    Abstract:
    The allosteric effect of fructose 1,6-bisphosphate (Fru-1,6-P2) on L-lactate dehydrogenase (L-lactate:NAD+ oxidoreductase, EC 1.1.1.27) from Thermus caldophilus GK24 was studied by means of 1H NMR analyses. The conformation of NAD+ as bound to the T. caldophilus enzyme was elucidated by analyses of the transferred nuclear Overhauser effects (TRNOE), in the presence and the absence of the allosteric effector, Fru-1,6-P2. Upon binding of Fru-1,6-P2 to the enzyme, the ribose ring of the adenosine moiety of NAD+ is converted from the C2'-endo form to the C3'-endo form. This C3'-endo form of the adenosine moiety is similar to that of NAD+ as bound to nonallosteric vertebrate enzymes. However, the anti conformation of the adenine-ribose bond of NAD+ as bound to the T. caldophilus enzyme is not affected by the binding of Fru-1,6-P2. In contrast, the syn conformation of the nicotinamide-ribose bond is converted to the anti form on the binding of Fru-1,6-P2, while the ribose ring remains in the C3'-endo form as found in the case of a nonallosteric enzyme. Such a conformational change of enzyme-bound NAD+ as found on TRNOE analysis is essentially involved in the allosteric regulation of the T. caldophilus enzyme by Fru-1,6-P2.
