The effects of histamine on heart cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity, cAMP levels, phosphorylase activity, and contractile force was investigated in the perfused guinea pig heart. To accurately determine the protein kinase activity ratio in guinea pig heart, it was necessary to measure kinase activity in whole homogenates immediately after homogenization of the tissue. Histamine produced a rapid dose-dependent increase in cAMP and the protein kinase activity ratio followed by increased in contractile force and phosphorylase activity. There was a good correlation between the degree of protein kinase activation and the increase in phosphorylase and force. The beta-adrenergic blocking agent propranolol did not reduce the effects of histamine, but metiamide, a potent H2-receptor antagonist, greatly attenuated all the effects of histamine. The data support the hypothesis that increases in heart cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity produce corresponding increases in contractile force and phosphorylase activity.

Liver glycogen synthase b phosphatase, chromatographically separable from phosphorylase a phosphatase, is decreased in 48-hour alloxan diabetic rats. The phosphatase activities are measured in an in vitro system using exogenous isolated phospho-enzyme as substrates with added phosphatases. Synthase and phosphorylase phosphatases were shown to have differential catalytic properties by their reactivity in the presence of Pi, the heat-stable inhibitor of phosphorylase phosphatase and after incubation with added cAMP-dependent protein kinase.

PGE1, like TSH, can increase cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity in calf thyroid slices. The intracellular levels of cAMP produced by either of these agents alone appeared to correlate well with the degree of kinase activation. PG synthesis did not appear to be necessary for TSH action in this system, since indomethacin, and inhibitor of prostaglandin synthesis, did not alter either cAMP levels or kinase activity in slices incubated with TSH. Both the cAMP level and kinase activity rose when a submaximally effective dose of TSH was added to a maximal dose of PGE1. However, neither the cAMP levels nor the kinase activity produced by a maximal dose of TSH was affected by the addition of PGE1.

Plasma membranes have been prepared from porcine thyroid glands using sucrose gradients. The fractions having a density in sucrose of 1.18 g/ml mainly contained plasma membranes and were moderately contaminated with other subcellular components as shown by marker enzyme data. Purified plasma membranes incubated in the presence of [32-P]gamma ATP incorporated 32-P. Kinetics of incorporation of 32-P into endogenous substrates studied in various buffers and with increasing ATP concentration suggest a phosphodephosphorylating system related to cAMP-dependent protein kinase and phosphoprotein phosphatase activities. The two enzymatic activities associated with plasma membranes have been demonstrated using exogenous substrates. cAMP increases and fluoride ions decrease the extent of membrane phosphorylation. The specific activity of protein kinase was 10-12 times higher than in the initial homogenate and was only slightly enhanced in the presence of 0.5% Nonidet as compared to microsomal fraction. cAMP binding to membrane proteins was 3 times higher than to the other particulate fractions. TSH present in the incubating medium or added after 5 min of 32-P labelling induced a rapid stimulation of endogenous phosphorylation followed by a rapid decrease. Phosphorylated membrane substrates were analyzed: high voltage paper electrophoresis after partial hydrolysis indicated that [32-P]phosphate is incorporated into serine and threonine residues as o-phosphate derivatives. SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed several 32--labelled fractions. When enhanced by cAMP, no specific phosphorylation of protein components was observed.

Preincubation of isolated epididymal fat cells with dexamethasone or treating rats with cortisol enhances the epinephrine-stimulated lipolysis of the cells as well as cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity in homogenates of these fat cell suspensions. During maximal inhibition of phosphodiesterase activity by theophylline or dibutyryl cAMP, this potentiating effect of glucocorticoids on the fat cells was also present. There was no lowering of the total phosphodiesterase activity in homogenates of fat cell suspensions of rats that were treated with cortisol, but there appeared to be a lower activity of the low KM phosphodiesterase activity. It is concluded that induction of protein kinase by glucocorticoid hormone is responsible for its special type of stimulative action on lipolysis.

Rat hearts were perfused with epinephrine and/or 1-methyl-3-isobutylxanthine for 2 min. These agents raised the concentration of cAMP and increased the fraction of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (EC 2.7.1.70) in the active form. However, the content of cAMP-dependent protein kinase in the soluble fraction of homogenates of these hearts was reduced and the amount in the particulate fraction was increased. A similar redistribution was obtained by adding cAMP to homogenates of control hearts. The reduction in soluble protein kinase content was due to apparent binding of the free catalytic subunit of the enzyme to particulate material (12,000 times g pellet) in media of low ionic strength (smaller than 100 mM KCl). The amount bound was, therefore, proportional to the dissociation of the holoenzyme. The binding was not altered by prior boiling or trypsin treatment of the particulate material, but it was prevented or reversed by the addition of 150 mM KCl. The catalytic subunit of the protein kinase from heart also bound to particulate fractions from liver or Escherichia coli and to various denatured proteins. These findings suggest that the protein kinase activity of membranes and particulate fractions has frequently been overestimated, since isolation of particulate materials has usually been carried out at low ionic strength. The data also imply that intracellular translocation of the protein kinase catalytic subunit, at least in heart tissue, is of questionable physiological significance.

There appear to be two classes of protein kinases in rat heart and adipose tissue, types I and II. Type I elutes from DEAE-cellulose at smaller than 0.1 M NaCl and type II at greater than 0.1 M NaCl. The type I enzyme is more readily dissociated by salt or histone than is the type II enzyme. If the type I kinase is first dissociated by cAMP, the subunits reassociate very slowly at 0 degrees C on removal of the cAMP by Sephadex G-25 chromatography, whereas those of type II reassociate very rapidly. Rat heart contains mostly type I and a small amount of type II enzyme, whereas adipose tissue contains almost exclusively the type II enzyme. The adipose tissue enzyme resembles the heart type II kinase in all of the above properties, although the two enzymes are not identical as indicated by slight differences in elution patterns from DEAE-cellulose columns. Incubation of rat epididymal adipose tissue with low concentrations of epinephrine (0.11 muM) increases glycerol production and the fraction of the protein kinase in the active form (activity ratio). The change in cAMP under these conditions is not statistically significant. The presence of insulin inhibits the epinephrine effect on glycerol production and protein kinase but has no measurable effect on cAMP levels. Incubation of adipose tissue with high epinephrine concentrations (11 muM) increases the cAMP level, the protein kinase activity ratio, and glycerol production. Under these conditions insulin decreases the cAMP level and kinase activity ratio but does not reduce glycerol production. The data suggest that very small changes in the tissue cAMP level, undetectable by the assay method, are magnified during the stepwise activation of glycerol output aided possibly by cooperative effects between cAMP and protein kinase. The procedure developed for determining the state of activation of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase in adipose tissue must be modified by reducing the salt concentration of the buffers in order to carry out similar studies in the heart. This reflects the different types of protein kinase in the two tissues. The addition of charcoal to crude extracts of heart prevents protein kinase activation by added cyclic AMP. Charcoal should therefore prevent any activation that could occur if any sequestered cAMP were released during homogenization. Charcoal addition thereby provides a means to distinguish intracellular cAMP activation of the kinase from that which might occur following cell rupture. If epinephrine-perfused hearts are homogenized in the presence of charcoal, epinephrine stimulation of the protein kinase is only slightly decreased. This indicates that the protein kinase is activated intracellularly by cAMP and suggests that all of the cAMP in the cell is available to the protein kinase; i.e., cAMP is not released during homogenization.

The present experiments were designed to study whether exogenous hCG could elicit acute changes in the ovarian concentration of soluble cAMP-dependent protein kinases temporally related to binding of hCG and intracellular accumulation of cAMP. Cyclic AMP dependent protein kinase activity decreased five-fold within 5 to 30 min after intravenous administration of highly purified hCG to pseudopregnant rats. Moreover cAMP dependent protein kinase activity was totally suppressed with 0.5 IU hCG, whereas tissue concentration of cAMP continued to increase throughout the dose range (0.05-5.0 IU) of hCG used in the present studies. A marked fall in cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity had occurred before there was a significant change in intracellular accumulation of cAMP, possibly reflecting intracellular compartmentalization of cAMP. Inhibitors of protein did not affect the hCG-induced changes in tissue concentrations of cAMP and soluble cAMP dependent protein kinase activity but did suppress the recovery of cAMP dependent protein kinase activity to pretreatment levels. Cyclic AMP dependent protein kinases appear to play a significant role in mediating hormonal action in vivo. In addition the present studies suggest that, protein kinases may protect the cell from excessive hormonal stimulation.

In crude extracts of adipose tissue the protein kinase dissociates slowly at 30 degrees into regulatory and catalytic subunits in the presence of 700 mug per ml of histone or 0.5 M NaCl. If the kinase is first dissociated by adding 10 muM adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cAMP), reassociation occurs instantaneously after removal of the cAMP by Sephadex G-25 chromatography. In contrast, in crude xtracts of heart, the protein kinase dissociates rapidly in the presence of 700 mug per ml of histone or 0.5 M NaCl and reassociates slowly after removal of cAMP. These differences are accounted for by the existence of two types of protein kinases in these tissues, referred to as types I and II. DEAE-cellulose chromatography of extracts of adipose tissue produces only one peak of cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity (type II) which elutes between 0.15 and 0.25 M NaCl. Similar chromatography of heart extracts resolves enzyme activity into two peaks; a type I enzyme which elutes between 0.05 and 0.1 M and predominates (greater than 75% of total activity), and a type II enzyme which elutes between 0.15 and 0.25 M NaCl. The dissociation properties of the types I and II enzymes from heart and adipose tissue are retained after partial purification by DEAE-cellulose and Sepharose 6B chromatography. Rechromatography of the separated peaks of the cardiac enzymes does not change the elution pattern. Sucrose density gradient centrifugation and gel filtration studies indicate that the molecular weights of these enzymes are very similar. The type II enzyme isolated by DEAE-cellulose chromatography of heart extracts resembles the adipose tissue enzyme, i.e. it undergoes slow dissociation at 30 degrees in the presence of histone or 0.5 M NaCl. The adipose tissue kinase and the heart type II kinase are not identical, however, since they do not elute at exactly the same point on DEAE-cellulose columns. A survey of several tissues indicates the presence of type I and II protein kinases similar to the enzymes in adipose tissue and heart as determined by DEAE-cellulose chromatography of crude extracts and by dissociation of the enzymes with histone. The presence of MgATP prevents dissociation of type I enzyme from heart by 0.5 M NaCl or histone. The profile of the enzyme on DEAE-cellulose, however, is not changed...

Complete conversion of skeletal muscle glycogen synthetase from the I form to the D form requires incorporation of 2 mol of phosphate per enzyme subunit (90,000 g). Incubation of sythetase I with low concentrations of adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate(cAMP)-dependent protein kinase (10 units/ml) and ATP (0.1 to 0.3 mM) plus magnesium acetate (10 mM) results in incorporation within 1/2 hour of 1 mol of phosphate persubunit concomitant with a decrease in the synthetase activity ratio (minus glucose-6-P/plus glucose-6-P) from 0.85 to 0.25. Further incubation for 6 hours does not greatly increase the phosphate content of the synthetase or promote conversion to the D form. This level of phosphorylation is not increased by raising the concentration of protein kinase to 150 units/ml and is not influenced by the presence of glucose-6-P, UDP-glucose, or glycogen. However, at protein kinase concentrations of 10,000 to 30,000 units/ml a second mol of phosphate is incorporated per subunit, and the sythetase activity ratio decreases to 0.05 or less. In addition to the 2 mol of phosphate persubunit which are required for formation of sythetase D, further phosphorylation can be observed which is not associated with changes in synthetase activity. This phosphorylation occurs at a slow rate, is increased by raising the ATP concentration to 2 to 4mM, and is not blocked by the heat-stable protein inhibitor of cAMP-dependent protein kinase. These data indicate that skeletal muscle glycogen synthetase contains multiple phosphorylation sites only two of which are involved in the synthetase I to D conversion.
