The pH dependence of the kinetic parameters and primary deuterium isotope effects have been determined for tyrosine phenol-lyase from both Erwinia herbicola and Citrobacter freundii. The primary deuterium isotope effects indicate that proton abstraction from the 2-position of the substrate is partially rate-limiting for both enzymes. The C. freundii enzyme primary deuterium isotope effects [DV = 3.5 and D(V/Ktyr) = 2.5] are pH independent, indicating that tyrosine is not sticky (i.e., does not dissociate slower than it reacts to give products). Since Vmax for both tyrosine and the alternate substrate S-methyl-L-cysteine is also pH independent, substrate binds only to the correctly protonated form of the enzyme. For the E. herbicola enzyme, both Vmax and V/K for tyrosine or S-methyl-L-cysteine are pH dependent, as well as both DV and D(V/Ktyr). Thus, while both the protonated and unprotonated enzyme can bind substrate, and may be interconverted directly, only the unprotonated Michaelis complex is catalytically competent. At pH 9.5, DV = 2.5 and D(V/Ktyr) = 1.5. However, at pH 6.4 the isotope effect on both parameters is equal to 4.1. From these data, the forward commitment factor (cf = 5.2) and catalytic ratio (cvf = 1.1) for tyrosine and S-methyl-L-cysteine (cf = 2.2, cvf = 24) are calculated. Also, the Michaelis complex partition ratio (cf/cvf) for substrate and products is calculated to be 4.7 for tyrosine and 0.1 for S-methyl-L-cysteine.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The enzyme 3-methylaspartate ammonia-lyase (EC 4.3.1.2) catalyzes the exchange of the C-3 hydrogen of the substrate, (2S,3S)-3-methylaspartic acid, with solvent hydrogen. The mechanism of the exchange reaction was probed using (2S,3S)-3-methylaspartic acid and its C-3-deuteriated isotopomer. Incubations conducted in tritiated water allowed the rate of protium or deuterium wash-out from the substrates to be measured as tritium wash-in. The primary deuterium isotope effects for the exchange under essentially Vmax conditions ( [S] much greater than Km) were 1.6, 1.5, and 1.5 at pH 9.0, 7.6, and 6.5. The deamination reaction, measured spectrophotometrically on the same incubations, showed isotope effects of 1.7, 1.6, and 1.4 at pH 9.0, 7.6, and 6.5, in agreement with the values of DV and D(V/K) reported previously [Botting, N.P., Akhtar, M., Cohen, M.A., & Gani, D. (1988) Biochemistry 27, 2956-2959]. The ratio of the rate of exchange to the rate of deamination, however, varied widely with pH. Together with the identical values of the primary isotope effects for the two reactions, this result indicates that the partition between reaction pathways occurs after the slowest steps in the common part of the reaction coordinate pathway, almost certainly after the cleavage of the C-N bond at the level of the enzyme-ammonia-mesaconic acid complex, and not at the putative carbanion level as was previously suggested. The enzyme requires both K+ and Mg2+ ions for activity, although ammonium ion is also able to bind in the K+ site and act as an activator. Variation of the metal ion concentration alters the magnitude of the primary deuterium isotope effects. The variation of potassium ion concentration causes the most marked changes: at 1.6 mM K+, DV and D(V/K) are 1.7, whereas at 50 mM K+, DV and D(V/K) are reduced to 1.0. The isotope effects are also reduced at low K+ concentration due to the emergence of a slow-acting high K+ affinity monopotassium form of the enzyme. The binding order and role of the metal ion cofactors and their influence in determining the formal mechanism of the reaction is discussed, and the failure of previous workers to observe primary deuterium isotope effects for the deamination process is explained. The product desorption order was tested by product inhibition, alternative product inhibition, and isotope exchange experiments. Ammonia and mesaconic acid debind in a random fashion.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献

Fern L-methionine decarboxylase: kinetics and mechanism of decarboxylation and abortive transamination 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
L-Methionine decarboxylase from Dryopteris filix-mas catalyzes the decarboxylation of L-methionine and a range of straight- and branched-chain L-amino acids to give the corresponding amine products. The deuterium solvent isotope effects for the decarboxylation of (2S)-methionine are D(V/K) = 6.5 and DV = 2.3, for (2S)-valine are D(V/K) = 1.9 and DV = 2.6, and for (2S)-leucine are D(V/K) = 2.5 and DV = 1.0 at pL 5.5. At pL 6.0 and above, where the value of kcat for all of the substrates is low, the solvent isotope effects on Vmax for methionine are 1.1-1.2 whereas the effects on V/K remain unchanged, indicating that the solvent-sensitive transition state occurs before the first irreversible step, carbon dioxide desorption. The enzyme also catalyzes an abortive decarboxylation-transamination reaction in which the coenzyme is converted to pyridoxamine phosphate [Stevenson, D. E., Akhtar, M., & Gani, D. (1990a) Biochemistry (first paper of three in this issue)]. At very high concentration, the product amine can promote transamination of the coenzyme. However, the reaction occurs infrequently and does not influence the partitioning between decarboxylation and substrate-mediated abortive transamination under steady-state turnover conditions. The partition ratio, normal catalytic versus abortive events, can be determined from the amount of substrate consumed by a known amount of enzyme at infinite time, and the rate of inactivation can be determined by measuring the decrease in enzyme activity with respect to time. For methionine, the values of Km as determined from double-reciprocal plots of concentration versus inactivation rate are the same as those calculated from initial catalytic (decarboxylation) rate data, indicating that a single common intermediate partitions between product formation and slow transamination. The partition ratio is sensitive to changes in pH and is also dependent upon the structure of the substrate; methionine causes less frequent inactivation than either valine or leucine. The pH dependence of the partition ratio with methionine as substrate is very similar to that for V/K. Both curves show a sharp increase at approximately pH 6.25, indicating that a catalytic group on the enzyme simultaneously suppresses the abortive reaction and enhances physiological reaction in its unprotonated state. Experiments conducted in deuterium oxide allowed the solvent isotope effects for the partition ratio and the abortive reaction to be determined.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献

The pH dependence of the kinetic parameters V, V/KNADH, and V/KH2O2 has been determined for the flavoenzyme NADH peroxidase. Both V/KNADH and V/KH2O2 decrease as groups exhibiting pK's of 9.2 and 9.9, respectively, are deprotonated. The V profile decreases by a factor of 5 as a group exhibiting a pK of 7.2 is deprotonated. Primary deuterium kinetic isotope effects on NADH oxidation are observed on V only, and the magnitude of DV is independent of H2O2 concentration at pH 7.5. DV/KNADH is pH independent and equal to 1.0 between pH 6 and pH 9.5, but DV is pH dependent, decreasing from a value of 7.2 at pH 5.5 to 1.9 at pH 9.5. The shape of the DV versus pH profile parallels that observed in the V profile and yields a similar pK of 6.6 for the group whose deprotonation decreases DV. Solvent kinetic isotope effects obtained with NADH or reduced nicotinamide hypoxanthine dinucleotide as the variable substrate are observed on V only, while equivalent solvent kinetic isotope effects on V and V/K are observed when H2O2 is used as the variable substrate. In all cases linear proton inventories are observed. Primary deuterium kinetic isotope effects on V for NADH oxidation decrease as the solvent isotopic composition is changed from H2O to D2O. These data are consistent with a change in the rate-limiting step from a step in the reductive half-reaction at low pH to a step in the oxidative half-reaction at high pH. Analysis of the multiple kinetic isotope effect data suggests that at high D2O concentrations the rate of a single proton transfer step in the oxidative half-reaction is slowed. These data are used to propose a chemical mechanism involving the pH-dependent protonation of a flavin hydroxide anion, following flavin peroxide bond cleavage. 相似文献

Primary deuterium kinetic isotope and pH effects on the reduction of D-amino acid oxidase by amino acid substrates were determined using steady-state and rapid reaction methods. With D-serine as substrate, reduction of the enzyme-bound FAD requires that a group with a pKa value of 8.7 be unprotonated and that a group with a pKa value of 10.7 be protonated. The DV/Kser value of 4.5 is pH-independent, establishing that these pKa values are intrinsic. The limiting rate of reduction of the enzyme shows a kinetic isotope effect of 4.75, consistent with this as the intrinsic value. At high enzyme concentration (approximately 15 microM) at pH 9,D-serine is slightly sticky (k3/k2 = 0.8), consistent with a decrease in the rate of substrate dissociation. With D-alanine as substrate, the pKa values are perturbed to 8.1 and 11.5. The DV/Kala value increases from 1.3 at pH 9.5 to 5.1 at pH 4, establishing that D-alanine is sticky with a forward commitment of approximately 10. The effect of pH on the DV/Kala value is consistent with a model in which exchange with solvent of the proton from the group with pKa 8.7 is hindered and is catalyzed by H2O and OH- above pH 7 and by H3O+ and H2O below pH 7. With glycine, the pH optimum is shifted to a more basic value, 10.3. The DV/Kgly value increases from 1.26 at pH 6.5 to 3.1 at pH 10.7, consistent with fully reversible CH bond cleavage followed by a pH-dependent step. At pH 10.5, the kinetic isotope effect on the limiting rate of reduction is 3.4. 相似文献

The effect of pH on the kinetics of sialidase purified from influenza virus (A/Tokyo/3/67, H2N2) was investigated. A pK of 9.0 for inhibition of the enzyme by three competitive inhibitors, due to an ionisable group in the active site, was observed. A similar pK was observed for V/Km for the fluorogenic substrate 2-(4-methylumbelliferyl)-N-acetyl-alpha-D-neuraminic acid. However, the shape of the V/Km profile indicates that this substrate is sticky. Solvent perturbation experiments indicated that the observed ionisable active site group is likely to be a cationic amino acid. The results provide evidence against the hypothesis that Glu 276 acts as a proton donor in the enzyme reaction and supports the proposal of a role for one of the active site cationic amino acids in binding and catalysis. 相似文献

Mechanistic studies with deuterated dihydroorotates on the dihydroorotate oxidase from Crithidia fasciculata 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Deuterium-labeled dihydroorotates bearing one, two, or three deuteriums at the pair of C4 and C5 positions have been synthesized in high isotopic and chiral purity and characterized by NMR and mass spectroscopy. These substrates have been used with the FMN-containing biosynthetic dihydroorotate oxidase from Crithidia fasciculata [Pascal, R., Trang, N., Cerami, A., & Walsh, C. (1983) Biochemistry 22, 171] to probe stereochemistry and mechanism. At pH 6.0 the (4RS)-[5,5-2H2]dihydroorotate shows a Vmax isotope effect (DV) of 2.83; since the (4S,5R)-[5-2H]dihydroorotate shows a DV of no more than 1.1, a secondary effect, the overall stereochemistry of desaturation is anti as previously reported for the degradative orotate reductase from Clostridium oroticum. The (4RS)-[4-2H]dihydroorotate shows a DV of 2.97, indicating removal of the C4-H is also partially rate limiting at pH 6.0. When trideuterio (4RS)-[4,5,5-2H3]dihydroorotate was tested, a DV of 8.0, a value close to the product of the separate isotope effects at the 4- and 5S-positions, was observed. At this pH then, both C-H cleavage steps are partly rate limiting in catalysis. Under anaerobic conditions without an electron acceptor the enzyme catalyzes the preferential exchange of the 5S hydrogen with solvent protons. The aggregate isotope effects on Vmax (DV) and on Vmax/Km [D(V/K)] are analyzed and suggest a stepwise rather than a concerted mechanism for this biosynthetic desaturation in pyrimidine biosynthesis. 相似文献

We have measured the 13C kinetic isotope effect at pH 4.0, 5.0, 6.0, and 6.5 and in D2O at pD 5.0 and the rate of D-H exchange of the alpha and beta protons of aspartic acid in D2O at pD 5.0 for the reaction catalyzed by the enzyme aspartate beta-decarboxylase from Alcaligenes faecalis. The 13C kinetic isotope effect, with a value of 1.0099 +/- 0.0002 at pH 5.0, is less than the intrinsic isotope effect for the decarboxylation step, indicating that the decarboxylation step is not entirely rate limiting. We have been able to estimate probable values of the relative free energies of the transition states of the enzymatic reaction up to and including the decarboxylation step from the 13C kinetic isotope effect and the rate of D-H exchange of alpha-H. The pH dependence of the kinetic isotope effect reflects the pKa of the pyridine nitrogen of the coenzyme pyridoxal 5'-phosphate but not that of the imine nitrogen. A mechanism is proposed for the exchange of aspartate beta-H that is consistent with the stereochemistry suggested earlier. 相似文献

Pig heart NADP+-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase requires a metal ion for activity. Under optimum conditions (pH 7.5, Mg2+ present), the carbon isotope effect is k12/k13 = 0.9989 +/- 0.0004 for the carboxyl carbon undergoing decarboxylation and hydrogen isotope effects are VmaxH/VmaxD = 1.09 +/- 0.04 and (Vmax/Km)H/(Vmax/Km)D = 0.76 +/- 0.12 with threo-D,L-[2-2H]isocitric acid. Deuterium isotope effects measured by the equilibrium perturbation technique under the same conditions are VH/VD = 1.20 for the forward reaction and 1.02 for the reverse reaction. Under these conditions the rate-determining step in the enzymatic reaction must be product release. Dissociation of isocitrate from the enzyme-isocitrate complex and the enzyme-NADP+ complex must be two or more orders of magnitude slower than the chemical steps. The catalytic activity of the enzyme is about tenfold lower in the presence of Ni2+ than in the presence of Mg2+. The carbon isotope effect in the presence of Ni2+ at pH 7.5 is k12/k13 = 1.0051 +/- 0.0012 and the hydrogen isotope effects are VmaxH/VmaxD = 0.98 +/- 0.07 and (Vmax/Km)H/(Vmax/Km)D = 1.11 +/- 0.14. Thus, the rate decrease caused by substitution of Ni2+ for Mg2+ must result from the effects of metal on substrate and product binding and dissociation, rather than effects of metal on catalysis. However, a more detailed analysis of the carbon isotope effects reveals that there is also a large metal effect on the rate of the decarboxylation step, consistent with the view that the carbonyl oxygen of the oxalosuccinate intermediate is coordinated to the metal during decarboxylation. 相似文献

Kinetic parameters for NADPH and NADH have been determined at pH 8.1 for spinach, yeast, and E. coli glutathione reductases. NADPH exhibited low Km values for all enzymes (3-6 microM), while the Km values for NADH were 100 times higher (approximately 400 microM). Under our experimental conditions, the percentage of maximal velocities with NADH versus those measured with NADPH were 18.4, 3.7, and 0.13% for the spinach, yeast, and E. coli enzymes, respectively. Primary deuterium kinetic isotope effects were independent of GSSG concentration between Km and 15Km levels, supporting a ping-pong kinetic mechanism. For each of the three enzymes, NADPH yielded primary deuterium kinetic isotope effects on Vmax only, while NADH exhibited primary deuterium kinetic isotope effects on both V and V/K. The magnitude of DV/KNADH at pH 8.1 is 4.3 for the spinach enzyme, 2.7 for the yeast enzyme, and 1.6 for the E. coli glutathione reductase. The experimentally determined values of TV/KNADH of 7.4, 4.2, and 2.2 for the spinach, yeast, and E. coli glutathione reductases agree well with those calculated from the corresponding DV/KNADH using the Swain-Schaad expression. This suggests that the intrinsic primary kinetic isotope effect on NADH oxidation is fully expressed. In order to confirm this conclusion, single-turnover experiments have been performed. The measured primary deuterium kinetic isotope effects on the enzyme reduction half-reaction using NADH match those measured in the steady state for each of the three glutathione reductases.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The pH dependence of the maximum velocity (V) for the phosphorylation of glucose, the V/Kglucose and the V/KMgATP have been obtained in H2O and 2H2O. In H2O, V decreases below a pK of 5.8, V/Kglucose decreases below a pK of 6.1 and V/KMgATP decreases below a pK of 6.7. In 2H2O, complex behavior is observed for these parameters as a function of pD. The ratios of the parameters in H2O and 2H2O above their respective pK values give solvent deuterium isotope effects of about 1.5-1.7 for all three parameters. When 1,5-anhydromannitol is used as an alternative substrate, an isotope effect different than unity is obtained only for V/K1,5-anhydromannitol which gives a value of about 0.7. Both the complex pH profiles and the relative magnitude of the isotope effects are interpreted in terms of a pH-dependent change in the E X glucose complex. 相似文献

Intrinsic primary hydrogen isotope effects (kH/kD) have been obtained for the carbon-hydrogen bond cleavage step catalyzed by dopamine beta-monooxygenase. Irreversibility of this step is inferred from the failure to observe back-exchange of tritium from TOH into substrate under conditions of dopamine turnover; this result cannot be due to solvent inaccessibility at the enzyme active site, since we will demonstrate [Ahn, N., & Klinman, J. P. (1983) Biochemistry (following paper in this issue)] that a solvent-derived proton or triton must be at the enzyme active site prior to substrate activation. As shown by Northrop [Northrop, D. B. (1975) Biochemistry 14, 2644], for enzymatic reactions in which the carbon-hydrogen bond cleavage step is irreversible, comparison of D(V/K) to T(V/K) allows an explicit solution for kH/kD. Employing a double-label tracer method, we have been able to measure deuterium isotope effects on Vmax/Km with high precision, D(V/K) = 2.756 +/- 0.054 at pH 6.0. The magnitude of the tritium isotope effect under comparable experimental conditions is T(V/K) = 6.079 +/- 0.220, yielding kH/kD = 9.4 +/- 1.3. This result was obtained in the presence of saturating concentrations of the anion activator fumarate. Elimination of fumarate from the reaction mixture leads to high observed values for isotope effects on Vmax/Km, together with an essentially invariant value for kH/kD = 10.9 +/- 1.9. Thus, the large disparity between isotope effects, plus or minus fumarate, cannot be accounted for by a change in kH/kD, and we conclude a role for fumarate in the modulation of the partitioning of enzyme-substrate complex between catalysis and substrate dissociation. On the basis of literature correlations of primary hydrogen isotope effects and the thermodynamic properties of hydrogen transfer reactions, the very large magnitude of kH/kD = 9.4-10.9 for dopamine beta-monooxygenase suggests an equilibrium constant not very far from unity for the carbon-hydrogen bond cleavage step. This feature, together with the failure to observe re-formation of dopamine from enzyme-bound intermediate or product and overall rate limitation of enzyme turnover by product release, leads us to propose a stepwise mechanism for norepinephrine formation from dopamine in which carbon-hydrogen bond cleavage is uncoupled from the oxygen insertion step. 相似文献

Cytochromes P450SP(alpha) (CYP152B1) and P450BS(beta) (CYP152A1), which are isolated from Sphingomonas paucimobilis and Bacillus subtilis, respectively, belong to the P450 superfamily, but catalyze hydroxylation reactions, in which an oxygen atom from H2O2 is efficiently introduced into fatty acids (e.g., myristic acid). P450SP(alpha) produces the alpha-hydroxylated (alpha-OH) products at 100%, while P450BS(beta) produces alpha- and beta-hydroxylated (beta-OH) products at 33 and 67%, respectively. Using deuterium-substituted fatty acids ([2,2-d2]-myristic acid and d27-myristic acid) as a substrate, the peroxygenase reactions of the two bacterial P450s were investigated. In the P450SP(alpha) reaction, we observed an intermolecular noncompetitive kinetic isotope effect on Vmax (DV = 4.1) when [2,2-d2]-myristic acid was used, suggesting that an isotopically sensitive step involving the alpha-hydrogen of the fatty acid is present in the catalytic cycle. On the other hand, D(V/K) was masked, in sharp contrast to the features of usual monooxygenases P450. The characteristic kinetic features can be interpreted in terms of the faster product formation than the substrate dissociation. A similar kinetic isotope effect was observed [DV = 4.9, D(V/K) approximately 1] for the P450BS(beta) reaction, when d27-myristic acid was used as a substrate, indicating that the reaction mechanism is the same for both peroxygenases. The resonance Raman spectral data of P450BS(beta) in the ferric and ferrous-CO forms in the presence and absence of myristic acid demonstrated that the catalytic pocket of the enzyme is polar, so that the location of the carboxylate of the substrate close to the sixth ligand of the heme could be allowed. On the basis of these results on the kinetic isotope effects and spectroscopy, we discuss the possible mechanisms of the alpha- and beta-hydroxylation of fatty acids catalyzed by peroxygenases P450SP(alpha) and P450BS(beta). 相似文献

The pH dependence of the human prostatic acid phosphatase-catalyzed hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl phosphate and beta-glyceryl phosphate has been studied over a wide range of pH and the values of Km and V calculated with the aid of the Cleland HYPER program. The pH dependence of Km shows the effect of substrate ionization: pK values of 5.6 and 6.4 are observed as for the respective values of free substrates. The pH dependence of both Km and V for each substrate reveals the involvement of an ionizable group in the ES complex which is ascribed to a phosphohistidine-enzyme intermediate. The small deuterium solvent isotope effects which are observed on V are consistent with values observed for solvolysis of phosphoramidates. The measured data for Km indicates limits on burst-titration experiments of prostatic acid phosphatase (orthophosphoric-monoester phosphohydrolase, EC 3.1.3.2). 相似文献

Mechanistic studies on the bovine liver mitochondrial dihydroorotate dehydrogenase using kinetic deuterium isotope effects 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Dihydroorotates deuteriated at both C5 and C6 have been prepared and used to probe the mechanism of the bovine liver mitochondrial dihydroorotate dehydrogenase. Primary deuterium isotope effects on kcat are observed with both (6RS)-[5(S)-2H]- and (6RS)-[6-2H] dihydroorotates (3 and 6, respectively); these effects are maximal at low pH. At pH 6.6, DV = 3.4 for the C5-deuteriated dihydroorotate (3), and DV = 2.3 for the C6-deuteriated compound (6). The isotope effects approach unity at pH 8.8. Analysis of the pH dependence of the isotope effects on kcat reveals a shift in the rate-determining step of the enzyme mechanism as a function of pH. Dihydroorotate oxidation appears to require general base catalysis (pKB = 8.26); this step is completely rate-determining at low pH and isotopically sensitive. Reduction of the cosubstrate, coenzyme Q6, is rate-limiting at high pH and is isotopically insensitive; this step appears to require general acid catalysis (pKA = 8.42). The results of double isotope substitution studies and analysis for substrate isotope exchange with solvent point toward a concerted mechanism for oxidation of dihydroorotate. This finding serves to distinguish further the mammalian dehydrogenase from its parasitic cognate, which catalyzes a stepwise oxidation reaction [Pascal, R., & Walsh, C.T. (1984) Biochemistry 23, 2745]. 相似文献

Kinetic parameters and primary deuterium kinetic isotope effects for NADH and five pyridine nucleotide substrates have been determined at pH 8.1 for human erythrocyte glutathione reductase. DV/KNADH and DV are equal to 1.4 and are pH independent below pH 8.1, but DV decreases to 1.0 at high pH as a group exhibiting a pK of 8.6 is deprotonated. This result suggests that as His-467' is deprotonated, the rate of the isotopically insensitive oxidative half-reaction is specifically decreased and becomes rate-limiting. For all substrates, equivalent V and V/K primary deuterium kinetic isotope effects are observed at pH values below 8.1. The primary deuterium kinetic isotope effect on V, but not V/K, is sensitive to solvent isotopic composition. The primary tritium kinetic isotope effects agree well with the corresponding value calculated from the primary deuterium kinetic isotope effects by using the Swain-Schaad relationship. This suggests that the primary deuterium kinetic isotope effects observed in these steady-state experiments are the intrinsic primary deuterium kinetic isotope effects for hydride transfer. The magnitude of the primary deuterium kinetic isotope effect is dependent on the redox potential of the pyridine nucleotide substrate used, varying from approximately 1.4 for NADH and -320 mV reductants to 2.7 for thioNADH to 4.2-4.8 for 3-acetylpyridine adenine dinucleotide (3APADH). The alpha-secondary tritium kinetic isotope effects also increase as the redox potential of the pyridine nucleotide substrate becomes more positive. Together, these data indicate that the transition state for hydride transfer is very early for NADH and becomes later for thioNADH and 3APADH, as predicted by Hammond's postulate.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The FAD-dependent choline oxidase catalyzes the four-electron oxidation of choline to glycine-betaine, with betaine-aldehyde as intermediate. The enzyme is capable of accepting either choline or betaine-aldehyde as a substrate, allowing the investigation of the reaction mechanism for both the conversion of choline to betaine-aldehyde and of betaine-aldehyde to glycine-betaine. In the present study, pH and deuterium kinetic isotope effects with [1,2-2H(4)]-choline were used to study the mechanism of oxidation of choline to betaine-aldehyde. The V/K and V(max) pH-profiles increased to limiting values with increasing pH, suggesting the presence of a catalytic base essential for catalysis at the enzyme active site. From the V/K pH-profile with [1,2-2H(4)]-choline, a pK(a) of 8.0 was determined for the catalytic base. This pK(a) was shifted to 7.5 in the V/K pH-profile with choline, indicating a significant commitment to catalysis with this substrate. In agreement with this conclusion, the D(V/K) values decreased from a limiting value of 12.4 below pH 6.5 to a limiting value of 4.1 above pH 9.5. The large D(V/K) values at low pH are consistent with carbon-hydrogen bond cleavage of choline being nearly irreversible and fully rate-limiting at low pH. Based on comparison of amino acid sequences and previous structural and mechanistic studies on other members of the GMC oxidoreductase superfamily, the identity of the catalytic base of choline oxidase is proposed. 相似文献

The pH dependence of the kinetic parameters and the primary deuterium isotope effects with nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) and also thionicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (thio-NAD) as the nucleotide substrates were determined in order to obtain information about the chemical mechanism and location of rate-determining steps for the Ascaris suum NAD-malic enzyme reaction. The maximum velocity with thio-NAD as the nucleotide is pH-independent from pH 4.2 to 9.6, while with NAD, V decreases below a pK of 4.8. V/K for both nucleotides decreases below a pK of 5.6 and above a pK of 8.9. Both the tartronate pKi and V/Kmalate decrease below a pK of 4.8 and above a pK of 8.9. Oxalate is competitive vs. malate above pH 7 and noncompetitive below pH 7 with NAD as the nucleotide. The oxalate Kis increases from a constant value above a pK of 4.9 to another constant value above a pK of 6.7. The oxalate Kii also increases above a pK of 4.9, and this inhibition is enhanced by NADH. In the presence of thio-NAD the inhibition by oxalate is competitive vs. malate below pH 7. For thio-NAD, both DV and D(V/K) are pH-independent and equal to 1.7. With NAD as the nucleotide, DV decreases to 1.0 below a pK of 4.9, while D(V/KNAD) and D(V/Kmalate) are pH-independent. Above pH 7 the isotope effects on V and the V/K values for NAD and malate are equal to 1.45, the pH-independent value of DV above pH 7. From the above data, the following conclusions can be made concerning the mechanism for this enzyme. Substrates bind to only the correctly protonated form of the enzyme. Two enzyme groups are necessary for binding of substrates and catalysis. Both NAD and malate are released from the Michaelis complex at equal rates which are equal to the rate of NADH release from E-NADH above pH 7. Below pH 7 NADH release becomes more rate-determining as the pH decreases until at pH 4.0 it completely limits the overall rate of the reaction. 相似文献

The pH dependence of the peptidolytic reaction of recombinant human immunodeficiency virus type 1 protease has been examined over a pH range of 3-7 for four oligopeptide substrates and two competitive inhibitors. The pK values obtained from the pKis vs pH profiles for the unprotonated and protonated active-site aspartyl groups, Asp-25 and Asp-25', in the monoprotonated enzyme form were 3.1 and 5.2, respectively. Profiles of log V/K vs pH for all four substrates were "bell-shaped" in which the pK values for the unprotonated and protonated aspartyl residues were 3.4-3.7 and 5.5-6.5, respectively. Profiles of log V vs pH for these substrates were "wave-shaped" in which V was shifted to a constant lower value upon protonation of a residue of pK = 4.2-5.2. These results indicate that substrates bind only to a form of HIV-1 protease in which one of the two catalytic aspartyl residues is protonated. Solvent kinetic isotope effects were measured over a pH (D) range of 3-7 for two oligopeptide substrates, Ac-Arg-Ala-Ser-Gln-Asn-Tyr-Pro-Val-Val-NH2 and Ac-Ser-Gln-Asn-Tyr-Pro-Val-Val-NH2. The pH-independent value for DV/K was 1.0 for both substrates, and DV = 1.5-1.7 and 2.2-3.2 at low and high pH (D), respectively. The attentuation of both V and DV at low pH (D) is consistent with a change in rate-limiting step from a chemical one at high pH (D) to one in which a product release step or an enzyme isomerization step becomes partly rate-limiting at low pH (D). Proton inventory data is in accord with the concerted transfer of two protons in the transition state of a rate-limiting chemical step in which the enzyme-bound amide hydrate adduct collapses to form the carboxylic acid and amine products. 相似文献
