| Abstract | We compare the detailed binding modes of the 39-amino acid inhibitor from potatoes, glycyl-L-tyrosine, the ester analogue CH3OC6H4(CO)CH2CH(CO2(-))C6H5, and indole acetate to the exopeptidase carboxypeptidase A (EC 3.4.17.1). In the potato inhibitor, cleavage of the COOH-terminal glycine-39 leaves a new carboxylate anion of valine-38 having one oxygen on zinc and the other as a receptor of a hydrogen bond from tyrosine-248 of carboxypeptidase. Tyrosine-248 also receives a hydrogen bond from the amide proton of the originally penultimate peptide bond between tyrosine-37 and valine-38. This hydrogen bond suggests product stabilization which is available to peptides and depsipeptides but not to esters lacking an equivalent peptide bond (nonspecific esters). Also, this structure may represent the intermediate binding step for the uncleaved substrate as it moves along the binding subsites. In particular, this may be the binding mode for the substrate after association of the COOH-terminal region of the substrate with the residues at binding subsite S2 (tyrosine-198, phenylalanine-279, and arginine-71) and preceding entry into the catalytic site S1'. These stabilized complexes allow some understanding of the effect of indole acetate, shown here to bind in the pocket at S1', as a competitive inhibitor for esters (for which entry into S1' precedes the rate-determining catalytic step for hydrolysis) and as a noncompetitive inhibitor for peptides (for which entry into S1' is rate limiting). These results, including the binding mode of the ester analogue, are consistent with the original proposal from x-ray studies that both esters and peptides are cleaved with the carboxy terminus at S1', although not necessarily by the same chemical steps. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
