Glucagon causes a rapid activation of cAMP-dependent protein kinase in rat liver parenchymal cells which correlates well with the accumulation of cAMP. Full activation of phosphorylase or inactivation of glycogen synthase is achieved with half-maximal or less activation of protein kinase. Epinephrine stimulates glycogen breakdown in these cells mainly by mechanisms involving alpha-adrenergic receptors and not beta-receptors. Activition of alpha-receptors results in rapid activation of phosphorylase and inactivation of glycogen synthase without accumulation of cAMP or activation of cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Activation of beta-receptors causes a transient rise in cAMP and a short-lived activation of protein kinase with correspondingly little stimulation of glycogenolysis.

Properties and partial purification of the bovine adrenal cholesterol esterase from the 100000 X g supernatant fraction were investigated. Variations of the enzyme activity with time-dependent (enzymatic) and time-dependent (non enzymatic) effects have been demonstrated. Mg2 has been proved to inhibit the enzyme activity by a non-enzymatic effect in 50mM Tris/HCl buffer, pH 7.4. A time-dependent inactivation of the cholesterol esterase has been observed in the same buffer. The enzyme could be protected from this enzymatic inactivation by its substrate, cholesterol oleate. cAMP, ATP and Mg2 cuase a time-dependent stimulation of the enzyme in 50mM Tris/HCl buffer, pH 7.4. This result suggests that corticotropin activates the soluble cholesterol esterase from bovine adrenals via cAMP-dependent protein kinase. This view is strengthened by the incorporation of 32P radioactivity from [gamma-32P] ATP into the protein fraction of the 100,000 X g supernatant. The protein-bound 32P radioactivity could be co-purified with the enzyme activity during the partial purification of the soluble cholesterol esterase.

Membranes of rat caudate nucleus contain a dopamine-dependent adenylate cyclase [ATP pyrophosphate-lyase (cyclizing), EC 4.6.1.1] and a Ca++ binding protein that activates phosphodiesterase (3':5'-cyclic-AMP 5'-nucleotidohydrolase, EC 3.1.4.17). This activator can be released from the membranes by a phosphorylation with a 3':5' cAMP-dependent protein kinase (ATP-protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37). Under the conditions of membrane phosphorylation and activator release, dopamine fails to activate striatal adenylate cyclase. The basal activity of this enzyme is not decreased by the release of the protein activator but the activation by NaF is reduced. Adenylate cyclase is not phosphorylated when the dopamine activation is blocked after the release of the activator, but other membrane proteins are phosphorylated. It is postulated that the endogenous protein stored in striatal membranes can regulate the intracellular concentration of cAMP by an activation of adenylate cyclase while stored in striatal membrane, and by an activation of phosphodiesterase when released into the cytosol after membrane phosphorylation.

Phosphorylase kinase was found to be activated and phosphorylated at 10mM Mg2+ by the cAMP-dependent protein kinase-catalyzed reaction ot much higher levels than observed previously when reactions were carried out in 1 to 2 mM Mg2+ (Cohen, P. (1973) Eur. J. Biochem. 34, 1; Hayakawa, T., Perkin, J.P., and Krebs, E.G. (1973) Biochemistry 12, 574). That the reaction at 10 mM Mg2+ is protein kinase-catalyzed is supported by several observations: (a) the reaction is facilitated by the addition of protein kinase; (b) the reaction depends on cAMP when protein kinase holoenzyme is uded; (c) the reaction is not inhibited by 1 mM ethylene glycol bis(beta-aminoethyl ether) N,N'-tetraacetate which is known to inhibit autoactivation and autophosphorylation of phosphorylase kinase; and (d) the protein inhibitor of protein kinase inhibits this reaction. The phosphorylation and activation of phosphorylase kinase seem to occur in two phases. At low Mg2+ only the first phase is manifested and involves the incorporation of 2 mol of phosphate, 1 mol into each of Subunits A and B. At high Mg2+ additional sites are phosphorylated almost exclusively on Subunit A, with phosphate incorporation approaching the final level of 7 to 9 mol. Enzyme activity at high Mg2+ is 2 to 3 times higher than that observed when activation is studied at low Mg2+. The observation that both casein and type II histone are phosphorylated to the same extent at 1 mM and 10 mM Mg2+ suggested that high Mg2+ may be altering the conformation of phosphorylase kinase thus rendering more phosphorylation sites accessible to protein kinase. Since the phosphorylation of phosphorylase kinase by either the protein kinase-catalyzed or autocatalytic reaction can result in the incorporation of 7 to 9 mol of phosphate, the finding that only about seven sites become phosphorylated by both mechanisms acting together suggest that activation by these two mechanisms may involve common phosphorylation sites.

There is broad species variation in the type of cAMP-dependent protein kinase isozyme present in supernatant fractions of heart homogenates as determined by DEAE-cellulose chromatography, Isozyme I, which elutes at less than 0.1 M NaCl, is predominant in mouse and rat hearts; while isozyme II, which elutes at greater than 0.1 M NaCl, is the predominant type in beef and guinea pig. Human and rabbit hearts contain about equal amounts of the two types. The type I heart kinases are more easily dissociated into free regulatory and catalytic subunits by incubation with histone than are the type II kinases, and the separated regulatory and catalytic subunits of isozyme II of rat heart reassociate more rapidly than the subunits of isozyme I under the conditions used. The data from several experiments using rat heart indicate that the basal activity ratio of the protein kinase in crude extracts (approximately 0.15) is due mainly to basal endogenous cAMP and that cAMP elevation accounts entirely for the epinephrine effect on the enzyme. Addition of epinephrine and 1-methyl-3-isobutylxanthine to the perfusate causes a rapid (1 min) increase in cAMP, active supernatant protein kinase, and active phosphorylase in perfused hearts of both rat (mainly isozyme I) and guinea pig (mainly isozyme II). The elevation percentage in cAMP is about the same in the two species, but the increase in active protein kinase is greater in rat heart. If hearts from either animal are perfused continually (10 min) with epinephrine (0.8 muM) and 1-methyl-3-isobutylxanthine (10 muM), the cAMP level, active protein kinase, and active phosphorylase remain elevated. Likewise, all parameters return rapidly to the basal levels when epinephrine and 1-methyl-3-isobutylxanthin are removed. Most of the epinephrine effect on the rat heart supernatant kinase is retained at 0 degrees if cAMP is removed by Sephadex G-25 chromatography, although this procedure completely reverses the epinephrine effect in the guinea pig heart. The epinephrine effect on the rabbit heart kinase (approximately equal amounts of isozymes I and II) is partially reversed by Sephadex G-25. These species differences can be accounted for by differences in association-dissociation behavior of the isozymes in vitro. The data suggest that epinephrine causes activation of both isozymes. The activity present in the particulate fraction comprises nearly half of the total cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity in homogenates of rabbit heart. Triton X-100 extracts of low speed particulate fractions from hearts of each species tested, including rat heart, contain predominantly or entirely the type II isozyme, suggesting differences in intracellular distribution of the isozymes. The binding of the protein kinase to the particulate fraction is apparently due to the properties of the regulatory subunit component. Differences in topographical distribution of the isozymes could provide for differences in either physiological regulation or substrate specificity.

Ripe Xenopus oocytes in first meiotic prophase when incubated with progesterone in vitro progress synchronously in 3 to 5 h without interphase to second meiotic metaphase where they remain until fertilization or activation. Using highly purified preparations of regulatory and catalytic subunits of adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate-dependent protein kinase from muscle, this progesterone-stimulated cell division sequence was found to be inhibited by microinjection of the catalytic subunit and induced directly in the absence of progesterone after microinjection of regulatory subunit. Dose-response curves revealed that half-maximal effects of regulatory and catalytic subunits occurred at an internal concentration of approximately 0.1 muM. These results indicate that the catalytic subunit is necessary and sufficient to block progesterone-stimulated meiotic cell division. Other experiments revealed that the catalytic subunit was inhibitory only during the first hour after progesterone exposure, suggesting that initial steps in meiotic cell division are affected. Control experiments demonstrate that the muscle cAMP-dependent protein kinase subunits may interact with the endogenous oocyte protein kinase. The results support a model in which meiotic cell division is regulated by a phosphoprotein subject to control by cAMP-dependent protein kinase.

Protein kinase activity has been studied in four human adrenocortical tumors and compared to the one of the normal human adrenal. In two cases where the lack of action of ACTH was related to an anomaly of ACTH receptor, the protein kinase activity was normal. In the other two cases the ACTH receptor was normal, but the protein kinase activity was different from that of the normal adrenal. In one of these cases where the steroidogenesis response of isolated tumor cells to ACTH and DcAMP was higher than in normal adrenal, basal and cAMP stimulated protein kinase activities were significantly higher than those of the normal adrenal, but the activation constants of both nucleotides were similar to those of the normal gland. In the other case, the basal and the cAMP stimulated protein kinase activities were significantly lower, as well as the activation constant of cAMP. However, the binding affinity of 3H-cAMP was normal. Normal adrenal cytosol contains three protein kinases, as resolved by DEAE-cellulose, two of which designated I and II, are cAMP-dependent. The DEAE-cellulose chromatography of the last tumor showed a loss of isoenzyme II. In addition, the protein kinase eluted at the same molarity as that of isoenzyme I of the normal adrenal was not activated by cAMP. Therefore, the lack of response to ACTH of some adrenocortical human tumors may be attributed either to an anomaly of the ACTH receptor or to some defect of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase.

Two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis is used to visualize the regulatory subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase from cultured S49 mouse lymphoma cells and to demonstrate its in vivo phosphorylation. Regulatory subunits from mutant cells with altered kinases exhibit at least two patterns of charge shifts consistent with substitutions of single amino acids. The direct demonstration of structural alteration of this protein provides strong evidence for structural gene mutation in this cultured cell system. While mutant and wild-type gene products co-exist in the mutant cells, there is apparently preferential expression and phosphorylation of mutant subunit in these heterozygotes.

Fifteen 3',5'-cyclic nucleotides and related compounds were studied for ability to mimic the steroidogenic action of ACTH in rats in which secretion of ACTH and corticosterone were suppressed by treatment with betamethasone, or by hypophysectomy. Subcutaneous administration of 8-chloro-cAMP, at doses of 40 mg/kg or greater, elicited the secretion of corticosterone to normal plasma levels in both betamethasone-treated and hypophysectomized animals. Cyclic AMP, dbcAMP, 8-methylthio-cAMP, 8-hydroxy-cAMP and the 6-chloro-8-aminopurine cyclic ribotide analog of cAMP also displayed steroidogenic activity in the betamethasone-treated rat; cGMP, 8-bromo-cGMP and 8-benzylthio-cGMP were inactive. Each of the steroidogenic derivatives of cAMP also displayed ability to activate steroidogenesis in isolated rat adrenal cells. These experiments demonstrate that various derivatives of cAMP mimic the adrenal steroidogenic action of ACTH, in vivo. Structure-activity comparisons support a steroidogenic mechanism involving direct activation by the nucleotides of cAMP-dependent protein kinase of the adrenal cortex.

Incubation of purified cyclic guanosine 3':5'-monophospate-dependent protein kinase with [gamma-32P]ATP and Mg2+ led to formation of one 32P-labeled protein, Mr = 75,000, which corresponded to the single protein band detected after polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulfate. When electrophoresis was performed without detergent, the labeled protein coincided with the position of cGMP-dependent protein kinase activity. Phosphorylation was enhanced severalfold by either histone or cAMP and was inhibited by the addition of cGMP. Low concentrations of cGMP blocked the stimulatory effects of cAMP or histone (or both). Since neither cAMP-dependent protein kinase nor cGMP-dependent phosphoprotein phosphatase activities were detected in the purified enzyme, we concluded that the cGMP-dependent protein kinase is a substrate for its own phosphotransferase activity and that other protein substrates (histone) and cyclic nucleotides modulate the process of self-phosphorylation.
