Inhibition Studies

Initial velocity and product inhibition studies of phosphoribosyl-formylglycineamidine synthetase indicate that the reaction involves a fully ping pong mechanism in which glutamine binds to the free enzyme and glutamate is released before the addition of ATP. ADP is released, and phosphoribosyl-formylglycineamide then binds; the liberation of Pi is rapid, and phosphoribosyl-formylglycineamidine is the last product released from the enzyme. The Km values for glutamine, ATP, and phosphoribosyl-formylglycineamide are 1.1 × 10−4 M, 1.5 × 10−3 M, and 1.1 × 10−4 M, respectively. The Km value for ammonium chloride is 7.5 × 10−3 M, and the ratio of Vmax values with ammonium chloride and glutamine is 1/40. The inhibition constants for FGAM and Pi were calculated to be 1.3 × 10−4 M and 6.45 × 10−3 M, respectively.

Inhibition Studies

Initial-rate studies of the low-Km aldehyde reductase-catalysed reduction of pyridine-3-aldehyde by NADPH gave families of parallel double-reciprocal plots, consistent with a double-displacement mechanism being obeyed. Studies on the variation of the initial velocity with the concentration of a mixture of the two substrates were also consistent with a double-displacement mechanism. In contrast, the initial-rate data indicated that a sequential mechanism was followed when NADH was used as the coenzyme. Product-inhibition studies, however, indicated that a compulsory-order mechanism was followed in which NADPH bound before pyridine-3-aldehyde with a ternary complex being formed and the release of pyrid-3-ylcarbinol before NADP+. The apparently parallel double-reciprocal plots obtained in the initial-rate studies with NADPH and pyridine-3-aldehyde were thus attributed to the apparent dissociation constant for the binary complex between the enzyme and coenzyme being finite but very low.

Concerted Reaction

Inhibition studies of glucokinase were carried out with the products of the reaction, glucose 6-phosphate and MgADP-, as well as with ADP3-, Mg2+ and ATP4-. The results of these, together with those of kinetic studies of the uninhibited reaction described previously [Storer & Cornish-Bowden (1976) Biochem. J. 159, 7-14], indicate that the enzyme obeys a ‘mnemonical’ mechanism. This implies that the co-operativity observed with glucose as substrate arises because glucose binds differentially to two forms of the free enzyme that are not in equilibrium under steady-state conditions. The mechanism predicts the decrease in glucose co-operativity observed at low concentrations of MgATP2-. The product-inhibition results suggest that glucose 6-phosphate is released first and that it is possibly displaced by MgATP2- in a concerted reaction.

Inhibition Studies

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.

Inhibition Studies

Malonyl-CoA synthetase catalyses the formation of malonyl-CoA directly from malonate and CoA with hydrolysis of ATP into AMP and PP1. The catalytic mechanism of malonyl-CoA synthetase from Bradyrhizobium japonicum was investigated by steady-state kinetics. Initial-velocity studies and the product-inhibition studies with AMP and PPi strongly suggested ordered Bi Uni Uni Bi Ping Pong Ter Ter system as the most probable steady-state kinetic mechanism of malonyl-CoA synthetase. Michaelis constants were 61 microM, 260 microM and 42 microM for ATP, malonate and CoA respectively, and the value for Vmax, was 11.2 microM/min. The t.l.c. analysis of the 32P-labelled products in a reaction mixture containing [gamma-32P]ATP in the absence of CoA showed that PPi was produced after the sequential addition of ATP and malonate. Formation of malonyl-AMP, suggested as an intermediate in the kinetically deduced mechanism, was confirmed by the analysis of 31P-n.m.r. spectra of an AMP product isolated from the 18O-transfer experiment using [18O]malonate. The 31P-n.m.r. signal of the AMP product appeared at 0.024 p.p.m. apart from that of [16O4]AMP, indicating that one atom of 18O transferred from [18O]malonate to AMP through the formation of malonyl-AMP. Formation of malonyl-AMP was also confirmed through the t.l.c. analysis of reaction mixture containing [alpha-32P]ATP. These results strongly support the ordered Bi Uni Uni Bi Pin Pong Ter Ter mechanism deduced from initial-velocity and product-inhibition studies.

A kinetic analysis including initial-velocity and product-inhibition studies were performed with spermine synthase purified from bovine brain. The enzyme activity was assayed in the presence of 5′-methylthioadenosine phosphorylase as an auxiliary enzyme to prevent the accumulation of the inhibitory product, 5′-methylthioadenosine, and thus to obtain linearity of the reaction with time. Initial-velocity studies gave intersecting or converging linear double-reciprocal plots. No substrate inhibition by decarboxylated S-adenosylmethionine was observed at concentrations up to 0.4 mM. Apparent Michaelis constants were 60 microM for spermidine and 0.1 microM for decarboxylated S-adenosylmethionine. Spermine was a competitive product inhibitor with respect to decarboxylated S-adenosylmethionine, but a mixed one with respect to the other substrate, spermidine. 5′-Methylthioadenosine showed a mixed inhibition with both substrates, predominantly competitive with respect to decarboxylated S-adenosylmethionine and predominantly uncompetitive with respect to spermidine. The observed kinetic and inhibition patterns are consistent with a compulsory-order mechanism, where both substrates add to the enzyme before products can be released.

The NADH-dependent morphinone reductase from Pseudomonas putida M10 catalyses the reduction of morphinone and codeinone to hydromorphone and hydrocodone respectively. Morphinone reductase was purified from crude cell extracts to apparent homogeneity in a single affinity-chromatography step using Mimetic Yellow 2. The purified enzyme was a dimeric flavoprotein with two identical subunits of M(r) 41,100, binding non-covalently one molecule of FMN per subunit. The N-terminal sequence was PDTSFSNPGLFTPLQ. Morphinone reductase was active against morphinone, codeinone, neopinone and 2-cyclohexen-1-one, but not against morphine, codeine or isocodeine. The apparent Km values for codeinone and 2-cyclohexen-1-one were 0.26 mM and 5.5 mM respectively. The steroids progesterone and cortisone were potent competitive inhibitors; the apparent K1 for cortisone was 35 microM. The pH optimum for codeinone reduction was 8.0 in phosphate buffer. No reverse reaction could be detected, and NADPH could not be used as a reducing substrate in place of NADH. Morphinone reductase activity was strongly inhibited by 0.01 mM CuSO4 and p-hydroxymercuribenzoate, suggesting the presence of a vital thiol group. Steady-state kinetic studies suggested a Ping Pong (substituted enzyme) kinetic mechanism; however, product-inhibition patterns were inconsistent with a classical Ping Pong mechanism. Morphinone reductase may, like several other flavoprotein dehydrogenases, operate by a hybrid two-site Ping Pong mechanism.

NAD+-dependent L-valine dehydrogenase was purified 180-fold from Streptomyces cinnamonensis, and to homogeneity, as judged by gel electrophoresis. The enzyme has an Mr of 88,000, and appears to be composed of subunits of Mr 41,200. The enzyme catalyses the oxidative deamination of L-valine, L-leucine, L-2-aminobutyric acid, L-norvaline and L-isoleucine, as well as the reductive amination of their 2-oxo analogues. The enzyme requires NAD+ as the only cofactor, which cannot be replaced by NADP+. The enzyme activity is significantly decreased by thiol-reactive reagents, although purine and pyrimidine bases, and nucleotides, do not affect activity. Initial-velocity and product-inhibition studies show that the reductive amination proceeds through a sequential ordered ternary-binary mechanism; NADH binds to the enzyme first, followed by 2-oxoisovalerate and NH3, and valine is released first, followed by NAD+. The Michaelis constants are as follows; L-valine, 1.3 mM; NAD+, 0.18 mM; NADH, 74 microM; 2-oxoisovalerate, 0.81 mM; and NH3, 55 mM. The pro-S hydrogen at C-4′ of NADH is transferred to the substrate; the enzyme is B-stereospecific. It is proposed that the enzyme catalyses the first step of valine catabolism in this organism.

Inhibition Studies

The XL-I form of xenobiotic/medium-chain fatty acid:CoA ligase was purified to apparent homogeneity from bovine liver mitochondria and used to determine the reaction mechanism. A tersubstrate kinetic analysis was conducted by varying the concentrations of ATP, benzoate and CoA in turn. Both ATP and benzoate gave parallel double-reciprocal plots against CoA, which indicates a Ping Pong mechanism, with either pyrophosphate or AMP leaving before the binding of CoA. Addition of pyrophosphate to the assays changed the plots from parallel to intersecting; addition of AMP did not. This indicates that pyrophosphate is the product that leaves before binding of CoA. Based on end-product inhibition studies, it was concluded that the reaction follows a Bi Uni Uni Bi Ping Pong mechanism, with ATP binding first, followed in order by benzoate binding, pyrophosphate release, CoA binding, benzoyl-CoA release and AMP release. A similar mechanism was obtained when the ligase was examined with butyrate as substrate. However, butyrate activation was characterized by a much higher affinity for CoA. This is attributed to steric factors resulting from the bulkier nature of the benzoate molecule. Also, with butyrate there is a bivalent cation activation distinct from that associated with binding to ATP. This activation by excess Mg2+ results in non-linear plots of 1/v against 1/[ATP] for butyrate unless the concentrations of Mg2+ and ATP are varied together.

1. Secondary-amine mono-oxygenase (proposed EC group 1.14.99.-) was partially purified from trimethylamine-grown Pseudomonas aminovorans by (NH4)2SO4 fractionation, gel filtration, hydrophobic chromatography on 5-aminopentylamino-Sepharose, and affinity chromatography on Sepharose-bound NADH. 2. Some problems in the affinity-chromatography step are discussed. 3. A steady-state kinetic analysis varying substrate, oxygen and electron-donor concentrations was performed, which, over the concentration range studied, gave a series of families of approximately parallel double-reciprocal plots. From secondary and tertiary plots, Michaelis constants of 0.160 mM, 0.086 mM and 0.121 mM were obtained for dimethylamine, NADPH and oxygen respectively. 4. Product-inhibition studies supported the postulated Hexa Uni Ping Pong (triple-transfer) reaction mechanism.
