The syntheses of 6,7-dihydrogeraniol and of its pyrophosphate are described. It is shown that this analogue of geranyl pyrophosphate is a substrate for liver prenyltransferase and that the product synthesized by this enzyme from it and isopentenyl pyrophosphate is 10,11-dihydrofarnesyl pyrophosphate. The K(m) value for 6,7-dihydrogeranyl pyrophosphate was determined to be 1.11+/-0.19mum as compared with 4.34+/-1.71mum for geranyl pyrophosphate. The maximum reaction velocity with the artifical substrate was, however, only about one-fourth of that observed with geranyl pyrophosphate. The binding of isopentenyl pyrophosphate to the enzyme was not affected by the artificial substrate.
本文描述了6,7-二氢香叶醇及其焦磷酸酯的合成。结果表明,这种香叶基焦磷酸酯类似物是肝脏异戊烯基转移酶的底物,该酶由其与异戊烯基焦磷酸合成的产物是10,11-二氢法呢基焦磷酸。6,7-二氢香叶基焦磷酸的K(m)值测定为1.11±0.19μm,而香叶基焦磷酸的K(m)值为4.34±1.71μm。然而,与香叶基焦磷酸相比,人工底物的最大反应速度仅为其约四分之一。异戊烯基焦磷酸与该酶的结合不受人工底物的影响。
