Murine erythroid 5-aminolevulinate synthase: Adenosyl-binding site Lys221 modulates substrate binding and catalysis
5-Aminolevulinate synthase (ALAS) catalyzes the initial step of mammalian heme biosynthesis, the condensation between glycine and succinyl-CoA to produce CoA, CO2, and 5-aminolevulinate. The crystal structure of Rhodobacter capsulatus ALAS indicates that the adenosyl moiety of succinyl-CoA is positioned in a mainly hydrophobic pocket, where the ribose group forms a putative hydrogen bond with L...
متن کاملMode 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 کاملHypoxic up-regulation of erythroid 5-aminolevulinate synthase.
The erythroid-specific isoform of 5-aminolevulinate synthase (ALAS2) catalyzes the rate-limiting step in heme biosynthesis. The hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) transcriptionally up-regulates erythropoietin, transferrin, and transferrin receptor, leading to increased erythropoiesis and hematopoietic iron supply. To test the hypothesis that ALAS2 expression might be regulated by a similar mech...
متن کاملIdentification of substrate binding site of cyclin-dependent kinase 5.
Cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (CDK5), unlike other CDKs, is active only in neuronal cells where its neuron-specific activator p35 is present. However, it phosphorylates serines/threonines in S/TPXK/R-type motifs like other CDKs. The tail portion of neurofilament-H contains more than 50 KSP repeats, and CDK5 has been shown to phosphorylate S/T specifically only in KS/TPXK motifs, indicating highly s...
متن کاملPre-steady-state reaction of 5-aminolevulinate synthase. Evidence for a rate-determining product release.
5-Aminolevulinate synthase (ALAS) is the first enzyme of the heme biosynthetic pathway in non-plant eukaryotes and the alpha-subclass of purple bacteria. The pyridoxal 5'-phosphate cofactor at the active site undergoes changes in absorptive properties during substrate binding and catalysis that have allowed us to study the kinetics of these reactions spectroscopically. Rapid scanning stopped-fl...
