Fig. 5. Deconvoluted absorbance spectra from the reductive half-reaction of 20 mM MR mixed with 50 mM NADH at 10°C. The spectra were deconvoluted in an irreversible two-step reaction (a®b®c). (A and B) Spectra for the fully-oxidized enzyme (A) and the CT complex (B) are shown versus pressure. (C) The reduced enzyme is essentially colorless and not shown. The first derivative spectra (de/dl) are also shown (´10 and baseline offset) to illustrate that there is absolutely no detectable shift in the spectra of either A or B with pressure. (C) Absorption spectra of MR in the absence (native) and presence of 10 M urea (denatured) showing the ≈15-nm shift of the 464-nm peak upon denaturation of the enzyme. (D) The pressure dependence of the magnitude of the charge-transfer absorbance at 552 nm. These values are the average of four separate experiments and have been normalized. e is the molar extinction coefficient.
Fig. 6. The dependence of the observed rate for the reductive half-reaction of MR on NADH concentration at 10°C and 40°C. The apparent Kd values at 1 bar, 1 kbar, and 2 kbar were determined by fitting the data to kobs = kmax [NADH]/(Kd [NADH])
Fig. 7. The effect of temperature on DV for the reductive half-reaction of MR with saturating NADH (black) and NAD2H (red). The difference in DV is shown in blue below. The solid lines are linear fits and the dotted black line through the DDV data are a fit omitting the data point at 40°C (313 K).
Fig. 8. The effect of pressure on the enthalpy (DH) (Top) and entropy (DS) (Middle) of the reductive half-reaction of MR with saturating NADH (black) and NAD2H (red). The difference in DH and DS between the reaction with NAD2H and NADH are shown in blue. (Bottom) The lnA' values and prefactor ratio (A'H :A'D, blue) are shown.
Fig. 9. Additional numerical modeling. (A) The effect of r0 on the harmonic oscillator force constant required for KIE = 4.0. (B) The apparent difference in enthalpy when the KIE = 4.0. (C) The frequency of gating for a range of gating unit masses (atomic mass units) when the difference in enthalphy (DDH) is fixed to 5.2 kJ·mol-1. (D) The Eyring prefactor ratio when the difference in enthalpy (DDH) is fixed to 5.2 kJ·mol-1.
