Abstract
To elucidate the physicochemical basis of differences between the isoforms of mammalian multifunctional nucleoside diphosphate kinase (NDP), we investigated the recombinant rat homohexameric NDP kinases α and β, consisting of highly homologous α or β subunits of 152 residues each and differing only in variable regions V1 and V2, and their chimerical forms (NDP kinase α1–130β131–152 and NDP kinase β1–130α131–152) and tagged derivatives (NDP kinase HA-α1–130β131–152, NDP kinase HA-β1–130α131–152, and NDP kinase HA-β). The thermal stability of these proteins and the ability of some of them to interact with the Rhodopsin—transducin (R*Gt) complex have been studied. It was found that NDP kinase α, NDP kinase α1–130β131–152, and NDP kinase HA-α1–130β131–152 were similar in their thermal stability (T 1/2=61−63°C). NDP kinase β, NDP kinase β1–130α131–152, NDP kinase HA-β1–130α131–152, and NDP kinase HA-β were inactivated at a lower temperature (T 1/2=51−54°C). NDP kinase HA-α1–130β131–152 interacted with the R*Gt complex in the same manner as NDP kinase α, whereas the interaction of NDP kinase HA-β1–130α131–152 and NDP kinase β with the photoreceptor membranes under the same conditions was very weak. It is suggested that the variability of the region V1 is a structural basis for the multifunctionality of NDP kinase hexamers in the cell.
