Abstract:Atomic spectroscopy of native yeast inorganic pyrophosphatase (pyrophosphate phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.1) after gel filtration showed that it only binds activating Mg2% in an easily dissociable manner. Formation of a covalent intermediate between the enzyme and an entire substrate molecular in the presence of fluoride, however, dramatically strengthened the binding of two Mg2+ per subunit and eliminated at neutral pH the effect of added metals on protein fluorescence but not on the absorption spectrum, suggesting that different mental binding sites influence the two spectra. This conclusion was confirmed by spectra studied on native enzyme. A third, low-affinity site for Mg2+ was found on the enzyme pH greater than 8. A model of enzyme-substrate-metal interactions was proposed, according to which the fluorescence-controlling site belongs to the active center and substrate can only be bound to it as a 1 : 1 complex with metals.
