Revised Manuscript Received September 8, 1994® abstract: Analogs of EPSP (4—8) have been prepared, and their activity as substrates for the chorismate synthase from Neurospora crassa has beencharacterized kinetically. The enzyme appears to show strict discrimination against substitution at the Z-position of the enol ether side chain as well as against substitution at the 5-position of the reduced analogs. Both the glycolyl and (R)-lactyl analogs 4 and (R)-5 are good substrates, with (R)-5 having a higher V value than the natural substrate. Three substrates, including EPSP, have been found to show significant substrate inhibition with this enzyme, which at present can be explained by a noncompetitive model involving formation of a catalytically incompetent, ternary ESz complex. A significant secondary kinetic isotope effect on V of 1.10±0.02 has beenobserved at C-3 with EPSP, indicating thatC—O bond cleavage is kinetically significant at saturating substrate concentration; this effect is severely depressed at limiting substrate, with D (V/K)=0.97±0.02. A similar effect is found for the primary deuterium isotope effect at C-6R, as observed previously [Balasubramanian, S., Davies, G. M., Coggins, J. R., & Abell, C.(1991) J. Am. Chem. Soc. 113, 8945—8946]. The primary isotope effects at C-6R with reduced analogs (/?)-5 and (5)-6 are significantly larger than those with EPSP. The larger values of V and DV for (R)-S, when compared to EPSP, are evidence that release of chorismate is partially rate-limiting under saturating conditions. Incubation of the enzyme with reduced 5-deazaFMN does not result in any observable formation of chorismate, consistent with previous results indicating that reduced flavin is chemically involved in the synthesis of chorismate from EPSP [Ramjee,. N., Balasubramanian, S., Abell, C., Coggins, J. R., Davies, G. M., Hawkes, TR, Lowe, D. J., &
