Determinations for S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM) were performed with the SETD3 preparations (0.04–0.05 µg protein, 5–7 nM), which were incubated for 8 min at 37°C in the reaction mixture containing 5 µM recombinant β-actin and variable concentrations of [1H+3H] SAM (≈320 × 103 cpm). The measurements for β-actin were obtained following a 5 min incubation of SETD3 in the presence of 1 μM concentration of [1H+3H] SAM (100 pmol, ≈300 × 103 cpm). The kinetic parameters of the enzymatic reaction for actin peptide H (YPIEHGIVT) were determined with SETD3 preparations (8.5–9.2 µg protein, 1.2–1.3 µM) incubated for 30 min in the presence of [1H+3H] SAM (100 pmol, ≈290 × 103 cpm). In all experiments, the reaction mixture contained the homogenous recombinant S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine (SAH) nucleosidase (1.6 µg protein, 600 nM, E. coli) and adenine deaminase (3.9 µg protein, 600 nM, B. subtilis) to prevent SAH accumulation. Values are the means of three or four independent experiments. The values for standard error of the mean (S.E.) are also given.
