Regulation of glutamine synthetase (EC 6.3.1.2) in Escherichia coli is mediated by adenylylation and deadenylylation of the enzyme. The present studies show that one protein is a common component of both the adenylylation and deadenylylation systems. Thus, the ATP:glutamine synthetase adenylyltransferase, which catalyzes adenylylation of glutamine synthetase, and one of the two proteins required for deadenylylation (the P(I) protein) are inseparable by a variety of fractionation procedures. The adenylyltransferase and P(I)-deadenylylating activities behave as a single protein upon filtration through Agarose A 0.5 gel, and during chromatography on DE32 cellulose and hydroxyapatite columns. They migrate as a single protein band during electrophoresis on polyacrylamide gel and have identical susceptibilities to heat inactivation. These data indicate that the adenylyltransferase and the P(I)-deadenylylation activity are associated with the same protein complex.
大肠杆菌中谷氨酰胺合成酶(EC 6.3.1.2)的调节是由该酶的腺苷酰化和去腺苷酰化介导的。目前的研究表明,一种蛋白质是腺苷酰化和去腺苷酰化系统的共同组成部分。因此,催化谷氨酰胺合成酶腺苷酰化的ATP:谷氨酰胺合成酶腺苷酰转移酶,以及去腺苷酰化所需的两种蛋白质之一(P(I)蛋白),通过各种分级分离程序都无法分开。腺苷酰转移酶和P(I)去腺苷酰化活性在通过琼脂糖A 0.5凝胶过滤时,以及在DE32纤维素和羟基磷灰石柱色谱过程中,表现为单一蛋白质。它们在聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳中迁移为单一蛋白带,并且对热失活具有相同的敏感性。这些数据表明,腺苷酰转移酶和P(I)去腺苷酰化活性与同一蛋白质复合物相关。
