title: Conformational changes in the vicinity of the N-iodoacetyl-N'-(5-sulfo-1-naphthyl)ethylenediamine attached to the specific thiol of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase throughout the catalytic cycle.
abstract: In the previous experiment (Suzuki, H., Obara, M., Kuwayama, H., and Kanazawa, T. (1987) J. Biol. Chem. 262, 15448-15456), the Ca2+-ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles was labeled with N-iodoacetyl-N'-(5-sulfo-1-naphthyl)ethylenediamine without a loss of the catalytic activity. The main labeled site was Cys674. A large monophasic fluorescence drop occurred upon ATP binding to the catalytic site of the Ca2+-activated enzyme in the presence of K+. The present results show that this fluorescence drop is biphasic in the absence of K+. The first and rapid phase of this drop accounts for most of the fluorescence drop. This phase reflects a conformational change in the enzyme.ATP complex. The second and slow phase, being much smaller than the first phase, coincides with phosphoenzyme (EP) isomerization from the ADP-sensitive form to the ADP-insensitive form. This phase disappears when accumulation of ADP-insensitive EP is inhibited by K+ or when EP isomerization is prevented by the N-ethylmaleimide treatment. These results show that this phase reflects a conformational change upon EP isomerization. When free Ca2+ is chelated after EP formation from ATP, the fluorescence intensity is restored to the initial level without Ca2+. This restoration coincides with EP decomposition. This suggests that the fluorescence restoration reflects a conformational change upon hydrolysis of ADP-insensitive EP. This probability is supported by the concurrent occurrence of the Pi-induced fluorescence drop and EP formation from Pi. The results demonstrate that the fluorescence drop upon ATP binding is predominant in the fluorescence change throughout the catalytic cycle.
