Objective
To understand Specificity of enzymes
![Page 3: Enzyme Specificity Lecture 3. Objective To understand Specificity of enzymes](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061517/56649dd45503460f94acce54/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Specificity means:
• Ability of an enzyme to catalyse a specific reaction and NO others
![Page 4: Enzyme Specificity Lecture 3. Objective To understand Specificity of enzymes](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061517/56649dd45503460f94acce54/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
The active site
• The active site, is a special region where catalysis occurs
• Occupies small part of enzyme volume
• The shape and the chemical environment inside the active site permits a chemical reaction to proceed more easily
![Page 5: Enzyme Specificity Lecture 3. Objective To understand Specificity of enzymes](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061517/56649dd45503460f94acce54/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Closer Look at Active site
•AS is not a point or line on enzyme
•It is a region in enzyme molecule where catalysis occurs
•AS has binding site and a catalytic site
•AS has a 3D Structure; residues widely separated in the primary structure are brought closer in the AS
•Clefts or crevices
![Page 6: Enzyme Specificity Lecture 3. Objective To understand Specificity of enzymes](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061517/56649dd45503460f94acce54/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
AS: General Characteristics
• Substrates bound by multiple weak interactions• AS include both polar and nonpolar amino acids and
create hydrophilic and hydrophobic microenvironment
• Specificity depends on precise arrangement of atoms in active site
• Substrates bound by multiple weak interactions• Specificity depends on precise arrangement of
atoms in active site

Cofactors
• An additional non-protein molecule that is needed by some enzymes to help the reaction
• Tightly bound cofactors are called prosthetic groups
• Cofactors that are bound and released easily are called coenzymes
• Many vitamins are coenzymes

The Substrate
• The substrate of an enzyme are the reactants that are activated by the enzyme
• Enzymes are specific to their substrates• The specificity is determined by the active site
![Page 11: Enzyme Specificity Lecture 3. Objective To understand Specificity of enzymes](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061517/56649dd45503460f94acce54/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

• Enzyme specificity can be for the type of reaction it catalyses or for its choice of substrates
• Substrate has a bond or linkage that can be attacked by the enzyme
![Page 13: Enzyme Specificity Lecture 3. Objective To understand Specificity of enzymes](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061517/56649dd45503460f94acce54/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Active site
At the active site, functional groups of the enzyme interact with substrate (eg: RNase A)
![Page 14: Enzyme Specificity Lecture 3. Objective To understand Specificity of enzymes](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061517/56649dd45503460f94acce54/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
This interaction may weaken one of its bonds or participate in a reaction by transforming an electron or proton
(eg: catalytic mechanism of Serine proteases)
![Page 15: Enzyme Specificity Lecture 3. Objective To understand Specificity of enzymes](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061517/56649dd45503460f94acce54/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
![Page 16: Enzyme Specificity Lecture 3. Objective To understand Specificity of enzymes](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061517/56649dd45503460f94acce54/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
• Enzyme and substrate binding releases ‘binding energy’.
• This free energy is used by enzyme to lower the activation energy of reaction and it provides specificity to reaction.
![Page 17: Enzyme Specificity Lecture 3. Objective To understand Specificity of enzymes](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061517/56649dd45503460f94acce54/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Chemical Reaction Pathway
![Page 18: Enzyme Specificity Lecture 3. Objective To understand Specificity of enzymes](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061517/56649dd45503460f94acce54/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Making reactions go faster
• Biological systems are very sensitive to temperature changes
• Increasing the temperature make molecules move faster
• Enzymes can increase the rate of reactions without increasing the temperature
• They do this by lowering the activation energy • They create a new reaction pathway “a short cut”
![Page 19: Enzyme Specificity Lecture 3. Objective To understand Specificity of enzymes](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061517/56649dd45503460f94acce54/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
An enzyme controlled pathway
Most Enzyme controlled reactions proceed 108 to 1011 times faster than corresponding non-enzymic reactions
![Page 20: Enzyme Specificity Lecture 3. Objective To understand Specificity of enzymes](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061517/56649dd45503460f94acce54/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Substrate binding site consists of an indentation or cleft on the surface of an enzyme. This cleft is complementary in shape to the substrate (geometric complementarity)
The amino acid residues that form the binding site are arranged to interact specifically with the substrate in an attractive manner (electronic complementarity)
![Page 21: Enzyme Specificity Lecture 3. Objective To understand Specificity of enzymes](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061517/56649dd45503460f94acce54/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Two Models
• Lock and Key • Induced Fit
![Page 22: Enzyme Specificity Lecture 3. Objective To understand Specificity of enzymes](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061517/56649dd45503460f94acce54/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
The Lock and Key Hypothesis
• Proposed by Emil Fisher in 1894• the active site exists “pre-formed” in the enzyme prior to
interaction with the substrate• Fit between the substrate and the active site of the enzyme is
exact , like a key fits into a lock very precisely• The key is analogous to the enzyme and the substrate
analogous to the lock • Temporary structure called the enzyme-substrate complex
formed • Products have a different shape from the substrate • Once formed, they are released from the active site, leaving it
free to become attached to another substrate
![Page 23: Enzyme Specificity Lecture 3. Objective To understand Specificity of enzymes](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061517/56649dd45503460f94acce54/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

The Lock and Key Hypothesis
• This explains enzyme specificity
• This explains the loss of activity when enzymes denature
![Page 25: Enzyme Specificity Lecture 3. Objective To understand Specificity of enzymes](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061517/56649dd45503460f94acce54/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
The Induced Fit Hypothesis
• Some proteins can change their shape (conformation)
• When a substrate combines with an enzyme, it induces a change in the enzyme’s conformation
• The active site is then moulded into a precise conformation
• Making the chemical environment suitable for the reaction
• The bonds of the substrate are stretched to make the reaction easier (lowers activation energy)
![Page 26: Enzyme Specificity Lecture 3. Objective To understand Specificity of enzymes](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061517/56649dd45503460f94acce54/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
![Page 27: Enzyme Specificity Lecture 3. Objective To understand Specificity of enzymes](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061517/56649dd45503460f94acce54/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
This model was proposed by Daniel Koshland in 1958It requires the active site to be floppy and substrate to be rigid
![Page 28: Enzyme Specificity Lecture 3. Objective To understand Specificity of enzymes](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061517/56649dd45503460f94acce54/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Chemical Specificity1. Group Specificity
• Enzymes may act on several different, though closely related substrates
• They catalyse reaction involving a particular group (eg: ALDH)
• ALDH catalyses the oxidation of variety of alcohols
• HK: assist the transfer of PO4 from ATP to several different hexose sugars
![Page 29: Enzyme Specificity Lecture 3. Objective To understand Specificity of enzymes](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061517/56649dd45503460f94acce54/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
2. Absolute specificity
• Enzyme acting only on one particular substrate
• Eg: Glucokinase catalyses the transfer of PO4 from ATP to glucose and to no other sugars
(other egs: urease, arginase, catalase)
![Page 30: Enzyme Specificity Lecture 3. Objective To understand Specificity of enzymes](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061517/56649dd45503460f94acce54/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
3. Steriochemical specificity/ Geometric specificity
• Substrate chemically identical with different arrangement of atoms in in 3D space
• Only one of the isomers undergo reaction by a particular enzyme

![Page 31: Enzyme Specificity Lecture 3. Objective To understand Specificity of enzymes](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061517/56649dd45503460f94acce54/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Trypsin acts only on polypeptide containing L-amino acids, not those containing of D-amino acidsEnzymes of glucose metabolism are specific for D-glucose
![Page 32: Enzyme Specificity Lecture 3. Objective To understand Specificity of enzymes](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061517/56649dd45503460f94acce54/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Yeast Alcohol Dehydrogenase (YADH) oxidises ethanol to aldehydesYADH acts on Methanol at 25 fold slowerYADH acts on Propanol 2.5 fold slowerNADPH (differ in a PO4 at 2’ from NADH) does not bind to YADH
![Page 33: Enzyme Specificity Lecture 3. Objective To understand Specificity of enzymes](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061517/56649dd45503460f94acce54/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
• Glycerol Kinase phosphorylates glycerol to Glycerol-3-P
• If phosphorylation occurs at C1, the product is D-glycerol -3-P
• If phosphorylation occurs at C3, the product is L-glycerol -3-P
• The enzyme always produces only L-isomer• Identical chemical groups in a substrate become
different after binding at the microenvironment of the active site of the enzyme (1948, A.G. Ogston)
![Page 34: Enzyme Specificity Lecture 3. Objective To understand Specificity of enzymes](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061517/56649dd45503460f94acce54/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Enzyme Binding Sites
• Active Site = Binding Site + Catalytic Site
• Regulatory Site: a second binding site, occupation of which by an effector or regulatory molecule, can affect the active site and thus alter the efficiency of catalysis – improve or inhibit
![Page 35: Enzyme Specificity Lecture 3. Objective To understand Specificity of enzymes](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061517/56649dd45503460f94acce54/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Identification and Characterization of Active
Site
• Structure: size, shape, charges, etc.
• Composition: identify amino acids involved in binding and catalysis.
