Glucokinase (GK) has several known polymorphic activating mutations that increase the enzyme activity by enhancing glucose binding affinity and/or by alleviating the inhibition of glucokinase regulatory protein (GKRP), a key regulator of GK activity in the liver. Kinetic studies were undertaken to better understand the effect of these mutations on the enzyme mechanism of GK activation and GKRP regulation and to relate the enzyme properties to the associated clinical phenotype of hypoglycemia. Similar to wild type GK, the transient kinetics of glucose binding for activating mutations follows a general two-step mechanism, the formation of an enzyme-glucose complex followed by an enzyme conformational change. However, the kinetics for each step differed from wild type GK and could be grouped into specific types of kinetic changes. Mutations T65I, Y214C, and A456V accelerate glucose binding to the apoenzyme form, whereas W99R, Y214C, and V455M facilitate enzyme isomerization to the active form. Mutations that significantly enhance the glucose binding to the apoenzyme also disrupt the protein-protein interaction with GKRP to a large extent, suggesting these mutations may adopt a more compact conformation in the apoenzyme favorable for glucose binding. Y214C is the most active mutation (11-fold increase in k(cat)/K(0.5)(h)) and exhibits the most severe clinical effects of hypoglycemia. In contrast, moderate activating mutation A456V nearly abolishes the GKRP inhibition (76-fold increase in K(i)) but causes only mild hypoglycemia. This suggests that the alteration in GK enzyme activity may have a more profound biological impact than the alleviation of GKRP inhibition. 相似文献

To better understand how glucokinase (GK) missense mutations associated with human glycemic diseases perturb glucose homeostasis, we generated and characterized mice with either an activating (A456V) or inactivating (K414E) mutation in the gk gene. Animals with these mutations exhibited alterations in their blood glucose concentration that were inversely related to the relative activity index of GK. Moreover, the threshold for glucose-stimulated insulin secretion from islets with either the activating or inactivating mutation were left- or right-shifted, respectively. However, we were surprised to find that mice with the activating mutation had markedly reduced amounts of hepatic GK activity. Further studies of bacterially expressed mutant enzymes revealed that GK(A456V) is as stable as the wild type enzyme, whereas GK(K414E) is thermolabile. However, the ability of GK regulatory protein to inhibit GK(A456V) was found to be less than that of the wild type enzyme, a finding consistent with impaired hepatic nuclear localization. Taken together, this study indicates that it is necessary to have knowledge of both thermolability and the interactions of mutant GK enzymes with GK regulatory protein when attempting to predict in vivo glycemic phenotypes based on the measurement of enzyme kinetics. 相似文献

Glucose-induced conformational changes in glucokinase mediate allosteric regulation: transient kinetic analysis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The transient kinetics of glucose binding to glucokinase (GK) was studied using stopped-flow fluorescence spectrophotometry to investigate the underlying mechanism of positive cooperativity of monomeric GK with glucose. Glucose binding to GK was shown to display biphasic kinetics that fit best to a reversible two-step mechanism. GK initially binds glucose to form a transient intermediate, namely, E* x glucose, followed by a conformational change to a catalytically competent E x glucose complex. The microscopic rate constants for each step were determined as follows: on rate k1 of 557 M(-1) s(-1) and off rate k(-1) of 8.1 s(-1) for E* x glucose formation, and forward rate k2 of 0.45 s(-1) and reverse rate k(-2) of 0.28 s(-1) for the conformational change from E* x glucose to E x glucose. These results suggest that the enzyme conformational change induced by glucose binding is a reversible, slow event that occurs outside the catalytic cycle (kcat = 38 s(-1)). This slow transition between the two enzyme conformations modulated by glucose likely forms the kinetic foundation for the allosteric regulation. Furthermore, the kinetics of the enzyme conformational change was altered in favor of E x glucose formation in D2O, accompanied by a decrease in cooperativity with glucose (Hill slope of 1.3 in D2O vs 1.7 in H2O). The deuterium solvent isotope effects confirm the role of the conformational change in the magnitude of glucose cooperativity. Similar studies were conducted with GK activating mutation Y214C at the allosteric activator site that is likely involved in the protein domain rearrangement associated with glucose binding. The mutation enhanced equilibrium glucose binding by a combination of effects on both the formation of E* x glucose and an enzyme conformational change to E x glucose. Kinetic simulation by KINSIM supports the conclusion that the kinetic cooperativity of GK arises from slow glucose-induced conformational changes in GK. 相似文献

Glucokinase (GCK) acts as a glucose sensor and regulates β-cell insulin secretion. The heterozygous mutations in the gene
encoding GCK cause a reduction of the enzyme activity, which results in a monogenic form of diabetes, maturity-onset diabetes
of the young. In the present study, we identified and functionally characterized a novel missense mutation in the GCK gene, which results in a protein mutation Glu339 → Lys (E339K), from a Chinese family with hyperglycemia. The same GCK mutation that co-segregated with diabetes phenotype
was identified in five members of this family but was not found in 200 healthy control individuals. We expressed and affinity-purified
the GCK proteins from bacterial expression system that carries mutation (E339K) and fused to glutathione S-transferase. The
expressed GCK protein was subjected to the measurement of its biochemical effects of the missense mutation on GCK activity.
Our results showed that the mutation reduced the GCK protein yield. The enzymatic kinetics and the thermal stability analysis
on the recombinant GCK proteins revealed that the mutation inactivates enzyme kinetics and severely impaired the GCK protein
stability. 相似文献

Glucose modulation of glucokinase activation by small molecules 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Small molecule activators of glucokinase (GK) were used in kinetic and equilibrium binding studies to probe the biochemical basis for their allosteric effects. These small molecules decreased the glucose K 0.5 ( approximately 1 mM vs approximately 8 mM) and the glucose cooperativity (Hill coefficient of 1.2 vs 1.7) and lowered the k cat to various degrees (62-95% of the control activity). These activators relieved GK's inhibition from glucokinase regulatory protein (GKRP) in a glucose-dependent manner and activated GK to the same extent as control reactions in the absence of GKRP. In equilibrium binding studies, the intrinsic glucose affinity to the activator-bound enzyme was determined and demonstrated a 700-fold increase relative to the apoenzyme. This is consistent with a reduction in apparent glucose K D and the steady-state parameter K 0.5 as a result of enzyme equilibrium shifting to the activator-bound form. The binding of small molecules to GK was dependent on glucose, consistent with the structural evidence for an allosteric binding site which is present in the glucose-induced, active enzyme form of GK and absent in the inactive apoenzyme [Kamata et al. (2004) Structure 12, 429-438]. A mechanistic model that brings together the kinetic and structural data is proposed which allows qualitative and quantitative analysis of the glucose-dependent GK regulation by small molecules. The regulation of GK activation by glucose may have an important implication for the discovery and design of GK activators as potential antidiabetic agents. 相似文献

Cooperativity with glucose is a key feature of human glucokinase (GK), allowing its crucial role as a glucose sensor in hepatic and pancreatic cells. We studied the changes in enzyme intrinsic tryptophan fluorescence induced by binding of different ligands to this monomeric enzyme using stopped-flow and equilibrium binding methods. Glucose binding data under pre-steady state conditions suggest that the free enzyme in solution is in a preexisting equilibrium between at least two conformers (super-open and open) which differ in their affinity for glucose (Kd* = 0.17 +/- 0.02 mM and Kd = 73 +/- 18 mM). Increasing the glucose concentration changes the ratio of the two conformers, thus yielding an apparent Kd of 3 mM (different from a Km of 7-10 mM). The rates of conformational transitions of free and GK complexed with sugar are slow and during catalysis are most likely affected by ATP binding, phosphate transfer, and product release steps to allow the kcat to be 60 s-1. The ATP analogue PNP-AMP binds to free GK (super-open) and GK-glucose (open) complexes with comparable affinities (Kd = 0.23 +/- 0.02 and 0.19 +/- 0.08 mM, respectively). However, cooperativity with PNP-AMP observed under equilibrium binding conditions in the presence of glucose (Hill slope of 1.6) is indicative of further complex tightening to the closed conformation. Another physiological modulator (inhibitor), palmitoyl-CoA, binds to GK with similar characteristics, suggesting that conformational changes induced upon ligand binding are not restricted by an active site ligand. In conclusion, our data support control of GK activity and Km through the ratio of distinct conformers (super-open, open, and closed) through either substrate or other ligand binding and/or dissociation. 相似文献

GK (glucokinase) is activated by glucose binding to its substrate site, is inhibited by GKRP (GK regulatory protein) and stimulated by GKAs (GK activator drugs). To explore further the mechanisms of these processes we studied pure recombinant human GK (normal enzyme and a selection of 31 mutants) using steady-state kinetics of the enzyme and TF (tryptophan fluorescence). TF studies of the normal binary GK-glucose complex corroborate recent crystallography studies showing that it exists in a closed conformation greatly different from the open conformation of the ligand-free structure, but indistinguishable from the ternary GK-glucose-GKA complex. GKAs did activate and GKRP did inhibit normal GK, whereas its TF was doubled by glucose saturation. However, the enzyme kinetics, GKRP inhibition, TF enhancement by glucose and responsiveness to GKA of the selected mutants varied greatly. Two predominant response patterns were identified accounting for nearly all mutants: (i) GK mutants with a normal or close to normal response to GKA, normally low basal TF (indicating an open conformation), some variability of kinetic parameters (k(cat), glucose S(0.5), h and ATP K(m)), but usually strong GKRP inhibition (13/31); and (ii) GK mutants that are refractory to GKAs, exhibit relatively high basal TF (indicating structural compaction and partial closure), usually show strongly enhanced catalytic activity primarily due to lowering of the glucose S(0.5), but with reduced or no GKRP inhibition in most cases (14/31). These results and those of previous studies are best explained by envisioning a common allosteric regulator region with spatially non-overlapping GKRP- and GKA-binding sites. 相似文献

Glucokinase (GK) is a key enzyme of glucose metabolism in liver and pancreatic beta-cells, and small molecule activators of GK (GKAs) are under evaluation for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. In liver, GK activity is controlled by the GK regulatory protein (GKRP), which forms an inhibitory complex with the enzyme. Here, we performed isothermal titration calorimetry and surface plasmon resonance experiments to characterize GK-GKRP binding and to study the influence that physiological and pharmacological effectors of GK have on the protein-protein interaction. In the presence of fructose-6-phosphate, GK-GKRP complex formation displayed a strong entropic driving force opposed by a large positive enthalpy; a negative change in heat capacity was observed (Kd = 45 nm, DeltaH = 15.6 kcal/mol, TDeltaS = 25.7 kcal/mol, DeltaCp = -354 cal mol(-1) K(-1)). With k(off) = 1.3 x 10(-2) s(-1), the complex dissociated quickly. The thermodynamic profile suggested a largely hydrophobic interaction. In addition, effects of pH and buffer demonstrated the coupled uptake of one proton and indicated an ionic contribution to binding. Glucose decreased the binding affinity between GK and GKRP. This decrease was potentiated by an ATP analogue. Prototypical GKAs of the amino-heteroaryl-amide type bound to GK in a glucose-dependent manner and impaired the association of GK with GKRP. This mechanism might contribute to the antidiabetic effects of GKAs. 相似文献

We investigated how glycerol, urea, glucose and a GKA influence kinetics and stability of wild-type and mutant GK. Glycerol and glucose stabilized GK additively. Glycerol barely affected the TF spectra of all GKs but decreased k(cat), glucose S(0.5) and K(D) values and ATP K(M) while leaving cooperativity unchanged. Glycerol sensitized all GKs to GKA as shown by TF. Glucose increased TF of GKs without influence of glycerol on the effect. Glycerol and GKA affected kinetics and binding additively. The activation energies for thermal denaturation of GK were a function of glucose with K(D)s of 3 and 1mM without and with glycerol, respectively. High urea denatured wild type GK reversibly at 20 and 60°C and urea treatment of irreversibly heat denatured GK allowed refolding as demonstrated by TF including glucose response. We concluded: Glycerol stabilizes GK indirectly without changing the folding structure of the apoenzyme, by restructuring the surface water of the protein, whereas glucose stabilizes GK directly by binding to its substrate site and inducing a compact conformation. Glucose or glycerol (alone or combined) is unable to prevent irreversible heat denaturation above 40°C. However, urea denatures GK reversibly even at 60°C by binding to the protein backbone and directly interacting with hydrophobic side chains. It prevents irreversible aggregation allowing complete refolding when urea is removed. This study establishes the foundation for exploring numerous instability mutants among the more than 600 variant GKs causing diabetes in animals and humans. 相似文献

Glucokinase (GK), a glucose sensor, maintains plasma glucose homeostasis via phosphorylation of glucose and is a potential therapeutic target for treating maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) and persistent hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia of infancy (PHHI). To characterize the catalytic mechanism of glucose phosphorylation by GK, we combined molecular modeling, molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) calculations, experimental mutagenesis and enzymatic kinetic analysis on both wild-type and mutated GK. Our three-dimensional (3D) model of the GK-Mg2+-ATP-glucose (GMAG) complex, is in agreement with a large number of mutagenesis data, and elucidates atomic information of the catalytic site in GK for glucose phosphorylation. A 10-ns MD simulation of the GMAG complex revealed that Lys169 plays a dominant role in glucose phosphorylation. This prediction was verified by experimental mutagenesis of GK (K169A) and enzymatic kinetic analyses of glucose phosphorylation. QM/MM calculations were further used to study the role of Lys169 in the catalytic mechanism of the glucose phosphorylation and we found that Lys169 enhances the binding of GK with both ATP and glucose by serving as a bridge between ATP and glucose. More importantly, Lys169 directly participates in the glucose phosphorylation as a general acid catalyst. Our findings provide mechanistic details of glucose phorphorylation catalyzed by GK, and are important for understanding the pathogenic mechanism of MODY. 相似文献

Glucose phosphorylation. Site-directed mutations which impair the catalytic function of hexokinase 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Recent studies from this and other laboratories have resulted in the cloning and sequencing of hexokinases from a variety of tissues including yeast, human kidney, rat brain, rat liver, and mouse hepatoma. Significantly, studies on the hepatoma enzyme conducted in this laboratory (Arora, K.K., Fanciulli, M., and Pedersen, P.L. (1990) J. Biol. Chem. 265, 6481-6488) resulted also in its overexpression in Escherichia coli in active form. We have now used site-directed mutagenesis for the first time in studies of hexokinase to evaluate the role of amino acid residues predicted to interact with either glucose or ATP. Four amino acid residues (Ser-603, Asp-657, Glu-708, and Glu-742) believed to interact with glucose were mutated to alanine or glycine, whereas a lysine residue (Lys-558) thought to be directly involved in binding ATP was mutated to either methionine or arginine. Of all the mutations in residues believed to interact with glucose, the Asp-657----Ala mutation is the most profound, reducing the hexokinase activity to a level less than 1% of the wild type. The relative Vmax values for Ser-603----Ala, Glu-708----Ala, and Glu-742----Ala enzymes are 6, 10, and 6.5%, respectively, of the wild-type enzyme. Glu-708 and Glu-742 mutations increase the apparent Km for glucose 50- and 14-fold, respectively, while the Ser-603----Ala mutation decreases the apparent Km for glucose 5-fold. At the putative ATP binding site, the relative Vmax for Lys-558----Arg and Lys-558----Met enzymes are 70 and 29%, respectively, of the wild-type enzyme with no changes in the apparent Km for glucose. No changes were observed in the apparent Km for ATP with any mutation. These results support the view that all 4 residues predicted to interact with glucose from earlier x-ray studies may play a role in binding and/or catalysis. The Asp-657 and Ser-603 residues may be involved in both, while Glu-708 and Glu-742 clearly contribute to binding but are not essential for catalysis. In contrast, Lys-558 appears to be essential neither for binding nor catalysis. 相似文献

The Na(+)-dependent or E1 stages of the Na,K-ATPase reaction require a few micromolar ATP, but submillimolar concentrations are needed to accelerate the K(+)-dependent or E2 half of the cycle. Here we use Co(NH(3))(4)ATP as a tool to study ATP sites in Na,K-ATPase. The analogue inactivates the K(+) phosphatase activity (an E2 partial reaction) and the Na,K-ATPase activity in parallel, whereas ATP-[(3)H]ADP exchange (an E1 reaction) is affected less or not at all. Although the inactivation occurs as a consequence of low affinity Co(NH(3))(4)ATP binding (K(D) approximately 0.4-0.6 mm), we can also measure high affinity equilibrium binding of Co(NH(3))(4)[(3)H]ATP (K(D) = 0.1 micro m) to the native enzyme. Crucially, we find that covalent enzyme modification with fluorescein isothiocyanate (which blocks E1 reactions) causes little or no effect on the affinity of the binding step preceding Co(NH(3))(4)ATP inactivation and only a 20% decrease in maximal inactivation rate. This suggests that fluorescein isothiocyanate and Co(NH(3))(4)ATP bind within different enzyme pockets. The Co(NH(3))(4)ATP enzyme was solubilized with C(12)E(8) to a homogeneous population of alphabeta protomers, as verified by analytical ultracentrifugation; the solubilization did not increase the Na,K-ATPase activity of the Co(NH(3))(4)ATP enzyme with respect to parallel controls. This was contrary to the expectation for a hypothetical (alphabeta)(2) membrane dimer with a single ATP site per protomer, with or without fast dimer/protomer equilibrium in detergent solution. Besides, the solubilized alphabeta protomer could be directly inactivated by Co(NH(3))(4)ATP, to less than 10% of the control Na,K-ATPase activity. This suggests that the inactivation must follow Co(NH(3))(4)ATP binding at a low affinity site in every protomeric unit, thus still allowing ATP and ADP access to phosphorylation and high affinity ATP sites. 相似文献

In order to understand the nature of ATP and L-glutamate binding to glutamine synthetase, and the involvement of Arg 339 and Arg 359 in catalysis, these amino acids were changed to cysteine via site-directed mutagenesis. Individual mutations (Arg-->Cys) at positions 339 and 359 led to a sharp drop in catalytic activity. Additionally, the Km values for the substrates ATP and glutamate were elevated substantially above the values for wild-type (WT) enzyme. Each cysteine was in turn chemically modified to an arginine "analog" to attempt to "rescue" catalytic activity by covalent modification; 2-chloroacetamidine (CA) (producing a thioether) and 2,2'-dithiobis (acetamidine)(DTBA) (producing a disulfide) were the reagents used to effect these chemical transformations. Upon reaction with CA, both R339C and R359C mutants showed a significant regain of catalytic activity (50% and 70% of WT, respectively) and a drop in Km value for ATP close to that for WT enzyme. With DTBA, chemically modified R339C had a greater kcat than WT glutamine synthetase, but chemically modified R359C only regained a small amount of activity. Modification with DTBA was quantitative for each mutant and each modified enzyme had similar Km values for both ATP and glutamate. The high catalytic activity of DTBA-modified R339C could be reversed to that of unmodified R339C by treatment with dithiothreitol, as expected for a modified enzyme containing a disulfide bond. Modification of each cysteine-containing mutant to a lysine "analog" was accomplished using 3-bromopropylamine (BPA).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

We have shown previously that the canine kidney Na+,K+ pump [Na+ + K+)-ATPase) reacts with the ATP affinity analog p-fluorosulfonylbenzoyladenosine (FSBA). At 20 degrees C, we find the time-course of this reaction to be that predicted for a first-order reaction accompanied by competing solvolysis of the reagent. The FSBA-inactivated (Na+ + K+)-ATPase retains the ability to move between the E1 and E2 conformations that predominate in Na+ and K+ medium, respectively. Therefore, FSBA reaction with the enzyme does not interfere significantly with either its alkali metal cation binding or its conformational freedom. The ability of ATP to influence the enzyme's conformation by binding to the high-affinity nucleotide site is decreased, however, in proportion to the degree of inhibition of enzyme activity by FSBA. In addition, the ability of the enzyme to shift from the E1 to the E2 conformation through the (ATP + Na+)-dependent phosphorylation cycle is inhibited by FSBA treatment, as shown by the decreased ability of these substrates to stimulate the K+-dependent p-nitrophenylphosphatase activity. Both of these effects are consistent with specific reaction of FSBA with the ATP binding site of the enzyme. An additional effect of FSBA treatment is that it causes loss of p-nitrophenylphosphatase activity, but to a lesser extent than (Na+ + K+)-ATPase or Na+-ATPase activity. Binding of p-nitrophenylphosphate to the enzyme is apparently unaffected by FSBA treatment, since the Km for p-nitrophenylphosphate is not changed. 相似文献

Combined mutation of "catalytic carboxylates" in both nucleotide binding domains (NBDs) of P-glycoprotein generates a conformation capable of tight binding of 8-azido-ADP (Sauna, Z. E., Müller, M., Peng, X. H., and Ambudkar, S. V. (2002) Biochemistry 41, 13989-14000). Here we characterized this conformation using pure mouse MDR3 P-glycoprotein and natural MgATP and MgADP. Mutants E552A/E1197A, E552Q/E1197Q, E552D/E1197D, and E552K/E1197K had low but real ATPase activity in the order Ala > Gln > Asp > Lys, emphasizing the requirement for Glu stereochemistry. Mutant E552A/E1197A bound MgATP and MgADP (1 mol/mol) with K(d) 9.2 and 92 microm, showed strong temperature sensitivity of MgATP binding and equal dissociation rates for MgATP and MgADP. With MgATP as the added ligand, 80% of bound nucleotide was in the form of ATP. None of these parameters was vanadate-sensitive. The other mutants showed lower stoichiometry of MgATP and MgADP binding, in the order Ala > Gln > Asp > Lys. We conclude that the E552A/E1197A mutation arrests the enzyme in a conformation, likely a stabilized NBD dimer, which occludes nucleotide, shows preferential binding of ATP, does not progress to a normal vanadate-sensitive transition state, but hydrolyzes ATP and releases ADP slowly. Impairment of turnover is primarily due to inability to form the normal transition state rather than to slow ADP release. The Gln, Asp, and Lys mutants are less effective at stabilizing the occluded nucleotide, putative dimeric NBD, conformation. We envisage that in wild-type the occluded nucleotide conformation occurs transiently after MgATP binds to both NBDs with associated dimerization, and before progression to the transition state. 相似文献

Human mitochondrial NAD(P)+-dependent malic enzyme is inhibited by ATP. The X-ray crystal structures have revealed that two ATP molecules occupy both the active and exo site of the enzyme, suggesting that ATP might act as an allosteric inhibitor of the enzyme. However, mutagenesis studies and kinetic evidences indicated that the catalytic activity of the enzyme is inhibited by ATP through a competitive inhibition mechanism in the active site and not in the exo site. Three amino acid residues, Arg165, Asn259, and Glu314, which are hydrogen-bonded with NAD+ or ATP, are chosen to characterize their possible roles on the inhibitory effect of ATP for the enzyme. Our kinetic data clearly demonstrate that Arg165 is essential for catalysis. The R165A enzyme had very low enzyme activity, and it was only slightly inhibited by ATP and not activated by fumarate. The values of K(m,NAD) and K(i,ATP) to both NAD+ and malate were elevated. Elimination of the guanidino side chain of R165 made the enzyme defective on the binding of NAD+ and ATP, and it caused the charge imbalance in the active site. These effects possibly caused the enzyme to malfunction on its catalytic power. The N259A enzyme was less inhibited by ATP but could be fully activated by fumarate at a similar extent compared with the wild-type enzyme. For the N259A enzyme, the value of K(i,ATP) to NAD+ but not to malate was elevated, indicating that the hydrogen bonding between ATP and the amide side chain of this residue is important for the binding stability of ATP. Removal of this side chain did not cause any harmful effect on the fumarate-induced activation of the enzyme. The E314A enzyme, however, was severely inhibited by ATP and only slightly activated by fumarate. The values of K(m,malate), K(m,NAD), and K(i,ATP) to both NAD+ and malate for E314A were reduced to about 2-7-folds compared with those of the wild-type enzyme. It can be concluded that mutation of Glu314 to Ala eliminated the repulsive effects between Glu314 and malate, NAD+, or ATP, and thus the binding affinities of malate, NAD+, and ATP in the active site of the enzyme were enhanced. 相似文献

Glycation of the Na,K-ATPase in vitro (formation of Schiff base with glucose followed by reduction with NaCNBH3) shows the presence of three classes of reactive amino groups that differentially affect catalysis and cation binding. Reaction in the absence of ATP results in irreversible inhibition of enzyme activity with a t1/2 of 53 min. This is due to modification of one class of amino groups that affect the catalytic domain of the enzyme. In the presence of ATP, glycation first results in a shift in the steady state kinetics of ATP hydrolysis from substrate activation to Michaelis-Menten kinetics accompanied by an increase in the apparent affinity for K+ in the p-nitrophenylphosphatase reaction. This change in kinetic properties occurs with a t1/2 of 9 min and results in the complete loss of K+ occlusion. Incorporation of glucose is into the catalytic subunit, remote from the N-terminal end. Apparent total inhibition of K+ occlusion occurs with a stoichiometry 0.8 mol of glucose incorporated per mol of enzyme. Therefore, there is a rapidly reacting amino group that affects the cation binding domain of the Na,K-ATPase. More slowly, with a t1/2 of 9 h, the ATP hydrolysis kinetics change from Michaelis-Menten to substrate inhibition without recovery of K+ occlusion, showing that, in the E1 conformation, there is a third, slower reacting class of amino groups in the Na,K-ATPase that affects low affinity nucleotide interaction with the catalytic subunit. 相似文献

To delineate better the reaction sequence of the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase and illuminate properties of the active site, kinetic data were fitted to specific quantitative models. For the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase reaction, double-reciprocal plots of velocity against ATP (in the millimolar range), with a series of fixed KCl concentrations, are nearly parallel, in accord with the ping pong kinetics of ATP binding at the low-affinity sites only after Pi release. However, contrary to requirements of usual formulations, Pi is not a competitor toward ATP. A new steady-state kinetic model accommodates these data quantitatively, requiring that under usual assay conditions most of the enzyme activity follows a sequence in which ATP adds after Pi release, but also requiring a minor alternative pathway with ATP adding after K+ binds but before Pi release. The fit to the data also reveals that Pi binds nearly as rapidly to E2 X K X ATP as to E2 X K, whereas ATP binds quite slowly to E2 X P X K: the site resembles a cul-de-sac with distal ATP and proximal Pi sites. For the K+-nitrophenyl phosphatase reaction also catalyzed by this enzyme, the apparent affinities for both substrate and Pi (as inhibitor) decrease with higher KCl concentrations, and both Pi and TNP-ATP appear to be competitive inhibitors toward substrate with 10 mM KCl but noncompetitive inhibitors with 1 mM KCl. These data are accommodated quantitatively by a steady-state model allowing cyclic hydrolytic activity without obligatory release of K+, and with exclusive binding of substrate vs. either Pi or TNP-ATP. The greater sensitivity of the phosphatase reaction to both Pi and arsenate is attributable to the weaker binding by the occluded-K+ enzyme form occurring in the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase reaction sequence. The steady-state models are consistent with cyclical interconversion of high- and low-affinity substrate sites accompanying E1/E2 transitions, with distortion to low-affinity sites altering not only affinity and route of access but also separating the adenine- and phosphate-binding regions, the latter serving in the E2 conformation as the active site for the phosphatase reaction. 相似文献

Demonstration of cooperating alpha subunits in working (Na+ + K+)-ATPase by the use of the MgATP complex analogue cobalt tetrammine ATP 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The MgATP complex analogue cobalt-tetrammine-ATP [Co(NH3)4ATP] inactivates (Na+ + K+)-ATPase at 37 degrees C slowly in the absence of univalent cations. This inactivation occurs concomitantly with incorporation of radioactivity from [alpha-32P]Co(NH3)4ATP and from [gamma-32P]Co(NH3)4ATP into the alpha subunit. The kinetics of inactivation are consistent with the formation of a dissociable complex of Co(NH3)4ATP with the enzyme (E) followed by the phosphorylation of the enzyme: (Formula: see text). The dissociation constant of the enzyme-MgATP analogue complex at 37 degrees C is Kd = 500 microM, the inactivation rate constant k2 = 0.05 min-1. ATP protects the enzyme against the inactivation by Co(NH3)4ATP due to binding at a site from which it dissociates with a Kd of 360 microM. It is concluded, therefore, that Co(NH3)4ATP binds to the low-affinity ATP binding site of the E2 conformational state. K+, Na+ and Mg2+ protect the enzyme against the inactivation by Co(NH3)4ATP. Whilst Na+ or Mg2+ decrease the inactivation rate constant k2, K+ exerts its protective effect by increasing the dissociation constant of the enzyme.Co(NH3)4ATP complex. The Co(NH3)4ATP-inactivated (Na+ + K+)-ATPase, in contrast to the non-inactivated enzyme, incorporates [3H]ouabain. This indicates that the Co(NH3)4ATP-inactivated enzyme is stabilized in the E2 conformational state. Despite the inactivation of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase by Co(NH3)4ATP from the low-affinity ATP binding site, there is no change in the capacity of the high-affinity ATP binding site (Kd = 0.9 microM) nor of its capability to phosphorylate the enzyme Na+-dependently. Since (Na+ + K+)-ATPase is phosphorylated Na+-dependently from the high-affinity ATP binding site although the catalytic cycle is arrested in the E2 conformational state by specific modification of the low-affinity ATP binding site, it is concluded that both ATP binding sites coexist at the same time in the working sodium pump. This demonstration of interacting catalytic subunits in the E1 and E2 conformational states excludes the proposal that a single catalytic subunit catalyzes (Na+ + K+)-transport. 相似文献

Treatment of renal Na,K-ATPase with N-acetylimidazole (NAI) results in loss of Na,K-ATPase activity. The inactivation kinetics can be described by a model in which two classes of sites are acetylated by NAI. The class I sites are rapidly reacting, the acetylation is prevented by the presence of ATP (K0.5 congruent to 8 microM), and the inactivation is reversed by incubation with hydroxylamine. These data suggest that the class I sites are tyrosine residues at the ATP binding site. The second class of sites are more slowly reacting, not protected by ATP, nor reversed by hydroxylamine treatment. These are probably lysine residues elsewhere in the protein. The associated K-stimulated p-nitrophenylphosphatase activity is inactivated by acetylation of the class II sites only; thus the tyrosine residues associated with ATP binding to the catalytic center are not essential for phosphatase activity. Inactivated enzyme no longer has high-affinity ATP binding associated with the catalytic site, although low-affinity ATP effects (inhibition of phosphatase and deocclusion of Rb) are still present. The inactivated enzyme can still be phosphorylated by Pi, occlude Rb+ ions, and undergo the major conformational transitions between the E1 Na and E2 K forms of the enzyme. Thus acetylation of the Na,K-ATPase by NAI inhibits high-affinity ATP binding to the catalytic center and produces inactivation. 相似文献
