Cyclic AMP- and (Rp)-cAMPS-induced conformational changes in a complex of the catalytic and regulatory (RI{alpha}) subunits of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase.

ABSTRACT: We took a discovery approach to explore the actions of cAMP and two of its analogs, one a cAMP mimic ((S(p))-adenosine cyclic 3':5'-monophosphorothioate ((S(p))-cAMPS)) and the other a diastereoisomeric antagonist ((R(p))-cAMPS), on a model system of the type Iα cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase holoenzyme, RIα(91-244)·C-subunit, by using fluorescence spectroscopy and amide H/(2)H exchange mass spectrometry. Specifically, for the fluorescence experiments, fluorescein maleimide was conjugated to three cysteine single residue substitution mutants, R92C, T104C, and R239C, of RIα(91-244), and the effects of cAMP, (S(p))-cAMPS, and (R(p))-cAMPS on the kinetics of R-C binding and the time-resolved anisotropy of the reporter group at each conjugation site were measured. For the amide exchange e
