Enzyme-catalyzed hydrolysis of echothiophate, a P–S bonded organophosphorus (OP) model, was spectrofluorimetrically monitored, using Calbiochem Probe IV as the thiol reagent. OP hydrolases were: the G117H mutant of human butyrylcholinesterase capable of hydrolyzing OPs, and a multiple mutant of Brevundimonas diminuta phosphotriesterase, GG1, designed to hydrolyze a large spectrum of OPs at high rate, including V agents. Molecular modeling of interaction between Probe IV and OP hydrolases (G117H butyrylcholinesterase, GG1, wild types of Brevundimonas diminuta and Sulfolobus solfataricus phosphotriesterases, and human paraoxonase-1) was performed. The high sensitivity of the method allowed steady-state kinetic analysis of echothiophate hydrolysis by highly purified G117H butyrylcholinesterase concentration as low as 0.85 nM. Hydrolysis was michaelian with Km = 0.20 ± 0.03 mM and kcat = 5.4 ± 1.6 min−1. The GG1 phosphotriesterase hydrolyzed echothiophate with a high efficiency (Km = 2.6 ± 0.2 mM; kcat = 53400 min−1). With a kcat/Km = (2.6 ± 1.6) × 107 M−1min−1, GG1 fulfills the required condition of potential catalytic bioscavengers. quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) and molecular docking indicate that Probe IV does not interact significantly with the selected phosphotriesterases. Moreover, results on G117H mutant show that Probe IV does not inhibit butyrylcholinesterase. Therefore, Probe IV can be recommended for monitoring hydrolysis of P–S bonded OPs by thiol-free OP hydrolases.

The steady state kinetic parameters of plasmin and trypsin catalysed hydrolysis of Bz-L-Phe-Val-Arg-pNA, L-Phe-Val-Arg-pNA, Bz-D-Phe-Val-Arg-pNA, D-Phe-Val-Arg-pNA and D-Val-Leu-Lys-pNA in the pH-range 6-9 are presented. Ionization of catalytically essential enzymic groups accounts satisfactorily for the pH-dependencies of the kinetic parameters for plas-rain and trypsin reactions with Bz-L-Phe-Val-Arg-pNA, Bz-D-Phe-Val-Arg-pNA and D-Val-Leu-Lys-pNA. The protonation of the α-amino group of L-Phe-Val-Arg-pNA and D-Phe-Val-Arg-pNA (pK=7.0) show some additional effect. The values of the catalytic constants for plasmin and trypsin reactions with these p-nitroanilides are alike those normally found for specific ester substrates, indicating that the deacylation steps are rate determining.

The steady-state kinetics of the butyrylcholinesterase-catalysed hydrolysis of butyrylthiocholine and thiophenyl acetate were shown to deviate from Michaelis–Menten kinetics. The ‘best’ empirical rate law was selected by fitting different rate equations to the experimental data by non-linear regression methods. The results were analysed in view of two alternative interpretations: (1) the reaction is catalysed by a mixture of enzymes, or (2) the activity is due to a single enzyme displaying deviations from Michaelis–Menten kinetics. It was concluded that the second alternative applies, and this conclusion was further supported by experiments involving simultaneous hydrolysis of alternative thiol ester substrates (butyrylthiocholine/thiophenyl acetate) as well as alternative thiol ester and oxygen ester substrates (butyrylthiocholine/phenyl acetate; thiophenyl acetate/butyrylcholine; acetylthiocholine/phenyl acetate). On the basis of the conclusion that a single enzyme is responsible for the activity, a molecular model is proposed. This model involves an acylated enzyme, and implies binding to the enzyme of one acyl group and one ester molecule, but not two ester molecules at the same time. Thus butyrylcholinesterase, which is structurally a tetramer, behaves functionally as a co-operative dimer, an interpretation in accordance with available data from active-site titrations.

H(+)-ATP synthase (F(1)F(o) ATPase) catalyzes the synthesis and/or hydrolysis of ATP, and the reactions are strongly affected by all the substrates (products) in a way clearly distinct from that expected of a simple reversibly operating enzyme. Recent studies have revealed the structure of F(1), which is ideally suited for the alternating binding change mechanism, with a rotating gamma-subunit as the energy-driven coupling device. According to this mechanism ATP, ADP, inorganic phosphate (P(i)) and Mg(2+) participate in the forward and reverse overall reactions exclusively as the substrates and products. However, both F(1) and F(1)F(o) demonstrate non-trivial steady-state and pre-steady-state kinetics as a function of variable substrate (product) concentrations. Several effectors cause unidirectional inhibition or activation of the enzyme. When considered separately, the unidirectional effects of ADP, P(i), Mg(2+) and energy supply on ATP synthesis or hydrolysis may possibly be explained by very complex kinetic schemes; taken together, the results suggest that different conformational states of the enzyme operate in the ATP hydrolase and ATP synthase reactions. A possible mechanism for an energy-dependent switch between the two states of F(1)F(o) ATPase is proposed.

Cellobiase has been isolated from the crude cellulase mixture of enzymes of Trichoderma viride using column chromatographic and ion-exchange methods. The steady-state kinetics of the hydrolysis of cellobiose have been investigated as a function of cellobiose and glucose concentrations, pH of the solution, temperature, and dielectric constant, using isopropanol–buffer mixtures. The results show that (i) there is a marked activation of the reaction by initial glucose concentrations of 4 × 10−3 M to 9 × 10−2 M and strong inhibition of the reaction at higher initial concentrations, (ii) the log rate – pH curve has a maximum at pH 5.2 and enzyme pK values of 3.5 and 6.8, (iii) the energy of activation at pH 5.1 is 10.2 kcal mol−1 over the temperature range 5–56 °C, and (iv) the rate decreases from 0 to 20% (v/v) isopropanol.The hydrolysis by cellobiase (EC 3.2.1.21) of p-nitrophenyl-β-D-glucoside was examined by pre-steady-state methods in which [Formula: see text], and by steady-state methods as a function of pH and temperature. The results show (i) a value for k2 of 21 s−1 at pH 7.0 (where k2 is the rate constant for the second step in the assumed two-intermediate mechanism [Formula: see text]) (ii) a log rate–pH curve, significantly different from that for hydrolysis of cellobiose, in which the rate increases with decreasing pH below pH 4.5, is constant in the region pH 4.5–6, and decreases above pH 6 (exhibiting an enzyme pK value of 7.3), and (iii) an activation energy of 12.5 kcal mol−1 at pH 5.7 over the temperature range 10–60 °C.
