Purification and steady-state kinetics of adenosine 5'-pyrophosphate sulphurylase from baker's yeast.

ABSTRACT: ADP sulphurylase (EC 2.7.7.5) was purified by chromatography on Sephadex G-200 and DEAE-cellulose. The enzyme was assayed by measuring the incorporation of [32P]Pi into ADP in the presence of the substrate for the reverse reaction, adenosine 5'-sulphatophosphate. In the concentration ranges investigated, by using initial-velocity, product-inhibition and isotope-exchange studies, the data were consistent with a Ping Pong reaction mechanism, with Km for adenosine 5'-sulphatophosphate of 1.20 +/- 0.08 mM and a Km for Pi of 4.95 +/- 0.15 mM. Competitive substrate inhibition by Pi (Ki = 11.7 +/- 0.3 mM) was found. ADP sulphurylase catalyses a sulphate-independent Pi-ADP exchange reaction, the kinetics of which are consistent with the kinetics of the overall reaction, inconsistent with the assay of Burnell & Anderson [(1973) Biochem. J. 133, 417-428], which is based on a sulphate-dependent Pi-ADP exchange reaction.

Adenosine 5'-pyrophosphate sulphurylase in baker's yeast.

Project description:ADP sulphurylase from baker's yeast was purified and its properties were studied. The enzyme is very heat-labile and its activity shows linear kinetics over narrow ranges of time and protein concentration. It is not activated by metals and is inhibited by thiol-reactive compounds. The enzyme, which replaces inorganic sulphate in adenosine 5'-sulphatophosphate with P(i) to yield ADP, also catalyses an exchange of P(i) into ADP. Kinetic studies show that the enzyme has a high affinity for adenosine 5'-sulphatophosphate, although concentrations in excess of 1.0mm are inhibitory. However, the kinetics for P(i) are more complex and the enzyme is not inhibited by P(i) up to 20.0mm.

Kinetic mechanism from steady-state kinetics of the reaction catalysed by baker's-yeast glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase in solution and covalently attached to sepharose.

Project description:1. The reaction catalysed by glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (D-glucose 6-phosphate-NADP+ oxidoreductase, EC 1.1.1.49) from baker's yeast was studied in 42mM-glycylglycine buffer, pH7.4 at 25 degrees C, by initial-velocity studies and by the use of NADPH as a product inhibitor. 2. The reactions catalysed by both the soluble enzyme and a stable enzyme covalently attached to CNBr-activated Sepharose 4B probably follow an ordered reaction mechanism with NADP+ and NADPH as the leading reactants. 3. The kinetic constants obtained for the soluble enzyme lere: KNADP+m, 19 muM; KNADP+s, 23 muM; KNADPHs, 15 muM. Similar values were obtained for the immobilized enzyme. 4. The assay of the immobilized enzyme was done by using a micro packed-bed recirculation reactor, and the advantages of this technique are discussed.

Kinetic mechanism of mitochondrial adenosine triphosphatase. ADP-specific inhibition as revealed by the steady-state kinetics.

Project description:1. A substantial increase of the initial rate of ATP hydrolysis was observed after preincubation of bovine heart submitochondrial particles with phosphoenolpyruvate and pyruvate kinase. 2. The activation was accompanied by an increase of Vmax, without change of Km for ATP. 3. The activated particles catalysed the biphasic hydrolysis of ATP in the presence of an ATP-regenerating system; the initial rapid phase was followed by a second, slower, phase in a time-dependent fashion. 4. The higher the ATP concentration used as a substrate, the higher is the rate of transition between these two phases. 5. The particles catalysed the hydrolysis of ITP with a lag phase; after preincubation with phosphoenolpyruvate and pyruvate kinase, ITP was hydrolysed at a constant rate. 6. Qualitatively the same phenomena were observed when soluble mitochondrial ATPase (F1-ATPase) prepared by the conventional method in the presence of ATP was used as nucleotide triphosphatase. 7. A kinetic scheme is proposed, in which the intermediate active enzyme-product complex (E.ADP) formed during ATP hydrolysis is in slow equilibrium with the inactive E*.ADP complex forming as a result of dislocation of ADP from the active site of ATPase to the other site, which is not in rapid equilibrium with the surrounding medium.

DNA polymerase fidelity: comparing direct competition of right and wrong dNTP substrates with steady state and pre-steady state kinetics.

Project description:DNA polymerase fidelity is defined as the ratio of right (R) to wrong (W) nucleotide incorporations when dRTP and dWTP substrates compete at equal concentrations for primer extension at the same site in the polymerase-primer-template DNA complex. Typically, R incorporation is favored over W by 10(3)-10(5)-fold, even in the absence of 3'-exonuclease proofreading. Straightforward in principle, a direct competition fidelity measurement is difficult to perform in practice because detection of a small amount of W is masked by a large amount of R. As an alternative, enzyme kinetics measurements to evaluate k(cat)/K(m) for R and W in separate reactions are widely used to measure polymerase fidelity indirectly, based on a steady state derivation by Fersht. A systematic comparison between direct competition and kinetics has not been made until now. By separating R and W products using electrophoresis, we have successfully taken accurate fidelity measurements for directly competing R and W dNTP substrates for 9 of the 12 natural base mispairs. We compare our direct competition results with steady state and pre-steady state kinetic measurements of fidelity at the same template site, using the proofreading-deficient mutant of Klenow fragment (KF(-)) DNA polymerase. All the data are in quantitative agreement.

Pre-steady-state kinetics for hydrolysis of insoluble cellulose by cellobiohydrolase Cel7A.

Project description:The transient kinetic behavior of enzyme reactions prior to the establishment of steady state is a major source of mechanistic information, yet this approach has not been utilized for cellulases acting on their natural substrate, insoluble cellulose. Here, we elucidate the pre-steady-state regime for the exo-acting cellulase Cel7A using amperometric biosensors and an explicit model for processive hydrolysis of cellulose. This analysis allows the identification of a pseudo-steady-state period and quantification of a processivity number as well as rate constants for the formation of a threaded enzyme complex, processive hydrolysis, and dissociation, respectively. These kinetic parameters elucidate limiting factors in the cellulolytic process. We concluded, for example, that Cel7A cleaves about four glycosidic bonds/s during processive hydrolysis. However, the results suggest that stalling the processive movement and low off-rates result in a specific activity at pseudo-steady state that is 10-25-fold lower. It follows that the dissociation of the enzyme-substrate complex (half-time of ~30 s) is rate-limiting for the investigated system. We suggest that this approach can be useful in attempts to unveil fundamental reasons for the distinctive variability in hydrolytic activity found in different cellulase-substrate systems.

Purification, properties and substrate specificity of adenosine triphosphate sulphurylase from spinach leaf tissue.

Project description:1. ATP sulphurylase was purified up to 1000-fold from spinach leaf tissue. Activity was measured by sulphate-dependent [(32)P]PP(i)-ATP exchange. The enzyme was separated from Mg(2+)-requiring alkaline pyrophosphatase (which interferes with the PP(i)-ATP-exchange assay) and from other PP(i)-ATP-exchange activities. No ADP sulphurylase activity was detected. 2. Sulphate was the only form of inorganic sulphur that catalysed PP(i)-ATP exchange; K(m) (sulphate) was 3.1mm, K(m) (ATP) was 0.35mm and the pH optimum was 7.5-9.0. The enzyme was insensitive to thiol-group reagents and required either Mg(2+) or Co(2+) for activity. 3. The enzyme catalysed [(32)P]PP(i)-dATP exchange; K(m) (dATP) was 0.84mm and V (dATP) was 30% of V (ATP). Competition between ATP and dATP was demonstrated. 4. Selenate catalysed [(32)P]PP(i)-ATP exchange and competed with sulphate; K(m) (selenate) was 1.0mm and V (selenate) was 30% of V (sulphate). No AMP was formed with selenate as substrate. Molybdate did not catalyse PP(i)-ATP exchange, but AMP was formed. 5. Synthesis of adenosine 5'-[(35)S]sulphatophosphate was demonstrated by coupling purified ATP sulphurylase and Mg(2+)-dependent alkaline pyrophosphatase (also prepared from spinach) with [(35)S]sulphate and ATP as substrates; adenosine 5'-sulphatophosphate was not synthesized in the absence of pyrophosphatase. Some parameters of the coupled system are reported.

Differential equation methods for simulation of GFP kinetics in non-steady state experiments.

Project description:Genetically encoded fluorescent proteins, combined with fluorescence microscopy, are widely used in cell biology to collect kinetic data on intracellular trafficking. Methods for extraction of quantitative information from these data are based on the mathematics of diffusion and tracer kinetics. Current methods, although useful and powerful, depend on the assumption that the cellular system being studied is in a steady state, that is, the assumption that all the molecular concentrations and fluxes are constant for the duration of the experiment. Here, we derive new tracer kinetic analytical methods for non-steady state biological systems by constructing mechanistic nonlinear differential equation models of the underlying cell biological processes and linking them to a separate set of differential equations governing the kinetics of the fluorescent tracer. Linking the two sets of equations is based on a new application of the fundamental tracer principle of indistinguishability and, unlike current methods, supports correct dependence of tracer kinetics on cellular dynamics. This approach thus provides a general mathematical framework for applications of GFP fluorescence microscopy (including photobleaching [FRAP, FLIP] and photoactivation to frequently encountered experimental protocols involving physiological or pharmacological perturbations (e.g., growth factors, neurotransmitters, acute knockouts, inhibitors, hormones, cytokines, and metabolites) that initiate mechanistically informative intracellular transients. When a new steady state is achieved, these methods automatically reduce to classical steady state tracer kinetic analysis.

Transcriptional regulatory cascades in development: initial rates, not steady state, determine network kinetics.

Project description:A model was built to examine the kinetics of regulatory cascades such as occur in developmental gene networks. The model relates occupancy of cis-regulatory target sites to transcriptional initiation rate, and thence to RNA and protein output. The model was used to simulate regulatory cascades in which genes encoding transcription factors are successively activated. Using realistic parameter ranges based on extensive earlier measurements in sea urchin embryos, we find that transitions of regulatory states occur sharply in these simulations, with respect to time or changing transcription factor concentrations. As is often observed in developing systems, the simulated regulatory cascades display a succession of gene activations separated by delays of some hours. The most important causes of this behavior are cooperativity in the assembly of cis-regulatory complexes and the high specificity of transcription factors for their target sites. Successive transitions in state occur long in advance of the approach to steady-state levels of the molecules that drive the process. The kinetics of such developmental systems thus depend mainly on the initial output rates of genes activated in response to the advent of new transcription factors.

Mineralization induced by phosphorylated dry baker's yeast.

Project description:We found the mineralization of Cu during long-term Cu2+ adsorption onto dry baker's yeast cells phosphorylated using sodium cyclo-triphosphate. Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy confirmed that the elemental composition of minerals were copper, phosphorus, and oxygen. Synchrotron-based X-ray absorption fine structure showed that the local structure around Cu atoms deposited on the mineral was almost identical to that of commercial copper (II) phosphate Cu3(PO4)2∙3H2O. However, the crystallinity was low, and the structure was slightly distorted. Time profile analysis using FESEM revealed that copper phosphate mineralization was first apparent on Day 3 of adsorption, whereas mineral formation plateaued at around Day 7. It seems that mineralization occurs by the local saturation of phosphate and Cu2+ on the yeast cells. Mineralization of the rare earth ion Dy3+ was also demonstrated during long-term adsorption. Mineralization on phosphorylated yeast cells appears to follow a common path for various types of metal ions and provides a promising technique for metal recovery via irreversible adsorption.
