Abstract
Specific and reversible spin-labeling of trypsin (EC 3.4.21.4) active site was carried out by 'inverse substrate', 3-carboxy-2,2,5,5-tetramethyl-1-pyrrolidinyloxyl and 3-carboxy-2,2,5,5-tetramethyl-1-pyrrolinyloxyl-p-amidinophenyl esters. The paramagnetic resonance spectra of the labeled trypsin in the form of acyl enzyme intermediate were investigated. The 2T value, separation of the outer hyperfine extrema, was observed to be sensitive to pH of the medium. These results are discussed in terms of pH-dependent conformational change at the vicinity of active site.
