title: Inhibition of alpha-aminoadipate-semialdehyde dehydrogenase from Trichosporon adeninovorans by lysine and lysine analogues.
abstract: The alpha-aminoadipate-semialdehyde dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.31) of Trichosporon adeninovorans, an enzyme of lysine biosynthesis, was partially purified, some properties of the enzyme were studied and a novel regulatory pattern was found. The Km values of the enzyme were estimated to be 0.78 mM for alpha-aminoadipate, 1.0 mM for ATP, 0.23 mM for NADPH and 0.77 mM for MgCl2. It is demonstrated that the enzyme can be regulated by lysine and lysine analogues. L-Lysine (Ki of 0.09 mM), S-(beta-aminoethyl)-L-cysteine (Ki of 0.007 mM) and delta-hydroxylysine (Ki of 1.65 mM) inhibited the enzyme activity. The inhibition was competitive with respect to alpha-aminoadipate and non-competitive with respect to both ATP and NADPH.
