[The substrate specificity of trypsin. The interrelationship between the structure and reactivity for quasi-substrates, derivatives of O-alkylmethylphosphonic acid and carboxylic acids].
The kinetics of trypsin phosphorylation by thioesters of O-n-alkylmethylphosphonic acids, and reactivation of corresponding phosphoryl enzymes as well as kinetics of trypsin-catalyzed hydrolysis of p-nitrophenylcarboxylates have been studied. The rate constants for phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of trypsin depend on hydrophobicity of non-polar fragments in both substrate series in the same degree. On the other hand, the deacylation rate constants for a series of acyl trypsins do not change significantly while the apparent Michaelis constants change consistently with variations of non-polar acyl substituent. The study of substrate specificity of trypsin in terms of the transition state theory has allowed to elucidate the basis for low reactivity of trypsin towards the quasisubstrates.
