The arginine-specific reagents 2,3-butanedione and phenylglyoxal inactivate pig kidney alkaline phosphatase. As inactivation proceeds there is a progressive fall in Vmax. of the enzyme, but no demonstrable change in the Km value for substrate. Pi, a competitive inhibitor, and AMP, a substrate of the enzyme, protect alkaline phosphatase against the arginine-specific reagents. These effects are explicable by the assumption that the enzyme contains an essential arginine residue at the active site. Protection is also afforded by the uncompetitive inhibitor NADH through a partially competive action against the reagents. Enzyme that has been exposed to the reagents has a decreased sensitivity to NADH inhibition. It is suggested that an arginine residue is important for NADH binding also, although this residue is distinct from that at the catalytic site. The protection given by NADH against loss of activity is indicative of the close proximity of the active and NADH sites.

The sialidase from Salmonella typhimurium LT2 was characterized by using photoaffinity-labelling techniques. The well-known sialidase inhibitor 5-acetamido-2,6-anhydro-3,5-dideoxy-D-glycero-D-galacto-non- 2-enonic acid (Neu5Ac2en) was modified to contain an amino group at C-9, which permitted the incorporation of 4-azidosalicylic acid in amide linkage at this position. Labelling of the purified protein with the radioactive (125I) photoprobe was determined to be highly specific for a region within the active-site cavity. This conclusion was based on the observation that the competitive inhibitor Neu5Ac2en in the photolysis mixture prevented labelling of the protein. In contrast, compounds with structural and chemical features similar to the probe and Neu5Ac2en, but which were not competitive enzyme inhibitors, did not affect the photolabelling of the protein. The peptide interacting with the probe was identified by CNBr treatment of the labelled protein, followed by N-terminal sequence analysis. Inspection of the primary structure of the protein, predicted from the cloned structural gene for the sialidase [Hoyer, Hamilton, Steenbergen & Vimr (1992) Mol. Microbiol. 6, 873-884] revealed that the label was incorporated into a 9.6 kDa fragment situated within the terminal third of the molecule near the C-terminal end. Secondary-structural predictions using the Garnier-Robson algorithm [Garnier, Osguthorpe & Robson (1978) J. Mol. Biol. 120, 97-120] of the labelled peptide revealed a structural similarity to the active site of influenza-A- and Sendai-HN-virus sialidases with a repetitive series of alternating beta-sheets connected with loops.
