Kinetic rate constants and the equilibrium dissociation constant have been determined for the reaction between an affinity-purified class II major histocompatibility complex molecule IAk and a myelin basic protein analogue peptide, fluorescein-labeled Ac(1-14)A4C15. Under the experimental conditions used, the lifetime of the peptide-free IAk molecule with respect to inactivation is 3.1 hr. The equilibrium dissociation constant, 3.3 +/- 1.7 microM, is determined from measurements of the kinetics of peptide inhibition of IAk inactivation. The measured peptide dissociation halftime is relatively short, 30 min, and the deduced association rate is 100 M-1.s-1. The rate constants and the equilibrium constant are similar to those characteristic of kinetic intermediates in reactions of peptides and class II proteins that lead to long-lived terminal complexes.
已测定了亲和纯化的II类主要组织相容性复合体分子IAk与髓鞘碱性蛋白类似物肽(荧光素标记的Ac(1-14)A4C15)之间反应的动力学速率常数和平衡解离常数。在所使用的实验条件下,无肽IAk分子失活的半衰期为3.1小时。平衡解离常数为3.3±1.7微摩尔,通过测量肽对IAk失活的抑制动力学来确定。测得的肽解离半衰期相对较短,为30分钟,推导的缔合速率为100 M-1·s-1。这些速率常数和平衡常数与导致长寿命末端复合物的肽和II类蛋白质反应中动力学中间体的特征相似。
