The chemical shifts of all the aromatic proton and anomeric proton resonances of NADP+, NADPH, and several structural analogues have been determined in their complexes with Lactobacillus casei dihydrofolate reductase by double-resonance (saturation transfer) experiments. The binding of NADP+ to the enzyme leads to large (0.9-1.6 ppm) downfield shifts of all the nicotinamide proton resonances and somewhat smaller upfield shifts of the adenine proton resonance. The latter signals show very similar chemical shifts in the binary and ternary complexes of NADP+ and the binary complexes of several other coenzymes, suggesting that the environment of the adenine ring is similar in all cases. In contrast, the nicotinamide proton resonances show much greater variability in position from one complex to another. The data show that the environments of the nicotinamide rings of NADP+, NADPH, and the thionicotinamide and acetylpyridine analogues of NADP+ in their binary complexes with the enzyme are quite markedly different from one another. Addition of folate or methotrexate to the binary complex has only modest effects on the nicotinamide ring of NADP+, but trimethoprim produces a substantial change in its environment. The dissociation rate constant of NADP+ from a number of complexes was also determined by saturation transfer.
