Binding of cyclic nucleotide to or autophosphorylation of cGMP-dependent protein kinase (PKG) activates this kinase, but the molecular mechanism of activation for either process is unknown. Activation of PKG by cGMP binding produces a conformational change in the enzyme (Chu, D.-M., Corbin, J. D., Grimes, K. A., and Francis, S. H. (1997) J. Biol. Chem. 272, 31922-31928; Zhao, J., Trewhella, J., Corbin, J., Francis, S., Mitchell, R., Brushia, R., and Walsh, D. (1997) J. Biol. Chem. 272, 39129-31936). In the present studies, activation of type Ibeta PKG by either autophosphorylation or cGMP-binding alone causes (i) an electronegative charge shift on ion exchange chromatography, (ii) a similar increase ( approximately 3.5 A) in the Stokes radius as determined by gel filtration chromatography, and (iii) a similar decrease in the mobility of the enzyme on native gel electrophoresis. Consistent with these results, cGMP binding increases the rate of phosphoprotein phosphatase-1 catalyzed dephosphorylation of PKG which is autophosphorylated only at Ser-63 (not activated); however, dephosphorylation of PKG that is highly autophosphorylated (activated) is not stimulated by cGMP. The combined results suggest that activation of PKG by either autophosphorylation or cGMP binding alone produces a similar apparent elongation of the enzyme, implying that either process activates the enzyme by a similar molecular mechanism.
