[Titration of active centers of enzymes by means of reversible inhibitors. Dipeptidyl-carboxypeptidase - inhibitor SQ 20881 from venom of the snake Bothrops jararca)].
The essentials of estimation of the number of enzyme active sites by reversible inhibition are discussed. The necessity of evaluation of the substrate effect on the equilibrium of the systems with a rapidly dissociating enzyme -- inhibitor complex has been demonstrated. Some procedures for determination of the number of active sites of dipeptidyl-carboxypeptidase (EC 3.4.15.1) from bovine kidney cortex, using the competitive inhibitor SQ 20 881 (Glu-Trp-Pro-Arg-Pro-Gln-Ile-Pro-Pro) have been developed. The kinetic and equilibrium constants for the enzyme-inhibitor interaction (ki = 3.2 . 10(6) M-1s-1, k-i = 8 ms-1 and Ki = 2.5 +/- 0.5 nm) have been calculated.
