Conformational changes and subunit communication in tryptophan synthase: effect of substrates and substrate analogs.

Abstract：

:The transmission of regulatory signals between the alpha- and beta-subunits of the tryptophan synthase alpha 2 beta 2 complex from Salmonella typhimurium has been investigated by monitoring the luminescence properties of the enzyme in the presence and in the absence of the alpha-subunit ligand DL-alpha-glycerol 3-phosphate, the alpha- and beta-subunit substrate indole, and the beta-subunit substrate analog L-histidine. The beta-subunit contains as intrinsic probes Trp-177 and pyridoxal 5'-phosphate, whereas the alpha-subunit has been mutagenized by replacing Ala-129 with a Trp residue. In contrast to the inertness of L-histidine, DL-alpha-glycerol 3-phosphate was found (i) to alter the phosphorescence spectrum of Trp-129, (ii) to shift the fluorescence thermal quenching profile of both Trp-177 and coenzyme to higher temperature, (iii) to slow down the triplet decay kinetics of Trp-177 in fluid solution, and (iv) to affect the equilibrium between different conformations of the enzyme. These findings provide direct evidence that DL-alpha-glycerol 3-phosphate binding affects the structure of the alpha-subunit and, in the presence of coenzyme, induces a conformational change in the beta-subunit that leads to a considerably more rigid structure. As opposed to DL-alpha-glycerol 3-phosphate, the shortening of the phosphorescence lifetime upon indole binding suggests that this substrate increases structural fluctuations in the beta-subunit. Implications for the mechanism of the allosteric regulation between alpha- and beta-subunits are discussed.
