  • Beschreibung: <jats:p>The high‐affinity binding site for ATP of the holoenzyme of cAMP‐dependent protein kinase (type I) from rabbit skeletal muscle has been investigated. Binding affinity of a series of ATP derivatives substituted at different sites in the molecule was determined by competition with tritiated ATP. The results were compared with data available from cAMP derivatives with the same substituents, in order to analyse the electronic and steric features of these two sites on the protein kinase. The comparison revealed significant differences of the effect of substituents towards the two sites. In particular the <jats:italic>N</jats:italic><jats:sup>6</jats:sup>‐derivatives of ATP and substituents affecting the γ‐phosphate indicate that the high‐affinity ATP site of the protein kinase has similar properties as those found for phosphotransferase sites. The present results are consistent with the supposition that the high‐affinity site for ATP on the holoenzyme is congruent with the phosphotransferase site of the catalytic subunit. Upon combination of catalytic and regulatory subunits this site would be transformed into a high‐affinity site for ATP with simultaneous blocking of the phosphotransferase activity.</jats:p>
