A conserved glutamate residue exhibits multifunctional catalytic roles in D-fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolases.
The aldolase catalytic cycle consists of a number of proton transfers that interconvert covalent enzyme intermediates. Glu-187 is a conserved amino acid that is located in the mammalian fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolase active site. Its central location, within hydrogen bonding distance of three other conserved active site residues: Lys-146, Glu-189, and Schiff base-forming Lys-229, makes it a...
متن کاملThe fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolases: same reaction, different enzymes.
Two forms of the enzyme fructoseI ,6-bisphosphate aldolase (EC 4. I .2.13) are known, designated class I and class 11. The enzymes o f class I function by imine formation between the substrate and a catalytically essential lysine residue in the active site, which acts to stabilize the intermediate carbanion (for review, see [ I , 21). The enzymes of class I1 utilize a divalent metal ion to act ...
متن کاملA conserved catalytic residue in the ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme family.
Ubiquitin (Ub) regulates diverse functions in eukaryotes through its attachment to other proteins. The defining step in this protein modification pathway is the attack of a substrate lysine residue on Ub bound through its C-terminus to the active site cysteine residue of a Ub-conjugating enzyme (E2) or certain Ub ligases (E3s). So far, these E2 and E3 cysteine residues are the only enzyme group...
متن کاملAffinity labeling of a previously undetected essential lysyl residue in class I fructose bisphosphate aldolase.
The affinity label N-bromoacetylethanolamine phosphate (BrAcNHEtOP) has been used previously at pH 6.5 to identify His-359 of rabbit muscle aldolase as an active site residue. We now find that the specificity of the reagent is pH-dependent. At pH 8.5, alkylation with 14C-labeled BrAcNHEtOP abolishes both fructose-1,6-P2 cleavage activity and transaldolase activity. The stoichiometry of incorpor...
متن کاملAction of cathepsin D on fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolase.
Cathepsin D inactivated aldolase at pH values between 4.2 and 5.2; the chloride, sulphate or iodide, but not citrate or acetate, salts of sodium or potassium accelerated the rate of inactivation. Cathepsin D cleaved numerous peptide bonds in the C-terminus of aldolase, but the major site of cleavage in this region was Leu354-Phe355. The most prominent peptide products of hydrolysis were Phe-Ile...
