The prothrombinase complex, composed of the
proteinase, factor Xa, bound to factor Va on membranes, catalyzes
thrombin formation by the specific and ordered proteolysis of
prothrombin at Arg323-Ile324, followed by
cleavage at Arg274-Thr275. We have used a
fluorescent derivative of meizothrombin des fragment 1 (mIIa
Exosite Binding Tethers the Macromolecular Substrate to the
Prothrombinase Complex and Directs Cleavage at Two Spatially Distinct
Sites*
F1) as a
substrate analog to assess the mechanism of substrate recognition in
the second half-reaction of bovine prothrombin activation. Cleavage of
mIIa
F1 exhibits pseudo-first order kinetics regardless of the
substrate concentration relative to Km. This
phenomenon arises from competitive product inhibition by thrombin,
which binds to prothrombinase with exactly the same affinity as
mIIa
F1. As thrombin is known to bind to an exosite on
prothrombinase, initial interactions at an exosite likely play a role
in the enzyme-substrate interaction. Occupation of the active site of
prothrombinase by a reversible inhibitor does not exclude the binding
of mIIa
F1 to the enzyme. Specific recognition of mIIa
F1 is
achieved through an initial bimolecular reaction with an enzymic
exosite, followed by an active site docking step in an intramolecular
reaction prior to bond cleavage. By alternate substrate studies, we
have resolved the contributions of the individual binding steps to
substrate affinity and catalysis. This pathway for substrate binding is
identical to that previously determined with a substrate analog for the
first half-reaction of prothrombin activation. We show that differences
in the observed kinetic constants for the two cleavage reactions arise
entirely from differences in the inferred equilibrium constant for the
intramolecular binding step that permits elements surrounding the
scissile bond to dock at the active site of prothrombinase. Therefore,
substrate specificity is achieved by binding interactions with an
enzymic exosite that tethers the protein substrate to prothrombinase
and directs cleavage at two spatially distinct scissile bonds.
