Abstract
Three kinds of ATP analogues were synthesized. These ATP analogues can be classified into two conformations, i.e. syn and anti forms with respect to the N-glycosidic bond between adenine and ribose groups of ATP. 3'-O-(N-Methylanthraniloyl)-2-azidoadenosine 5'-triphosphate (MantN2(3)ATP) is recognized as the anti form, as ATP, and the other two, 3'-O-(N-methylanthraniloyl)-8-azidoadenosine 5'-triphosphate (MantN8(3)ATP) and 1,N6-etheno-8-azidoadenosine 5'-triphosphate (epsilon N8(3)ATP) are both syn forms. Mant and etheno groups are both fluorescent which allows detection of their binding to proteins. The photochemical binding of azido groups in ATP analogues to the myosin active site, examined in the presence and absence of ATP, showed that all the analogues bound to the site of myosin ATPase. These analogues also acted as substrates of the ATPase and were hydrolyzed in the active site, as judged by competitive inhibition of the ATPase and by their ATPase activities. Of these analogues, MantN2(3)ATP is very similar to ATP in divalent-cation dependence of its hydrolysis rate and in its ability to trap ADP in the active site with vanadate, while the other two are different from ATP in these respects. The photochemical binding sites of ATP analogues were localized by gel electrophoresis of trypsinized myosin ATPase with photocross-linked ATP analogues and/or by isolating the modified peptides. MantN2(3)ATP was found in the 23-kDa fragment which has a structure common to ATP-binding proteins, i.e. Gly-Xaa-Xaa-Gly-Xaa-Gly-Lys-Thr. Mant N8(3)ATP was found in a region of the 20-kDa fragment where actin is reported to attach.
