Methionine γ-lyase (MGL) is a pyridoxal 5′-phosphate–dependent enzyme catalyzing γ-elimination in l-methionine. Pyridoxal 5′-phosphate–dependent enzymes have unique spectral properties that allow to monitor sequential formation and decomposition of various intermediates via the detection of absorbance changes. The kinetic mechanism of the γ-elimination reaction catalyzed by Citrobacter freundii MGL was elucidated here by fast stopped-flow kinetic analysis. Single-wavelength detection of characteristic absorbance changes enabled us to compare transformations of intermediates in the course of the reaction with different substrates. The influence of various γ-substituents in the substrate on the formation of key intermediates was estimated. Kinetic isotope effects of α- and β-protons were determined using deuterium-substituted l-methionine. Contributions of amino acid residues Tyr113 and Tyr58 located in the active site on the formation and decomposition of reaction intermediates were identified too. α-Aminocrotonate formation is the rate-limiting step of the enzymatic γ-elimination reaction. Kinetic isotope effects strongly support concerted reaction mechanisms of transformation between an external aldimine and a ketimine intermediate as well as a ketimine intermediate and an unsaturated ketimine.
