چکیده

5'-(p-(Fluorosulphonyl)[14C]benzoyl)adenosine (FSBA) was synthesized and used as a probe to study the ATP-binding site of smooth-muscle myosin light-chain kinase (MLCK). FSBA modified both free MLCK and calmodulin/MLCK complex, resulting in inactivation of the kinase activity. Nearly complete protection of the calmodulin/MLCK complex against FSBA modification was obtained by addition of excess ATP whereas MLCK activity alone was lost in a dose-dependent manner even in the presence of excess ATP. These results suggest that FSBA modified ATP-binding sites and ATP-independent sites, and the latter sites are protected by calmodulin binding. The results also suggest that the ATP-binding site is accessible to the nucleotide substrate regardless of calmodulin binding. The FSBA-labelled MLCK was completely proteolysed by alpha-chymotrypsin, and the 14C-labelled peptides were isolated and sequenced. The sequence of the labelled peptide was Ala-Gly-X-Phe, where X is the labelled residue. The sequence was compared with the known MLCK sequence, and the labelled residue was identified as lysine-548, which is located downstream of the GXGXXG motif conserved among ATP-utilizing enzymes.

Selective inhibition of catalytic activity of smooth muscle myosin light chain kinase.

Systematically synthesized derivatives of ML-9, 1-(5-chloronaphthalenesulfonyl)-1H-hexahydro-1,4-diazepine, were found to inhibit both Ca2+-calmodulin-dependent and -independent smooth muscle myosin light chain kinases with a similar concentration dependence, and their inhibitions were of the competitive type with respect to ATP. Moreover, ML-9 as well as ATP or ADP exhibited an effective prote...

The role of myosin light chain kinase phosphorylation in beta-adrenergic relaxation of tracheal smooth muscle.

Myosin light chain kinase from smooth muscle has been shown to be phosphorylated by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, which leads to a decrease in the affinity of the kinase for Ca2+ . calmodulin and, hence, a decrease in enzymatic activity. This event has been proposed as a mechanism for the relaxation of smooth muscle in response to increased intracellular concentrations of cyclic AMP. The...

Protein kinase C enhances myosin light-chain kinase effects on force development and ATPase activity in rat single skinned cardiac cells.

Many neurohormones alter the force of cardiac contraction by variations in the intracellular Ca2+ concentration. alpha 1-Adrenergic and muscarinic stimulations, rather, modify the sensitivity of contractile proteins to Ca(2+)-calmodulin-myosin light-chain kinase (MLCK) complex induces a large increase in Ca2+ sensitivity (0.14 pCa unit) of these easily accessible myofilaments. This increase is ...
