Abstract
Understanding of the stereospecificity of enzymatic reactions that regenerate the universal chromophore required to sustain vision in vertebrates, 11-cis-retinal, is needed for an accurate molecular model of retinoid transformations. In rod outer segments (ROS), the redox reaction involves all-trans-retinal and pro-S-NADPH that results in the production of pro-R-all-trans-retinol. A recently identified all-trans-retinol dehydrogenase (photoreceptor retinol dehydrogenase) displays identical stereospecificity to that of the ROS enzyme(s). This result is unusual, because photoreceptor retinol dehydrogenase is a member of a short chain alcohol dehydrogenase family, which is often pro-S-specific toward their hydrophobic alcohol substrates. The second redox reaction occurring in retinal pigment epithelium, oxidation of 11-cis-retinol, which is largely catalyzed by abundantly expressed 11-cis-retinol dehydrogenase, is pro-S-specific to both 11-cis-retinol and NADH. However, there is notable presence of pro-R-specific activities. Therefore, multiple retinol dehydrogenases are involved in regeneration of 11-cis-retinal. Finally, the cellular retinaldehyde-binding protein-induced isomerization of all-trans-retinol to 11-cis-retinol proceeds with inversion of configuration at the C(15) carbon of retinol. Together, these results provide important additions to our understanding of retinoid transformations in the eye and a prelude for in vivo studies that ultimately may result in efficient pharmacological intervention to restore and prevent deterioration of vision in several inherited eye diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) is the first enzyme of the pentose phosphate pathway. Normally the pathway is synthetic and NADP-dependent, but the Gram-positive bacterium Leuconostoc mesenteroides, which does not have a complete glycolytic pathway, also uses the oxidative enzymes of the pentose phosphate pathway for catabolic reactions, and selects either NAD or NADP depending on the demands for catabolic or anabolic metabolism. RESULTS The structure of G6PD has been determined and refined to 2.0 A resolution. The enzyme is a dimer, each subunit consisting of two domains. The smaller domain is a classic dinucleotide-binding fold, while the larger one is a new beta+ alpha fold, not previously seen, with a predominantly antiparallel nine-stranded beta-sheet. There are significant structural differences in the coenzyme-binding domains of the two subunits, caused by Pro 149 which is cis in one subunit and trans in the other. CONCLUSIONS The structure has allowed us to propose the location of the active site and the coenzyme-binding site, and suggests the role of many of the residues conserved between species. We propose that the conserved Arg46 would interact with both the adenine ring and the 2'-phosphate of NADP. Gln47, which is not conserved, may contribute to the change from NADP to dual coenzyme specificity. His178, in a nine-residue peptide conserved for all known sequences, binds a phosphate in the active site pocket. His240 is the most likely candidate for the base to oxidize the 1-hydroxyl group of the glucose 6-phosphate substrate.

Abstract
The structure of a peptide analog of the inhibitory region of cardiac troponin-I (N-acetyl-G110-TnI(104-115) amide) when bound to cardiac troponin-C has been determined by 2-dimensional 1H-NMR techniques. The bound structure determined for this peptide is similar to that determined previously for the skeletal peptide (which has a proline at position 110) bound to skeletal troponin-C (Campbell and Sykes (1991) J. Mol. Biol. 222, 405-421). This structure shows a helical like peptide backbone 'bent' around P109-G110 to bring the hydrophobic residues F106, L111 and V114 closer together. The other 'side' of this structure is surrounded by the basic residues extending outwards towards the protein or solution. While the bound structures of the cardiac and skeletal peptides are shown to be quite similar, the cardiac peptide appears more flexible near the central glycine residue.

Abstract
The structure of a binary complex of dihydropteridine reductase [DHPR; NAD(P)H:6,7-dihydropteridine oxidoreductase, EC 1.6.99.7] with its cofactor, NADH, has been solved and refined to a final R factor of 15.4% by using 2.3 A diffraction data. DHPR is an alpha/beta protein with a Rossmann-type dinucleotide fold for NADH binding. Insertion of an extra threonine residue in the human enzyme is associated with severe symptoms of a variant form of phenylketonuria and maps to a tightly linked sequence of secondary-structural elements near the dimer interface. Dimerization is mediated by a four-helix bundle motif (two helices from each protomer) having an unusual right-handed twist. DHPR is structurally and mechanistically distinct from dihydrofolate reductase, appearing to more closely resemble certain nicotinamide dinucleotide-requiring flavin-dependent enzymes, such as glutathione reductase.

Abstract
The dynamic equilibrium of a catalytic site between active and inactive conformations, the missing link between the structure and function of allosteric enzymes, was identified using protein engineering and NMR techniques. Kinetic analyses of the wild-type and three mutants of Thermus L-lactate dehydrogenase established that the allosteric property of the enzyme is associated with a concerted transition between the high-affinity (R) and low-affinity (T) states. By introducing mutations, we prepared an enzyme in which the R and T states were balanced. The conformation of the enzyme-bound coenzyme, NAD+, which interacts directly with the substrate, was analyzed using NMR spectroscopy. NAD+ bound to the mutant enzyme was in a conformational mixture of the active and inactive forms, while NAD+ took on predominantly one of the two forms when it was bound to the other enzymes we had analyzed. We interpret this to mean that the catalytic site is in equilibrium between the two conformations. The ratio of the conformers of each enzyme agreed with the [T]/[R] ratio as determined by kinetic analyses. Therefore, it is the identified conformational equilibrium of the catalytic site that governs the allosteric regulation of the enzyme activity.

Abstract
We have used two-dimensional 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy to determine the structure of the synthetic inhibitory peptide N alpha-acetyl TnI(104-115) amide bound to calcium-saturated skeletal troponin C (TnC). Conformational changes in the peptide induced by the formation of the troponin I (TnI) peptide-TnC complex were followed by the study of the transferred nuclear Overhauser effect, a technique that allows one to determine the structure of a ligand bound to a macromolecule. The structure of the bound TnI peptide reveals an amphiphilic alpha-helix, distorted around the two central proline residues. The central bend in the peptide functions to bring the residues on the hydrophobic face into closer proximity with each other, thereby forming a small hydrophobic pocket. The hydrophilic, basic residues extend off the opposite face of the peptide. Hydrophobic surfaces on TnC that become exposed upon binding of calcium are involved in the binding of the TnI peptide, but electrostatic interactions also contribute to the strength of the interaction. The role of amphiphilic helices in the targeting of calcium-binding proteins such as troponin C will be discussed.

Abstract
Transferred nuclear Overhauser enhancement spectroscopy (TRNOE) was used to observe changes in a ligand's conformation upon binding to its specific antibody. The ligands studied were methyl O-beta-D-galactopyranosyl(1----6)-4-deoxy-4-fluoro-beta-D-galactopyra nos ide (me4FGal2) and its selectively deuteriated analogue, methyl O-beta-D-galactopyranosyl(1----6)-4-deoxy-2-deuterio-4-fluoro-beta -D- galactopyranoside (me4F2dGal2). The monoclonal antibody was mouse IgA X24. The solution conformation of the free ligand me4F2dGal2 was inferred from measurements of vicinal 1H-1H coupling constants, long-range 1H-13C coupling constants, and NOE cross-peak intensities. For free ligand, both galactosyl residues adopt a regular chair conformation, but the NMR spectra are incompatible with a single unique conformation of the glycosidic linkage. Analysis of 1H-1H and 1H-13C constants indicates that the major conformer has an extended conformation: phi = -120 degrees; psi = 180 degrees; and omega = 75 degrees. TRNOE measurements on me4FGal2 and me4F2dGal2 in the presence of the specific antibody indicate that the pyranose ring pucker of each galactose ring remains unchanged, but rotations about the glycosidic linkage occur upon binding to X24. Computer calculations indicate that there are two sets of torsion angles that satisfy the observed NMR constraints, namely, phi = -152 +/- 9 degrees; psi = -128 +/- 7 degrees; and omega = -158 +/- 6 degrees; and a conformer with phi = -53 +/- 6 degrees; psi = 154 +/- 10 degrees; and omega = -173 +/- 6 degrees. Neither conformation is similar to any of the observed conformations of the free disaccharide.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
NAD(+)-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase from pig heart is an allosteric enzyme that is activated by ADP and is inhibited by NADPH in the presence of NADH. Transferred nuclear Overhauser effect measurements, made at a range of times to ensure that observed effects are due to direct dipole-dipole transfer and not to spin diffusion, were used to determine the conformations of pyridine nucleotide coenzymes and of the allosteric effector ADP. For NAD+, significant effects were observed on the N2 proton (on the nicotinamide ring) when the N1' proton (on the nicotinamide ribose) was saturated and on the N6 proton when the N2' proton was saturated, indicating that the conformation of the nicotinamide-ribose moiety is anti. The anti conformation is expected because of the stereospecificity of NAD(+)-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase and is the same as for NADP(+)-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase. For the adenosine moiety of NAD+, the predominant nuclear Overhauser effect on the A8 proton is found when the A2' proton is saturated. This result implies that the adenine-ribose bond is anti with respect to the ribose. Previous kinetic and binding studies of ADP activation have shown an influence of divalent metal ions. The conformation of bound ADP, in the presence of Mg2+ and/or Ca2+, is found to be anti about the adenine-ribose bond. The 3'H-8H distance increases when Ca2+ is added to the Mg-ADP-enzyme complex. Changes in the 4'H-1'H distance upon addition of isocitrate are indicative of interactions between the ADP activator site and the isocitrate site.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The isotope effect on binding [4-2H]NAD+ and [4-3H]NAD+ to lactate dehydrogenase has been shown to be 1.10 +/- 0.03 by whole molecule isotope ratio mass spectrometry and 1.085 +/- 0.01 by 3H/14C scintillation counting. These values demonstrate that specific interactions of the nicotinamide ring with the enzyme make the C-H bond at C-4 less stiff in the binary complex.

Abstract
The oxidized coenzyme NAD binds to two sites per subunit of bovine liver glutamate dehydrogenase with equal affinity in the absence of dicarboxylic acid coligands. In the presence of glutarate or 2-oxoglutarate, the affinity to one site is unchanged, but the affinity to the other (presumed to be the active site) is considerably increased and now requires two dissociation constants to describe its saturation. A combination of transfer nuclear Overhauser effects (TRNOE) together with an examination of the slopes of TRNOE time dependence indicates that while NAD is bound in a syn conformation at both binding sites, NADP (which binds only to the active site) is bound in a syn-anti mixture. The existence of N6 to N3' and N6 and N2' and N1' to N3' NOE's with NAD suggests that the two coenzyme binding sites are located near enough to allow intermolecular NOE's. In the presence of 2-oxoglutarate where only binding to the active site is effectively observed, the conformation of either coenzyme is syn. Modeling studies using the distance estimates from the TRNOE results suggest that the nicotinamide ribose approximates a 3'-endo conformation. The absence of evidence for intermolecular NOE's under these conditions indicates that while the active and regulatory NAD sites per subunit are in close proximity, the six active sites per hexamer are located greater than 5 A apart.

Abstract
Nuclear Overhauser effects were used to determine interproton distances on MgATP bound to rabbit muscle creatine kinase. The internuclear distances were used in a distance geometry program that objectively determines both the conformation of the bound MgATP and its uniqueness. Two classes of structures were found that satisfied the measured interproton distances. Both classes had the same anti glycosidic torsional angle (chi = 78 +/- 10 degrees) but differed in their ribose ring puckers (O1'-endo or C4'-exo). The uniqueness of the glycosidic torsional angle is consistent with the preference of creatine kinase for adenine nucleotides. One of these conformations of MgATP bound to creatine kinase is indistinguishable from the conformation found for Co(NH3)4ATP bound to the catalytic subunit of protein kinase, which also has a high specificity for adenine nucleotides [chi = 78 +/- 10 degrees, O1'-endo; Rosevear, P.R., Bramson, H.N., O'Brian, C., Kaiser, E.T., & Mildvan, A.S. (1983) Biochemistry 22, 3439]. Distance geometry calculations also suggest that upper limit distances, when low enough (less than or equal to 3.4 A), can be used instead of measured distances to define, within experimental error, the glycosidic torsional angle of bound nucleotides. However, this approach does not permit an evaluation of the ribose ring pucker.

Abstract
500 MHz H, homonuclear, intra-molecular, transferred Nuclear Overhauser Effect measurements have been performed on the bound forms of a classical opiate antagonist, nalorphine and an agonist, levorphanol at their respective binding sites in two different specific anti-opiate monoclonal antibody fragments. Based upon previous studies of opiate conformations in solution the results clearly show without extensive interpretation that one of these flexible haptens has the opposite (from solution) isomeric conformation in its bound form. For nalorphine the axial isomer of the N-allyl substituent is the bound form whereas in solution the equatorial isomer dominates at a ratio of 5:1. For levorphanol the bound form is that of equatorial N-methyl in accord with the low energy conformation in solution. In this preliminary report we discuss the initial measurements and results and their implications with respect to the conformations of flexible ligands at macromolecular binding sites including opiate receptors.

Abstract
The binding of coenzymes, NADP+ and NADPH, and coenzyme fragments, 2'-phosphoadenosine 5'-(diphosphoribose), adenosine 2',5'-bisphosphate, and 2'-AMP, to pig heart NADP+-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase has been studied by proton NMR. Transferred nuclear Overhauser enhancement (NOE) between the nicotinamide 1'-ribose proton and the 2-nicotinamide ring proton indicates that the nicotinamide-ribose bond assumes an anti conformation. For all nucleotides, a nuclear Overhauser effect between the adenine 1'-ribose proton and 8-adenine ring proton is observed, suggesting a predominantly syn adenine--ribose bond conformation for the enzyme-bound nucleotides. Transferred NOE between the protons at A2 and N6 is observed for NADPH (but not NADP+), implying proximity between adenine and nicotinamide rings in a folded enzyme-bound form of NADPH. Line-width measurements on the resonances of free nucleotides exchanging with bound species indicate dissociation rates ranging from less than 7 s-1 for NADPH to approximately 1600 s-1 for adenosine 2',5'-bisphosphate. Substrate, magnesium isocitrate, increases the dissociation rate for NADPH about 10-fold but decreases the corresponding rate for phosphoadenosine diphosphoribose and adenosine 2',5'-bisphosphate about 10-fold. These effects are consistent with changes in equilibrium dissociation constants measured under similar conditions. The 1H NMR spectrum of isocitrate dehydrogenase at pH 7.5 has three narrow peaks between delta 7.85 and 7.69 that shift with changes in pH and hence arise from C-4 protons of histidines. One of those, with pK = 5.35, is perturbed by NADP+ and NADPH but not by nucleotide fragments, indicating that this histidine is in the region of the nicotinamide binding site. Observation of nuclear Overhauser effects arising from selective irradiation at delta 7.55 indicates proximity of either a nontitrating histidine or an aromatic residue to the adenine ring of all nucleotides. In addition, selective irradiation of the methyl region of the enzyme spectrum demonstrates that the adenine ring is close to methyl side chains. The substrate magnesium isocitrate produces no observable differences in these protein--nucleotide interactions. The alterations in enzyme--nucleotide conformation that result in changes in affinity in the presence of substrate must involve either small shifts in the positions of amino acid side chains or changes in groups not visible in the proton NMR spectrum.

Abstract
Coenzymic activities of the following NADP derivatives were investigated: 2'-O-(2-carboxyethyl)phosphono-NAD (I), N6-(2-carboxyethyl)-NADP (II), 2'-O-(2-carboxyethyl)phosphono-N6-(2-carboxyethyl)-NAD (III), 2'-O-[N-(2-aminoethyl)carbamoylethyl]phosphono-NAD (IV), N6-[N-(2-aminoethyl)carbamoylethyl]-NADP (Va), 2',3'-cyclic NADP, and 3'-NADP. Derivatives I and IV show the effects of modification at the 2'-phosphate group, and derivatives II and Va show those at the 6-amino group of NADP. As for enzymes, alcohol, isocitrate, 6-phosphogluconate, glucose, glucose-6-phosphate, and glutamate dehydrogenases were used. These enzymes were grouped on the basis of the ratio of the activities for NAD and NADP into NADP-specific enzymes (ratio less than 0.01), NAD(P)-specific enzymes (0.01 less than ratio less than 100), and NAD-specific enzymes (ratio greater than 100). For NADP-specific enzymes, modifications at the 2'-phosphate group of NADP caused great loss of cofactor activity. The relative cofactor activities (NADP = 100%) of derivatives I and IV for these enzymes were 0.5-20 and 0.01-0.5%, respectively. On the other hand, NAD(P)-specific enzymes showed several types of responses to the NADP derivatives. The relative cofactor activities of I and IV for Leuconostoc mesenteroides and Bacillus stearothermophilus glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenases and beef liver glutamate dehydrogenase were 60-200%; whereas, for B. megaterium glucose dehydrogenase and L. mesenteroides alcohol dehydrogenase, the values were 0.8-8%. For NAD-specific enzymes, these values were 20-50%. The relative cofactor activities of 2',3'-cyclic NADP and 3'-NADP were very low (less than 0.2%) except for beef liver glutamate dehydrogenase, B. stearothermophilus glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, and horse liver alcohol dehydrogenase. Kinetic studies showed that the losses of the cofactor activity of NADP by these modifications were mainly due to the increase of the Km value. The mechanisms of coenzyme specificity of dehydrogenases are discussed. Unlike the 2'-phosphate group, the 6-amino group is common to NAD and NADP, and the effects of modification at the 6-amino group were independent of the coenzyme specificity of enzymes used for the assay. Derivatives II and Va had high relative cofactor activities (65-130%) for most of the enzymes except for isocitrate and glucose dehydrogenases (less than 1%) and L. mesenteroides alcohol dehydrogenase (20-60%). The cofactor activity of derivative III was generally lower than those of I and II.

Abstract
The pyridine nucleotide (NAD and NADP)-linked enzymes are a large class of enzymes constituting approximately 17% of all classified enzymes. When these enzymes catalyze their reactions, the hydride transfer between the substrate and the reaction site (i.e., C-4 of the nicotinamide/dihydronicotinamide ring) of the coenzyme takes place in a stereospecific manner. Thus, in the reaction of oxidation of the reduced coenzyme, one group of enzymes catalyzes the extraction of only the hydrogen having the R configuration at the No. 4 carbon, while the other group catalyzes the removal of only that with the S configuration. Because this aspect of enzyme stereospecificity provides essential information for a given enzyme's reaction mechanism, active site structure, and evolutionary relationship with other enzymes, intensive effort has been made to establish the stereospecificities of as many enzymes as possible. This review presents the compilation of the stereospecificities of these enzymes. Some empirical rules, which are useful but not definitive, in predicting a given enzyme's stereospecificity are also described. In addition, the stereospecificity in enzymatic reactions is compared to the stereo-preference in chemical oxidoreduction of the coenzyme. In order to elucidate the mechanism for the enzyme stereospecificity, the conformations of the coenzyme in free-state and enzyme-bound state are extensively discussed here.

Abstract
The conformation of NADP+ in glucose-6-phosphate-dehydrogenase--NADP+ binary complexes has been investigated using proton-proton transferred nuclear Overhauser enhancement measurements to determine interproton distance ratios between bound NADP+ protons. The enzymes from Saccharomyces cerevisiae (brewer's yeast and baker's yeast) and Hansenula jadinii (Candida utilis, Torula utilis) form binary complexes with NADP+ in which the glycosidic bond of the adenine moiety is in the anti conformation whereas that of the nicotinamide moiety exists as a syn (69-70%)/anti (30-40%) mixture. The enzymes have similar subunit sizes (Mr approximately 58 000) and it is shown that they bind NADP+ in essentially similar conformations. Inactivation of the baker's yeast enzyme with acetylsalicylic acid caused little if any alteration in the conformation of bound NADP+, and the presence of NADP+ during inactivation afforded very little protection to the enzyme. Inactivation rates were, however, lower in the presence of glucose 6-phosphate. It is concluded that the epsilon-amino group of the lysine residue that is acetylated during the inactivation reaction with acetylsalicylic acid is not necessary for binary complex formation between the enzyme and NADP+, but that it is situated in a part of the molecule affected by formation of the enzyme--glucose-6-phosphate complex. The implication of the findings for the catalytic process, and related evolutionary aspects, are discussed briefly.
