Illuminating the binding interactions of galactonoamidines during the inhibition of β-galactosidase (E. coli).

ABSTRACT: Several galactonoamidines were previously identified as very potent competitive inhibitors that exhibit stabilizing hydrophobic interactions of the aglycon in the active site of β-galactosidase (Aspergillus oryzae). To elucidate the contributions of the glycon to the overall inhibition ability of the compounds, three glyconoamidine derivatives with alteration in the glycon at C-2 and C-4 were synthesized and evaluated herein. All amidines are competitive inhibitors of β-galactosidase (Escherichia coli) and show significantly reduced inhibition ability when compared to the parent. The results highlight strong hydrogen-bonding interactions between the hydroxyl group at C-2 of the amidine glycon and the active site of the enzyme. Slightly weaker H-bonds are promoted through the hydroxyl group at C-4. The inhibition constants were determined to be picomolar for the parent galactonoamidine, and nanomolar for the designed derivatives rendering all glyconoamidines very potent inhibitors of glycosidases albeit the derivatized amidines show up to 700-fold lower inhibition activity than the parent.

Project description:1. Michaelis-Menten parameters for the hydrolysis of 4-nitrophenyl beta-D-galactopyranoside and 3,4-dinitrophenyl beta-D-galactopyranoside Escherichia coli (lacZ) beta-galactosidase were measured as a function of pH or pD (pL) in both 1H2O and 2H2O. 2. For hydrolysis of 4-nitrophenyl beta-D-galactopyranoside by Mg2(+)-free enzyme, V is pL-independent below pL 9, but the V/Km-pL profile is sigmoid, the pK values shifting from 7.6 +/- 0.1 in 1H2O to 8.2 +/- 0.1 in 2H2O, and solvent kinetic isotope effects are negligible, in accord with the proposal [Sinnott, Withers & Viratelle (1978) Biochem. J. 175, 539-546] that glycone-aglycone fission without acid catalysis governs both V and V/Km. 3. V for hydrolysis of 4-nitrophenyl beta-D-galactopyranoside by Mg2(+)-enzyme varies sigmoidally with pL, the pK value shifting from 9.19 +/- 0.09 to 9.70 +/- 0.07; V/Km shows both a low-pL fall, probably due to competition between Mg2+ and protons [Tenu, Viratelle, Garnier & Yon (1971) Eur. J. Biochem. 20, 363-370], and a high-pL fall, governed by a pK that shifts from 8.33 +/- 0.08 to 8.83 +/- 0.08. There is a negligible solvent kinetic isotope effect on V/Km, but one of 1.7 on V, which a linear proton inventory shows to arise from one transferred proton. 4. The variation of V and V/Km with pL is sigmoid for hydrolysis of 3,4-dinitrophenyl beta-D-galactopyranoside by Mg2(+)-enzyme, with pK values showing small shifts, from 8.78 +/- 0.09 to 8.65 +/- 0.08 and from 8.7 +/- 0.1 to 8.9 +/- 0.1 respectively. There is no solvent isotope effect on V or V/Km for 3,4-dinitrophenyl beta-D-galactopyranoside, despite hydrolysis of the galactosyl-enzyme intermediate governing V. 5. Identification of the 'conformation change' in the hydrolysis of aryl galactosides proposed by Sinnott & Souchard [(1973) Biochem. J. 133, 89-98] with the protolysis of the magnesium phenoxide arising from the action of enzyme-bound Mg2+ as an electrophilic catalyst rationalizes these data and also resolves the conflict between the proposals and the 18O kinetic-isotope-effect data reported by Rosenberg & Kirsch [(1981) Biochemistry 20, 3189-3196]. It should be noted that the actual Km values were determined to higher precision than can be estimated from the Figures in this paper.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Project description:1. Repression by glucose of beta-galactosidase synthesis is spontaneously reversible in all strains of Escherichia coli examined long before the glucose has all been consumed. The extent of recovery and the time necessary for reversal differ among various strains. Other inducible enzymes show similar effects. 2. This transient effect of glucose repression is observed in constitutive (i(-)) and permease-less (y(-)) cells as well as in the corresponding i(+) and y(+) strains. 3. Repression is exerted by several rapidly metabolizable substrates (galactose, ribose and ribonucleosides) but not by non-metabolized or poorly metabolized compounds (2-deoxyglucose, 2-deoxyribose, phenyl thio-beta-galactoside and 2-deoxyribonucleosides). 4. The transient repression with glucose is observed in inducible cells supplied with a powerful inducer of beta-galactosidase synthesis (e.g. isopropyl thio-beta-galactoside) but not with a weak inducer (lactose); in the latter instance glucose repression is permanent. Diauxic growth on glucose plus lactose can be abolished by including isopropyl thio-beta-galactoside in the medium. 5. In some strains phosphate starvation increases catabolite repression; in others it relieves it. Adenine starvation in an adenine-requiring mutant also relieves catabolite repression by glycerol but not that by glucose. Restoration of phosphate or adenine to cells starved of these nutrients causes a pronounced temporary repression. Alkaline-phosphatase synthesis is not affected by the availability of adenine. 6. During periods of transient repression of induced enzyme synthesis the differential rate of RNA synthesis, measured by labelled uracil incorporation in 2min. pulses, shows a temporary rise. 7. The differential rate of uracil incorporation into RNA falls during exponential growth of batch cultures of E. coli. This is equally true for uracil-requiring and non-requiring strains. The fall in the rate of incorporation has been shown to be due to a real fall in the rate of RNA synthesis. The significance of the changes in the rate of RNA synthesis is discussed. 8. A partial model of catabolite repression is presented with suggestions for determining the chemical identification of the catabolite co-repressor itself.
