Abstract：
:The acetylenic analogue of adenosine 9-(5',6'-dideoxy-beta-D-ribo-hex-5'-ynofuranosyl)adenine has been synthesized, and its behavior as an inhibitor of bovine S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase has been examined. Incubation of the enzyme with excess inhibitor caused a time-dependent, irreversible inactivation of the enzyme that was accompanied by the reduction of two equivalents of NAD+ to NADH and the loss of the two remaining equivalents of NAD+. With use of radiolabeled inhibitor, it was established that 4 equiv of the acetylenic analog bind irreversibly to the enzyme and that 4 equiv were required to inactivate the enzyme completely. The inactivated enzyme could not be reactivated by incubation with NAD+. Denaturation studies revealed that 2 equiv of the inhibitor are bound more tightly to the enzyme than the remainder, suggesting the formation of a covalent linkage between the oxidized inhibitor and the enzyme. The putative covalent linkage was found to be acid sensitive but stable to mild base. The linkage could not be stabilized by treatment of the enzyme-inhibitor complex with either borohydride or cyanoborohydride. A Kl of 173 nM was measured for the inhibitor, making it one of the more potent inhibitors that have been reported. The enzyme used in these studies was isolated by modification of an affinity chromatography method reported by Narayanan and Borchardt [(1988) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 965, 22-28]. The affinity chromatography unexpectedly led to the isolation of two forms of the enzyme. The major form contained 4.0 mol of nucleotide cofactor/mol of enzyme tetramer, while the minor form carried only 2.0 mol/tetramer.
