[摘要]:Anthocyanidin reductase from Vitis vinifera catalyzes an NADPH-dependent double reduction of anthocyanidins. At pH 7.5 and 30 degrees C, steady-state kinetics support a hyperbolic and rapid-equilibrium ordered mechanism, with NADPH binding first, K-M(cyan) = 2.82 +/- 0.66 mu M and K-i(NADPH) = 111 +/- 23 mu M. The chromatographic method of Hummel and Dreyer was used for binding-equilibrium studies of NADPH, NADP(+) and catechin, at pH 7. This confirmed hyperbolic binding of NADPH and NADP(+) to the free enzyme, with a single binding site each and with dissociation constants K-NADPH = 45.9 +/- 2 mu M and KNADP+ = 83 +/- 5 mu M. There was no significant binding of catechin. We conclude (i) that the most likely mechanism is sequential ordered Bi Uni Uni Bi, with NADPH binding first and NADP(+) released last, and (ii) that internal conversion of the first ternary complex, i.e. that associated with the first hydride transfer, is rate-limiting.
