title: D-Mannitol dehydrogenase from Absidia glauca. Steady-state kinetic properties and the inhibitory role of mannitol 1-phosphate.
abstract: Steady-state kinetic studies including initial velocity for mannitol oxidation and fructose reduction and product inhibition for mannitol oxidation using fructose and reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) are in accord with a reaction mechanism best described as ordered Bi-Bi with NAD+ and NADH designated as the first substrate, last product, respectively at pH 8.8. All replots of slopes and intercepts from product inhibition studies were linear. Dead-end inhibition studies using mannitol 1-phosphate gave slope-parabolic, intercept-linear noncompetitive inhibition for both NAD+ and mannitol as substrates. The dead-end inhibitor is capable of binding multiply to the E, EA, and EQ forms of the enzyme to an extent that is controlled by the concentration of substrates. The EQ complex is inferred to undergo a conformational change, E'Q equilibrium EQ, since (V1/E1) greater than (KiqV2)/(KqE1), and no evidence for dead-end complex formation with NADH can be adduced. This is interpreted to mean that the release of fructose from the central complex is faster than the isomerization of the E-NADH complex. When mannitol is saturating, the noncompetitive inhibition against NAD+, as the variable substrate, becomes parabolic uncompetitive. A replot of the slopes of the parabola against mannitol 1-phosphate remains concave upward. This situation could arise if the conformational change we infer in the EQ complex opens up additional sites on the protein which can interact with the dead-end inhibitor.
