Tentoxin. An uncompetitive inhibitor of lettuce chloroplast coupling factor 1.
The interaction of tentoxin [cyclo-(-L-leucyl-N-methyl-(Z)-dehydrophenylalanyl-glycyl-N-methyl-L-alanyl-)] with solubilized lettuce chloroplast coupling factor 1 was characterized by direct binding studies, measurement of the time course of ATPase inhibition, and steady-state enzyme kinetics. Neither substrates, products or Ca2+ competed with the tentoxin binding site, nor did they induce any large change in tentoxin affinity. The inhibition of lettuce chloroplast coupling factor 1 ATPase was found to be the time dependent, and at equilibrium the affinities estimated by equilibrium ultrafiltration and enzyme inhibition were similar (1.8 . 10(8) M-1). The steady-state kinetics best fit an uncompetitive pattern suggesting that the inhibited steps follow an irreversible step occurring after ATP binding.
