Substrate binding to the phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE5) catalytic site increases cGMP binding to the regulatory domain (R domain). The latter promotes PDE5 phosphorylation by cyclic nucleotide-dependent protein kinases, which activates catalysis, enhances allosteric cGMP binding, and causes PDE5A1 to apparently elongate. A human PDE5A1 R domain fragment (Val(46)-Glu(539)) containing the phosphorylation site (Ser(102)) and allosteric cGMP-binding sites was studied. The rate, cGMP dependence, and stoichiometry of phosphorylation of the PDE5 R domain by the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase are comparable with that of the holoenzyme. Migration in native polyacrylamide gels suggests that either cGMP binding or phosphorylation produces distinct conformers of the R domain. Phosphorylation of the R domain increases affinity for cGMP approximately 10-fold (K(D) values 97.8 +/- 17 and 10.0 +/- 0.5 nm for unphospho- and phospho-R domains, respectively). [(3)H]cGMP dissociates from the phospho-R domain with a single rate (t(12) = 339 +/- 30 min) compared with the biphasic pattern of the unphospho-R domain (t(12) = 39.0 +/- 4.8 and 265 +/- 28 min, for the fast and slow components, respectively). Thus, cGMP-directed regulation of PDE5 phosphorylation and the resulting increase in cGMP binding affinity occur largely within the R domain. Conformational change(s) elicited by phosphorylation of the R domain within the PDE5 holoenzyme may also cause or participate in stimulating catalysis.
