Abstract
alpha-Crystallin, the major eye lens protein and a member of the small heat-shock protein family, has been shown to protect the aggregation of several proteins and enzymes under denaturing conditions. The region(s) in the denaturing proteins that interact with alpha-crystallin during chaperone action has not been identified. Determination of these sites would explain the wide chaperoning action (promiscuity) of alpha-crystallin. In the present study, using two different methods, we have identified a sequence in yeast alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) that binds to alpha-crystallin during chaperone-like action. The first method involved the incubation of alpha-crystallin with ADH peptides at 48 degrees C for 1 h followed by separation and analysis of bound peptides. In the second method, alpha-crystallin was first derivatized with a photoactive trifunctional cross-linker, sulfosuccinimidyl-2[6-(biotinamido)-2-(p-azidobenzamido)-hexanoamido]ethyl-1,3di-thiopropionate (sulfo-SBED), and then complexed with ADH at 48 degrees C for 1 h in the dark. The complex was photolyzed and digested with protease, and the biotinylated peptide fragments were isolated using an avidin column and then analyzed. The amino acid sequencing and mass spectral analysis revealed the sequence YSGVCHTDLHAWHGDWPLPVK (yeast ADH(40-60)) as the alpha-crystallin binding site in ADH. The interaction was further confirmed by demonstrating complex formation between alpha-crystallin and a synthetic peptide representing the binding site of ADH.

Abstract
Candida albicans EF-2 binds sordarin to a single class of binding sites with K(d) = 1.26 microm. Equimolar mixtures of EF-2 and ribosomes, in the presence of a non-hydrolyzable GTP analog, reveal two classes of high affinity sordarin binding sites with K(d) = 0.7 and 41.5 nm, probably due to the existence of two ribosome populations. Photoaffinity labeling of C. albicans EF-2 in the absence of ribosomes has been performed with [(14)C]GM258383, a photoactivatable sordarin derivative. Labeling is saturable and can be considered specific, because it can be prevented with another sordarin analog. The fragment Gln(224)-Lys(232) has been identified as the modified peptide within the EF-2 sequence, Lys(228) being the residue to which the photoprobe was linked. This fragment is included within the G"-subdomain of EF-2. These results are discussed in the light of the high sordarin specificity toward fungal systems.

Abstract
We have used 8-azidoadenosine 5'-triphosphate (8-N3ATP) to investigate the nucleotide-binding sites on the NrdD subunit of the anaerobic ribonucleotide reductase from T4 phage. Saturation studies revealed two saturable sites for this photoaffinity analog of ATP. One site exhibited half-maximal saturation at approximately 5 microM [gamma-32P]8-N3ATP, whereas the other site required 45 microM. To localize the sites of photoinsertion, photolabeled peptides from tryptic and chymotryptic digests were isolated by immobilized Al3+ affinity chromatography and high performance liquid chromatography and subjected to amino acid sequence and mass spectrometric analyses. The molecular masses of the photolabeled products of cyanogen bromide cleavage were estimated using tricine-SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Overlapping sequence analysis localized the higher affinity site to the region corresponding to residues 289-291 and the other site to the region corresponding to residues 147-160. Site-directed mutagenesis of Cys290, a residue conserved in all known class III reductases, resulted in a protein that exhibited less than 10% of wild type enzymatic activity. These observations indicate that Cys290 may reside in or near the active site. High performance liquid chromatography analysis revealed that photoinsertion of [gamma-32P]8-N3ATP into the site corresponding to residues 147-160 was almost completely abolished when 100 microM dATP, dGTP, or dTTP was included in the photolabeling reaction mixture, whereas 100 microM ATP, GTP, CTP, or dCTP had virtually no effect. Based on these nucleotide binding properties, we conclude that this site is an allosteric site analogous to the one that has been shown to regulate substrate specificity of other ribonucleotide reductases. There was no evidence for a second allosteric nucleotide-binding site as observed in the anaerobic ribonucleotide reductase from Escherichia coli.

Abstract
Binding of eIF-4E to the 5' m7G cap structure of eukaryotic mRNA signals the initiation of protein synthesis. In order to investigate the molecular basis for this recognition, photoaffinity labeling with [gamma-32P]8-N3GTP was used in binding site studies of human recombinant cap binding protein eIF-4E. Competitive inhibition of this cap analogue by m7GTP and capped mRNA indicated probe specificity for interaction at the protein binding site. Saturation of the binding site with [gamma-32P]8-N3GTP further demonstrated the selectivity of photoinsertion. Aluminum (III)-chelate chromatography and reverse-phase HPLC were used to isolate the binding site peptide resulting from digestion of photolabeled eIF-4E with modified trypsin. Amino acid sequencing identified the binding domain as the region containing the sequence Trp 113-Arg 122.Lys 119 was not identified in sequencing analysis nor was it cleaved by trypsin. These results indicate that Lys 119 is the residue directly modified by photoinsertion of [gamma-32P]8-N3GTP. A detailed understanding of eIF-4E.m7G mRNA cap interactions may lead the way to regulating this essential protein-RNA interaction for specific mRNA in vivo.

Abstract
Elongation factor 2 (eEF-2) can interact not only with guanylic nucleotides but also with adenylic ones, as was shown by intrinsic fluorescence quenching studies [Sontag, B., Reboud, A.M., Divita, G., Di Pietro, A., Guillot, D. & Reboud, J.P. (1993) Biochemistry 32, 1976-1980]. Here we studied sites of these interactions by using photoactivable 8-azido-[gamma-32P]GTP and 8-azido-[gamma-32P]ATP. Photoincorporation of the radioactive GTP derivative into eEF-2 was prevented by the previous addition of GTP and GDP. The addition of adenylic nucleotides (ATP, ADP) and some adenylic derivatives [NAD+, NADH,poly(A)] decreased the photoincorporation by only 40% at most. However, photoincorporation of the radioactive ATP derivative was prevented by the previous addition not only of adenylic compounds [ATP, ADP, NAD+, NADH, poly(A)] but also of GTP and GDP. Photoincorporation of radioactive nucleotide derivatives was not decreased by the addition of other nucleotidic compounds [UTP, poly(U), ITP, NADP+, NADPH]. ATP and GTP acted as non-competitive inhibitors of the photoincorporation of 8-azido-[gamma-32P]GTP and 8-azido-[gamma-32P]ATP, respectively. eEF-2 photolabeled with these radioactive nucleotide derivatives was submitted to trypsin digestion under different conditions and the labeled peptidic fragments identified after HPLC purification and gel electrophoresis by N-terminal sequencing. An octapeptide, Y264FDPANGK271, was the only peptide photolabeled with 8-azido-[gamma-32P]GTP whereas a N-terminal fragment of about 7 kDa was the only one photolabeled with 8-azido-[gamma-32P]ATP. The different results support the hypothesis that guanylic and adenylic nucleotides do not interact with the same site of eEF-2.

Abstract
The active site of rat liver S-adenosylmethionine synthetase was studied using 8-azido ATP, a photolabile analogue of ATP. Both forms of the enzyme, tetramer and dimer, could be labelled by using concentrations of the analogue similar to the KmATP values for each form, 350 microM and 1 mM respectively. Labelling of both S-adenosylmethionine synthetase forms with 8-azido [alpha-32P]ATP, followed by tryptic digestion and purification by HPLC, afforded one specifically labelled peptide in each case. Identification of the labelled peptide by amino acid analysis and peptide sequencing, and comparison with the enzyme sequence, indicated that the same peptide (267-286) was modified in both enzyme forms. The results are discussed on the basis of the high degree of similarity that this peptide shows in all the known S-adenosylmethionine synthetase sequences.

Abstract
Nevirapine (BI-RG-587) is a potent inhibitor of the polymerase activity of reverse transcriptase of human immunodeficiency virus type-1. Nevirapine, as well as several other non-nucleoside compounds of various structural classes, bind strongly at a site which includes tyrosines 181 and 188 of the p66 subunit of reverse transcriptase. The chromatography which was utilized to explore this binding site is described. BI-RH-448 and BI-RJ-70, two tritiated photoaffinity azido analogues of nevirapine, are each crosslinked to reverse transcriptase. The use of several HPLC-based techniques employing different modes of detection makes it possible to demonstrate a dramatic difference between the two azido analogues in crosslinking behavior. In particular, by comparing HPLC tryptic peptide maps of the photoadducts formed between reverse transcriptase and each azido analogue, it can be shown that crosslinking with BI-RJ-70 but not with BI-RH-448 is more localized, stable, and hence exploitable for the identification of the specifically bonded amino acid residue(s). In addition, comparison of the tryptic maps also makes it feasible to assess which rings of the nevirapine structure are proximal or distal to amino acid side chains of reverse transcriptase. Finally, another feature of the HPLC peptide maps is the application of on-line detection by second order derivative UV absorbance spectroscopy to identify the crosslinked amino acid residue.

Abstract
Sensitivity to dihydropyridines (DHPs) is a distinct characteristic that differentiates L-type Ca2+ channels from T-, N-, and P-type Ca2+ channels. To identify regions necessary for the functional effects of DHPs, chimeric Ca2+ channels were constructed in which portions of motif III or motif IV of a DHP-insensitive brain Ca2+ channel, BI-2, were introduced into the DHP-sensitive cardiac L-type Ca2+ channel. The resultant chimeric Ca2+ channels were expressed in Xenopus oocytes, and the effects of a DHP agonist and antagonist were studied. The results show that the linker region between S5 and S6 in motif IV of the L-type Ca2+ channel is a major site for DHP action. The DHP agonist and antagonist molecules interact with distinct sites on the alpha 1 subunit of the L-type Ca2+ channel. The data further show that the SS2-S6 region of motif III is not involved in DHP action but may be an important structural component of inactivation.

Abstract
V region nucleotide sequences were determined by mRNA sequencing for 11 monoclonal anti-morphine antibodies with slightly different specificities for morphine-related opiates. The VH region nucleotide sequences of the antibodies MOR8, MOR33, MOR35, MOR44, MOR83, and MOR76 were classified into the VH-5 (7183) family, while the antibodies MOR39, MOR115, MOR131, MOR158 and MOR180 used VH-1 (J558) family genes. MOR39, MOR115 and MOR131 used the V lambda-1 gene for their L chain V region. MOR158 and MOR180 used the Vk-10 gene. MOR8, MOR33, OR35, MOR44, MOR76 and MOR83 used VK-21D. The antibody sets MOR158 and MOR180; MOR39 and MOR131; and MOR8, MOR33, MOR35, MOR44, MOR76 and MOR83 appeared to be somatic mutants derived from the same clones since they showed the same VH/VL usage and V(D)J recombination pattern. The pH-reactivity profiles for these antibodies revealed that the binding of morphine to the antibodies is highly dependent on the pH value of the assay solution, suggesting the importance of the electrostatic interaction between the positive charge of morphine and the negative charges at or near the combining sites. Direct UV-photoaffinity labeling with 3H-morphine was carried out in order to estimate the orientation of morphine in the combining sites. The H chains were preferentially labeled in MOR8, MOR33, MOR35, MOR76, and MOR83, whereas most of the crosslinked hapten was found in the L chains in MOR39, MOR115, MOR131, MOR158 and MOR180. Thus, these 11 antibodies were classified into two types in terms of reactivity in the photoaffinity labeling.

Abstract
Glucagon, a peptide hormone synthesized and secreted by alpha islet cells, regulates glucose homeostasis by several mechanisms. Using [gamma 32P]8N3GTP, a proven photoaffinity probe for GTP, a specific nucleotide binding site on human glucagon was detected that showed preference for GTP. Half-maximal saturation of photoinsertion into the polypeptide hormone was at 8-12 microM with either [alpha 32P]8N3GTP or [gamma 32P]8N3GTP. GTP protected photolabeling with an apparent kd of 15 microM, whereas ATP was less effective as a protector, exhibiting an apparent kd of about 30 microM. Maximal protection by GTP and ATP was over 90%. UTP, CTP, GDP, ADP, GMP, AMP, guanosine, adenosine, guanine, and adenine were much less effective protectors, indicating that binding is specific for purine nucleoside triphosphates, particularly GTP. Mg2+ at 150 microM enhanced photoinsertion (twofold), whereas at 2-10 mM, it inhibited photoinsertion. Both Ca2+ and Zn2+ at 0.2 mM decreased photoinsertion about 45%. Purification of chymotryptic and tryptic digests of photolabeled glucagon by reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) revealed that the N-terminal peptide, HSQGTF, was the only peptide region covalently photomodified by [32P]8N3GTP. GTP, if present during photolysis, greatly reduced both photoinsertion into glucagon and the amount of radiolabeled peptide recovered on HPLC. The specificity of binding to the N-terminal region is suggestive of a physiological role for a glucagon-GTP complex in the mechanism of action of this hormone.
