In this work, a catalytic antibody that accelerates the rate of enantioselective hydrolysis of ibuprofen methyl ester was obtained against an immunogen consisting of tetrahedral phosphonate hapten attached to bovine serum albumin (BSA). The catalytic activity of the catalytic antibody in the water-miscible organic-solvent system composed of a buffer solution and N, N-dimethylformamide (DMF) was studied. With 6% DMF in the buffer solution (containing catalytic antibody 0.25 μmol, 0.2 mol·L-1 phosphate buffer, pH 8) at 37°C for 10 h, a good conversion (48.7%) and high enantiomeric excess (>99%) could be reached. The kinetic analysis of the cata-lytic antibody-catalyzed reaction showed that the hydrolysis in the water-miscible organic-solvent system with DMF in buffer solution followed the Michaelis-Menten kinetics. The catalytic efficiency (Kcat/Km) was enhanced to 151.91 L·mmol-1·min-1, twice as large as that for the buffer solution only.展开更多

We describe here the structural models for the complex of a catalytic sntibody Fv fragment with a phosphonate transition -state analogue, constructed by using gene cloning, sequencing and molecular modeling, mainly based on a known X-ray structure of a catalytic atibody. Hydrophobic and electrostatic analyses of the Fv/analog and Fv/substrate interaction suggest the hydrolysis mechanism: In L91 and Tyr H97 play important roles to stabilize the β-naphthyl group of hapten through r-stack; His H35 donates a pair of free electrons at the atom NEZ to an active water and let it to be a partial hydroxide, which attacks the carbon atom of the carbonyl group of the substrate. Both His H35 and Arg L96 can form hydrogen bonds and stabilize the Anoinc tetrahedral intermediate formed during turnover. This mechanism emphasizes that an active water bridge may be formed during hydrolysis process.展开更多
