The importance of carboxyl groups near the active site zinc for the catalytic function of alcohol dehydrogenase I from Saccharomyces cerevisiae was examined by directed mutagenesis and steady state kinetics. Asp-49 was changed to asparagine and Glu-68 to glutamine (residue numbering as for horse liver enzyme). The catalytic efficiencies (V/Km) for ethanol oxidation and acetaldehyde reduction were decreased by factors of 1000 with the Asn-49 mutant and 100 with the Gln-68 enzyme. For the Asn-49 mutant, dissociation constants for coenzymes increased 7-fold, and Michaelis and inhibition constants for substrates and substrate analogs increased by factors of 20-50. The turnover numbers were reduced 50-fold for ethanol oxidation and 15-fold for acetaldehyde reduction. Product and dead-end inhibition studies and kinetic isotope effects showed that the mechanism with NAD+ and ethanol was rapid equilibrium random, in contrast to the ordered mechanism of wild-type enzyme. Alcohol dehydrogenase I and the Asn-49 mutant had similar CD spectra and 2 zinc atoms/subunit, but slightly different UV absorption and fluorescence spectra. The Gln-68 mutant resembled the wild-type enzyme in most kinetic constants, but the turnover number for ethanol oxidation decreased 35-fold, and Kd for NAD+ and Km for acetaldehyde increased by factors of 4 and 50, respectively. The pK values for V1 and V1/Km for ethanol oxidation were shifted from 7.7 (wild-type) to 6.8 in the Gln-68 and 6.2 in the Asn-49 mutant. The altered electrostatic environment near the active site zinc apparently decreases activities by hindering isomerizations of enzyme-substrate complexes.
