The pathway of ATP hydrolysis by rat kinesin was established by pre-steady-state kinetic methods. A 406-residue long N-terminal fragment was shown by sedimentation equilibrium analysis to form a dimer with a K-d of 46 nM. The pathway of ATP hydrolysis follows the Gilbert-Johnson pathway determined previously for a similar-sized N-terminal fragment of Drosophila conventional kinesin. However, the rates of ADP release were at least 3-fold faster, and ATP hydrolysis was similar to 5-fold faster. Paralleling our previous mechanistic data, these results support an alternating site ATPase pathway, including a captive head state as an intermediate in the kinesin ATPase cycle. The kinetic data presented in this report once again point to the importance of the captive head state and argue against a pathway that short-circuits this key intermediate. In addition, several unique aspects of the rat kinesin kinetics reveal new aspects of the ATPase-coupling mechanism. These studies provide a baseline set of kinetic parameters against which future studies of rat kinesin mutants may be evaluated and directly correlated with the structure of the dimeric kinesin.
