Catalysis of18O exchange between CO2and water catalyzed by a Co(II)-substituted mutant of human carbonic anhydrase II is analyzed to show the rate of release of H218O from the active site. This rate, measured by mass spectrometry, is dependent on proton transfer to the metal-bound18O-labeled hydroxide, and was observed in a site-specific mutant of carbonic anhydrase II in which a prominent proton shuttle residue His64 was replaced by alanine, which does not support proton transport. Upon increasing the concentration of bicarbonate, the rate of release of H218O increased in a saturable manner to a maximum of 4 × 105s-1, consistent with proton transfer from bicarbonate to the Co(II)-bound hydroxide. The same mutant of carbonic anhydrase containing Zn(II) had the rate of release of H218O smaller by 10-fold, but rate of interconversion of CO2and HCO3-about the same as the Co(II)-containing enzyme. These data as well as solvent hydrogen isotope effects suggest that the bicarbonate transferring the proton is bound to the cobalt in the enzyme. The enhancement of18O exchange caused by increasing bicarbonate concentration during catalysis by the Zn(II)-containing carbonic anhydrase from the archaeonMethanosarcina thermophilasuggests that a very similar mechanism for proton donation by bicarbonate occurs with this wild-type enzyme.
