Hydrogen transfer reactions catalyzed by coenzyme B(12)-dependent methylmalonyl-CoA mutase have very large kinetic isotope effects, indicating that they proceed by a highly quantal tunneling mechanism. We explain the kinetic isotope effect by using a combined quantum mechanical/molecular mechanical potential and semiclassical quantum dynamics calculations. Multidimensional tunneling increases the magnitude of the calculated intrinsic hydrogen kinetic isotope effect by a factor of 3.6 from 14 to 51, in excellent agreement with experimental results. These calculations confirm that tunneling contributions can be large enough to explain even a kinetic isotope effect &gt;50, not because the barrier is unusually thin but because corner-cutting tunneling decreases the distance over which the system tunnels without a comparable increase in either the effective potential barrier or the effective mass for tunneling.
