared. This intermediate state was not seen for the mutant enzyme. The wild-type BuChE remained active up to a pressure of 2 kbar whatever the temperature, whereas the D70G mutant was found to be more sensitive to pressure inactivation (at pressures higher than 1.5 kbar the mutant enzyme lost its activity at temperatures lower than 25 degrees C). The results indicate that the residue D70 controls the conformational plasticity of the active site gorge of BuChE, and is involved in regulation of the catalytic activity as a function of temperature. 相似文献

Reversible inhibition of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) from bovine erythrocytes and butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) from horse blood serum by quaternary diaminoalkyl esters of suberic (D-6), p-phenylenediacetic (PK-139), p-phenylenedipropionic (PK-154 and PK-155), p-phenylenediacrylic (PK-150 and PK-151) and phthalic (PK-105) acids, was studied under the following incubation conditions: pH 7.5, 25 degrees C, 0.1 M KCl. The inhibition kinetics were of a mixed competitive-incompetitive type, the incompetitive component alpha'-having higher values for AChE (0.26-0.60) than for BuChE (0.10-0.20). Diester PK-150 selectively inhibited BuChE (Ki=3.0-10(-6) M); its Ki value for AChE was 4.0-10(-4) M. The other diesters had a stronger inhibitory effect on AChE than on BuChE. High values of alpha' observed during AChE inhibition cannot be interpreted in terms of interaction of those bisquaternary compounds with the anionic site of the acetylated active centre and are probably due to their sorbtion at the peripheral anionic sites. Incompetitive inhibition constants (K'i=Ki/alpha') of BuChE by the diesters PK-139, PK-154 and PK-150 were found to be values of the same order as substrate inhibition constants determined in the course of BuChE hydrolysis of these diesters. Incompetitive inhibition found for the esters studied and substrate inhibition during hydrolysis of these compounds are presumably due to the same mechanism. 相似文献

Acetylcholine hydrolysis by acetylcholinesterase is inhibited at high substrate concentrations. To determine the residues involved in this phenomenon, we have mutated most of the residues lining the active-site gorge but mutating these did not completely eliminate hydrolysis. Thus, we analyzed the effect of a nonhydrolysable substrate analogue on substrate hydrolysis and on reactivation of an analogue of the acetylenzyme. Analyses of various models led us to propose the following sequence of events: the substrate initially binds at the rim of the active-site gorge and then slides down to the bottom of the gorge where it is hydrolyzed. Another substrate molecule can bind to the peripheral site: (a) when the choline is still inside the gorge - it will thereby hinder its exit; (b) after choline has dissociated but before deacetylation occurs - binding at the peripheral site increases deacetylation rate but (c) if a substrate molecule bound to the peripheral site slides down to the bottom of the active-site before the catalytic serine is deacetylated, its new position will prevent the approach of water, thus blocking deacetylation. 相似文献

The rate-limiting step for hydrolysis of the positively charged oxoester benzoylcholine (BzCh) by human butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) is deacylation (k(3)), whereas it is acylation (k(2)) for hydrolysis of the homologous thioester benzoylthiocholine (BzSCh). Steady-state hydrolysis of BzCh and BzSCh by wild-type BuChE and its peripheral anionic site mutant D70G was investigated at different hydrostatic pressures, which allowed determination of volume changes associated with substrate binding, and the activation volumes for the chemical steps. A differential nonlinear pressure-dependence of the catalytic parameters for hydrolysis of both substrates by both enzymes was shown. Nonlinearity of the plots may be explained in terms of compressibility changes or rate-limiting changes. To distinguish between these two possibilities, enzyme phosphorylation by diisopropylfluorophosphate (DFP) in the presence of substrate (BzSCh) under pressure was studied. There was no pressure dependence of volume changes for DFP binding or for phosphorylation of either wild-type or D70G. Analysis of the pressure dependence for steady-state hydrolysis of substrates, and for phosphorylation by DFP provided evidence that no enzyme compressibility changes occurred during the catalyzed reactions. Thus, the nonlinear pressure dependence of substrate hydrolysis reflects changes in the rate-limiting step with pressure. Change in rate-determining step occurred at a pressure of 100 MPa for hydrolysis of BzCh by wild-type and at 75 MPa for D70G. For hydrolysis of BzSCh the change occurred at higher pressures because k(2) < k(3) at atmospheric pressure for this substrate. Elementary volume change contributions upon initial binding, productive binding, acylation and deacylation were calculated from the pressure differentiation of kinetic constants. This analysis shed light on the molecular events taking place along the hydrolysis pathways of BzCh and BzSCh by wild-type BuChE and the D70G mutant. In addition, volume change differences between wild-type and D70G provided new evidence that residue D70 in the peripheral site controls hydration of the active site gorge and the dynamics of the water molecule network during catalysis. Finally, a steady-state kinetic study of the oxyanion hole mutant (G117H) showed that substitution of the ethereal sulfur for oxygen in the substrate alters the final adjustment of substrate in the active site and stabilization of the acylation transition state. 相似文献

The aryl-acylamidase (AAA) activity of butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) has been known for a long time. However, the kinetic mechanism of aryl-acylamide hydrolysis by BuChE has not been investigated. Therefore, the catalytic properties of human BuChE and its peripheral site mutant (D70G) toward neutral and charged aryl-acylamides were determined. Three neutral (o-nitroacetanilide, m-nitroacetanilide, o-nitrophenyltrifluoroacetamide) and one positively charged (3-(acetamido) N,N,N-trimethylanilinium, ATMA) acetanilides were studied. Hydrolysis of ATMA by wild-type and D70G enzymes showed a long transient phase preceding the steady state. The induction phase was characterized by a hysteretic "burst". This reflects the existence of two enzyme states in slow equilibrium with different catalytic properties. Steady-state parameters for hydrolysis of the three acetanilides were compared to catalytic parameters for hydrolysis of esters giving the same acetyl intermediate. Wild-type BuChE showed substrate activation while D70G displayed a Michaelian behavior with ATMA as with positively charged esters. Owing to the low affinity of BuChE for amide substrates, the hydrolysis kinetics of neutral amides was first order. Acylation was the rate-determining step for hydrolysis of aryl-acetylamide substrates. Slow acylation of the enzyme, relative to that by esters may, in part, be due suboptimal fit of the aryl-acylamides in the active center of BuChE. The hypothesis that AAA and esterase active sites of BuChE are non-identical was tested with mutant BuChE. It was found that mutations on the catalytic serine, S198C and S198D, led to complete loss of both activities. The silent variant (FS117) had neither esterase nor AAA activity. Mutation in the peripheral site (D70G) had the same effect on esterase and AAA activities. Echothiophate inhibited both activities identically. It was concluded that the active sites for esterase and AAA activities are identical, i.e. S198. This excludes any other residue present in the gorge for being the catalytic nucleophile pole. 相似文献

Bacterial l-serine dehydratases differ from mammalian l- and d-serine dehydratases and bacterial d-serine dehydratases by the presence of an iron-sulfur center rather than a pyridoxyl phosphate prosthetic group. They exist in two forms, types 1 and 2, distinguished by their sequence and oligomeric configuration. Both types contain an ASB domain, and the type 1 enzymes also contain an ACT domain in a tandem arrangement with the ASB domain like that in type 1 d-3-phosphoglycerate dehydrogenases (PGDHs). This investigation reveals striking kinetic differences between l-serine dehydratases from Bacillus subtilis (bsLSD, type 1) and Legionella pneumophila (lpLSD, type 2). lpLSD is activated by monovalent cations and inhibited by monovalent anions. bsLSD is strongly activated by cations, particularly potassium, and shows a mixed response to anions. Flouride is a competitive inhibitor for lpLSD but an apparent activator for bsLSD at low concentrations and an inhibitor at high concentrations. The reaction products, pyruvate and ammonia, also act as activators but to different extents for each type. Pyruvate activation is competitive with l-serine, but activation of the enzyme is not compatible with it simply competing for binding at the active site and suggests the presence of a second, allosteric site. Because activation can be eliminated by higher levels of l-serine, it may be that this second site is actually a second serine binding site. This is consistent with type 1 PGDH in which the ASB domain functions as a second site for substrate binding and activation. 相似文献

The action of a potent tricyclic cholinesterase inhibitor ethopropazine on the hydrolysis of acetylthiocholine and butyrylthiocholine by purified horse serum butyrylcholinesterase (EC 3.1.1.8) was investigated at 25 and 37 degrees C. The enzyme activities were measured on a stopped-flow apparatus and the analysis of experimental data was done by applying a six-parameter model for substrate hydrolysis. The model, which was introduced to explain the kinetics of Drosophila melanogaster acetylcholinesterase [Stojan et al. (1998) FEBS Lett. 440, 85-88], is defined with two dissociation constants and four rate constants and can describe both cooperative phenomena, apparent activation at low substrate concentrations and substrate inhibition by excess of substrate. For the analysis of the data in the presence of ethopropazine at two temperatures, we have enlarged the reaction scheme to allow primarily its competition with the substrate at the peripheral site, but the competition at the acylation site was not excluded. The proposed reaction scheme revealed, upon analysis, competitive effects of ethopropazine at both sites; at 25 degrees C, three enzyme-inhibitor dissociation constants could be evaluated; at 37 degrees C, only two constants could be evaluated. Although the model considers both cooperative phenomena, it appears that decreased enzyme sensitivity at higher temperature, predominantly for the ligands at the peripheral binding site, makes the determination of some expected enzyme substrate and/or inhibitor complexes technically impossible. The same reason might also account for one of the paradoxes in cholinesterases: activities at 25 degrees C at low substrate concentrations are higher than at 37 degrees C. Positioning of ethopropazine in the active-site gorge by molecular dynamics simulations shows that A328, W82, D70, and Y332 amino acid residues stabilize binding of the inhibitor. 相似文献

Cholinesterases, in addition to their well-known esterase action, also show an aryl acylamidase (AAA) activity whereby they catalyze the hydrolysis of amides of certain aromatic amines. The biological function of this catalysis is not known. Furthermore, it is not known whether the esterase catalytic site is involved in the AAA activity of cholinesterases. It has been speculated that the AAA activity, especially that of butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE), may be important in the development of the nervous system and in pathological processes such as formation of neuritic plaques in Alzheimer's disease (AD). The substrate generally used to study the AAA activity of cholinesterases is N-(2-nitrophenyl)acetamide. However, use of this substrate requires high concentrations of enzyme and substrate, and prolonged periods of incubation at elevated temperature. As a consequence, difficulties in performing kinetic analysis of AAA activity associated with cholinesterases have hampered understanding this activity. Because of its potential biological importance, we sought to develop a more efficient and specific substrate for use in studying the AAA activity associated with BuChE, and for exploring the catalytic site for this hydrolysis. Here, we describe the structure-activity relationships for hydrolysis of anilides by cholinesterases. These studies led to a substrate, N-(2-nitrophenyl)trifluoroacetamide, that was hydrolyzed several orders of magnitude faster than N-(2-nitrophenyl)acetamide by cholinesterases. Also, larger N-(2-nitrophenyl)alkylamides were found to be more rapidly hydrolyzed by BuChE than N-(2-nitrophenyl)acetamide and, in addition, were more specific for hydrolysis by BuChE. Thus, N-(2-nitrophenyl)alkylamides with six to eight carbon atoms in the acyl group represent suitable specific substrates to investigate further the function of the AAA activity of BuChE. Based on the substrate structure-activity relationships and kinetic studies, the hydrolysis of anilides and esters of choline appears to utilize the same catalytic site in BuChE. 相似文献

The prothrombinase complex, composed of the proteinase, factor Xa, bound to factor Va on membranes, catalyzes thrombin formation by the specific and ordered proteolysis of prothrombin at Arg(323)-Ile(324), followed by cleavage at Arg(274)-Thr(275). We have used a fluorescent derivative of meizothrombin des fragment 1 (mIIaDeltaF1) as a substrate analog to assess the mechanism of substrate recognition in the second half-reaction of bovine prothrombin activation. Cleavage of mIIaDeltaF1 exhibits pseudo-first order kinetics regardless of the substrate concentration relative to K(m). This phenomenon arises from competitive product inhibition by thrombin, which binds to prothrombinase with exactly the same affinity as mIIaDeltaF1. As thrombin is known to bind to an exosite on prothrombinase, initial interactions at an exosite likely play a role in the enzyme-substrate interaction. Occupation of the active site of prothrombinase by a reversible inhibitor does not exclude the binding of mIIaDeltaF1 to the enzyme. Specific recognition of mIIaDeltaF1 is achieved through an initial bimolecular reaction with an enzymic exosite, followed by an active site docking step in an intramolecular reaction prior to bond cleavage. By alternate substrate studies, we have resolved the contributions of the individual binding steps to substrate affinity and catalysis. This pathway for substrate binding is identical to that previously determined with a substrate analog for the first half-reaction of prothrombin activation. We show that differences in the observed kinetic constants for the two cleavage reactions arise entirely from differences in the inferred equilibrium constant for the intramolecular binding step that permits elements surrounding the scissile bond to dock at the active site of prothrombinase. Therefore, substrate specificity is achieved by binding interactions with an enzymic exosite that tethers the protein substrate to prothrombinase and directs cleavage at two spatially distinct scissile bonds. 相似文献

Isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) was developed for measuring lignin peroxidase (LiP) and manganese peroxidase (MnP) activities of versatile peroxidase (VP) from Bjerkandera adusta. Developing an ITC approach provided an alternative to colorimetric methods that enabled reaction kinetics to be accurately determined. Although VP from Bjerkandera adjusta is a hybrid enzyme, specific conditions of [Mn+2] and pH were defined that limited activity to either LiP or MnP activities, or enabled both to be active simultaneously. MnP activity was found to be more efficient than LiP activity, with activity increasing with increasing concentrations of Mn+2. These properties of MnP were explained by a second metal binding site involved in homotropic substrate (Mn+2) activation. The activation of MnP was also accompanied by a decrease in both activation energy and substrate (Mn) affinity, reflecting a flexible enzyme structure. In contrast to MnP activity, LiP activity was inhibited by high dye (substrate) concentrations arising from uncompetitive substrate inhibition caused by substrate binding to a site distinct from the catalytic site. Our study provides a new level of understanding about the mechanism of substrate regulation of catalysis in VP from B. adjusta, providing insight into a class of enzyme, hybrid class II peroxidases, for which little experimental data is available. 相似文献

Substrate competition for human acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and human butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) was studies under steady-state conditions using wide range of substrate concentrations. Competing couples of substates were acetyl-(thio)esters. Phenyl acetate (PhA) was the reporter substrate and competitor were either acetylcholine (ACh) or acetylthiocholine (ATC). The common point between investigated substrates is that the acyl moiety is acetate, i.e. same deacylation rate constant for reporter and competitor substrate.Steady-state kinetics of cholinesterase-catalyzed hydrolysis of PhA in the presence of ACh or ATC revealed 3 phases of inhibition as concentration of competitor increased: a) competitive inhibition, b) partially mixed inhibition, c) partially uncompetitive inhibition for AChE and partially uncompetitive activation for BChE. This sequence reflects binding of competitor in the active centrer at low concentration and on the peripheral anionic site (PAS) at high concentration. In particular, it showed that binding of a competing ligand on PAS may affect the catalytic behavior of AChE and BChE in an opposite way, i.e. inhibition of AChE and activation of BChE, regardless the nature of the reporter substrate.For both enzymes, progress curves for hydrolysis of PhA at very low concentration (?Km) in the presence of increasing concentration of ATC showed that: a) the competing substrate and the reporter substrate are hydrolyzed at the same time, b) complete hydrolysis of PhA cannot be reached above 1 mM competing substrate. This likely results from accumulation of hydrolysis products (P) of competing substrate and/or accumulation of acetylated enzyme·P complex that inhibit hydrolysis of the reporter substrate. 相似文献

1. Soluble butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) was isolated from the visual ganglia of the squid Todarodes sagittatus L. Gel-chromatography on Sephadex G-200 columns resulted in its separation into three molecular forms.2. The major component with a molecular mass of 180kDa was used for kinetic study.3. The substrate analysis revealed squid enzyme to be BuChE of unusual type.4. Unlike typical BuChE (EC 3.1.1.8), squid enzyme splits acetyl-β-methylcholine (AMCh) with a relatively high rate, alongside with common BuChE substrates—butyrylcholine (BCh), propionylcholine (PCh), acetylcholine (ACh), butyrylthiocholine (BTCh) and acetylthiocholine (ATCh), the enzymic hydrolysis being suppressed by excess of all these substrates.5. Among them, the highest values of kcat andkcat/Km were found for BCh and BTCh. Maximal activity of the enzyme was noticed at low BCh and BTCh concentrations (1–2 mM).6. Tetraalkylammonium ions exhibit a mixed type of inhibition and suppress the substrate inhibition of squid BuChE.7. Among organophosphorus inhibitors (OPI), the methylthiophosphonates are most potent for squid BuChE, and for some phosphates, selective OPI of typical BuChE, are potent as well.8. By the pattern of selectivity to OPI, squid enzyme differs from both typical BuChE of horse serum and acetylcholinesterase (EC 3.1.1.7) from bovine erythrocytes.9. Some details of the active center structure of squid BuChE compared to that of typical enzymes are discussed. 相似文献

Herein, we present results from molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of the human butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) enzyme in aqueous solution. Two configurations of the unbound form of BuChE differing in the presence or absence of a sodium ion inside the protein gorge were simulated for 10 and 5 ns, respectively. Besides complementing the structural information provided by X-ray data, the MD simulations give insight into the structure of the native BuChE enzyme. For example, it is shown that: the nucleophilic Ser(198) residue and the various binding subsites in the BuChE catalytic cavity are readily accessible from the exterior of the protein; the presence of the sodium ion dynamically explores two different binding sites in the gorge leading to the active site and stabilizes the productive conformation of the Glu(325)/His(438)/Ser(198) catalytic triad; several long-lived water bridges are fully integrated into the architecture of the active site; the positions of the residues at the rim of the gorge region display large deviations with respect to the crystal structure; and two side doors, constituted by residues situated at the tip of the acyl- and Omega-loops, respectively, open wide enough to allow the passage of water molecules. In conclusion, we compare our theoretical results with those from previous work on mouse acetylcholinesterase and discuss their implications for substrate binding and catalysis in BuChE. 相似文献
