Chemical modification of lysine residues at active-site of human placental estradiol 17 beta-dehydrogenase.
Estradiol 17 beta-dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.62.) activity was decreased by 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulfonate (TNBS), a reagent for modification of epsilon-amino moiety of lysine residues in a protein. The inactivation exhibited pseudo-first-order kinetics, and was protected by oxidyzed cofactors. Stoichiometric studies showed that the complete inactivation was caused by modification of one lysine residue per molecule of the enzyme. Differential modification with 5,5'-dithio-bis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid) (DTNB), TNBS and dithiothreitol (DTT) indicated that the residues of lysine and cysteine were located at the active-site and played an essential role in the catalytic function of the estradiol 17 beta-dehydrogenase.
