The pre-steady-state kinetics of phosphate formation from 5-enolpyruvylshikimate 3-phosphate catalysed by Escherichia coli chorismate synthase (EC 4.6.1.4) were studied by a rapid-acid-quench technique at 25 degrees C at pH 7.5. No pre-steady-state ‘burst’ or ‘lag’ phase was observed, showing that phosphate is released concomitant with the rate-limiting step of the enzyme. The implications of this result for the mechanism of action of chorismate synthase are discussed.

The steady-state kinetics of purified cytoplasmic aldehyde dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.3) from human erythrocytes have been studied at 37 degrees C. Previous studies of the enzyme from several mammalian sources, which used a lower assay temperature, have been difficult to interpret because of the substrate activation by acetaldehyde which led to complex kinetic behaviour. At 37 degrees C the initial-rate data do not depart significantly from Michaelis-Menten kinetics. Studies of the variation of initial rates as a function of the concentrations of both substrates and studies of the inhibition by NADH were consistent with a sequential mechanism being followed. High-substrate inhibition by acetaldehyde was competitive with respect to NAD+. The enzyme was not inhibited by the product acetate and thus the results of these studies, although consistent with an ordered mechanism in which NAD+ was the first substrate to bind, were inconclusive. That such a mechanism was followed was confirmed by determination of the initial-rate behaviour in the presence of acetaldehyde and glycolaldehyde as alternative substrates. When the reciprocal of the initial rate of NADH formation was plotted against the acetaldehyde concentration at a series of fixed ratios between that substrate and glycolaldehyde, a linear ‘mixed inhibition’ pattern was obtained, confirming the mechanism to be ordered with NAD+ being the leading substrate and with kinetically significant ternary complex-formation.

Zero-trans kinetics of Na+-sugar cotransport were investigated. Sugar influx was measured at various sodium and sugar concentrations in K+-loaded cells treated with rotenone and valinomycin. Sugar influx follows Michaelis-Menten kinetics as a function of sugar concentration but not as a function of Na+ concentration. Nine models with 1:1 or 2:1 sodium:sugar stoichiometry were considered. The flux equations for these models were solved assuming steady-state distribution of carrier forms and that translocation across the membrane is rate limiting. Classical enzyme kinetic methods and a least-squares fit of flux equations to the experimental data were used to assess the fit of the different models. Four models can be discarded on this basis. Of the remaining models, we discard two on the basis of the trans sodium dependence and the coupling stoichiometry [G. A. Kimmich and J. Randles, Am. J. Physiol. 247 (Cell Physiol. 16): C74-C82, 1984]. The remaining models are terter ordered mechanisms with sodium debinding first at the trans side. If transfer across the membrane is rate limiting, the binding order can be determined to be sodium:sugar:sodium.
