Pre-steady-state kinetic analysis of riboflavin synthase using a pentacyclic reaction intermediate as substrate.
Riboflavin synthase catalyses a mechanistically complex dismutation affording riboflavin and 5-amino-6-ribitylamino-2,4(1H,3H )-pyrimidinedione from 6,7-dimethyl-8-ribityllumazine. A pentacyclic adduct (compound 2 ) of two substrate molecules was used as substrate for pre-steady-state kinetic analysis. Whereas the wild-type enzyme catalyses the decomposition of compound 2 into a mixture of ribo...
متن کاملStructures and reaction mechanisms of riboflavin synthases of eubacterial and archaeal origin.
The biosynthesis of one riboflavin molecule requires one molecule of GTP and two molecules of ribulose 5-phosphate as substrates. GTP is hydrolytically opened, converted into 5-amino-6-ribitylamino-2,4(1H,3H)-pyrimidinedione by a sequence of deamination, side chain reduction and dephosphorylation. Condensation with 3,4-dihydroxy-2-butanone 4-phosphate obtained from ribulose 5-phosphate leads to...
متن کاملCatalytic mechanism of Kdo8P synthase: transient kinetic studies and evaluation of a putative reaction intermediate.
The mechanistic pathway for the reaction catalyzed by Kdo8P synthase has been investigated, and the cyclic bisphosphate 2 has been examined as a putative reaction intermediate. Two parallel approaches were used: (1) chemical synthesis of 2 and evaluation as an alternate substrate for the enzyme and (2) transient kinetic studies using rapid chemical quench methodology to provide direct observati...
متن کاملFluorinated substrates result in variable leakage of a reaction intermediate during catalysis by dehydroquinate synthase.
Incubation of (3S)-3-fluoro-3-deoxy-D-arabino-heptulosonate 7-phosphate with dehydroquinate (DHQ) synthase from three phylogenetically distinct sources resulted in the production of (6S)-6-fluoroDHQ and its epimer 1-epi-(6S)-6-fluoroDHQ. The differences in the product ratios of the reactions catalysed by each enzyme imply that 1-epi-(6S)-6-fluoroDHQ formation occurs by an unusual partial leakag...
متن کاملNMR Crystallography of a Carbanionic Intermediate in Tryptophan Synthase: Chemical Structure, Tautomerization, and Reaction Specificity
Carbanionic intermediates play a central role in the catalytic transformations of amino acids performed by pyridoxal-5'-phosphate (PLP)-dependent enzymes. Here, we make use of NMR crystallography-the synergistic combination of solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance, X-ray crystallography, and computational chemistry-to interrogate a carbanionic/quinonoid intermediate analogue in the β-subunit a...
