Endogenous membrane protein kinase activity and protein kinase substrates have been found in membrane fractions enriched in the acetylcholine receptor that were prepared from the electric organ of Torpedo californica. Phosphorylation of four polypeptides is stimulated 9-fold by K+. The specific cholinergic ligand, carbachol, inhibited phosphorylation of these four polypeptides by 72% in the presence of 1mM Na+ and 100 mM K+. The 65,000-dalton component of the acetylcholine receptor in the membrane fraction appears to be phosphorylated by the endogenous protein kinase. These results suggest that protein phosphorylation may play an important role in synaptic events at nicotinic cholinergic synapses.

Purified postsynaptic membranes can be used as a model system to study the regulation of synaptic membrane proteins. These membranes contain protein kinase activity that phosphorylates the acetylcholine receptor (AChR). We find that diphenylhydantoin (DPH) interacts with these membranes to inhibit phosphorylation of the membrane-bound AChR. DPH appears to alter the availability of postsynaptic membrane proteins for phosphorylation by a synaptic membrane protein kinase. The concentration of DPH that produces half-maximal inhibition of AChR phosphorylation is about 5 x 10(-5) M. This suggests that one of the specific effects of DPH in the nervous system may be related to inhibition of phosphorylation of postsynaptic membrane proteins.

Membrane ghosts were prepared from red blood cells of normal and hereditary spherocytosis (HS) subjects. Time dependent phosphorylation studies of the membrane (in the presence of gamma labelled AT32P) showed that the HS membrane appeared to incorporate less phosphate than the normal membrane but the results were not significantly different. Using the initial linear rate of phosphorylation and varying the ATP concentration, it was found that the Michaelis constant (Km) for the normal membrane was 24.8 microns ATP and Vmax was 0.120 nmol phosphate bound/mg membrane protein/min. These values for the HS membrane were found to be 39.0 and 0.118 respectively. In one family the affected mother and son each showed a positive cooperativity effect for similar reciprocal plots. This indicates that phosphorylation of various HS membrane proteins may be an ordered rather than random process and suggests biochemical heterogencity of the HS condition. The constants, Km and Vmax, however, were found to be similar to the rest of HS subjects studied. Crude extracts of the enzyme protein kinase, which catalyses the membrane phosphorylation, showed no significant difference in the Km and Vmax value in HS compared with that from normal red cells. The kinetic difference in phosphorylation is probably due to abnormalities in the membrane protein(s) which accept the phosphate from protein kinase in HS red cells.

The effect of thrombin on the phosphorylating activity of platelet membranes was compared to that of trypsin. Preincubation of non-32P phosphorylated platelet membranes with or without either of these two enzymes resulted in a considerable loss of membrane protein kinase activity which was most severe when trypsin was used. Protein kinase activity and endogenous protein acceptors decreased in parallel. 32P-phosphorylated membranes showed a slow but progressive loss of label which was accelerated by trypsin. Thrombin under these conditions prevented the loss of 32P-phosphate. These results are interpreted to indicate a thrombin-induced destruction of a phosphoprotein phosphatase. The protein kinase activity of phosphorylated platelet membranes using endogenous or exogenous protein substrates showed a significant reduction compared to non-phosphorylated membranes suggesting a deactivation of protein kinase by phosphorylation of platelet membranes. Neither thrombin nor trypsin caused a qualitative change in the membrane polypeptides accepting 32P-phosphate but resulted in quantitative alterations of their ability to become phosphorylated.

The association of an RNA-dependent RNA polymerase activity with virions of pike fry rhabdovirus has been demonstrated by both in vitro and in vivo studies. The temperature optimum for the in vitro assay is around 20 C, although enzyme activity can be observed at 4 C. Preparations of pike fry virus possess a glycoprotein, a membrane protein, a nucleoprotein, an L protein, and a phosphoprotein, as well as an RNA of about 3.8 times 10-6 mol wt. A protein kinase activity has been found associated with virus preparations. In vitro RNA product analyses indicate that the virus-associated enzyme functions principally as a transcriptase synthesizing viral-complementary, heteropolymeric RNA.

The effect of a cAMP-dependent secretogogue (VIP) on the phosphorylation of an endogenous, membrane-bound protein (pp170) was assessed in an intact cell preparation from the avian salt gland. The addition of VIP, in the presence of 100 microM isobutylmethylxanthine, resulted in a concentration-dependent increase in phosphorylation of pp170. This effect was rapid and transient with a 3-5-fold increase in phosphorylation occurring 1 min after the addition of VIP. Under similar incubation conditions, VIP stimulated a 4.6-fold increase in cAMP accumulation that paralleled phosphorylation. Exposure of cells to either forskolin or 8-Br-cAMP resulted in a 5-8-fold increase in the phosphorylation of pp170. The effect of forskolin was dose dependent with an EC50 similar to that for stimulation of secretion (35 nM). These results implicate an involvement for a cAMP-dependent protein kinase in the phosphorylation of pp170. The identity of pp170 was assessed utilizing a monoclonal antibody (Q3) directed against pp170. Q3 recognized a single 170-kDa band on Western blots of salt gland membrane protein. Immunoprecipitation of pp170 from salt gland cells resulted in the selective extraction of a single protein whose phosphorylation state was increased approximately 5-fold in response to carbachol or VIP. The identity of pp170 was established using two criteria. First, Q3 recognized affinity-purified Na:K:Cl cotransporter preparations from shark rectal gland membranes. Second, pp170 was selectively immunoprecipitated by monoclonal antibodies (J3, J4, and J7) that recognize different epitopes of the shark transport protein. These results suggest that pp170 is homologous to the shark rectal gland Na-K-Cl cotransporter, and thus the proteins may be functionally similar.

Regulation of Cl conductance by protein kinase A may play a role in control of endosomal acidification [Bae, H.-R., & Verkman, A. S. (1990) Nature, 348, 637-639]. To investigate the mechanism of kinase A action, cell-free measurements of Cl transport and membrane protein phosphorylation were carried out in apical endocytic vesicles from rabbit kidney proximal tubule. Cl transport was measured by a stopped-flow quenching assay in endosomes labeled in vivo with the fluorescent Cl indicator 6-methoxy-N-(3-sulfopropyl)quinolinium. Phosphorylation was studied in a purified endosomal preparation by SDS-PAGE and autoradiography of membrane proteins labeled by [gamma-32P]ATP. Endosomes had a permeability (PCl) for conductive Cl transport of 3.1 x 10(-8) cm/s at 23 degrees C which was stilbene inhibitable. PCl was increased by 90 +/- 20% by a 10-min preincubation with the catalytic subunit of kinase A (PKA, 10 units/mL) and MgATP (0.5 mM) with anion selectivity Cl greater than I greater than Br. The increase in PCl was blocked by 100 microM N-[2-(methylamino)ethyl]-5-isoquinolinesulfonamide (H-8) and was reversed by addition of alkaline phosphatase (AP, 40 units/mL) after incubation with PKA and MgATP; the increase in PCl was not blocked by pretreatment with AP.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

The protein kinase activity in cytosol was similar in control, ischemic, and reperfused hearts; however, a 1.5-fold increase in membrane protein kinase activity was induced by ischemia and reperfusion. The H-7 inhibitable cytosolic protein kinase activity decreased by 40% with 30 min ischemia, while that of membrane fraction increased 1.8-fold. However, the CGS9343B inhibitable protein kinase activity in cytosolic fractions was unaffected by ischemia, while that of membrane increased by about 1.7-fold. These results suggest that myocardial ischemia is associated with enhanced protein kinase C and calmodulin-dependent kinase activities in membrane fraction. Furthermore, the results also suggest a translocation of protein kinase C activity from the cytosol to the membrane. Reperfusion of ischemic myocardium did not result in any further increase of protein kinase C and calmodulin-dependent kinase activities in the membrane. These enhanced protein kinase activities also resulted in an enhanced phosphorylation of endogenous membrane proteins. The creatine kinase released from the heart was increased by both ischemia and reperfusion. Therefore, these results suggest that biochemical cascades of reactions caused by enhanced membrane protein kinase C and calmodulin-dependent kinase activities may contribute to ischemic-reperfusion injury.

Previous studies (F. C. Purves, D. Spector, and B. Roizman, J. Virol. 65:5757-5764, 1991) have shown that the protein kinase encoded by the U(S)3 gene mediates posttranslational modification of a viral phosphoprotein with an apparent M(r) of 30,000 encoded by the UL34 gene. Here we report the following. (i) UL34 protein is not phosphorylated in cells infected with recombinant viruses deleted in the U(S)3 gene. (ii) Several new phosphoproteins (apparent M(r)s, 25,000 to 35,000) are present in cells infected with recombinant viruses deleted in the U(S)3 gene or with viruses carrying a mutation in the UL34 gene that precluded phosphorylation of the UL34 gene product by the U(S)3 protein kinase, but not in cells infected under conditions which permit phosphorylation of the UL34 protein. These proteins are genetically unrelated to the product of the UL34 gene. (iii) Polyclonal rabbit anti-UL34 protein serum precipitated not only the UL34 protein but also the other (25,000- to 35,000-M(r)) phosphoproteins from lysates of cells infected with U(S)3- virus. (iv) The UL34 gene product is a membrane protein inasmuch as the polyclonal anti-UL34 serum reacted with surfaces of intact, unfixed, infected cells and the antigen-antibody complex formed in this reaction contained the UL34 protein. (v) Small amounts of the UL34 protein were present in virions of infected cells. We conclude that the UL34 gene product is a membrane protein exclusively phosphorylated by the U(S)3 protein kinase which can either directly or indirectly form complexes with several other phosphoproteins. Experiments done thus far suggest that these phosphoproteins are present only under conditions in which the UL34 protein is not phosphorylated.

Experiments were carried out to obtain information about the mechanism underlying the fast action of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3) in skeletal muscle. N-2'-o-dibutyryladenosine-3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (dbcAMP), similarly as 1,25(OH)2D3 (5 x 10(-10) M), rapidly increased 45Ca uptake by soleus muscle from vitamin D-deficient chicks (+25% and +98% at 3 min and 10 min, respectively) in a dose-dependent manner. The effects of the cAMP analog (10 microM) and 1,25(OH)2D3 could be abolished by the Ca(2+)-channel blocker nifedipine and the calmodulin antagonist flufenazine. Calmodulin binding by two muscle microsomal proteins of 28 kDa and 30 kDa was stimulated within 1 min of exposure of the tissue to 1,25(OH)2D3. Direct effects of the sterol on membrane calmodulin binding were shown with isolated microsomes. The 1,25(OH)2D3-mediated rise of [125I]calmodulin binding to microsomal membranes was dependent on the presence of medium ATP. Forskolin (10 microM) and cAMP (10 microM) also increased [125I]calmodulin binding (+75% and +64%, respectively, with respect to controls). Pretreatment of microsomal membranes with cAMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitor (1 microgram/ml) or addition of alkaline phosphates (1 U/ml) after hormonal treatment caused complete inhibition of 1,25(OH)2D3-induced [125I]calmodulin binding to microsomal membrane proteins. These results imply modifications of membrane protein phosphorylation through the cAMP signal pathway and in turn of calmodulin binding in the mechanism by which 1,25(OH)2D3 rapidly stimulates skeletal muscle Ca2+ uptake.
