title: A plasma membrane-associated AAA-ATPase from Glycine max.
abstract: An AAA-ATPase (ATPases Associated with a Variety of Cellular Activities) localized to the plasma membrane of soybean (Glycine max) was isolated, partially sequenced and cloned (SBPM AAA-ATPase). The protein with an apparent monomer molecular mass of about 97 kDa was isolated using a combination of anion exchange, preparative SDS-PAGE, reverse phase HPLC, and ATP affinity chromatography. The cDNA for the full-length SBPM AAA-ATPase was cloned by screening an expression library using an antibody against the highly conserved Walker B AAA-ATP-binding motif. Northern blot analysis detected one transcript of approximately 2700 bp. The full-length cDNA sequence was that previously obtained (GenBank Database; U20213) encoding a protein with two copies of the conserved AAA-ATP-binding motif and regions of sequence homology with other AAA-ATPases. Electron microscopic preparations of the recombinant SBPM AAA-ATPase revealed hexamers typically formed by these proteins. The cloned and expressed protein was identical to the protein isolated from the soybean plasma membrane as confirmed using antisera raised to a non-conserved region of the derived protein sequence and by N-terminal sequencing of peptides derived from the isolated protein.
