| Popis: | Vitamin B 2 -aldehyde-forming enzyme from Schizophyllum commune catalyzes oxidation of the 5′-hydroxymethyl of riboflavin to the formyl group. We have monitored enzyme activity by spectrophotometrically measuring the reduction of 2,6-dichlorophenol-indolphenol as electron acceptor to assess 35 riboflavin analogs as potential substrates or competitive inhibitors with the purpose of delimiting structural requirements of the substrate binding site. Analogs with side chains of two-to six-carbon length modified by deletion of secondary hydroxyls or by changes in their epimeric configuration are not oxidized. The ω-hydroxyalkyl-flavins ( n = 2-6) are competitive inhibitors ( K i = 7-16 μM) of riboflavin oxidation, as are some analogs with L-secondary hydroxyls in the side chain. Analogs with bulky substituents on the isoalloxazine ring are also not substrates. The enzyme does not significantly bind flavins with an 8α- N -imidazole; diethylamino, methylethylamino, dimethylamino, ethylamino, or ethoxy groups at position 8; methyl at 6; and β-hydroxyethylamino at position 2. Also the replacement of N with CH in 1-deazariboflavin disallows substrate reaction. Analogs with fluoro, chloro, methyl, amino, or methylamino at position 8; chloro at 7; methyl or carboxymethyl at 3; thio at 2, and C replacing N at positions 3 or 5 are substrates with relative V max values ranging from 27 to 110% that of riboflavin. The K m values for the analogs oxidized are all found to be in the micromolar range (22-176 μM). Overall specificity of the enzyme for riboflavin is found to be rather narrow and sterically limited, which suggests that the vitamin is the natural substrate. |
