Adenylyl Cyclase Overview/Structure
Overview- General Structure • Lyase • Enzyme that converts ATP to cAMP • Interacts with g proteins and receptors • 1064-1353 amino acids long • 120-150 kilodaltons
General Structure cont’d • 10 mammalian isoforms • All membrane bound • 60% similarity • 50%-90% in cytoplasmic regions
Primary Structure • The main structural features of mammalian adenylyl cyclases • M1/M2: 2 sets 6 transmembrane spans • C1a/C1b: large cytoplamic domains (360-390 amino acids) • C2a/C2b: large cytoplasmic domains (255-330 amino acids) • Most highly conserved sequence in all isoforms • 50% similar; 25% identical • N terminus and C terminus
Secondary Structure • Alpha helices • Beta sheets
Tertiary Structure • The folding of a protein into a 3-D structure
Quaternary Structure • Interaction between two domains • Large cytoplasmic domains • C1a • C2b
Quaternary Structure • Adenylyl cyclase interaction with G protein
Overview Signal Transduction -produces cyclic AMP from ATP -responds to a large number of receptors 10 Isoforms -allows a diverse response to the same or similar signals
Overview sAC is the tenth form of AC. It is soluble and only found in sperm
Activation Forskolin - increases affinity - increases stability - enhances activity Forskolin
Catalysis Mechanism ATP → cAMP +PPi → + ATP cAMP pyrophosphate
Role of Cyclic AMP Step 1: activates protein kinases Step 2: protein kinases phosphorylate substrate proteins Step 3: activated substrate proteins regulate hormone production
