ATP-binding sites in the membrane components of histidine permease, a periplasmic transport system.

RESUMO

Two components of the histidine permease in Salmonella typhimurium, the membrane-bound P and M proteins, react with the photoaffinity labeling reagent 8-azido-ATP in isolated membranes. The extent of labeling is decreased by the addition of ATP and somewhat less by addition of GTP, CTP, UTP, and ADP. Cyclic AMP, NAD, FAD, and S-adenosylmethionine have little effect. We propose that one or both of these proteins have a site capable of binding an adenine nucleotide and that, therefore, they may be involved in the energy-coupling step in active transport.
