Thermodynamics of the binding of flavin adenine dinucleotide to D-amino acid oxidase.
The enthalpy of binding, deltaHb, of flavin adenine dinucleotide to the apoenzyme of D-amino acid oxidase was determined by flow calorimetry at pH 8.5 to be +3.8, -4.1 and -11.0 kcal mol-1 at 10 degrees, 25 degrees and 38 degrees, respectively. These values correspond to a heat capacity change, deltaCp, of -530 cal K-1 mol-1. From the binding constant reported by Dixon and Kleppe (1965a) and the above enthalpies, the standard free energy and standard entropy of binding are evaluated. These thermodynamic data are interpreted in terms of hydrophobic and vibrational contributions (Sturtevant, 1977). The product of the assay reaction (Fonda and Anderson, 1967), benzoylformic acid, is a non-competitive inhibitor of the enzyme with a value for KI of 1.4 X 10(-4)M at 25 degrees.
