The major substrate for Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase III in mammalian cells is a species of Mr 100,000 that has a primarily cytoplasmic localization. This substrate has now been identified as elongation factor-2 (EF-2), a protein that catalyzes the translocation of peptidyl-tRNA on the ribosome. The amino acid sequence of 18 residues from the N-terminal of the Mr 100,000 CaM-dependent protein kinase III substrate purified from rat pancreas was found to be identical to the N-terminal sequence of authentic rat EF-2 as previously deduced from nucleic acid sequencing of a cDNA (Kohno, K., Uchida, T., Ohkubo, H., Nakanishi, S., Nakanishi, T., Fukui, T., Ohtsuka, E., Ikehara, M., and Okada, Y. (1986) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 83, 4978-4982). CaM-dependent protein kinase III phosphorylated EF-2 in vitro with a stoichiometry of approximately 1 mol/mol on a threonine residue. Amino acid sequencing of the purified tryptic phosphopeptide revealed that this threonine residue lies within the sequence: Ala-Gly-Glu-Thr-Arg-Phe-Thr-Asp-Thr-Arg (residues 51-60 of EF-2). The Mr 100,000 protein was stoichiometrically ADP-ribosylated in vitro by the addition of diphtheria toxin and NAD. The Mr 100,000 protein was photoaffinity labeled with a GTP analog and the protein had an endogenous GTPase activity that could be stimulated by the addition of salt-washed ribosomes. These properties are all characteristic of EF-2. Dephospho-EF-2 could support poly(U)-directed polyphenylalanine synthesis in a reconstituted elongation system when combined with EF-1. In the same system, phospho-EF-2 was virtually inactive in supporting polypeptide synthesis; this effect could be reversed by dephosphorylation of phospho-EF-2. These results suggest that intracellular Ca2+ inhibits protein synthesis in mammalian cells via CaM-dependent protein kinase III-catalyzed phosphorylation of EF-2.

The pyruvate dehydrogenase complex has been demonstrated in high speed pellet preparations from sonicated ribbed mussel gill mitochondria. The activity of the complex is inhibited by low chloride (less than 100 mM) concentrations, EDTA (1 mM), succinate, ATP, and NAD/NADH ratios below 4. Inhibition by EDTA is relieved by addition of 10 mM MgCl2-1 mM CaCl2. ATP inhibition was enhanced by NaF and reversed by high Mg++ concentrations in the absence of NaF. Pyruvate and thiamine pyrophosphate inhibited the inactivation by ATP. The nonhydrolyzable ATP analog AMP-PNP caused inhibition of the overall catalytic activity that was identical to ATP. Factors involved in the ATP inhibition and Mg++ reversal are lost with freezing or cold storage. Preliminary results using gamma-32P-ATP indicate that a protein kinase that phosphorylates the alpha subunit of E1 (pyruvate dehydrogenase) from the mammalian PDC is associated with the gill PDC. The activity of the complex may be regulated by a phosphorylation/dephosphorylation mechanism and by the relative levels of substrates, products, and other metabolites in the mitochondria.

Daudi cells, a human lymphoblastoid line, are exceptionally sensitive to the growth inhibitory effects of interferon, 1 unit/ml being sufficient to inhibit cell growth. In addition, interferon treatment of these cells severely inhibits the incorporation of exogenous thymidine into DNA and causes cells to accumulate in the G1(G0) at the expense of the S phase of the cell cycle. The possible involvement of ppp(A2'p)nA(n = 2 to less than or equal to 4) in these effects has been investigated. No (less than 1 nM) ppp(A2'p)nA or (A2'p)nA or alternative products of the ppp(A2'p)nA synthetase [e.g. NAD (2'pA)2] were detected in interferon-treated cells. In addition no evidence was obtained for the occurrence of ppp(A2'p)nA-mediated ribosomal RNA cleavage in these cells even after several days of treatment with relatively high doses of interferon. A line of Daudi cells which is resistant to all three of the above effects of interferon was selected. The wild type and resistant lines were compared with respect to the ppp(A2'p)nA and interferon and double-stranded RNA (dsRNA)-mediated protein kinase systems. The resistant line was not receptor-negative as it responded to interferon by the production of elevated levels of the ppp(A2'p)nA synthetase similar to those observed in extracts from wild-type cells. There was no detectable difference between the lines in the levels of the (2'-5')phosphodiesterase responsible for the degradation of ppp(A2'p)nA. There was, however, about a twofold increase in the ppp(A2'p)nA-dependent endoribonuclease activity in response to interferon with extracts from the wild-type but not the resistant cells. In addition, although the dsRNA-dependent protein kinase activity increased in both types of cell there was a striking reduction in the level of protein phosphorylation in general in response to interferon with material from the wild-type but not the resistant cells.

Phosphorylation of whole histones from calf thymus by the catalytic subunit of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase was markedly reduced when the histones were ADP-ribosylated. NAD, nicotinamide or free ADP-ribose molecule did not suppress the phosphorylation. Urea gel electrophoretic analyses of the phosphorylated histones which had already been ADP-ribosylated revealed that the suppression of phosphorylation occurred in both H1 and core histones. Therefore, the possibility that ADP-ribosylation may regulate the phosphorylation of histones phosphorylation in nuclei warrants further investigation.

The active NAD-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase of wild type yeast cells fractionated by DEAE-Sephacel chromatography was inactivated in vitro by the addition of either the cAMP-dependent or cAMP-independent protein kinases obtained from wild type cells. cAMP-dependent inhibition of glutamate dehydrogenase activity was not observed in the crude extract of bcy1 mutant cells which were deficient in the regulatory subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase. The cAMP-dependent protein kinase of CYR3 mutant cells, which has a high K alpha value for cAMP in the phosphorylation reaction, required a high cAMP concentration for the inactivation of NAD-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase. An increased inactivation of partially purified active NAD-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase (Mr = 450,000) was observed to correlate with increased phosphorylation of a protein subunit (Mr = 100,000) of glutamate dehydrogenase. The phosphorylated protein was labeled by an NADH analog, 5'-p-fluorosulfonyl[14C]benzoyladenosine. Activation and dephosphorylation of inactive NAD-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase fractions were observed in vitro by treatment with bovine alkaline phosphatase or crude yeast cell extracts. These results suggested that the conversion of the active form of NAD-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase to an inactive form is regulated by phosphorylation through cAMP-dependent and cAMP-independent protein kinases.

The phosphorylation of nuclear proteins from hen liver nuclei was suppressed under conditions of incubation with NAD. The reconstituted protein kinase assay system containing heat-treated and subsequently ADP-ribosylated nuclei and NI type protein kinase revealed that the ADP-ribosylated nuclear proteins are poor acceptors for the phosphorylation reaction. Therefore, mono(ADP-ribosyl)ation may contribute to the regulation of phosphorylation reaction in nuclei.

Cl- conductance of the apical membrane of airway epithelial cells has properties of a passive diffusion mechanism but is decreased by inhibition of oxidative metabolism. Recent reports that cAMP-dependent Cl- conductance also requires ATP at the intracellular domains of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) suggests that ATP concentration could mediate metabolic regulation of Cl- conductance. However, metabolic inhibitors affect processes other than ATP free energy levels, including notably the metabolic pathways that set the redox potential of pyridine nucleotides within the cell. We have investigated the possibility that CFTR-mediated Cl- conductance is affected by the ratio of oxidized to reduced intracellular pyridine nucleotides. CFTR was expressed in airway and heterologous cells and studied under whole cell voltage clamp conditions, which permitted the intracellular NAD(P)+/NAD(P)H ratio to be varied independently of ATP concentration. In three cell types expressing CFTR, whole cell dialysis with reduced pyridine nucleotides inhibited activation of Cl- currents by forskolin and 8-(4-chlorophenylthio)-cAMP (CPT-cAMP), whereas dialysis with oxidized pyridines increased both basal and stimulated CFTR-mediated Cl- conductance. In cell-attached membrane patches, the open probability of 5-6-picosiemens Cl- channels that had been activated by forskolin and CPT-cAMP was further and reversibly increased by permeant oxidants. Neither swelling-induced whole cell K+ currents in CFTR-expressing cells nor swelling-induced whole cell Cl- currents in multidrug resistance protein-expressing cells were affected by NADPH. Pyridine nucleotide redox potential had little effect on phosphorylation of histone by protein kinase A. We conclude that CFTR Cl- conductance function can be modulated by pyridine nucleotide redox potential. This effect points to the existence of a mechanism or mechanisms by which cytosolic nucleotides other than ATP can affect plasma membrane Cl- conductance and may help explain how a passive ion conductance is linked to cellular energy metabolism.

Cyclic AMP affinity chromatography applied to various mammalian tissue extracts yielded two proteins in addition to the regulatory subunits of protein kinase. This paper characterizes these proteins and provides a simple procedure for their preparation. The polypeptides (36 kDa and a 19 kDa/21 kDa doublet) were isolated from the cAMP matrix by sequential elution with cAMP solutions of increasing concentrations. Microsequencing was accomplished following chemical or enzymic degradation of isolated polypeptides. Partial amino acid sequences of the 36 kDa protein and analyses of its enzymic activity indicated identity with glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase whilst the lower MW protein proved to be identical with mammalian nucleoside diphosphate kinase subunits. In both cases, binding to cAMP appeared to occur at the nucleotide (NAD and ATP, respectively) sites. In conclusion, we present a one step-procedure, applicable to tissue and cell extracts, which allows the simultaneous isolation of both glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and nucleoside diphosphate kinase. This procedure may help to elucidate the multiple functions of these two important enzymes.

We examined the regulation of the renal cortical basolateral Na-HCO3 cotransporter by G proteins. Na-HCO3 cotransporter activity was measured in highly purified rabbit renal cortical basolateral membranes (BLMV) as the difference in 22Na uptake in presence of HCO3- and gluconate. HCO(3-)-dependent 22Na uptake was significantly inhibited by 10 microM guanosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (GTP gamma S), a G protein activator. In contrast, addition of 50 microM guanosine 5'-O-(2-thiodiphosphate) (GDP beta S), an inhibitor of G protein, prevented the inhibition of the Na-HCO3 cotransporter activity by GTP gamma S. AlF4-, another G protein activator, also inhibited the activity of the Na-HCO3 cotransporter. This inhibitory effect of G protein on the Na-HCO3 cotransporter activity was not prevented by dideoxyadenosine, an adenylate cyclase inhibitor, or by the protein kinase A inhibitor, suggesting a direct effect of G protein on the cotransporter. To identify the G proteins that mediate the regulation of the Na-HCO3 cotransporter, purified BLMV were ADP ribosylated in presence of cholera toxin or pertussis toxin. Autoradiograms of BLMV incubated with [32P]NAD showed that cholera and pertussis toxins caused ADP ribosylation of 42- and 41-kDa G proteins, respectively. To determine whether the ADP ribosylation by cholera or pertussis toxin was associated with alterations of the Na-HCO3 cotransporter activity, we measured HCO(3-)-dependent 22Na uptake in BLMV treated with 20 micrograms/ml cholera toxin or with 100 ng/ml pertussis toxin. Na-HCO3 cotransporter activity was significantly decreased by both cholera and pertussis toxins.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Work from several laboratories indicates that guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (GTP-binding proteins) are required for intracellular vesicular transport. In a previous report we presented evidence indicating that one or more heterotrimeric G proteins regulate fusion between endosomes (Colombo, M. I., Mayorga, L. S., Casey, P. J., and Stahl, P. D. (1992) Science 255, 1695-1697). We now report on experiments showing that Gs plays a role in endosome fusion. We have used several reagents known to modulate Gs function including (i) peptides corresponding to the cytoplasmic domains of G protein-coupled receptors and peptides that mimic interaction of receptors with G proteins, (ii) anti-G protein antibodies, and (iii) cholera toxin. Synthetic peptides corresponding to the third cytoplasmic loop of the beta 2-adrenergic receptor which putatively interact with G alpha s inhibited endosomal fusion. The inhibitory effect of these peptides was prevented by a short preincubation of endosomes with guanosine-5'-3-O-(thio)triphosphate or by phosphorylating the peptide with cAMP-dependent protein kinase. The involvement of Gs in endosome recognition and/or the fusion process was assessed by testing an antibody against the COOH terminus of G alpha s. Anti-G alpha s IgG completely abolished fusion between endosomes. Lastly, preincubation of endosomal vesicles with cholera toxin abrogated fusion in the presence of NAD, whereas no effect was observed in the absence of the cofactor. Taken together these findings indicate a role for Gs in either the mechanism or the regulation of fusion among endosomes. These results raise the possibility that signal transduction through cytoplasmic domains of receptors may participate in the regulation of endocytic trafficking.
