Recapping
  • Enzymes CANNOT change the thermodynamics of a
    reaction DGo or Keq
  • They CANNOT change the direction of a reaction or
    the position of the equilibrium.
  • They DO increase the rate of the reaction by
    lowering the activation energy.

12
Reaction Rate Measurements
  • The rate of a reaction is measured as the moles
    of product produced per unit time.
  • The most user friendly units are mmol/min.
  • The term ASSAY is used in Biochemistry to
    describe a reaction that measures something
    enzyme activity or the concentration of a
    metabolite.

Calculating Velocity
  • Using the Alkaline Phosphatase Experiment,
    suppose you had a change in Absorbance per min
    (DA/min) of 0.3..
  • Step 1 Convert to Dconcentration/min by dividing
    the DA/min by the extinction coefficient (e), say
    15 mM-1cm-1 giving Dconc/min 0.02 mM/min
  • Step 2 Convert to nmoles/min in the assay. The
    assay is 1 mL so 0.02 mM/min 0.02 mmol/mL/min
    20 nmol/min/assay.

The Significance of KM
  • The S which gives ½ Vmax
  • A measure of the affinity the enzyme has for the
    substrate
  • A low KM means high affinity and vice versa a
    high KM means low affinity
  • The KM is independent of the E

30
What is Vmax?
  • Vmax is measured in Units (U).
  • 1 Unit (U) is the amount of enzyme required to
    release 1 mmole of product (P) in 1 minute under
    Vmax conditions.
  • You measure the rate of the reaction over a short
    time (min).

31
Vmax and E
The Vmax can be used practically to measure the
amount of active enzyme in a sample e.g. serum.
You will use this in the gene expression prac.

32
kcat
  • The number of molecules of substrate converted to
    product by 1 molecule of enzyme in 1 second.
  • This is equivalent to the mmoles of product
    produced per sec per mmole of enzyme OR the
    nmoles P/sec/nmol E
  • Units are seconds-1

33
Calculating kcat
  • Begin with the Vmax
  • In the Alkaline Phosphatase experiment the Vmax
    is usually around 30 nmol/min.
  • This works out to 0.5 nmoles P/sec (/60)
  • Now all we need to know is how many nmoles of
    Enzyme produced this rate.
  • To calculate this we need to know how much enzyme
    we added to the assay and the molecular weight of
    the enzyme.

34
Calculating kcat
  • In the Alkaline Phosphatase experiment you added
    20 ?L of enzyme solution containing 50 ?g/mL
    enzyme. This means we have 2050 ng 1 ?g.
  • So now our Vmax rate is
  • 0.5 nmoles P/sec/1 000 ng E

35
Calculating kcat
  • The Vmax rate is
  • 0.5 nmoles P/sec/1 000 ng E
  • If the molecular weight of Alkaline Phosphatase
    is 100,000 then there is 1/100 (1 000/100 000)
    of a nmole of Enzyme in the assay.

36
Calculating kcat
  • If 1/100 th of a nmole of Enzyme catalyses the
    formation of 0.5 nmoles of product in 1 second
    then.
  • 1 nmole of enzyme will catalyse 0.5100 50
    nmoles of product in 1 second
  • The Kcat 50 nmol sec-1nmol-1
  • The Kcat 50 sec-1

37
The Steady State Assumption
  • Used to explain the shape of the hyperbola
  • A level of ES, ES, is established very early in
    the reaction
  • This ES level is dependent on the S
  • This ES remains constant throughout the
    reaction.

44
The Michaelis Menten Relationship
  • The equation below describes the hyperbola.
  • Velocity Vmax S
  • (S Km)

45
Deriving the Michaelis Menten Relationship
  • The steady state assumption means that the rate
    of formation of ES the rate of breakdown of ES

46
Deriving the Michaelis Menten Relationship
  • Mathematically the steady state assumption means
    that the rate of formation of ES the rate of
    breakdown of ES.
  • Rate of formation k1ES
  • Rate of breakdown k-1ES k2ES
  • Therefore k1ES k-1ES k2ES

47
Deriving the Michaelis Menten Relationship
  • k1ES k-1ES k2ES
  • Simplifying k1ES ES (k-1 k2)
  • Now KM (k-1 k2)/ k1
  • So ES ES KM

48
Deriving the Michaelis Menten Relationship
  • ES ES KM
  • Now the Total amount of Enzyme ET Efree ES
  • ?E Efree ET ES
  • ET ES ES KM/S
  • ET ES KM/S ES

49
Deriving the Michaelis Menten Relationship
  • ET ES KM/S ES
  • Now Vmax ETk2 and velocity (v) ESk2
  • So multiplying both sides by k2
  • ET k2 ES k2(KM/S 1)
  • Vmax v (KM/S 1)

50
Deriving the Michaelis Menten Relationship
  • Vmax v (KMS)/S )
  • Cross multiplying 1/v (KM S)
  • Inverting V Vmax S
  • (KMS)

VmaxS
51
kcat/KM
  • This measurement reflects the efficiency of the
    enzyme.
  • What we really want to know is how often ES goes
    to E P.
  • An efficient enzyme will send all the ES to E
    P.
  • An inefficient enzyme will send some back to E
    S

52
kcat/KM
  • Kcat is k2 and KM (k-1 k2)/k1
  • So kcat/KM k2 k1 / (k-1 k2)
  • Now if the enzyme is really efficient k-1 will be
    really small (very little ES going back to E S)
  • kcat/KM approaches k1. This is limited by the
    rate of diffusion.

53
Inhibitors
  • Inhibitors can be irreversible or reversible.
  • Irreversible inhibitors usually covalently bind
    to the enzyme they are often slower to act (time
    dependent inhibition) and present as
    non-competitive inhibition. They cannot be
    dialysed out or diluted out.
  • Reversible inhibitors competitive,
    non-competitive, mixed, uncompetitive

54
The Competitive Inhibitor
  • The inhibitor binds to the same site on the
    enzyme as the substrate
  • Thus it competes with the substrate
  • It eventually reaches Vmax
  • It needs more substrate to do it ? Km increases

The Non-Competitive Inhibitor
  • The inhibitor binds to a site other than the
    substrate binding site
  • Both I and S can bind to the enzyme
    simultaneously
  • It never reaches Vmax
  • The Km does not change
  • It is like adding less enzyme to an assay

The mixed Non-Competitive Inhibitor
  • The inhibitor binds to a site other than the
    substrate binding site
  • But the binding of the substrate to the enzyme
    alters the affinity of the inhibitor for the
    enzyme
  • Both Km and Vmax change
  • The most common type of inhibition

Regulatory Enzymes
  • Allosteric regulation the binding of a small
    molecule (ligand) distant from the active site,
  • Covalent modification, often phosphorylation of
    serine, threonine or tyrosine residues,

71
Regulatory Enzymes
  • Changes in the amount of enzyme either by changes
    in gene expression, (often at the level of
    transcription) or protein turnover,
  • Substrate availability,
  • Inhibition (competitive etc),
  • Activation of zymogens or pro-enzymes.
