The stability towards thermal and chemical (guanidine hydrochloride, GnHCl) denaturation of six inhibited subtilases (mesentericopeptidase, subtilisins BPN′, Carlsberg and DY, proteinase K and thermitase) has been investigated by kinetic and equilibrium studies. The unfolding processes were monitored by circular dichroic and fluorescence spectroscopy. Experiments in the absence and presence of extraneous calcium in the concentration range 2×10?3-10?1 M were performed. The presence of calcium in the weak calcium binding site changes the denaturation drastically. The heat- (or GnHCl-) induced unfolding curves obtained using CD spectroscopy show two independent transitions which seem not to have been resolved before. The presence of Ca2+ in the second (third in the case of thermitase) binding site increases the Tm, values by 11-21 °C and the δGD(H2O) values obtained from denaturation experiments in GnHCl by 6.7-7.2 kcal/mol when an extraneous Ca2+ concentration of 2 × 10?2 M was used. One interpretation is that the initial step of denaturation in the presence of added calcium is the formation of a partially unfolded intermediate form, retaining a highly ordered structure with 60-85% of the a-helix structure of the native enzyme. This intermediate then unfolds at a temperature considerably higher than that of the same proteinases in the absence of added Ca2+. The free energy of stabilization of the intermediates is increased by 1.8-2.8 times in comparison with that for the unfolding reactions of the subtilases with empty Ca2/Ca3 binding sites. A second interpretation is that the two steps in the unfolding curves correspond to enzyme without and with calcium in the weak binding site. Fluorescence experiments confirm the mechanism involving the formation of intermediate states. The results are discussed in relation to the X-ray models of the six subtilases. 相似文献

Circular dichroic spectroscopy has been used to study the effect of pH, guanidinium hydrochloride concentration and temperature on the conformation of the fungal subtilisin-like proteinase K and the bacterial DY. The ellipticity of the bands in the far ultraviolet region remains almost unchanged in the pH range 3.0-11.0 (PMS-proteinase K) and 5.0-10.0 (PMS-subtilisin DY). The same ranges of pH stability were determined from the pH dependence of the near ultraviolet dichroic spectra. Hence the changes in the tertiary and secondary structure occur in parallel. Proteinase K is considerably more stable at acidic and somewhat more stable at alkaline pH than subtilisin DY. At neutral pH proteinase K is more resistant to denaturation by guanidinium hydrochloride than is subtilisin DY. The midpoints of the denaturation curves were 6.2 M and 3.2 M guanidinium, respectively. The thermal unfolding of proteinase K occurred at a higher temperature than for subtilisin DY, the transition midpoints being 65° and 48°, respectively. Thus proteinase K is overall a much more robust molecule than subtilisin DY, showing greater resistance to all three forms of denaturation. The differences in the stability of the two proteinases can be partly explained by differences in their calcium binding sites. 相似文献

Comparative studies of the hydrolysis of succinyl-Ala2-Phe-methylcoumarylamide with mesentericopeptidase, a mesophilic extracellular serine proteinase from Bacillus mesentericus, and proteinases produced by organisms representing different levels of evolutionary development, were performed. Drastic differences in the proteolytic coefficient kcat/Km, were found. As regards their catalytic efficiency, the proteinases studied can be placed in the following order: mesentericopeptidase < subtilisin Novo ? subtilisin DY < proteinase K < subtilisin Carlsberg < thermitase < α-chymotrypsin. The size of the substrate-binding site of mesentericopeptidase for synthetic peptides was studied by using chloromethyl ketones with the general formula benzyloxycarbonyl-Ala-Phe-CH2Cl (n= 1, 2, 3). The presence of at least five binding subsites (S1… S5) on the S-side of the hydrolysed bond was suggested. Studies of the primary specificity of mesentericopeptidase with a series of dipeptide chloromethyl ketones having the general formula benzyloxycarbonyl-Ala-Aa-CH2Cl (Aa = Ala, Val, Leu, Phe) revealed the following order of reactivity toward these inhibitors: Aa = Leu ? Ala > Phe > Val. Kinetically, mesentericopeptidase is similar to subtilisin BPN′/Novo. 相似文献
