从重组大肠杆菌E.coli BL21(p ET22b-palⅠ)中纯化得到来源于Erwinia rhapontici NX-5的蔗糖异构酶(sucrose isomerase,SIase,EC 5.4.99.11),以纯酶为对象考察其酶活力抑制动力学。结果表明:SIase纯比酶活1 512.77 U/mg,动力学常数Km=260 mmol/L,Vmax=39.41μmol/(L·s)。以化学抑制剂Woodward's Reagent K(WRK)对重组蔗糖异构酶进行抑制反应,反应体系中随着WRK浓度的升高,SIase与底物蔗糖的亲和力常数Km增大,最大反应速度Vmax在一定范围内保持稳定。通过对SIase的抑制动力学分析可得到,WRK对SIase的抑制类型为可逆的竞争性抑制,这可能与WRK与蔗糖的结构类似,与可竞争性的结合SIase的活性中心有关。

PAR对氨基酰化酶不可逆抑制动力学研究

本文将邹氏的在酶的活性修饰剂存在下的底物反应动力学理论应用于氨基酰化酶被金属螯合剂PAR脱锌而失活的动力学研究。通过对不同浓度的PAR存在下底物反应过程和含有PAR的不同浓度的底物中酶促反应的分析,讨论了PAR对氨基酰化酶的脱锌机制。这一过程很可能按如下机制进行:首先,PAR与酶分子活性部位的锌结合,形成一复合物,这一步是较快的反应,然后发生一个可逆的构象变化,最后是不可逆的去锌步骤。锌的存在显然稳定了酶活性部位的构象,而这正是酶活性所必需的。     

Kinetics of inactivation of Ulva pertusa Kjellm alkaline phosphatase by ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid disodium

Ulva pertusa Kjellm alkaline phosphatase (EC 3.3.3.1) is a metalloenzyme, the active site of which contains a tight cluster of two zinc ions and one magnesium ion. The kinetic theory described by Tsou of the substrate reaction during irreversible inhibition of enzyme activity has been employed to study the kinetics of the course of inactivation of the enzyme by EDTA. The kinetics of the substrate reaction at different concentrations of the substrate p-nitrophenyl phosphate (PNPP) and inactivator EDTA indicated a complexing mechanism for inactivation by, and substrate competition with, EDTA at the active site. The inactivation kinetics are single phasic, showing that the initial formation of an enzyme-EDTA complex is a relative rapid reaction, following by a slow inactivation step that probably involves a conformational change of the enzyme. The presence of Zn2+ apparently stabilizes an active-site conformation required for enzyme activity.     

Kinetics of inactivation of green crab (Scylla Serrata) alkaline phosphatase during removal of zinc ions by ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid disodium

Green crab (Scylla Serrata) alkaline phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.1.) is a metalloenzyme, the each active site in which contains a tight cluster of two zinc ions and one magnesium ion. The kinetic theory of the substrate reaction during irreversible inhibition of enzyme activity previously described by Tsou has been applied to a study on the kinetics of the course of inactivation of the enzyme by ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid disodium (EDTA). The kinetics of the substrate reaction with different concentrations of the substrate p-nitrophenyl phosphate (PNPP) and inactivator EDTA suggested a complexing mechanism for inactivation by, and substrate competition with, EDTA at the active site. The inactivation kinetics are single phasic, showing the initial formation of an enzyme-EDTA complex is a relatively rapid reaction, followed a slow inactivation step that probably involves a conformational change of the enzyme. Zinc ions are finally removed from the enzyme. The presence of metal ions apparently stabilizes an active-site conformation required for enzyme activity.     

Multiple effects of chemical reagent on enzyme: o-phthalaldehyde-induced inactivation,dissociation and partial unfolding of lactate dehydrogenase from pig heart

The effects of o-phthalaldehyde (OPTA) on lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) have been studied by following changes in enzymatic activity, aggregation state and conformation. Treatment with OPTA resulted in pseudo first-order inactivation of LDH over a wide concentration range of the inhibitor, and the second-order rate constant was estimated to be 1.52 M⁻¹ s⁻¹. The loss of enzyme activity was concomitant with the increases in absorbance at 337 nm and fluorescence intensity at 405 nm. Complete loss of enzyme activity was accompanied by the formation of approximately 4 mol isoindole derivatives per mole LDH subunit. Cross-linking experiments verified enzyme dissociation during OPTA modification, which could be attributed to the modification of both thiol groups and lysine residues. Circular dichroism (CD) spectra showed that the secondary structure of the OPTA-modified enzyme decreased correspondingly. Comparison of the inactivation with the conformational changes of the enzyme suggests that the active site of the enzyme exhibits greater conformational flexibility than the enzyme molecule as a whole. It is concluded that OPTA modification has multiple effects on LDH, including its inactivation, dissociation and partial unfolding.     

Kinetics of inactivation of beta-lactamase I by 6 beta-bromopenicillanic acid.

The kinetics of the inactivation of beta-lactamase I from Bacillus cereus 569 by preparations of 6 alpha-bromopenicillanic acid showed unexpected features. These can be quantitatively accounted for on the basis of the inactivator being the epimer, 6 beta-bromopenicillanic acid. At pH 9.2, the rate-determining step in the inactivation is the formation of the inactivator. When pure 6 beta-bromopenicillanic acid is used to inactivate beta-lactamase I, simple second-order kinetics are observed. The inactivated enzyme has a new absorption peak at 326 nm. The rate constant for inactivation has the same value as the rate constant for appearance of absorption at 326 nm; the rate-determining step may thus be fission of the beta-lactam ring of 6 beta-bromopenicillanic acid. Inactivation is slower in the presence of substrate, and the observed kinetics can be quantitatively accounted for on a simple competitive model. The results strongly suggest that inactivation is a consequence of reaction at the active site.     

Kinetics of inactivation of creatine kinase during modification of its thiol groups

Kinetics of inactivation and modification of the reactive thiol groups of creatine kinase by 5,5'-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoic acid) or iodoacetamide have been compared, the former by following the substrate reaction in presence of the inactivator [Wang, Z.-X., & Tsou, C.-L. (1987) J. Theor. Biol. 127, 253]. The microscopic constants for the reaction of the inactivators with the free enzyme and with the enzyme-substrate complexes were determined. From the results obtained it appears that with respect to ATP both inactivators are noncompetitive whereas for creatine iodoacetamide is competitive but DTNB is not. The formation of the ternary complex protects against the inactivation by both DTNB and iodoacetamide. The inactivation kinetics is monophasic with both inactivators, but under similar conditions, the modification reactions in the presence of the transition-state analogue of creatine-ADP-Mg2+-nitrate show biphasic kinetics as also reported by Price and Hunter [Price, N.C., & Hunter, M.G. (1976) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 445, 364]. If the reactive ternary complex and the enzyme complexed with the transition-state analogue react in the same way with these reagents, the modification of one fast-reacting thiol group for each enzyme molecule leads to complete inactivation, indicating that the enzyme has to be in the dimeric state to be active.     

Mechanism of action of adenosylcobalamin: glycerol and other substrate analogues as substrates and inactivators for propanediol dehydratase--kinetics, stereospecificity, and mechanism.

A number of vicinal diols were found to react with propanediol dehydratase, typically resulting in the conversion of enzyme-bound adenosylcobalamin to cob(II)alamin and formation of aldehyde or ketone derives from substrate. Moreover, all are capable of effecting the irreversible inactivation of the enzyme. The kinetics and mechanism of product formation and inactivation were investigated. Glycerol, found to be a very good substrate for diol dehydratase as well as a potent inactivator, atypically, did not induce cob(II)alamin formation to any detectable extent. With glycerol, the inactivation process was accompanied by conversion of enzyme-bound adenosylcobalamin to an alkyl or thiol cobalamin, probably by substitution of an amino acid chain near the active site for the 5'-deoxy-5'-adenosyl ligand on the cobalamin. The inactivation reaction with glycerol as the inactivator exhibits a deuterium isotope effect of 14, strongly implicating hydrogen transfer as an important step in the mechanism of inactivation. The isotope effect on the rate of product formation was found to be 8.0. Experiments with isotopically substituted glycerols indicate that diol dehydrase distinguishes between "R" and "S" binding conformations, the enzyme-(R)-glycerol complex being predominately responsible for the product-forming reaction, while the enzyme-(S)-glycerol complex results primarily in the activation reaction. Mechanistic implications are discussed. A method for removing enzyme-bound hydroxycobalamin that is nondestructive to the enzyme and a technique for measuring the binding constants of (R)- and (S)-1,2-propanediols are presented.     

Apparent suicidal inactivation of DNA polymerase by adenosine 2',3'-riboepoxide 5'-triphosphate.

Adenosine 2',3'-riboepoxide 5'-triphosphate (epoxyATP) has been found to be a suicidal inactivator of DNA polymerase I from Escherichia coli by the following criteria. Inactivation is complete, is first order in enzyme activity, and shows saturation kinetics with an apparent KD of 30 +/- 10 micron for epoxy ATP. This KD is comparable to the KM of the substrate dATP. The t1/2 for inactivation is 1.3 min. Inactivation requires Mg2+ and the complementary template. The enzyme is protected by dATP but not by an excess of template. Gel filtration of the reaction mixture after inactivation with [3H]epoxy ATP results in the comigration of E. coli DNA polymerase I, the tritium-labeled inactivator, and the DNA template. The stoichiometry of binding approaches 1 mol of [3H]epoxy nucleotide per mol of inactivated enzyme. These results are consistent with the hypothesis that epoxy ATP initially serves as a substrate for the polymerase reaction, elongating the DNA chain by a nucleotidyl unit, and subsequently alkylates an essential base at the primer terminus binding site of the enzyme. Epoxy ATP also inactivates human and viral DNA polymerases but not E. coli RNA polymerase or rabbit muscle pyruvate kinase. Hence epoxy ATP may be a specific suicide reagent for DNA polymerases.     

Kinetics of modification of the mitochondrial succinate-ubiquinone reductase by 5,5′-dithiobis-(2-nitro-benzoic acid)

The kinetic theory of the substrate reaction during modification of enzyme activity previously described by Tsou [Tsou (1988),Adv. Enzymol. Relat. Areas Mol. Biol. 61, 381–436] has been applied to a study of the kinetics of the course of inactivation of the mitochondrial succinate-ubiquinone reductase by 5,5′-dithiobis-(2-nitro-benzoic acid) (DTNB). The results show that the inactivation of this enzyme by DTNB is a conformation-change-type inhibition which involves a conformational change of the enzyme before inactivation. The microscopic rate constants were determined for the reaction of the inactivator with the enzyme. The presence of the substrate provides marked protection of this enzyme against inactivation by DTNB. The modification reaction of the enzyme using DTNB was shown to follow a triphasic course by following the absorption at 412 nm. Among these reactive thiol groups, the fast-reaction thiol group is essential for the enzyme activity. The results suggest that the essential thiol group is situated at the succinate-binding site of the mitochondrial succinate-ubiquinone reductase.     

Kinetics of inhibition of alkaline phosphatase from green crab (Scylla serrata) by N-bromosuccinimide

The inactivation of alkaline phosphatase from green crab (Scylla serrata) by N-bromosuccinimide has been studied using the kinetic method of the substrate reaction during modification of enzyme activity previously described by Tsou [(1988),Adv. Enzymol. Related Areas Mol. Biol. 61, 381–436]. The results show that inactivation of the enzyme is a slow, reversible reaction. The microscopic rate constants for the reaction of the inactivator with free enzyme and the enzyme-substrate complex were determined. Comparison of these rate constants indicates that the presence of substrate offers marked protection of this enzyme against inactivation by N-bromosuccinimide. The above results suggest that the tryptophan residue is essential for activity and is situated at the active site of the enzyme.
