Inhibition is a time-dependent first-order process, exhibiting a half-time of 4 h at an inhibitor concentration of 5 mM. A specific ac-tive-site-directed inactivation is supported by protection of the enzymatic activity in the presence of the substrates thiamin and quinoline as well as by the observation that a stoichiometric amount of inorganic chloride is released during inactivation. 4-Amino-5-(anilinomethyl)-6-chloro-2-methylpyrimidine, which resembles the structure of the product of base exchange of thiamin with aniline, inactivates thiaminase approximately 2 orders of magnitude faster. Inactivation is again complete and irreversible and is a time-dependent first-order process, in this case exhibiting saturation at low inhibitor concentrations (A,= 96 µ). Enzyme inactivation can be explained as the result of displacement of chloride from the chlo-ropyrimidine by a nucleophile at the enzyme active site. The inactivation suggests that the Zoltewicz-Kauffman model of bisulfite-catalyzed thiamin cleavage [Zoltewicz, J. A., & Kauffman, G. M.(1977) J. Am. Chem. Soc. 99, 3134-3142], which calls for the reversible nucleophilic addition of catalyst across the 1, 6 double bond of thiamin’s pyrimidine ring, may be applicable to thiaminase as well. laminases are enzymes that destroy thiamin bycleaving the vitamin between the pyrimidinylmethyl group and the thiazole (Fujita, 1954; Murata, 1965, 1982). Thiaminase I (EC 2.5. 1.2) catalyzes a base exchange reaction in which the (4-amino-2-methyl-5-pyrimidinyl) methyl group of thiamin is transferred to any one of a variety of organic nucleophiles, eg, aniline, quinoline, pyridine, and cysteine. A related activity, thiaminase II, catalyzes the transfer of the pyrimidinylmethyl f Supported by research grants to JTS from the National Institutes of Health (GM 32821) and from the Robert A. Welch Foundation (AQ-979). Taken from the Ph. D. dissertation of JAH specifically to water. Scheme I shows the reaction catalyzed by thiaminase I between thiamin and aniline. Thiaminase I occurs in such diverse organisms as ferns, fish, mollusks, Crustacea, and microorganisms (Fujita, 1954; Murata, 1965, 1982). Although the biological function of the enzyme is unknown, it is of some veterinary importance, as it has been demonstrated that animals fed a diet containing excessive quantities of the enzyme develop the neurological symptoms of thiamindeficiency (Green et al., 1941; Woolley, 1941). Production of thiaminase by ruminal microorganisms has been suggested to be the cause of certain thiamin defi-ciencies in livestock (Edwin & Jackson, 1970; Edwin et al.,
