Fragments of ACV synthetase of Penicillium chrysogenum carrying partial activities of amino acid activation were expressed under the alcA promoter in an acvA-deletion mutant of Aspergillus nidulans. The 210 kDa domain A-beta-galactosidase fusion protein was partially cleaved to fragments of 200 and 97 kDa. The domain A fragment and the 312 kDa domain BC construct were identified by peptide specific antibodies and shown to catalyze alpha-aminoadipate-, cysteine-, and valine-dependent ATP/[32P]PPi exchange activity. Substrate specificities were investigated using amino acid analogues. Unexpectedly neither alpha-aminoadipate nor valine activation was exclusive, implying possible misactivations and proof reading functions. Both fragments were only expressed in limited amounts and found to be unstable.
