Abstract
A change in the conformation of the active site of scallop myosin under the influence of regulatory amounts of Ca2+ has been identified by use of the ADP photoaffinity analog 2-[(4-azido-2-nitrophenyl)amino]ethyl diphosphate (NANDP). NANDP, trapped at the active site with Mn2+ and vanadate, photolabeled preferentially Arg-128 of the heavy chain in the absence of added Mg2+ and Ca2+ [Kerwin, B. & Yount, R. (1992) Bioconjugate Chem. 3, 328-336]. However, addition of 2 mM Mg2+ and regulatory amounts of Ca2+ (0.01-1 microM) shifted the predominant labeling to Cys-198 of the heavy chain in a Ca(2+)-dependent manner. This Ca(2+)-dependent change in the photolabeling pattern was absent when the regulatory light chains were removed or when the unregulated head (subfragment 1) was examined under similar conditions. These results demonstrate that both Arg-128 and Cys-198 are part of the purine binding site which undergoes a conformational change in response to Ca2+ binding to the regulatory domain.
