In rat liver cytosol, rapid ADP-ribosylation of a 52 kDa protein by endogenous ADP-ribosyltransferase(s) was observed. This ADP-ribosylation was stimulated dose-dependently by 14,15-epoxyeicosatrienoic acid (14,15-EET), one of the metabolites of arachidonic acid by NADPH-dependent cytochrome P-450 mono-oxygenase. This stimulatory effect required the presence of GTP or its non-hydrolysable analogues, guanosine 5'-[beta gamma-imido]triphosphate or guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate. Of four regioisomeric EETs, 14,15-EET was the most potent. No stimulatory effect was observed with addition of 14,15-dihydroxyeicosatrienoic acid, a stable metabolite of 14,15-EET. The 52 kDa protein was not ADP-ribosylated by cholera toxin A subunit and pertussis toxin, and was not recognized by anti-Gs alpha and anti-Gi alpha antibodies. However, the 52 kDa protein could be photoaffinity-labelled with 8-azidoguanosine 5'-[alpha-32P]triphosphate. These results suggest that the 52 kDa protein is neither Gs nor Gi, though it may have a GTP-binding site. These results contribute to the understanding of the role of mono-oxygenase metabolites of arachidonic acid in intracellular signal transduction.

Bovine brain microtubule protein, containing both tubulin and microtubule-associated proteins, undergoes ADP-ribosylation in the presence of [14C]NAD+ and a turkey erythrocyte mono-ADP-ribosyltransferase in vitro. The modification reaction could be demonstrated in crude brain tissue extracts where selective ADP-ribosylation of both the alpha and beta chains of tubulin and of the high molecular weight microtubule-associated protein MAP-2 occurred. In experiments with purified microtubule protein, tubulin dimer, the high molecular weight microtubule-associated protein MAP-2, and another high molecular weight mirotubule-associated protein which may be a MAP-1 species were heavily labeled. Tubulin and MAP-2 incorporated [14C]ADP-ribose to an average extent of approximately 2.4 and 30 mol of ADP-ribose/mol of protein, respectively. Assembly of microtubule protein into microtubules in vitro was inhibited by ADP-ribosylation, and incubation of assembled steady-state microtubules with ADP-ribosyltransferase and NAD+ resulted in rapid depolymerization of the microtubules. Thus, the eukaryotic enzyme can ADP-ribosylate tubulin and microtubule-associated proteins to much greater extents than previously observed with cholera and pertussis toxins, and the modification can significantly modulate microtubule assembly and disassembly.

ADP-ribosylation factors (ARFs) are a family of approximately 20-kDa guanine nucleotide-binding proteins initially identified by their ability to enhance cholera toxin ADP-ribosyltransferase activity in the presence of GTP. ARFs have been purified from both membrane and cytosolic fractions. ARF purified from bovine brain cytosol requires phospholipid plus detergent for high affinity guanine nucleotide binding and for optimal enhancement of cholera toxin ADP-ribosyltransferase activity. The phospholipid requirements, combined with a putative role for ARF in vesicular transport, suggested that the soluble protein might interact reversibly with membranes. A polyclonal antibody against purified bovine ARF (sARF II) was used to detect ARF by immunoblot in membrane and soluble fractions from rat pheochromocytoma (PC-12) cell homogenates. ARF was predominantly cytosolic but increased in membranes during incubation of homogenates with nonhydrolyzable GTP analogues guanosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate), guanylyl-(beta gamma-imido)-diphosphate, and guanylyl-(beta gamma-methylene)-diphosphate, and to a lesser extent, adenosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate). GTP, GDP, GMP, and ATP were inactive. Cytosolic ARF similarly associated with added phosphatidylserine, phosphatidylinositol, or cardiolipin in GTP gamma S-dependent fashion. ARF binding to phosphatidylserine was reversible and coincident with stimulation of cholera toxin-catalyzed ADP-ribosylation. These observations may reflect a mechanism by which ARF could cycle between soluble and membrane compartments in vivo.

We reported the purification and characterization of an arginine-specific ADP-ribosyltransferase and acceptor protein p33 in granules of chicken peripheral polymorphonuclear leukocytes (heterophils) [Mishima, K., Terashima, M., Obara, S., Yamada, K., Imai, K. & Shimoyama, M. (1991) J. Biochem. (Tokyo) 110, 388-394]. In the present study, we obtained evidence that chicken non-muscle beta/gamma-actin, skeletal muscle alpha-actin and smooth-muscle gamma-actin were ADP ribosylated by the heterophil ADP-ribosyltransferase. The stoichiometry of ADP-ribose incorporation into these actins was 1.2 mol, 1.0 mol and 2.0 mol ADP-ribose/mol of beta/gamma-actin, alpha-actin and gamma-actin, respectively. The optimal pH for the ADP ribosylation was at pH 8.5, with the respective actin. Km values for NAD were calculated to be 30 microM with beta/gamma-actin, 35 microM with alpha-actin and 20 microM with gamma-actin. The Km values for the actin isoforms were 15 microM for beta/gamma-actin, 2.5 microM for alpha-actin and 10 microM for gamma-actin. ADP ribosylation of actin inhibited its capacity to polymerize, as determined by the increase in fluorescence intensity with N-(1-pyrenyl)iodoacetamide-labelled actin. Filamentous actin (F-actin) polymerized with the respective actin isoform was also ADP ribosylated, although the extent of the modification of F-actin was lower than that of globular actin (G-actin). In situ ADP ribosylation of beta/gamma-actin was evidenced with chicken peripheral heterophils permeabilized with saponin. Thus, the endogenous ADP ribosylation of actin in the heterophils may be involved in the cellular processes such as phagocytosis, secretion and migration.

ADP-ribosylation factors (ARFs) are approximately 20-kDa guanine nucleotide-binding proteins that stimulate the ADP-ribosyltransferase activity of cholera toxin in vitro. Five different human ARFs have been identified by cDNA cloning. Northern analysis using ARF 3-specific oligonucleotides identified two mRNAs of 3.7 and 1.2 kilobases (kb). We report here the complete nucleotide sequence of the 3.7-kb ARF 3 mRNA derived from three overlapping cDNAs isolated from human hippocampus and fetal brain cDNA libraries, as well as the structure of human ARF 3 gene. Sequences of two overlapping genomic clones indicated that the ARF 3 gene spans approximately 18.3 kb and contains five exons and four introns. The conserved amino acid sequences involved in guanine nucleotide binding by ARF 3 are distributed among separate exons, as found in other GTP-binding protein genes. Translation initiates in exon 2 which includes the sequence GXXXXGK that probably participates in phosphate binding and GTP hydrolysis. The sequence DVGG in exon 3 coordinates binding of Mg2+ and the beta-phosphate of GDP. In the ARF 3 gene in contrast to those of other GTP-binding proteins, the sequence NKXD (which is thought to contribute to the specificity of interaction with the guanine ring) is divided between exons 4 and 5. The latter encodes the COOH-terminal 53 amino acids of ARF 3 and contains greater than 2500 base pairs of untranslated DNA. The sequence AATTAA is 19 bases 5' to the polyadenylation addition site of the 3.7-kb mRNA. Multiple transcription start sites were identified by primer extension and S1 and mung bean nuclease analyses. The 5'-flanking region of exon 1 contains neither a TATA nor a CAAT box, but is high in GC content (greater than 70%) and includes three potential Sp1-binding sites (GC box), consistent with the promoters described for several housekeeping genes. The 1.2-kb ARF 3 mRNA is shown to arise by use of an alternative polyadenylation signal (AACAAA) at nucleotide 1091 within the ARF 3 cDNA.

In bovine aortic smooth muscle, GTP-binding activity was equally distributed in the membrane and cytosol fractions. The most abundant GTP-binding proteins (G proteins) in each fraction were purified to near homogeneity and characterized. The most abundant G protein in the membrane fraction had a Mr value of about 22,000 (m22K G) as estimated on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacryl-amide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). m22K G and the human platelet smg p21, a ras p21 like G protein having the same effector domain as ras p21s, were eluted at the same retention time on C4 reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Moreover, m22K G was specifically recognized by an anti-smg p21 polyclonal antibody. m22K G was phosphorylated by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase with a stoichiometry of one phosphate/molecule of protein. The most abundant G protein in the cytosol fraction had a Mr value of about 21,000 (c21K G) as estimated on SDS-PAGE. c21K G was ADP-ribosylated by botulinum ADP-ribosyltransferase and about 0.4 mol of ADP-ribose was maximally incorporated into 1 mol of c21K G. c21K G and the bovine brain rhoA p21, another ras p21 like G protein, were eluted at the same retention time on C4 reversed-phase HPLC and migrated at the same position on two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. These results indicate that the major G proteins in the membrane and cytosol fractions of bovine aortic smooth muscle are smg p21 and rhoA p21, respectively. Possible roles of these G proteins in vascular smooth muscle are discussed.

We have recently devised an activity-blot procedure permitting the detection, on the same nitrocellulose sheet, of the functional poly(ADP ribose) polymerase (PARP) activity as well as the immunostained active peptide(s) after renaturation of the transferred protein(s). Using this technique we have analyzed the PARP activity in higher and lower eukaryotes directly on crude extracts from cell cultures. This procedure has been extended also to in situ screening of bacterial colonies expressing the PARP enzymatic activity.

Pretreatment of rho protein purified from pig brain cytosol with EDTA (3 mM) for 10 min at 30 degrees C inhibited its ADP-ribosylation by Clostridium botulinum C3 ADP-ribosyltransferase by more than 90%. The EDTA effect was not caused by alteration of C3. GDP or GDP beta S present during the pretreatment period completely prevented the decrease in ADP-ribosylation with half-maximal and maximal effects at 3 and 300 microM, respectively. GTP or GTP gamma S were less efficacious in preventing the decrease in ADP-ribosylation, but were more potent (half-maximal and maximal effects at 0.1 and 3 microM, respectively). [32P]ADP-ribose incorporated in pig brain rho by C3 was de-ADP-ribosylated by the enzyme in the presence of nicotinamide and at low pH. Concomitantly, [32P]NAD was formed. The pH optima for ADP-ribosylation and de-ADP-ribosylation were pH 7.5 and 5.5, respectively. De-ADP-ribosylation was most efficient with nicotinamide, less effective with 3-acetylpyridine and not observed with 3-aminopyridine, 4-aminopyridine, 4-acetylpyridine and isonicotinic acid. As observed for the ADP-ribosylation, the de-ADP-ribosylation by C3 was maximal with the GDP-bound form of rho and blocked after EDTA treatment.

Two enzymatic activities of the nuclear enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase or transferase (ADPRT, EC 2.4.2.30), a DNA-associating abundant nuclear protein with multiple molecular activities, have been determined in HL60 cells prior to and after their exposure to 1 microM retinoic acid, which results in the induction of differentiation to mature granulocytes in 4-5 days. The cellular concentration of immunoreactive ADPRT protein molecules in differentiated granulocytes remained unchanged compared to that in HL60 cells prior to retinoic acid addition (3.17 +/- 1.05 ng/10(5) cells), as did the apparent activity of poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase of nuclei. On the other hand, the poly(ADP-ribose) synthesizing capacity of permeabilized cells or isolated nuclei decreased precipitously upon retinoic acid-induced differentiation, whereas the NAD glycohydrolase activity of nuclei significantly increased. The nuclear NAD glycohydrolase activity was identified as an ADPRT-catalyzed enzymatic activity by its unreactivity toward ethenoadenine NAD as a substrate added to nuclei or to purified ADPRT. During the decrease in in vitro poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase activity of nuclei following retinoic acid treatment, the quantity of endogenously poly(ADP-ribosylated) ADPRT significantly increased, as determined by chromatographic isolation of this modified protein by the boronate affinity technique, followed by gel electrophoresis and immunotransblot. When homogenous isolated ADPRT was first ADP-ribosylated in vitro, it lost its capacity to catalyze further polymer synthesis, whereas the NAD glycohydrolase function of the automodified enzyme was greatly augmented. Since results of in vivo and in vitro experiments coincide, it appears that in retinoic acid-induced differentiated cells (granulocytes) the autopoly(ADP-ribosylated) ADPRT performs a predominantly, if not exclusively, NAD glycohydrolase function.

Trypsin digestion of pertussis toxin (PT) preferentially cleaved the S1 subunit at Arg-218 without detectable degradation of the B oligomer. The fragment produced, termed the tryptic S1 fragment, appears to remain associated with the B oligomer. Chymotrypsin digestion of PT also preferentially cleaved the S1 subunit without detectable degradation of the B oligomer. The chymotryptic S1 fragment possessed a slightly lower apparent molecular weight than the tryptic S1 fragment and was more accessible to the respective protease. Trypsin- and chymotrypsin-treated PT and PT required the presence of dithiothreitol and ATP for optimal enzymatic activity. Trypsin-treated PT showed approximately a 2-4-fold higher level of expression of ADP-ribosyltransferase and NAD-glycohydrolase activities than PT. Chymotrypsin-treated PT also exhibited approximately a 2-fold greater level of ADP-ribosyltransferase activity than PT. The observed increase in activity of protease-treated PT was due primarily to a shorter time for activation in PT mediated ADP-ribosylation of transducin. In addition, trypsin-digested PT possessed the same cytotoxic potential for Chinese hamster ovary cell clustering as PT. One possible role for the generation of a proteolytic fragment of the S1 subunit of PT would be to produce a catalytic fragment with increased efficiency for ADP-ribosylation of G proteins in vivo.
