Abstract
The kinetic mechanism of nucleic acid substrate binding and nucleotide incorporation by human immunodeficiency virus type 1 reverse transcriptase (HIV-1 RT) was analysed using synthetic DNA/DNA and DNA/RNA primer/templates (p/t) without predicted secondary structures in the single-stranded region. Determination of the pre-steady-state kinetics of p/t binding by a combination of stopped-flow and quench flow methods indicate a branched binding mechanism for the HIV-1 RT/nucleic acid interaction. Analysis of p/t-RT association by stopped-flow measurements suggest a three-step binding mode with an initial second-order step followed by two isomerisation steps with rates of about 6 s⁻¹ and 0.5 s⁻¹, respectively. Determination of the rate-limiting step of the association process via single turnover, single nucleotide incorporation analysis by quench flow measurements revealed two binding events (the initial second-order step cannot be detected with this experimental set-up) with rates of 4 – 7 s⁻¹ and 0.4 – 0.7 s⁻¹, respectively, indicating that both binding events exist in parallel. Thorough pre-steady-state analysis of single turnover, single nucleotide incorporation kinetics showed that dNTP incorporation occurs with a biphasic exponential burst followed by a linear phase. The exponential burst consists of a fast phase with rates of 20 - 60 s⁻¹ and a slow phase with rates of 0.5 - 2 s⁻¹, respectively. The relative distribution of these two burst amplitudes differs significantly depending upon which substrate is used. The DNA/RNA-RT complex shows primarily fast incorporation (>80 %) whereas less than 45 % of the DNA/DNA-RT complex incorporate dNTP rapidly. The same relative distribution of amplitudes concerning the two substrates is also found for the association process of RT and p/t. Analysis of dNTP incorporation of the preformed RT-p/t complex in the presence of a nucleic acid competitor shows no effect on the biphasic burst amplitude, however the linear phase disappears. Here, a refined model of the mechanism of RT-p/t binding is presented which is based on the suggestion that two different RT-p/t complexes are formed, i.e. a productive enzyme/substrate complex which is capable of nucleotide incorporation and a non-productive complex which has to undergo an isomerisation before dNTP incorporation can occur. In addition, binding of RT to its substrate can lead to a dead end complex that is not capable of dNTP incorporation.
