Substrate Specificity of d Ribozyme Cleavage
The specificity of d ribozyme cleavage was investigated using a trans-acting antigenomic d ribozyme. Under single turnover conditions, the wild type ribozyme cleaved the 11-mer ribonucleotide substrate with a rate constant of 0.34 min, an apparent Km of 17.9 nM and an apparent second-order rate constant of 1.89 3 10 min M. The substrate specificity of the d ribozyme was thoroughly investigated ...
متن کاملVariation in relative substrate specificity of bifunctional β-D-xylosidase/α-L-arabinofuranosidase by single-site mutations: Roles of substrate distortion and recognition
To probe differential control of substrate specificities for 4-nitrophenyl-α-L-arabinofuranoside (4NPA) and 4-nitrophenyl-β-D-xylopyranoside (4NPX), residues of the glycone binding pocket of GH43 β-D-xylosidase/α-L-arabinofuranosidase from Selenomonas ruminantium were individually mutated to alanine. Although their individual substrate specificities (kcat/Km) 4NPX and (kcat/Km) 4NPA are lowered...
متن کاملPhoto-affinity Labeling of B-d-xylosidase
As part of a comparative study of the structure and function of a group of glycosidases, we are particularly interested in the properties of a P-Dxylosidase (/3-D-xyloside xylohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.37) induced in Bacillus pumilus [l] . In an attempt to obtain further information on the catalytic site of this enzyme, several potential affinity-labels have been prepared [2-41 and tested on this enz...
متن کاملThe substrate specificity of brain microsomal phospholipase D.
Neurotransmitters activate a phospholipase D that is though to specifically hydrolyse phosphatidylcholine. This enzyme has a unique property known as transphosphatidylation: in the presence of an appropriate nucleophilic receptor such as an alcohol, phospholipase D will catalyse the production of phosphatidyl-alcohol. We have studied phospholipase D using an in vitro assay that uses [3H]butanol...
متن کاملEngineering the substrate specificity of D-amino-acid oxidase.
The high resolution crystal structure of D-amino-acid oxidase (DAAO) from the yeast Rhodotorula gracilis provided us with the tool to engineer the substrate specificity of this flavo-oxidase. DAAO catalyzes the oxidative deamination of D-amino acids, with the exception of D-aspartate and D-glutamate (which are oxidized by D-aspartate oxidase, DASPO). Following sequence homology, molecular model...
