| Abstract | The major function of the regulatory (R) subunit of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase is to bind tightly to the catalytic (C) subunit to form an inactive holoenzyme in the absence of cAMP. The hinge region of the R subunit resembles the substrate recognition site for the C subunit and is known to be involved in the R.C subunit interaction. Two arginine residues in this region, Arg-92 and Arg-93, are suggested to be essential for holoenzyme formation. In this study, a mutant in which Arg-92 and Arg-93 of type II regulatory subunit (RII) were replaced with alanine was constructed. Formation of the holoenzyme from mutant RII and C subunits was analyzed by gel-filtration and cation-exchange chromatography. Mutant RII in its cAMP-free form formed a stable holoenzyme with the C subunit, which dissociated in the presence of cAMP. Interestingly, the holoenzyme formed from mutant RII and C subunits retained full enzymatic activity even in the absence of cAMP. Although mutant RII could no longer be phosphorylated by the C subunit, the rate of [3H]cAMP release from mutant RII.cAMP was increased by addition of the C subunit, indicating that C-induced cAMP release is not the result of the interaction of the C subunit with the hinge region. These results demonstrate that Arg-92 and Arg-93 are not essential for holoenzyme formation but are critical for inhibiting kinase activity in the holoenzyme probably by occupying the substrate binding site. The results suggest that, in addition to the hinge region, a second site on the RII subunit may interact with the C subunit in a cAMP-dependent manner. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
