Lecture 12 Enzyme regulation
![Page 2: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
What Factors Influence Enzymatic Activity?
• Two of the more obvious ways to regulate the amount of activity are
1. To increase or decrease the number of enzyme molecule (enzyme level)
2. To increase or decrease the activity of each enzyme molecule (enzyme activity)
![Page 3: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
• A general overview of factors influencing enzyme activity includes the following considerations
1. Rate depends on substrate availability 2. Rate slows as product accumulates 3. Allosteric effectors may be important 4. Enzymes can be modified covalently 5. Genetic controls (transcription regulation) -
induction and repression (enzyme level)6. Zymogens, isozymes and modulator proteins
may play a role

![Page 5: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Non-covalent InteractionsSubstrate availability
• Non-regulatory enzymes generally exhibit hyperbolic kinetics (Michaelis-Menton)
• At low substrate concentration, reaction rate proportional to substrate concentration
• Regulatory enzymes generally exhibit sigmoidal kinetics (positive cooperativity)
• Changes of substrate concentrations at normal physiological levels greatly alter reaction rate
![Page 6: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
• Regulatory enzymes are usually the enzymes that are the rate-limiting step, in a pathway, meaning that after this step a particular reaction pathway will go to completion
![Page 7: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

Non-covalent InteractionsAllosteric Regulation
• Binding of allosteric effectors at allosteric sites affect catalytic efficiency of the enzyme
![Page 9: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Non-covalent InteractionsAllosteric Regulation
• Allosteric Activators– Decrease Km (increases the enzyme bindin
g affinity)– Increases Vmax (increases the enzyme cata
lytic efficiency)
![Page 10: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Non-covalent InteractionsAllosteric Regulation
• Allosteric Inhibitors– Increases Km (decreases enzyme binding affi
nity)– Decreases Vmax (decreases enzyme catalytic
efficiency)
![Page 11: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Molecules that act as allosteric effectors
• End products of pathways– Feedback inhibition
• Substrates of pathways– Feed-forward activators
• Indicators of Energy Status– ATP/ADP/AMP– NAD/NADH– Citrate & acetyl CoA
![Page 12: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Allosteric Example• Feedback Inhibition - This occurs
when an end-product of a pathway accumulates as the metabolic demand for it declines.
• This end-product in turn binds to the regulatory enzyme at the start of the pathway and decreases its activity - the greater the end-product levels the greater the inhibition of enzyme activity.
![Page 13: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

Feed-forward activators Phosphofructokinase ( PFK)
Fructose-6-P + ATP -----> Fructose-1,6-bisphosphateFructose-1,6-bisphosphate + ADPADP
•PFK catalyzes 1st committed step in glycolysis (10 steps total)
(Glucose + 2ADP + 2 NAD+ + 2Pi 2pyruvate + 2ATP + 2NADH)
•ADP is an allosteric activator of PFK
![Page 15: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Allosteric modulators bind to site other than the active site
Fructose-6-P + ATP -----> Fructose-1,6-bisphosphateFructose-1,6-bisphosphate + ADPADP
ADPADP
Allosteric Activator (ADP) binds distal to active site
PFK exists as a homotetramer in bacteria and mammals
![Page 16: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Vo vs [S] plots give sigmoidal curve for at least one substrate
Binding of this allosteric inhibitor or this activator does not effect Vmax, but does alter Km
Allosteric enzyme do not follow M-M kinetics
Activator can shift hyperbolic (as if there were no T state)
![Page 17: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

• A) cooperativity• B) feedback inhibition• C) both activating and inhibitoryactivity• D) an enzyme with more than one subunit• E) the need for cofactors
![Page 21: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Sample questions
• Describe allosteric regulation of enzyme activity?
An allosteric enzyme is one in which the activity of the enzyme can be controlled by the binding of a molecule to the “allosteric site”, somewhere other than the active site. Thus allosteric control of an enzyme can be classed in two ways. A positive allosteric regulation is the binding of a molecule to the enzyme which increase the rate of reaction. The opposite is a negative allosteric regulation. An example for this is phosphofructokinase, which is promoted by a high AMP concentration, and inhibited by a high ATP concentration.
![Page 22: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Non-covalent InteractionsProtein-Protein Interactions
• Calmodulin (CALcium MODULted proteIN)
– Binding of Ca++ to calmodulin changes its shape and allows binding and activation of certain enzymes
![Page 23: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Binding of calcium to Calmodulin changes the shape of the protein
Unbound Calmodulin on left
Calcium bound Calmodulin on right. Stars indicate exposed non-polar ‘grooves’ that non-covalently binds proteins
![Page 24: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Calmodulin
• Extracellular [Ca] = 5 mM
• Intracellular [Ca] = 10-4 mM– Bound Ca can be released by hormonal actio
n, nerve innervation, light, ….– Released Ca binds to Calmodulin which activ
ates a large number of proteins
![Page 25: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Calmodulin plays a role in:
• Muscle contraction• Inflammation• Apoptosis• Memory• Immune response….• Metabolism
– Activates phosphorylase kinase• Stimulates glycogen degradation during exercise
![Page 26: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
• A general overview of factors influencing enzyme activity includes the following considerations
1. Rate depends on substrate availability 2. Rate slows as product accumulates 3. Allosteric effectors may be important 4. Enzymes can be modified covalently 5. Genetic controls (transcription regulation) -
induction and repression (enzyme level)6. Zymogens, isozymes and modulator proteins
may play a role
![Page 27: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Covalent Regulation of Enzyme ActivityPhosphorylation and Dephosphorylation
• Addition or deletion of phosphate groups to particular serine, threonine, or tyrosine residues alter the enzymes activity
![Page 28: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Enzymes regulated by covalent modification are called interconvertible enzymes.
The enzymes (protein kinase and protein phosphatase) catalyzing the conversion of the interconvertible enzyme between its two forms are called converter enzymes. In this example, the free enzyme form is catalytically active, whereas the phosphoryl-enzyme form represents an inactive state.
The -OH on the interconvertible enzyme represents an -OH group on a specific amino acid side chain in the protein (for example, a particular Ser residue) capable of accepting the phosphoryl group.
![Page 29: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Covalent Regulation of Enzyme ActivityEnzyme Cascades
• Enzymes activating enzymes allows for amplification of a small regulatory signal
![Page 30: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Sample questions
• Which statement is false about covalent modification?• A) It is reversible.• B) It is slower than allosteric regulation.• C) It is irreversible.• D) Phosphorylation is a common covalent modification.
![Page 31: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Sample questions
Protein kinases are enzymes that act on other enzymes by adding phosphates groups. When the enzyme is phosphorylated, it changes its activity (it becomes more or less active, depending on the enzyme). This regulatory mechanism of enzymatic activity is called:
• A) Allosteric Control• B) Competitive inhibition• C) Covalent Modification• D) Isozymes Modification • E) Zymogen activation
![Page 32: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)

![Page 33: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Changes in Enzyme Abundance
• Inducible vs Constitutive Enzymes
• Induction is caused by increases in rate of gene transcription.– Hormones activate transcriptional factors
• Increase synthesis of specific mRNA• Increase synthesis of specific enzymes
![Page 34: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
• Induction (an increase caused by an effecter molecule) of enzyme synthesis is a common mechanism - this can manifest itself at the level of gene expression, RNA translation, and post-translational modifications. The actions of many hormones and/or growth factors on cells will ultimately lead to an increase in the expression and translation of "new" enzymes not present prior to the signal.
Regulation of Enzyme Concentrations: Induction
![Page 35: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Regulation of Enzyme Concentrations: Degradation
• The degradation of proteins is constantly occurring in the cell.
• Proteolytic degradation is an irreversible mechanism.
![Page 36: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
• Protein degradation by proteases is compartmentalized in the cell in the lysosome (which is generally non-specific), or in macromolecular complexes termed proteasomes.
• Degradation by proteasomes is regulated by a complex pathway involving transfer of a 76 aa polypeptide, ubiquitin, to targeted proteins. Ubiquination of protein targets it for degradation by the proteasome. This pathway is highly conserved in eukaryotes, but still poorly understood

Hormones, Receptors, and Communication Between Cells
• Cell-surface receptors– Water soluble hormones
• Peptide hormones (insulin), catecholamines, neurotransmitters
• Three class of cell-surface receptors– Ligand-Gated Receptors– Catalytic Receptors– G Protein-linked Receptors
![Page 44: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Cell Surface Receptors
Ligand-Gated Receptors
• Binding of a ligand (often a neurotransmitter) affects flow of ions in/out of cell
• Gamma-amino butyric acid (GABA) binds and opens chloride channels in the brain– Valium (anti-anxiety drug) reduces the amount of GABA
required to open the chloride channels
![Page 45: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)

• The enzymes produces intracellular messengers– Signal transduction– Second messengers activate p
rotein kinases
![Page 47: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Intracellular Messengers:
Signal Transduction Pathways
• Cyclic AMP (cAMP)
• Diacylglycerol (DAG) & Inositol Triphosphate (IP3)
• Cyclic GMP (cGMP)
![Page 48: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
cAMP is a Second Messenger
• Cyclic AMP is the intracellular agent of extracellular hormones - thus a ‘second messenger’
• Hormone binding stimulates a GTP-binding protein (G protein), releasing G(GTP)
• Binding of G(GTP) stimulates adenylyl cyclase to make cAMP
![Page 49: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
G-Protein-Linked Receptors:The cAMP Signal Transduction Pathway
• Two types of G-Proteins• Stimulating G protein (Gs)
– Activate adenylate cyclase
• Inhibitory G proteins (Gi)
– Inhibit adenylate cyclase
![Page 50: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
G Proteins
• G proteins are trimers – Three protein units
• Alpha• Beta• gamma
![Page 51: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
• Alpha proteins are different in Gs and Gi
– Both have GTPase activity– Alpha proteins modify adenylate cyclase activity
• AC stimulated by Alpha(s) when activated by a hormone• AC Inhibited by Alpha(I) when activated by other hormones
![Page 52: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Family of G Proteins
• Binding of hormones to receptors causes: – GTP to displace GDP – Dissociation of alpha pro
tein from beta and gamma subunits
– activation of the alpha protein
– Inhibition or activation of adenylate cyclase
– GTPase gradually degrades GTP and inactivates the alpha protein effect (clock)
![Page 53: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)

![Page 54: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
The cAMP Signal Transduction Pathway
• cAMP – intracellular messenger– Elevated cAMP can either activate or inhibit regulator
y enzymes• cAMP activates glycogen degradation• cAMP inhibits glycogen synthesis
• [cAMP] affected by rates of synthesis and degradation– Synthesis by adenylate cyclase– Degradation by phosphodiesterase
• Stimulated by insulin• Inhibited by caffeine
![Page 55: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)

What does cAMP do?Activation of Protein Kinase A by cAMP
• Protein kinase A– Activates or inhibits several enzymes – Inactive form: regulatory+catalytic subunits as
sociated– Active form: binding of cAMP disassociates su
bunits
![Page 57: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
Clinical Case : Cholera
• Severe and rapid diarrheal disease– Caused by Vibrio cholerae– Commonly shock after 4-12 hrs aft
er first symptoms, death 18 hrs – several days without rehydration therapy (subject can lose up to 20 liters of fluids)
– Source is commonly contaminated water
![Page 58: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
Choleramechanism of action
• V. cholarae produces protein that attaches to intestinal epithelial cells– Delivery subunit B (blue) facilitates entr
y of subunit A into cell
• Subunit A catalyzes ADP-ribosylation of the alpha-s subunit of Gs-protein
![Page 59: Lecture 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062312/556b9009d8b42ada358b46fa/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
Clinical Case
• V. cholerae toxin affects alpha-S subunit– Inactivates GTPase– Alpha-S subunit permanently active
• Stimulates adenylate cyclase– Overproduces cAMP– stimulates protein kinase – Phosphorylation of membrane ion transpo
rt proteins – massive losses of Na, Cl, K, HCO3

Hypothetical link to cystic fibrosis
• Cystic fibrosis characterized by– Salty sweat– Very thick mucous
• Homozygous genetic defect to chloride transport to mucous– Decreased chloride results in less water following due
to osmosis, leading to thicker mucous
• Heterozygous mutation (normal mucous) has transport protein resistant to effects of cholera toxin ?

Intracellular Messengers:
Signal Transduction Pathways
• Cyclic AMP (cAMP)
• Diacylglycerol (DAG) & Inositol Triphosphate (IP3)
• Cyclic GMP (cGMP)

DAG & IP3
Phosphotidylinositol Signal Transduction Pathway• Hormone activation of phospholipase C
– Via Gp protein• Phospholipase C hydrolyzes membrane phospholipids (p
hosphotidyl inositol) to produce DAG and IP3
• IP3 stimulates release of Ca from ER• Protein kinase C activated by DAG and calcium

cGMPThe cGMP Signal Transduction Pathway
• cGMP effects:
• lowering of blood pressure & decreasing CHD risk– Relaxation of cardiac muscle– Vasodilation of vascular smooth muscle– Increased excretion of sodium and water by kidney– Decreased aggregation by platelet cells

cGMPThe cGMP Signal Transduction Pathway
• Two forms of guanylate cyclase• Membrane-bound
• Activated by ANF (atrial natriuretic factor)– ANF released when BP elevated
• Cytosolic• Activated by nitric oxide• NO produced from arginine by NO synthase (activated by C
a)– Nitroglycerine slowly produces NO, relaxes cardiac and vascula
r smooth muscle, reduces angina
• cGMP activates Protein Kinase G– Phosphorylates smooth muscle proteins
