title: The regulation of type 7 adenylyl cyclase by its C1b region and Escherichia coli peptidylprolyl isomerase, SlyD.
abstract: Mammalian membrane-bound adenylyl cyclase consists of two highly conserved cytoplasmic domains (C1a and C2a) separated by a less conserved connecting region, C1b, and one of two transmembrane domains, M2. The C1a and C2a domains form a catalytic core that can be stimulated by forskolin and the stimulatory G protein subunit alpha (Galpha(s)). In this study, we analyzed the regulation of type 7 adenylyl cyclase (AC7) by C1b. The C1a, C1b, and C2a domains of AC7 were purified separately. Escherichia coli SlyD protein, a cis-trans peptidylprolyl isomerase (PPIase), copurifies with AC7 C1b (7C1b). SlyD protein can inhibit the Galpha(s)- and/or forskolin-activated activity of both soluble and membrane-bound AC7. Mutant forms of SlyD with reduced PPIase activity are less potent in the inhibition of AC7 activity. Interestingly, different isoforms of mammalian membrane-bound adenylyl cyclase can be either inhibited or stimulated by SlyD protein, raising the possibility that mammalian PPIase may regulate enzymatic activity of mammalian adenylyl cyclase. Purified 7C1b-SlyD complex has a greater inhibitory effect on AC7 activity than SlyD alone. This inhibition by 7C1b is abolished in a 7C1b mutant in which a conserved glutamic acid (amino acid residue 582) is changed to alanine. Inhibition of adenylyl cyclase activity by 7C1b is further confirmed by using 7C1b purified from an E. coli slyD-deficient strain. This inhibitory activity of AC7 is also observed with the 28-mer peptides derived from a region of C1b conserved in AC7 and AC2 but is not observed with a peptide derived from the corresponding region of AC6. This inhibitory activity exhibited by the C1b domain may result from the interaction of 7C1b with 7C1a and 7C2a and may serve to hold AC7 in the basal nonstimulated state.
