TAILIEUCHUNG - Báo cáo khoa học: Dimerization of mammalian adenylate cyclases Functional, biochemical and ¯uorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) studies

Mammalian adenylate cyclases are predicted to possess complex topologies, comprising two cassettes of six trans-membrane-spanningmotifs followedbyacytosolic, catalytic ATP-binding domain. Recent studies have begun to provide insights on the tertiary assembly of these proteins; crystal-lographic analysis has revealed that the two cytosolic domains dimerize to forma catalytic core, whilemore recent biochemical and cell biological analysis shows that the two transmembrane cassettes also associate to facilitate the functional assembly and tra ckingof the enzyme. . | Eur.

Recent studies have begun to provide insights on the tertiary assembly of these proteins crystallographic analysis has revealed that the two cytosolic domains dimerize to form a catalytic core while more recent biochemical and cell biological analysis shows that the two transmembrane cassettes also associate to facilitate the functional assembly and trafficking of the enzyme. The older literature had suggested that adenylate cyclases might form higher order aggregates although the methods used did not necessarily provide convincing evidence of biologically relevant events. In the present study we have pursued this question by a variety of approaches including rescue or suppression of function by variously modi ed molecules coimmunoprecipitation and fluorescence resonance energy transfer FRET analysis between molecules in living cells. The results strongly suggest that adenylate cyclases dimerize or oligomerize via their hydrophobic domains. It is speculated that this divalent property may allow adenylate cyclases to participate in multimeric signaling assemblies.
