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.

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.

A protein rich in proline and arginine (proline/arginine-rich protein (PARP] has been isolated from dissociative extracts of bovine nasal and articular cartilage, and its primary structure has been determined. The protein has 218 amino acids, giving a calculated protein Mr of 24,075. In nasal cartilage, this protein is in molar concentrations equivalent to 1/20-1/10 that of the link protein of cartilage proteoglycan aggregates. PARP has also been isolated from bovine articular cartilage, bovine fetal epiphysis, and nonossified human tarsal bones. PARP is similar to various collagen NH2-terminal domains. It is 49% identical to the NH2-terminal end of collagen alpha 1 (XI), 17% identical to the NC4 domain of collagen alpha 1 (IX), and 14% identical to the NC3 domain of collagen alpha 1 (XII). Four cysteines are conserved between type XI collagen and PARP, and these form two disulfide bonds. Two of the cysteines are also conserved between PARP and collagens IX and XII. The homology between the collagens and PARP makes it possible to speculate on the likely disulfide bond pattern in the collagen NH2-terminal domains. It is probable that PARP is a collagen fragment removed during processing in a manner analogous to chondrocalcin (the C-terminal propeptide of type II collagen).

Arginine-specific mono(ADP-ribosyl)ation and de-ADP-ribosylation reactions of endogenous acceptor proteins were examined using human neutrophils. The cells contained arginine-specific ADP-ribosyltransferase, acceptor proteins and hydrolase catalyzing the release of ADP-ribose from the ADP-ribose/acceptor conjugate. One major acceptor protein with an apparent molecular mass of 27 kDa was detected in the neutrophils. The ADP-ribosylation of this protein was greatly enhanced when double-stranded DNA was added. The release of ADP-ribose from the ADP-ribosyl core-histones was suppressed. These findings provide clues as to the physiological function of neutrophil ADP-ribosyltransferase.

Arginine-specific ADP-ribosyltransferase from rabbit skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum was solubilized as the active form with trypsin. The enzyme was partially purified by subsequent chromatography, successively on DE-52, Con A-Sepharose and Sephadex G-75. An approximately 2,000-fold purification was achieved from the 105,000 x g supernatant of trypsin-treated membrane with a recovery of 2.8%. Dithiothreitol, which activates hen liver nuclear ADP-ribosyltransferase, inhibited the enzyme.

The function of the cloned draT gene of Rhodospirillum rubrum was studied by placing it under the control of the tac promoter in the vector, pKK223-3. After induction with isopropyl-beta-D-thiogalactopyranoside, dinitrogenase reductase ADP-ribosyltransferase (DRAT) activity was detected in crude extracts of the heterologous hosts Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae. In addition, the expression of draT produced a Nif- phenotype in the otherwise wild-type K. pneumoniae strains, the result of the ADP-ribosylation of accumulated dinitrogenase reductase (DR). DR from a nifF- background was also susceptible to ADP-ribosylation, indicating that the oxidized form of DR will serve as a substrate for DRAT in vivo. A mutation that changes the Arg-101 residue of DR, the ADP-ribose attaching site, eliminates the ADP-ribosylation of DR in vivo, confirming the necessity of this residue for modification.

Clostridium spiroforme iotalike toxin produced time- and concentration-dependent incorporation of ADP-ribose into homo-poly-L-arginine. Polyasparagine, polyglutamic acid, polylysine, and agmatine were poor substrates. Enzyme activity was associated with the light-chain polypeptide of the toxin. The heavy chain did not possess ADP-ribosyltransferase activity, nor did it enhance or inhibit activity of the light chain. In broken-cell assays, the toxin acted mainly on G-actin, rather than F-actin. A single ADP-ribose group was transferred to each substrate molecule (G-actin). The enzyme was heat sensitive, had a pH optimum in the range of 7 to 8, was inhibited by high concentrations of nicotinamide, and was reversibly denatured by urea and guanidine. Physiological levels of nucleotides (AMP, ADP, ATP, and ADP-ribose) and cations (Na+, K+, Ca2+, and Mg2+) were not very active as enzyme inhibitors. The toxin was structurally and functionally similar to Clostridium botulinum type C2 toxin and Clostridium perfringens iota toxin. When combined with previous findings, the data suggest that a new class of mono(ADP-ribosyl)ating toxins has been found and that these agents belong to a related and possibly homologous series of binary toxins.

Sulfhydryl-alkylating reagents are known to inactivate the NAD glycohydrolase and ADP-ribosyltransferase activities of the S1 subunit of pertussis toxin, a protein which contains two cysteines at positions 41 and 200. It has been proposed that NAD can retard alkylation of one of the two cysteines of this protein (Kaslow, H.R., and Lesikar, D.D. (1987) Biochemistry 26, 4397-4402). We now report that NAD retards the ability of these alkylating reagents to inactivate the S1 subunit. In order to determine which cysteine is protected by NAD, we used site-directed mutagenesis to construct analogs of the toxin with serines at positions 41 and/or 200. Sulfhydryl-alkylating reagents reduced the ADP-ribosyltransferase activity of the analog with a single cysteine at position 41; NAD retarded this inactivation. In contrast, sulfhydryl-alkylating reagents did not inactivate analogs with serine at position 41. An analog with alanine at position 41 possessed substantial ADP-ribosyltransferase activity. We conclude that alkylation of cysteine 41, and not cysteine 200, inactivates the S1 subunit of pertussis toxin, but that the sulfhydryl group of cysteine 41 is not essential for the ADP-ribosyltransferase activity of the toxin. These results suggest that the region near cysteine 41 contributes to features of the S1 subunit important for ADP-ribosyltransferase activity. Using site-directed mutagenesis, we found that changing aspartate 34 to asparagine, arginine 39 to lysine, and glutamine 42 to glutamate had little effect on ADP-ribosyltransferase activity. However, substituting an asparagine for the histidine at position 35 markedly decreased, but did not eliminate, ADP-ribosyltransferase activity. Chou-Fasman analysis predicted no significant modifications in secondary structure of the S1 peptide with the change of histidine 35 to asparagine. Thus, histidine 35 may interact with a substrate of the S1 subunit without being essential for catalysis.

By introducing a series of six different substitutions at and around position 9, we investigated the structural requirements of the amino-terminal region of the S1 subunit of pertussis toxin for both enzyme activity and immunoreactivity. All mutant S1 analogs with a substitution at this location exhibited severely decreased ADP-ribosyltransferase activity (range, 400- to 2,500-fold). In contrast, alteration of arginine 58 had considerably less effect. The reactivity of the mutant molecules with monoclonal antibody 1B7 varied with the nature of the substitution. These findings indicate an absolute requirement for the presence of an arginine residue at position 9 for the maintenance of efficient ADP-ribosyltransferase activity and illustrate the specific participation of vicinal residues in the formation of the protective epitope.
