The inactivation of the aspartokinase I-
homoserine dehydrogenase
I by
iodoacetic acid
and the effect on the sensitivity to its inhibitor, L-threonine, were examined. Both aspartokinase and
homoserine dehydrogenase
inactivation, as well as the dehydrogenase desensitization toward L-threonine occur as a pseudo-first order process. During its inactivation, the aspartokinase remains sensitive to L-threonine. At 50% inactivation, the inhibition curve of the aspartokinase by L-threonine displays homotropic cooperative effects. This alkylated protein retains eight binding sites for L-threonine. During the carboxymethylation, the protein remains in the tetrameric form until half of the kinase activity is lost. At the end of the inactivation aggregate forms and dimers appear.
