ADP-ribosyltransferase from Clostridium botulinum type C strain was found to induce an increase of inositol phosphates (IPs) formation in murine thymocytes membranes. Incubation of electropermeabilized murine thymocytes with the enzyme also caused an increase of IPs formation in the cells. This increase of IPs formation in the enzyme-treated membranes and electropermeabilized cells was dependent on the amount of both NAD and the enzyme, suggesting that the stimulation of phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C (PLC) was related to ADP-ribosylation of membrane proteins by the enzyme. On the other hand, in calf and murine thymocytes two proteins with the same molecular weight of 21,000 were found to be ADP-ribosylated by the botulinum ADP-ribosyltransferase. A minor ADP-ribosylation substrate was shown by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis to be G21k, a low-molecular-weight GTP-binding protein (G protein) suggested previously by us to be involved in PLC regulation [Wang, P. et al. (1987) J. Biochem. 102, 1275-1287; (1988) 103, 137-142; and (1989) 105, 461-466], and the other major ADP-ribosylation substrate was identified as a rho A protein. Under the experimental conditions of the IPs formation study, ADP-ribosylation of both G21k and rho A proteins by botulinum ADP-ribosyltransferase in membranes and permeabilized cells was observed. These results suggest that botulinum ADP-ribosyltransferase-induced PLC stimulation in thymocytes is closely correlated with ADP-ribosylation of the low-molecular-weight G proteins.

Glutamic acid 553 of Pseudomonas aeruginosa exotoxin A (ETA) was identified earlier as a putative active-site residue by photoaffinity labeling with NAD. Here ETA-E553D, a cloned form of the toxin in which Glu-553 has been replaced by aspartic acid, was purified from Escherichia coli extracts and characterized. Cytotoxicity of the mutant toxin for mouse L-M cells was less than 1/400,000 that of the wild type. The mutation caused a 3200-fold reduction in NAD:elongation factor 2 ADP-ribosyltransferase activity, as estimated by assays with an active fragment derived from the toxin by digestion with thermolysin. NAD glycohydrolase activity was reduced somewhat less, by a factor of 50, and photoaffinity labeling with NAD by a factor of 2. We detected less than 2-fold change in the values of KM for NAD or elongation factor 2 and no change in KD for NAD, as determined by quenching of protein fluorescence. The drastic reduction of ADP-ribosyltransferase activity therefore results primarily from an effect of the mutation on kcat, implying that Glu-553 plays an important and possibly direct role in catalyzing this reaction. The effects of the E553D mutation are similar to those of the E148D mutation in diphtheria toxin, supporting the notion that these two Glu residues perform the same function in their respective toxins.

Glutamine synthetase from the photosynthetic bacterium Rhodospirillum rubrum is the target of both ATP- and NAD-dependent modification. Incubation of R. rubrum cell supernatant with [alpha-32P]NAD results in the labeling of glutamine synthetase and two other unidentified proteins. Dinitrogenase reductase ADP-ribosyltransferase does not appear to be responsible for the modification of glutamine synthetase or the unidentified proteins. The [alpha-32P]ATP- and [alpha-32P] NAD-dependent modifications of R. rubrum glutamine synthetase appear to be exclusive and the two forms of modified glutamine synthetase are separable on two-dimensional gels. Loss of enzymatic activity by glutamine synthetase did not correlate with [alpha-32P]NAD labeling. This is in contrast to inactivation by nonphysiological ADP-ribosylation of other glutamine synthetases by an NAD:arginine ADP-ribosyltransferase from turkey erythrocytes (Moss, J., Watkins, P.A., Stanley, S.J., Purnell, M.R., and Kidwell, W.R. (1984) J. Biol. Chem. 259, 5100-5104). A 32P-labeled protein spot comigrates with the NAD-treated glutamine synthetase spot when glutamine synthetase purified from H3 32PO4-grown cells is analyzed on two-dimensional gels. The adenylylation site of R. rubrum glutamine synthetase has been determined to be Leu-(Asp)-Tyr-Leu-Pro-Pro-Glu-Glu-Leu-Met; the tyrosine residue is the site of modification.

Glutamine synthetase from Escherichia coli was inactivated by chemical modification with arginine-specific reagents (Colanduoni, J. A., and Villafranca, J. J. (1985) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 126, 412-418). E. coli glutamine synthetase was also a substrate for an erythrocyte NAD:arginine ADP-ribosyltransferase. Transfer of one ADP-ribosyl group/subunit of glutamine synthetase caused loss of both biosynthetic and gamma-glutamyltransferase activity. The ADP-ribose moiety was enzymatically removed by an erythrocyte ADP-ribosylarginine hydrolase, resulting in return of function. The site of ADP-ribosylation was arginine 172, determined by isolation of the ADP-ribosylated tryptic peptide. Arginine 172 lies in a central loop that extends into the core formed by the 12 subunits of the native enzyme. The central loop is important in anchoring subunits together to yield the spatial orientation required for catalytic activity. ADP-ribosylation may thus inactivate glutamine synthetase by disrupting the normal subunit alignment. Enzyme-catalyzed ADP-ribosylation may provide a simple, specific technique to probe the role of arginine residues in the structure and function of proteins.

Glutamic acid-148, an active-site residue of diphtheria toxin identified by photoaffinity labeling with NAD, was replaced with aspartic acid, glutamine, or serine by directed mutagenesis of the F2 fragment of the toxin gene. Wild-type and mutant F2 proteins were synthesized in Escherichia coli, and the corresponding enzymic fragment A moieties (DTA) were derived, purified, and characterized. The Glu----Asp (E148D), Glu----Gln (E148Q), and Glu----Ser (E148S) mutations caused reductions in NAD:EF-2 ADP-ribosyltransferase activity of ca. 100-, 250-, and 300-fold, respectively, while causing only minimal changes in substrate affinity. The effects of the mutations on NAD-glycohydrolase activity were considerably different; only a 10-fold reduction in activity was observed for E148S, and the E148D and E148Q mutants actually exhibited a small but reproducible increase in NAD-glycohydrolytic activity. Photolabeling by nicotinamide-radiolabeled NAD was diminished ca. 8-fold in the E148D mutant and was undetectable in the other mutants. The results confirm that Glu-148 plays a crucial role in the ADP-ribosylation of EF-2 and imply an important function for the side-chain carboxyl group in catalysis. The carboxyl group is also important for photochemical labeling by NAD but not for NAD-glycohydrolase activity. The pH dependence of the catalytic parameters for the ADP-ribosyltransferase reaction revealed a group in DTA-wt that titrates with an apparent pKa of 6.2-6.3 and is in the protonated state in the rate-determining step.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Purified recombinant S1 subunit of pertussis toxin (rS1) possessed similar NAD glycohydrolase and ADP-ribosyltransferase activities as S1 subunit purified from pertussis toxin. Purified rS1 and C180 peptide, a deletion peptide which contains amino acids 1-180 of rS1, had Km values for NAD of 24 and 13 microM and kcat values of 22 and 24 h-1, respectively, in the NAD glycohydrolase reaction. In contrast, under linear velocity conditions, the C180 peptide possessed less than 1% of the ADP-ribosyltransferase activity of rS1 using transducin as target. Radiolabeled tryptic peptides of transducin that had been ADP-ribosylated by either rS1 or C180 peptide were identical which suggested that both rS1 and C180 peptide ADP-ribosylated the same amino acid within transducin. To extend the functional primary amino acid map of the S1 subunit, two carboxyl-terminal deletions were constructed. One deletion, C195, removed the 40 carboxyl-terminal amino acids and the other, C219, removed the 16 carboxyl-terminal amino acids of the S1 subunit. Both C195 and C219 migrated in reduced sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis with apparent molecular masses of 22,000 and 27,500 Da, respectively. Relative to the C180 peptide C195 possessed 10-20-fold increase and C219 possessed 100-150-fold increase in ADP-ribosyltransferase activities. In addition, C219 appeared to have the same ADP-ribosyltransferase activity as rS1. These studies indicate that (i) rS1, purified from Escherichia coli, possesses biochemical properties similar to S1 subunit purified from pertussis toxin, (ii) amino acids 1-180 of the S1 subunit contain residues required for NAD binding, N-glycosidic cleavage, and transfer of ADP-ribose to transducin, and (iii) residues between 181 and 219 of the S1 subunit are required for efficient ADP-ribosyltransferase activity.

Pertussis toxin (PT) is a major virulence factor of Bordetella pertussis, and also an important protective antigen. PT is an oligomeric A-B type toxin in which the S1 subunit has the ADP-ribosyltransferase activity whereas the B-oligomer mediates its binding to target cell receptors. To analyze the immunological properties of S1 and to generate probes to localize and characterize S1 functional domains, we synthesized four sets of peptides and peptide analogs corresponding to potentially critical regions of the S1 subunit. Two peptide-KLH conjugates were found to be capable of inducing PT-neutralizing antibodies in rabbits as judged by the CHO cell clustering assay. These peptides comprise residues 1-18 (N18-S1) and 121-138 (NAD-S1), respectively. Immunization with the unconjugated C-terminal peptide C35-S1 (residues 201-235) in the presence of Freund's adjuvant also elicited PT-neutralizing antibodies, indicating that the C-terminal region of S1 contains a potent functional T-helper cell epitope. Using truncated peptide analogs of N18-S1, we have demonstrated that the first three N-terminal residues are essential for inducing neutralizing antibodies. The NAD-S1 peptide elicited a neutralizing antibody response when coupled to KLH via its N-terminal end but not via its C-terminal residue. Identification of these B-cell neutralization epitopes represents a first step towards the rational design of a synthetic vaccine against whooping cough.

Membranes purified from cells of Streptomyces griseus strain 52-1 possess an ADP-ribosyltransferase activity. The enzyme transfers the ADP-ribose moiety of NAD to one major membrane protein of Mr 32,000 and 2-3 minor proteins of larger molecular weights. The effects of inhibitors on the ADP-ribosyltransferase activity proves that the reaction is enzymatic and suggests that the enzyme ADP-ribosylates the guanidine group of arginine. The kinetics of liberation of ADP-ribose during alkaline hydrolysis of the modified proteins is consistent with the arginine-ADP-ribose bond. This is the first report of ADP-ribosylation of proteins in a Gram-positive bacterium.

Integral membrane-associated arginine-specific mono-ADP-ribosyltransferase was purified from rabbit skeletal muscle microsomes. The ADP-ribosyltransferase was solubilized from the 100,000 x g pellet with 0.3% sodium deoxycholate and purified to greater than or equal to 95% homogeneity by successive DE52, concanavalin A-agarose, 3-aminobenzamide-agarose, and size-exclusion high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) steps in the presence of detergents. Two molecular weight forms of the enzyme were isolated and partially characterized. The apparent Mr of the alpha-form of the enzyme purified to greater than or equal to 95% homogeneity was approximately 39,000 +/- 500 as estimated by silver-stained sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The Mr of the beta-form purified to greater than or equal to 80% homogeneity was 38,500 +/- 500. The rapid procedure resulted in a 200-fold purification for the alpha-form and a 645-fold purification for the beta-form, relative to the microsomal fraction. Positive identification of the enzyme was confirmed by utilizing a zymographic in situ gel assay and by HPLC assay of polyacrylamide gel slice incubations with an NAD and guanylhydrazone substrate. The specificity of the mono-ADP-ribosyltransferase zymographic assay was characterized by time course incubations, hydroxylamine sensitivity, 3-aminobenzamide inhibition, and histone dependence. The ADP-ribosyltransferase is inactivated by reducing agents.

Incubation of membranes of human promyelocytic leukemia HL-60 cells with [32P]NAD led to ADP-ribosylation of several proteins including a 38 kDa protein by endogenous ADP-ribosyltransferases. The ADP-ribosylation of the 38 kDa protein was distinctly different from others on the basis of pH dependency and heat stability at 50 degrees C, suggesting that there are at least two endogenous ADP-ribosyltransferases. It was enhanced by CTP, but not affected by ATP, GTP and UTP, whereas it was inhibited by GTP gamma S. [alpha-32P]CTP bound to the 38 kDa protein immobilized on a nitrocellulose sheet, indicating that the 38 kDa protein which bound CTP is strongly ADP-ribosylated by an endogenous ADP-ribosyltransferase.
