Effects of cyclic adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP)-dependent protein kinase were studied in sarcoplasmic reticulum prepared from cardiac and slow and fast (white) skeletal muscle. Cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase failed to catalyze phosphorylation of fast skeletal muscle microsomes as determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase was without effect on calcium uptake by these microsomes. Treatment of cardiac microsomes obtained from dog, cat, rabbit, and guinea pig with cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase and ATP resulted in phosphorylation of a 22,000-dalton protein component in the amounts of 0.75, 0.25, 0.30, and 0.14 nmol of phosphorus/mg of microsomal protein, respectively. Calcium uptake by cardiac microsomes was stimulated 1.8- to 2.5-fold when microsomes were treated with cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. Protein kinases partially purified from bovine heart and rabbit skeletal muscle were both effective in mediating these effects on phosphorylation and calcium transport in dog cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum. Slow skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum also contains a protein with a molecular weight of approximately 22,000 that can be phosphorylated by protein kinase. Phosphorylation of this component ranged from 0.005 to 0.016 nmol of phosphorous/mg of microsomal protein in dog biceps femoris. A statistically significant increase in calcium uptake by these membranes was produced by the protein kinase. Increases in protein kinase-catalyzed phosphorylation of a low molecular weight microsomal component and in calcium transport by sarcoplasmic reticulum of cardiac and slow skeletal muscle may be related to the relaxation-promoting effects of epinephrine seen in these types of muscle. Conversely, the absence of a relaxation-promoting effect of epinephrine in fast skeletal muscle may be associated with the lack of effect of cyclic AMP and protein kinase on calcium transport by the sarcoplasmic reticulum of this type of muscle.

Testicular and cauda epididymal sperm were obtained via catheters previously implanted in the rete testis and proximal vas deferens of bulls and were used to examine the relationships among sperm motility, cyclic adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cAMP) level, adenine nucleotide levels, and rates of glucose and oxygen consumption. Testicular, cauda epididymal, and ejaculated sperm contain cAMP-stimulated protein kinase, adenylate cyclase, and nucleotide phosphodiesterase. Treatment of the nonmotile testicular sperm with phosphodiesterase inhibitors resulted in a doubling of cellular cAMP concentration and a 25% increase in their glucose consumption. No change in motility, ATP level, or rate of oxygen consumption was observed. Sperm in neat cauda epididymal semen had flagellating tails but no progressive motility. Dilution of these sperm into glucose-containing buffer resulted in an increase in intracellular cAMP concentration and a decrease in ATP level with concomitant increases in ADP and AMP levels. These biochemical changes occurred within 30 s after dilution and apparently preceded the initiation of progressive motility by most cells. Since sperm in neat cauda epididymal semen became progressively motile when diluted with neat cauda epididymal plasma as well as accessory sex gland fluid or buffer, composition of the fluid surrounding the sperm is not responsible for the initiation of progressive motility upon dilution nor does cauda epididymal plasma contain an inhibitory factor. Perhaps release from contact immobilization provides the stimulation for the initial acquisition of progressive motility by cauda epididymal sperm. We conclude that during epididymal passage sperm develop from a cell physically unresponsive to changes in cAMP concentration to a form which initiates progressive motility upon changes in cAMP concentration.

Several 8-substituted derivatives of cyclic AMP were tested for their effects on alpha-amylase release. None of the 8-substituted compounds were more active than N6,O2-dibutyryl- or N6-monobutyryl adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate in causing alpha-amylase release. The rat parotid was found to contain a high (105 muM) and a low (1.15 muM) Km cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase activity. All of the 8-substituted cyclic AMP compounds inhibited the hydrolysis of 1 muM cyclic AMP. However, there was only a partial correlation between the ability to cause alpha-amylase release and inhibit cyclic AMP hydrolysis. Extracts of parotid tissue contained a cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase activity. None of the compounds were as effective as cyclic AMP in activating the protein kinase. As in the case of inhibition of cyclic AMP hydrolysis, the ability of the 8-substituted cyclic AMP compounds to increase protein kinase activity did not correlate with their effects on alpha-amylase release. It is concluded that factors in addition to the in vitro inhibition of cyclic AMP hydrolysis and activation of protein kinase are important in determining the net result of the 8-substituted cyclic AMP compounds on parotid gland function. These additional factors might include differences in the rate of uptake and differences in rats of conversion to compounds with modified activity.

Chinese hamster ovary cells were synchronized by selective detachment of cells in mitosis. The adenosine 3':5'-cyclic monophosphate (cyclic AMP) intracellular concentrations and cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase activities were measured as these cells traversed G1 phase and entered S phase. Protein kinase activity, assayed in the presence or absence of saturating exogenous cyclic AMP in the reaction mixture, was lowest in early G1 phase (2 h after mitosis), increased 2-fold (plus exogenous cyclic AMP in reaction mixture) or 3.5-fold (minus cyclic AMP in reaction mixture) to maximum values in mid to late G1 phase (4-5 h after mitosis), and then decreased as cells entered S phase. Intracellular cyclic AMP concentrations were minimal 1 h after mitosis, increased 5-fold to maximum levels at 4-6 after mitosis, and decreased as cells entered S phase. Similar to the fluctuations in intracellular cyclic AMP, the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase activity ratio increased more than 40% in late G1 or early S phase. Puromycin (either 10 mug/ml or 50 mug/ml) administered 1 h after mitosis inhibited cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase activity up to 50% by 5 h after mitosis, while similar treatment (10 mug/ml) had no effect on the increase in cyclic AMP formation. These data demonstrate that: (1) total protein kinase activity changed during G1 phase and this increase was dependent on new protein synthesis; (2) the increased intracellular concentrations of cyclic AMP were not dependent on new protein synthesis; and (3) the activation of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase was temporally coordinated with increased intracellular concentration of cycli AMP as Chinese hamster ovary cells traversed G1 phase and entered S phase. These results suggest that cyclic AMP acts during G1 phase to regulate the activation of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase.

Isolated adipocytes, incubated in the presence of extracellular 32Pi to steady state 32P incorporation into cellular phosphopeptides, were exposed to hormones for 5 min. Epinephrine (10(-6) M) stimulated 32P incorporation into at least 12 major phosphopeptides, distributed in the cytoplasm, endoplasmic reticulum, and plasma membrane. Quantitatively pre-eminent among these were peptides of molecular weight 123,000 and 69,000, each located both in the cytoplasm and endoplasmic reticulum. The effect of epinephrine (10(-7) M) on 32P incorporation into these two peptides was augmented by theophylline (10(-3) M) in a synergistic fashion. Norepinephrine, dibutyryl N6,O2'-dibutyryl adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate, adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) (synthetic 1 to 24 fragment), and glucagon mimicked the effect of epinephrine. Insulin modified adipocyte peptide phosphorylation in two ways. When present as the sole hormone, insulin (100 microunits/ml) consistently and selectively stimulated the 32P incorporation into a peptide of molecular weight 123,000 (endoplasmic reticulum, cytoplasm) without significant alteration in the 32P content of any other major peptide. A second effect of insulin was evident when epinephrine (10(-6) M) was present simultaneously. Insulin significantly inhibited the epinephrine-stimulated phosphorylation of the molecular weight 69,000 (endoplasmic reticulum, cytoplasm) and 26,000 (plasma membrane) peptides. Nevertheless, persistence of insulin-stimulated phosphorylation of the 123,000 peptide in the presence of epinephrine was shown by a 32P content of this peptide that was greater in the presence of both hormones than with either individually. These findings indicate that in intact adipocytes: (a) epinephrine acutely alters the phosphorylation of a large number of adipocyte peptides, partly at least, via activation of adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP)-dependent protein kinase; (b) insulin opposes several epinephrine-stimulated phosphorylations in a manner consitent with its ability to lower epinephrine-stimulated intracellular cyclic AMP accumulation in adipocytes; and (c) insulin, in addition, exerts a unique stimulatory effect on adipocyte peptide phosphorylation that is independent of its effects on cyclic AMP metabolism and may be medicated by the generation of an as yet undefined intracellular "messenger" unique to insulin.

Guanosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cyclic GMP)-dependent protein kinase was purified from the guinea pig fetal lung, a tissue shown to be the richest in this enzyme in all mammalian sources examined, and its general properties studied. The enzyme was purified 150-fold from crude extract by steps of pH 5.4 isoelectric precipitation, Sephadex G-200 filtration, hydroxylapatite treatment and DEAE-cellulose chromatography. The purified enzyme, free from contamination with adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP)-dependent protein kinase, had a specific activity at least equivalent to 600-fold purification of the enzyme from the adult lung. The pulmonary enzyme exhibited an absolute requirement of protein kinase modulator (prepared from various mammalian tissues with an exception of skeletal muscle) for its activity. Inhibitor protein of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase purified from rabbit skeletal muscle could not stimulate nor inhibit the cyclic GMP target enzyme, indicating the factors from mammalian sources regulating the two classes of protein kinases may not be the same. The enzyme had Ka values of 1.3 times 10(-8) and 3.3 times 10(-8) M for 8-bromo cyclic GMP and cyclic GMP, respectively, compared to 3.0 times 10(-6) M for cyclic AMP. Cyclic GMP lowered the Km of the enzyme for ATP from 6.3 times 10(-5) M in its absence to 2.1 times 10(-5) M in its presence, accompanied by an approximate doubling of the Vmax. The molecular weight of the enzyme (assayed by its catalytic and cyclic GMP-binding abilities) was estimated to be 123,000, corresponding to a sedimendation coefficient of 7.06 S, by means of sucrose density gradient ultracentrifugation. The cyclic GMP-dependent enzyme required Mg2+ and Co2+ for its activity with optimal concentrations of about 30 and 0.7 mM, respectively. The maximal activity seen in the presence of Mg2+, however, was nearly twice as high as that seen in the presence of Co2+. Histones were generally effective substrates for the enzyme, whereas protamine, casein, phosvitin, phosphorylase kinase, and activator protein of phosphodiesterase were not. The cyclic GMP-dependent enzyme exhibited a greater affinity for histones than did the cyclic AMP-dependent enzyme in the presence of Mg2+.

A manyfold increase in phosphorylation of cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) was seen when SR was incubated in the presence of a bovine cardiac cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase and cyclic AMP. This phosphoprotein had stability characteristics of a phosphoester in which the phosphate is incorporated largely into serine, and its formation did not required calcium ions, unlike the formation of acyl phosphoprotein intermediate of calcium-transport ATPase which is present within the same membrane. When examined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, the protein kinase-catalyzed phosphorylation occurred at a 22,000-dalton component of the cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum. This 22,000-dalton protein has been named "phospholamban" (lambda alpha mu beta alpha nu epsilon iota nu = to receive), based on its ability to receive phosphate from ATP. Phosphorylation of phospholamban by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase was associated with the stimulation of calcium transport by the cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum. This stimulation was accompanied by an increase in the calcium-activated ATPase activity, indicating that the overall rate of calcium transport rather than its efficiency is enhanced by protein kinase. The 22,000-dalton phopholamban was susceptible to trypsin. Brief digestion with trypsin in the presence of 1 M sucrose prevented subsequent phosphorylation of phospholamban, while leaving the calcium pump apparently intact. Incubation of trypsin-treated sarcoplasmic reticulum with cyclic AMP-depentent protein kinase did not result in the stimulation of calcium transport. These results may suggest that phospholamban is a modulator of the calcium pump of the cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum.

A cyclic AMP dependent protein kinase (EC 2.7.1.37) from sea urchin sperm as purified to near homogeneity and characterized. A 68-fold purification of the enzyme was obtained. This preparation had a specific activity of 389 000 units/mg protein with protamine as the substrate. On the basis of the purification required, it may be calculated that the protein kinase constitutes as much as 1.5% of the soluble protein in sperm. There appeared to be a single form of the enzyme in sea urchin sperm, based on the behavior of the enzyme during DEAE-cellulose and Sephadex G-200 column chromatography. Magnesium ion was required for enzyme activity. The rate of phosphorylation of protamine was stimulated 2.5-fold by an optimal concentration of 0.9 M NaCl. The Km for ATP (minus cyclic AMP) was 0.119 +/- 0.013 (S.D.) and 0.055 mM +/- 0.009 (S.D.) in the presence of cyclic AMP. The specificity of the enzyme toward protein acceptors, in decreasing order of phosphorylation, was found to be histone f1 protamine, histone f2b, histone f3 and histone f2a; casein and phosvitin were not phosphorylated. The holoenzyme was found to have an apparent molecular weight of 230 000 by Sephadex G-200 chromatography. In the presence of 5 - 10(-6) M cyclic AMP, the holoenzyme was dissociated on Sephadex G-200 to a regulatory subunit of molecular weight 165 000 and a catalytic subunit of Mr 73 000. The dissociation could also be demonstrated by disc gel electrophoresis in the presence and absence of cyclic AMP.

A nucleoside-dependent protein kinase (EC 2.7.1.37) was partially purified from Trypanosoma gambiense, the pathogenic agent of sleeping sickness. This enzyme catalyzes the phosphorylation of histone and protamine. Various nucleosides at the concentration of 10(-4) M stimulated the histone kinase activity about two-fold, whereas cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP were without effect. The pH-optimum for histone phosphorylation was at about pH 7.0. The enzyme activity absolutely depends on Mg2+, Mn2+ or Co2+. The apparent Km-value for histone was 0.3 mg/ml and those for ATP were 2 - 10(-4) M and 6 - 10(-5) M in the absence or presence of 10(-4) M adenosine respectively. IDP and ADP complete with ATP. The inhibition constants were calculated to be 2 - 10(-4) M and 2.5 - 10(-4) M, respectively. The molecular weight of the histone kinase was found to be 95 000 by gel filtration and 88 000 by sedimentation in a sucrose gradient.

The distribution of protein phosphokinase (EC 2.7.1.37) activities has been established in horse thyroid nuclei. The presence of several enzyme activities has been demonstrated, two of which are clearly distinct. The first one acts on histone as substrate and is activated by cyclic AMP. Physico-chemical properties of this nuclear cyclic AMP-dependent histone kinase and of the cytosol histone kinase are different, demonstrating the absence of a contamination from the cytosol. The second enzyme acts on casein as substrate and is not stimulated by cyclic AMP POR CYCLIC GMP. The findings are consistent with the observation of thyrotropin stimulation of histone phosphorylation in thyroid nuclei.
