Kathy G. Lawton,** James V. Wierowski, Steven Schechter, 1 Russell Hilf, and Robert A. Bambara § abstract: Biochemical kinetic analyses of the ATP stimu-lation of the A2 form of calf DNA a-polymerase show that when DNA or primer termini are the variable substrates, maximum reaction velocity is independent of ATP concen-tration. When dNTP concentration is the variable substrate, the apparent Km is invariant with ATP. Such results indicate that theincrease in the synthetic rate caused by ATP results from an improvement in synthesis initiation at primer termini. The effect ofATP on the DNA binding affinity of a-A2-polymerase was examined by using column chromatography. Passage of the polymerase through native DNA-cellulose at 70 mM ionic strength resulted in40% binding of theenzyme. In the presence of 4 mM ATP, binding increased to80%. In both cases, the bound polymerase could be eluted by a 370 mM ionicstrength wash. An elution profile similar to that observed in the absence of ATP was obtained with 0.1 mM ATP, 4 mM GTP, or 4 mM each of the nonhydrolyzable ATP analogues adenyl-5'-yl imidodiphosphate or adenosine 5'-O-
