The gene encoding a catalytically active deletion peptide, the C180 peptide, of the S-1 subunit of pertussis toxin was engineered to facilitate mutagenesis at the Trp-26 (wild-type) coding sequence. A synthetic double-stranded oligonucleotide was inserted into the C180 gene such that all possible codons would be introduced into position 26. Seven individual mutants of the C180 peptide which possessed amino acid substitutions at residue 26 (collectively termed C180W26n peptides) were purified from periplasmic extracts of Escherichia coli. Each C180W26n peptide was present as a single major peptide that had an apparent molecular mass of between 20.9 and 24.5 kDa by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and each showed similar immunoreactivity relative to the C180 peptide. The C180W26n peptides demonstrated marked reduction of both ADP-ribosyltransferase and NAD glycohydrolase activities at 25 nM and 10 microM NAD, respectively. Kinetic analysis of the two most active mutants, C180W26F and C180W26Y, revealed that the major perturbation of NAD glycohydrolase activity was due to an increase (approximately 20-fold) in the Km for NAD between these mutants and the C180 peptide.

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.

Directed mutagenesis was used to probe the functions of Tyr-470 and Tyr-481 of Pseudomonas aeruginosa exotoxin A (ETA) with respect to cytotoxicity, ADP-ribosylation of elongation factor 2 (EF-2), and NAD-glycohydrolase activity. Both of these residues lie in the active site cleft, close to Glu-553, a residue believed to play a direct role in catalysis of ADP-ribosylation of EF-2. Substitution of Tyr-470 with Phe caused no change in any of these activities, thus eliminating the possibility that the phenolic hydroxyl group of Tyr-470 might be directly involved in catalysis. Mutation of Tyr-481 to Phe caused an approximately 10-fold reduction in NAD:EF-2 ADP-ribosyltransferase activity and cytotoxicity but no change in NAD-glycohydrolase activity. The latter mutation did not alter the KM of NAD in the NAD-glycohydrolase reaction, which suggests that the phenolic hydroxyl of Tyr-481 does not participate in NAD binding. We hypothesize that the phenolic hydroxyl of Tyr-481 may be involved in the interaction of the toxin with substrate EF-2.

We investigated the effect on the Ca2+-dependent ATPase activity of ADP-ribosylation of the enzyme from the rabbit skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum. A reconstituted ADP-ribosylation system of Ca2+-dependent ATPase in which the enzyme and ADP-ribosyltransferase, both were partially purified from the vesicles, and poly L-lysine were contained, was preincubated with 1 mM NAD, and the Ca2+-dependent ATPase activity was assayed. The NAD-dependent suppression of the enzyme activity depended on both the concentration of NAD and preincubation-time for the ADP-ribosylation, and was reversed by adding 20 mM arginine during the preincubation. These results taken together with the findings that Ca2+-dependent ATPase is a major acceptor protein for the modification in rabbit skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum [Hara et al. (1987) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 144; 856-862] suggest that Ca2+-transport in the sarcoplasmic reticulum may be regulated through changes in the rate of ADP-ribosylation of Ca2+-dependent ATPase.

Phosphorylase kinase purified from rabbit skeletal muscle was ADP-ribosylated by hen liver nuclear ADP-ribosyltransferase. This modification, as was seen in cAMP-dependent phosphorylation, was observed only in alpha and beta subunits of the phosphorylase kinase and the latter was more rapidly modified. Analysis of the ADP-ribosylated amino acid residue sequenced in alpha and beta subunits showed that both subunits were modified at the area of the arginine residue. The Km for NAD was 0.10 mM and the pH optimum was 9.0. When the ADP-ribosylated phosphorylase kinase was phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase, a reduction in phosphate incorporation occurred with increase in the ADP-ribosylation. ADP-ribosylation also suppressed autophosphorylation, to a lesser degree than observed with cAMP-dependent phosphorylation. The ADP-ribosylation-dependent reduction of phosphorylation resulted in a suppression of the phosphorylation-dependent activation of the phosphorylase kinase. These results together with findings of ADP-ribosyltransferase activity in the rabbit skeletal muscle [Soman, G. et al. (1984) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 120, 973-980] suggest that ADP-ribosylation participates in the regulation of the phosphorylase kinase activity through changes in the rate of phosphorylation.

The cell strain 46BR, derived from an immunodeficient individual, is hypersensitive to the lethal effects of DNA-damaging agents, and of 3-aminobenzamide (3AB), the latter being an inhibitor of the enzyme ADP-ribosyltransferase (ADPRT). This hypersensitivity is not found with the noninhibitory analogue, 3-aminobenzoate. The NAD content of 46BR cells is similar to that of fibroblasts from normal human donors, as is the decrease in NAD content following treatment with dimethylsulphate. Both the activity of ADP-ribosyltransferase and its inhibition by 3AB in permeabilized cells are similar in 46BR and in normal cell strains. High concentrations of 3AB interfere with purine metabolism in cultured cells. Again this effect is similar in 46BR and normal cells. Thus there is no apparent anomaly either in the activity of ADPRT or in the gross effects of 3AB in 46BR. The sensitivity to 3AB may be caused by a defect in a specific acceptor for the ADP-ribose synthesized by ADPRT, or in some as yet undiscovered action of the inhibitor.

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.

Enzymes have been identified in animal tissues that catalyze the mono(ADP-ribosyl)ation of arginine and proteins. Since these NAD:arginine ADP-ribosyltransferases under physiological conditions do not appear to catalyze the degradation of the product ADP-ribose-arginine, the possibility was investigated that a different family of enzymes exists that cleaves the ADP-ribose-arginine linkage. An enzyme was identified in and partially purified from turkey erythrocytes that catalyzed the degradation of ADP-ribose-[14C]arginine synthesized by a salt-activated NAD:arginine ADP-ribosyl-transferase, resulting in the release of a radiolabeled compound that was characterized chromatographically and by amino acid analysis as arginine. This putative arginine product was converted in a reaction dependent on NAD and the NAD:arginine ADP-ribosyltransferase to a compound exhibiting properties characteristic of ADP-ribose-arginine. Action of cleavage enzyme on [adenine-U-14C]ADP-ribose-arginine resulted in the release of a radiolabeled compound that behaved chromatographically like [adenine-U-14C]ADP-ribose. Since degradation of ADP-ribose-arginine appears to generate an arginine moiety that is a substrate for the NAD:arginine ADP-ribosyltransferase, it appears that ADP-ribosylation may be a reversible modification of proteins.

Nuclear matrices were isolated by treatment of isolated HeLa cell nuclei with high DNase I, pancreatic RNase and salt concentrations. ADP-ribosylated nuclear matrix proteins were identified by electrophoresis, blotting and autoradiography. In one experimental approach nuclear matrix proteins were labeled by exposure of permeabilized cells to the labeled precursor [32P]NAD. Alternatively, the cellular proteins were prelabeled with [35S]methionine and the ADP-ribosylated nuclear matrix proteins separated by aminophenyl boronate column chromatography. By both methods bands of modified proteins, though with differing intensities, were detected at 41, 43, 46, 51, 60, 64, 69, 73, 116, 140, 220 and 300 kDa. Approximately 2% of the total nuclear ADP-ribosyltransferase activity, but only 0.07% of the nuclear DNA, was tightly associated with the isolated nuclear matrix. The matrix-associated enzyme catalyzes the incorporation of [32P]ADP-ribose into acid-insoluble products of molecular mass 116 kDa and above, in a 3-aminobenzamide-inhibited, time-dependent reaction. The possible function of ADP-ribosylation of nuclear matrix proteins and of the attachment of ADP-ribosyltransferase to the nuclear matrix in the regulation of matrix-associated biochemical processes is discussed.

The Ha-ras protooncogene product p21, which may be involved in control of cellular growth, is a membrane protein that binds guanine nucleotides and hydrolyzes GTP. p21 GTPase activity is stimulated by lysophosphatidylcholine; a delay in activation was observed unless p21 was incubated with the phospholipid prior to assay. Maximal activation by the phospholipid was observed over a narrow concentration range; the presence in the assay mixture of lysophosphatidylcholine at concentrations above this optimum markedly inhibited p21 GTPase. GTP hydrolysis was also stimulated, but to a lesser degree, by phosphatidylcholine. Phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylserine did not significantly enhance GTPase activity. The stimulatory effect of phospholipid was mimicked, in part, by nonionic detergents. p21 may be related to other GTPases, the regulatory guanine nucleotide-binding G proteins of the hormone-sensitive adenylate cyclase complex and transducin of the retinal light-activated phosphodiesterase system. The G proteins and transducin are heterotrimers; the alpha subunits possess GTPase activity and the beta gamma subunit complex along with agonist-receptor complex or light-activated rhodopsin enhance GTP hydrolysis. p21 GTPase activity was slightly stimulated by rhodopsin, but, in contrast to the GTPase activity of transducin, stimulation was not light-dependent. GTP hydrolysis was enhanced somewhat by beta gamma subunit complex in the absence, but not in the presence, of rhodopsin. Like the G proteins and transducin, activity of p21 was altered by ADP-ribosylation. Modification of p21 catalyzed by an NAD: arginine ADP-ribosyltransferase purified from turkey erythrocytes decreased both GTPase activity and guanine nucleotide binding activity.
