Yeast cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. 1983

R Wingender-Drissen

We have purified cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase from the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The purified enzyme was inactive in the absence of cyclic AMP and displayed two protein bands on SDS gel electrophoresis. One was identified as the cAMP-binding protein by chromatography on cAMP-agarose. Mr of the latter was 50 000 while the catalytic subunit had an Mr of 59 000. The enzyme accepted yeast phosphorylase, glycogen synthase and fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase as substrates. No inhibition by the mammalian protein kinase inhibitor was observed.

D011494	Protein Kinases	A family of enzymes that catalyze the conversion of ATP and a protein to ADP and a phosphoprotein.	Protein Kinase,Kinase, Protein,Kinases, Protein
D002352	Carrier Proteins	Proteins that bind or transport specific substances in the blood, within the cell, or across cell membranes.	Binding Proteins,Carrier Protein,Transport Protein,Transport Proteins,Binding Protein,Protein, Carrier,Proteins, Carrier
D002373	Cyclic AMP Receptor Protein	A transcriptional regulator in prokaryotes which, when activated by binding cyclic AMP, acts at several promoters. Cyclic AMP receptor protein was originally identified as a catabolite gene activator protein. It was subsequently shown to regulate several functions unrelated to catabolism, and to be both a negative and a positive regulator of transcription. Cell surface cyclic AMP receptors are not included (CYCLIC AMP RECEPTORS), nor are the eukaryotic cytoplasmic cyclic AMP receptor proteins, which are the regulatory subunits of CYCLIC AMP-DEPENDENT PROTEIN KINASES.
