The ATP analog ATP gamma S is a competitive inhibitor of the recA protein-catalyzed ssDNA-dependent ATP hydrolysis reaction. The degree of inhibition by ATP gamma S, however, changes in a time-dependent manner and is consistent with a two step binding mechanism. In the first step, ATP gamma S binds to the recA-ssDNA complex in a rapid equilibrium step (K-D = 50 mu M). This initial binding step is followed by an isomerization of the recA-ssDNA-ATP gamma S complex to a new conformational state in which ATP gamma S is bound with a significantly higher affinity (overall K-D = 0.3 mu M) This isomerization is followed by the slow hydrolysis of ATP gamma S to ADP and thiophosphate (0.01 min(-1)). The first-order rate constant for the ATP gamma S-mediated isomerization step (20 min(-1)), although significantly greater than the rate of ATP gamma S hydrolysis, is identical to the steady-state rate constant for the recA protein-catalyzed ATP hydrolysis reaction, These results are consistent with a kinetic model in which an ATP-mediated isomerization of the recA-ssDNA complex represents the rate-determining step on the recA protein-catalyzed ssDNA-dependent ATP hydrolysis reaction pathway.
