title: Interaction of DnaK with ATP: binding, hydrolysis and Ca+2-stimulated autophosphorylation.
abstract: The autophosphorylation of DnaK from Escherichia coli using ATP as phosphate donor is markedly stimulated by Ca+2 and to a lesser degree by Mn+2. Mg+2 and other divalent ions are without effect in this reaction. Lanthanum, an agonist/antagonist of Ca+2, is also effective in stimulating the autophosphorylation. In contrast, Mg+2 but not Ca+2, markedly stimulates the hydrolysis of ATP catalyzed by DnaK. Also at 0 degrees, ATP forms a stable complex with DnaK without hydrolysis that is independent of cations. About 15% of the DnaK in E. coli is associated with membrane vesicles where it also can be phosphorylated in the presence of Ca+2.
