Kinetic mechanism of histidinol dehydrogenase: histidinol binding and exchange reactions.
Salmonella typhimurium histidinol dehydrogenase produces histidine from the amino alcohol histidinol by two sequential NAD-linked oxidations which form and oxidize a stable enzyme-bound histidinaldehyde intermediate. The enzyme was found to catalyze the exchange of 3H between histidinol and [4(R)-3H]NADH and between NAD and [4(S)-3H]NADH. The latter reaction proceeded at rates greater than kcat for the net reaction and was about 3-fold faster than the former. Histidine did not support an NAD/NADH exchange, demonstrating kinetic irreversibility in the second half-reaction. Specific activity measurements on [3H]histidinol produced during the histidinol/NADH exchange reaction showed that only a single hydrogen was exchanged between the two reactants, demonstrating that under the conditions employed this exchange reaction arises only from the reversal of the alcohol dehydrogenase step and not the aldehyde dehydrogenase reaction. The kinetics of the NAD/NADH exchange reaction demonstrated a hyperbolic dependence on the concentration of NAD and NADH when the two were present in a 1:2 molar ratio. The histidinol/NADH exchange showed severe inhibition by high NAD and NADH under the same conditions, indicating that histidinol cannot dissociate directly from the ternary enzyme-NAD-histidinol complex; in other words, the binding of substrate is ordered with histidinol leading. Binding studies indicated that [3H]histidinol bound to 1.7 sites on the dimeric enzyme (0.85 site/monomer) with a KD of 10 microM. No binding of [3H]NAD or [3H]NADH was detected. The nucleotides could, however, displace histidinol dehydrogenase from Cibacron Blue-agarose.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
