The active centre of rabbit muscle triose phosphate isomerase. The site that is labelled by glycidol phosphate.

چکیده
1. Glycidol (2,3-epoxypropanol) phosphate is a specific irreversible inhibitor of rabbit muscle triose phosphate isomerase (EC 5.3.1.1); the site of attachment has now been studied. 2. The labelled enzyme was digested with pepsin and a modified peptide isolated. The sequence of the peptide is: Ala-Tyr-Glu-Pro-Val-Trp. 3. It is the glutamic acid residue in this peptide that is labelled: the peptide is thus a gamma-glutamyl ester derived from glycerol phosphoric acid. The same site is labelled by a mixture of glycidol and inorganic phosphate. 4. Kinetic and stereochemical features of these reactions are discussed.

Inactivation of muscle triose phosphate isomerase by D- and L-glycidol phosphate.
Dand L-glycidol phosphate have been synthesized in order to investigate the stereospecificity of the inactivation of triose phosphate isomerase by glycidol-P. Both enantiomers inactivate the enzyme. Similar concentrations for half-maximal rates of inactivation are found, but maximum Vinact is IO-fold larger for D-glycidol-P than for L-glycidol-P. The same glutamate residue of the protein is est...
متن کاملStudies of triose phosphate isomerase by hydrogen exchange.
The (3)H-H exchange of chicken muscle and rabbit muscle triose phosphate isomerases was studied. Their behaviour was mostly very similar. ;Exchange-in' (acquisition of radioactivity when protein was incubated in (3)H(2)O) was measured at 37 degrees C and at pH7.5, and the rates of exchange of the native and liganded enzymes were compared. Inhibitors and substrates retarded exchange, substrates ...
متن کاملFolding and association of triose phosphate isomerase from rabbit muscle.
The enzymatic activity and quaternary structure of rabbit muscle triose phosphate isomerase remains unchanged in the concentration range from 2 micrograms/ml to 2 ng/ml. In this concentration range the enzyme can be reactivated after dissociation and denaturation in 6.5 M guanidine hydrochloride. Removal of the denaturant by dilution and separation of inactive wrong aggregates (5-20%) lead back...
متن کاملStructure of Plasmodium falciparum triose-phosphate isomerase-2-phosphoglycerate complex at 1.1-A resolution.
Triose-phosphate isomerase, a key enzyme of the glycolytic pathway, catalyzes the isomerization of dihydroxy acetone phosphate and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate. In this communication we report the crystal structure of Plasmodium falciparum triose-phosphate isomerase complexed to the inhibitor 2-phosphoglycerate at 1.1-A resolution. The crystallographic asymmetric unit contains a dimeric molecule....

The molecular architecture of the rabbit skeletal muscle aldolase (D-fructose-1,6-bisphosphate D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate-lyase, EC 4.1.2.13) tetramer has been determined to 2.7-A resolution. Solution of the three-dimensional structure of rabbit muscle aldolase utilized phase information from a single isomorphous Pt(CN)4(2-) derivative, which was combined with iterative-phase refinement based...
