A 'H NMR study on the Escherichia coli aden- osine cyclic 3',5'-phosphate receptor protein (CRP) alone and in its complexes with adenosine cyclic 3',5'-phosphate (CAMP), guanosine cyclic 3',5'-phosphate (cGMP), and a number of analogues is presented. Five sets of imidazole proton reso- nances are seen, corresponding to the five histidines per subunit found by amino acid analysis (Anderson, W. B., Schneider, A. B., Emmer, M., Perlman, R. L., & Pastan, I. (1971) J. Biol. Chem. 246, 592949371, Four of the histidine residues, A, B, C, and D, are characterized by imidazole proton resonances with unusually narrow line widths (3-5 Hz) for a protein of molecular weight 45 000 and pKs in the range 6-7, suggesting that they lie in mobile regions of the protein. In contrast, the fifth histidine residue, E, has a broad C(2) proton resonance (- 15 Hz) and a very low pK (55), indicating that it is buried in the deprotonated state in a rigid portion of the protein. The addition of cyclic nucleotides to CRP does not lead to any drastic changes in the protein spectrum. The most prominent changes are associated with the addition of cAMP and are characterized by an overall broadening of all the proton res- onances of the protein and marked changes at the high-field end of the aromatic region. Following the addition of cAMP and cGMP, a slow conformational change in the structure of CRP can be detected. This conformational transition occurs subsequent to the binding of a cyclic nucleotide molecule to one of the binding sites and is only complete when both cyclic nucleotide binding sites are almost completely saturated. For the cGMPCRP complex, the upper limit for the intercon- version rate between the two conformations is 18 s-I, and for the cAMP.CRP complex, the interconversion rate lies in the range 60-120 s-'. The conformations about the glycosidic bond of cyclic nucleotides bound to CRP were investigated by the measurement of transferred nuclear Overhauser en- hancements, which showed that cAMP and its analogues are bound in the syn conformation with values for the glycosidic bond torsion angle x (0(4')-C( l')-N(9)-C(4)) in the range 45-55' and that cGMP and its analogue inosine cyclic 3',5'-phosphate (cIMP) are bound in the anti conformation with values of x of 225' and 240°, respectively. This contrasts to the situation in free cyclic nucleotides which exist in a syn/anti equilibrium mixture, cAMP being predominantly in the anti conformation and cGMP predominantly in the syn conformation. The implications and possible mechanism of this conformational selection by CRP are discussed. the glycosidic bond of a number of bound cyclic nucleotides including cAMP and cGMP. We show that whereas cAMP and its analogous are bound in the syn conformation, cGMP and its analogues are bound in the anti conformation. This contrasts with their conformations in free solution where cyclic
