Synthesis of aryl azide derivatives of UDP-GlcNAc and UDP-GalNAc and their use for the affinity labeling of glycosyltransferases and the UDP-HexNAc pyrophosphorylase.

The chemical synthesis and utilization of two photoaffinity analogs, 125I-labeled 5-[3-(p-azidosalicylamido)-1-propenyl]-UDP-GlcNAc and -UDP-GalNAc, is described. Starting with either UDP-GlcNAc or UDP-GalNAc, the synthesis involved the preparation of the 5-mercuri-UDP-HexNAc and then attachment of an allylamine to the 5 position to give 5-(3-amino)allyl-UDP-HexNAc. This was followed by acylation with N-hydroxysuccinimide p-aminosalicylic acid to form the final product, i.e., 5-[3-(p-azidosalicylamido)-1-propenyl]-UDP-GlcNAc or UDP-GalNAc. These products could then be iodinated with chloramine T to give the 125I-derivatives. Both the UDP-GlcNAc and the UDP-GalNAc derivatives reacted in a concentration-dependent manner with a highly purified UDP-HexNAc pyrophosphorylase, and both specifically labeled the subunit(s) of this protein. The labeling of the protein by the UDP-GlcNAc derivative was inhibited in dose-dependent fashion by either unlabeled UDP-GlcNAc or unlabeled UDP-GalNAc. Likewise, labeling with the UDP-GalNAc probe was blocked by either UDP-GlcNAc or UDP-GalNAc. The UDP-GlcNAc probe also specifically labeled a partially purified preparation of GlcNAc transferase I.

About the specificity of photoinduced affinity labeling of Escherichia coli ribosomes by dihydrorosaramicin, a macrolide related to erythromycin.

Photoactivation of the [3H]dihydrorosaramicin chromophore at a wavelength above 300 nm allows the covalent attachment of the macrolide antibiotic to the bacterial ribosome. Bidimensional electrophoresis shows that the radioactivity is mainly associated with proteins L1, L5, L6, L15, L18, L19, S1, S3, S4, S5 and S9. When photoincorporation of the drug is conducted in the presence of puromycin as effector of [3H]dihydrorosaramicin-binding sites, a decrease in the labeling of most proteins is observed, except for L18 and L19, which are radiolabeled to a larger extent. These results allow us to speculate that L18 and L19 belong to the high-affinity binding site of rosaramicin antibiotic.

Affinity labeling of the (Na+ + Mg2+)-ATPase from Acholeplasma laidlawii B membranes by the 2',3'-dialdehyde derivative of adenosine 5'-triphosphate.

The (Na+ + Mg2+)-ATPase of the Acholeplasma laidlawii B plasma membrane was inactivated by the 2',3'-dialdehyde derivative of ATP (oATP). oATP behaved as a reversible competitive inhibitor of this ATPase and was slowly hydrolyzed by the enzyme. In addition, oATP induced an irreversible inactivation of the enzyme. A 62% inactivation of the enzyme correlated with the binding of 16 moles of oATP per mole of the enzyme. In the presence of 5'-adenylyl imidodiphosphate, a non-hydrolyzable substrate analogue, the stoichiometry was 8 moles oATP per mole of ATPase. By SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, [U-14C]oATP was found to bind covalently to four of the five subunits of the enzyme, but specific labeling was highest for the gamma-subunit of the ATPase.

Triazine dyes, a new class of affinity labels for nucleotide-dependent enzymes.

A number of reactive dichlorotriazine dyes specifically and irreversibly inactivate pig heart lactate dehydrogenase, yeast glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase and yeast hexokinase at sites competitive with NAD+, NADP+, and ATP respectively. Monochlorotriazine dyes, including Cibacron Blue F3G-A, do not inactivate lactate dehydrogenase but display high affinity and thus inhibit the inactivation by dichlorotriazine dyes. These data are interpreted in terms of the ability of nucleotide-binding enzymes to bind polysulphonated aromatic chromophores.

Dual affinity labeling of the active site of human lysozyme with an N-acetyllactosamine derivative: first ligand assisted recognition of the second ligand.

Among the three kinds of the 2',3'-epoxypropyl beta-glycoside of disaccharides (GlcNAc-beta1,4-GlcNAc, Gal-beta1,4-GlcNAc, and Man-beta1,4-GlcNAc), the derivative of N-acetyllactosamine (Gal-beta1,4-GlcNAc-Epo) caused the dual labeling of human lysozyme (HL) most efficiently. The labeled HL was crystallized and analyzed by X-ray diffraction methodology. The X-ray analysis located the two Gal-beta1,4-GlcNAc-Epo moieties inside the catalytic cleft of HL. The attachment sites were the side-chain carboxylate groups of the catalytic residues Glu35 and Asp53 in HL. The first Gal-beta1, 4-GlcNAc-Epo moiety occupied virtually the same position as observed in the HL labeled with single Gal-beta1,4-GlcNAc-Epo molecule. The second Gal-beta1,4-GlcNAc-Epo moiety was recognized via the carbohydrate-carbohydrate interaction with the first Gal-beta1, 4-GlcNAc-Epo moiety in addition to the protein-carbohydrate interaction with the "right-side" catalytic cleft of HL through a number of hydrogen bonds including water-mediated ones as well as many van der Waals contacts. The two N-acetylglucosamine residues stacked with each other, while the two rings of galactose residues approximately shared the same plane. The dual labeling with two Gal-beta1,4-GlcNAc-Epo molecules was supposed to have occurred sequentially, which was accompanied with the alteration to the pKa of Glu35 derived from the esterification of Asp53 in the first labeling. Both asymmetric carbons in the connection parts between HL and N-acetyllactosamine moieties showed the same stereoconfiguration derived from the reaction with (2'R) stereoisomer concerning the epoxide group in the labeling reagent. The results demonstrated that the HL labeled with single Gal-beta1,4-GlcNAc-Epo was functional as a novel N-acetyllactosamine-binding protein, and the second labeling was performed by way of the first-ligand assisted recognition of the second ligand.

Arginyl-tRNA synthetase from Escherichia coli affinity labeling with 3'-oxidized tRNA(Arg).

The covalent modification of E. coli arginyl-tRNA synthetase by the 2',3'-dialdehyde derivative of tRNA(Arg) (tRNA(oxArg)) resulted in the complete inactivation of the ATP-PPi exchange and aminoacylation activities of the enzyme. Sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the ArgRS-tRNA(oxArg) covalent complexes indicated that two bands simultaneously appeared on the gel parallel with inactivation corresponding to different higher molecular weights. This result was different from that of the other aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase labeling systems as previously reported. Upon the ribonuclease treatment of the modified ArgRS, less than 15% of both the initial ATP-PPi exchange and aminocylation activities were recovered. During the whole process of labeling and RNase treatment, the two activities of the enzyme were closely associated.

Detection of an essential sulfhydryl group in phosphoglycerate mutase with an affinity-labeling reagent.

N-Bromoacetylethanolamine phosphate rapidly and irreversibly inactivates rabbit muscle phosphoglycerate mutase. At high molar ratios of reagent to enzyme, loss of activity (both mutase and phosphatase) approximates pseudo-first order kinetics. A rate-saturation effect is observed with half-maximal rate of inactivation occurring at 0.32 mM reagent, a value close to the Km for 3-phosphoglyceric acid. This datum and the dissociation constant of the 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate-enzyme complex, as determined from inactivation kinetics in the presence of the bisphosphate, suggest that the reagent reacts at the substrate binding site. Inactivation results from the covalent incorporation of about 0.8 mol of reagent/mol of catalytic subunit as determined with 14C-labeled reagent. Incorporation is negligible in the presence of substrate and is reduced 8-fold in the presence of 6 M urea. From amino acid analyses on acid hydrolysates of the inactivated enzyme, we have identified a sulfhydryl group as the site of alkylation. A peptide containing the essential sulfhydryl group has been isolated from a tryptic digest of the enzyme inactivated with labeled reagent; its amino acid composition is Trp1, Lys1,-Cys(Cm)1, Asp1, Ser1, Glu2, Gly1, Ala1, Leu1, Phe2.
