我们如何区分酶动力学中的正协同作用和自催化作用?

How can we distinguish positive cooperativity from auto-catalysis in enzyme kinetics?

Sharmistha Dhatt, Kinshuk Banerjee, Kamal Bhattacharyya

摘要:

在酶动力学文献中存在涉及催化速率与(初始)底物浓度的不同图形图,以估计反应常数。但是,这些标准图中没有一个可以明确区分速率增强的两个重要机制:寡聚酶的活性位点之间的正协同性和具有单个活性位点的酶的中间复合物的自催化。我们在这里通过为后者提供一个很好的线性图来实现这种区别。重要的是,为了完成这项任务,除了作为底物浓度的函数的稳态速率之外,不需要额外的信息。

英文摘要:

Different graphical plots involving the catalytic rate with the (initial) substrate concentration exist in the enzyme kinetics literature to estimate the reaction constants. But, none of these standard plots can unambiguously distinguish between the two important mechanisms of rate enhancement: positive cooperativity among the active sites of an oligomeric enzyme and auto-catalysis of the intermediate complex of an enzyme with a single active site. We achieve this distinction here by providing a nice linear plot for the latter. Importantly, to accomplish this task, no extra information other than the steady-state rate as a function of substrate concentration is required.
