Phospholamban is the regulator of the Ca(2+)-ATPase in cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). The mechanism of regulation appears to involve inhibition by dephosphorylated phospholamban, and phosphorylation may relieve this inhibition. Fast-twitch skeletal muscle SR does not contain phospholamban, and it is not known whether the Ca(2+)-ATPase isoform from this muscle may be also subject to regulation by phospholamban in a similar manner as the cardiac isoform. To determine this we reconstituted the skeletal isoform of the SR Ca(2+)-ATPase with phospholamban in phosphatidylcholine proteoliposomes. Inclusion of phospholamban was associated with significant inhibition of the initial rates of Ca2+ uptake at pCa 6.0, and phosphorylation of phospholamban by the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase reversed the inhibitory effects on the Ca2+ pump. Similar effects of phospholamban were also observed using phosphatidylcholine:phosphatidylserine proteoliposomes, in which the Ca2+ pump was activated by the negatively charged phospholipids (24). Regulation of the Ca(2+)-ATPase appeared to involve binding with the hydrophilic portion of phospholamban, as evidenced by cross-linking experiments, using a synthetic peptide that corresponded to amino acids 1-25 of phospholamban. These findings suggest that the fast-twitch isoform of the SR Ca(2+)-ATPase may be also regulated by phospholamban, although this regulator is not expressed in fast-twitch skeletal muscles.

Phosphorylation of phospholamban (PLB), a membrane-bound 15 kDa protein and troponin I (TNI) was studied in isolated perfused rat hearts by using the back-phosphorylation technique with [32P]ATP catalysed by an excess of exogenous catalytic subunit of cyclic AMP (cAMP)-dependent protein kinase, followed by protein separation. This standardized method allows the quantitative detection of protein phosphorylation specifically stimulated by cAMP. In control hearts the extent of specific phosphorylation was equivalent to 3.3 nmol of PLB and 11.0 mumol of TNI per g of cardiac tissue. In hearts freeze-clamped 30 s after exposure to isoprenaline (10 pM-10 microM), there was a dose-dependent decrease in phosphate incorporation in vitro, indicating a phosphorylation of the respective proteins in vivo. A differential sensitivity of TNI and PLB phosphorylation towards the beta-adrenergic agonist and the subsequent increase in tissue cAMP was found, favouring TNI phosphorylation. K0.5 values for isoprenaline were 2.94 +/- 0.04 nM and 4.46 +/- 0.24 nM for PLB and the 15 kDa protein, but 0.13 +/- 0.01 nM for TNI phosphorylation in the intact tissue. At an isoprenaline-induced increase in cAMP less than 3 pmol/mg of protein there was no or only a small increase in PLB phosphorylation, whereas TNI phosphorylation was nearly maximal. By plotting phosphorylation data against changes in contractile parameters a strong correlation was obtained for TNI (r = 0.95), assuming a linear relationship. For PLB a complex relationship is likely to exist. Our data (i) indicate a functional compartmentalization of the cAMP signal cascade and (ii) confirm that phosphorylation of TNI rather than of PLB is related to changes in mechanical myocardial responses.

Noninsulin-dependent diabetes is associated with a decrease in the activity of sarcolemmal phosphatase 1, but no change in the activities of phosphatase 2A, 2B, or 2C. Also unaffected by diabetes were the activities of protein kinase C, cAMP-dependent protein kinase and calcium-calmodulin protein kinase. Because of the decrease in phosphatase 1 activity, 32P incorporation into sarcolemmal phosphoproteins catalyzed by either intrinsic protein kinases or extrinsic cAMP-dependent protein kinase was elevated in the diabetic. Among the proteins whose phosphorylation was elevated in diabetes was the phospholamban-like protein, which has been implicated in the regulation of ATP-dependent calcium transport. The phosphate-linked increase could be prevented by exposing the membranes to a phosphatase inhibitor and either extrinsic cAMP-dependent protein kinase or alamethicin. In addition to the phosphatase-linked effects, analysis of individual sarcolemmal phosphoproteins by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis indicated that diabetes caused a specific elevation in membrane phosphorylation of some proteins (43 kDa and 78 kDa), but a decrease in the phosphorylation state of other phosphoproteins (31 kDa and 49 kDa). The data indicate that membrane phosphorylation is dramatically altered by diabetes. The possibility that this contributes to altered myocardial function is discussed.

This paper describes the stimulation by cyclic nucleotide dependent protein kinases on the Ca2+ uptake by isolated endoplasmic reticulum (ER) vesicles from the bovine main pulmonary artery. This ER fraction has previously been shown to be highly enriched in phospholamban, a protein kinase substrate that has been well characterized in cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR), where its phosphorylation is accompanied by an increased rate of Ca2+ uptake. As previously observed for the phosphorylation of phospholamban, the stimulation of the rate of Ca uptake was as high with cGMP dependent protein kinase as with cAMP dependent protein kinase. The effect of phosphorylation of the ER membranes from smooth muscle on the Ca2+ uptake was smaller than that seen in cardiac SR, and it was only observed if albumin was included during the isolation of the membranes. This relatively small effect is probably not due to a lower ratio of phospholamban to Ca2(+)-transport enzyme in the ER membranes as compared to cardiac SR. Several alternative explanations are discussed.

Effects of endotoxin administration on the phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of phospholamban in canine cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) were studied. Results obtained 4 h after endotoxin administration show that the Ca2(+)-calmodulin dependent phosphorylation of phospholamban was reduced by 17-25% (P less than 0.05). Kinetic analysis reveals that the Vmax values for Ca2+, for calmodulin, and for ATP for the Ca2(+)-calmodulin dependent phosphorylation were significantly decreased, while the S0.5 values (for Ca2+ and calmodulin) and the Km (for ATP) and Hill coefficients (for Ca2+ and calmodulin) remained unaffected during endotoxic shock. The cAMP-dependent phosphorylation of phospholamban measured in the presence of the exogenously added catalytic subunit of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase remained unaffected. The basal/endogenous (cAMP- and Ca2(+)-independent) phosphorylation of phospholamban was significantly decreased after endotoxin administration. The half-time for the dephosphorylation of phospholamban prephosphorylated in the presence of Ca2+ and calmodulin was shortened by 58% (P less than 0.01) in endotoxin shock. These data indicate that the phosphorylation of phospholamban was inhibited while the dephosphorylation was stimulated in canine cardiac SR during endotoxin shock. Since the phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of phospholamban in cardiac SR plays an important role in the control of myocardial contractility, these findings may have a pathophysiological significance in contributing to the understanding of myocardial dysfunction in endotoxin shock.

1. The properties of intracellular Ca2+ stores of intact- and of saponin-skinned A7r5 (an established cell line from embryonic rat aorta) smooth muscle cells were studied by measuring 45Ca2+ and 54Mn2+ fluxes. 2. Application of 5 microM-vasopressin to intact cells increased the fractional loss of 45Ca2+ in Ca2(+)-free solution by a factor of 5.2. This effect was not influenced by a pre-incubation with 10 microM-ryanodine. Caffeine (25 mM) did not stimulate the fractional loss of 45Ca2+ from intact cells. 3. In skinned cells 10 microM-IP3 (inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate) and 5 microM-A23187 (a calcium ionophore) released the same amount of 45Ca2+. This release did not require GTP and was not affected by a pre-incubation with 10 microM-ryanodine. Caffeine (25 mM) did not release stored Ca2+. 4. NaF (1 mM) plus 10 microM-AlCl3 inhibited by 72% the 45Ca2+ uptake by the IP3-sensitive store of skinned cells at 0.15 microM-Ca2+. Cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase did not stimulate this ATP-dependent 45Ca2+ uptake, nor could the presence of phospholamban be demonstrated immunologically. 5. The 45Ca2+ uptake by cells which had been depleted of Ca2+ with 5 microM-vasopressin was 69% higher than the uptake obtained without such proceeding depletion. This enhanced 45Ca2+ uptake did not occur through voltage-operated Ca2+ channels, because blockade of these channels with verapamil, or depolarization of the plasma membrane by increasing [K+] from 5.9 to 59 mM in the presence of verapamil, did not modify this uptake. 6. A similar increase of the 54Mn2+ uptake occurred in intact cells with a depleted Ca2+ store. If, however, the cells were first skinned and subsequently exposed to 54Mn2+, the ATP-dependent 54Mn2+ uptake amounted to less than 6% of the ATP-dependent 45Ca2+ uptake. 7. If intact cells were first exposed to a 45Ca2(+)- or 54Mn2(+)-containing solution, and subsequently skinned in a non-radioactive intracellular solution, the addition of 10 microM-A23187 to these cells released stored Ca2+ or Mn2+. The amount of released Ca2+ was only slightly larger than the amount of released Mn2+. If the intracellular store was depleted before loading, the amount of Ca2+ or Mn2+ released by the ionophore increased by 68 and 28%, respectively. 8. It is concluded that A7r5 smooth muscle cells do not express a Ca2(+)-induced Ca2+ release mechanism, but do contain an IP3-induced Ca2+ release mechanism which can release approximately all intracellularly accumulated 45Ca2+.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Acceleration of cardiac relaxation upon beta adrenergic stimulation is due, in part, to enhancement in the rate of Ca2+ sequestration by the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ pump resulting from cAMP-mediated phosphorylation of the SR protein phospholamban. Our previous studies have shown that in rat myocardium, beta adrenergic activation of adenylate cyclase and the Ca2+ pump activity of SR decline with aging (Mech. Ageing Dev., 19 (1982) 127-139; 38 (1987) 127-143). In the present study, the effect of aging on phospholamban phosphorylation and consequent changes in SR Ca2+ pump activity were evaluated using cardiac SR from 6 (young adult), 12 (adult) and 28 (aged) months old rats. No age-related differences were observed in the rate or maximum level of phospholamban phosphorylation by exogenous cAMP-dependent protein kinase. The rates of ATP-dependent Ca2+ uptake by SR from young adult and aged rats were stimulated upon phospholamban phosphorylation, the percentage stimulation of Ca2+ uptake at varying Ca2+ concentrations (0.24-11.9 microM) was not diminished with aging. However, the rates of Ca2+ uptake by phosphorylated and unphosphorylated SR were remarkably lower (35-50%) in the aged. Regardless of the age of rats, the stimulatory effect of phosphorylation on Ca2+ uptake by SR was due to increase in Vmax of Ca2+ transport with no appreciable changes in K0.5 for Ca2+. These findings imply that in spite of the age-associated decline in SR Ca2+ pump activity, the ability of phospholamban to undergo cAMP-mediated phosphorylation and the relative responsiveness of the SR Ca2+ pump to phospholamban phosphorylation are not diminished in the aging heart.

Six electrophoretically distinct species of oligomeric phospholamban were identified immunologically following phosphorylation of sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles by cAMP-dependent protein kinase. The phosphate content of each was determined, confirming that the discrete sequential retardation of phospholamban oligomers was the result of ascending mole ratios of phosphate (P0-P5) per oligomer. These data afford support to the pentameric arrangement of oligomeric phospholamban and offer a means of determining phosphorylation stoichiometry independent of the absolute phospholamban concentration. Detection of the relative concentration of individual species during phosphorylation facilitated the description of a random mechanism of phosphorylation by cAMP-dependent protein kinase. By contrast, dephosphorylation of cAMP-dependent protein kinase phosphorylated phospholamban was shown to exhibit strong positive cooperativity in its reaction mechanism.

Intracellular Ca2+ concentrations in cardiac cells are dependent on trans-sarcolemmal Ca2+ fluxes and the ability of sarcoplasmic reticulum to release and take up Ca2+. Ca2+ accumulation by sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes causes muscle to relax, whereas Ca2+ release from sarcoplasmic reticulum initiates contraction. Ca2+ transport by the sarcoplasmic is mediated by a Ca2+-dependent ATPase enzyme. Ca2+ release from sarcoplasmic reticulum may be mediated by a ligant-gated Ca2+ channel. The physiological role of sarcoplasmic reticulum in developing muscle is not well established. In this report we investigated the composition and function of sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes during cardiac myogenesis. Phospholamban, a major phosphoprotein in mature sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes was present during early stages of cardiac myogenesis. The embryonic form of phospholamban was phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase but not in the presence of Ca2+ and calmodulin. Ca2+ uptake and Ca2+-dependent ATPase activity were low in fetal sarcoplasmic reticulum compared to adult control membranes, although the apparent affinities of the enzyme for Ca2+ were similar. Sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles used in these studies had very low levels of plasma membrane and mitochondrial contamination. The amounts of both 110-kDa Ca2+-ATPase and 55-kDa calsequestrin in the sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane were lower in fetal sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles compared to mature membranes. Ca2+-ATPase and calsequestrin were identified in the isolated sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles using specific antibodies produced against these membrane proteins. Age-related differences in Ca2+ transport properties of cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum and in the amount of Ca2+-ATPase and calsequestrin may explain alterations in the regulation of intracellular Ca2+ concentrations in fetal heart muscle. This may relate to the developmental changes observed in myocardial function.

Canine cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum is phosphorylated by an endogenous calcium X calmodulin-dependent protein kinase and phosphorylation occurs mainly on a 27 kDa proteolipid, called phospholamban. To determine whether this phosphorylation has any effect on Ca2+ release, sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles were phosphorylated by the calcium X calmodulin-dependent protein kinase, while non-phosphorylated vesicles were preincubated under identical conditions but in the absence of ATP to avoid phosphorylation. Both non-phosphorylated and phosphorylated vesicles were centrifuged to remove calmodulin, and subsequently used for Ca2+ release studies. Calcium loading was carried out either by the active calcium pump or by incubation with high (5 mM) calcium for longer periods. Phosphorylation of sarcoplasmic reticulum by calcium X calmodulin-dependent protein kinase had no appreciable effect on the initial rates of Ca2+ released from cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles loaded under passive conditions and on the apparent 45Ca2+-40Ca2+ exchange from cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles loaded under active conditions. Thus, it appears that calcium X calmodulin-dependent protein kinase mediated phosphorylation of cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum is not involved in the regulation of Ca2+ release and 45Ca2+-40Ca2+ exchange.
