An engineered version of the staphylococcal alpha-hemolysin protein pore, bearing a peptide inhibitor near the entrance to the P barrel, interacts with the catalytic (C) subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase. By monitoring the ionic current through the pore, binding events are detected at the single-molecule level. The kinetic and thermodynamic constants governing the binding interaction and the synergistic effect of MgATP are comparable but not identical to the values in bulk solution. Further, the values are strongly dependent on the applied membrane potential. Additional exploration of these findings may lead to a better understanding of the properties of enzymes at the lipid/water interface. Despite the complications, we suggest that the engineered pore might be used as a sensor element to screen inhibitors that act at either the substrate or ATP binding sites of the C subunit.
