The ATP-dependent, calmodulin-sensitive 3-kinase responsible for the conversion of D-myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate to D-myo-inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate has been purified 2,700-fold from rat brain to a specific activity of 2.3 mumol/min/mg protein. A method of purification is described involving chromatography on phosphocellulose, Orange A dye ligand, calmodulin agarose, and hydroxylapatite columns. Neither the highly purified enzyme nor enzyme eluting from the phosphocellulose column were activated by Ca2+. However, enzyme in the 100,000 x g supernatant from rat brain was activated by Ca2+ over the range from 10(-7) to 10(-6) M and Ca2+ sensitivity of the purified enzyme was restored by the addition of calmodulin. The enzyme has a catalytic subunit Mr of 53,000 by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Size exclusion chromatography of the purified enzyme on a Superose 12 column gave a Mr value of 70,000, indicating that the purified enzyme was present as a monomer. In contrast, the 100,000 x g supernatant and the purified enzyme after addition of calmodulin and 10(-6) M Ca2+ chromatographed on size exclusion chromatography with a Mr of 150,000-160,000. These results imply that the native enzyme is a dimeric structure of two catalytic subunits plus calmodulin. The purified enzyme showed a Km of 0.21 +/- 0.08 microM for D-myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and had a pH optimum of 8.5. Addition of calmodulin increased both the Km and the Vmax of the p...
