Interaction of monodispersed and micellar phospholipids with an Agkistrodon halys blomhoffii phospholipase A2, in which the alpha-amino group had been modified to an alpha-keto group.

Abstract：

:The pH dependence of the binding constant of Ca2+ to a phospholipase A2 of Agkistrodon halys blomhoffii, in which the alpha-amino group had been selectively modified to an alpha-keto group, was studied at 25 degrees C and ionic strength 0.1 by the tryptophyl fluorescence method. The dependence was compared with the results for the intact enzyme (Ikeda et al. (1981) J. Biochem. 90, 1125-1130). The pH-dependence curve could be well interpreted in terms of the participation of the two ionizable groups Asp 49 and His 48, with pK values of 4.70 and 6.69, respectively. These values were slightly different from the respective pK values for the intact enzyme, 5.15 and 6.45. Ca2+ binding to the intact enzyme involves the participation of an additional ionizable group with a pK value of 7.30, which was thus assigned as alpha-amino group. The pH dependence of the binding constant of monodispersed n-dodecylphosphorylcholine (n-C12PC) to the alpha-NH2-modified enzyme was studied at 25 degrees C and ionic strength 0.1 by the aromatic circular dichroism (CD) method. The pH-dependence curve for the modified apoenzyme was interpreted as reflecting the participation of a single ionizable group with a pK value of 4.7, which was assigned to Asp 49 (to which a Ca2+ ion can coordinate) since the curve for the Ca2+ complex lacked this transition: the binding constant was independent of pH. The pH-dependence curves for the intact apoenzyme and its Ca2+ complex involve the participation of an additional ionizable group with pK values of 7.30 and 6.30, respectively (Ikeda & Samejima (1981) J. Biochem. 90, 799-804), which was assigned as the alpha-amino group. The hydrolysis of monodispersed 1,2-dihexanoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphorylcholine (diC6PC), catalyzed by the intact and the alpha-NH2-modified enzymes was studied by the pH stat method at 25 degrees C, pH 8.2, and ionic strength 0.1 in the presence of 3 mM Ca2+. The Km value for the modified enzyme was found to be very similar to that for the intact enzyme: this was compatible with the results of the direct binding study on the monodispersed n-C12PC under the same conditions. However, the kcat value was about 43% of the value for the intact enzyme, suggesting that the alpha-keto group introduced by the chemical modification perturbed the network of hydrogen bonds in the active site.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)
