Effect of nucleotide on the binding of N,N'-p-phenylenedimaleimide-modified S-1 to unregulated and regulated actin.
In our previous study [Chalovich, J. M., Greene, L. E., & Eisenberg, E. (1983) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 80, 4909-4913], myosin subfragment 1 that was modified by having its two reactive thiol groups cross-linked by N,N'-p-phenylenedimaleimide (pPDM) was found to resemble the myosin subfragment 1-adenosine 5'-triphosphate (S-1.ATP) complex in its interaction with actin. In the present study, we examined the effect of actin on adenosine 5'-diphosphate (ADP) trapped at the active site of pPDM.S-1. Our results indicate first that, in the presence of actin, ADP is no longer trapped at the active site but exchanges rapidly with free nucleotide. Different pPDM.S-1.nucleotide complexes were then formed by exchanging nucleotide into the active site of pPDM.S-1 in the presence of actin. The binding of pPDM.S-1.ATP or pPDM.S-1.PPi to actin is virtually identical with that of unmodified S-1 in the presence of ATP. Specifically, at mu = 18 mM, 25 degrees C, pPDM.S-1.ATP or pPDM.S-1.PPi binds to unregulated actin with the same affinity as does S-1.ATP, and this binding does not appear to be affected by troponin-tropomyosin. On the other hand, pPDM.S-1.ADP and pPDM.S-1 with no bound nucleotide both show a small, but significant, difference between their binding to actin and the binding of S-1.ATP; pPDM.S-1 and pPDM.S-1.ADP both bind about 2- to 3-fold more strongly to unregulated actin than does S-1.ATP.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
