Abstract

Using [32P]-8-N3-cAMP, a photoaffinity analog of cAMP, we have established that nuclear binding of cAMP is preferentially localized in the "nuclear matrix". Two major radioactive bands corresponded to proteins of Mr 40 K and 50 K, and three minor bands to proteins of Mr 55, 150 and 200 K. Even though the molecular weight of the major nuclear binding proteins in the matrix are similar to those of the cytosolic cAMP binding proteins, the characteristics of the binding reaction in the nucleus were markedly different from those in the cytosol.
