  • Title: Multiple isotope effects as a probe of proton and hydride transfer in the 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase reaction.
    Author: Hwang CC, Cook PF.
    Journal: Biochemistry; 1998 Nov 10; 37(45):15698-702. PubMed ID: 9843374.
    Abstract:
    Primary solvent deuterium, primary substrate deuterium, multiple solvent deuterium/substrate deuterium, and multiple solvent deuterium/13C isotope effects on V/K6PG have been measured for the Candida utilis and sheep liver 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenases (6PGDH). Proton inventory data suggest the presence of a significant medium effect in a step preceding hydride transfer and the presence of a kinetic solvent deuterium isotope effect on hydride transfer. Multiple isotope effect data confirm the presence of multiple solvent deuterium sensitive steps, likely including a conformational change preceding hydride transfer, hydride transfer, and decarboxylation.
