Upon mutation of Asn130 to aspartate, the catalytic activity of human arginase I was reduced to 17% of wild-type activity, theKmvalue for arginine was increased 9-fold, and thekcat ⁄Kmvalue was reduced 50-fold. The kinetic properties were much less affected by replacement of Asn130 with glutamine. | ỊFEBS Journal Mutational analysis of substrate recognition by human arginase type I - agmatinase activity of the N130D variant Ricardo Alarcon Maria S.

The kinetic properties were much less affected by replacement of Asn130 with glutamine. In contrast with the wild-type and N130Q enzymes the N130D variant was active not only on arginine but also on its decarboxylated derivative agmatine. Moreover it exhibited no preferential substrate specificity for arginine over agmatine kcav Km values of 2.48 X 103 M-1-s-1 and 2.14 X 103 M-1-s-1 respectively . After dialysis against EDTA and assay in the absence of added Mn2 the N130D mutant enzyme was inactive whereas about 50 full activity was expressed by the wild-type and N130Q variants. Mutations were not accompanied by changes in the tryptophan fluorescence properties thermal stability or chromatographic behavior of the enzyme. An active site conformational change is proposed as an explanation for the altered substrate specificity and low catalytic efficiency of the N130D variant. Arginase L-arginine amidino hydrolase EC 3.5.3.1 catalyzes the hydrolysis of L-arginine to the products L-ornithine and urea. The enzyme is widely distributed .
