l-asparaginases (EC 3.5.1.1) play an important role in nitrogen mobilization in plants. Here, we investigated the biochemical and biophysical properties of potassium-dependent (PvAspG1) and potassium-independent (PvAspG-T2) l-asparaginases from Phaseolus vulgaris. Our previous studies revealed that PvAspG1 requires potassium for catalytic activation and its crystal structure suggested that Ser-118 in the activation loop plays a critical role in coordinating the metal cation. This amino acid residue is replaced by isoleucine in PvAspG-T2. Reciprocal mutants of the enzymes were produced and the effect of the amino acid substitution on the kinetic parameters, allosteric effector binding, secondary structure conformation, and pH profile were studied. Introduction of the serine residue conferred potassium activation in PvAspG-T2. Conversely, the PvAspG1-S118I mutant could no longer be activated by potassium. PvAspG1 and the PvAspG-T2-I117S mutant had a similar half-maximal effective concentration (EC50 ) value for potassium activation, between 0.1 and 0.3 mm. Potassium binding elicited a similar conformational change in PvAspG1 and PvAspG-T2-I117S, as studied by circular dichroism. However, no change in conformation was observed for PvAspG-T2 and PvAspG1-S118I. Analysis of kinetic parameters in function of pH indicated that potassium activation mediated by Ser-118 influences the ionization of specific functional groups in the enzyme-substrate complex. Together, the results indicate that Ser-118 of PvAspG1 is essential and sufficient for potassium activation in plant l-asparaginases. ENZYME: l-Asparaginase (EC 3.5.1.1).
