Threonine synthetase mechanism:studies with isotopic oxygen.
In the preceding paper (1) we described the purification and some properties of threonine synthetase of Neurospora. We now wish to report studies of the mechanism of this reaction with O1%beled water. When 0-phosphohomoserine is incubated with 500-fold purified enzyme in H&l*, the threonine and phosphate formed are found to have acquired 1 and 0 atoms of solvent oxygen, respectively, indicating...
متن کاملMechanism of rhodanese action: isotopic tracer studies.
In a previous publication (2) a double displacement mechanism for the catalytic activity of rhodanese (thiosulfate cyanide sulfurtransferase) was proposed on the basis of polarographic evidence. In addition it was concluded from the polarographic data that crystahine beef liver rhodanese is an enzyme-substrate intermediate containing two activated substrate sulfur atoms per molecule. This commu...
متن کاملInteraction between L-threonine dehydrogenase and aminoacetone synthetase and mechanism of aminoacetone production.
A mixture of threonine dehydrogenase and aminoacetone synthetase will catalyze the conversion of L-threonine to glycine. The overall reaction likely involves the conversion of L-threonine, NAD+, and CoA to glycine, NADH, and acetyl-CoA. Physical separation of L-threonine dehydrogenase from aminoacetone synthetase results in the formation of aminoacetone and CO2 from their substrates. A physical...
متن کاملIsotope exchange studies on the Escherichia coli selenophosphate synthetase mechanism.
Selenophosphate synthetase, the Escherichia coli selD gene product, is a 37-kDa protein that catalyzes the synthesis of selenophosphate from ATP and selenide. In the absence of selenide, ATP is converted quantitatively to AMP and two orthophosphates in a very slow partial reaction. A monophosphorylated enzyme derivative containing the gamma-phosphoryl group of ATP has been implicated as an inte...
متن کاملStudies on the mechanism of action of glutathione synthetase.
It has been established that the synthesis of GSH’ from glutamylcysteine and glycine is accompanied by the splitting of ATP to ADP and Pi, but the detailed mechanism of this process has not been elucidated. It is reasonable to assume that the formation of the peptide bond which is catalyzed by glutathione synthetase occurs in several steps. Nevertheless, present evidence indicates that the reac...
