The synthesis and kinetics characterization of a new class of dopamine beta-hydroxylase (DBH; EC 1.14.17.1) inhibitor, 1-(4-hydroxybenzyl)imidazole-2-thiol, is reported. These inhibitors, which incorporate a phenethylamine substrate mimic and an oxygen mimic into a single molecule, exhibit both the kinetic properties and the potency (Kis approximately 10(-9) M) expected for a multisubstrate inhibitor and are therefore classified as such. Steady-state kinetic experiments with these multisubstrate inhibitors and their substructural analogues support the recently proposed pH-dependent changes in substrate binding order [Ahn, N., & Klinman, J. P. (1983) Biochemistry 22, 3106] and a mechanism whereby the inhibitor binds specifically to the reduced Cu+ form of enzyme at both the phenethylamine substrate site and the active-site copper atom(s). A Yonetani-Theorell double-inhibition experiments indicates mutually exclusive binding of the inhibitor substructures p-cresol and 1-methylimidazole-2-thiol to suggest an extremely short intersite distance between the phenethylamine binding site and the active-site copper atom(s).
