Kinetic analysis of the reaction catalyzed by a homogeneous preparation of orotate phosphoribosyltransferase from yeast has revealed that the reaction may proceed through the use of a Bi Bi Ping Pong kinetic mechanism. This interpretation is based on initial rate measurements and product inhibition studies of both the forward phosphoribosyl transfer and the reverse pyrophosphorolysis reactions in the presence of excess magnesium ion. The physiological phosphoribosyl transfer reaction may thus be initiated by the formation of an activated ribosylphosphate-enzyme intermediate from phosphoribosyl l’-pyrophosphate (PRib-PP) with the release of pyrophosphate (PPi) from the a-1’ position. The second half of the reaction involves the formation of a j?-l’-glycosidic bond between orotate and the ribose phosphate moiety on the enzyme to form orotidine Y-phosphate (OMP). Each half-reaction was characterized using labeled [‘4C]orotate and [32P]PPi and the enzyme was shown to catalyze an exchange of label, first, between [‘4C]orotate and OMP in the absence of P-Rib-PP, and second, between [32P]PPi an d P-Rib-PP in the absence of orotate. Because stereochemical inversion results from the overall reaction, this ping-pong reaction must involve a mechanism more complicated than a double displacement. We propose that the enzyme-bound ribosylphosphate exists as a carbonium ion. Michaelis constants (K,,,) for P-Rib-PP, orotate, PPi, and OMP were determined to be 38 + 6 PM, 35 k 9 PM, 96 f 6 PM, and 8 + 2 pM, respectively. The utilization of Hluoro-orotate produced initial velocity plots and a K,,, value of P-Rib-PP analogous to those observed with orotate. A K,,, value of 27 f 5 pM calculated for fluoroorotate was similar to the value determined for orotate. Product inhibition constants (Ki) for all of the reactants were calculated from the kinetic data for both the forward and reverse reactions. These values of Ki were calculated to be 42 & 5 pM, 63 f 2 pM, 131 + 50 pM, and 10 f 2 PM for P-Rib-PP, orotate, F!Pi, and OMP, respectively, and were used along with the Km and V,, values to calculate a value of 0.49 for the equilibrium constant for the reversible phosphoribosyl transfer reaction.
