Active Site Cysteine Residue

Papain that had been irreversibly inhibited with 1,3-dibromo[2−14C]acetone was reduced with sodium borohydride and carboxymethylated with iodoacetic acid. After digestion with trypsin and α-chymotrypsin the radioactive peptides were purified chromatographically. Their amino acid composition indicated that cysteine-25 and histidine-106 were cross-linked. Since cysteine-25 is known to be the active-site cysteine residue, histidine-106 must be the active-site histidine residue.

Succinyl Coa Synthetase

Succinyl-CoA synthetase catalyzes the only step in the citric acid cycle that provides substrate-level phosphorylation. Although the binding sites for the substrates CoA, phosphate, and the nucleotides ADP and ATP or GDP and GTP have been identified, the binding site for succinate has not. To determine this binding site, pig GTP-specific succinyl-CoA synthetase was crystallized in the presence of succinate, magnesium ions and CoA, and the structure of the complex was determined by X-ray crystallography to 2.2 Å resolution. Succinate binds in the carboxy-terminal domain of the β-subunit. The succinate-binding site is near both the active-site histidine residue that is phosphorylated in the reaction and the free thiol of CoA. The carboxy-terminal domain rearranges when succinate binds, burying this active site. However, succinate is not in position for transfer of the phosphoryl group from phosphohistidine. Here, it is proposed that when the active-site histidine residue has been phosphorylated by GTP, the phosphohistidine displaces phosphate and triggers the movement of the carboxylate of succinate into position to be phosphorylated. The structure shows why succinyl-CoA synthetase is specific for succinate and does not react appreciably with citrate nor with the other C4-dicarboxylic acids of the citric acid cycle, fumarate and oxaloacetate, but shows some activity with L-malate.

The kinetics of inactivation of prolyl endopeptidase by acetyl-Ala-Ala-Pro-CH2Cl were studied by progress-curve methods in the presence of substrate. The kinetic mechanism was found to involve the formation of an initial complex between the enzyme and the chloromethane followed by an inactivation step. The substrate was shown to compete for the formation of the initial complex, indicating that binding at the active site was a prerequisite for inactivation. After reaction of the enzyme with [3H]acetyl-Ala-Ala-Pro-CH2Cl, it was possible to isolate five labelled peptides. Four of these peptides contained a cysteine residue as the site of modification, whereas the fifth peptide contained no cysteine and a histidine residue was identified as the site of modification. This residue (His-680) probably represents the active-site histidine of prolyl endopeptidase.

1. The pH-dependencies of the binding of NADH and reduced nicotinamide–benzimidazole dinucleotide to pig heart cytoplasmic malate dehydrogenase and lactate dehydrogenase are reported. 2. Two ionizing groups were observed in the binding of both reduced coenzymes to lactate dehydrogenase. One group, with pKa in the range 6.3–6.7, is the active-site histidine residue and its deprotonation weakens binding of reduced coenzyme 3-fold. Binding of both coenzymes is decreased to zero when a second group, of pKa 8.9, deprotonates. This group is not cysteine-165.3. Only one ionization is required to characterize the binding of the two reduced coenzymes to malate dehydrogenase. The group involved appears to be the active-site histidine residue, since its ethoxycarbonylation inhibits the enzyme and abolishes binding of reduced coenzyme. Binding of either reduced coenzyme increases the pKa of the group from 6.4 to 7.4, and deprotonation of the group is accompanied by a 10-fold weakening of coenzyme binding. 4. Two reactive histidine residues were detected per malate dehydrogenase dimer. 5. A mechanism which emphasizes the homology between the two enzymes is presented.
