چکیده
Cofactors may be expected to expand the range of reactions amenable to antibody-assisted catalysis. The biological importance of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP) as enzymic cofactor in amino acid metabolism and its catalytic versatility make it an attractive candidate for the generation of cofactor-dependent abzymes. Here we report an efficient procedure to screen antibodies for PLP-dependent catalytic activity and detail the spectrum of catalytic activities found in monoclonal antibodies elicited against Nalpha-(5'-phosphopyridoxyl)-L-lysine. This hapten is a nonplanar analog of the planar, resonance-stabilized coenzyme-substrate adducts formed in the PLP-dependent reactions of amino acids. The hapten-binding antibodies were screened for binding of the planar Schiff base formed from PLP and D- or L-norleucine by competition enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The Schiff base (external aldimine) is an obligatory intermediate in all PLP-dependent reactions of amino acids. This simple, yet highly discriminating screening step eliminated most of the total 24 hapten-binding antibodies. Three positive clones bound the Schiff base with L-norleucine, two preferred that with the D-enantiomer. The positive clones were assayed for catalysis of Schiff base formation and of the alpha,beta-elimination reaction with the D- and L-enantiomers of beta-chloroalanine. Three antibodies were found to accelerate aldimine formation, and two of these catalyzed the PLP-dependent alpha,beta-elimination reaction. One of the alpha, beta-elimination-positive antibodies catalyzed the transamination reaction with hydrophobic D-amino acids and oxoacids (Gramatikova, S. I., and Christen, P. (1996) J. Biol. Chem. 271, 30583-30586). All catalytically active antibodies displayed continuous turnover. No PLP-dependent reactions other than aldimine formation, alpha, beta-elimination of beta-chloroalanine and transamination were detected. The successive screening steps plausibly simulate the functional selection pressures having been operative in the molecular evolution of primordial PLP-dependent protein catalysts to reaction- and substrate-specific enzymes.

Monoclonal antibodies exhibiting various specificities for B6 vitamer forms have been prepared. The antigen preparation employed was a partially purified mixture of human placental proteins that had been derivatized by reaction with pyridoxal 5'-phosphate and sodium borohydride. Spleen cells obtained from mice immunized with the phosphopyridoxyl protein preparation were fused with the mouse mye...
متن کاملReactivity of a functional carbonyl moiety in bovine aortic lysyl oxidase. Evidence against pyridoxal 5'-phosphate.
Previous studies have pointed towards a cofactor role for pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP) in lysyl oxidase, the enzyme that generates the peptidyl aldehyde precursor to the lysine-derived cross-linkages in elastin and collagen. The nature of a carbonyl moiety in purified bovine aortic lysyl oxidase was explored in the present study. A PLP dinitrophenylhydrazone could not be isolated from lysyl oxi...
متن کاملInactivation of brain myo-inositol monophosphate phosphatase by pyridoxal-5'-phosphate.
Myo-inositol monophosphate phosphatase (IMPP) is a key enzyme in the phosphoinositide cell-signaling system. This study found that incubating the IMPP from a porcine brain with pyridoxal-5'-phosphate (PLP) resulted in a time-dependent enzymatic inactivation. Spectral evidence showed that the inactivation proceeds via the formation of a Schiff's base with the amino groups of the enzyme. After th...

The nuclear fraction of rat hepatoma-derived HTC cells contained approximately 8% of the total cellular pyridoxal 5'-phosphate. HTC cells were able to metabolize [3H]pyridoxine to coenzymatically active pyridoxal 5'-phosphate and pyridoxamine 5'-phosphate. As HTC cells did not have any demonstrable pyridoxine-5'-phosphate oxidase activity, the conversion of pyridoxine to pyridoxal 5'-phosphate ...
