Mode of binding of pyridoxal phosphate to 5-aminolevulinate synthase.
5-Aminolevulinate synthase of Rhodopseudomonas spheroides interacts with its cofactor, pyridoxal phosphate, and shows an absorption maximum at 430 nm with a probable shoulder at 320--330 nm. The enzyme-PLP complex absorbing at 430 nm is the predominant species at pH 7.2 and can be reduced by NaBH4 at neutral pH with a spectral shift of the absorption maximum to 325 nm. These data suggests the f...
متن کاملBinding of Pyridoxal 5'-Phosphate
1. The a and ,B subforms of aspartate aminotransferase were purified from pig heart. 2. The a subform contained 2mol of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate. The apo-(a subform) could be fully reactived by combination with 2mol of cofactor. 3. The protein fluorescence of the apo(a subform) decreased non-linearly with increase in enzyme activity and concentration of bound cofactor. 4. It is concluded that the...
متن کاملTransfer of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate from albumin-pyridoxal 5'-phosphate complex to apo-aspartate aminotransferase.
Pyridoxal 5•L-phosphate (PLP) is known to combine with bovine serum albumin to form a(1:1) complex which scarcely dissociates, even when subjected to intensive dialysis. When this complex was incubated with apo-aspartate aminotransferase (apoGOT) for an appropriate time and the preincubated mixture then submitted to the usual GOT assay, the appearance of GOT activity was obviously confirmed, in...
متن کاملCystathionine β-Synthase Is Necessary for Axis Development in Vivo
The cystathionine ß-synthase (CBS) is a critical enzyme in the transsulfuration pathway and is responsible for the synthesis of cystathionine from serine and homocysteine. Cystathionine is a precursor to amino acid cysteine. CBS is also responsible for generation of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) from cysteine. Mutation in CBS enzyme causes homocysteine levels to rise, and gives rise to a condition cal...
متن کاملBiomedical aspects of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate availability.
The biologically active form of vitamin B6, pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP), is a cofactor in over 160 enzyme activities involved in a number of metabolic pathways, including neurotransmitter synthesis and degradation. In humans, PLP is recycled from food and from degraded PLP-dependent enzymes in a salvage pathway requiring the action of pyridoxal kinase, pyridoxine 5'-phosphate oxidase and phosp...
