Ten M.HhaI residues were replaced with alanine to probe the importance of distal protein elements to substrate/cofactor binding21,methyl transfer, and product release. The substitutions, ranging from 6–20 Å from the active site were evaluated by thermodynamic analysis, pre-steady and steady-state kinetics, to obtain KdAdoMet, KdDNA, kcat/KmDNA, kcat, and kmethyltransfervalues. For the wild-type M.HhaI, product release steps dominate catalytic turnover while the 4-fold faster internal microscopic constant kmethyltransferpresents an upper limit. The methyl transfer reaction has δH‡ and δS‡ values of 10.3 kcal/mol and—29.4 cal/(mol K), respectively, consistent with a compressed transition state similar to that observed in the gas phase. Although the ten mutants remained largely unperturbed in methyl transfer, long-range effects influencing substrate/cofactor binding and product release were observed. Positive enhancements were seen in Asp73Ala, which showed a 25fold improvement in AdoMet affinity and in Val282Ala, which showed a 4-fold improvement in catalytic turnover. Based on an analysis of the positional probability within the C5- cytosine DNA methyltransferase family we propose that certain conserved distal residues may be important in mediating long-range effects.
