Kinetic analysis of cooperativity of phosphorylated L-type pyruvate kinase
Kinetics of L-type pyruvate kinase (EC 2.7.1.40) catalysed reaction between phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) and ADP was analysed under steady-state conditions and the interaction of both substrates with the enzyme was characterized proceeding from bi-substrate kinetic mechanism of this process. Cooperative regulation of the rate of this process by one of the substrates, PEP, was taken into considerat...
متن کاملGlobal conformational changes in allosteric proteins. A study of Escherichia coli cAMP receptor protein and muscle pyruvate kinase.
One of the basic features in allosteric regulation involves long range transduction of information. Based on crystallographic data on protein systems that are regulated by allosteric mechanisms, a global conformational change has always been observed. It is, therefore, important and useful to correlate the cooperativity of global structural change with the mode of binding of the regulatory liga...
متن کاملYeast Pyruvate Kinase
The kinetic properties of purified yeast pyruvate kinase were investigated. The enzyme showed cooperative kinetics toward the essential activating monovalent cations K+ and NH4+, Mg2+, and phosphoenolpyruvate. Fructose 1,6diphosphate, which yielded homotropic cooperative kinetics and did not affect maximal velocity, transformed the sigmoidal kinetics of Kf and NH4+, Mgz+, and phosphoenolpyruvat...
متن کاملProbing Conformational Feature of a Recombinant Pyruvate Kinase by Limited Proteolysis
Pyruvate kinase is a key enzyme in glycolytic pathway that catalyzes the transphosphorylation between phosphoenolpyruvate and ADP to yield ATP and Pyruvate. Geobacillus stearothermophillus has a stable pyruvate kinase with determined crystal structure that composed of four separate domains. Given that limited proteolysis experiments can be successfully used to probe conformational features of p...
متن کاملAlternating sites reactivity is a common feature of thiamin diphosphate-dependent enzymes as evidenced by isothermal titration calorimetry studies of substrate binding.
Thiamin diphosphate (ThDP)-dependent enzymes play vital roles in cellular metabolism in all kingdoms of life. In previous kinetic and structural studies, a communication between the active centers in terms of a negative cooperativity had been suggested for some but not all ThDP enzymes, which typically operate as functional dimers. To further underline this hypothesis and to test its universali...
