Two laboratory mutants of NDM-1 were generated by replacing the isoleucine at position 35 with threonine and serine residues: the NDM-1(I35T)and NDM-1(I35S)enzymes. These mutants were well characterized, and their kinetic parameters were compared with those of the NDM-1 wild type. Thekcat,Km, andkcat/Kmvalues calculated for the two mutants were slightly different from those of the wild-type enzyme. Interestingly, thekcat/Kmof NDM-1(I35S)for loracarbef was about 14-fold higher than that of NDM-1. Far-UV circular dichroism (CD) spectra of NDM-1 and NDM-1(I35T)and NDM-1(I35S)enzymes suggest local structural rearrangements in the secondary structure with a marked reduction of α-helix content in the mutants.
通过将35位的异亮氨酸替换为苏氨酸和丝氨酸残基,生成了两种NDM-1实验室突变体:NDM-1(I35T)和NDM-1(I35S)酶。对这些突变体进行了充分表征,并将其动力学参数与NDM-1野生型的参数进行了比较。计算得出的两种突变体的kcat、Km和kcat/Km值与野生型酶的这些值略有不同。有趣的是,NDM-1(I35S)对氯碳头孢的kcat/Km比NDM-1高约14倍。NDM-1、NDM-1(I35T)和NDM-1(I35S)酶的远紫外圆二色(CD)光谱表明二级结构发生了局部结构重排,突变体中的α-螺旋含量显著降低。
