    Abstract:
    In order to investigate the structure of the active site of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase catalytic subunit a synthesis of several previously unknown adenosine-5'-triphosphate (ATP) derivatives containing substituents of various nature at N(1), N(C6) and C(8) positions of the purine base was carried out. The interaction of these derivatives with a homogeneous preparation of the catalytic subunit of rabbit skeletal muscle cAMP-dependent protein kinase was investigated. All the nucleotide analogs were found to inhibit the enzyme activity; the inhibition was competitive with respect to ATP. It was assumed that the adenine moiety of the ATP molecule is bound to the active site of protein kinase by the hydrophobic interaction with the aromatic amino acid residues and by formation of the hydrogen bond between the exo-NH2-group of the substrate and a corresponding group of the enzyme. The "correct" binding of ATP to the enzyme active center is defined by the anti-conformation of the nucleotide.
