To facilitate structure–function studies on MR using non-natural amino acid substitutions, we engineered the Cys92Ser/Cys264Ser variant (dmMR) as a platform for introdu- cingCysresiduesatspecific locations for subsequent covalent modification. While the highly reactive thiol of Cys furnishes a site for chemical modification, site-specificity requires that other Cys residues be non-reactive or replaced by a non-reactive amino acid, especially if chemical modification is con- ducted under denaturing conditions. The catalytic efficiency of dmMR is reduced only ~2-fold relative to wild-type MR, making dmMR a viable platform for the site-specificintroductionofCys.Asan example, the inactive Lys166Cys variant of dmMR was treated with ethylenimine under denaturing con- ditions to replace the Brønsted acid-base catalyst Lys 166 with the non-natural amino acid γ-thialysine.

  • Impact of Temperature on the Time Required for the Establishment of Primordial Biochemistry, and for the Evolution of Enzymes
    Impact of temperature on the time required for the establishment of primordial biochemistry, and for the evolution of enzymes Randy B. Stockbridge, Charles A. Lewis, Jr., Yang Yuan, and Richard Wolfenden1 Department of Biochemistry and Biophysics, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, NC 27599 Contributed by Richard Wolfenden, September 29, 2010 (sent for review August 1, 2010) All reactions are accelerated by an increase in temperature, but the magnitude of that effect on very slow reactions does not seem to have been fully appreciated. The hydrolysis of polysaccharides, for example, is accelerated 190,000-fold when the temperature is raised from 25 to 100 °C, while the rate of hydrolysis of phosphate monoester dianions increases 10,300,000-fold. Moreover, the slow- est reactions tend to be the most heat-sensitive. These tendencies collapse, by as many as five orders of magnitude, the time that would have been required for early chemical evolution in a warm environment. We propose, further, that if the catalytic effect of a “proto-enzyme”—like that of modern enzymes—were mainly enthalpic, then the resulting rate enhancement would have in- creased automatically as the environment became cooler. Several powerful nonenzymatic catalysts of very slow biological reactions, notably pyridoxal phosphate and the ceric ion, are shown to meet that criterion. Taken together, these findings greatly reduce the time that would have been required for early chemical evolution, countering the view that not enough time has passed for life to Fig. 1. Half-lives (t1∕2) and first order rate constants (k) of some biological have evolved to its present level of complexity.

Although each reaction catalyzed by these enzymes is initiated by this common step, their overall reactions (including racemization, â-elimination of water, â-elimination of ammonia, and cycloisomerization) as well as the stereochemical consequences (syn Vs anti) of the â-elimination reactions are diverse. Analysis of sequence and structural similarities among these proteins suggests that all of their chemical reactions are mediated by a common active site architecture modified through evolution to allow the enolic intermediates to partition to different products in their respective active sites Via different overall mechanisms. All of these enzymes retain the ability to catalyze the thermodynamically difficult step of proton abstraction. These homologous proteins, designated the “enolase superfamily”, include enolase as well as more metabolically specialized enzymes: mandelate racemase, galactonate dehydratase, glucarate dehydratase, muconate-lactonizing enzymes, N-acylamino acid racemase, â-methylaspartate ammonia-lyase, and o-succinylbenzoate synthase.

Lloyd* Received (in XXX, XXX) Xth XXXXXXXXX 20XX, Accepted Xth XXXXXXXXX 20XX 5 DOI: 10.1039/b000000x Mandelic acid is a chiral metabolite of the industrial pollutant styrene and is used in chemical skin peels, as a urinary antiseptic and as a component of other medicines. In humans, S-mandelic acid undergoes rapid chiral inversion to R-mandelic acid by an undefined pathway but it has been proposed to proceed via the acyl-CoA esters, S- and R-2-hydroxy-2-phenylacetyl-CoA, in an analogous pathway to that for 10 Ibuprofen.
