Binding
Proteins
classified as catalysts, transporters, regulators, signallers, structural, movement
models
lock and key
Emil Fischer, 1894 (no info on proteins), in late 1940s Linus Pauling proposed enzymes facilitate catalysis by binding more tightly to transition state than to substrate and thus lower activation energy
-
-
-
Induced fit
Dan Koshland, 1957 (more info on proteins but not atomically)
-
-
ligand warping
-
changes in conformation of calmodulin (a calcium sensor) transmits calcium signal to target proteins. The binding of Ca2+ to calmodulin causes conformational change allowing the complex to bind to conserved sequences in target proteins so controlling activity
binding of ADP and 1,3-bisphoglycerate to phosphoglycerate kinase causes binding site to compress vertically ("hinge bending")
-
-
Affinity is the strength on binding, usually expressed as Kd (which is the inverse of Keq) adn the stronger the interaction the lower the Kd value
Antibodies
-
-
IN immunoglobulins, there are 4 globular domains in each heavy chains and 2 in each light; in each branching a light chain is linked to heavy by disulphide bond; at end of each arm there are 6 variable loops called CDRs which form the antigen binding sites
Regulation
pH
-
-
Haemoglobin
-
the charge-charge interactions, or salt bridge, in deoxyhaemoglobin inhibits oxygen binding
at high pH His side chain is not protonated so the salt bridge is not present and oxygen binding is allowed because t-form is not favoured
at low pH His side chain becomes protonated and the salt bridge forms which favours the t-form and so oxygen binding
-
Temperature
proteins can be denatured at high temperatures, so that after the optimum the activity sharply falls
-
-
Ligands
Activators
example- 2,3, Bisphosphoglycerate which binds to middle of 4 haemoglobin subunit and makes oxygen binding more cooperative
Inhibitors
Reversible
-
They usually resemble the substrate, coenzyme or another metabolic intermediate
-
-
-
-
Irreversible
enzymes undergo a chemical reaction with the enzyme forming a covalent bond between inhibitor and enzyme
generally, once inactivated it cannot regain activity
Consecutive reactions
coupling unfavourable with favourable can be done directly (same place same time) or indirectly (energy from one generates a potential energy gradient)
-
metabolic pathways have multiple steps with different rate constants, activation energies and non-competitive inhibitors
CTP
First step is condensation of aspartate and carbamoyl phosphate to give N-carboylasparate catalysed by aspartate transcarbamoylase and is inhibited by CTP (the end product)
CTP binding stabilises the T-form of the enzyme so decreases affinity for aspartate and carbamoyl phosphate
-
Degradation
Degradation removes potentially toxic, improperly folded, or damaged proteins, but also controls rates of synthesis allowing proteostasis mechanism
most proteins are degraded slowly, 1-2% per hour in mammalian cells
lysosomes
-
this degradation is particularly targeted to aged or defectives organelles in autophagy, but account for 90% of degradation in mammalian cells
Proteasome
-
the proteasome binds to the targeted protein via the Ub receptors and unfolds the protein using hexameric ATPases and deubiquitinases (these removes ubiquitins) as it is transferred into an internal chamber
protein cutting subunits in the chamber degrade the target proteins into small peptides (2-24 residues long) which are then released into cytosol
They consist of roughly 60 subunits, have a cylindirical catalytic core called 20S proteasome and bound to both ends or 1 or 2 19S RP complexes (when combine either 26S or 30S
the core comprises 2 inner rings of 7 Beta subunits, each ring contains 7 alpha subunits to limit substrate access via core gate. The 3 active sites in each B subunit ring can cleave peptide bonds at hydrophobic, acidic or basic residues
the core gate is narrow enough to only let unfolded proteins in, its opening is controlled by ATPase in 19S RP (they aloso control unfolding and translocating them into inner chamber)
(inhibition of proteosomes can reveal their function, see textbook)
Ubiquitin
proteins are marked by covalently attaching ubiquitin (linear chain of 76 residue copies polypeptide)
-
-
ubiquitin protein ligase forms a covalent, isopeptide bond between carboxyl group of Gly-76 of ubiquitin on enzyme and amino group of lys residue on target protein; this occurs multiple times as it adds ubiquitin to lys-48 of previous ubiquitin
Modification
Post tranlational modifications include phosphorylation, methylation, nitrosylation, acetylation and lipidation
writers are the enzymes that covalently modify target proteins and readers are those proteins that recognise the proteins
phosphorylation
-
phosphorylation can influence protein location (e.g. attracting to plasma membrane), its structure, its ability to bind to other molecules (e.g. DNA) or its stability
Protein Kinase A
like all other protein kinases, it has a kinase domain (around 250 residus long) that catalyses teh phosphate transfer reaction
-
Its active site is located around the cleft between the N- and C-lobes, and it contains substrate binding sites and properly orientated ATP on the ledge of the adjacent cleft
When binds, it positions hydroxyl group of phospho-accepting Ser, Thr, or Tyr side chain
binding of substrate place y-phosphate of ATP in close proximity to hydroxyl group and induces a conformational change (induced fit) in N-lobe forming closed conformation
3 negatively charged, acidic side chains in binding site directly bind to Arg side chains in substrate motif and a hydrophobic pocket in PKA recognises hydrophobic side chain in motif adjacent to acceptor Ser or Thr, so only proteins with this motif is phosphorylated
There are also the G- and A-loop, bith involved in binding of ATP-2Mg2+ or the protein enhances binding of other substrate (cooperative and induced fit) and once bound catalytic site transfers y-phosphate to hydroxyl of acceptor at rates 10^10 times faster
Activation
G loop (GXGXXGXV) residues interact with B and y phosphates of ATP and one of the A-loop residues triggers activation
The residues in both loops must be properly orientated in the protein if substrates are to bind adn transfer phosphate to Thr-197 in A loop
-
Ubiquitination
-
All 7 Lys residues (6, 11, 27, 33, 48 and 63), adn N terminal can participate in binding of C-terminal Gly-76 to form the chain
multiple form of ubiquitination result in wide variety of recognition surfaces that participate in binding
Lys-48 polyubiquitination leads to proteasomal degradtion, lys-63 is used in cellular identification and signalling, lys-11 regulates cell division, lys-33 suppresses T-lymphocyte receptors
Cleavage
Many hormones are synthesised as long precursors and prior to secretion they must be hydrolysed to fold properly
sometimes a single long prohormone is cleaved into several distinct active hormones and sometimes are synthesised as zygomenns (inactive precursor enzymes
cleavage of peptide bond near N terminus of trypsinogen (zygomen of trypsin) by enzyme generates new N terminal residue (Ile-16) whose amino group forms ionic bonf with carboxylic acid side chain of internal aspartic acid
this binding changes substrate binding site which activates enzymes, the active trypsin can then activate trypsinogen, chymotrypsinogen and other zygomens
Process of protein self splicing is an autocatalytic process that proceeds by itself in which the excised peptide appears to remove itself from the protein similar to RNA
Haemoglobin
Hill
-
-
the equation can be rearranged using logs so that the gradient is the HIll equation (and a gradient of 1 means no cooperativity)
-
MWC model
-
when there is no oxygen T state is favoured and is more stable (since has has lower conformational free energy than R)
-
switch from T to R
binding oxygen causes the haem ring structure to flatten lowering the Kd value fo radditional binding at other subunits
-

-
function
-
teh improved functional properties of loading in lungs and discharging in tissues as a result of sigmoidal binding curve caused by subunit interaction
these are needed to support increased demands for oxygen transport through blood vessels (closed circulatory system) rather than via body cavity (open circulatory system) in vertebrates
This is an example of cooperativity since it is the binding of the same type of ligand at a different site
If there was no cooperativity and the shape looked like a typical Michaelis Menten binding curve it would take an 81 fold increase in oxygen concentration to accomplish same loading increase

Graph
-
presence of an enzyme- rate of reaction is no longer dependent on [reactant] and approaches a maximum
the rate shows a linear dependence on [enzyme] so the enzyme catalysed reaction involves the formation of a complex between enzyme and reactant (and model assumes ES complex as first step in reaction)
Equation
-
maximum rate also equals Kcat x [enzyme] so initial rate is dependent dependent of [enzyme] since Kcat is constant
at constant [S], initial rate equals maximum rate
Kcat is the turnover number and is the number of substrate molecules converted into product per molecule of enzyme per unit time when enzyme is fully saturated
Km is equal to [S] at which the rate is half its maximum value and is a measure of the affinity of an enzyme for its substrate; the lower Km value, the more effective the enzyme is a dilute concentrations since lower [S] required
-
Catalyst
it is a substance that increases the rate of a chemical reaction without itself being changed in the process, but do not affect teh thermodynamics
enzymes
-
most are proteins, exception ribozymes
they are specific and regulate activity, and increase the rate at which the reaction reaches the transition state
enzymes lower the energy of the transition state and so lowers activation energy (where they either form reactants again or products)
transition states are extremely short lived, but intermediates are more stable. Intermediates can be trapped but transition states cannot
-
substrates are bound to enzyme by multiple weak interactions, which involve side groups to peptide bonds (electrostatic and interactions and hydrogen bonds)
-
-
prosthetic group
they are nonpolypeptide small molecule or ion that is bound in the acitive site and plays role in mechanism
some can be chemically modified during the reaction and need to be replaced or regenerated (like NAD+, FAD, and haem groups
