cGMP-dependent protein kinase from bovine lung has been purified to homogeneity using 8-(2-aminoethyl)-amino adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate/Sepharose. Conditions for adsorption of holoenzyme to the affinity chromatography media followed by competitive ligand elution with cGMP have been determined. The holoenzyme of 150,000 molecular weight is composed of two 74,000 molecular weight subunits which are linked in part by disulfide bridges. Two moles of cGMP are bound per mol of holoenzyme compatible with 1 mol of cGMP/monomer. Dissociation of subunits does not occur upon cGMP binding and protein kinase activation. cGMP-dependent protein kinase has an isoelectric point of 5.4 and a Stokes radius of 50 A. The enzyme is asymmetric with an f/f0 of 1.42 and an axial ratio of 7.4. Determination of enzyme activity at varying concentrations of ATP revealed that cGMP increased the Vmax for ATP without significant effect on the Km. The purified enzyme was maximally active at 5 mM Mg2+; other divalent cations could not substitute for Mg2+. In the presence of Mg2+, strong inhibitory effects of other cations were observed with Mn2+, greater than Zn2+, greater than Co2+ greater than Ca2+. Although maximal cGMP-dependence was observed at pH 5.7 to 7.0, basal activity rose at higher pH values to approach activity observed with cGMP. A molecular model comparing cGMP-dependent protein kinase with cAMP-dependnet protein kinase is presented.

The alpha beta heterodimeric form of untreated hepatic insulin receptor was a substrate for casein kinase 2, whereas the alpha 2 beta 2 heterotetramer was not. On the contrary, autophosphorylation was detected only in the heterotetramer. Dissociation of the receptor by treatment with dithiothreitol decreased its autophosphorylation but favoured phosphorylation of its beta-subunit by casein kinase 2.

A subpopulation of cells was derived from the Hs431 connective tissue sarcoma cell line which possessed high affinity (estimated Kd = 0.38-0.55 nM) binding sites for human recombinant [125I]-IL-1 alpha. Binding at 4 degrees C was slow approaching equilibrium by 4 hrs. Dissociation of [125I]-IL-1 alpha was also slow and unaffected by high concentrations of cold ligand. The binding site also underwent ligand-induced internalization at 37 degrees C. An Mr = 83,000 protein was identified in affinity crosslinking studies. Despite these similarities to previously reported IL-1 receptors, Hs431 cells did not exhibit biological responses to IL-1 which have been observed in other cell lines. IL-1 did not induce PGE2 or collagenase synthesis. IL-1 also failed to induce ornithine decarboxylase activity (ODC) or stimulate [3H]-thymidine incorporation. In contrast, the Hs431 cells did contain a functional epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor as determined from binding studies, protein kinase activity, induction of ODC, and stimulation of [3H]-thymidine incorporation. Thus, the refractoriness of Hs431 cells to IL-1 was fairly specific and did not result from a generalized defect associated with cell transformation.

Amrinone and milrinone are new cardiotonic drugs that have potent inotropic and vasodilatory properties. The mechanism of action of these agents is controversial, but the positive inotropic component is thought to be due to the inhibition of phosphodiesterase. Because amrinone and milrinone have been shown to be involved primarily in cyclic AMP-mediated processes, we examined the effect of these agents on cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. The results indicate that amrinone and milrinone inhibit cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase activity by competing with ATP but not cyclic AMP binding sites. Dissociation constants (Ki) of amrinone and milrinone for ATP binding sites on protein kinase were calculated to be 100-300 microM and 842 microM, respectively. The phosphodiesterase inhibitor isobutylmethylxanthine (1 mM) had no effect on protein kinase activity. Amrinone and milrinone inhibited the catalytic subunit of protein kinase to the same degree as the holo-enzyme by competitively inhibiting the binding of ATP. Amrinone and milrinone had no effect on phospholipid-sensitive, calcium-dependent protein kinase indicating that there may be differences in the ATP binding sites on these two protein kinases. Inhibition of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase by amrinone and milrinone occurs at concentrations higher than those used clinically. However, because amrinone and milrinone are lipophilic drugs, they may be useful tools for the investigation of protein kinase mediated reactions.

The structure of phospholamban, a 30-kDa oligomeric protein integral to cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum, was probed using ultraviolet absorbance and circular dichroism spectroscopy. Purified phospholamban was examined in three detergents: octyl glucoside, n-dodecyloctaethylene glycol monoether (C12E8) and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). Ultraviolet absorption spectra of phospholamban reflected its aromatic amino acid content: absorption peaks at 275-277 nm and 253, 259, 265 and 268 nm were attributed to phospholamban's one tyrosine and two phenylalanines, respectively. Phospholamban phosphorylated at serine 16 by the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase exhibited no absorbance changes when examined in C12E8 or SDS. Circular dichroism spectroscopy at 250-190 nm demonstrated that phospholamban possesses a very high content of alpha-helix in all three detergents and is unusually resistant to denaturation. Dissociation of phospholamban subunits by boiling in SDS increased the helical content, suggesting that the highly ordered structure is not dependent upon oligomeric interactions. The purified COOH-terminal tryptic fragment of phospholamban, containing residues 26-52 and comprising the hydrophobic, putative membrane-spanning domain, also exhibited a circular dichroism spectrum characteristic of alpha-helix. Circular dichroism spectra of phosphorylated and dephosphorylated phospholamban were very similar, indicating that phosphorylation does not alter phospholamban secondary structure significantly. The results are consistent with a two-domain model of phospholamban in which each domain contains a helix and phosphorylation may act to rotate one domain relative to the other.

The mouse wild type and four mutant regulatory type I (RI) subunits were expressed in Escherichia coli and subjected to kinetic analyses. The defective RI subunits had point mutations in either cAMP-binding site A (G200/E), site B (G324/D, R332/H), or in both binding sites. In addition, a truncated form of RI which lacked the entire cAMP-binding site B was generated. All of the mutant RI subunits which bound [3H]cAMP demonstrated more rapid rates of cAMP dissociation compared to the wild type RI subunit. Dissociation profiles showed only a single dissociation component, suggesting that a single nonmutated binding site was functional. The mutant RI subunits associated with purified native catalytic subunit to form chromatographically separable holoenzyme complexes in which catalytic activity was suppressed. Each of these holoenzymes could be activated but showed varying degrees of cAMP responsiveness with apparent Ka values ranging from 40 nM to greater than 5 microM. The extent to which the mutated cAMP-binding sites were defective was also shown by the resistance of the respective holoenzymes to activation by cAMP analogs selective for the mutated binding sites. Kinetic results support the conclusions that 1) Gly-200 of cAMP-binding site A and Gly-324 or Arg-332 of site B are essential to normal conformation and function, 2) activation of type I cAMP-dependent protein kinase requires that only one of the cAMP-binding sites be functional, 3) mutational inactivation of site B (slow exchange) has a much more drastic effect than that of site A on increasing the Ka of the holoenzyme for cAMP, as well as in altering the rate of cAMP dissociation from the remaining site of the free RI subunit. The strong dependence of one cAMP-binding site on the integrity of the other site suggests a tight association between the two sites.

A mutant form of the type I regulatory subunit (RI) of cAMP-dependent protein kinase has been cloned and sequenced (Clegg, C. H., Correll, L. A., Cadd, G. C., and McKnight, G. S. (1987) J. Biol. Chem. 262, 13111-13119) which contains two point mutations in the site B cAMP-binding site, a Gly to Asp at position this report, the effect of each independent mutation on the rate of dissociation of cAMP from RI, the cAMP-mediated activation of holoenzyme and the inducibility of cAMP-responsive genes has been characterized. Dissociation of cAMP from either recombinant wild type RI or the B1 mutant demonstrated biphasic kinetics, indicating two sites with different affinities for cAMP. Dissociation from the B2 subunit, however, was monophasic and very rapid indicating that site B had been destroyed and that the rate of dissociation from site A was increased. The cAMP activation constants (Ka) of the wild type and B1 holoenzymes were 40 and 188 nM, respectively, and demonstrated positive cooperativity, with Hill coefficients of 1.61 for the wild type and 1.67 for B1. The B2 holoenzyme required much greater concentrations of cAMP, 4.7 microM, for half-maximal activation and did not display positive cooperativity. Constitutive expression in mouse AtT20 pituitary cells of the B1 mutant resulted in only a small shift in the Ka for kinase activation in these cells compared with B2 expression which increased the Ka by more than 100-fold. Transient expression of the B1 subunit in human JEG-3 choriocarcinoma cells inhibited forskolin activation of a cAMP-responsive promoter by 35% whereas similar expression of the B2 RI subunit inhibited the response by 90%. These results suggest that the Gly to Asp mutation at amino acid 324 completely blocks cAMP binding to site B whereas the Arg to His mutation at position 332 causes a more subtle alteration in cAMP binding. Expression of either mutant RI in animal cells results in a dominant repression of cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity and cAMP-dependent protein kinase-mediated processes.

The glycogen-associated form of protein phosphatase-1 (PP-1G) is a heterodimer comprising a 37-kDa catalytic (C) subunit and a 161-kDa glycogen-binding (G) subunit, the latter being phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase at two serine residues (site 1 and site 2). Here the amino acid sequence surrounding site 2 has been determined and this phosphoserine shown to lie 19 residues C-terminal to site 1 in the primary structure. The sequence in this region is: (sequence; see text) At physiological ionic strength, phosphorylation of glycogen-bound PP-1G was found to release all the phosphatase activity from glycogen. The released activity was free C subunit, and not PP-1G, while the phospho-G subunit remained bound to glycogen. Dissociation reflected a greater than or equal to 4000-fold decrease in affinity of C subunit for G subunit and was readily reversed by dephosphorylation. Phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of site 2 was rate-limiting for dissociation and reassociation of C subunit. Release of C subunit was also induced by the binding of anti-site-1 Fab fragments to glycogen-bound PP-1G. At near physiological ionic strength, PP-1G and glycogen concentration, site 2 was autodephosphorylated by PP-1G with a t0.5 of 2.6 min at 30 degrees C, approximately 100-fold slower than the t0.5 for dephosphorylation of glycogen phosphorylase under the same conditions. Site 2 was a good substrate for all three type-2 phosphatases (2A, 2B and 2C) with t0.5 values less than those toward the alpha subunit of phosphorylase kinase. At the levels present in skeletal muscle, the type-2A and type-2B phosphatases are potentially capable of dephosphorylating site 2 in vivo within seconds. Site 1 was at least 10-fold less effective than site 2 as a substrate for all four phosphatases. In conjunction with information presented in the following paper in this issue of this journal, the results substantiate the hypothesis that PP-1 activity towards the glycogen-metabolising enzymes is regulated in vivo by reversible phosphorylation of a targetting subunit (G) that directs the C subunit to glycogen--protein particles. The efficient dephosphorylation of site 2 by the Ca2+/calmodulin-stimulated protein phosphatase (2B) provides a potential mechanism for regulating PP-1 activity in response to Ca2+, and represents an example of a protein phosphatase cascade.

Dissociation and reassociation of regulatory (R) and catalytic (C) subunits of cAMP-dependent protein kinases I and II were studied in intact AtT20 cells. Cells were stimulated with 50 microM forskolin to raise intracellular cAMP levels and induce complete dissociation of R and C subunits. After the removal of forskolin from the incubation medium cAMP levels rapidly declined to basal levels. Reassociation of R and C subunits was monitored by immunoprecipitation of cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity using anti-R immunoglobulins. The time course for reassociation of R and C subunits paralleled the loss of cellular cAMP. Total cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity and the ratio of protein kinase I to protein kinase II seen 30 min after the removal of forskolin was the same as in control cells. Similar results were seen using crude AtT20 cell extracts treated with exogenous cAMP and Mg2+. Our data showed that after removal of a stimulus from AtT20 cells inactivation of both cAMP-dependent protein kinase isoenzymes occurred by the rapid reassociation of R and C subunits to form holoenzyme. Our studies also showed that half of the type I regulatory subunit (RI) present in control cells contained bound cAMP. This represented approximately 30% of the cellular cAMP in nonstimulated cells. The cAMP bound to RI was resistant to hydrolysis by cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase but was dissociated from RI in the presence of excess purified bovine heart C. The RI subunits devoid of C may function to sequester cAMP and, thereby, prevent the activation of cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity in nonstimulated AtT20 cells.

Recombinant human immune interferon (HuIFN-gamma) was labeled with [gamma-32P]ATP and cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase from bovine heart to a specific radioactivity of 11,000 Ci/mmol. At least two molecules of phosphate were incorporated per molecule of interferon. The binding of [32P]HuIFN-gamma to human U937 histiocytic lymphoma cells was time dependent, and displaceable by HuIFN-gamma but not by HuIFN-alpha A or HuIFN-beta. The specific binding was saturable with less than 10% nonspecific binding. The dissociation constant of [32P]HuIFN-gamma for U937 interferon receptors was calculated to be 1.5 X 10(-10) M with a total of 1,800 binding sites/cell. Dissociation of bound [32P]IFN-gamma at 24 degrees C exhibited two distinct rates. A fast dissociation with a specific rate constant of 0.141 min-1, and a slow dissociation with a specific rate constant of 0.0027 min-1. The Kd for [32P]HuIFN-gamma was calculated from kinetic constants to be 5.4 X 10(-10) M.
