Dimeric structure of rat skeletal muscle AMP-deaminase subunit.
AMP-deaminase from rat skeletal muscle was purified by affinity chromatography on phosphocellulose and gel-filtration on Sephadex G-200. It was established that disulfide bridges and hydrogen bonds were not essential for stability of enzyme oligomeric structure. The dimeric structure of enzyme subunit with Mr 76 kDa (S1) was detected by means of PAGE in the presence of SDS: besides the S1 there were also exhibited two additional bands with Mr 42 (S2) and 33 (S3) kDa. Repeated SDS-PAGE of S1 has revealed the same three protein bands. These results indicate the possibility of dissociation of S1-subunit into two subunits with close Mr values.
