Abstract: | - 1.1. Changes in the spectrum of pyridoxal phosphate (PLP) were produced by adding an equimolar amount of native thymidylate synthase, but not by adding denatured enzyme or enzyme modified by sulfhydryl-blocking reagents.
- 2.2. The dissociation constant of the thymidylate synthase-PLP complex determined by equilibrium dialysis was 9 ± 1.6 μM, the maximum number of PLP molecules bound per molecule of native thymidylate synthase was 2.5 ± 0.4, and the Hill coefficient was 0.97.
- 3.3. No evidence of PLP binding was found with denatured thymidylate synthase, and only slight binding was observed when enzyme SH groups were blocked or when the active site was blocked with 5-fluorodeoxyuridylate (FdUMP) and methylenetetrahydrofoliate.
- 4.4. The presence of dUMP, dTMP, or FdUMP interfered with the binding of PLP to thymidylate synthase, and the presence of equimolar amounts of PLP interfered with the binding of dUMP.
