Curtis F. Brewer* and Rodney D. Brown, III abstract: In previousstudies of the interaction of solvent water molecules with the Mn2+ ion in manganese-concanavalin A (Ca2+-Mn2+-Con A) by observation of the magnetic field dependence (dispersion) of the spin-lattice relaxationrate (re1) of the solvent water protons over a wide range of magnetic fields [Koenig, S. H., Brown, RD, & Brewer, C. F.(1973) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 70, 475], we have shown that 7f* is dominated by the residence time of an exchanging water ligand (s) on the Mn2+ ion. Additional measurements were made on Ca2+-Mn2+-Con A solutions in the presence of sufficient amounts of either methyl a- or, ß-D-glucopyranoside to saturate the carbohydrate binding sites of the protein, and it was observed that the relaxation rate across the dispersion spectrum was reduced by approximately 15%. In thepresent study, we have measured the effects of binding of a series of mono- and oligosaccharides to Ca2+-Mn2+-Con A on the solvent water proton relaxation rate over a range of magnetic fields from 5 Oe to 12 KOe. The observed change in relaxation rate was shown to be sensitive to the affinity constants of the saccharides tested in that the effect was proportional to the amount of saccharide bound to the protein. Quantitative analysis revealed that theobserved decrease in solvent relaxation rate upon saccharide binding is due to an increase in the residence time of the exchanging water ligand (s) of the Mn2+ ion. This effect is consistent with a conformational change in the protein upon binding of saccharides. We find that binding of methyl a- and 3-D-glucopyranoside, methyl-D-mannópyranoside, and oiodo-phenyl 3-D-glucopyranoside in sufficient amountsto saturate the carbohydrate sites of the protein produces the same in-crease in the residence time of the exchanging water ligand (s). Galactose and o-iodophenyl 3-D-galactopyranoside, which doInterest in the protein concanavalin A (Con A), 1 a lectin isolated from the jack bean (Canavalia ensiformis), derives from its unusual biological properties. In particular, its ability to bind to the surface of both normal and transformed cells has made it a powerful tool for exploring a wide variety of cell-surface related biological effects (cf. Lis & Sharon, 1973). The interaction of Con A with cell-surface membranes is related to the saccharide binding properties of the protein. The saccharide binding specificity of Con A has been shownby Goldstein et al.(1965) to be directed toward the mono-saccharides glucose and mannose, which contain similar hydroxyl group configuration atthe 3, 4, and 6 positions.
