[Interaction of intracellular RNAase from Aspergillus clavatus with derivatives of its substrates].
Using spectrophotometric and kinetic methods and also the methods of protection of Aspergillus clavatus RNAse (EC 3.1.4.23) by adenine nucleotides and their components against inactivation by means of acylation or heating, it was found that RNAse-nucleotide complex was formed by association of one enzyme molecule with one nucleotide molecule. It was also shown that all components of nucleotides (base, ribose and phosphate) take part in the formation of such complex and the removal of one of them (base or phosphate) lead to loosening of bindings of remaining fragments (ribose-5'-monophosphate, adenine) with the active site of RNAse, and to disappearance of bends within the pH range of 3.0-4.0 on the plot of pKi (5'-MP) versus pH, within the pH range of 5.5-7.0 on the plot of oKi (Ado) versus pH. The possibility of participation of associative pair RNAse imidasole groups - nucleotide phosphate groups and RNAse carboxylic group - nucleotide base in the mechanism of formation of enzyme-nucleotide (enzyme-substrate) complexes is postulated.
