Abstract: | The gene encoding dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase from Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Rv0462, was expressed in Escherichia coli and the protein purified to homogeneity. The 49 kDa polypeptide forms a homodimer containing one tightly bound molecule of FAD/monomer. The results of steady-state kinetic analyses using several reduced pyridine nucleotide analogs and a variety of electron acceptors, and the ability of the enzyme to catalyze the transhydrogenation of NADH and thio-NAD(+) in the absence of D,L-lipoamide, demonstrated that the enzyme uses a ping-pong kinetic mechanism. Primary deuterium kinetic isotope effects on V and V/K at pH 7.5 using NADH deuterated at the C(4)-proS position of the nicotinamide ring are small (D)(V/K)(NADH) = 1.12 +/- 0.15, (D)V(app) = 1.05 +/- 0.07] when D,L-lipoamide is the oxidant but large and equivalent (D)(V/K)(NADH) = (D)V = 2.95 +/- 0.03] when 5-hydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinone is the oxidant. Solvent deuterium kinetic isotope effects at pH 5.8, using APADH as the reductant, are inverse with (D)(V/K)(APADH) = 0.73 +/- 0.03, (D)(V/K)(Lip(S))2 = 0.77 +/- 0.03, and (D)V(app) = 0.77 +/- 0.01. Solvent deuterium kinetic isotope effects with 4,4-dithiopyridine (DTP), the 4-thiopyridone product of which requires no protonation, are also inverse with (D)(V/K)(APADH) = 0.75 +/- 0.06, (D)(V/K)(DTP) = 0.71 +/- 0.02, and (D)V(app) = 0.56 +/- 0.15. All proton inventories were linear, indicating that a single proton is being transferred in the solvent isotopically sensitive step. Taken together, these results suggest that (1) the reductive half-reaction (hydride transfer from NADH to FAD) is rate limiting when a quinone is the oxidant, and (2) deprotonation of enzymic thiols, most likely Cys(46) and Cys(41), limits the reductive and oxidative half-reactions, respectively, when D,L-lipoamide is the oxidant. |
