SUMMARY: The catalytic and non-catalytic Zn atom pairs of horse liver alcohol e dro enase (LADH) have been replaced sequentially either by 65Zn, Co or E-2 co. The Co derivatives exhibit characteristic spectra. When Co replaces the Zn atoms which exchange secondly, enzymatic activity is altered, and both imidazole and l,lO-phenanthroline (OP) significantly modify the spectrum of the catalytic Co atoms. Further, due to the removal of cobalt, the instantaneous and reversible OP inhibition of the native enzyme becomes t!me-dependent and irreversible. Jointly, these data identify the pair of metal atoms of LADH which exchange secondly under the present conditions as the catalytic one. The approach described provides a basis for the differentiation of catalytic and non-catalytic metal atoms of multichain metalloenzymes. INTRODUCTION:

METHODS: LADH (Boehringer-Mannheim) containing 4 g-atoms Zn/mole enzyme was .-labeled with 65Zn by exchange experiments so that pairs of intrinsic atoms are sequentially replaced to yield [(LADH)65Zn2Zn2] or [(LADH)Zn266Zn2] (8), where the order of the atoms indicates the sequence of replacements thereby providing site-specific monitors for subsequent quantitative replacement with Enzymatic activity, metal content, and radioactivity were determined and LADH was dialyzed against CoCl2 Reagents were purified as described (8). *Fellow
