Abstract
Cephamycin C-producing microorganisms contain a two-protein enzyme system that converts cephalosporins to 7-methoxycephalosporins. Interaction between the two component proteins P7 (Mr 27,000) and P8 (Mr 32,000) has been studied by immunoaffinity chromatography using anti-P7 and anti-P8 antibodies, cross-linking with glutaraldehyde, and fluorescence spectroscopy analysis. Co-renaturation of the P7 and P8 polypeptides resulted in the formation of a protein complex with a molecular mass of 59 kDa, which corresponds to a heterodimer of P7 and P8. Glutaraldehyde cross-linking of the polypeptides after assembly of the protein complex showed the presence of a single heterodimer form that reacted with antibodies against P7 and P8. Each separate protein did not associate with itself into multimers. The P7.P8 complex co-purified by immunoaffinity chromatography from extracts of Nocardia lactamdurans and Streptomyces clavuligerus, suggesting that both proteins are present as an aggregate in vivo. Fluorescence spectroscopy studies of 5-methylaminonaphthalene-1-sulfonyl-P7 in response to increasing concentrations of P8 showed a blue shift in the fluorophore emission, indicating a conformational change of P7 in response to the interaction o...Continue Reading
