Solution NMR Spectroscopy for the Study of Enzyme Allostery

George P Lisi et al. Chem Rev. .

Abstract

Allostery is a ubiquitous biological regulatory process in which distant binding sites within a protein or enzyme are functionally and thermodynamically coupled. Allosteric interactions play essential roles in many enzymological mechanisms, often facilitating formation of enzyme-substrate complexes and/or product release. Thus, elucidating the forces that drive allostery is critical to understanding the complex transformations of biomolecules. Currently, a number of models exist to describe allosteric behavior, taking into account energetics as well as conformational rearrangements and fluctuations. In the following Review, we discuss the use of solution NMR techniques designed to probe allosteric mechanisms in enzymes. NMR spectroscopy is unequaled in its ability to detect structural and dynamical changes in biomolecules, and the case studies presented herein demonstrate the range of insights to be gained from this valuable method. We also provide a detailed technical discussion of several specialized NMR experiments that are ideally suited for the study of enzymatic allostery.

Figure 5
The reaction catalyzed by ATCase where carbamoyl phosphate and L-Asp are converted to N-carbamoyl-L-Asp via a proposed tetrahedral intermediate. The bisubstrate effector PALA is believed to mimic the tetrahedral intermediate and, depending on conditions, activate or inhibit ATCase. At low [Asp] and high [CP], PALA activates ATCase. However, as [PALA] increases, it occupies most of the sites where the catalytic intermediate is hydrolyzed, inhibiting activity. Figure taken from Ref. with permission from Elsevier.
