P–O Bond Destabilization Accelerates Phosphoenzyme Hydrolysis of Sarcoplasmic Reticulum Ca2+-ATPase
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The phosphate group of the ADP-insensitive phosphoenzyme (E2-P) of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ -ATPase (SERCA1a) was studied with infrared spectroscopy to understand the high hydrolysis rate of E2-P. By monitoring an autocatalyzed isotope exchange reaction, three stretching vibrations of the transiently bound phosphate group were selectively observed against a background of 50,000 protein vibrations. They were found at 1194, 1137, and 1115 cm(-1). This information was evaluated using the bond valence model and empirical correlations. Compared with the model compound acetyl phosphate, structure and charge distribution of the E2-P aspartyl phosphate resemble somewhat the transition state in a dissociative phosphate transfer reaction; the aspartyl phosphate of E2-P has 0.02 A shorter terminal P-O bonds and a 0.09 A longer bridging P-O bond that is approximately 20% weaker, the angle between the terminal P-O bonds is wider, and -0.2 formal charges are shifted from the phosphate group to the aspartyl moiety. The weaker bridging P-O bond of E2-P accounts for a 10(11)-10(15)-fold hydrolysis rate enhancement, implying that P-O bond destabilization facilitates phosphoenzyme hydrolysis. P-O bond destabilization is caused by a shift of noncovalent interactions from the phosphate oxygens to the aspartyl oxygens. We suggest that the relative positioning of Mg2+ and Lys684 between phosphate and aspartyl oxygens controls the hydrolysis rate of the ATPase phosphoenzymes and related phosphoproteins.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
