Polymeric structure of the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase from the dimorphic fungus Mucor rouxii and purification of its catalytic subunit

The polymeric structure of the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (E.C.2.7.1.37) from the dimorphic fungus Mucor rouxii was analyzed through studies of gel filtration and sucrose gradient centrifugation of the holoenzyme and its subunits and by photoaffinity labeling of the regulatory subunit. It w...

description The polymeric structure of the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (E.C.2.7.1.37) from the dimorphic fungus Mucor rouxii was analyzed through studies of gel filtration and sucrose gradient centrifugation of the holoenzyme and its subunits and by photoaffinity labeling of the regulatory subunit. It was demonstrated that it is a tetramer composed by two regulatory subunits (R) of mol. wt. 75 000 and two catalytic subunits (C) of mol. wt. 41 000 forming a holoenzyme R2C2 of mol. wt. 242 000. Frictional coefficients of 1.55 and 1.62 for the holoenzyme and for the regulatory dimer, respectively, indicate a significant degree of dimensional asymmetry in both molecules. A procedure for the purification of the catalytic subunit of the kinase is presented. The holoenzyme could be bound to a cyclic AMP-agarose column and the catalytic subunit could be eluted by 0.5 M NaCl, well resolved from the bulk of protein.
