摘要

Biotin protein ligases constitute a family of enzymes that catalyze the linkage of biotin to biotin-ndependent carboxylases. In bacteria, these enzymes are functionally divided into two classes: the monofunc-ntional enzymes that catalyze only biotin addition and the bifunctional enzymes that also bind to DNA tonregulate transcription initiation. Biochemical and biophysical studies of the bifunctional Escherichia colinligase suggest that several properties of the enzyme have evolved to support its additional regulatory role.nIncluded among these properties are the order of substrate binding and linkage between the oligomeric statenand ligand binding. To test this hypothesized relationship between functionality and biochemical properties innligases, we have conducted studies of the monofunctional ligase from Pyrococcus horikoshii. Sedimentationnequilibrium measurements to determine the effect of ligand binding on oligomerization indicate that thenenzyme exists as a dimer regardless of liganded state. Measurements performed using isothermal titrationncalorimetry and fluorescence spectroscopy indicate that, in contrast to the bifunctional E. coli enzyme,nsubstrate binding does not occur by an obligatorily ordered mechanism. Finally, thermodynamic signaturesnof ligand binding to the monofunctional enzyme differ significantly from those measured for the bifunctionalnenzyme. These results indicate a correlation between the functional complexity of biotin protein ligases andntheir detailed biochemical characteristics.
