Each R subunit has two in-tandem cAMP binding domains, and the structure of each of these domains has been modeledby analogy with the crystal structure of CAP. Boththe type I and II regulatory subunits have been considered, so that four cAMP binding domains have been modeled. Thebinding ofcAMP in general is analogous in all the structures and has been correlated with previous results based on photolabeling and binding of cAMP analogues. The model predicts that the first cAMP binding domain correlates with the previously defined fast dissociation site, which preferentially binds N6-substituted analogues of cAMP. The second domain corresponds to the slow dissociation site, which has a preference for C8-substituted analogues. The model also is consistent with cAMP binding in the syn conformation in both sites. Finally, this model has targeted specific regions that are likely to be involved in interdomain contacts. This includes contacts between the two cAMP binding domains as well as contacts with the amino-terminal region of the R subunit and with the catalytic subunit.(Cyclic AMP plays an important regulatory role in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. The Escherichia coli cata-bolite gene activator protein (CAP) senses the level of cAMP and regulates transcriptionfrom several operons in the presence of cAMP (Zubay et al., 1970; Anderson et al., 1972). CAP binds to specific DNA sequences in the presence of cAMP and regulates transcription of several operons including lactose, galactose, and ara C [for review, see deCrombrugghe et al.(1984) and deCrombrugghe and Pastan (1978)]. The crystal structure of the CAP dimer with two bound molecules of cAMP has been determined (McKay & Steitz, 1981; McKay
