Abstract

The binding of denatured B. stearothermophilus D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) to the E. coli chaperonin GroEL was investigated in two systems: (1) GroEL immobilized on Sepharose via a single subunit was titrated with urea-denatured soluble GAPDH and (2) a Sepharose-bound denatured GAPDH monomer was titrated with soluble GroEL. Similar apparent KD values for the complex GroEL x GAPDH were obtained in both cases (0.04 and 0.03 microM, respectively), the stoichiometry being 1.0 mol chaperonin per GAPDH subunit in the system with the immobilized GroEL and 0.2 mol chaperonin per Sepharose-bound GAPDH monomer. Addition of GroEL and Mg x ATP to a reactivation mixture increased the yield of reactivation of both E. coli and B. stearothermophilus GAPDHs. Incubation of the Sepharose-bound catalytically active tetrameric and dimeric GAPDH forms with the protein fraction of a wild-type E. coli cell extract resulted in the binding of GroEL to the dimer and no interaction with the tetrameric form. These data suggest that GroEL may be capable of interacting with the interdimeric contact regions of the folded GAPDH dimers.
