The Identification, Purification, and Characterization of CooJ
A NICKEL-BINDING PROTEIN THAT IS CO-REGULATED WITH THE Ni-CONTAINING CO DEHYDROGENASE FROM RHODOSPIRILLUM RUBRUM

Richard K. Watt and Paul W. Ludden

From the Department of Biochemistry, University of Wisconsin, Madison, Wisconsin 53706

CooJ, a nickel-binding protein from the CO dehydrogenase system of Rhodospirillum rubrum, was purified by immobilized metal affinity chromatography. CooJ is a CO-induced protein predicted to contain a nickel binding motif composed of 16 histidine residues in the final 34 amino acids of the 12.5-kDa protein. When cells grown in the presence of CO were fractionated on an immobilized metal affinity chromatography column and analyzed by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, the major protein observed in the effluent migrated at an apparent molecular mass of 19 kDa. The 19-kDa protein was absent in extracts of cells grown in the absence of CO and the mutant strain, UR294, which lacks a functional cooJ gene. N-terminal sequence analysis confirmed that the 19-kDa protein is the product of the cooJ gene. Purified CooJ was shown to bind four nickel atoms per CooJ monomer with a Kd of 4.3 µM. Other divalent metals competed with the following order of affinity and corresponding Ki: Zn2+ (5 µM) > Cd2+ (19 µM) > Co2+ (23 µM) > Cu2+ (122 µM). CooJ chromatographed on a calibrated Superose 12 gel filtration column eluted at 39 kDa, a position consistent with a multimeric native molecular mass for CooJ.
