Abstract:

Molecular dynamics simulation and mutation were used to get the influence at activity and kinetics of enzyme catalyzed reaction by L-Val on W-Arginase Ι and R-Arginase Ι. There is a big cavity C2 near the activity pocket of Arginase Ι. The result of molecular dynamics simulation shows that the mutation of Ile156Arg narrows the cavity volume of C2. The experimental result shows that influenced by L-Val the half maximal inhibitory concentration(IC50) of R-Arginase Ι has been risen obviously, the IC50 by 3.06 mmol/L rises to 6.26 mmol/L. Therefore, Arginase Ι does exist a regulatory site in C2 and L-Val can combine on this site to disturb the activity of Arginase Ι.

Key words: Arginase Ι, Molecular dynamics simulation, Mutation, Half maximal inhibitory concentration(IC50), Regulatory site, L-Val
