Purified plasma membranes from the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae bind about 1.2 pmol of cAMP/mg of protein with high affinity (Kd = 6 nM). By using photoaffinity labeling with 8-N3-[32P]cAMP, we have identified in plasma membrane vesicles a cAMP-binding protein (Mr = 54,000) that is present also in bcy1 disruption mutants, lacking the cytoplasmic R subunit of protein kinase A (PKA). This argues that it is genetically unrelated to PKA. Neither high salt, nor alkaline carbonate, nor cAMP extract the protein from the membrane, suggesting that it is not peripherally bound. The observation that (glycosyl)phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipases (or nitrous acid) release the amphiphilic protein from the membrane, thereby converting it to a hydrophilic form, indicates anchorage by a glycolipidic membrane anchor. Treatment with N-glycanase reduces the Mr to 44,000-46,000 indicative of a modification by N-linked carbohydrate side chain(s). In addition to the action of a phospholipase, the efficient release from the membrane requires the removal of the carbohydrate side chain(s) or the presence of high salt or methyl alpha-mannopyranoside, suggesting complex interactions with the membrane involving not only the glycolipidic anchor but also the glycan side chain(s). Topological studies show that the protein is exposed to the periplasmic space, raising intriguing questions for the function of this protein.

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.

An inhibitor of protein kinases, staurosporine (ssp), was found to affect the endocytic pathway of asialoglycoproteins subsequent to endocytosis in monolayer cultures of rat hepatocytes. The effect of 5 or 10 microM staurosporine on the internalization of a synthetic ligand (galBSA-HRP: bovine serum albumin exposing galactose, horseradish peroxidase conjugates) prebound to the cell surface was minimal. The presence of 5, 7, or 10 microM ssp during a 1-h chase period resulted in the ligand remaining in a low density (1.04-1.05 g/ml), nonlysosomal subcellular fraction in a Percoll gradient. The ligand, arrested by 7 microM ssp, was further processed to the lysosome during subsequent incubation in the absence of ssp. Cells maintained the ability to internalize ligand at 37 degrees C for 1 h in the presence of these concentrations of ssp. During a 1-h continuous uptake of 0-50 micrograms/ml nonlabeled ligand, the presence of 7 microM ssp did not cause any decrease in the amount of asialoglycoprotein receptor at the cell surface, which indicates receptor recycling occurred normally. These results suggest a possible involvement of protein kinase(s), which can be inhibited by ssp, in the delivery of endocytosed ligand to the lysosome, but not in ligand endocytosis and receptor recycling.

In the present study we have examined the ability of 8-bromoadenosine cyclic 3',5'-phosphate (8-bromo-cAMP; the membrane permeant analog of cAMP which can activate protein kinase A) to mimic hormone action and stimulate glucose transport and glucose transporter (GLUT-1) gene expression as well as the expression of several growth-related protooncogenes in quiescent 3T3-L1 fibroblasts. 8-Bromo-cAMP induced a rapid and prolonged increase in the rate of hexose transport. Early activation of hexose transport (within 30 min) was associated with increased plasma membrane immunoreactive glucose transporters, which corresponded to a doubling in the number of D-glucose-displaceable, plasma membrane cytochalasin B binding sites. The time course for 8-bromo-cAMP-induced hexose transport preceded the accumulation of GLUT-1 mRNA, which peaked between 4 and 8 h after exposure to the agent, and subsequently declined to approach basal (control) levels. Expression of the immediate-early genes c-fos and jun-B was induced by 8-bromo-cAMP on a rapid, but sustained time course, whereas induction of c-jun expression was delayed. Alterations in specific mRNAs following exposure to 8-bromo-cAMP were due to increased gene transcription (as judged by nuclear transcription run-on assays), although with respect to GLUT-1, an increase in mRNA stability was also observed. Treatment of the cells with forskolin resulted in the induction of GLUT-1 expression as well as expression of the immediate early genes. Exposure of quiescent 3T3-L1 fibroblasts to 8-bromo-cAMP resulted in a substantial increase in rates of total protein and RNA synthesis, but had little effect on DNA synthesis. The results demonstrate that 8-bromo-cAMP initiated a G0/G1 transition, but did not permit progression into S-phase. The results further suggest that increased cytosolic cAMP results in the stimulation of glucose transport by three distinct mechanisms to include translocation of pre-existing transporters, increased transcription of the GLUT-1 gene and increased stability of GLUT-1 mRNA.

Octyl glucoside-extracted rabbit renal brush-border membrane (BBM) proteins were sequentially fractionated using anion exchange chromatography, and the fractions were tested for Na(+)-H+ exchange activity, amiloride sensitivity, and the effect of adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP)-dependent protein kinase (PKA) after reconstitution into artificial lipid vesicles. Compared with the initial protein extract, an anionic protein fraction eluting with 0.2-0.4 M NaCl (fraction B) demonstrated increased Na(+)-H+ exchange activity. Fraction B also demonstrated sensitivity to inhibition by amiloride but was not regulated by PKA. Co-reconstitution of fraction B with a BBM protein fraction highly enriched in a 42-kDa polypeptide restored the inhibitory response to PKA. These experiments suggest that, as assayed in a solubilized and reconstituted system, the Na(+)-H+ exchanger contains a dissociable PKA regulatory component, possibly a polypeptide of 42 kDa.

Previous in vitro studies with detergent-solubilized rabbit renal brush-border membrane (BBM) proteins have suggested that adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP)-dependent protein kinase A (PKA)-mediated inhibition of the Na(+)-H+ exchanger requires the presence of 42-kDa cofactor that is distinct from the exchanger itself. We sought to determine whether there was a protein in native rabbit renal BBM vesicles that has characteristics similar to that of the 42-kDa cofactor. Incubation of native BBM vesicle proteins with a hypotonic phosphorylation solution containing purified catalytic subunit of PKA resulted in phosphorylation of a number of BBM proteins, including a protein with an apparent molecular weight that was similar but not identical to that of the 42-kDa cofactor obtained from anion-exchange column chromatography of n-octyl glucoside-extracted BBM proteins. The identity between the BBM vesicle protein and the 42-kDa cofactor was established by phosphopeptide maps and radioiodinated peptide maps. These results indicate that native BBM vesicles contain a number of proteins that are phosphorylated by PKA when the PKA and ATP are present inside the vesicle space. One of these proteins appears to be identical to the 42-kDa protein that, as previously suggested by in vitro studies, acts as a regulatory cofactor mediating the inhibitory effect of PKA on the renal Na(+)-H+ exchanger.

High-voltage discharge or one cycle of freeze-thawing are shown to transiently permeabilize rabbit ileal brush-border membrane vesicles to macromolecules. Uptake of the radiolabeled macromolecule dextran, mol wt 70,000, used as a marker for vesicle permeability, was determined by a rapid filtration technique, with uptake defined as substrate associated with the vesicle and releasable after incubation of vesicles with 0.1% saponin. Dextran added immediately after electric shock (2,000 V) or at the beginning of one cycle of freeze-thawing was taken up approximately eightfold compared with control; with both techniques, the concentration of dextran after being taken up into the vesicles was similar to that in the incubation medium, suggesting attainment of equilibrium. ATP also was taken up into freeze-thawed vesicles, whereas there was no significant uptake into control vesicles. The increase in vesicle permeability was reversible, based on Na-dependent D-glucose uptake being decreased when studied 5 but not 15 min after electric shock, and was not significantly decreased after completion of one cycle of freeze-thawing. In addition, adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate and Ca2+-calmodulin-dependent protein kinase activity were similar in control vesicles and vesicles exposed to high-voltage discharge or freeze-thawing. Also, vesicles freeze-thawed with [32P]ATP demonstrated increased phosphorylation compared with nonfrozen vesicles, while freeze-thawing did not alter vesicle protein as judged by Coomassie blue staining. These techniques should allow intestinal membrane vesicles to be used for studies of intracellular control of transport processes, for instance, studies of protein kinase regulation of transport.

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.

The structure of phospholamban, a 30-kDa oligomeric protein integral to cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum, was probed using ultraviolet absorbance and circular dichroism spectroscopy. Purified phospholamban was examined in three detergents: octyl glucoside, n-dodecyloctaethylene glycol monoether (C12E8) and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). Ultraviolet absorption spectra of phospholamban reflected its aromatic amino acid content: absorption peaks at 275-277 nm and 253, 259, 265 and 268 nm were attributed to phospholamban's one tyrosine and two phenylalanines, respectively. Phospholamban phosphorylated at serine 16 by the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase exhibited no absorbance changes when examined in C12E8 or SDS. Circular dichroism spectroscopy at 250-190 nm demonstrated that phospholamban possesses a very high content of alpha-helix in all three detergents and is unusually resistant to denaturation. Dissociation of phospholamban subunits by boiling in SDS increased the helical content, suggesting that the highly ordered structure is not dependent upon oligomeric interactions. The purified COOH-terminal tryptic fragment of phospholamban, containing residues 26-52 and comprising the hydrophobic, putative membrane-spanning domain, also exhibited a circular dichroism spectrum characteristic of alpha-helix. Circular dichroism spectra of phosphorylated and dephosphorylated phospholamban were very similar, indicating that phosphorylation does not alter phospholamban secondary structure significantly. The results are consistent with a two-domain model of phospholamban in which each domain contains a helix and phosphorylation may act to rotate one domain relative to the other.

The derepressed high-affinity glucose transport system and the induced galactose transport system are catabolite inactivated when cells with these transport systems are incubated with glucose. The role of the cyclic AMP cascade in the catabolite inactivation of these transport systems was shown by using mutants affected in the activity of cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase (cAPK). In tpk1(w) mutants with reduced cAPK activity, the sugar transport systems were expressed but were not catabolite inactivated. In bcy1 mutants with unbridled cAPK activity resulting from a defective regulatory subunit, the transport systems were absent or present at low levels.
