A 10-50-fold, biphasic increase in the rate of 32Pi labeling of eIF-4E was closely correlated with the induction of protein and glycoprotein biosynthesis when resting murine splenic B lymphocytes (B cells) were activated by bacterial lipopolysaccharide or the combination of phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate and ionomycin. The fraction of eIF-4E which was phosphorylated only increased from 46% in resting cells to 83% in lipopolysaccharide-activated cells. This discrepancy between the increase in the fraction of phosphorylated eIF-4E and the increase in 32Pi labeling suggested that the phosphoryl group of eIF-4E turns over slowly in resting B cells compared with activated cells. The turnover rate for the eIF-4E phosphate moiety in lipopolysaccharide-activated cells was rapid (t1/2 = 2 h) in comparison to the eIF-4E polypeptide chain, which did not turn over detectably in 6 h. Neither protein kinase C nor a cyclic nucleotide-dependent protein kinase appeared to be involved in eIF-4E phosphorylation in B cells, based on the observations that the metabolic labeling of eIF-4E by 32Pi was insensitive to the protein kinase inhibitors H-7 and HA1004, and that maximal labeling occurred after protein kinase C activity was "down-regulated" to very low levels in phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate/ionomycin-activated cells. Dephosphorylation in vivo was blocked by okadaic acid (IC50 = 200 nM). These results indicate that a rapid phosphorylation-dephosphorylation of eIF-4E is associated with high translation rates during the activation of B cells, and implicate protein phosphatase-1 (or possibly-2A) in the dephosphorylation of the initiation factor.

Twelve loci have been assigned to rat chromosome 5: aldolase B (ALDOB), atrial natriuretic factor (ANF = pronatriodilatin, PND), D4RP1, DSI1, galactosyltransferase (GGTB2), glucose transporter (GLUT1), interferon alpha 1 and related interferon alpha (INFA), interferon beta (INFB), lymphocyte-specific protein-tyrosine kinase (LCK), oncogene MOS, alpha 2U-globulin (major urinary protein, MUP), and orosomucoid (ORM, also called alpha 1-acid glycoprotein, AGP). Among these, the interferon alpha and beta genes map in the q22-23 region, which also contains a transformation suppressor gene (SAI1). The other loci reside outside this region. This study also indicated that the rat genome contains 2 LCK genes, unlike the human and murine genomes. These new assignments on rat chromosome 5 demonstrate that this chromosome is highly homologous to mouse chromosome 4 and carries synteny groups conserved on human chromosome 9 (interferon alpha and beta, galactosyltransferase, orosomucoid, and aldolase B genes) and on the short arm of human chromosome 1 (MYCL, glucose transporter, protein kinase LCK, and atrial natriuretic factor genes).

Sertoli cells cultured in the presence of germ cells responded by increasing the level of transferrin mRNA 3-fold as determined by solution hybridization and Northern blot analysis. In contrast, the steady state levels of other mRNAs, including sulfated glycoprotein 1 (SGP-1), sulfated glycoprotein 2 (SGP-2), transferrin receptor, regulatory subunit of cAMP dependent protein kinase, and ferritin light chain, were not influenced by coculture with germ cells. The transferrin mRNA stimulatory activity was found in conditioned medium from germ cells but was not associated with germ cell membrane components. The activity was abolished by treatment of the medium with trypsin. Partial characterization and isolation of the protein(s) from conditioned medium indicated that it has an apparent mol wt between 10 and 30 K. Studies using inhibitors of protein and nucleic acid synthesis indicated that the stimulation of transferrin mRNA by germ cell conditioned medium required both transcription and translation. Sertoli cell enriched (germ cell depleted) testes were obtained from male offspring of pregnant females irradiated at the 19th day of gestation. Testicular transferrin mRNA levels from irradiated rats decreased in comparison to levels in the normal rat, whereas SGP-2 mRNA levels were unchanged. These studies demonstrate that germ cell secretions may interact with Sertoli cells to specifically increase the level of transferrin mRNA and that this interaction may be a mechanism by which germ cells regulate the flow of iron across the seminiferous epithelium.

Mononuclear phagocyte activation is characterized by alterations in cellular metabolism and plasma membrane composition. In rodent and human systems, antibodies (conventional heteroantibodies or monoclonal reagents) that identify plasma membrane antigens selectively expressed by activated macrophages and monocytes have been generated. Among these activation-associated determinants is Mo3e (p50,80), a protease-sensitive antigen that is expressed by human monocytes activated in culture by exposure to bacterial lipopolysaccharide, muramyl dipeptide, or phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) (as well as other biologically active phorbol compounds). Mo3e is also expressed by the monoblastic cell line U-937 after culture in medium containing PMA and other pharmacological activators of protein kinase C (4 beta-phorbol-12,13-dibutyrate, 4 beta-phorbol-12,13-didecanoate, mezerein, and cell-permeable 1,2-diacylglycerol). The human promyelocytic cell line HL-60 becomes Mo3e positive after exposure in vitro to certain inducers of monocytic differentiation (PMA, dibutyryl cyclic AMP, and cholera toxin plus 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine). The surface expression of Mo3e is blocked by inhibitors of protein synthesis, N-linked glycosylation, and protein kinase activation, as well as by ethylene glycol bis(beta-aminoethyl ether)-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid and calcium antagonists. These data suggest the involvement of glycoprotein synthesis, protein kinase activation, and calcium ions in the stimulated expression of Mo3e by activated human mononuclear phagocytes. Anti-Mo3e antibody blocks the human monocyte response to migration inhibitory factor (MIF), which indicates an association between the expression of Mo3e antigen and responsiveness to MIF.

Isolated triads from rabbit skeletal muscle were shown to contain an intrinsic protein kinase which was neither Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent nor cAMP-dependent. The protein substrates phosphorylated by this protein kinase exhibited apparent molecular weights of 300,000, 170,000, 90,000, 80,000, 65,000, 56,000, 52,000, 51,000, 40,000, 25,000, 22,000, and 15,000. Purification of the 1,4-dihydropyridine receptor from phosphorylated triads has demonstrated that the 170,000- and 52,000-Da subunits of the 1,4-dihydropyridine receptor are phosphorylated by this intrinsic protein kinase in isolated triads. Monoclonal antibodies to the 170,000-Da subunit of the dihydropyridine receptor immunoprecipitated the 170,000-Da phosphoprotein from detergent extracts of phosphorylated triads. The mobility of the 170,000-Da phosphoprotein in sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels was not changed with or without reduction, demonstrating that the 170,000-Da phosphoprotein is not the glycoprotein subunit of the receptor. Our results demonstrate that the 170,000- and 52,000-Da subunits of the dihydropyridine receptor are phosphorylated by an intrinsic protein kinase in isolated triads. In addition, our results also demonstrate that the 175,000-Da glycoprotein subunit of the dihydropyridine receptor is not phosphorylated in isolated triads by the intrinsic protein kinase, cAMP-dependent protein kinase, or endogenous Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase.

Purified dihydropyridine-sensitive calcium channels from rabbit transverse-tubule membranes consist of three noncovalently associated classes of subunits: alpha (167 kDa), beta (54 kDa), and gamma (30 kDa). Cleavage of disulfide bonds reveals two distinct alpha polypeptides and an additional component, delta. The alpha 1 subunit, a 175-kDa polypeptide that is not N-glycosylated, contains the dihydropyridine binding site, cAMP-dependent protein kinase phosphorylation site(s), and substantial hydrophobic domain(s). alpha 2, a 143-kDa glycoprotein, has none of the properties characteristic of alpha 1 but binds lectins and contains about 25% N-linked carbohydrate. alpha 2 is disulfide-linked to delta, a 24- to 27-kDa glycopeptide. beta (54 kDa) contains a cAMP-dependent phosphorylation site but is not N-glycosylated and does not have a hydrophobic domain. gamma (30 kDa) has a carbohydrate content of about 30% and extensive hydrophobic domain(s). Precipitation with affinity-purified anti-alpha 1 antibodies or alpha 2-specific lentil lectin-agarose demonstrated that alpha 1 alpha 2 beta gamma delta behaves as a complex in the presence of digitonin or 3-[(3-cholamidopropyl)dimethylammonio]-1-propanesulfonate, whereas the alpha 2 delta complex dissociates from alpha 1 beta gamma in the presence of Triton X-100. A model for subunit interaction and membrane insertion is proposed on the basis of these observations.

The combination of phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) and ionomycin produces a dramatic increase in the incorporation of [2-3H]mannose into Glc3Man9GlcNAc2-P-P-dolichol and glycoprotein, and the induction of RNA and DNA synthesis in murine splenic B lymphocytes (B cells). The kinetics of the induction processes and the concentrations of PMA and ionomycin required for the optimal response have been defined. While the levels of induction of RNA and DNA synthesis by PMA + ionomycin were similar to the mitogenic response to bacterial lipopolysaccharide, activation by PMA and the calcium ionophore resulted in a threefold higher stimulation in dolichol-linked oligosaccharide biosynthesis and protein N-glycosylation. These results indicate that all signalling mechanisms that trigger RNA and DNA synthesis may not be sufficient to produce maximal induction of the N-glycosylation apparatus. 1-(5-Isoquinolinesulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H-7), a potent protein kinase C inhibitor, prevented the induction of protein N-glycosylation activity (IC50 = 11 microM), as well as RNA (IC50 = 18 microM) and DNA synthesis (IC50 = 12 microM), two common indices of B cell activation. N-[2-(Methylamino)ethyl]-5-isoquinolinesulfonamide (H-8) also inhibited the induction of oligosaccharide-lipid intermediate, glycoprotein, RNA, and DNA synthesis, but required higher concentrations than H-7 for 50% inhibition. N-(2-Guanidinoethyl)-5-isoquinolinesulfonamide (HA1004), a potent inhibitor of cyclic nucleotide-dependent protein kinases, had little effect on the activation of the B cell metabolic processes. The H-7-sensitive reactions involved in the induction of RNA and DNA synthesis occurred within 4 h, but induction of lipid intermediate and glycoprotein biosynthesis remained sensitive to H-7 for 10 h after exposure to PMA and ionomycin. Direct in vitro assays in the presence of 0.6% Brij 58 reveal that a cytosolic, phospholipid-dependent protein kinase activity is translocated to a membrane site(s) after treatment with PMA and ionomycin, and the translocated protein kinase is sensitive to H-7. The relative order of potency of the protein kinase inhibitors on the metabolic processes strongly supports the hypothesis that protein kinase C, acting synergistically with Ca2+ mobilization, plays a key regulatory role in the early stages of B cell activation. The synthesis of oligosaccharide-lipid intermediates and protein N-glycosylation are also shown to be induced in B cells activated by PMA + ionomycin.

Platelet responses are inhibited by agents such as prostaglandin E1 that increase the cytoplasmic concentration of cyclic AMP. Inhibition is thought to result from phosphorylation of specific proteins. One protein that becomes phosphorylated is glycoprotein (GP) Ib beta, a component of the GP Ib.IX complex. We have suggested that phosphorylation of GP Ib beta inhibits the collagen-induced polymerization of actin. The aim of the present study was to identify the amino acid(s) in GP Ib beta that is phosphorylated. Purified GP Ib.IX complex was phosphorylated by the catalytic subunit of purified bovine cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase in the presence of [gamma-32P]ATP. Phosphoamino acid analysis showed that in GP Ib beta, [32P]phosphate was incorporated only into serine and was in a single tryptic peptide. Amino acid sequencing showed that this peptide was from the cytoplasmic domain of GP Ib beta and encompassed residues 161-175. A single serine residue, serine 166, contained the radiolabel. To determine whether the same residue was phosphorylated in intact platelets, GP Ib beta was isolated from 32P-labeled platelets before or after their exposure to prostaglandin E1. In both cases, radiolabel was present in phosphoserine and was in a single tryptic peptide. This peptide was the same as that which was phosphorylated in the purified GP Ib.IX complex, as shown by its identical mobility on two-dimensional tryptic maps, the presence of a positively charged residue in the fourth position, and the presence of the radiolabel in the sixth position of the peptide. This study shows that when cyclic AMP concentrations rise in platelets, the cytoplasmic domain of GP Ib beta is phosphorylated on serine 166, probably by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. We suggest that phosphorylation of this residue may contribute to the inhibitory actions of cyclic AMP by inhibiting collagen-induced polymerization of actin.

A glycogen synthase, designated GS II, which occurs in a protein/carbohydrate complex has been purified from Ascaris suum muscle. The purified GS-II complex which is eluted from concanavalin-A--Sepharose contains proteins with Mr 140,000 and 66,000 and a glycoprotein with a carbohydrate/protein mass ratio of 3:1. GS II activity was totally dependent on glucose 6-phosphate, but exogenous glycogen was not required for polysaccharide synthesis. The GS-II complex was not phosphorylated by cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase, and antibodies to the protein and carbohydrate components of GS II did not cross react with the purified cyclic-AMP-regulated glycogen synthase (GS I) from A. suum muscle. Polysaccharide which was synthesized de novo by the complex was added to the large-molecular-mass glycoprotein in GS II. The glycogen-like character of the newly synthesized polysaccharide was confirmed by the observation that glycogen phosphorylase utilized the polymer as substrate in both the synthesis and degradation reactions. A model is discussed in which a core glycoprotein serves as the substrate for a glycogen synthase which is distinctly different from GS I.

Varicella-zoster virus (VZV) glycoprotein gpI is the predominant viral glycoprotein within the plasma membranes of infected cells. This viral glycoprotein is phosphorylated on its polypeptide backbone during biosynthesis. In this report, we investigated the protein kinases which participate in the phosphorylation events. Under in vivo conditions, VZV gpI was phosphorylated on its serine and threonine residues by protein kinases present within lysates of either VZV-infected or uninfected cells. Because this activity was diminished by heparin, a known inhibitor of casein kinase II, isolated gpI was incubated with purified casein kinase II and shown to be phosphorylated in an in vitro assay containing [gamma-32P]ATP. The same glycoprotein was phosphorylated when [32P]GTP was substituted for [32P]ATP in the protein kinase assay. We also tested whether VZV gpI was phosphorylated by two other ubiquitous mammalian protein kinases--casein kinase I and cyclic AMP-dependent kinase--and found that only casein kinase I modified gpI. When the predicted 623-amino-acid sequence of gpI was examined, two phosphorylation sites known to be optimal for casein kinase II were observed. Immediately upstream from each of the casein kinase II sites was a potential casein kinase I phosphorylation site. In summary, this study showed that VZV gpI was phosphorylated by each of two mammalian protein kinases (casein kinase I and casein kinase II) and that potential serine-threonine phosphorylation sites for each of these two kinases were present in the viral glycoprotein.
