An arginine-specific ADP-ribosyltransferase, named ADP-ribosyltransferase A, was partially purified from human platelets using polyarginine as an ADP-ribose acceptor. When human platelet membranes were incubated with the transferase A in the presence of NAD+, Gs, a stimulatory guanine nucleotide-binding protein of the adenylate cyclase was specifically mono-ADP-ribosylated. ADP-ribose transfer to Gs by this enzyme was suppressed when membranes were pre-ADP-ribosylated by cholera toxin. Incubation of membranes with the transferase A resulted in activation of the adenylate cyclase system. This stimulatory effect of the transferase A on the adenylate cyclase system was inhibited by the presence of polyarginine. These results indicate a role of ADP-ribosyltransferase A in regulation of the adenylate cyclase system via endogenous mono-ADP-ribosylation of Gs.

Eukaryotic cysteine-specific mono(ADP-ribosyl)transferase, named ADP-ribosyltransferase C (Tanuma, S., Kawashima, K. and Endo, H. (1988) J. Biol. Chem. 263, 5485-5489), attenuates inhibition of adenylate cyclase in human platelet membranes by epinephrine. This attenuation appeared to result from mono(ADP-ribosyl)ation by ADP-ribosyltransferase C of the inhibitory guanine nucleotide-binding protein (Gi) of adenylate cyclase. These results indicate a role of ADP-ribosyltransferase C in regulation of hormonal control of the adenylate cyclase system.

We reported previously that the ADP-ribosyltransferase in C1 and D botulinum toxins specifically catalyzes ADP-ribosylation of an Mr 22,000 guanine nucleotide-binding protein and that this substrate named Gb (b = botulinum) has an amino acid sequence homologous to that deduced from the rho gene (Narumiya, S., Sekine, A., and Fujiwara, M. (1988) J. Biol. Chem. 263, 17255-17257). In this study we have determined the amino acid sequence at its ADP-ribosylation site. Purified substrate was [32P]ADP-ribosylated by C1 botulinum toxin and digested with trypsin. The radioactive peptides were isolated by reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography and digested further either with protease V8, with proteases V8 and thermolysin, or with proline endopeptidase and thermolysin. By this procedure three radioactive peptides were obtained, and their amino acid sequences were X-Tyr-Val-Ala-Asp-Ile-Glu, X-Tyr, and Val-Phe-Glu-X-Tyr in which no amino acid peak was found in X. During the sequencing the radioactivity quantitatively adhered to the sequencing filter and was not eluted with either of the identified amino acid residues. Analysis of the protein without the ADP-ribosylation yielded the corresponding sequence as Thr-Val-Phe-Glu-Asn-Tyr which corresponds to Thr37-Tyr42 in the amino acid sequence deduced from the Aplysia rho gene. These results strongly suggest that the asparagine residue is the ADP-ribosylation site in the rho gene product. This ADP-ribose protein bond was stable in 0.5 M hydroxylamine at pH 7.5 at 37 degrees C for at least 5 h. The ADP-ribosylation of this protein affected neither its GTPase- nor its [35S]guanosine 5'-O-thiotriphosphate-binding activity.

Guanine nucleotide-binding (G) proteins are involved in several transmembrane signaling systems. Choleragen (cholera toxin) activates adenylate cyclase by catalyzing the ADP-ribosylation of Gs alpha, the stimulatory G protein of the cyclase system. This reaction is enhanced by another guanine nucleotide-binding protein termed ADP-ribosylation factor or ARF that was purified from bovine brain membranes [R. A. Kahn and A. G. Gilman, Journal of Biological Chemistry (1986) 261, 7906-7911]. It was recently found that this ARF also increases the NAD:agmatine and NAD:protein ADP-ribosyltransferase, NAD glycohydrolase and auto-ADP-ribosylation activities of the toxin. We have purified and characterized two soluble proteins from bovine brain that act in a similar fashion to enhance choleragen activity in each of these reactions. The membrane and soluble factors are all proteins of approximately 19 kDa that require GTP or GTP analogues for activity and are ADP-ribosylated by the toxin. The ARF proteins apparently interact directly with choleragen in a GTP-dependent fashion to increase its catalytic activity and thus are part of a G protein cascade through which the toxin activates adenylate cyclase. The physiological function of the ARF proteins, as well as their possible relationships to the ras oncogene products and/or the family of G proteins that includes Gs alpha, remains to be determined.

Cholera toxin catalyzes the ADP-ribosylation that results in activation of the stimulatory guanine nucleotide-binding protein of the adenylyl cyclase system, known as Gs. The toxin also ADP-ribosylates other proteins and simple guanidino compounds and auto-ADP-ribosylates its AI protein (CTA1). All of the ADP-ribosyltransferase activities of CTAI are enhanced by 19-21-kDa guanine nucleotide-binding proteins known as ADP-ribosylation factors, or ARFs. CTAI contains a single cysteine located near the carboxy terminus. CTAI was immobilized through this cysteine by reaction with iodoacetyl-N-biotinyl-hexylenediamine and binding of the resulting biotinylated protein to avidin-agarose. Immobilized CTAI catalyzed the ARF-stimulated ADP-ribosylation of agmatine. The reaction was enhanced by detergents and phospholipid, but the fold stimulation by purified sARF-II from bovine brain was considerably less than that observed with free CTA. ADP-ribosylation of Gsa by immobilized CTAI, which was somewhat enhanced by sARF-II, was much less than predicted on the basis of the NAD:agmatine ADP-ribosyltransferase activity. Immobilized CTAI catalyzed its own auto-ADP-ribosylation as well as the ADP-ribosylation of the immobilized avidin and CTA2, with relatively little stimulation by sARF-II. ADP-ribosylation of CTA2 by free CTAI is minimal. These observations are consistent with the conclusion that the cysteine near the carboxy terminus of the toxin is not critical for ADP-ribosyltransferase activity or for its regulation by sARF-II. Biotinylation and immobilization of the toxin through this cysteine may, however, limit accessibility to Gsa or SARF-II, or perhaps otherwise reduce interaction with these proteins whether as substrates or activator.

Besides botulinum C2 toxin, Clostridium botulinum type C produces another ADP-ribosyltransferase, which we termed 'C3'. ADP-ribosyltransferase C3 has a molecular mass of 25 kDa and modifies 21-24 kDa protein(s) in platelet and brain membranes. C3 was about 1000 times more potent than botulinum C1 toxin in ADP-ribosylation of membrane proteins. C3-catalysed ADP-ribosylation of the 21-24 kDa protein(s) was decreased by stable guanosine triphosphates, with the potency order GTP[S] much greater than p[NH]ppG greater than p[CH2]ppG. GTP[S] inhibited the ADP-ribosylation caused by C3 by maximally 70-80%, with half-maximal and maximal effects occurring at 0.3 and 10 microM-GTP[S] respectively. The concomitant addition of GTP decreased the inhibitory effect of GTP[S]. GTP[S]-induced inhibition of ADP-ribosylation was resistant to washing of pretreated platelet membranes. The data suggest that the novel botulinum ADP-ribosyltransferase C3 modifies eukaryotic 21-24 kDa guanine nucleotide-binding protein(s).

Choleragen (cholera toxin) activates adenylate cyclase by catalyzing ADP-ribosylation of Gs alpha, the stimulatory guanine nucleotide-binding protein. It was recently found (Tsai, S.-C., Noda, M., Adamik, R., Moss, J., and Vaughan, M. (1987) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 84, 5139-5142) that a bovine brain membrane protein known as ADP-ribosylation factor or ARF, which enhances ADP-ribosylation of Gs alpha, also increases the GTP-dependent NAD:arginine and NAD:protein ADP-ribosyltransferase, NAD glycohydrolase, and auto-ADP-ribosylation activities of choleragen. We report here the purification and characterization of two soluble proteins from bovine brain that similarly enhance the Gs alpha-dependent and independent ADP-ribose transfer reactions catalyzed by toxin. Like membrane ARF, both soluble factors are 19-kDA proteins dependent on GTP or GTP analogues for activity. Maximal ARF effects were observed at a molar ratio of less than 2:1, ARF/toxin A subunit. Dimyristoyl phosphatidylcholine was necessary for optimal ADP-ribosylation of Gs alpha but inhibited auto-ADP-ribosylation of the choleragen A1 subunit and NAD:agmatine ADP-ribosyltransferase activity. It appears that the soluble factors directly activate choleragen in a GTP-dependent fashion. The relationships of the ARF proteins to the ras oncogene products and to the family of guanine nucleotide-binding regulatory proteins that includes Gs alpha remains to be determined.

Both the inhibitory and stimulatory guanine nucleotide-binding proteins of the adenylate cyclase complex were measured in erythrocyte membranes from patients with pseudohypoparathyroidism (PHP). The inhibitory guanine nucleotide-binding protein (Ni) of adenylate cyclase was measured by incorporation of [32P]ADP-ribose from [32P]NAD into the 39K subunit of Ni catalyzed by pertussis toxin. The ADP-ribosyltransferase activity of the toxin was expressed through incubation with dithiothreitol and erythrocyte membranes. Erythrocytes from 12 patients with PHP type I (PHP-I) had Ni values similar to those of 9 normal subjects and 2 patients with pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism. In 6 PHP-I patients, decreased activity of the stimulatory guanine nucleotide-binding protein (Ns) of adenylate cyclase, as determined by reconstitution of adenylate cyclase in the Ns-deficient membranes of cyc-S49 cells, corresponded with the reduced degree of ADP-ribosylation of the 42K subunit of Ns catalyzed by cholera toxin. These data suggest that the defect of Ns results in reduced stimulation of adenylate cyclase in some PHP-I patients, and that enhanced inhibition of the enzyme due to an increase in the 39K subunit of Ni does not account for the biochemical lesion in PHP-I patients.

The catalytic A subunit of cholera toxin (CT-A) is capable of ADP-ribosylating the guanine nucleotide-binding protein, which regulates cell adenylyl cyclase, leading to the life-threatening diarrhea of cholera. Amino acids involved in the enzymatic activity of CT-A have previously been identified. By means of site-directed mutagenesis, an analog of the CT-A subunit gene was created with codon substitutions for both Arg-7 and Glu-112, each of which has been shown to produce subunits lacking ADP-ribosyltransferase activity. The mutated gene fragment was exchanged for the wild-type copy in the previously cloned ctxAB operon from El Tor biotype, Ogawa serotype Vibrio cholerae strain 3083, which produces CT-2. Further, the zonula occludens toxin gene, zot, was inactivated by an insertional mutation to create the new plasmid construct pCT-2*. Additionally, a DNA fragment encoding the B subunit of CT-1 (CT produced by classical biotype, Inaba serotype V. cholerae strain 569B) was exchanged for the homologous part in pCT-2*, resulting in the creation of pCT-1*. These plasmid constructs were introduced into the CT-negative V. cholerae mutant strain JBK70 (E1 Tor biotype, Inaba serotype); CT-A-B+ derivatives CVD101 and CVD103 of classical biotype Ogawa and Inaba serotype strains 395 and 569B, respectively; El Tor biotype Inaba and Ogawa serotype strains C6706 and C7258, respectively, recently isolated in Peru; and O139 (synonym Bengal) strain SG25-1 from the current epidemic in India. Recombinant toxins (CT-1* and CT-2*), partially purified from culture supernatants of transformed JBK70, were shown to be inactive on mouse Y1 adrenal tumor cells and in an in vitro ADP-ribosyltransferase assay. CT-1* and CT-2* reacted with polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies against both A and B subunits of CT. The toxin analogs reacted with antibodies against CT-A and CT-B on cellulose acetate strips and in a GM1 enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay; they reacted appropriately with B-subunit epitype-specific monoclonal antibodies in checkerboard immunoblots, and they formed precipitin bands with GM1-ganglioside in Ouchterlony tests. However, the reactions of the modified proteins with anti-A-subunit monoclonal antibodies were weaker than the reactions with wild-type holotoxins. V, cholerae strains carrying ctxA*, with either ctxB-1 or ctxB-2, and inactivated zot genes were created by homologous recombination. The recombinant strains and the purified toxin analogs were inactive in the infant rabbit animal model.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

ADP-ribosylation factors (ARFs) are approximately20-kDa guanine nucleotide-binding proteins that participate in vesicular transport in the Golgi and other intracellular compartments and stimulate cholera toxin ADP-ribosyltransferase activity. Both GTP binding and hydrolysis are necessary for its physiological functions, although purified mammalian ARF lacks detectable GTPase activity. An ARF GTPase-activating protein (GAP) was purified >15,000-fold from rat spleen cytosol using (NH4)2SO4 precipitation and chromatography on Ultrogel AcA 34, DEAE-Sephacel, heparin-Sepharose, hydroxylapatite, and Ultrogel AcA 44. In fractions ( approximately100-kDa proteins) from Ultrogel AcA 44, a major protein band of approximately50 kDa on SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis correlated with GAP activity, consistent with it being a homodimer, thus differing from an ARF GAP purified from rat liver (Makler, V., Cukierman, E., Rotman, M., Admon, A., and Cassel, D. (1995) J. Biol. Chem. 270, 5232-5237). Purified spleen GAP accelerated hydrolysis of GTP bound to recombinant ARF1, ARF3, ARF5, and ARF6; no effect of NH2-terminal myristoylation was observed. ARF GAP also activated GTP hydrolysis by ARL1, which is 56% identical in amino acid sequence to ARF1, but lacks ARF activity. ARD1 is a 64-kDa guanine nucleotide-binding protein that contains an 18-kDa ARF domain at its carboxyl terminus; the ARF domain lacks the amino-terminal alpha-helix found in native ARF and hence is similar to the amino-terminal truncated mutant Delta13ARF1. Both the ARF domain of ARD1 and Delta13ARF1 were poor substrates for ARF GAP. The non-ARF1 domain of ARD1 enhanced the GTPase activity of the ARF domain, but not that of the ARF proteins and Delta13ARF1, i.e. it lacks the relatively broad substrate specificity exhibited by ARF GAP.
