An ADP-ribosyltransferase was purified approximately 500-fold from the supernatant fraction of turkey erythrocytes. The enzyme hydrolyzed [carbonyl-(14)C]NAD to ADP-ribose and [carbonyl-(14)C]nicotinamide at a low rate. Nicotinamide formation from NAD was enhanced by arginine methyl ester > D-arginine approximately L-arginine > guanidine; lysine, histidine, and citrulline were ineffective. Incubation of [adenine-U-(14)C]NAD and arginine methyl ester or arginine with the purified enzyme resulted in the formation of new compounds that contained (14)C, reacted with ninhydrin, and quenched background fluorescence of thin-layer plates viewed in ultraviolet light. Their mobilities on thin-layer chromatograms were indistinguishable from those of ADP-ribosylarginine methyl ester and ADP-ribosylarginine formed during incubation of choleragen with NAD and arginine methyl ester or arginine, respectively [Moss, J. & Vaughan, M. (1977) J. Biol. Chem. 252, 2455-2457]. The purified transferase also catalyzed the incorporation of label from [adenine-(14)C]-NAD into lysozyme, histones and polyarginine. When the (14)C-labeled lysozyme was incubated with snake venom phosphodiesterase, the radioactivity was released and, on thin-layer chromatograms, exhibited a mobility indistinguishable from that of 5'-AMP, as would be expected of an ADP-ribosylated protein, but not of a poly(ADP-ribosylated) product. The purified transferase activated rat brain adenylate cyclase and, as is the case with choleragen, activation was absolutely dependent on NAD. The presence in the avian erythrocyte of a protein that, like choleragen and Escherichia coli heat-labile enterotoxin, apparently activates adenylate cyclase and possesses ADP-ribosyl transferase activity is consistent with the view that the mechanisms through which the bacterial toxins produce pathology are not entirely foreign to vertebrate cells, at least some of which may possess and employ an analogous mechanism for activation of adenylate cyclase.

Nitric oxide-releasing compounds were shown to activate an ADP-ribosyltransferase activity in the cytosol of Dictyostelium discoideum. The enzyme ADP-ribosylated a cytosolic protein of approximately 41 kDa, p41. Neither cGMP nor GTP and its analogues affected this ADP-ribosylation. p41 differs from other substrates ADP-ribosylated by cholera, pertussis, or diphtheria toxins. Treatment of ADP-ribosylated p41 with snake venom phosphodiesterase released adenosine 5'-monophosphate, indicating a mono-ADP-ribose-protein linkage. This linkage was stable to neutral hydroxylamine but was sensitive to mercury ions and iodomethane, suggesting an attachment to a cysteine residue. Treatment of intact cells with nitric oxide-releasing compounds appeared to stimulate the ADP-ribosylation of p41 and this modification was reversible.

When the homogenate prepared from immature rat testes was incubated with [32P]NAD, several proteins (90, 39 and 20 kDa) were ADP-ribosylated in the absence of bacterial toxins. This observation suggested the existence of an endogenous ADP-ribosyltransferase and substrates. The data that the digested product by phosphodiesterase of ADP-ribosylated 20 kDa protein was 5'-AMP suggested that 20 kDa protein was mono(ADP-ribosyl)ated. In addition, the mono(ADP-ribosyl)ation of 20 kDa protein was enhanced by guanine nucleotides such as GTP, GDP and GTP[gamma S], and decreased by the concentrations of 10 mM Mg2+. In contrast, the incorporation of ADP-ribose moiety from NAD to both 90 and 39 kDa proteins was not changed by guanine nucleotides. On the other hand, mono(ADP-ribosyl)ation of 20 kDa protein was not observed in the homogenate prepared from other tissues of the same rats. Furthermore, we found that mono(ADP-ribosyl)ation of 20 kDa protein was decreased with the maturation of the rats and that an endogenous mono(ADP-ribosyl)transferase and 20 kDa protein were located in the nuclei.

We investigated the endogenous GTP-dependent ADP-ribosylation of the alpha-subunit of the stimulatory guanyl-nucleotide-binding protein (Gs alpha) concomitant with an increase of basal adenylyl cyclase activity in chicken spleen cell membranes. When these membranes were incubated with [adenylate-32P]NAD, there was significant incorporation of [32P]ADP-ribose into a 45-kDa acceptor protein in the membranes. This reaction was inhibited when 20 mM arginine was present during the incubation. When the membranes were incubated with unlabelled NAD, subsequent ADP ribosylation by cholera toxin was diminished significantly. Thus, chicken spleen cell membranes have the potential to endogenously ADP-ribosylate the arginine residue of Gs alpha. The endogenous ADP-ribosylation Gs alpha was enhanced by the addition of 0.1 mM GTP or 0.1 mM guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (GTP[S]), but not 0.1 mM GDP, 0.1 mM ATP or 0.1 mM ADP. The endogenous GTP-dependent ADP-ribosylation of Gs alpha stimulated basal adenylyl cyclase activity. Furthermore, NAD-induced stimulation of basal adenylyl cyclase activity was suppressed, when the membranes were incubated with NAD in the presence of novobiocin, an inhibitor of arginine-specific ADP-ribosyltransferase. These data represent the first demonstration that a eukaryotic cell membrane contains an ADP-ribosyltransferase which can catalyze the endogenous GTP-dependent ADP-ribosylation of the arginine residue of Gs alpha and that this modification enhances basal adenylyl cyclase activity in the membrane. In light of this evidence, the possible control of basal adenylyl cyclase activity via endogenous GTP-dependent ADP-ribosylation in eukaryotic cells warrants further attention.

Sodium nitroprusside is a vasodilator and an inhibitor of platelet activation. It is thought that these effects are mediated by the spontaneous release of nitric oxide and stimulation of cytosolic guanylate cyclase. We have found that sodium nitroprusside (5-200 microM) greatly increased a cytosolic ADP-ribosyltransferase that ADP-ribosylates a soluble 39-kDa protein. This activity causes the mono-ADP-ribosylation of the 39-kDa protein, since digestion with snake venom phosphodiesterase releases 5'-AMP. This enzyme is present in platelets, brain, heart, intestine, liver, and lung. The effect of sodium nitroprusside is not related to stimulation of soluble guanylate cyclase and the production of cyclic GMP because cyclic GMP, dibutyryl cyclic GMP, and 8-bromo-cyclic GMP are ineffective. 3-Morpholinosydnonimine (commonly known as SIN-1) (20-1000 micrograms/ml), another compound that acts through the spontaneous formation of nitric oxide as does sodium nitroprusside, also stimulates ADP-ribosylation of the 39-kDa protein. Hemoglobin, which binds nitric oxide, inhibits sodium nitroprusside's activation of the cytosolic ADP-ribosyltransferase. These studies demonstrate a novel action of nitric oxide related to the activation of an endogenous ADP-ribosyltransferase. The physiological role of this ADP-ribosylation needs further exploration.

The activity of ADP-ribosyltransferase in nuclei isolated from sea-urchin embryos was estimated by the incorporation of [adenosine-14C]NAD+ into the acid-insoluble fraction. Hydrolysis of this acid-insoluble product by snake venom phosphodiesterase yielded radioactive 5'-AMP and phosphoribosyl-AMP. The incorporation of [14C]-NAD+ was inhibited by 3-aminobenzamide and nicotinamide, potent inhibitors of ADP-ribosyltransferase. [14C]NAD+ incorporation into the acid-insoluble fraction results from the reaction of ADP-ribosyltransferase. The optimum pH for the enzyme in isolated nuclei was 7.5. The enzyme, in 50 mM-Tris/HCl buffer, pH 7.5, containing 0.5 mM-NAD+ and 0.5 mM-dithiothreitol, exhibited the highest activity at 18 degrees C in the presence of 14 mM-MgCl2. The apparent Km value for NAD+ was 25 microM. The activity of the enzyme was measured in nuclei isolated from the embryos at several stages during early development. The activity was maximum at the 16-32-cell stage and then decreased to a minimum at the mesenchyme blastula stage. Thereafter its activity slightly increased at the onset of gastrulation and decreased again at the prism stage.

The ADP-ribosylation site of histone H1 from calf thymus by purified hen liver nuclear ADP-ribosyltransferase was determined and effects of the ADP-ribose X histone-H1 adduct on cAMP-dependent phosphorylation of the histone H1 were investigated. ADP-ribosylated histone H1 was prepared by incubation of histone H1, 1 mM [adenylate-32P]NAD and the purified ADP-ribosyltransferase. N-Bromosuccinimide-directed bisection of ADP-ribosylated histone H1 showed that the NH2-terminal fragment (Mr = 6000) was modified and contained serine residue 38, the site of phosphorylation by cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Digestion of the NH2-terminal fragment with cathepsin D and trypsin, and purification of this fragment, using high-performance liquid chromatography, yielded a radiolabelled single peptide corresponding to residues 29-34 of histone H1, containing the arginine residue as the ADP-ribosylation site. These results indicate that ADP-ribosylation of histone H1 occurs at the arginine residue 34, sequenced at the NH2-terminal side of the phosphate-accepting serine residue 38. Phosphorylation of histone H1 from calf thymus by cAMP-dependent protein kinase was markedly reduced when histone H1 was ADP-ribosylated. Kinetic studies of phosphorylation revealed that ADP-ribosylated histone H1 was a linear competitive inhibitor of histone H1 and a linear non-competitive inhibitor of ATP.

A 20-kilodalton adenosine nucleotide-binding protein (A-protein) extracted from rod outer segments is shown to catalyze the cholera toxin-mediated ADP-ribosylation of GTP-binding protein (G-protein) from the outer segment. Radiolabel from [adenylate-32P] NAD+ was associated specifically with both the alpha-subunit of G-protein and with A-protein in the presence of activated cholera toxin. In the absence of added A-protein, G-protein appears to undergo ADP-ribosylation at a slower rate. In the absence of G-protein, A-protein was found to be labeled following incubation with [adenylate-32P]NAD+ and cholera toxin. In the presence of G-protein, a light-dependent component of A-protein labeling was observed. A-protein is a labile component of rod outer segments and has an affinity for ADP. The findings suggest that A-protein may act as an ADP-ribosyltransferase in the cholera toxin-mediated ADP-ribosylation of G-protein.

The characteristics of ADP-ribosyltransferase activity in skeletal muscle membranes have been studied. The membrane enzymes can ADP-ribosylate exogenous substrates such as guanylhydrazones, polyarginine, lysozyme, and histones. The properties of the enzyme are investigated by using diethylaminobenzylidineaminoguanidine as a model substrate. Incubation of the membranes with [32P]adenylate-labeled NAD results in the labeling of a number of cellular proteins. Magnesium ions, detergents, and diethylaminobenzylidineaminoguanidine stimulated the ADP-ribosylation of membrane proteins, whereas L-arginine methyl ester and arginine inhibited ADP-ribosylation. The labeling of specific proteins in the sarcoplasmic reticulum and glycogen pellet is influenced significantly by detergents, nucleotides, and thiols. The hydroxylamine sensitivity of the ADP-ribose linkage in the membrane proteins is similar to that reported for (ADP-ribose)-arginine linkage. Snake venom phosphodiesterase digestion of the ADP-ribosylated membranes produces 5'-AMP as the major acid-soluble digestion product. The results suggest that the primary mode of modification is mono(ADP-ribosyl)ation. The ADP-ribosyltransferase activity in the membrane preparations is not extracted under conditions used for solubilization of extrinsic proteins, suggesting that the activity is associated with some integral membrane protein.

A partially purified protein preparation from rat liver catalyzed the ADP-ribosylation of low molecular weight guanidino compounds and proteins. Agmatine and arginine, previously shown to be effective acceptors for the guanidine-dependent erythrocyte ADP-ribosyltransferase, were used as acceptors by the rat liver enzyme; lysine, histidine, and serine were inactive. The product of the reaction between [adenine-U-14C]NAD and agmatine catalyzed by the rat liver enzyme co-chromatographed with [adenine-U-14C]ADP-ribose-agmatine which was synthesized by the erythrocyte transferase; in parallel assays, formation of this product was associated with stoichiometric release of [carbonyl-14C]nicotinamide from [carbonyl-14C]NAD. In the presence of histones or other proteins and [adenine-U-14C]NAD or [32P]NAD, the rat liver enzyme catalyzed the formation of a radioactive product which was precipitable by trichloroacetic acid. Digestion of the [adenine-U-14C]-labeled precipitate with snake venom phosphodiesterase released a labeled compound identified as 5'-AMP. These data are consistent with the conclusion that a mono-(ADP-ribosyltransferase) is present in rat liver which utilizes guanidino compounds such as arginine as ADP-ribose acceptors. The ADP-ribose-glutamate bond has been shown to exist in rat liver. Since the catalytic sites of each transferase can accommodate and thus ADP-ribosylate only one specific amino acid, a family of site-specific transferases must be present. The availability of multiple site-specific transferases permits the cell to exert further control over ADP-ribosylation.
