Two different mechanisms for the active accumulation of Ca2+ by subcellular fractions of human umbilical artery are described. One, located in the mitochondrial fraction, was induced by exogenous ATP or respiratory substrates (ADP and succinate) and was inhibited by azide. The other, located in the microsomal fraction, was induced by ATP and potentiated by oxalate, but not inhibited by azide. Increasing ATP concentrations up to 4-5 mM increased microsomal Ca2+ accumulation, whereas increasing ATP concentration above 2-3 mM caused inhibition of mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake. Although changing pH from 7.4 to 7.2 had no effect on mitochondrial Ca2+ accumulation, it doubled microsomal uptake. Neither adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate nor guanosine 3',5'-monophosphate in the presence or absence of protein kinase and kinase modulator affected Ca2+ uptake by or phosphorylation of the subcellular fractions. Partially purified protein kinases from umbilical and beef skeletal muscle contained a component(s) distinguishable from the kinase on the basis of its heat stability that enhanced ATP-induced Ca2+ uptake by mitochondrial fractions from the umbilical artery. It is suggested that alterations in Ca2+ sequestration induced by changes in ATP concentration and intracellular pH in mitochondrial and microsomal fractions, respectively, could play a role in the control of arterial patency and closure with changes in PO2.

Exposure of 32P-labelled human platelets to ionophore A23187 results in an increased incorporation of 32P into polypeptides with apparent mol.wts. of 47 000 (P47) and 20 000 (P20), whereas exposure to prostaglandin E1 results in increased labelling of polypeptides with apparent mol.wts. of 24 000 (P24) and 22 000 (P22) [Haslam, Lynham & Fox (1979) Biochem. J. 178, 397-406]. Labelled platelets that had been incubated with ionophore A23187 or prostaglandin E1 were sonicated and rapidly separated into three fractions by differential centrifugation. Electron microscopy and measurement of marker enzymes indicated that the 1300-19 000 gav. particulate fraction was enriched in granules, mitochondria and plasma membranes, that the 19 000-90 000 gav. particulate fraction was enriched in both intracellular and plasma membranes and that the 90 000 gav. supernatant contained only soluble proteins. 32P-labelled phosphopolypeptide P47 was present almost exclusively in the 90 000 gav. supernatant, whereas phosphopolypeptide P20 was largely dephosphorylated under fractionation conditions that protected other phosphopolypeptides. 32P-labelled phosphopolypeptide P24 was enriched in both particulate fractions, but particularly in the 19 000-90 000 gav. fraction, and may therefore be present in both the intracellular and plasma membranes. Phosphopolypeptide P22 appeared to be similarly distributed. Both particulate fractions were capable of the ATP-dependent oxalate-stimulated uptake of Ca2+. When the 19 000-90 000 gav. membrane fraction was prepared from platelets that had been incubated with ionophore A23187, active uptake of Ca2+ did not occur, but when this fraction was isolated from platelets that had been exposed to prostaglandin E1, uptake of Ca2+ was significantly greater than observed with the corresponding membranes from control platelets. It is suggested that phosphorylation of polypeptide P24 (or P22) by a cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase may promote the active transport of Ca2+ out of the platelet cytosol.

The purpose of this study was to determine whether the previously reported differences in adenylate cyclase activity between the sarcolemma of normal and dystrophic chick muscles are also found in the SR, to search for a possible relationship between the adenylate cyclase changes and the pathophysiology of dystrophy, and to investigate whether the findings can be extended to Duchenne human muscular dystrophy by studying the adenylate cyclase and ATPase activities of erythrocyte ghosts from DMD patients and carriers. Microsomes were separated by standard techniques from the pectoralis muscles of normal and dystrophic ckeckens of various ages. The microsomal yields were significantly larger in dystrophic muscles. Adenylate cyclase activities in dystrophic microsomes were higher than those in matched controls and increased with the progression of the disease. The ratio between the two rose from one at 2 weeks of age to nine at about 9--10 weeks. Kinetic analyses showed that the ks for MgATP2- was about 40 microM (at 3 mM Mg2+ and 0.3 mM Ca2+) both in normal and dystrophic microsomes, that calcium caused umcompetitive inhibition of the enzyme (Ki = 0.2 mM), that the effect of calcium was noncooperative (Hill coefficient, nH = 1), that calcium did not affect the cooperativity for MgATP2-, and that magnesium competitively removed the calcium inhibition and caused additional, cooperative stimulation of the enzymatic activity (ka = 1.5 mM; NH =2). The major difference between normal and dystrophic adenylate cyclase was a higher enzymatic velocity in the latter, suggesting a larger amount of enzyme. We investigated whether altered cAMP levels may effect calcium accumulation. Calcium uptake measured (in the presence of oxalate) at several ages revealed no difference between normal and dystrophic chickens. The extent of calcium binding was also similar, although the kd for Ca2+ was lower in dystrophic microsomes. Binding was enhanced in the presence of exogenous protein kinase, but the responses of normal and dystrophic tissues were similar. We concluded that the elevation of adenylate cyclase in dystrophy was not related to microsomal calcium accumultion. Ivestigation of the localization of microsomal adenylate cyclase supported this view. Separation of calcium-loaded microsomes on a discontinuous sucrose gradient into four fractions demonstrated that adenylate cyclase activity, measured in the presence of Lubrol-PX and EGTA, was inversely related to calcium-accumulating activity. Na+, K+-ATPase comigrated with adenylate cyclase. Highest specific activities were found in the lightest fraction. These observations were confirmed by histochemical studies. The reaction product from adenylate cyclase activity was present predominantly in the terminal cisternae of the SR. In the context of the literature, our findings suggest that the rises in adenylate cyclase and Na+, K+-ATPase in avian dystrophy are compensatory changes, elicited by a defect in ECC at the calcium release step...

The effect of cyclic AMP on Ca2+ uptake by rabbit heart microsomal vesicular fractions representing mainly fragments of either sarcoplasmic reticulum or sarcolemma was investigated in the presence and absence of soluble cardiac protein kinase and with microsomes prephosphorylated by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. The acceleration of oxalate-promoted Ca2+ uptake by fragmented sarcoplasmic reticulum following cyclic AMP-dependent membrane protein phosphorylation, observed by other authors, was confirmed. In addition it was found that the acceleration was greatest at pH 7.2 and almost negligible at pH 6.0 and pH 7.8. A very marked increase in Ca2+ uptake by cyclic AMP-dependent membrane protein phosphorylation was observed in the presence of boric acid, a reversible inhibitor of Ca2+ uptake. In addition to the microsomal fraction thought to represent mainly fragments of the sarcoplasmic reticulum, the effect of protein kinase and cyclic AMP on Ca2+ uptake was investigated in a cardiac sarcolemma-enriched membrane fraction. Ca2+ uptake by sarcolemmal vesicles, unlike Ca2+ uptake by sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles, was inhibited by low doses of digitoxin. The acceleration of oxalate-promoted Ca2+ uptake by cyclic AMP and soluble cardiac protein kinase, however, was quite similar to what was seen in preparations of fragmented sarcoplasmic reticulum, which suggests that it may reflect an acceleration of active Ca2+ transport across the myocardial cell surface membrane.

The events involved in platelet shape change, aggregation, the release reaction and contraction are thought to be mediated by the availability of Ca2+. Increased cytoplasmic calcium, released from intracellular stores, triggers platelet activity, and increased concentration of adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cyclic AMP) inhibits platelet alterations. We have studied the hypothesis that cyclic AMP may regulate the level of platelet cytoplasmic calcium by stimulating calcium removal by a membrane system. Such a hypothesis would be consistent with the reversibility of most manifestations of platelet activation. Human platelets were sonicated and unlysed platelets, mitochondria and granules were removed by centrifugation at 19 000 X g. Electron microscopy shows that the sediment, after centrifugation of the supernatant at 40 000 X g consists to a large extent of membrane vesicles. Such preparations actively concentrate calcium, as measured by the uptake of 45Ca, and also have the maximal calcium-stimulated ATPase activity. Optimal calcium uptake requires ATP and oxalate, and release of calcium from loaded vesicles was stimulated by the calcium ionophore A23187 and inhibited by LaCl3. These data indicate that calcium was being actively concentrated within membrane vesicles. After washing of such preparations in the absence of ATP, their capacity to take up Ca2+ is reduced to an initial value of 2.8 nmol/mg protein per min. In the presence of 2 - 10(6) M cyclic AMP to which was added a protein kinase preparation from human platelets, up to a 3-fold increase of this rate of uptake was observed. These results suggest that in platelets, as in muscle, cyclic AMP is a regulatory factor in the control of cytoplasmic calcium. Although the cyclic nucleotide may have still other functions, it appears likely that the well-known inhibition of many platelet activities by high intracellular cyclic AMP concentrations is directly linked to the stimulation of the removal of Ca2+ from the cytoplasm.

1. Calcium transport into microsomal vesicles of respiratory (tracheal) smooth muscle was characterized. This calcium transport was ATP dependent and stimulated by the presence of the oxalate ion. The magnitude of transport was similar to that reported for microsomes from other types of smooth muscle. 2. Bovine and rabbit, heavy and light microsomes were isolated from respiratory (tracheal) and vascular (aortic) smooth muscle. Preincubation of these vesicles with cyclic AMP and protein kinase did not alter the transport of calcium into the vesicles. There uas no evidence of phosphate incorporation into microsomal membrane proteins. Similar results were obtained if phosphorylase b kinase replaced the combination of cyclic AMP and protein kinase during the preincubation. 3. The phosphoprotein phosphatase activity of cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum and smooth muscle microsomes was determined. The activity of this enzyme was found to be several-fold less in the cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum than in various smooth muscle microsome preparations.

Properties of the ATP-dependent calcium transport system of heart sarcolemma are presented. Calcium accumulation (with oxalate) in sarcolemma was increased due to cAMP-dependent protein kinase and phosphorylase b kinase. Protein kinase increased the Vmax of the sarcolemmal calcium accumulation without any detectable effect on the affinity for Ca2+. Both kinases failed to stimulate calcium binding. Protein kinase catalyzed phosphorylation of membrane proteins of molecular weights of 100,000, 25,000, and 14,000. Phosphorylase b kinase also catalyzed phosphorylation of these proteins. Protein kinase stimulated ATPase activity of sarcolemma. Sarcolemma contained endogenous protein kinase and protein phosphatase activities.

The effects of adenosine 3' : 5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP), guanosine 3' : 5'-monophosphate (cyclic GMP) and exogenous protein kinase on Ca uptake and membrane phosphorylation were studied in subcellular fractions of vascular smooth muscle from rabbit aorta. Two functionally distinct fractions were separated on a continuous sucrose gradient: a light fraction enriched in endoplasmic reticulum (fraction E) and a heavier fraction containing mainly plasma membranes (fraction P). While cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP had no effect on Ca uptake in the absence of oxalate, both cyclic nucleotides inhibited the rate of oxalate-activated Ca uptake when used at concentrations higher than 10(-5) M. The addition of bovine heart protein kinase to either fraction produced an increase in the rate of oxalate-activated Ca uptake which was further augmented by cyclic AMP. Cyclic GMP caused smaller stimulations of protein kinase-catalyzed Ca uptake than cyclic AMP. Mg-dependent phosphorylation, attributable to endogenous protein kinase(s), was inhibited in fraction E by low concentrations (10(-8) M) of both cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP. In fraction P, an inhibition by cyclic AMP occurred also at a concentration of 10(-8) M, while with cyclic AMP a concentration of 10(-5) M was required for a similar inhibition. Bovine heart protein kinase stimulated the phosphorylation of the membrane fractions much more than Ca uptake. In fraction E, in the presence of bovine protein kinase, both cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP stimulated phosphorylation up to 200%. Under these conditions, no stimulation was observed in fraction P. These results are compatible with the hypothesis that in vascular smooth muscle soluble rather than particulate protein kinases are involved in the regulation of intracellular Ca concentration.

Sarcolemmal and sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane vesicle fractions were isolated from cardiac microsomes. Separation of sarcolemmal and sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane markers was documented by a combination of correlative assay and centrifugation techniques. To facilitate the separation, the crude microsomes were incubated in the presence of ATP, Ca2+, and oxalate to increase the density of the sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles. After sucrose gradient centrifugation, the densest subfraction (sarcoplasmic reticulum) contained the highest (K+,Ca2+)-ATPase activity and virtually no (Na2+,K+)-ATPase activity, even when latent (Na+,K+)-ATPase activity was unmasked. In addition, the sarcoplasmic reticulum fraction contained no significant sialic acid, beta receptor binding activity, or adenylate cyclase activity. Sarcolemmal membrane fractions were of low buoyant density. Preparations most enriched in sarcolemmal vesicles contained the highest level of all the other parameters and only about 10% of the (K+,Ca2+)-ATPase activity of the sarcoplasmic reticulum fraction. The results suggest that (Na+,K+)-ATPase, sialic acid, beta-adrenergic receptors, and adenylate cyclase can be entirely accounted for by the sarcolemmal content of cardiac microsomes. Gel electrophoresis of the sarcolemmal and sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane fractions showed distinct bands. Membrane proteins exclusive to each of the fractions were also demonstrated by phosphorylation. Cyclic AMP stimulated phosphorylation by [gamma-32P]ATP of two proteins of apparent Mr = 20,000 and 7,000 that were concentrated in sarcoplasmic reticulum, but the stimulation was markedly dependent on the presence of added soluble cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. Cyclic AMP also stimulated phosphorylation of membrane proteins in sarcolemma, but this phosphorylation was mediated by an endogenous protein kinase activity. The apparent molecular weights of these phosphorylated proteins were 165,000, 90,000, 56,000, 24,000, and 11,000. The results suggest that sarcolemma may contain an integral enzyme complex, not present in sarcoplasmic reticulum, that contains beta-adrenergic receptors, adenylate cyclase, cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, and several substrates of the protein kinase.

Pigeon heart microsomes contain three minor size protein kinase substrates of minimal molecular weights of 22 000, 15 000, and 11500, as estimated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. When the microsomes were partially loaded with calcium oxalate and subjected to rate zonal and isopycnic centrifugations in sucrose density gradient columns, the 22 000 and the 15 000 dalton proteins settled in the heaviest fraction, which was composed mainly of vesicles of sarcoplasmic reticular membranes; the 11 500 dalton protein was concentrated in the lightest fractions, which consisted chiefly of vesicles of sarcolemmal origin. During incubation of the membrane fractions with Mg [gamma-32P]ATP significant amounts of 32P were incorporated into all these proteins. Incorporation of 32P into the 15 000 dalton protein was moderately and 32P incorporation into the 22 000 dalton protein was markedly enhanced in the presence of exogenous soluble cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase and cyclic AMP. The phosphorylation of the three proteins was virtually unaffected by Ca2+ concentrations up to 0.1 mM and by ethyleneglycol-bis-(beta-aminoethyl-ether)-N,N'-tetraacetic acid in the absence of added Ca2+. Phosphorylation of the 22 000 and the 11 500 dalton proteins occurred mainly at serine residues. In the 15 000 dalton protein threonine residues were the main site of endogenous phosphorylation. Nearly equal amounts of [32P]-phosphate were incorporated into threonine and serine residues of this protein, when phosphorylation was supported by exogenous cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase and cyclic AMP. The 15 000 dalton protein could be removed from its membrane attachment by extraction with an acidic chloroform/methanol mixture. This step opens the way for the purification of this membrane-bound protein kinase substrate.
