Reduction of intrinsic kinetic and thermodynamic barriers for enzyme-catalysed proton transfers from carbon acid substrates
چکیده انگلیسی
Many enzymes catalyse the heterolytic abstraction of the α-proton from a carbon acid substrate. Gerlt and Gassman have applied Marcus formalism to such proton transfer reactions to argue that transition states for concerted general acid-general base catalysed enolization at enzyme active sites occur late on the reaction coordinate (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 115 (1993) 11552). We postulate that as an enzyme evolves, it may decrease ΔG‡ for a proton transfer step associated with substrate enolization by following the path of steepest descent on the two-dimensional surface corresponding to ΔG‡, as defined by Marcus formalism. We show that for an enzyme that has decreased ΔG‡ following the path of steepest descent, the values of the intrinsic kinetic (ΔGint,E‡) and thermodynamic (ΔGE0) barriers for proton transfer reactions on the enzyme may be predicted from the known values of ΔGint,N‡ and ΔGN0 for the corresponding non-enzymic reaction and the free energy of activation on the enzyme (ΔGE‡). In addition, the enzymic transition state will occur later on the reaction coordinate than the corresponding non-enzymic transition state (i.e. xE‡>xN‡) if the condition (6-2)/82ΔGint,N‡.
