Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a common lethal genetic disease that manifests itself in airway and other epithelial cells as defective chloride ion absorption and secretion, resulting at least in part from a defect in a cyclic AMP-regulated, outwardly-rectifying Cl- channel in the apical surface. The gene responsible for CF has been identified and predicted to encode a membrane protein termed the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). Identification of a cryptic bacterial promoter within the CFTR coding sequence led us to construct a complementary DNA in a low-copy-number plasmid, thereby avoiding the deleterious effects of CFTR expression on Escherischia coli. We have used this cDNA to express CFTR in vitro and in vivo. Here we demonstrate that CFTR is a membrane-associated glycoprotein that can be phosporylated in vitro by cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies directed against distinct domains of the protein immunoprecipitated recombinant CFTR as well as the endogenous CFTR in nonrecombinant T84 cells. Partial proteolysis fingerprinting showed that the recombinant and non-recombinant proteins are indistinguishable. These data, which establish several characteristics of the protein responsible for CF, will now enable CFTR function to be studied and will provide a basis for diagnosis and therapy.

The complete amino acid sequence of 80 K, the major acidic protein kinase C (PKC) substrate of rat brain, was deduced from a cDNA nucleotide sequence. An open reading frame of 927 bases predicted a protein of 309 amino acid residues (Mr = 29,796, pI = 4.06). 58% of the deduced protein sequence was confirmed by Edman degradation of peptides generated by proteolysis of purified 80 K. The absence of internal methionine residues in the deduced amino acid sequence was confirmed by the inability to cleave 80 K with CNBr. Antiserum raised against a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues 298-309 of the predicted amino acid sequence recognizes the 80-kDa polypeptide in Western blots. The protein shows 65% sequence identity with a closely related PKC substrate from bovine brain. Genomic Southern blot analysis using a probe corresponding to a segment of the 80 K gene devoid of introns showed one major band. Northern blot analysis of rat brain RNA reveals a prominent transcript of 2.2 kilobases which hybridizes to 80 K cDNA. The amino acid composition and hydropathicity plot suggest an extended structure with no hydrophobic domains. The amino acid sequence showed many short repeats as well as several potential phosphorylation sites, five of which were for PKC, one was for both PKC and cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, and one for casein kinase II, and potential glycosylation sites. Indeed, carbohydrate moieties were detected on electroblots of purified 80 K using both a specific glycan stain and Galanthus nivalis plant lectin which binds to terminal D-mannose in the glycan moiety. This is the first time that this major PKC substrate has been identified as a glycoprotein.

mAb against human glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol-linked leucocyte surface Ag CD59 and CD55 immunoprecipitated from detergent lysates of HPB ALL cell line in addition to the respective Ag a common 80-kDa glycoprotein component and (glyco)lipids. The 80-kDa glycoprotein is different from otherwise similar CD44 Ag. The CD59 immunoprecipitate contained also a small amount of the CD55 glycoprotein and the CD55 immunoprecipitate minute amount of the CD59 Ag. These results are interpreted in terms of existence of noncovalent complexes resistant to dissociation by mild detergents and consisting of the 80-kDa glycoprotein, CD59 and CD55 glycoproteins, relatively tightly bound (glyco)lipids and possibly other so far unidentified components. These complexes contain probably also other glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol-linked Ag, as an anti-CD48 mAb immunoprecipitated also an apparently very similar complex. The complexes immunoprecipitated by mAb against the CD55, CD59, and CD48 Ag also contain a protein kinase activity. This type of complexes could not be demonstrated in several other cell types such as RBC, PBMC, and HeLa cells. However, a qualitatively very similar set of components was immunoprecipitated from the murine thymoma EL-4 cell line by an anti-Thy-1 mAb.

Rat brain plasma membranes were solubilized in detergent and a glycoprotein-enriched fraction was obtained by lectin affinity chromatography. This glycoprotein fraction contained insulin receptors, as well as protein kinases capable of phosphorylating some exogenously added substrates such as MAP2 (microtubule associated protein 2) and MBP (myelin basic protein), but not ribosomal protein S6. Phosphoamino acid analysis of MAP2 and MBP showed that phosphotyrosine residues, as well as phosphoserine/phosphotheronine residues, were present in both proteins under basal conditions. Whereas the addition of insulin to the rat brain membrane glycoprotein fraction in vitro had no effect on MAP2 phosphorylation, MBP phosphorylation was stimulated 2.7-fold in response to insulin. This phenomenon was dose-dependent, with half-maximal stimulation of MBP phosphorylation observed with 2 nM insulin. Phosphoamino acid analysis of MBP indicated that insulin stimulated the phosphorylation of tyrosine residues nearly three-fold, whereas the phosphorylation of serine or threonine residues was not increased. These results identify MBP as a substrate for the rat brain insulin receptor tyrosine-specific protein kinase in vitro.

The localization and identity of the human platelet 24 kDa cyclic AMP (cAMP)-dependent phosphoprotein, previously reported to regulate Ca2+ transport, was investigated. It was found to be located on plasma membranes after isolation of these membranes from microsomes. Thus cAMP-dependent regulation of Ca2+ transport was associated with the plasma membrane fraction. Time course studies showed that the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (c-sub) induced a maximal 2-fold stimulation of Ca2+ uptake by the plasma membrane vesicles. This stimulation was dose-dependent up to 15 micrograms of c-sub/ml. The increase in Ca2+ uptake also depended upon the outside Ca2+ concentration, and was maximal at 1 microM. As regards the identity of the phosphoprotein, it was clearly distinct from the beta-subunit of glycoprotein Ib, as after electrophoresis under reduced conditions it appeared as a 24 kDa protein, but under non-reduced conditions it appeared as a 22 kDa and not as a 170 kDa protein. Nevertheless, glycoprotein Ib was certainly present, because it was detected with two polyclonal antibodies raised against its two subunits. Furthermore, the 24 kDa phosphoprotein was also present in membranes isolated from platelets obtained from patients with Bernard Soulier Syndrome; these membranes contain no glycoprotein Ib.

A doublet of proteins (approximately 48,000 Mr) from the Paramecium cell body membrane fits several criteria for the external cAMP chemoreceptor. These criteria include: (i) selective elution from a cAMP affinity column, matching a specificity that could be predicted from the behavioral response and whole-cell binding; (ii) binding to wheat germ agglutinin indicating the presence of carbohydrate moieties indicating surface exposure; and (iii) selective inhibition of the intact cells' chemoresponse to cAMP by antibodies against the doublet. Additional evidence for the existence of a receptor, in general, comes from selective elimination of the cAMP chemoresponse by photoaffinity labeling of while cells with 8-N3-cAMP. The doublet proteins are not identical to the regulatory subunit of a cAMP-dependent protein kinase from Paramecium, the Dictyostelium cAMP chemoreceptor, or the 42-45 kDa range proteins related to the large surface glycoprotein in Paramecium. The doublet proteins are not readily separable and, as in Dictyostelium, may represent two different covalent modification states of the same protein. Amino acid analysis indicates that the proteins are similar, but does not distinguish between the possibilities of proteolysis and covalent modification. Once cloned, this doublet may prove to be only the fifth external, eukaryotic chemoreceptor to be identified.

A major collagen-binding glycoprotein from rat L6 skeletal myoblasts, designated gp46, is phosphorylated in vivo. In this report the relative phosphorylation state of gp46 was examined using isoelectric focusing to identify the phosphorylated and unphosphorylated forms of gp46. Two major and one minor isoform of gp46 were identified that could be related to the phosphorylation state of gp46. The relative percentage of unphosphorylated to phosphorylated gp46 increased 10% in myoblasts heat-shocked at 42 degrees C for 24 h. Treatment of myoblasts with phorbol ester or dibutyryl-cAMP had no effect on the phosphorylation ratio of gp46. Transformation of L6 myoblasts with Rous sarcoma virus, likewise, had no effect on the phosphorylation ratio. However, ras-transformed L6 myoblasts showed a 12% increase in phosphorylation of gp46. These results indicate that gp46 does not undergo large changes in phosphorylation status. Pulse-chase labelling showed that the phosphorylation of gp46 occurred either co-translationally or soon after translation, suggesting that gp46 was phosphorylated by a constitutively active protein kinase.

The deduced amino acid sequences of the open reading frames (ORFs) mapping in the short unique segment (US) of Marek's disease virus (MDV) reported in the accompanying paper have been analysed using computer programs to determine their relationships to herpesvirus proteins. Analysis of the catalytic domains of protein kinases showed that the MDV kinase (MDV PK) was closely related to the alphaherpesvirus protein kinase mapping in US. The results also showed that the MDV PK was more closely related to the cellular kinases that control cell division than to the proto-oncogenes c-src and c-mos and it was predicted that the MDV PK would phosphorylate serine/threonine. The MDV homologue of herpes simplex virus (HSV) glycoprotein D (gD) contained several residues that were conserved in mammalian herpesviruses. In particular, six cysteines were perfectly aligned in all the gDs and there were numerous conservative substitutions. Although only approximately 65% of the MDV homologue of glycoprotein I (gI) of HSV has been sequenced, it was clear that a significant number of amino acid residues including four cysteines were conserved in the gI homologues of MDV and mammalian herpesviruses. Further analysis suggested that MDV gD was more closely related to the gDs of pseudorabies virus (PRV) and equine herpesvirus 1 than to the gD of HSV-1 and HSV-2. It was noted that HSV-2 glycoprotein G (gG), PRV gX and MDV gD were related and that MDV ORF4 was related to MDV gD and probably to HSV-1 gG. The results have shown a clear relationship between the genes of MDV and their counterparts in mammalian alphaherpesviruses and are consistent with the idea that MDV glycoprotein genes in US might have arisen by a process of gene duplication and independent evolution.

The DNA sequence of a 5.5 kbp EcoRI fragment located in the short unique region (US) of the 'highly oncogenic' strain RB1B of Marek's disease virus (MDV) was determined. The sequence contained six open reading frames (ORFs), four of which were homologous to proteins mapping in the US region of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1). These include the homologues of HSV-1 protein kinase, glycoprotein D (gD), glycoprotein I (gI) and US2 which is of unknown function. The MDV ORFs had a marked bias for A or T in the third codon position and analysis of the dinucleotide frequencies showed a marginal deficit in ApG/CpT but no overall deviation of CpG from random expectations. Comparison of genes in the US region of MDV to herpesvirus proteins confirmed and extended our previous observation that MDV is more closely related to alphaherpesviruses than to gamma-herpesviruses. We also showed that MDV possessed a homologue of HSV-1 gD which is lacking in varicella-zoster virus (VZV) but that MDV probably lacked homologues of US4 and US5 of HSV-1. These results show that in contrast to the genes in the long unique region which were grossly collinear in HSV, VZV and MDV, those mapping in US show greater diversity.

Skeletal-muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) comprises two distinct domains, corresponding to the free membrane of longitudinal SR (LSR) and the junctional membrane region of the terminal cisternae (TC), respectively. The junctional membrane contains the ryanodine receptor (RyR)/Ca(2+)-release channel and additional minor protein components that still require biochemical investigation, in relation to excitation-contraction coupling. Recent findings suggested the involvement in this process of a 170 kDa protein [Kim, Caswell, Talvenheimo & Brandt (1990) Biochemistry 29, 9281-9289], also characterized as a phosphoprotein in junctional TC in independent studies [Chu, Submilla, Inesi, Jay & Campbell (1990) Biochemistry 29, 5899-5905]. We show that this protein is a specific substrate of exogenous cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, that it is exposed to the outer surface of intact TC vesicles, and that it co-localizes with the RyR to the junctional membrane. Comparative analysis of LSR and TC subfractions for the 160 kDa glycoprotein sarcalumenin, using Western-blot techniques and specific monoclonal antibodies or concanavalin A as a ligand, revealed that the distribution of this protein within the SR corresponds inversely to both that of the RyR and of the 170 kDa protein. The 170 kDa protein, like sarcalumenin, stains blue with the cationic dye Stains-All and binds 45Ca2+ on blots, but it is uniquely distinguished by its ability to bind 125I-labelled low-density lipoprotein. The similarity of these properties, as well as the pI and solubility properties, to those described for the SR protein, recently purified and cloned and named histidine-rich Ca(2+)-binding protein [HCP; Hofmann, Brown, Lee, Pathak, Anderson & Goldstein (1989) J. Biol. Chem. 264, 8260-8270], makes it very likely that our protein and HCP may indeed be identical. The protein described in the present study differs from sarcalumenin because its migration in SDS/PAGE is accelerated in the presence of Ca2+, a previously reported property of other Ca(2+)-binding proteins [leMaire, Lund, Viel, Champeil & Moller (1989) J. Biol. Chem. 265, 1111-1123], arguing for Ca(2+)-induced protein-conformational changes. Kinase-dependent phosphorylation of our protein is another distinguishing feature, which, although not previously reported for HCP, is consistent with the presence of potential serine/threonine phosphorylation sites in the middle portion of the cloned HCP molecule. The finding that HCP, contrary to early views, selectively binds to the cytoplasmic side of the junctional membrane, together with its newly characterized properties, seem to provide new clues as to a possible role in electromechanical coupling and/or Ca2+ release.
