PROTEIN PHYSICS LECTURE 25 PROTEINS AT ACTION
Preferential binding of TS: RIGID enzyme F = k1x1= - k2x2 Ei = (ki/2)(xi)2 = F2/(2ki) Hooke’s & 2-nd Newton’s Energy is concentrated laws in the softer body. Effective catalysis: when substrate is softer than protein Kinetic energy cannot be stored for catalysis Friction stops a molecule within picoseconds: m(dv/dt) = -(3D)v [Stokes law] D – diameter; m ~ D3 – mass; – viscosity tkinet 10-13 sec (D/nm)2in water
Catalysis: stabilization of the transition state Theory: Pauling & Holden Experimental verification: Fersht __________ ______ P
Different folds with the same active site: the same biochemical function
Similar folds with different active sites: different biochemical function
Double sieve: movement of substrate from one active site to another
Movement in two-domain enzyme: One conformation for binding (and release), another for catalysis
Two-domain dehydrogenases: Universal NAD-binding domain; Individual substrate-binding domain
Movement in quaternary structure: Hemoglobin vs. myoglobin
