Further evidence for time-dependent interconversions between active and inactive states of ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase is presented. It was found that ribulose bisphosphate oxygenase and ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase could be totally inactivated by excluding CO2 and Mg2+ during dialysis of the enzyme at 4 degrees C. When initially inactive enzyme was assayed, the rate of reaction continually increased with time, and the rate was inversely related to the ribulose bisphosphare concentration. The initial rate of fully activated enzyme showed normal Michaelis-Menten kinetics with respect to ribulose bisphosphate (Km = 10muM). Activation was shown to depend on both CO2 and Mg2+ concentrations, with equilibrium constants for activation of about 100muM and 1 mM respectively. In contrast with activation, catalysis appeared to be independent of Mg2+ concentration, but dependent on CO2 concentration, with a Km(CO2) of about 10muM. By studying activation and de-activation of ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase as a function of CO2 and Mg2+ concentrations, the values of the kinetic constants for these actions have been determined. We propose a model for activation and catalysis of ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase: (see book) where E represents free inactive enzyme; complex in parentheses, activated enzyme; R, ribulose bisphosphate; M, Mg2+; C, CO2; P, the product. We propose that ribulose bisphosphate can bind to both the active and inactive forms of the enzyme, and slow inter-conversion between the two states occurs. 相似文献

Adenosine kinase was purified 870-fold from rat heart by a combination of gel filtration and affinity chromatography. The preparation was free of purine-metabolizing enzymes that could interfere in the assay of the kinase. A study of the properties of the purified enzyme showed that it is activated by Na+ and K+, it possesses a broad pH optimum between 6 and 8, MgATP is the nucleotide substrate, free Mg2+ is an inhibitor with respect to both MgATP and adenosine, and the enzyme is subject to substrate inhibition by adenosine. The severity of this inhibition increases as the concentration of free Mg2+ increase. The Km for MgATP was calculated to be 0.8 mM and that for adenosine, at likely physiological concentrations of MgATP and free MgCl2, was about 0.2 microM. In vivo the enzyme is likely to be saturated with both MgATP and adenosine. Indeed, the adenosine concentration in rat heart in vivo is probably sufficient to cause substrate inhibition, and this would be increased by an increase in free Mg2+ concentration. Changes in the concentrations of adenosine and free Mg2+ may play a role in modifying the activity of the enzyme in vivo. 相似文献

The evidence is presented that the ADP- and Mg(2+)-dependent inactivation of MF1-ATPase during MgATP hydrolysis requires binding of ATP at two binding sites: one is catalytic and the second is noncatalytic. Binding of the noncatalytic ATP increases the rate of the inactive complex formation in the course of ATP hydrolysis. The rate of the enzyme inactivation during ATP hydrolysis depends on the medium Mg2+ concentration. High Mg2+ inhibits the steady-state activity of MF1-ATPase by increasing the rate of formation of inactive enzyme-ADP-Mg2+ complex, thereby shifting the equilibrium between active and inactive enzyme forms. The Mg2+ needed for MF1-ATPase inactivation binds from the medium independent from the MgATP binding at either catalytic or noncatalytic sites. The inhibitory ADP molecule arises at the MF1-ATPase catalytic site as a result of MgATP hydrolysis. Exposure of the native MF1-ATPase with bound ADP at a catalytic site to 1 mM Mg2+ prior to assay inactivates the enzymes with kinact 24 min-1. The maximal inactivation rate during ATP hydrolysis at saturating MgATP and Mg2+ does not exceed 10 min-1. The results show that the rate-limiting step of the MF1-ATPase inactivation during ATP hydrolysis with excess Mg2+ precedes binding of Mg2+ and likely is the rate of formation of enzyme with ADP bound at the catalytic site without bound P(i). This complex binds Mg2+ resulting in inactive MF1-ATPase.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Mutational analysis has previously indicated that D83 and E98 residues are essential for DNA cleavage activity and presumably chelate a Mg2+ ion at the active site of MunI restriction enzyme. In the absence of metal ions, protonation of an ionizable residue with a pKa > 7.0, most likely one of the active site carboxylates, controls the DNA binding specificity of MunI [Lagunavicius, A., Grazulis, S., Balciunaite, E., Vainius, D., and Siksnys, V. (1997) Biochemistry 36, 11093-11099.]. Thus, competition between H+ and Mg2+ binding at the active site of MunI presumably plays an important role in catalysis/binding. In the present study we have identified elementary steps and intermediates in the reaction pathway of plasmid DNA cleavage by MunI and elucidated the effect of pH and Mg2+ ions on the individual steps of the DNA cleavage reaction. The kinetic analysis indicated that the multiple-turnover rate of plasmid cleavage by MunI is limited by product release throughout the pH range 6.0-9.3. Quenched-flow experiments revealed that open circle DNA is an obligatory intermediate in the reaction pathway. Under optimal reaction conditions, open circle DNA remains bound to the MunI; however it is released into the solution at low [MgCl2]. Rate constants for the phoshodiester bond hydrolysis of the first (k1) and second (k2) strand of plasmid DNA at pH 7.0 and 10 mM MgCl2 more than 100-fold exceed the kcat value which is limited by product dissociation. The analysis of the pH and [Mg2+] dependences of k1 and k2 revealed that both H+ and Mg2+ ions compete for the binding to the same residue at the active site of MunI. Thus, the decreased rate of phosphodiester hydrolysis by MunI at pH < 7.0 may be due to the reduction of affinity for the Mg2+ binding at the active site. Kinetic analysis of DNA cleavage by MunI yielded estimates for the association-dissociation rate constants of enzyme-substrate complex and demonstrated the decreased stability of the MunI-DNA complex at pH values above 8.0. 相似文献

A detailed steady-state kinetic investigation of the hydrolysis of ATP catalyzed by (Na+ + K+)-ATPase is reported. The activity was studied in the presence of (i) Na+ (130 mM), K+ (20 mM) and micromolar ATP concentrations and Na+ (150 mM) the ('Na+-enzyme'). The data obtained lead to the following results: 1. The action of each enzyme may be described by a simple kinetic mechanism with one (Na+-enzyme) or two ((Na+ + K+)-enzyme) dead-end Mg complexes. 2. For both enzymes, both MgATP and free ATP are substrates, with Mg2+, in the latter case, as the second substrate. 3. For each enzyme, the complete set of kinetic constants (seven for the Na+-enzyme, eight for the (Na+ + K+)-enzyme) are determined from the data. 4. For each enzyme it is shown that, in the alternate substrate mechanism obtained, the ratio of net steady-state flux along the 'MgATP pathway' to that of the 'ATP-Mg pathway' increases linearly with the concentration of free Mg2+. The parameters of this function are determined from the data. As a result of this, at high (greater than 3 mM) free Mg2+ concentrations the alternate substrate mechanism degenerates into a 'limiting' kinetic mechanism, with MgATP as the (essentially) sole substrate, and Mg2+ as an uncompetitive (Na+-enzyme) or non-competitive ((Na+ + K+)-enzyme) inhibitor. 相似文献

Activation of membrane-associated thiamin triphosphatase from rat brain requires a divalent cation (Mg2+, Ca2+, or Mn2+). The optimum concentration of Mg2+ necessary for maximal enzyme activity varies with substrate concentration; conversely, the maximal rate of hydrolysis attainbale by increasing thiamin triphosphate concentration is directly proportional to [Mg2+] for all levels of Mg2+ below that of the substrate. Under appropriate conditions, the Km of the thiamin triphosphatase for Mg2+ and for thiamin triphosphate are shown to be identical. Dissociation constants (Kd) for the binding of Mg2+ to thiamin triphosphate, thiamin diphosphate, and thiamin were determined; kinetic data re-expressed in terms of [Mg2+-thiamin triphosphate] conform to simple single substrate predictions, suggesting that the true enzyme substrate may be the Mg2+-thiamin triphosphate complex. Excess free Mg2+ inhibits thiamin triphosphatase activity competitively while excess free thiamin triphosphate in concentrations up to 10 times Km has no effect on the membrane-bound enzyme. 相似文献

The kinetic properties of myo-inositol monophosphatase with different substrates were examined with respect to inhibition by fluoride, activation or inhibition by metal ions, pH profiles, and solvent isotope effects. F- is a competitive inhibitor versus 2'-AMP and glycerol 2-phosphate, but noncompetitive (Kis = Kii) versus DL-inositol 1-phosphate, all with Ki values of approximately 45 microM. Activation by Mg2+ follows sigmoid kinetics with Hill constants around 1.9, and random binding of substrate and metal ion. At high concentrations, Mg2+ acts as an uncompetitive inhibitor (Ki = 4.0 mM with DL-inositol 1-phosphate at pH 8.0 and 37 degrees C). Activation and inhibition constants, and consequently the optimal concentration of Mg2+, vary considerably with substrate structure and pH. Uncompetitive inhibition by Li+ and Mg2+ is mutually exclusive, suggesting a common binding site. Lithium binding decreases at low pH with a pK value of 6.4, and at high pH with a pK of 8.9, whereas magnesium inhibition depends on deprotonation with a pK of 8.3. The pH dependence of V suggests that two groups with pK values around 6.5 have to be deprotonated for catalysis. Solvent isotope effects on V and V/Km are greater than 2 and 1, respectively, regardless of the substrate, and proton inventories are linear. These results are consistent with a model where low concentrations of Mg2+ activate the enzyme by stabilizing the pentacoordinate phosphate intermediate. Li+ as well as Mg2+ at inhibiting concentrations bind to an additional site in the enzyme-substrate complex. Hydrolysis of the phosphate ester is rate limiting and facilitated by acid-base catalysis. 相似文献

Time-dependent 31P saturation-transfer studies were conducted with the Cd2+-activated form of muscle phosphoglucomutase to probe the origin of the 100-fold difference between its catalytic efficiency (in terms of kcat) and that of the more efficient Mg2+-activated enzyme. The present paper describes the equilibrium mixture of phosphoglucomutase and its substrate/product pair when the concentration of the Cd2+ enzyme approaches that of the substrate and how the nine-spin 31P NMR system provided by this mixture was treated. It shows that the presence of abortive complexes is not a significant factor in the reduced activity of the Cd2+ enzyme since the complex of the dephosphoenzyme and glucose 1,6-bisphosphate, which accounts for a large majority of the enzyme present at equilibrium, is catalytically competent. It also shows that rate constants for saturation transfer obtained at three different ratios of enzyme to free substrate are mutually compatible. These constants, which were measured at chemical equilibrium, can be used to provide a quantitative kinetic rationale for the reduced steady-state activity elicited by Cd2+ relative to Mg2+ [cf. Ray, W.J., Post, C.B., & Puvathingal, J.M. (1989) Biochemistry (following paper in this issue)]. They also provide minimal estimates of 350 and 150 s-1 for the rate constants describing (PO3-) transfer from the Cd2+ phosphoenzyme to the 6-position of bound glucose 1-phosphate and to the 1-position of bound glucose 6-phosphate, respectively. These minimal estimates are compared with analogous estimates for the Mg2+ and Li+ forms of the enzyme in the accompanying paper. 相似文献

Kinetic properties of the purified Ca2+-translocating ATPase from human erythrocyte plasma membrane 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The basic kinetic properties of the solubilized and purified Ca2+-translocating ATPase from human erythrocyte membranes were studied. A complex interaction between the major ligands (i.e., Ca2+, Mg2+, H+, calmodulin and ATP) and the enzyme was found. The apparent affinity of the enzyme for Ca2+ was inversely proportional to the concentration of free Mg2+ and H+, both in the presence or absence of calmodulin. In addition, the apparent affinity of the enzyme for Ca2+ was significantly increased by the presence of calmodulin at high concentrations of MgCl2 (5 mM), while it was hardly affected at low concentrations of MgCl2 (2 mM or less). In addition, the ATPase activity was inhibited by free Mg2+ in the millimolar concentration range. Evidence for a high degree of positive cooperativity for Ca2+ activation of the enzyme (Hill coefficient near to 4) was found in the presence of calmodulin in the slightly alkaline pH range. The degree of cooperativity induced by Ca2+ in the presence of calmodulin was decreased strongly as the pH decreased to acid values (Hill coefficient below 2). In the absence of calmodulin, the Hill coefficient was 2 or slightly below over the whole pH range tested. Two binding affinities of the enzyme for ATP were found. The apparent affinity of the enzyme for calmodulin was around 6 nM and independent of the Mg2+ concentration. The degree of stimulation of the ATPase activity by calmodulin was dependent on the concentrations of both Ca2+ and Mg2+ in the assay system. 相似文献

The expressions for the kinetic constants corresponding to the steady state model for hydrolysis of ATP catalyzed by (Na+ + K+)-ATPase proposed recently are analyzed with the object of determining the rate constants. The theoretical background for the necessary procedures is described. The results of this analysis are: (1) A small class (four) of rate constants are determined directly by the previously published values of the kinetic constants. (2) For a somewhat larger class of rate constants upper and lower bounds may be established. For several rate constants the upper and lower bounds differ by less than a factor 1.6 (for the "(Na+ + K+)-enzyme", i.e. the enzyme activity with K+ and millimolar substrate concentration) and 1.2 (for the "Na+-enzyme",i.e. the activity at micromolar substrate concentrations). (3) Experiments on inhibition by K+ of the Na+-enzyme at various Mg2+ concentrations are reported and analyzed. With the additional assumption that the rate constants governing the addition to ATP of Mg2+ is independent of whether or not ATP is bound to an enzyme molecule, a set of consistent values for all the 23 rate constants in the mechanism may be obtained. (4) The values of some rate constants lend further support to the contention discussed in a previous paper that the enzyme hydrolyzes ATP along two kinetically distinct pathways, depending on the presence of K+ and on the concentration of substrate, without the necessity of having more than one active substrate site per enzyme unit at any time. (5) The results show that while the two enzyme forms, the "Na+-enzyme" E1 and the "K+-enzyme" E2K, add substrate with (second order) rate constants of the same order of magnitude (differing only by a factor of four in favor of the former), the rate constants for the reverse processes differ by a factor of 100, being largest for the K+-enzyme. This is the main reason for the large difference in the Michaelis constants for the two forms reported previously. (6) Compatibility of the model with the well-known rapid dephosphorylation of the phosphorylated enzyme in the presence of K+ requires the presence, at non-zero steady state concentration, of an enzyme-potassium-phosphate intermediate, which is acid labile and is therefore not detected as a phosphorylated enzyme using conventional methods. 相似文献

The enzymic properties of alkaline phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.1) from pig kidney brush-border membranes were studied. 1. It hydrolyses ortho- and pyro-phosphate esters, the rate limiting step (V(max.)) being independent of the substrate. It transphosphorylates to Tris at concentrations above 0.1m-Tris. 2. The pH optimum for hydrolysis was between 9.8 and 10. The pK of the enzyme-substrate complex is 8.7 for p-nitrophenyl phosphate and beta-glycerophosphate. Excess of substrate inhibits the enzymic activity with decreasing pH. The pK of the substrate-inhibited enzyme-substrate complex, 8.7, is very similar to that for the enzyme-substrate complex. The pK values of the free enzyme appear to be 8.7 and 7.9. 3. Inactivation studies suggest that there is an essential tyrosine residue at the active centre of the enzyme. 4. The energy of activation (E) and the heat of activation (DeltaH) at pH9.5 showed a transition at 24.8 degrees C that was unaffected by Mg(2+). 5. Kinetic and atomic-absorption analysis indicated the essential role of two Zn(2+) ions/tetrameric enzyme for an ordered association of the monomers. Zn(2+) in excess and other bivalent ions compete for a second site with Mg(2+). Mg(2+) enhances only the rate-limiting step of substrate hydrolysis. 6. Amino acid inhibition studies classified the pig kidney enzyme as an intermediate type of previously described alkaline phosphatases. It has more similarity with the enzyme from liver and bone than with that from placenta. 相似文献

The Fe protein activating enzyme for Rhodospirillum rubrum nitrogenase was purified to approximately 90% homogeneity, using DE52-cellulose chromatography and sucrose density gradient centrifugation. Activating enzyme consists of a single polypeptide of molecular weight approximately 24,000. ATP was required for catalytic activity, but was relatively ineffective in the absence of Mg2+. When the concentration of MgATP2- was held in excess, there was an additional requirement for a free divalent metal ion (Mn2+) for enzyme activity. Kinetic experiments showed that the presence of Mg2+ influenced the apparent binding of Mn2+ by the enzyme, resulting in a lowering of the concentration of Mn2+ required to give half-maximum activity (K alpha) as the free Mg2+ concentration was increased. A low concentration of Mn2+ had a sparing effect on the requirement for free Mg2+. There is apparently a single metal-binding site on activating enzyme which preferentially binds Mn2+ as a positive effector, and free Mg2+ can compete for this site. 相似文献

A divalent cation electrode was used to measure the stability constants (association constants) for the magnesium and manganese complexes of the substrates for the NADP+-specific isocitrate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.42) from pea stems. At an ionic strength of 26.5 mM and at pH 7.4 the stability constants for the Mg2+-isocitrate and Mg2+-NADP+ complexes were 0.85 +/- 0.2 and 0.43 +/- 0.04 mM-1 respectively and for the Mn2+-isocitrate and Mn2+-NADP+ complexes they were 1.25 +/- 0.07 and 0.75 +/- 0.09 mM-1 respectively. At the same ionic strength but at pH 6.0 the Mg2+-NADPH and Mn2+-NADPH complexes had stability constants of 0.95 +/- 0.23 and 1.79 +/- 0.34 mM-1 respectively. Oxalosuccinate and alpha-ketoglutarate do not form measureable complexes under these conditions. Saturation kinetics of the enzyme with respect to isocitrate and metal ions are consistent with the metal-isocitrate complex being the substrate for the enzyme. NADP+ binds to the enzyme in the free form. Saturation kinetics of NADPH and Mn2+ indicate that the metal-NADPH complex is the substrate in the reverse reaction. In contrast the pig heart enzyme appears to bind free NADPH and Mn2+. A scheme for the reaction mechanism is presented and the difference between the reversibility of the NAD+ and NADP+ enzyme is discussed in relation to the stability of the NADH and NADPH metal complexes. 相似文献

NADP-isocitrate dehydrogenase [isocitrate:NADP(sup+) oxidoreductase (decarboxylating); EC 1.1.1.42] was purified from Cephalosporium acremonium as a single species. The enzyme is a dimer of 140 kDa with identical subunits of 75 kDa. The existence of a monomer-dimer equilibrium is apparent as revealed by an enzyme dilution approach. The chelate complex of the tribasic form of isocitrate and Mg(sup2+) is the true substrate. The V(infmax) depends on a basic form of an ionizable group of the enzyme-substrate complex with a pK(infes) (pK of the enzyme-substrate complex) of 6.9 and a (Delta)H(infion) (activation enthalpy) of -2 (plusmn) 0.4 kcal mol(sup-1) (ca. 8 (plusmn) 2 kJ mol(sup-1)). The enzyme showed maximum activity at 60(deg)C, an unusually high temperature for a nonthermophilic fungus. The thermodynamic parameters for isocitrate oxidative decarboxylation and for the binding of isocitrate and NADP(sup+) were calculated. We analyzed the kinetic thermal stability of the enzyme at pH 6.5 and 7.6. It was inactivated above 40(deg)C following a first-order kinetics. The presence of 12 mM Mg(sup2+) plus 10 mM dl-isocitrate led to 100% protection of enzyme activity against inactivation at 60(deg)C for 120 min. Removal of either or both compounds led to activity loss. A greater stabilizing role for Mg(sup2+) was seen at pH 6.5 than at pH 7.6, whereas the stabilizing effect of isocitrate was not dependent on pH. 相似文献

Acetohydroxyacid reductoisomerase was purified over 400-fold to a specific activity of 62 nkat.mg-1, with 2-aceto-2-hydroxybutyrate as substrate, from the stroma of spinach leaf chloroplasts. The enzyme was not intrinsically membrane bound. The native enzyme was a tetramer with a subunit Mr of 59,000. The activity was optimum between pH 7.5 and 8.5. The apparent Km for 2-acetolactate was 25 microM and for 2-aceto-2-hydroxybutyrate was 37 microM. The enzyme required Mg2+ and the Vmax. was attained at physiological Mg2+ concentrations. NADP+ competitively inhibited the reaction when NADPH was the varied substrate. The native enzyme eluted from Mono-Q ion-exchange resins as three distinct peaks of activity. This elution pattern was preserved when the peaks were combined, dialysed and re-chromatographed. Each form exhibited identical Mr of 59,000 after SDS/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE), whereas they were easily distinguishable from each other after PAGE under non-denaturing conditions. These results provide evidence for the existence of multiple forms of acetohydroxyacid reductoisomerase in chloroplasts isolated from spinach leaves. 相似文献

Purification and kinetic properties of human erythrocyte Mg2+-dependent inorganic pyrophosphatase 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
L Thuillier 《Biochimica et biophysica acta》1978,524(1):198-206
Inorganic pyrophosphatase (pyrophosphate phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.1) from human erythrocyte hemolysates has been purified up to 10 000-fold. The purified enzyme is homogenous and has a specific activity of 79.75 mumol PPi hydrolysed.min-1.mg-1 at pH 8 and 37 degrees C. It was confirmed that it is a dimer with a molecular weight of 42 000, composed of two identical protomers. From kinetic studies, it is proposed that human erythrocyte inorganic pyrophosphatase activity depends on free Mg2+ concentration in different ways. This ion constitutes part of the substrate (the Mg.PPi complex; Km = 1.4.10(-4) M) and probably acts as an allosteric activator (kinetic activation constant: KMg2+a = 7.5.10(-4) M). Equilibrium binding studies performed in the absence of PPi showed 4 binding sites for Mg2+, all having the same high affinity (dissociation constant: KMg2+d = 4.10(-6) M). Since the concentration of free Mg2+ in red blood cells is very low and may vary with the oxygenation state, it is likely that in vivo erythrocyte pyrophosphatase activity is regulated. 相似文献

An analysis of the influence of Na+ and K+ on the kinetics of Na+-ATPase in broken membrane preparations from bovine brain is presented with particular emphasis on the effect of the cations on the binding and splitting of the substrate MgATP and on the derivation of a detailed kinetic model for that interaction. It was found that the enzyme in the absence of Na+ and K+, but in the presence of 7 mM free Mg2+, at pH 7.4 (37 degrees C) exhibits an ouabain-sensitive ATPase activity. The simplest model quantitatively compatible with all the data involves two different, interconvertible (conformational) forms of the enzyme, E1 and E'1, with the following properties: The E1 form does not bind K+ but has three independent and equivalent high-affinity sites (Kd = 5.6 mM) for Na+. It binds and hydrolyzes substrate only when two or three sodium ions are bound to it. The E'1 form binds and hydrolyzes the substrate only in the absence of monovalent cations. It is competitively inhibited by K+ (Kd = 0.23 mM), and this inhibition is further enhanced by binding of Na+ to the K+-bound form at two equivalent, independent sites (Kd = 12 mM). It is suggested that the E'1 form is the Mg2+-induced conformational state of the enzyme observed by others, which differs from the usually encountered E1 and E2 forms. The model allows the calculation of ATP-binding and ADP-releasing rate constants for the E1-form for later comparison with corresponding rate constants for the (na+ + K+)-ATPase (following paper). 相似文献

A common feature of all the proposed mechanisms for monoamine oxidase is the initiation of catalysis with the deprotonated form of the amine substrate in the enzyme-substrate complex. However, recent steady-state kinetic studies on the pH dependence of monoamine oxidase led to the suggestion that it is the protonated form of the amine substrate that binds to the enzyme. To investigate this further, the pH dependence of monoamine oxidase A was characterized by both steady-state and stopped-flow techniques with protiated and deuterated substrates. For all substrates used, there is a macroscopic ionization in the enzyme-substrate complex attributed to a deprotonation event required for optimal catalysis with a pK(a) of 7.4-8.4. In stopped-flow assays, the pH dependence of the kinetic isotope effect decreases from approximately 13 to 8 with increasing pH, leading to assignment of this catalytically important deprotonation to that of the bound amine substrate. The acid limb of the bell-shaped pH profile for the rate of flavin reduction over the substrate binding constant (k(red)/K(s), reporting on ionizations in the free enzyme and/or free substrate) is due to deprotonation of the free substrate, and the alkaline limb is due to unfavourable deprotonation of an unknown group on the enzyme at high pH. The pK(a) of the free amine is above 9.3 for all substrates, and is greatly perturbed (DeltapK(a) approximately 2) on binding to the enzyme active site. This perturbation of the substrate amine pK(a) on binding to the enzyme has been observed with other amine oxidases, and likely identifies a common mechanism for increasing the effective concentration of the neutral form of the substrate in the enzyme-substrate complex, thus enabling efficient functioning of these enzymes at physiologically relevant pH. 相似文献

Calcium accumulation by purified vesicles derived from basolateral membranes of kidney proximal tubules was reversibly inhibited by micromolar concentrations of 4,4'-diisothiocyanatostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid (DIDS), an inhibitor of anion transport. The inhibitory effect of this compound on Ca2+ uptake cannot be attributed solely to the inhibition of anion transport: (Ca(2+)+Mg2+)ATPase and ATP-dependent Ca2+ transport, respectively. The rate constant of EGTA-induced Ca2+ efflux from preloaded vesicles was not affected by DIDS, indicating that this compound does not increase the permeability of the membrane vesicles to Ca2+. In the presence of DIDS, the effects of the physiological ligands Ca2+, Mg2+, and ATP on (Ca(2+)+Mg2+)ATPase activity were modified. The Ca2+ concentration that inhibited (Ca(2+)+Mg2+)ATPase activity in the low-affinity range decreased from 91 to 40 microM, but DIDS had no effect on the Km for Ca2+ in the high-affinity, stimulatory range. Free Mg2+ activated (Ca(2+)+Mg2+)ATPase activity at a low Ca2+ concentration, and DIDS impaired this stimulation in a noncompetitive fashion. The inhibition by DIDS was eliminated when the free ATP concentration of the medium was raised from 0.3 to 8 mM, possibly due to an increase in the turnover of the enzyme caused by free ATP accelerating the E2----E1 transition, and leading to a decrease in the proportion of E2 forms under steady-state conditions. Alkaline pH totally abolished the inhibition of the (Ca(2+)+Mg2+)ATPase activity by DIDS, with a half-maximal effect at pH 8.3.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The original proposal of Saier stating that P-enolpyruvate-dependent mannitol phosphorylation is catalyzed by the monomeric form of the bacterial phosphotransferase enzyme IImtl, which would be the form predominantly existing in the phospholipid bilayer, whereas mannitol/mannitol-P exchange would depend on the transient formation of functional dimers, is refuted [Saier, M.H. (1980) J. Supramol. Struct. 14, 281-294]. The correct interpretation of the proportional relation between the rate of mannitol phosphorylation in the overall reaction and the enzyme concentration is that enzyme IImtl is dimeric under the conditions employed. Differences measured in the enzyme concentration dependency of the overall and exchange reactions were caused by different assay conditions. The dimer is favored over the monomer at high ionic strength and basic pH. Mg2+ ions bind specifically to enzyme IImtl, inducing dimerization. A complex formed by mixing inorganic phosphate, F-, and Mg2+ at sufficiently high concentrations inhibits enzyme IImtl, in part, by dissociation of the dimer. Enzyme IImtl was dimeric in 25 mM Tris, pH 7.6, and 5 mM Mg2+ over a large enzyme concentration range and under many different turnover conditions. The association/dissociation equilibrium was demonstrated in phosphate bufers, pH 6.3. The dimer was the most active form both in the overall and in the exchange reaction under the conditions assayed. The monomer was virtually inactive in mannitol/mannitol-P exchange but retained 25% of the activity in the overall reaction. 相似文献
