The interaction between the inhibitor protein and the catalytic subunit of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase has been investigated by steady state kinetics and by an assessment of the requirement of this interaction for ATP. By analysis for tightly bound inhibitors, inhibition by the inhibitor protein was shown to be competitive versus peptide substrate and uncompetitive versus Mg X ATP2-. This, together with the observations of Gronot et al. (Gronot, J., Mildvan, A.S., Bramson, H. N., Thomas, N., and Kaiser, E.T. (1981) Biochemistry 20, 602-610) and those given in the accompanying paper (Whitehouse, S., Feramisco, J.R., Casnellie, J.E., Krebs, E.G., and Walsh, D.A. (1983) J. Biol. Chem. 258, 3693-3701), would indicate that the probable reaction mechanism of the protein kinase is ordered with the nucleotide binding first and that the inhibitor protein blocks catalysis by interaction with the catalytic subunit-Mg X ATP complex. The Ki for this interaction at saturating Mg X ATP and zero peptide substrate is 0.49 nM. Multiple inhibition analysis in the presence of 5'-adenylimidodiphosphate (AMP X PNP) indicates that the inhibitor protein does not interact with a catalytic subunit-AMP X PNP complex. The requirement for ATP for the inhibitor protein-catalytic subunit interaction has also been demonstrated by direct binding measurements and by the observation that the efficiency of the inhibitor protein is increased by preincubation of the inhibitor protein, catalytic subunit, and ATP in the absence of peptide substrate. By either measurement, the catalytic subunit in the presence of the inhibitor protein, was shown to exhibit an apparent Kd of 20 approximately 60 nM for ATP; this value is two orders of magnitude higher than the affinity for ATP by the catalytic subunit alone. This high apparent affinity of the catalytic subunit for ATP (in the presence of the inhibitor) does not require that there be a specific binding site on the inhibitor protein for some moiety of the ATP but may simply be a reflection of the formation of a catalytic subunit-Mg X ATP X inhibitor protein complex with resultant displacement of the equilibrium of ATP binding to the protein kinase.  相似文献

Kinetic analysis of the inhibition of the phosphorylation of Kemptide, (LRRASLG), catalyzed by the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase, by a peptide-nucleoside conjugate inhibitor AdcAhxArg6 was carried out over a wide range of ATP and peptide concentrations. A simple procedure was proposed for characterization of the interaction of this inhibitor with the free enzyme, and with the enzyme-ATP and enzyme-peptide complexes. The second-order rate constants, calculated from the steady-state reaction kinetics, were used for this analysis to avoid the complications related to the complex catalytic mechanism of the protein kinase catalyzed reaction.  相似文献

The activation of phosphorylase kinase (EC 2.7.1.38; ATP:phosphorylase b phosphotransferase) by the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (EC 2.7.1.37; ATP:protein phosphotransferase) is inhibited by calmodulin. The mechanism of that inhibition has been studied by kinetic measurements of the interactions of the three proteins. The binding constant for calmodulin with phosphorylase kinase was found to be 90 nM when measured by fluorescence polarization spectroscopy. Glycerol gradient centrifugation studies indicated that 1 mol of calmodulin was bound to each phosphorylase kinase. Phosphorylation of the phosphorylase kinase did not reduce the amount of calmodulin bound. Kinetic studies of the activity of the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase on phosphorylase kinase as a function of phosphorylase kinase and calmodulin concentrations were performed. The results of those studies were compared with mathematical models of four different modes of inhibition: competitive, noncompetitive, substrate depletion, and inhibition by a complex between phosphorylase kinase and calmodulin. The data conform best to the model in which the inhibitory species is a complex of phosphorylase kinase and calmodulin. The complex apparently competes with the substrate, phosphorylase kinase, which does not have exogenous calmodulin bound to it. In contrast, the phosphorylation of the synthetic phosphate acceptor peptide, Kemptide, is not inhibited by calmodulin.  相似文献

The human X chromosome-encoded protein kinase X (PrKX) belongs to the family of cAMP-dependent protein kinases. The catalytically active recombinant enzyme expressed in COS cells phosphorylates the heptapeptide Kemptide (LRRASLG) with a specific activity of 1.5 micromol/(min.mg). Using surface plasmon resonance, high affinity interactions were demonstrated with the regulatory subunit type I (RIalpha) of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (KD = 10 nM) and the heat-stable protein kinase inhibitor (KD = 15 nM), but not with the type II regulatory subunit (RIIalpha, KD = 2.3 microM) under physiological conditions. Kemptide and autophosphorylation activities of PrKX are strongly inhibited by the RIalpha subunit and by protein kinase inhibitor in vitro, but only weakly by the RIIalpha subunit. The inhibition by the RIalpha subunit is reversed by addition of nanomolar concentrations of cAMP (Ka = 40 nM), thus demonstrating that PrKX is a novel, type I cAMP-dependent protein kinase that is activated at lower cAMP concentrations than the holoenzyme with the Calpha subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Microinjection data clearly indicate that the type I R subunit but not type II binds to PrKX in vivo, preventing the translocation of PrKX to the nucleus in the absence of cAMP. The RIIalpha subunit is an excellent substrate for PrKX and is phosphorylated in vitro in a cAMP-independent manner. We discuss how PrKX can modulate the cAMP-mediated signal transduction pathway by preferential binding to the RIalpha subunit and by phosphorylating the RIIalpha subunit in the absence of cAMP.  相似文献

The cytosolic fraction of insulin-treated adipocytes exhibits a 2-fold increase in protein kinase activity when Kemptide is used as a substrate. The detection of insulin-stimulated kinase activity is critically dependent on the presence of phosphatase inhibitors such as fluoride and vanadate in the cell homogenization buffer. The cytosolic protein kinase activity exhibits high sensitivity (ED50 = 2 X 10(-10) M) and a rapid response (maximal after 2 min) to insulin. Kinetic analyses of the cytosolic kinase indicate that insulin increases the Vmax of Kemptide phosphorylation and ATP utilization without affecting the affinities of this enzyme toward the substrate or nucleotide. Upon chromatography on anion-exchange and gel filtration columns, the insulin-stimulated cytosolic kinase activity is resolved from the cAMP-dependent protein kinase and migrates as a single peak with an apparent Mr = 50,000-60,000. The partially purified kinase preferentially utilizes histones, Kemptide, multifunctional calmodulin-dependent protein kinase substrate peptide, ATP citrate-lyase, and acetyl-coenzyme A carboxylase as substrates but does not catalyze phosphorylation of ribosomal protein S6, casein, phosvitin, phosphorylase b, glycogen synthase, inhibitor II, and substrate peptides for casein kinase II, protein kinase C, and cGMP-dependent protein kinase. Phosphoamino acid analyses of the 32P-labeled substrates reveal that the insulin-stimulated cytosolic kinase is primarily serine-specific. The insulin-activated cytosolic kinase prefers Mn2+ to Mg2+ and is independent of Ca2+. Unlike ribosomal protein S6 kinase and protease-activated kinase II, the insulin-sensitive cytosolic kinase is fluoride-insensitive. Taken together, these results indicate that a novel cytosolic protein kinase activity is activated by insulin.  相似文献

Affinities of the catalytic subunit (C1) of Saccharomyces cerevisiae cAMP-dependent protein kinase and of mammalian cGMP-dependent protein kinase were determined for the protein kinase inhibitor (PKI) peptide PKI(6-22)amide and seven analogues. These analogues contained structural alterations in the N-terminal alpha-helix, the C-terminal pseudosubstrate portion, or the central connecting region of the PKI peptide. In all cases, the PKI peptides were appreciably less active as inhibitors of yeast C1 than of mammalian C alpha subunit. Ki values ranged from 5- to 290-fold higher for the yeast enzyme than for its mammalian counterpart. Consistent with these results, yeast C1 exhibited a higher Km for the peptide substrate Kemptide. All of the PKI peptides were even less active against the mammalian cGMP-dependent protein kinase than toward yeast cAMP-dependent protein kinase, and Kemptide was a poorer substrate for the former enzyme. Alignment of amino acid sequences of these homologous protein kinases around residues in the active site of mammalian C alpha subunit known to interact with determinants in the PKI peptide [Knighton, D. R., Zheng, J., Ten Eyck, L. F., Xuong, N-h, Taylor, S. S., & Sowadski, J. M. (1991) Science 253, 414-420] provides a structural basis for the inherently lower affinities of yeast C1 and cGMP-dependent protein kinase for binding peptide inhibitors and substrates. Both yeast cAMP-dependent and mammalian cGMP-dependent protein kinases are missing two of the three acidic residues that interact with arginine-18 in the pseudosubstrate portion of PKI. Further, the cGMP-dependent protein kinase appears to completely lack the hydrophobic/aromatic pocket that recognizes the important phenylalanine-10 residue in the N-terminus of the PKI peptide, and binding of the inhibitor by the yeast protein kinase at this site appears to be partially compromised.  相似文献

A potent fluorescent ATP-like inhibitor of cAMP-dependent protein kinase   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
The fluorescent ATP analogue 8-azido-2'-O-[14C]dansyl-ATP ([ 14C]AD-ATP) was used to probe the ATP-binding site in the catalytic (C) subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase. AD-ATP was found to inhibit the phosphotransferase activity of C subunit with extremely high specificity. Complete inhibition was observed when each mol of C subunit was covalently labeled with 1 mol of this fluorescent ATP analogue. The labeling can be accelerated by the presence of Mg2+ or Kemptide (Leu-Arg-Arg-Ala-Ser-Leu-Gly), whereas high concentrations of ATP can almost completely protect the enzyme from AD-ATP. Detailed studies indicated that AD-ATP competes with ATP for binding to C subunit. Analysis of the kinetic data gave dissociation constants of 2.9 and 13 microM for AD-ATP and ATP bound to C subunit, respectively. AD-ATP has a fluorescence emission peak at 510 nm in pH 7.0 aqueous buffer containing 25% glycerol. After covalent binding to C subunit this emission peak shifts to 455 nm, which suggests that the label at ATP site is in an endogenous hydrophobic environment. Upon the binding of Mg2+ or Kemptide, the fluorescence of AD-ATP-labeled C subunit can be enhanced by 50 and 45%, respectively. This enhancement suggests that the binding of either the peptide substrate or Mg2+ induces conformational change at the active site of C subunit. Analysis of the fluorescence data shows that the values of Kd for Mg2+ and Kemptide bound to AD-ATP-labeled C subunit are 0.2 mM and 2.1 microM, respectively. The normal procedure for the preparation of the C subunit from the bovine heart muscle has been simplified to require only one-fifth of the usual working time to obtain the homogeneous enzyme with 70% yield from the crude extract.  相似文献

Rho-Kinase is a serine/threonine kinase that is involved in the regulation of smooth muscle contraction and cytoskeletal reorganization of nonmuscle cells. While the signal transduction pathway in which Rho-Kinase participates has been and continues to be extensively studied, the kinetic mechanism of Rho-Kinase-catalyzed phosphorylation has not been investigated. We report here elucidation of the kinetic mechanism for Rho-Kinase by using steady-state kinetic studies. These studies used the kinase domain of human Rho-Kinase II (ROCK-II 1-534) with S6 peptide (biotin-AKRRRLSSLRA-NH(2)) as the phosphorylatable substrate. Double-reciprocal plots for two-substrate kinetic data yielded intersecting line patterns with either ATP or S6 peptide as the varied substrate, indicating that Rho-Kinase utilized a ternary complex (sequential) kinetic mechanism. Dead-end inhibition studies were used to investigate the order of binding for ATP and the peptide substrate. The ATP-competitive inhibitors AMP-PCP and Y-27632 were noncompetitive inhibitors versus S6 peptide, and the S6 peptide analogue S6-AA (acetyl-AKRRRLAALRA-NH(2)) was a competitive inhibitor versus S6 peptide and a noncompetitive inhibitor versus ATP. These results indicated a random order of binding for ATP and S6 peptide.  相似文献

Inhibition of protein kinase C by annexin V.   总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11  
Annexin V is a protein of unknown biological function that undergoes Ca(2+)-dependent binding to phospholipids located on the cytosolic face of the plasma membrane. Preliminary results presented herein suggest that a biological function of annexin V is the inhibition of protein kinase C (PKC). In vitro assays showed that annexin V was a specific high-affinity inhibitor of PKC-mediated phosphorylation of annexin I and myosin light chain kinase substrates, with half-maximal inhibition occurring at approximately 0.4 microM. Annexin V did not inhibit epidermal growth factor receptor/kinase phosphorylation of annexin I or cAMP-dependent protein kinase phosphorylation of the Kemptide peptide substrate. Since annexin V purified from both human placenta and recombinant bacteria inhibited protein kinase C activity, it is not likely that the inhibitor activity was associated with a minor contaminant of the preparations. The following results indicated that the mechanism of inhibition did not involve annexin V sequestration of phospholipid that was required for protein kinase C activation: similar inhibition curves were observed as phospholipid concentration was varied from 0 to 800 micrograms/mL; the extent of inhibition was not significantly affected by the order of addition of phospholipid, substrate, or PKC, and the core domain of annexin I was not a high-affinity inhibitor of PKC even though it had similar Ca2+ and phospholipid binding properties as annexin V. These data indirectly indicate that inhibition occurred by direct interaction between annexin V and PKC. Since the concentration of annexin V in many cell types exceeds the amounts required to achieve PKC inhibition in vitro, it is possible that annexin V inhibits PKC in a biologically significant manner in intact cells.  相似文献

In a previous report on the ontogeny of the ovarian adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP)-dependent protein kinase activity during prepubertal development of the rat, we concluded that the 4-fold decline in cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity observed in ovaries of 21- to 23-day-old rats was due to the presence of a heat-labile inhibitor in the ovarian extracts (Hunzicker-Dunn et al., 1984). We developed an assay for this ovarian kinase inhibitor activity that was based on the observation that ovarian cytosol added to an exogenous catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase caused a time-dependent and ovarian cytosol protein concentration-dependent inhibition of exogenous catalytic subunit phosphotransferase activity. The present studies were conducted to evaluate the basis for this catalytic subunit inhibitor present in soluble rat ovarian extracts of prepubertal-aged rats. This inhibitor activity was absent from cytosol extracts of rat corpora lutea, rat liver, rabbit follicles, and rabbit corpora lutea. Inhibitor activity present in rat ovarian cytosol was not attributable to insufficient levels of the phosphorylation substrate Kemptide. Inhibitor activity was also not related to the presence of the large amount of catalytic subunit-free regulatory subunit of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase present in ovarian extracts of late juvenile-aged rats. Inhibitor activity, however, did correlate with an endogenous adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activity that reduced assay ATP concentrations below levels needed to accurately measure phosphotransferase activity, despite the presence of sodium fluoride (an ATPase inhibitor) and ATP concentrations 5- to 15-fold greater than the Km of the kinase for ATP.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

A synthetic peptide of 18 amino acids corresponding to the inhibitory domain of the heat-stable protein kinase inhibitor was synthesized and shown to inhibit both the C alpha and C beta isoforms of the catalytic (C) subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Extracts from cells transfected with expression vectors coding for the C alpha or the C beta isoform of the C subunit required 200 nM protein kinase inhibitor peptide for half-maximal inhibition of kinase activity in extracts from these cells. An affinity column was constructed using this synthetic peptide, and the column was incubated with protein extracts from cells overexpressing C alpha or C beta. Elution of the affinity column with arginine allowed single step isolation of purified C alpha and C beta subunits. The C alpha and C beta proteins were enriched 200-400-fold from cellular extracts by this single step of affinity chromatography. No residual inhibitory peptide activity could be detected in the purified protein. The purified C subunit isoforms were used to demonstrate preferential antibody reactivity with the C alpha isoform by Western blot analysis. Furthermore, preliminary characterization showed both isoforms have similar apparent Km values for ATP (4 microM) and for Kemptide (5.6 microM). These results demonstrate that a combination of affinity chromatography employing peptides derived from the heat-stable protein kinase inhibitor protein and the use of cells overexpressing C subunit related proteins may be an effective means for purification and characterization of the C subunit isoforms. Furthermore, this method of purification may be applicable to other kinases which are known to be specifically inhibited by small peptides.  相似文献

Using an anti-yeast regulatory subunit antibody and the synthetic peptide Kemptide as specific substrate we show in this work that purified preparations of yeast plasma membrane have an associated form of the regulatory subunit and cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity. Treatment of the plasma membrane "in vitro" with 1 microM cAMP releases cAMP-independent protein kinase activity while regulatory subunit remains on the membrane as revealed by immunoblotting. Incubation of the plasma membrane with [gamma-32P]ATP results in the phosphorylation of the regulatory subunit.  相似文献

The kinetic mechanism of pyruvate phosphate dikinase (PPDK) from Bacteroides symbiosus was investigated with several different kinetic diagnostics. Initial velocity patterns were intersecting for AMP/PPi and ATP/Pi substrate pairs and parallel for all other substrate pairs. PPDK was shown to catalyze [14C]pyruvate in equilibrium phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) exchange in the absence of cosubstrates, [14C]AMP in equilibrium ATP exchange in the presence of Pi/PPi but not in their absence, and [32P]Pi in equilibrium PPi exchange in the presence of ATP/AMP but not in their absence. The enzyme was also shown, by using [alpha beta-18O, beta, beta-18O2]ATP and [beta gamma-18O, gamma, gamma, gamma-18O3]ATP and 31P NMR techniques, to catalyze exchange in ATP between the alpha beta-bridge oxygen and the alpha-P nonbridge oxygen and also between the beta gamma-bridge oxygen and the beta-P nonbridge oxygen. The exchanges were catalyzed by PPDK in the presence of Pi but not in its absence. These results were interpreted to support a bi(ATP,Pi) bi(AMP,PPi) uni(pyruvate) uni(PEP) mechanism. AMP and Pi binding order was examined by carrying out dead-end inhibition studies. The dead-end inhibitor adenosine 5'-monophosphorothioate (AMPS) was found to be competitive vs AMP, noncompetitive vs PPi, and uncompetitive vs PEP. The dead-end inhibitor imidodiphosphate (PNP) was found to be competitive vs PPi, uncompetitive vs AMP, and uncompetitive vs PEP. These results showed that AMP binds before PPi. The ATP and Pi binding order was studied by carrying out inhibition, positional isotope exchange, and alternate substrate studies.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

The active site of the mammalian cAMP-dependent protein kinase catalytic subunit (C-subunit) has a cluster of nonconserved acidic residues-Glu127, Glu170, Glu203, Glu230, and Asp241-that are crucial for substrate recognition and binding. Studies have shown that the Glu230 to Gln mutant (E230Q) of the enzyme has physical properties similar to the wild-type enzyme and has decreased affinity for a short peptide substrate, Kemptide. However, recent experiments intended to crystallize ternary complex of the E230Q mutant with MgATP and protein kinase inhibitor (PKI) could only obtain crystals of the apo-enzyme of E230Q mutant. To deduce the possible mechanism that prevented ternary complex formation, we used the relaxed-complex method (Lin, J.-H., et al. J Am Chem Soc 2002, 24, 5632-5633) to study PKI binding to the E230Q mutant C-subunit. In the E230Q mutant, we observed local structural changes of the peptide binding site that correlated closely to the reduced PKI affinity. The structural changes occurred in the F-to-G helix loop and appeared to hinder PKI binding. Reduced electrostatic potential repulsion among Asp241 from the helix loop section and the other acidic residues in the peptide binding site appear to be responsible for the structural change.  相似文献

A mute isoenzyme of type II cAMP-dependent protein kinase from rat muscle has been reported that is released from the regulatory subunit by cAMP but remains inactive until combination with heat- and acid-stable modulator has occurred. This enzyme has now been obtained in isolation free of the normal catalytic subunit using affinity chromatography with both an ATP analog (Blue Dextran/Sepharose) and a protein substrate analog (Kemptide/CH-Sepharose). Separation can be effected in both cases before activation of the mute enzyme. Affinity of the mute enzyme for Blue Dextran--a ligand specific for the dinucleotide fold in this kinase--is somewhat higher than that of the normal enzyme. Conversely, before reaction with the modulatory protein the mute enzyme will not bind at all to Kemptide/CH-Sepharose, where the normal enzyme elutes at 50 mM KCl. When pretreated with the modulatory protein and so activated, mute enzyme binds to Kemptide with a very high affinity and can only be eluted using a natural substrate (phosphorylase kinase), up to 500 mM salt being ineffective. The modulator thus appears to act through alteration of the protein substrate binding site on the enzyme.  相似文献

The heptapeptide Leu-Arg-Arg-Ala-Ser-Leu-Gly (Kemptide) is a synthetic construct of a substrate for cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PK). In this work we show that Kemptide has all the properties of a cytophilic substrate, i.e. it is a molecule preserving cell membrane intactness when added to cultured cells. Kemptide thus satisfies the prerequisites for employment in assays for cell surface-located ecto-PK activity. Different types of intact cells catalyze the phosphorylation of Kemptide in the presence of extracellular ATP and cAMP with Km values of 3-4 microM for Kemptide. Kemptide phosphorylation was influenced by PKI, the inhibitory protein specific for cAMP-PK. The results of comparative experiments with intact cells and with cell extracts demonstrate the ectoenzyme nature of this cAMP-PK. Further, the possibility was ruled out of a transfer of enzyme activity from damaged cells to the surface of intact cells. The anchorage of the surface cAMP-PK activity to the plasma membrane appears to be relatively stable since (i) cell supernatants, obtained after preincubation of intact cells with cAMP or Kemptide, did not show Kemptide phosphorylation, and (ii) the cAMP-dependent PK activity remained with cells even after five consecutive washes with cAMP or Kemptide. This is in contrast to the ecto-cAMP-independent phosvitin/casein type PK (Kübler, D., Pyerin, W., Burow, E., and Kinzel, V. (1983) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 80, 4021-4025) which is released from intact cells through the addition of substrate. Data are presented which show that both ectokinase activities are exhibited independently. In conjunction with published evidence for an active export of cAMP from cells as well as for the appearance of extracellular ATP the demonstration of an ecto-cAMP-PK further supports the potential of PK for intercellular regulation. The potential of ecto-cAMP-PK is demonstrated by its ability to phosphorylate biologically active forms of atrial natriuretic peptide, the atrial natriuretic peptide, which possesses the specific sequence for a cAMP-PK-catalyzed phosphorylation.  相似文献

The kinetic reaction mechanism of the type II calmodulin-dependent protein kinase was studied by using its constitutively active kinase domain. Lacking regulatory features, the catalytic domain simplified data collection, analysis, and interpretation. To further facilitate this study, a synthetic peptide was used as the kinase substrate. Initial velocity measurements of the forward reaction were consistent with a sequential mechanism. The patterns of product and dead-end inhibition studies best fit an ordered Bi Bi kinetic mechanism with ATP binding first to the enzyme, followed by binding of the peptide substrate. Initial-rate patterns of the reverse reaction of the kinase suggested a rapid-equilibrium mechanism with obligatory ordered binding of ADP prior to the phosphopeptide substrate; however, this apparent rapid-equilibrium ordered mechanism was contrary to the observed inhibition by the phosphopeptide which is not supposed to bind to the kinase in the absence of ADP. Inspection of product inhibition patterns of the phosphopeptide with both ATP and peptide revealed that an ordered Bi Bi mechanism can show initial-rate patterns of a rapid-equilibrium ordered system when a Michaelis constant for phosphopeptide, Kip, is large relative to the concentration of phosphopeptide used. Thus, the results of this study show an ordered Bi Bi mechanism with nucleotide binding first in both directions of the kinase reaction. All the kinetic constants in the forward and reverse directions and the Keq of the kinase reaction are reported herein. To provide theoretical bases and diagnostic aid for mechanisms that can give rise to typical rapid-equilibrium ordered kinetic patterns, a discussion on various sequential cases is presented in the Appendix.  相似文献

For optimal activity the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase requires a phosphate on Thr-197. This phosphate anchors the activation loop in the proper conformation and contributes to catalytic efficiency by enhancing the phosphoryl transfer rate and increasing the affinity for ATP (1). The crystal structure of the catalytic subunit bound to ATP, and the inhibitor peptide, IP20, highlights the contacts made by the Thr-197 phosphate as well as the role adjacent residues play in contacting the substrate peptide. Glu-203 and Tyr-204 interact with arginines in the consensus sequence of PKA substrates at the P-6 and P-2 positions, respectively. To assess the contribution that each residue makes to peptide recognition, the kinetic properties of three mutant proteins (E203A, Y204A, and Y204F) were monitored using multiple peptide substrates. The canonical peptide substrate, Kemptide, as well as a longer 9-residue peptide and corresponding peptides with alanine substitutions at the P-6 and P-2 positions were used. While the effect of Glu-203 is more localized to the P-6 site, Tyr-204 contributes to global peptide recognition. An aromatic hydrophobic residue is essential for optimal peptide recognition and is conserved throughout the protein kinase family.  相似文献

Fluorescence intensity and anisotropy measurements using the fluorescent adenosine cyclic 3',5'-phosphate (cAMP) analogue 1,N6-ethenoadenosine cyclic 3',5'-phosphate (epsilon-cAMP) are sensitive to the dissociation of epsilon-cAMP which occurs when either the type I or the type II regulatory subunit (RI or RII) of cAMP-dependent protein kinase associates with the catalytic subunit. Studies using epsilon-cAMP show that MgATP has opposite effects on the reconstitution of both types of protein kinase: MgATP strongly stabilizes the type I holoenzyme while it slightly destabilizes the type II holoenzyme. The synthetic substrate Kemptide has a small inhibitory effect on the reconstitution of both holoenzymes when tested at 10 microM concentration. The protein kinase inhibitor has a larger effect which is especially pronounced in the reassociation of the type I enzyme. The diminished relative ability of the type I regulatory subunit to compete with the protein kinase inhibitor suggests that the combined effects of the two opposing equilibria (epsilon-cAMP and catalytic subunit binding) are different for the two types of regulatory subunits. Displacement experiments show that cAMP and epsilon-cAMP bind about equally well to the type I subunit. Slow conformational changes accompanying the binding of epsilon-cAMP by both regulatory subunits are greatly accelerated with the holoenzymes, suggesting that dissociation of the holoenzymes occurs via ternary complexes. The time courses of epsilon-cAMP binding also show the heterogeneity of binding characteristics of RII. The 37 000-dalton fragment of type II subunit retains the epsilon-cAMP binding properties of the native subunit. However, only a fraction of the fragment preparation (approximately 32% estimated from sedimentation measurements) binds the catalytic subunit well, suggesting heterogeneity of cleavage.  相似文献

The conversion of a peptide substrate to a potent inhibitor by chemical modification is a promising approach in the development of inhibitors for protein tyrosine kinases. N-acylation of the synthetic peptide substrate NH2-Glu-Phe-Leu-Tyr-Gly-Val-Phe-Asp-CONH2 (EFLYGVFD) resulted in synergistic inhibition of Src protein kinase activity that was greater than the inhibition by either free peptide and/or free acyl group. Synergistic inhibition was dependent upon the peptide sequence and the length of the acyl chain. The minimum length of the fatty acyl chain to synergistically inhibit Src was a lauryl (C11H23CO) group. N-myristoylated EFLYGVFD (myr-EFLYGVFD) inhibited the phosphorylation of poly E4Y by Src with an apparent Ki of 3 microm, whereas EFLYGVFD and myristic acid inhibited with Ki values of 260 and 35 microm, respectively. The nonacylated EFLYGVFD was a substrate for Src with Km and Vmax values of 100 microm and 400 nmol/min/mg protein, respectively. However, upon myristoylation, the peptide was no longer a substrate for Src. Both the acylated and non-acylated peptides were competitive inhibitors against the substrate poly E4Y. The non-acylated free peptide showed mixed inhibition against ATP while the myristoylated peptide was competitive against ATP. Myristic acid was uncompetitive against poly E4Y and competitive against ATP. Further analysis indicated that the myristoylated peptide acted as a reversible slow-binding inhibitor with two binding sites on Src. The myristoylated 8-mer peptide was reduced in size to a myristoylated 3-mer without losing the affinity or characteristics of a bisubstrate-type inhibitor. The conversion of a classical reversible inhibitor to a reversible slow-binding multisubstrate analogue has improved the potency of inhibition by the peptide.  相似文献
