Identification of peptides involved in S-adenosylmethionine binding in the EcoRI DNA methylase. Photoaffinity laveling with 8-azido-S-adenosylmethionine.
The Mr 38,050 monomeric EcoRI DNA methylase is part of a bacterial restriction-modification system. The methylase transfers the methyl group from S-adenosylmethionine (AdoMet) to the second adenine in the double-stranded DNA sequence 5'-GAATTC-3'. We have used the radiolabeled photoaffinity analog 8-azido-S-adenosylmethionine (8-N3-AdoMet) to identify peptides at the AdoMet binding site in the ...
متن کاملPhotoaffinity labeling of the Klenow fragment with 8-azido-dATP.
The photoaffinity compound 8-azido-dATP was used as a probe for the deoxyribonucleoside triphosphate-binding site of the large fragment of DNA polymerase I. Azido-dATP specifically modified a saturable binding site within the Klenow fragment, and each of the four natural deoxyribonucleoside triphosphate substrates competed with labeling at this site in proportion to its binding constant, as pre...
متن کاملPhotoaffinity labeling of rotavirus VP1 with 8-azido-ATP: identification of the viral RNA polymerase.
Rotavirus single-shelled particles have several enzymatic activities that are involved with the synthesis of capped mRNAs both in vivo and in vitro. Because single-shelled particles must be structurally intact to carry out transcription, it has proven to be difficult to identify the protein within such particles that possesses associated RNA polymerase activity. One approach for characterizing ...
متن کاملPhotoaffinity labeling of rat liver carbamoyl phosphate synthetase I by 8-azido-ATP.
8-Azido-ATP has been found to serve as a photoaffinity label for two distinct ATP sites on rat liver carbamoyl phosphate synthetase I and to allow preliminary localization of these sites. In the dark, 8-azido-ATP acted as a competitive inhibitor with respect to ATP. Ultraviolet irradiation of carbamoyl phosphate synthetase I in the presence of 8-azido-ATP led to an irreversible loss of activity...
متن کاملPhotoaffinity labeling of the mitochondrial oxoglutarate carrier by azido-phthalonate.
The effect of azido-phthalonate, a photoreactive analogue of oxoglutarate, on the transport of oxoglutarate was investigated in proteoliposomes reconstituted with the purified oxoglutarate carrier. In the dark, azido-phthalonate inhibits the reconstituted oxoglutarate/oxoglutarate exchange in a competitive manner with a Ki of 0.38 mM. Upon photoirradiation, the inhibition of the oxoglutarate ex...
