A monomeric 3 alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase with a molecular weight of 34,000 was purified to apparent homogeneity from mouse liver cytosol. The enzyme catalyzed the reversible oxidation of the 3 alpha-hydroxy group of C19-, C21-, and C24-steroids, reduced a variety of carbonyl compounds, and was inhibited by SH-reagents, synthetic estrogens, anti-inflammatory drugs, prostaglandins, and delta 4-3-ketosteroids. Although these properties are similar to those of the enzyme from rat liver cytosol, the mouse enzyme exhibited low dehydrogenase activity toward benzene dihydrodiol and some alicyclic alcohols, it showed a strict cofactor specificity for NADP(H), and high substrate inhibition was observed in the reverse reaction. In addition, dexamethasone, deoxycorticosterone, and medroxyprogesterone acetate inhibited the mouse enzyme competitively at low concentrations and noncompetitively at high concentrations, whereas hexestrol, indomethacin, and prostaglandin A1 were competitive inhibitors. Steady-state kinetic measurements in both directions indicated that the reaction proceeds through an ordered bi bi mechanism with the cofactors binding to the free enzyme. The 3-ketosteroid substrates inhibited the enzyme uncompetitively at elevated concentrations, suggesting that the substrates bind to the enzyme.NADPH complex and to the enzyme NADP+ complex. 相似文献

4-Hydroxybenzaldehyde (HBA) derivatives were examined as inhibitors for GABA transaminase (GABA-T) and succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase (SSADH). Investigation of structure-activity relation revealed that a carbonyl group or an amino group as well as a hydroxy group at the para position of the benzene ring are important for both enzymes' inhibition. HBA was shown to give competitive inhibition of GABA-T with respect to alpha-ketoglutarate and competitive inhibition of SSADH. 4-Hydroxybenzylamine (HBM) also showed the competitive inhibition on GABA-T with respect to GABA. In conclusion, the inhibitory effects of HBA and HBM on both enzymes could result from the similarity between both molecules and the two enzymes' substrates in structure, as well as the conjugative effect of the benzene ring. This suggested that the presence of the benzene ring may be accepted by the active site of both enzymes, HBA and HBM may be considered as lead compounds to design novel GABA-T inhibitors. 相似文献

The structural requirements of the NADP+ molecule as a coenzyme in the oxidative decarboxylation reaction catalysed by pigeon liver malic enzyme were studied by kinetic and fluorimetric analyses with various NADP+ analogues and fragments. The substrate L-malate had little effect on the nucleotide binding. Etheno-NADP+, 3-acetylpyridine-adenine dinucleotide phosphate, and nicotinamide-hypoxanthine dinucleotide phosphate act as alternative coenzymes for the enzyme. Their kinetic parameters were similar to that of NADP+. Thionicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide phosphate, 3-aminopyridine-adenine dinucleotide phosphate, 5'-adenylyl imidodiphosphate, nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide 3'-phosphate and NAD+ act as inhibitors for the enzyme. The first two were competitive with respect to NADP+ and non-competitive with respect to L-malate; the other inhibitors were non-competitive with NADP+. All NADP+ fragments were inhibitory to the enzyme, with a wide range of affinity, depending on the presence or absence of a 2'-phosphate group. Compounds with this group bind to the enzyme 2-3 orders of magnitude more tightly than those without this group. Only compounds with this group were competitive inhibitors with respect to NADP+. We conclude that the 2'-phosphate group is crucial for the nucleotide binding of this enzyme, whereas the carboxyamide carbonyl group of the nicotinamide moiety is important for the coenzyme activity. There is a strong synergistic effect between the binding of the nicotinamide and adenosine moieties of the nucleotide molecule. 相似文献

Prolyl 4-hydroxylase (EC 1.14.11.2) is an essential enzyme in the post-translational modification of collagen. Inhibitors of this enzyme are of potential interest for the treatment of diseases involving excessive deposition of collagen. We have found that anthraquinones with at least two hydroxy groups ortho to each other are potent inhibitors of this enzyme. Kinetic studies revealed that 2,7,8-trihydroxyanthraquinone (THA) competitively inhibited the co-substrate, 2-oxoglutarate, but was non-competitive with regard to ascorbate and was tentatively considered to be uncompetitive with regard to protocollagen. The inhibition by THA was greatly enhanced in the absence of added Fe2+ and was partially reversed by the addition of concentrations of Fe2+ in excess of the optimum for the enzymic reaction. Binding studies indicated that THA is an effective chelating agent for Fe2+. Several non-quinoidal compounds bearing the catechol moiety also inhibited the enzyme. The results suggest that THA inhibited prolyl 4-hydroxylase by binding to the enzyme at the site for 2-oxoglutarate possibly involving the Fe2+ atom, rather than by complexing with Fe2+ in free solution. The inhibition of prolyl 4-hydroxylase by THA exhibited strong positive co-operativity and may involve three distinct but non-independent binding sites. 相似文献

A series of 5alpha-androst-3-enes and 3alpha,4alpha-epoxy-5alpha-androstanes were synthesized and tested for their abilities to inhibit aromatase in human placental microsomes. In these series the original C-17 carbonyl group was replaced by hydroxyl, acetyl and hydroxyimine groups. Inhibition kinetic analysis on the most potent steroid of these series revealed that it inhibits the enzyme in a competitive manner (IC(50)=6.5 microM). The achieved data pointed out the importance of the C-17 carbonyl group in the D-ring of the studied steroids as a structural feature required to reach maximum aromatase inhibitory activity. Further, at least one carbonyl group (C-3 or C-17) seems to be essential to effective aromatase inhibition. 相似文献

Inhibitory effect of 44 species of fatty acids on cholesterol synthesis has been examined with a rat liver enzyme system. In the case of saturated fatty acids, the inhibitory activity increased with chain length to a maximum at 11 to 14 carbons, after which activity decreased rapidly. The inhibition increased with the degree of unsaturation of fatty acids. Introduction of a hydroxy group at the alpha-position of fatty acids abolished the inhibition, while the inhibition was enhanced by the presence of a hydroxy group located in an intermediate position of the chain. Branched chain fatty acids having a methyl group at the terminal showed much higher activity than the corresponding saturated straight chain fatty acids with the same number of carbons. With respect to the mechanism for inhibition, tridecanoate was found to inhibit acetoacetyl-CoA thiolase specifically without affecting the other reaction steps in the cholesterol synthetic pathway. The highly unsaturated fatty acids, arachidonate and linoleate, were specific inhibitors of 3-hydroxy-3-methyl-glutaryl-CoA synthase. On the other hand, ricinoleate (hydroxy acid) and phytanate (branched-chain acid) diminished the conversion of mevalonate to sterols by inhibiting a step or steps between squalene and lanosterol. 相似文献

Human sulphamate sulphohydrolase was purified at least 20,000-fold to homogeneity from liver with a three-step four-column procedure, which consisted of a concanavalin A-Sepharose/Blue A agarose coupled step, and Bio-Gel HT step and then a CM-Sepharose step. The procedure was also used to purify enzyme from kidney and placenta. The subunit Mr of liver, kidney and placenta sulphamate sulphohydrolase was assessed to be 56,000 by using SDS/polacrylamide-gel electrophoresis. The native protein Mr of enzyme from all three tissue sources was assessed by gel-permeation chromatography to be approx. 120,000 on Sephacryl S-300 and 100,000 on Fractogel TSK. It is probable that the native enzyme results from dimerization of subunits. Kinetic parameters (km and kcat.) of human liver sulphamate sulphohydrolase were determined with a variety of substrates matching structural aspects of the physiological substrates in vivo, namely heparin and heparan sulphate. More structurally complex substrates, in which several aspects of the aglycone structure of the natural substrate were maintained, are turned over up to 372000 times faster than the monosaccharide substrate 2-sulphaminoglucosamine. Aglycone structures that influence substrate binding and/or enzyme activity were penultimate-residue C-6 carboxy and C-2 sulphate ester groups and a post-penultimate 2-sulphaminoglucosamine residue. The C-4 hydroxy group of the 2-sulphaminoglucosamine under enzymic attack is involved in binding of substrate to enzyme. The presence of C-6 sulphate ester on the non-reducing end 2-sulphaminoglucosamine stimulates sulphamate bond hydrolysis and substrate affinity if the adjacent monosaccharide residue is idose or 2-sulphoidose, but strongly inhibits hydrolysis if the adjacent monosaccharide residue is iduronic acid. Sulphamate sulphohydrolase is an exoenzyme, since activity toward internal sulphamate bonds was not detected. The effect of incubation pH on enzyme activity towards the variety of substrates evaluated was complex and dependent on substrate aglycone structure. The presence of aglycone C-2 sulphate ester and aglycone C-6 carboxy groups and C-6 sulphate ester groups on the 2-sulphaminoglucosamine residue under attack considerably affect the pH response. Structurally complex substrates had two pH optima. Incubation temperature and buffer ionic strength markedly influenced pH optima and enzyme activity. Cu2+ and SO4(2-)ions are potent inhibitors of enzyme activity. 相似文献

Several steroid analogues containing conjugated acetylenic ketone groups as part of a seco-ring structure or as substituents on the intact steroid system are irreversible inhibitors of delta 5-3-oxo steroid isomerase (EC 5.3.3.1) from Pseudomonas testosteroni. Thus 10 beta-(1-oxoprop-2-ynyl)oestr-4-ene-3,17-dione (I), 5,10-seco-oestr-4-yne-3,10,17-trione (II), 17 beta-hydroxy-5,10-seco-oestr-4-yne-3,10-dione (III) and 17 beta-(1-oxoprop-2-ynyl)androst-4-en-3-one (IV) irreversibly inactivate isomerase in a time-dependent manner. In all cases saturation kinetics are observed. Protection against inactivation is afforded by the powerful competitive inhibitor 19-nortestosterone. The inhibition constants (Ki) for 19-nortestosterone obtained from such experiments are in good agreement with those determined from conventional competitive-inhibition studies of enzyme activity. These compounds thus appear to be active-site directed. In every case the inactivated enzyme could be dialysed without return of activity, indicating that a stable covalent bond probably had formed between the steroid and enzyme. Compound (I) is a very potent inhibitor of isomerase [Ki = 66.0 microM and k+2 = 12.5 x 10(-3) s-1 (where Ki is the dissociation constant of the reversible enzyme-inhibitor complex and k+2 is the rate constant for the inactivation reaction of the enzyme-inhibitor complex)] giving half-lives of inactivation of 30-45 s at saturation. It is argued that the basic-amino-acid residue that abstracts the intramolecularly transferred 4 beta-proton in the reaction mechanism could form a Michael-addition product with compound (I). In contrast, although compound (IV) has a lower inhibition constant (Ki = 14.5 microM), it is a relatively poor alkylating agent (k+2 = 0.13 x 10(-3) s-1). If the conjugated acetylenic ketone groups are replaced by alpha-hydroxyacetylene groups, the resultant analogues of steroids (I)-(IV) are reversible competitive inhibitors with Ki values in the range 27-350 microM. The enzyme binds steroids in the C19 series with functionalized acetylenic substituents at C-17 in preference to steroids in the C18 series bearing similar groups in the ring structure or as C-10 substituents. In the 5,10-seco-steroid series the presence of hydroxy groups at both C-3 and C-17 is deleterious to binding by the enzyme. 相似文献

The synthesis of 13,14-seco steroids starting from easily available (13S)-13-iodo-6beta-methoxy-3alpha,5-cyclo-13,14-seco-5alpha-androsta-14,17-dione is described. The C-17 ketone was converted regioselectively into its oxime with simultaneous stereoselective deiodination at C-13. The remaining C-14 carbonyl group was then reduced stereoselectively with Ca(BH4)2. The configurations at the relevant stereocenters of the thus obtained hydroxy oxime were determined by X-ray analysis. Successful regeneration of the C-17 carbonyl group was achieved by treatment of the corresponding oxime acetate with TiCl3. 相似文献

3-Amino-L-tyrosine was found to be a substrate of mushroom tyrosinase, contrary to what had previously been reported in the literature. A series of amino derivatives of benzoic acid were tested as substrates and inhibitors of the enzyme. 3-Amino-4-hydroxybenzoic acid, 4-amino-3-hydroxybenzoic acid and 3,4-diaminobenzoic acid were oxidized by this enzyme, as previously reported for Neurospora crassa tyrosinase, but 4-aminobenzoic acid and 3-aminobenzoic acid were not. Interestingly, 3-amino-4-hydroxybenzoic acid was oxidized five times faster than 4-amino-3-hydroxybenzoic acid, confirming the importance of proton transfer from the hydroxyl group at C-4 position. All compounds inhibited the monophenolase activity but their effect on the diphenolase activity was small or negligible. 3-Amino-4-hydroxybenzoic acid was a stronger inhibitor than 4-amino-3-hydroxybenzoic acid, indicating their different binding affinity to the oxy form of the enzyme. Both, however, were weaker inhibitors than 3-amino-L-tyrosine, 4-methoxy-o-phenylenediamine and 3,4-diaminobenzoic acid, which was the strongest inhibitor from among the compounds tested. These results show that the relative positioning of the amino group and the hydroxy group in o-aminophenols with respect to the side chain is important both for binding to the dicopper center and for catalysis. 相似文献

1. Co2+ is not a cofactor for 3-deoxy-D-arabinoheptulosonate-7-phosphate synthetase(phe). 2. The following analogues of phosphoenolpyruvate were tested as inhibitors of 3-deoxy-D-arabinoheptolosonate-7-phosphate synthetase(phe): pyruvate, lactate, glycerate, 2-phosphoglycerate, 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate, 3-methylphosphoenolpyruvate, 3-ethylphosphoenolpyruvate and 3,3-demethylphosphoenolpyruvate. The rusults obtained indicate that the binding of phosphoenolpyruvate to the enzyme requires a phosphoryl group on the C-2 position of the substrate and one free hydrogen atom at the C-3 position. 3. The dead-end inhibition pattern observed with the substrate analogue 2-phosphoglycerate when either phosphoenolpyruvate or erythrose 4-phosphate was the variable substrate is inconsistent with a ping-pong mechanism and indicates that the reaction mechanism for this enzyme must be sequential. The following kinetic constants were determined:Km for phosphoenolpyruvate, 0.08 +/- 0.04 mM; Km for erythrose 4-phosphate, 0.9 +/- 0.3 mM; K is for competitive inhibition by 2-phosphoglycerate with respect to phosphoenolpyruvate, 1.0 +/- 0.1 mM. 4. The enzyme was observed to have a bell-shaped pH PROFILE WITH A PH OPTIMUM OF 7.0. The effects of pH ON V and V/(Km for phosphoenolpyruvate) indicated that an ionizing group of pKa 8.0-8.1 is involved in the catalytic activity of the enzyme. The pKa of this group is unaffected by the binding of phosphoenolpyruvate. 相似文献

Analogues of glycerol in which each of the three hydroxy groups is successively replaced by fluorine or hydrogen have been examined as substrates or inhibitors of glycerol kinase (Candida mycoderma) to assess the ability of fluorine to mimic a substrate hydroxy group in enzyme-analogue interactions. The four diols resulting from replacement of the hydroxy groups at C-1 or C-2 of sn-glycerol by fluorine or hydrogen are weak substrates. Similar substitution of the C-3 hydroxy group gives compounds which act as competitive inhibitors of glycerol or dihydroxyacetone phosphorylation but show no activity as substrates. Comparison of the steady-state kinetic parameters of the corresponding analogues shows that replacement of a hydroxy group by either fluorine or hydrogen leads to compounds with similar activity in this system. A convenient synthesis of (+)-propane-1,2-diol is described. 相似文献

Our earlier observations led to the identification of a microsomal enzyme termed as acetoxy drug: protein transacetylase (TAase) catalyzing the transfer of acetyl groups from acetylated polyphenols to the receptor proteins. TAase was conveniently assayed by the irreversible inhibition of cytosolic glutathione S-transferase (GST) by the model acetoxycoumarin, 7,8-diacetoxy-4-methylcoumarin (1). The specificities of the acetoxy group on the benzenoid ring and position of the pyran carbonyl group of the coumarin with respect to oxygen heteroatom for the catalytic activity of TAase were also reported earlier. In this communication, we have demonstrated that the acetoxy coumarins and acetoxy dihydrocoumarins having a methyl group instead of a phenyl ring at the C-4, when used as the substrates, resulted in enhancement of TAase activity, while the saturation of double bond at C-3 and C-4 position had no effect on TAase activity. A comparison of the optimized structures of 1 and 7,8-diacetoxy-4-phenylcoumarin (2) suggested that the observed influence may be due to out of plane configuration of the phenyl ring at C-4. Further, the TAase-catalyzed activation of NADPH cytochrome c reductase and inhibition of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1)-DNA binding by acetoxy 4-phenylcoumarins and dihydrocoumarins were significantly lower as compared to those caused by acetoxy 4-methylcoumarins. 相似文献

Ascorbic acid inhibited the specific binding of both the D1 agonist, [3H] SKF 38393, and the D2 agonist, [3H] N-0437 at physiologically relevant concentrations. This inhibition was both stereospecific and receptor selective. Using ligand concentrations approximating their KD's, the IC50's for ascorbate and two structural analogues, isoascorbate and D-glucoascorbate, were determined. The rank order of IC50's at both D1 and D2 were D-glucoascorbate greater than isoascorbate greater than ascorbate. However, the IC50 for each compound was greater at D1 than D2. Evaluation of the relationship between the IC50 for ascorbate and the ligand concentration using both the D1 and the D2 ligand yielded data inconsistent with competitive inhibition models. Preliminary experiments were conducted to evaluate the site and type of inhibition with results consistent with an allostearic effect at the level of the receptor. 相似文献

Solid-phase synthesis of a parallel library of 3'-hydroxy-2,3-dihydrobenzothiazepines has been carried out through [4+3] annulation of alpha,beta-unsaturated ketones with aminothiophenol, using Wang resin as solid support. The synthesized compounds were evaluated for their potential as antibacterial, tumor inhibitors as well as acetyl- and butyrylcholinesterase inhibitors. None of the compounds showed any significant antibacterial activity. However, quite a few compounds showed significant potential as crown gall tumor inhibitors. These results reflect a strong exploratory potential in search of new benzothiazepines as source of anticancer agents. The results of the inhibition of cholinesterase revealed that benzothiazepines have a greater potential as butyrylcholinesterase inhibitors as compared to acetylcholinesterase. Moreover, the substitution of hydroxy group at C-3 in ring A led to increased activity when compared to unsubstituted- and 2'-OH substituted benzothiazepines. 相似文献

Several galactonoamidines were previously identified as very potent competitive inhibitors that exhibit stabilizing hydrophobic interactions of the aglycon in the active site of β-galactosidase (Aspergillus oryzae). To elucidate the contributions of the glycon to the overall inhibition ability of the compounds, three glyconoamidine derivatives with alteration in the glycon at C-2 and C-4 were synthesized and evaluated herein. All amidines are competitive inhibitors of β-galactosidase (Escherichia coli) and show significantly reduced inhibition ability when compared to the parent. The results highlight strong hydrogen-bonding interactions between the hydroxyl group at C-2 of the amidine glycon and the active site of the enzyme. Slightly weaker H-bonds are promoted through the hydroxyl group at C-4. The inhibition constants were determined to be picomolar for the parent galactonoamidine, and nanomolar for the designed derivatives rendering all glyconoamidines very potent inhibitors of glycosidases albeit the derivatized amidines show up to 700-fold lower inhibition activity than the parent. 相似文献

Evidence from 13C NMR for polarization of the carbonyl of oxaloacetate in the active site of citrate synthase 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The carbon-13 NMR spectrum of oxaloacetate bound in the active site of citrate synthase has been obtained at 90.56 MHz. In the binary complex with enzyme, the positions of the resonances of oxaloacetate are shifted relative to those of the free ligand as follows: C-1 (carboxylate), -2.5 ppm; C-2 (carbonyl), +4.3 ppm; C-3 (methylene), -0.6 ppm; C-4 (carboxylate), +1.3 ppm. The change observed in the carbonyl chemical shift is successively increased in ternary complexes with the product [coenzyme A (CoA)], a substrate analogue (S-acetonyl-CoA), and an acetyl-CoA enolate analogue (carboxymethyl-CoA), reaching a value of +6.8 ppm from the free carbonyl resonance. Binary complexes are in intermediate to fast exchange on the NMR time scale with free oxaloacetate; ternary complexes are in slow exchange. Line widths of the methylene resonance in the ternary complexes suggest complete immobilization of oxaloacetate in the active site. Analysis of line widths in the binary complex suggests the existence of a dynamic equilibrium between two or more forms of bound oxaloacetate, primarily involving C-4. The changes in chemical shifts of the carbonyl carbon indicate strong polarization of the carbonyl bond or protonation of the carbonyl oxygen. Some of this carbonyl polarization occurs even in the binary complex. Development of positive charge on the carbonyl carbon enhances reactivity toward condensation with the carbanion/enolate of acetyl-CoA in the mechanism which has been postulated for this enzyme. The very large change in the chemical shift of the reacting carbonyl in the presence of an analogue of the enolate of acetyl-CoA supports this interpretation. 相似文献

The regulatory protein of rat liver glucokinase (hexokinase IV or D) behaved as a fully competitive inhibitor of this enzyme when glucose was the variable substrate, i.e. it increased the half-saturating concentration of glucose as a linear function of its concentration without affecting V (velocity at infinite concentration of substrate). The inhibition by the regulatory protein and that by palmitoyl-CoA were synergistic with that by N-acetyl-glucosamine, indicating that the two former inhibitors bind to a site distinct from the catalytic site. In contrast, the effects of the regulatory protein and palmitoyl-CoA were competitive with each other, indicating that these two inhibitors bind to the same site. The regulatory protein exerted a non-competitive inhibition with respect to Mg-ATP at concentrations of this nucleotide less than 0.5 mM. At higher concentrations, the latter antagonized the inhibition by the regulatory protein partly by decreasing the apparent affinity for fructose 6-phosphate. The following anions inhibited glucokinase non-competitively with respect to glucose: Pi, sulfate, I-, Br-, No3-, Cl-, F- and acetate. Pi and sulfate, at concentrations in the millimolar range, decreased the inhibition by the regulatory protein by competing with fructose 6-phosphate. Monovalent anions also antagonized the inhibition by the regulatory protein with the following order of potency: I- greater than Br- greater than NO3- greater than Cl- greater than F- greater than acetate and their effect was non-competitive with respect to fructose 6-phosphate. Glucokinase from Buffo marinus and pig liver were, like the rat liver enzyme, inhibited by the regulatory protein, as well as by palmitoyl-CoA at micromolar concentrations. In contrast, neither compound inhibited hexokinases from rat brain, beef heart or yeast, or the low-Km specific glucokinase from Bacillus stearothermophilus. 相似文献

The orientation of substrate and reaction intermediates in the active site of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
There are four possible orientations of the substrate ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate in the active site of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase. Distinction between these four possible orientations has been made on the basis of 31P NMR and borohydride-trapping experiments. The orientation of the reaction-intermediate analog, 2'-carboxy-D-arabinitol 1,5-bisphosphate with respect to the divalent metal ion was determined by 31P NMR studies of the quaternary complex, enzyme.CO2.Ni2+.2'-carboxyarabinitol 1,5-bisphosphate. Assignment of the phosphorus resonances of this complex was made by labeling the phosphoryl group at either C-1 or C-5 with 17O. The phosphorus atom closer to the paramagnetic metal ion, Ni2+, to which the broader of the phosphorus resonances is attributed, has been identified as that attached to C-1. When bound to the active site of carbaminated enzyme, D-ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate was reduced by sodium borohydride with absolute stereospecificity to D-arabinitol 1,5-bisphosphate. The reduction of the enzyme-bound substrate thus occurred on the Si face of the C-2 carbonyl group. These two results together establish that ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate is oriented within the active site so that 1) the phosphoryl group at C-1 is closer to the divalent metal ion than that at C-5 and 2) the Si face of the carbonyl group points to the "outside world." 相似文献

Some physical and chemical properties of the monomeric NADP+-dependent aldehyde reductase (previously called TPN-L-hexonate dehydrogenase or D-glucuronate reductase) from pig kidney have been examined. The amino acid composition has been determined. Four of the five thiol groups react with p-mercuribenzoate at pH 7, with no resulting loss of catalytic activity. High concentrations of p-mercuribenzoate cause complete enzyme inhibition, which can be partly reversed by addition of aldehyde reductase is low (9%, estimated from the ellipticity at 208 nm), and 70 to 80% of the tyrosine and tryptophan residues aare buried within the molecule. One molecule of NADPH binds to the enzyme (Kp equal 25 muM), causing a blue shift and enhancement of the coenzyme fluorescence, and suggesting that the environment of the active site is hydrophobic. In the reduction of D-glyceraldehyde, catalyzed by aldehyde reductase, the pro-4R "A" hydrogen of NADPH attacks the re face of the carbonyl group. This stereospecificity is the same as in the reductions of D-glyceraldehyde and acetaldehyde effected by rabbit muscle dehydrogenase and liver alcohol dehydrogenase, respectively. 相似文献
