The possible role of the hydroxyl group of Tyr 108 in the catalytic, mechanism of human glutathione transferase P1-1 has been investigated by, means of site-directed mutagenesis, steady-state kinetic analysis, and, crystallographic studies. Three representative cosubstrates have been, used, i.e. ethacrynic acid, 7-chloro-4-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazole, and, 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene. In the presence of ethacrynic acid, the, enzyme follows a rapid equilibrium random bi-bi mechanism with a, rate-limiting step which occurs after the addition of the substrates and, before the release of products. The replacement of Tyr 108 with Phe yields, a 14-fold decrease of k(cat), while it does not change appreciably the, affinity of the H site for the substrate. In this case, it would appear, that the role of the hydroxyl function is to stabilize the transition, state for the chemical step, i.e. the Michael addition of GSH to the, electrophilic substrate. Crystallographic data are compatible with this, conclusion showing the hydroxyl group of Y108 in hydrogen bonding distance, of the ketone moiety of ethacrynic acid [Oakley, A. J., Rossjohn, J., Lo, Bello, M., Caccuri, A. M., Federici, G., & Parker, M. W. (1997), Biochemistry 36, 576-585]. Moreover, no structural differences are, observed between the Y108F mutant and the wild type, suggesting that the, removal of the hydroxyl group is solely responsible for the loss of, activity. A different involvement of Tyr 108 appears in the catalyzed, conjugation of 7-chloro-4-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazole with GSH in which, the rate-limiting step is of a physical nature, probably a structural, transition of the ternary complex. The substitution of Tyr 108 yields an, approximately 7-fold increase of k(cat) and a constant k(cat)/Km(NBD-Cl), value. Lack of a critical hydrogen bond between, 7-chloro-4-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazole and Tyr 108 appears to be the basis, of the increased k(cat). In the 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene/GSH system, no, appreciable changes of kinetics parameters are found in the Y108F mutant., We conclude that Y108 has a multifunctional role in glutathione, transferase P1-1 catalysis, depending on the nature of the electrophilic, cosubstrate.
