Purification and some properties of a cyclic AMP-binding protein from human erythrocyte membranes. 1982

K Suzuki, and S Suzuki, and T Terao, and T Osawa

A cyclic AMP-binding protein of human erythrocyte membranes was solubilized with 0.3% Triton X-100 in 10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.4) at 4 degrees C, and purified by DEAE-cellulose column chromatography and affinity chromatography on a cyclic AMP derivative-fixed Sepharose 4B column. The purified cyclic AMP-binding protein showed a single band (molecular weight: 49,000) on examination by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and the band was specifically labeled with a photoaffinity analogue of cyclic AMP, 8-N3-cyclic [2-3H]AMP. This protein bound 1.6 mol of cyclic AMP per molecule with an association constant of 3.8 x 10(9) M-1 and the optimum pH for binding was 7.4. The protein inhibited the activity of a purified protein kinase from human erythrocyte membranes [Suzuki, K., Terao, T., & Osawa, T. (1981) J. Biochem. 89, 1--11], while cyclic AMP restored the enzymic activity. The amino acid composition of this protein was different from those of cytoplasmic cyclic AMP-binding proteins. These observations indicate that the cyclic AMP-binding protein purified in this work is the regulatory subunit of a membrane bound cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
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.
