A number of isomeric diacylglycerophosphocholines and diacylglycero sulfates containing O-acyl and/or S-acyl ester bonds were investigated as substrates for porcine pancreatic phospholipase A2 and its zymogen. A comparison is made with the kinetic properties of the enzyme toward the corresponding glycol detergents previously described [van Oort, M. G., Dijkman, R., Hille, J. D. R., & de Haas, G. H. (1985) Biochemistry (preceding paper in this issue)]. Hydrolysis of the secondary ester bond in the 1,2-diacylglycero-3-type lipids proceeds much faster than the splitting of the primary ester function present in the isomeric 1,3-diacylglycerol and 1-acylglycol derivatives. In sharp contrast to the glycol detergents, the substitution of the cleavable oxygen ester by a thio ester bond in the glycerol lipids results in 5 times lower kcat values. At alkaline pH and above the critical micelle concentration, the anionic sulfates are much better substrates than the corresponding phosphocholine-containing detergents. At very low detergent concentrations, below the critical micelle concentration, the anionic sulfates induce protein aggregation such that phospholipase A2, as well as its zymogen, is present in high molecular weight complexes containing several protein molecules. In these aggregates, protein-protein and/or lipid-protein interactions strongly activate phospholipase but not the zymogen.  相似文献

The enzymatic hydrolysis in vitro of the esters of methanol, ethylene glycol, glycerol, erythritol, pentaerythritol, adonitol, sorbitol, and sucrose in which all alcohol groups were esterified with oleic acid was studied. Various preparations of rat pancreatic juice, including pure lipase, were used as the sources of enzymes. Lipase (EC 3.1.1.3) did not hydrolyze compounds that contained more than three ester groups. Compounds containing four and five ester groups were hydrolyzed by certain preparations of pancreatic juice; this activity is attributed to the enzyme, nonspecific lipase. This enzyme also hydrolyzed esters of primary alcohols. The compounds containing six (sorbitol) and eight (sucrose) ester groups were not hydrolyzed.  相似文献

Using the classical emulsified system and the monomolecular film technique, we compared several interfacial properties of turkey pancreatic lipase (TPL) and human pancreatic lipase (HPL). TPL, like HPL, presented the interfacial activation phenomenon when vinyl ester was used as substrate. In the absence of colipase and bile salts, using tributyrin emulsion or monomolecular films of dicaprin at low surface pressure, TPL, unlike HPL, hydrolyzes pure tributyrin emulsion as well as dicaprin films maintained at low surface pressures. TPL was also able to hydrolyze triolein emulsion in the absence of any additive and despite the accumulation of long-chain free fatty acids at the interface. The difference of behaviors between TPL and HPL can be explained by the penetration power of each enzyme. The enzyme that presents the maximal pi(c) (TPL) interacts more efficiently with interfaces, and it is not denaturated at high interfacial energy. Turkey pancreatic lipase is more active on rac-dicaprin than HPL; a maximal ratio of 9 was found between the catalytic activities of the two lipases measured at their surface pressure optima (20 mN m(-1)). A kinetic study on the surface pressure dependency, stereospecificity, and regioselectivity of TPL was performed using enantiopure diglyceride (1,2-sn-dicaprin and 2,3-sn-dicaprin) and a prochiral isomer (1,3-dicaprin) that were spread as monomolecular films at the air-water interface. At low surface pressure (15 mN m(-1)), TPL acts preferentially on primary carboxylic ester groups of the diglyceride isomers (1,3-dicaprin), but at high surface pressure (23 mN m(-1)), this enzyme prefers both adjacent ester groups of the diglyceride isomers (1,2-sn-dicaprin and 2,3-sn-dicaprin). HPL prefers adjacent ester groups of the diglyceride isomers (1,2-sn-dicaprin and 2,3-sn-dicaprin). Furthermore, TPL was found to be markedly stereospecific for the sn-1 position of the 1,2-sn-enantiomer of dicaprin at low surface pressure (15 mN m(-1)), while at high surface pressure (23 mN m(-1)), this lipase presents a stereopreference for the sn-3 position of the 2,3-sn-enantiomer of dicaprin. HPL is stereospecific for the sn-1 position of the 1,2-sn-enantiomer of dicaprin both at 15 and 23 mN m(-1).  相似文献

The action of the phospholipases A2 (PLA2s) from Naja naja naja, Naja naja atra, and Crotalus atrox venoms as well as the enzyme from porcine pancreas on a number of short-chain, water-soluble substrates was studied. The inhibition of these enzymes by short-chain phosphonate- and thiophosphonate-containing phospholipid analogues was also examined. The kinetic patterns observed for the action of the venom PLA2s on substrates containing phosphocholine head groups all deviated from a classical Michaelis-Menten-type behavior. With a substrate containing an anionic head group, the kinetic pattern observed was more normal. In contrast, Michaelis-Menten-type behavior was observed for the action of the porcine pancreatic PLA2 acting on all of the substrates studied. A short-chain phospholipid analogue in which the enzyme-susceptible ester was replaced with a phosphonate group was found to be a tight-binding inhibitor of the venom PLA2s with IC50 values that were some 10(4)-10(5)-fold lower than the concentration of substrate used in the assay. The degree of inhibition was found to depend dramatically on the stereochemical arrangement of substituents in the inhibitor which strongly suggests that the inhibitors are binding directly to the active site of the PLA2s. By comparison, the phosphonate analogue functioned as a poor inhibitor of the porcine pancreatic PLA2. Direct inhibitor binding studies indicated that the short-chain phosphonate inhibitor bound weakly to the venom enzymes in the absence of the short-chain substrates. Several other unusual features of the inhibition were also observed. The data are interpreted in terms of a model in which the enzyme and substrate form a lipid-protein aggregate at substrate concentrations below the critical micelle concentration (cmc). Possible reasons for the selective binding of the inhibitor to the enzyme-substrate microaggregate are discussed.  相似文献

Models of membrane systems containing immobilized glucose oxidase and catalase operating together or independently have been developed. A rotated disk electrode apparatus was employed with novel electrochemical operating conditions to experimentally determine mass transfer and intrinsic kinetic parameters of enzyme-containing membranes. The value of a mass transfer parameter that describes internal and external diffusion was first determined under conditions that do not permit the enzyme reactions. In a subsequent experiment with the reaction allowed, kinetic parameters corresponding to the intrinsic maximal velocity and Michaelis constants of the immobilized enzymes were estimated by regression analysis of data based on an appropriate two- or three- parameter model. It was found that immobilization reduced the maximal intrinsic velocity but had no detectable effect on the Michaelis constants. In all but one case- these methods for membrane characterization are nondestructive and can be used repeatedly on a given membrane. These techniques provide the means for quantitative comparisons of immobilization methods and make possible temporal studies of immobilized enzyme inactivation.  相似文献

Cholesterol ester hydrolase (sterol-ester acylhydrolase, EC 3.1.1.13) was purified from human pancreatic tissue by column chromatography and acetone precipitation, leading to a 400-fold enrichment. Isoelectric focusing of this product reveals a double-band at pH 4.5 and 4.6. The molecular weight was estimated at 320 kDa by means of Sephadex filtration on calibrated columns. Obviously these large molecules represent a tetrameric form of the monomeric subunit (molecular mass 76-80 kDa), which is also enzymatically active. It was found together with the dimeric form in pancreatic juice, where the tetrameric enzyme is responsible for the major part of the hydrolytic activity, splitting cholesterol ester as well as synthetic substrates, such as fluorescein or p-nitrophenyl esters. Attempts to split the tetrameric cholesterol ester hydrolase, isolated from pancreatic tissue, into active subunits found additionally in pancreatic juice by the influence of bile acids and proteolytic enzymes failed. The spectral shift method using Rhodamine fluorescence was employed in order to prove that fluorescein dilaurate forms micellar solutions and mixed micelles when bile salts are present.  相似文献

A depeptide synthesis was drastically influenced by the reaction temperature, in the range from -30 degrees to 25 degrees C. This article shows the kinetic reasons of this effect. alpha-Chymotrypsin was immobilized on celite and used in four different water-miscible solvents containing small amounts of water-miscible solvents containing small amounts of water. The reaction studied was the aminolysis of N-acetyl-L-phenylalanine ethyl ester (Ac-PheOEt) with L-alaninamide (Ala-NH(2)) and water for the acylenzyme complex, the nucleophile was favoured by low reaction temperatures. This effect (quantified as p-values) was observed in all four solvents, and it was greatest in acetonitrile and tetrahydrofuran. The esterase and amidase activities of the enzyme were studies using AcPheOEt and N-acetyl-L-phenylalanyl-L-ananinamide (AcPheAla-NH(2)) as substrates. The Michaelis-Menten parameters, K(m,app) and V(max), were determined for ester hydrolysis and dipeptide hydrolysis. Both K(m,app) and V(max) tended to increase with increasing temperature. Secondary hydrolysis was reduced at subzero temperatures because ester hydrolysis was favoured in relation to depeptide hydrolysis. Depeptide synthesis was thus favored by low temperatures in two ways: first, in the competition between the nucleophile and water for the acyl enzyme; and, second, in the competition between the ester substrate and the peptide substrate for the free enzyme. As a result, in acetonitrile containing 10% water, the maximal yield was 99% at -20%C compared with 84% at 25 degrees C. (c) 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.  相似文献

Regulation of protein phosphorylation in isolated pancreatic acini by the intracellular messengers Ca2+ and diacylglycerol was studied by using the Ca2+ ionophore A23187 and the tumour-promoting phorbol ester 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate. As assessed by two-dimensional polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis, the phorbol ester (1 microM) and Ca2+ ionophore (2 microM) altered the phosphorylation of distinct sets of proteins between Mr 83,000 and 23,000 in mouse and guinea-pig acini. The phorbol ester increased the phosphorylation of four proteins, whereas the ionophore increased the phosphorylation of two proteins and, in mouse acini, decreased the phosphorylation of one other protein. In addition, the phorbol ester and ionophore each caused the dephosphorylation of two proteins, of Mr 20,000 and 20,500. Administered together, these agents reproduced the changes in phosphorylation induced by the cholinergic agonist carbamoylcholine. The effects of the phorbol ester and ionophore on acinar amylase release were also studied. In mouse pancreatic acini, a maximally effective concentration of phorbol ester (1 microM) produced a secretory response that was only 28% of that produced by a maximally effective concentration of carbamoylcholine, whereas the ionophore (0.3 microM) stimulated amylase release to two-thirds of the maximal response to carbamoylcholine. In contrast, in guinea-pig acini, the phorbol ester and carbamoylcholine evoked similar maximal secretory responses, whereas the maximal secretory response to the ionophore was only 35% of that to carbamoylcholine. Combination of phorbol ester and ionophore resulted in a modest synergistic effect on amylase release in both species. It is concluded that cholinergic agonists act via both diacylglycerol and Ca2+ to regulate pancreatic protein phosphorylation, but that synergism between these intracellular messengers is of limited importance in stimulating enzyme secretion.  相似文献

(Acyloxy)methyl ketones, of general structure Z-[AA2]-[AA1]-CH2OCOAr, are potent inactivators of the cysteine proteinase cathepsin B. These reagents have been designed as affinity labels in which the dipeptidyl moiety serves as an affinity group (complementary to the S1 and S2 sites of the enzyme), while the (acyloxy)methyl ketone unit (-COCH2OCOR), containing a weak leaving group in the form of a carboxylate nucleofuge, functions as the potentially reactive entity that labels the enzyme. The inhibition is time dependent, active site directed, and irreversible. The apparent second-order rate constant kinact/Kinact, which characterizes the inhibition of cathepsin B by this series, spans several orders of magnitude and in certain cases exceeds 10(6) M-1 s-1. The activity of this series of inhibitors was found to be exquisitely sensitive to the nature of the carboxylate leaving group as well as the affinity group. A strong dependence of second-order inactivation rate on leaving group pKa was uncovered for Z-Phe-Ala (acyloxy)methyl ketones [log(k/K) = 1.1 (+/- 0.1) X pKa + 7.2 (+/- 0.4); r2 = 0.82, n = 26]. Heretofore in constructing affinity labels the choice of leaving group was quite restricted. The aryl carboxylate group thus offers considerable variation as a design element in that both its binding affinity and reactivity can be controlled by substituent effects. Specific peptidyl (acyloxy)methyl ketones thus represent prime examples of highly potent, chemically stable enzyme inhibitors with variable structural elements in both the affinity and departing groups.  相似文献

The kinetic properties of a continuous enzyme reactor containing rabbit muscle lactate dehydrogenase, horse liver alcohol dehydrogenase and poly(ethylene glycol)-bound NAD (PEG-NAD) were investigated experimentally and theoretically. The enzymes and PEG-NAD were retained in the reactor with an ultrafiltration membrane, and the substrates (pyruvate and ethanol) were fed continuously. The reactions of the dehydrogenases were coupled by the recycling of the cofactor. The steady-state concentration of L-lactate, one of the products, was measured under different experimental conditions and compared with the corresponding theoretical value. The theoretical value was calculated based on a simplified ordered bi-bi mechanism for the individual enzyme reactions, of which kinetic constants were determined by independent kinetic studies. Differences were found between the kinetic constants of the enzymes for NAD(H) and PEG-NAD(H). The steady-state values obtained by continuous operation were lower than those calculated, possibly due to the simplification made for the kinetic model; but there was general agreement between them in the dependence on the experimental conditions. The steady-state behavior of the enzyme reactor was explained semi-quantitatively by the simple kinetic model.  相似文献

Initial rates of peptide-bond synthesis catalyzed by poly(ethylene glycol)-modified chymotrypsin in benzene were determined using high-performance liquid chromatography. Enzymatic synthesis of N-benzoyl-L-tyrosyl-L-phenylalanine amide from N-benzoyl-L-tyrosine ethyl ester and L-phenylalanine amide was found to obey Michaelis-Menten kinetics an to be consistent with a ping-pong mechanism modified by a hydrolytic branch. The catalytic activity of modified chymotrypsin was dependent on both water concentration and type of organic solvent, the highest synthesis rate being obtained in toluene. Since the chymotrypsin specificity in the organic phase was actually altered, the enzyme's apparent kinetic parameters were determined for different substrates and compared to those obtained with other serine proteases in benzene. Both N-benzoyl-L-tyrosine ethyl ester and N-alpha-benzoyl-L-lysine methyl ester were comparable acyl donors in benzene and the (kcat/Km)app value of modified chymotrypsin was only 10-fold smaller than that obtained with poly(ethylene glycol)-modified trypsin in the synthesis of N-alpha-benzoyl-L-lysyl-L-phenylalanine amide. The change in chymotrypsin specificity was also confirmed through the binding of trypsin inhibitors in benzene. The overall results suggest that hydrophobic bonding between the enzyme and its substrate should not be taken into account during catalysis in the organic phase. In general, if hydrophobic interactions are involved in the binding of substrates to the active site in aqueous media, the replacement of water by hydrophobic solvents will induce some change in enzyme specificity. Moreover, secondary residues of enzyme-binding sites may also exert a significant influence on specificity since, as observed in this study, chymotrypsin exhibited high affinity for cationic substrates and cationic inhibitors as well in apolar solvents.  相似文献

A heat-stable lipase from Pseudomonas glumae was purified to homogeneity. Its positional and stereospecific properties were investigated and compared with those of the well-known porcine pancreatic lipase. The kinetic properties of both enzymes were determined by use of six isomeric synthetic pseudoglycerides all composed of a single hydrolyzable fatty acyl ester bond and two lipase-resistant groups: one acylamino and one ether function. Two enzyme assay techniques were applied: a detergent-free system, the monomolecular surface film technique, and the pH-stat technique using clear micellar solutions of substrate in the presence of Triton X-100. Regarding the cleavage of primary ester bonds, P. glumae lipase possesses no stereopreference. In contrast, a large stereopreference in favor of the R-isomer is found for the hydrolysis of secondary ester bonds. Secondary ester bonds are efficiently cleaved by the lipase, which makes it of potential interest for enzymatic synthetic purposes. For the hydrolysis of this R-isomer a correlation between the experimental catalytic turnover rate and the binding constant for micelles was observed. The kinetic data of P. glumae lipase have been analyzed in terms of the scooting and hopping models for the action of lipolytic enzymes [Upreti, G.C., & Jain, M.K. (1980) J. Membr. Biol. 55, 113-121]. The results presented in this study are best explained by assuming that glumae lipase leaves the interface after a limited number of catalytic cycles.  相似文献

The ability of cholesterol esterase to catalyze the synthesis of cholesterol esters has been considered to be of limited physiological significance because of its bile salt requirements for activity, though detailed kinetic studies have not been reported. This study was performed to determine the taurocholate, pH, and substrate requirements for optimal cholesterol ester synthesis catalyzed by various pancreatic lipolytic enzymes, including the bovine 67- and 72-kDa cholesterol esterases, human 100-kDa cholesterol esterase, and human 52-kDa triglyceride lipase. In contrast to current beliefs, cholesterol esterase exhibits a bile salt independent as well as a bile salt dependent synthetic pathway. For the bovine pancreatic 67- and 72-kDa cholesterol esterases, the bile salt independent pathway is optimal at pH 6.0-6.5 and is stimulated by micromolar concentrations of taurocholate. For the bile salt dependent synthetic reaction for the 67-kDa enzyme, increasing the taurocholate concentration from 0 to 1.0 mM results in a progressive shift in the pH optimum from pH 6.0-6.5 to pH 4.5 or lower. In contrast, cholesterol ester hydrolysis by the 67-, 72-, and 100-kDa enzymes was characterized by pH optima from 5.5 to 6.5 at all taurocholate concentrations. Optimum hydrolytic activity for these three enzyme forms occurred with 10 mM taurocholate. Since hydrolysis is minimal at low taurocholate concentrations, the rate of synthesis actually exceeds hydrolysis when the taurocholate concentration is less than 1.0 mM. The 52-kDa enzyme exhibits very low cholesterol ester synthetic and hydrolytic activities, and for this enzyme both activities are bile salt independent. Thus, our data show that cholesterol esterase has both bile salt independent and bile salt dependent cholesterol ester synthetic activities and that it may catalyze the net synthesis of cholesterol esters under physiological conditions.  相似文献

Incorporation of the photoisomerizable amino acid phenylazophenylalanine (PAP) into enzyme structures has been proposed as a strategy for photoswitching enzyme activity. To evaluate the strengths and limitations of this approach to enzyme photo-control, we performed a kinetic analysis of RNase S analogues containing PAP in positions 4, 7, 8, 10, 11 or 13. For an enzyme containing a single PAP group, the maximum extent of photoconversion (between approximately 96% trans/4% cis and 10% trans/90% cis under standard conditions) sets a limit on the maximum fold change in the initial rate of approximately 25-fold, if the cis form is the more active isomer, and approximately 10-fold if the trans form is more active. This extent of photoswitching was not realized in the present case because the effects of photoisomerization on kinetic constants were small and distributed among effects on S-peptide binding, substrate binding and the rate of the chemical step. These results suggest that photoisomerization could substantially alter enzyme kinetic constants but that a directed combinatorial approach might be required for realizing maximal photo-control in such systems. The limit set by the extent of photoconversion might be overcome by coupling multiple PAP groups to one enzyme or by altering the behaviour of a system that required oligomerization for activity.  相似文献

A series of 14 4-nitroanilide substrates and 17 thioester substrates have been used to measure kinetic constants with porcine pancreatic kallikrein. All of the substrates have a P1 arginine residue. The 4-nitroanilide substrates consist of seven P2-glycine and seven P2-phenylalanine tripeptides. As expected from previous results, the phenylalanine series substrates were generally 100-fold 'better' than those in the glycine series. The S3 subsite was found to 'prefer' lysine or phenylalanine, whereas glutamic acid in this position was distinctly unfavourable. The thioester substrates consisted of various thioester derivatives of arginine as well as 12 dipeptides. These substrates exhibited kcat./Km values generally 1000 times higher than the P2-phenylalanine 4-nitroanilides. With the thioesters, a P2 phenylalanine or tryptophan residue yielded the best substrates, but some of the simple derivatives of arginine were nearly as good. A comparison of the kinetic constants of the thioester substrates between the porcine enzyme and human plasma kallikrein provides further evidence that these enzymes have a similar preference for bulky P2 residues, but otherwise are quite different enzymes. The thioester substrates are nearly as reactive as oxygen ester substrates such as acetylphenylalanylarginine methyl ester for the porcine enzyme [Levison & Tomalin (1982) Biochem. J. 203, 299-302; Fiedler (1983) Adv. Exp. Med. Biol. 156A, 263-274], and owing to the greater ease in assaying with the thioesters, they should find use in routine assays for the glandular kallikreins.  相似文献

The relative rates of hydrolysis of the secondary ester in glycerol 1,3-benzylidene 2-oleate and in glycerol 1,3-dihexadecyl ether 2-oleate, and of the primary and secondary esters in triolein were determined. Both unaltered and selectively inactivated rat pancreatic juice were used as sources of enzyme. It was found that rat pancreatic juice contains an enzyme that can hydrolyze fatty acids esterified at the 2-position of a glyceride. This enzyme is not pancreatic lipase. It may be sterol ester hydrolase. Partial glycerides, as well as complete glycerides, can serve as substrates. Pancreatic lipase, if it can hydrolyze the 2-positioned fatty acids of a triglyceride, does so at a very slow rate.  相似文献

Some kinetic properties of the microsomal cholesterol ester hydrolase (CEH) have been examined in rat liver. The reaction was linear with time up to 60 min and with enzyme concentration up to 0.3 mg/mL, and a pH optimum of 6.7 for enzyme activity was observed. Cholesterol esterase exhibited the following apparent kinetic constants: Km, 68.88 microM and Vmax, 33 Units/mg protein. Cholesteryl palmitate was hydrolyzed to a much greater extent than cholesteryl oleate by the enzyme. Product inhibition with cholesterol and palmitic acid was not apparent; however, oleic acid added to the system reduced markedly microsomal CEH activity. The present paper also reports the solubilization of cholesteryl palmitate hydrolase from the microsomal fraction by pretreating it with Triton X-100, sodium deoxycholate, and sodium dodecylsulfate. All ionic and non-ionic detergents tested are capable of making the enzyme soluble, and maximal effects were found at higher concentrations of detergents although the esterase activity was strongly inhibited. Triton X-100 was found to be more effective than sodium deoxycholate and sodium dodecylsulfate in enzyme and protein solubilization. When the direct effects of detergents on CEH activity were studied, progressive concentration-dependent inhibitions were observed.  相似文献

Immobilization of alpha-chymotrypsin on magnetic particles with stable coat with titanium oxides as a main constituent allowed the biocatalytic system to be quickly and qualitatively separated into the components after completion of the enzymatic reaction. X-ray phase analysis demonstrated that the coat of magnetic particles is composed mainly of titanium dioxide in brookite modification. The maximal capacity of the particles amounted to 0.3 mg protein/mg particles. It was demonstrated that the reaction catalyzed by immobilized alpha-chymotrypsin proceeds in a kinetic mechanism due to a high dispersion of the ferromagnetic particles. The catalytic constant (25 s-1) and KM (0.17 mM) for the immobilized enzyme for the hydrolysis of N-acetyl-L-tyrosine ethyl ester are comparable to the corresponding characteristics for the free enzyme.  相似文献

Immunocytochemistry and subcellular fractionation were used to localize the cholesterol ester hydrolase in the human small intestine. A positive immunoreaction, when using antibodies directed against pancreatic cholesterol ester hydrolase, was mainly found in endocytotic vesicles. Moreover, a label by gold particles was observed in intercellular spaces where lymphatic tissue merges. No specific immunoreactivity was obtained with the mucosa when sera directed against human pancreatic chymotrypsinogen and human pancreatic lipase were used. Conventional subcellular fractionation was performed after extensive washing of enterocytes to rule out any possible contamination by pancreatic enzymes. In these conditions a bile salt-dependent cholesterol ester hydrolase activity was detected in the soluble fraction of cells. Data agree with the concept that the intestinal cholesterol ester hydrolase may have a pancreatic origin. The absorption, if any, of this enzyme by enterocytes seems specific since other pancreatic (pro)enzymes tested (lipase, chymotrypsinogen) are not detected in these cells.  相似文献

The reaction mechanism of carboxypeptidase Y catalyzed reactions is investigated. Presteady state and steady state kinetic measurements are performed on the hydrolysis and aminolysis of an ester and an amide substrate. It is found that deacylation is the rate determining step in hydrolysis of the ester, pivalic acid 4-nitrophenol and acylation in that of the amide, succinyl-L-alanyl-L-alalyl-L-propyl-L-phenylalanine 4-nitroanilide.

The kinetic effects observed in the presence of a nucleophile, L-valine amide, where aminolysis occurs in parallel to the hydrolysis reaction are analysed in details. The results are described satisfactorily by a reaction scheme which involves the binding of the added nucleophile, (i) to the free enzyme, resulting in a simple competitive effect, and (ii) to the acyl-enzyme with the formation of a complex between the enzyme and the aminolysis product, the dissociation of which is rate determining. That scheme can account for both increases and decreases of kinetic parameter values as a function of the nucleophile concentration. There is no indication of binding of the nucleophile to the enzyme-substrate complex before acylation takes place.  相似文献
