Mechanism Of The Reaction

1. The forward and reverse reactions catalysed by ATP-creatine phosphotransferase have been studied kinetically at pH8.0 in the presence and absence of products, under conditions in which the free Mg(2+) concentration was maintained constant at 1mm. Thus at fixed pH the reaction may be considered as being bireactant and expressed as:MgATP(2-)+creatine(0)right harpoon over left harpoonMgADP(-)+phosphocreatine(2-)2. The initial-velocity pattern in the absence of products and the product-inhibition pattern have been determined. These are consistent with a random mechanism in which all steps are in rapid equilibrium except that concerned with the interconversion of the central ternary complexes, and in which two dead-end complexes (enzyme-MgADP-creatine and enzyme-MgATP-phosphocreatine) are formed. The results are in accord with previous suggestions that the enzyme possesses distinct sites for the combination of the nucleotide and guanidino substrates. 3. Values have been determined for the Michaelis and dissociation constants involved in the combination of each substrate with various enzyme forms. Although these values cannot be regarded as absolute, they appear to indicate that the presence of one substrate on the enzyme enhances the combination of the second substrate. In addition, it would seem that in the formation of the enzyme-MgADP-creatine complex the concentration of one reactant does not affect the combination of the other. This contrasts with the formation of the enzyme-MgATP-phosphocreatine complex, where each reactant hinders the combination of the other.

Mechanism Of The Reaction

1. The glutathione S-transferase that catalyses the reaction of 1-menaphthyl (naphth-1-ylmethyl) sulphate with GSH was purified 76-fold from rat liver. 2. The properties of the purified enzyme were studied by gel filtration and isoelectric focusing. 3. The initial-velocity pattern in the absence of products and the product-inhibition pattern have been determined. These are consistent with an Ordered Bi Bi mechanism in which the GSH adds to the enzyme before 1-menaphthyl sulphate and the products are released in the order SO42−followed by S-(1-menaphthyl)glutathione. 4. Dead-end-inhibition studies with p-aminobenzoic acid, which has been shown to be competitive with GSH and non-competitive with 1-menaphthyl sulphate, support the suggestion that an Ordered Bi Bi mechanism is operative. 5. Values were determined for some of the dissociation and Michaelis constants for the reaction of the substrates and products with the enzyme. 6. It appears that S-(1-menaphthyl)glutathione activates the enzyme when the concentration of GSH is saturating and that of 1-menaphthyl sulphate is low (of the order of its Michaelis constant).

Glyoxylate Reductase

Kinetic analysis of substrate specificity revealed that a recombinant Arabidopsis protein catalyzes the conversion of glyoxylate to glycolate (Km,glyoxylate = 4.5 μmol·L–1) and succinic semialdehyde (SSA) to γ-hydroxybutyrate (Km, SSA = 0.87 mmol·L–1) via an essentially irreversible, NADPH-based mechanism. In this report, the enzyme was further characterized via initial-velocity, dead-end inhibition and product inhibition studies. The kinetic mechanism was ordered Bi Bi, involving the complexation of NADPH to the enzyme before glyoxylate or SSA, and the release of NADP+ before glycolate or γ-hydroxybutyrate, respectively. It can be concluded that the enzyme functions as a NADPH-dependent glyoxylate reductase (EC 1.1.1.79) or possibly an aldehyde reductase (EC 1.1.1.2), and the kinetic mechanism involved is consistent with that found in members of both the aldo-keto reductase and 3-hydroxyisobutyrate dehydrogenase-related superfamilies of enzymes. Since NADP+ was an effective competitive inhibitor with respect to NADPH (Ki = 1–3 µmol·L–1), it is proposed that the ratio of NADPH/NADP+ regulates enzymatic activity in planta.

Inhibition Studies

The kinetic mechanism of guinea-pig lung carbonyl reductase was studied at pH 7 in the forward reaction with five carbonyl substrates and NAD(P)H and in the reverse reaction with propan-2-ol and NAD(P)+. In each case the enzyme mechanism was sequential, and product-inhibition studies were consistent with a di-iso ordered bi bi mechanism, in which NAD(P)H binds to the enzyme first and NAD(P)+ leaves last and the binding of cofactor induces isomerization. The kinetic and binding studies of the cofactors and several inhibitors such as pyrazole, benzoic acid, Cibacron Blue and benzamide indicate that the cofactor and Cibacron Blue bind to the free enzyme whereas the other inhibitors bind to the binary and/or ternary complexes.

Inhibition Studies

Initial velocity and product inhibition studies have been performed on soluble catechol-O-methyltransferase which has been partially purified from pig liver. The results are consistent with an ordered reaction mechanism, in which S-adenosyl-L-methionine (AdoMet) is the leading substrate. The enzyme is irreversibly inhibited by maleimide derivatives in a biphasic manner, which suggests a differential reaction with two thiol groups. N-(3,4-Dihydroxyphenyl)maleimide, which has a reactive moiety (maleimide ring) and an affinity moiety (catechol ring), acts as an affinity labelling compound on the more reactive SH group; AdoMet and Mg2+ protect against this modification. Total protection of this SH group results in a pseudo-first-order inhibition of the enzyme, with the apparent rate constant being proportional to the inhibitor concentration. All the other maleimide derivatives studied inhibited the enzyme by reacting with one of the two SH groups in a non-specific manner. The reaction of the other, more reactive, SH group was either specific (active-site-directed) or non-specific, depending on the substituent present in the affinity moiety and also on the length of an intermediate chain of methylene groups present between this moiety and the reactive maleimide ring. In the presence of both AdoMet and Mg2+, 3,5-dinitrocatechol, a reversible inhibitor of the enzyme which is competitive with respect to the catechol substrate, protects the enzyme from inactivation by any of the maleimide derivatives. The adducts of these maleimide derivatives formed with dithiothreitol inhibit the enzyme reversibly, showing inhibition patterns that are consistent with the mechanism deduced from the initial velocity and product inhibition studies.

1. Initial rates of oxidative deamination of L-glutamate with NAD+ as coenzyme, and of reductive aminiation of 2-oxoglutarate with NADH as coenzyme, catalysed by bovine liver glutamate dehydrogenase were measured in 0.111 M-sodium phosphate buffer, pH 7, at 25 degrees C, in the absence and presence of product inhibitors. All 12 possible combinations of variable substrate and product inhibitor were used. 2. Strict competition was observed between NAD+ and NADH, and between glutamate and 2-oxoglutarate. All other inhibition patterns were clearly non-competitive, except for inhibition by NH4+ with NAD+ as variable substrate. Here the extrapolation did not permit a clear distinction between competitive and non-competitive inhibition. 3. Mutually non-competitive behaviour between glutamate and NH4+ indicates that these substrates can be bound at the active site simultaneously. 4. Primary Lineweaver-Burk plots and derived secondary plots of slopes and intercepts against inhibitor concentration were linear, with one exception: with 2-oxoglutarate as variable substrate, the replot of primary intercepts against inhibitory NAD+ concentration was curved. 5. Separate Ki values were evaluated for the effect of each product inhibitor on the individual terms in the reciprocal initial-rate equations. With this information it is possible to calculate rates for any combination of substrate concentrations within the experimental range with any concentration of a single product inhibitor. 6. The inhibition patterns are consistent with neither a simple compulsory-order mechanism nor a rapid-equilibrium random-order mechanism without modification. They can, however, be reconciled with either type of mechanism by postulating appropirate abortive complexes. Of the two compulsory sequences that have been proposed, one, that in which the order of binding is NADH, NH4+, 2-oxoglutarate, requires an implausible pattern of abortive complex-formation to account for the results. 7. On the basis of a rapid-equilibrium random-order mechanism, dissociation constants can be calculated from the Ki values. Where these can be compared with independent estimates from the kinetics of the uninhibited reaction or from direct measurements of substrate binding, the agreement is reasonable good. On balance, therefore, the results provide further support for the rapid-equilibrium random-order mechanism under these conditions.

Drosophila Adh

The Drosophila melanogaster alleloenzymes AdhS and AdhF have been studied with respect to product inhibition by using the two substrate couples propan-2-ol/acetone and ethanol/acetaldehyde together with the coenzyme couple NAD+/NADH. With both substrate couples the reaction was consistent with an ordered Bi Bi mechanism. The substrates added to the enzyme in a compulsory order, with coenzyme as the leading substrate, to give two interconverting ternary complexes. The second ternary complex broke down with release of products in an obligatory order, with the aldehyde/ketone leaving first. Both the acetaldehyde and acetone products formed binary complexes with the enzyme that affected NAD+ binding. However, only an enzyme-acetone complex seemed to affect NADH binding and hence the reverse reaction. The inhibitory pattern with acetaldehyde as product was also affected by the formation of a ternary enzyme-NAD(+)-acetaldehyde complex, which broke down to acetic acid and NADH. The product-inhibition pattern shown in the present work is different from that published for Drosophila Adh previously and this discrepancy can not be explained by the use of different variants of Drosophila Adh.

Rat liver 3 alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (3 alpha-HSD) (EC 1.1.1.50) is an NAD(P)(+)-dependent oxidoreductase that is potently inhibited at its active site by non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Initial-velocity and product-inhibition studies performed in either direction at pH 7.0 are consistent with a sequential ordered Bi Bi mechanism in which pyridine nucleotide binds first and leaves last. This mechanism is supported by fluorescence titrations of the E-NADH complex, and by the failure to detect the binding of either [3H]androsterone or [3H]androstanedione to free enzyme by equilibrium dialysis. Dead-end inhibition studies with NSAIDs also support this mechanism. Initial-velocity studies with indomethacin show that this drug is an uncompetitive inhibitor against NAD+, but a potent competitive inhibitor against androsterone, indicating the ordered formation of an E.NAD+.indomethacin complex. Calculation of the individual rate constants reveals that the binding and release of pyridine nucleotide is rate-limiting and that isomerization of the central complex is favoured in the forward direction. Equilibrium dialysis experiments with [14C]indomethacin reveal the presence of two abortive NSAID complexes, a high-affinity ternary complex corresponding to E.NAD+.indomethacin (Kd = 1-2 microM for indomethacin) and a low-affinity binary complex corresponding to E.indomethacin (Kd = 22 microM for indomethacin). Since indomethacin has a low affinity for free enzyme, the formation of this abortive binary complex does not complicate kinetic measurements which are made in the presence of NAD+, but may contribute to the inhibition of the enzyme by NSAIDs. Using either pro-R-[4-3H]NADH or pro-S-[4-3H]NADH as cofactor, radiolabelled androsterone was formed only when the pro-R-[4-3H]NADH was used, confirming that purified 3 alpha-HSD is a Class A dehydrogenase.

Enzyme Functions

In plants, sulfur must be obtained from the environment and assimilated into usable forms for metabolism. ATP sulfurylase catalyses the thermodynamically unfavourable formation of a mixed phosphosulfate anhydride in APS (adenosine 5′-phosphosulfate) from ATP and sulfate as the first committed step of sulfur assimilation in plants. In contrast to the multi-functional, allosterically regulated ATP sulfurylases from bacteria, fungi and mammals, the plant enzyme functions as a mono-functional, non-allosteric homodimer. Owing to these differences, here we examine the kinetic mechanism of soybean ATP sulfurylase [GmATPS1 (Glycine max (soybean) ATP sulfurylase isoform 1)]. For the forward reaction (APS synthesis), initial velocity methods indicate a single-displacement mechanism. Dead-end inhibition studies with chlorate showed competitive inhibition versus sulfate and non-competitive inhibition versus APS. Initial velocity studies of the reverse reaction (ATP synthesis) demonstrate a sequential mechanism with global fitting analysis suggesting an ordered binding of substrates. ITC (isothermal titration calorimetry) showed tight binding of APS to GmATPS1. In contrast, binding of PPi (pyrophosphate) to GmATPS1 was not detected, although titration of the E•APS complex with PPi in the absence of magnesium displayed ternary complex formation. These results suggest a kinetic mechanism in which ATP and APS are the first substrates bound in the forward and reverse reactions, respectively.
