Abstract: | The influence of ATP on complex formation of phosphorylase kinase (PhK) with glycogen in the presence of Ca(2+) and Mg(2+) has been studied. The initial rate of complex formation decreases with increasing ATP concentration, the dependence of the initial rate on the concentration of ATP having a cooperative character. Formation of the complex of PhK with glycogen in the presence of ATP occurs after a lag period, which increases with increasing ATP concentration. The dependence of the initial rate of complex formation (v) on the concentration of non-hydrolyzed ATP analogue, beta,gamma-methylene-ATP, follows the hyperbolic law. A correlation between PhK-glycogen complex formation and (32)P incorporation catalyzed by PhK itself and by the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase has been shown. For ADP (the product and allosteric effector of the PhK reaction) the dependence of v on ADP concentration has a complicated form, probably due to the sequential binding of ADP at two allosteric sites on the beta subunit and the active site on the gamma subunit. |
