Lectures in Enzymology Ni-men ha! My name is Ioan LASCU Please send me an email for any question during these lectures! i.lascu@ ibgc.cnrs.fr I am Professor of Biochemistry at the University of Bordeaux (France)
My scientific interests: • Kinetic studies of phosphotransferases • Nucleoside diphosphate kinase • ATP + GDP ADP + GTP • Folding and stability of proteins • Amyloid fibrils Lectures in Enzymology
Bordeaux is the 6th town of France (about 600,000 people). It is famous for its wine and for its University.
University of Bordeaux, France Lectures in Enzymology
Lectures in Enzymology Sciences used for studying enzymes “Classical” biochemistry (cell metabolism) Biophysics Organic Chemistry –mechanism, stereochemistry Physical Chemistry – kinetics, thermodynamics Structural Biology Molecular Biology Bioinformatics But…… Studying enzymology may help understanding all that sciences
I will try to explain the concepts in a simple way, so you may understand the basis of complex phenomena and may use these concepts for other situations. …..but….. « The trouble with simple things is that one must understand them very well » (Anonymous, cited by Donald T. Haynie, Biological Thermodynamics, Cambridge University Press 2001) Lectures in Enzymology Please interrupt me and ask if something is not clear (or we may discuss after the lectures)
You may have success if a carreful analysis first, instead of working first…. Our example 1 Nucleoside diphosphate kinase from red blood cells About 10 mg from 3 kg of red blood cells Several isoenzymes What to do next? Other scientists separated the isoenzymes by complicated procedures and studied their kinetic properties
At that time (1988-89) I was working in Romania and we were very poor and no good chromatographic equipment (in fact I fabricated myself columns, ion exchangers and affinity material) We made the following theoretical analysis: The several HEXAMERIC isoforms may be just the random association of two polypeptide chains, like lactate dehydrogenase If this is trus, the two kind of polypeptide, unfolded in urea, may be easily separated by simple ion exchange chromatography…. Calculated abondance of isoforms
The results: NDPK-B (basic) NDPK-A (acidic)
How to make Sepharose using a paint blower? Agarose droplets are spherical, if you cool them rapidly You get Sepharose! Simple method for the preparation of spherical agarose and composite gel particles PRESECAN E. ; PORUMB H. ; LASCU I. ; Inst. hygiene public health, Cluj-Napoca 3400, Romania Journal of chromatography 1989, vol. 469, pp. 396-398
You may have success if a carreful analysis first, instead of working first…. Our example 2 A B While teaching protein structure, one of the most proeminent properties of the native state is COOPERATIVITY. It is stabilized by a large number of weak interactions (Fig B rather than A). Experimentally, cooperativity translates by sigmoid denaturation and renaturation curves
What would means a non-cooperative renaturation curve (here in red)? As we teach « native structure is cooperative », a non-cooperative curve would means that the structure is non-native! 350 300 250 200 150 100 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 NDP kinase A denaturation/renaturation followed by the fluorescence of Trp residues wt, denaturation wt, renaturation S120G, denaturation Fluorescence intensity (arbitrary units) S120G, renaturation [ Urea ], (M)
Why studying the enzymes? “Because they exist” ….. basic knowledge Role in metabolism Enzymes are used in the analytical biochemistry to measure metabolite concentrations in complex misture (body fluids) Enzymes are used in the industrial biochemistry, to prepare useful molecules Most drugs are enzyme inhibitors ENZYMES FOR PLEASURE AND FOR PROFIT Lectures in Enzymology an over-view
All lectures are available as PDF format in the following site http://lascu.free.fr/enzymology(be careful not to tape capital letters) Lectures in Enzymology: an over-view
Lectures in Enzymology: an over-view There are three major TOOLS for studying enzyme mechanism Steady-state kinetics but enzymology is not a branch of the Algebra Structure Mutagenesis (site-directed or random)
Your model is oversimplified and has nothing to do with biology! Your model is too complicated and has no predictive power! Molecular biologist Biological Physicist Lectures in Enzymology: an over-view Preparing lectures is useful for students (I hope) but for the professor, too: is the opportunity to think about the progress in enzymology since the last teaching! There are different ways to teach enzymology
Lectures in Enzymology: an over-view Not all chapters of enzymology and not all classes of enzymes will be discussed here Examples will be from well studied pathways (glycolysis) Detailed description of proteases and phosphotransferases Once you have understood how the experimental data will be integrated into a theoretical model for one enzyme, it would be easy to do this for another enzyme

Specificity --- the ability of enzymes to discriminate between a substrate and a competing molecule. High specificity --- functional groups in the active site of enzyme arranged optimally to form a variety of weak interactions with a given substrate in the transition state

Classification des enzymes La nomenclature EC (EC est le sigle de Enzyme Commission numbers, la Commission des enzymes) est une classification numérique des enzymes, basée sur la réaction chimique qu'elles catalysent. En tant que système de nomenclature des enzymes, chaque numéro EC est associé à un nom recommandé pour l'enzyme correspondante. Chaque code d'enzyme consiste en les lettres majuscules « EC » suivies de quatre nombres séparés par des points. Ces nombres représentent chacun une étape dans la précision de la classification de l'enzyme. Par exemple, l'enzyme tripeptide aminopeptidase a le code EC 3.4.11.4 qui est construit comme suit : 3 signifie une hydrolase (enzymes qui utilisent l'eau pour détruire une autre molécule), 3.4 signifie hydrolases agissant sur des liens peptidiques, 3.4.11 implique celles qui détachent un acide aminé amino-terminal d'un polypeptide et 3.4.11.4 implique celles qui détachent cet acide aminé amino-terminal d'un tripeptide.
Classification des enzymes Le niveau supérieur de cette classification est * EC 1 Oxydoréductases : catalysent les réactions d'oxydo-réduction * EC 2 Transférases : transfèrent un groupement fonctionnel (par exemple un groupe méthyle ou phosphate) * EC 3 Hydrolases : catalysent l'hydrolyse de diverses liaisons * EC 4 Lyases : brisent diverses liaisons par d'autres procédés que l'hydrolyse et l'oxydation * EC 5 Isomérases : catalysent les réactions d'isomérisation dans une simple molécule * EC 6 Ligases : joignent deux molécules par des liaisons covalentes La nomenclature complète peut être vue à l'adresse http://www.chem.qmul.ac.uk/iubmb/enzyme/
Classification des enzymes EC 1 Oxidoreductases EC 1.1 Acting on the CH-OH group of donors EC 1.2 Acting on the aldehyde or oxo group of donors EC 1.3 Acting on the CH-CH group of donors EC 1.4 Acting on the CH-NH2 group of donors EC 1.5 Acting on the CH-NH group of donors EC 1.6 Acting on NADH or NADPH EC 1.1.1.1 alcohol dehydrogenase EC 1.1.1.2 alcohol dehydrogenase (NADP+) EC 1.1.1.3 homoserine dehydrogenase EC 1.1.1.4 (R,R)-butanediol dehydrogenase EC 1.1.1.5 acetoin dehydrogenase EC 1.1.1.6 glycerol dehydrogenase EC 1.1.1.7 propanediol-phosphate dehydrogenase EC 1.1.1.8 glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (NAD+) EC 1.1.1.9 D-xylulose reductase EC 1.1.1.287 D-arabinitol dehydrogenase (NADP+) EC 1.1.1.288 xanthoxin dehydrogenase EC 1.1.1.289 sorbose reductase EC 1.1.1.290 4-phosphoerythronate dehydogenase EC 1.1.1 With NAD or NADP as acceptor EC 1.1.2 With a cytochrome as acceptor EC 1.1.3 With oxygen as acceptor EC 1.1.4 With a disulfide as acceptor EC 1.1.5 With a quinone or similar compound as acceptor EC 1.1.99 With other acceptors

L'enzymologie n'est pas une branche de l’algèbre ! Exemple de questions d’examen: 1. Ecrire la réaction catalysée par la cholinestérase (formules chimiques obligatoires!) 3a. Déduire l'équation de Michaelis qui décrit ce mécanisme. De quel type d’inhibition s’agît-il ? Noté zéro si les passages n’ont pas été expliqués, même si l’équation finale est correcte !
