Four isoforms of myelin basic protein (MBP) from chicken brain were ADP-ribosylated by chicken heterophil ADP-ribosyltransferase. The 21-kD isoform was the most preferential substrate of this transferase. With this isoform, the Km values were estimated to be 330 mumol/l for NAD and 30 mumol/l for MBP, and the optimal pH for ADP-ribosylation was 8.5. The stoichiometry of ADP-ribose incorporation into 21-kD MBP was 3.5 mol of ADP-ribose/mol MBP. We found the inhibition of ADP-ribosylation of MBP by hydroxylamine and L-arginine indicating that this modification was likely to be mediated by arginine residues. Proteolytic peptide maps of ADP-ribosylated MBP by chicken ADP-ribosyltransferase and cholera toxin showed partially different radio active bands. When 21-kD MBP was ADP-ribosylated by chicken transferase, the potential for phospholipid vesicle aggregation was reduced in proportion of the degree of ADP-ribosylation. The possibility that ADP-ribosylation of MBP may control stabilization of myelin through regulation of its affinity for phospholipid in vivo would need to be considered.

ADP-ribosylation of proteins has been observed in numerous animal tissues including chicken heterophils, rat brain, human platelets, and mouse skeletal muscle. ADP-ribosylation in these tissues is thought to modulate critical cellular functions such as muscle cell development, actin polymerization, and cytotoxic T lymphocyte proliferation. Specific substrates of the ADP-ribosyltransferases have been identified; the skeletal muscle transferase ADP-ribosylates integrin alpha 7 whereas the chicken heterophil enzyme modifies the heterophil granule protein p33 and the CTL enzyme ADP-ribosylates the membrane-associated protein p40. Transferase sequence has been determined which should assist in elucidating the role of ADP-ribosylation in cells. There is sequence similarity among the vertebrate transferases and the rodent RT6 alloantigens. The RT6 family of proteins are NAD glycohydrolases that have been shown to possess auto-ADP-ribosyltransferase activity whereas the mouse Rt6-1 is also capable of ADP-ribosylating histone. Absence of RT6+ T cells has been associated with the development of an autoimmune-mediated diabetes in rodents. Humans have an RT6 pseudogene and do not express RT6 proteins. The reversal of ADP-ribosylation is catalyzed by ADP-ribosylarginine hydrolases, which have been purified and cloned from rodent and human tissues. In principle, the transferases and hydrolases could form an intracellular ADP-ribosylation regulatory cycle. In skeletal muscle and lymphocytes, however, the transferases and their substrates are extracellular membrane proteins whereas the hydrolases described thus far are cytoplasmic. In cultured mouse skeletal muscle cells, processing of the ADP-ribosylated integrin alpha 7 was carried out by phosphodiesterases and possibly phosphatases, leaving a residual ribose attached to the (arginine)protein. Several bacterial toxin and eukaryotic mono-ADP-ribosyltransferases, and perhaps other NAD-utilizing enzymes such as the RT6 alloantigens share regions of amino acid sequence similarity, which form, in part, the catalytic site. The catalytic cleft, found in the bacterial toxins that have been studied thus far, contains a critical glutamate and other amino acids that function to position NAD for nucleophilic attack at the N-glycosidic linkage, for either ADP-ribose transfer or NAD hydrolysis. Amino acid differences among the transferases at the active site may be required for accommodating the different ADP-ribose acceptor molecules.

A rat T-cell antigen RT6.1 catalyzes NAD glycohydrolysis but not ADP-ribose transfer, even though the antigen has significant amino acid identity with eucaryotic arginine-specific ADP-ribosyltransferases. Since a highly conserved Glu in the catalytic region of these transferases is substituted with Gln at position 207 in RT6.1, we replaced the Gln with Glu, Asp, or Ala, by site-directed mutagenesis. The Glu-207 mutant produced ADP-ribosylarginine during incubation with NAD and L-arginine. The Asp-207 mutant but not the Ala-207 mutant produced ADP-ribosylarginine, but at a lower rate. In contrast, these mutations affected NAD glycohydrolase activity of RT6.1 to a much lesser extent. Kinetic studies of transferase reaction revealed that kcat of the Glu-207 mutant increased compared to findings with the Asp-207 mutant. Moreover, the mouse homologue of rat RT6 lost arginine-specific ADP-ribosyltransferase activity when Glu-207 was replaced with Gln. Thus, Glu-207 in rodent T-cell RT6 antigens is essential for transfer reaction of ADP-ribose to arginine.

Effects of ADP-ribosylation of skeletal muscle alpha-actin by Clostridium perfringens iota toxin and by turkey erythrocyte ADP-ribosyltransferase A on profilin-regulated nucleotide exchange and ATPase activity were compared. ADP-ribosylation of actin at Arg 177 by Clostridium perfringens iota toxin increased the nucleotide dissociation rate from 2.2 x 10(-3) s-1 to 4.5 x 10(-3) s-1 without affecting the profilin-induced stimulation of nucleotide exchange. In contrast, ADP-ribosylation of actin at Arg95/Arg372 induced by turkey erythrocyte transferase decreased the nucleotide dissociation rate to 1.5 x 10(3) s-1 and inhibited the profilin-induced stimulation of nucleotide exchange. Whereas toxin-induced ADP-ribosylation at Arg177 blocked actin ATPase, basal G-actin ATPase was not altered by ADP-ribosylation at Arg95/Arg372 but inhibited profilin effects on actin ATPase.

Exocytosis is a common phenomenon in neutrophil functions. We earlier reported the co-localization of arginine-specific ADP-ribosyltransferase [EC 2.4.2.31] and its target protein p33 (mim-1 protein) in cytoplasmic granules in chicken polymorphonuclear leukocytes (so-called heterophils) [Mishima, K., Terashima, M., Obara, S., Yamada, K., Imai, K., and Shimoyama, M. (1991) J. Biochem. 110, 388-394]. In the present study, we obtained evidence that the transferase and p33 were released into the extracellular space by the stimulus of calcium ionophore A23187 or serum-opsonized zymosan, but scarcely by phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) or N-formyl-Met-Leu-Phe (fMLP), thereby indicating the co-localization of the transferase and p33 in the azurophilic granules, and not in specific granules. [32P]ADP-ribosylation of p33 occurred in the extracellular space, induced by the stimulus of A23187 or opsonized zymosan in the presence of [32P]NAD. Our findings are interpreted to mean that heterophil transferase and p33 may be involved in neutrophil functions during processes of inflammation.

Rat RT6 proteins, and perhaps mouse Rt6, identify a set of immunoregulatory T lymphocytes. Rat RT6.1 (RT6.1) and rat RT6.2 (RT6. 2) are NAD glycohydrolases, which catalyze auto-ADP-ribosylation, but not ADP-ribosylation of exogenous proteins. Mouse Rt6.1 (mRt6.1) also catalyzes auto-ADP-ribosylation. The activity of mouse cytotoxic T lymphocytes is reportedly inhibited by ADP-ribosylation of surface proteins, raising the possibility that mRt6 may participate in this process. The reactions catalyzed by mRt6, would, however, need to be more diverse than those of the rat homologues and include the ADP-ribosylation of acceptors other than itself. To test this hypothesis, mRt6.1 and rat RT6.2 were synthesized in Sf9 insect cells and rat mammary adenocarcinoma (NMU) cells. mRt6.1, but not rat RT6.2, catalyzed the ADP-ribosylation of guanidino-containing compounds (e.g. agmatine). Unlike RT6.2, mRt6.1 was a weak NAD glycohydrolase. In the presence of agmatine, however, the ratio of [adenine-14C]ADP-ribosylagmatine formation from [adenine-14C]NAD to [carbonyl-14C]nicotinamide formation from [carbonyl-14C]NAD was approximately 1.0, demonstrating that mRt6.1 is primarily a transferase. ADP-ribosylarginine hydrolase, which preferentially hydrolyzes the alpha-anomer of ADP-ribosylarginine, released [U-14C]arginine from ADP-ribosyl[U-14C]arginine synthesized by mRT6.1, consistent with the conclusion that mRt6.1 catalyzes a stereospecific Sn2-like reaction. Thus, mRt6.1 is an NAD:arginine ADP-ribosyltransferase capable of catalyzing a multiple turnover, stereospecific Sn2-like reaction.

A protein mono-ADP-ribosyltransferase (ADPRT), anchored in the cell membrane as a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored cell-surface enzyme, was recently described on murine cytotoxic T cells (CTL). Expression of this enzyme was shown to exert regulatory functions on CTL proliferation and cytotoxic activity, presumably by modulating activity of the protein tyrosine kinase p56(lck), which is associated with the CTL co-receptor CD8. Here we report on the molecular cloning and expression of this important regulatory enzyme. The ADPRT coding sequence was derived by making use of ADPRT sequence homologies from different vertebrate species. A cDNA fragment of the enzyme coding sequence was generated by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) from murine T-cell lymphoma SL12, which expresses the cell-surface ADPRT. The cDNA fragment was found to share extensive homology with the corresponding sequences of human and rabbit muscle ADPRT. In Northern blot hybridization, this cDNA fragment generates a strong hybridization signal with RNA from murine heart and skeletal muscle. Weak signals are seen with SL12, thymus, and spleen. Therefore, a murine skeletal muscle cDNA library was used to identify and obtain the coding sequence of the ADPRT gene. It is shown that the nucleic acid open reading frame sequence of the murine skeletal muscle gene shares 80.3% and 76.3% homology with the sequences of the human and rabbit muscle genes, respectively. Semiquantitative RT-PCR with intron-spanning primers shows that the ADPRT mRNA is present in lymphoid organs, cytotoxic T cells, and T-cell lines. Transfection of the ADPRT coding sequence into EL4 cells results in expression of the enzyme as a functional GPI-anchored cell-surface protein, able to ADP-ribosylate the arginine analog agmatine as well as cell-surface molecules.

Transfection of NMU (rat mammary adenocarcinoma) cells with NAD:arginine ADP-ribosyltransferase cDNAs from Yac-1 murine lymphoma cells or rabbit muscle increased NAD glycohydrolase and ADP-ribosyltransferase activities. The ADP-ribosyltransferase activity was released from transformed NMU cells by phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC) and hence glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored, whereas the NAD glycohydrolase (NADase) activity remained cell-associated. By gel permeation chromatography, the size of the PI-PLC-released transferase was approximately 40 kDa and that of the detergent-solubilized NADase was approximately 100 kDa. Using polyclonal antibodies against rabbit muscle transferase on Western blots, approximately 18- and approximately 30-kDa band were visualized among proteins from the NADase fractions and 38-40-kDa bands with protein from the transferase fractions. Incubation of blots with [32P]NAD led to the incorporation of radioactivity into the immunoreactive transferase bands of 38 kDa and the immunoreactive NADase band of approximately 18 kDa. These data suggest that proteolysis of ADP-ribosyltransferase synthesized in transformed NMU cells might result in the formation of aggregates of an 18-kDa NAD glycohydrolase. A fusion protein with glutathione S-transferase linked to the amino terminus of Yac-1 transferase, from which the amino-terminal 121 amino acids had been deleted (GST-Yac-1-delta121), exhibited NADase, but not transferase, activity. The size of the recombinant fusion protein was similar to that of the proteolytic fragment seen in NMU cells transformed with transferase cDNA. These results are compatible with the conclusion that the NAD glycohydrolase activity was generated in NMU cells by proteolysis of ADP-ribosyltransferase, with release of a carboxyl-terminal fragment that possesses glycohydrolase but not transferase activity, i.e. the carboxyl-terminal portion of the transferase can exist as a catalytically active NADase.

14-3-3 proteins are a family of conserved dimeric molecules that bind to a range of cellular proteins involved in signal transduction and oncogenesis. Our solution of the crystal structure of 14-3-3zeta revealed a conserved amphipathic groove that may allow the association of 14-3-3 with diverse ligands (Liu, D., Bienkowska, J., Petosa, C., Collier, R. J., Fu, H., and Liddington, R. (1995) Nature 376, 191-194). Here, the contributions of three positively charged residues (Lys-49, Arg-56, and Arg-60) that lie in this Raf-binding groove were investigated. Two of the charge-reversal mutations greatly (K49E) or partially (R56E) decreased the interaction of 14-3-3zeta with Raf-1 kinase, whereas R60E showed only subtle effects on the binding. Interestingly, these mutations exhibited similar effects on the functional interaction of 14-3-3zeta with another target protein, exoenzyme S (ExoS), an ADP-ribosyltransferase from Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The EC50 values of 14-3-3zeta required for ExoS activation increased by approximately 110-, 5-, and 2-fold for the K49E, R56E, and R60E mutants, respectively. The drastic reduction of 14-3-3zeta/ligand affinity by the K49E mutation is due to a local electrostatic effect, rather than the result of a gross structural alteration, as evidenced by partial proteolysis and circular dichroism analysis. This work identifies the first point mutation (K49E) that dramatically disrupts 14-3-3zeta/ligand interactions. The parallel effects of this single point mutation on both Raf-1 binding and ExoS activation strongly suggest that diverse associated proteins share a common structural binding determinant on 14-3-3zeta.

Interaction between the gamma subunit (Pgamma) of cGMP phosphodiesterase and the alpha subunit (Talpha) of transducin is a key step for the regulation of cGMP phosphodiesterase in retinal rod outer segments. Here we have utilized a combination of specific modification by an endogenous enzyme and site-directed mutagenesis of the Pgamma polycationic region to identify residues required for the interaction with Talpha. Pgamma, free or complexed with the alphabeta subunit (Palphabeta) of cGMP phosphodiesterase, was specifically radiolabeled by prewashed rod membranes in the presence of [adenylate-32P]NAD. Identification of ADP-ribose in the radiolabeled Pgamma and radiolabeling of arginine-replaced mutant forms of Pgamma indicate that both arginine 33 and arginine 36 are similarly ADP-ribosylated by endogenous ADP-ribosyltransferase, but only one arginine is modified at a time. Pgamma complexed with Talpha (both GTP- and GDP-bound forms) was not ADP-ribosylated; however, agmatine, which cannot interact with Talpha, was ADP-ribosylated in the presence of Talpha, suggesting that a Pgamma domain containing these arginines is masked by Talpha. A Pgamma mutant (R33,36K), as well as wild type Pgamma, inhibited both GTP hydrolysis of Talpha and GTP binding to Talpha. Moreover, GTP-bound Talpha activated Palphabeta that had been inhibited by R33,36K. However, another Pgamma mutant (R33,36L) could not inhibit these Talpha functions. In addition, GTP-bound Talpha could not activate Palphabeta inhibited by R33,36L. These results indicate that a Pgamma domain containing these arginines is required for its interaction with Talpha, but not with Palphabeta, and that positive charges in these arginines are crucial for the interaction.
