Homogeneous rabbit liver phosphorylase phosphatase (Brandt, H., Capulong, Z. L., and Lee, E. Y. C. (1975) J. Biol. Chem. 250, 8038-8044) also dephosphorylates glycogen synthase b. During purification, phosphorylase phosphatase and glycogen synthase phosphatase co-purified with a constant ratio of activities. The two activities co-migrated on disc gel electrophoresis. Both substrates competed with each other for the phosphatase, and both phosphatase activities were inhibited by lysine ethyl ester. It is concluded that liver phosphorylase phosphatase and glycogen synthase phosphatase have a common identity and that coordinate regulation of the phosphatase-catalyzed activation of glycogen synthase and inactivation of phosphorylase occurs in vivo. This provides a parallel and opposing mechanism to that mediated by adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate-dependent protein kinase, which coordinately inactivates glycogen synthase and, via phosphorylase kinase, activates phosphorylase. Maximal glycogen synthase phosphatase activity was observed near neutrality. Mg2+ and glucose-6-P activated the glycogen synthase phosphatase reaction and this activation was pH-dependent. The Km for glycogen synthase b was 0.12 muM.

Sarcoplasmic reticulum fragments isolated from dog cardiac muscle possess a calcium-accumulating system associated with a series of enzymes linked to glycogenolysis. These enzymes include: adenylate cyclase, cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, phosphorylase b kinase, phosphorylase (b/a, 30/1),"debrancher" enzyme, and glycogen (0.3 to 0.7 mg/mg of protein). The sarcoplasmic reticulum preparation produced glucose 1-phosphate and glucose from either endogenous or exogenous glycogen. Both the calcium-accumulating and glycogenolytic enzymes sediment in a single peak at 33% sucrose on a linear continous sucrose density gradient, and the complex remains intact throughout repeated washing. Glycogen particles appear to be associated with the sarcoplasmic reticulum in situ as well as in the isolated microsomal fraction. The sarcoplasmic reticulum-glycogenolytic complex, monitored by a linked enzyme spectrophotometric assay, shows several features: (a) activation of phosphorylase activity to peak rate occurs over a very rapid time course which cannot be duplicated using combinations of purified enzymes; (b) activation is inhibited by protein kinase inhibitor; (c) phosphorylase b functions as in the purified form with respect to AMP (Km, 0.3 mM); (d) in the presence of limiting amounts of glycogen, optimal phosphorylase b activity in the sarcoplasmic reticulum requires the presence of debrancher, and the activity is sensitive to inhibitors of that enzyme such as Tris, which suggests the possiblity that the enzymes bear a specific structual relationship to the glycogen present. Phosphorylase b leads to a activation in the sarcoplasmic reticulum was completely resistant to ethylene glycol bis(beta-aminoethyl either)-N,N'-tetraacetic acid (EGTA). Inhibition of calcium accumulation by or release of bound calcium from sarcoplasmic reticulum by X537A (RO 2-2985) did not alter the EGTA resistance. These results suggest that cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum is a complex organelle containing functions that may be related to excitation-contraction coupling and intermediary metabolism.

Addition of 10 micron of the alpha-adrenergic agonist phenylephrine to polymorphonuclear leukocytes suspended in glucose-free Krebs-Ringer bicarbonate buffer (pH 6.7) activated phosphorylase, inactivated glycogen synthase R maximally within 30 s, and resulted in glycogen breakdown. Phenylephrine increased 45Ca efflux relative to control of 45Ca prelabelled cells, but did not affect cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP) concentration. The effects of phenylephrine were blocked by 20 micron phentolamine and were absent in cells incubated at pH 7.4. The same unexplained dependency of extracellular pH was observed with 2.5 nM--2.5 micron glucagon, which activated phosphorylase and inactivated synthase-R, but in addition caused a 30-s burst in cAMP formation. 25 nM glucagon also increased 45Ca efflux. The activation of phosphorylase by phenylephrine and possibly also by glucagon are thought mediated by an increased concentration of cytosolic Ca2+ activating phosphorylase kinase. The effects of 5 micron isoproterenol or 5 micron epinephrine were independent of extracellular pH 6.7 and 7.4 and resulted in a sustained increase in cAMP, an activation of phosphorylase and inactivation of synthase-R within 15 s, and in glycogenolysis. The effects of both compounds were blocked by 10 micron propranolol, whereas 10 micron phentolamine had no effect on the epinephrine action. The efflux of 45Ca was not affected by either isoproterenol or epinephrine. The beta-adrenergic activation of phosphorylase is consistent with the assumption of a covalent modification of phosphorylase kinase by the cAMP dependent protein kinase. Phosphorylation of synthase-R to synthase-D can thus occur independently of increase in cAMP, but the evidence is inconclusive with respect to the cAMP dependent protein kinase also being active in this phosphorylation.

cAMP independent glycogen synthase kinase and phosvitin kinase activity was purified from the 180 000 x g supernatant of human polymorphonuclear leukocytes by ammonium sulphate precipitation and phosphocellulose chromatography. The cAMP independent glycogen synthase kinase eluted from the phosphocellulose at 0.54 M NaCl (peak A) separate from the major phosvitin kinase eluting at 0.68 M NaCl (peak B). The kinase activity of both peaks tended to form aggregates, but in the presence of 0.6 M NaCl, the peak B enzyme had Mr 250 000, 7.2S and the peak A enzyme Mr 38 000, 3.8S. The ratio between synthase kinase and phosvitin kinase activity in peak A was 1:3.2 and in peak B 1:31.4. In addition the kinase activities differed with respect to sensitivity to temperature, ionic strength and CaCl2. It is suggested that the peak A enzyme represents the cAMP independent glycogen synthase kinase of leukocytes, whereas the peak B enzyme is a phosvitin kinase, which is insignificantly contaminated with some synthase kinase (peak A) and contains a separate, second synthase kinase. Synthase kinase had Kmapp 4.2 microM for muscle glycogen synthease I and Kmapp 45 microM for ATP. GTP was a poor substrate. The activity was not influenced by cyclic nucleotides, Ca2+, or glucose-6-P. Synthase I from muscle and leukocytes was phosphorylated to a ratio of independence of less than 0.05.

The interaction between pyridoxal 5'-phosphate and the convertible serine of glycogen phosphorylase has been investigated by using: specific interconverting enzymes, phosphorylase kinase and phosphorylase phosphatase; effectors, glucose and glucose 6-phosphate; and a protein kinase and trypsin. Both phosphorylase kinase and phosphorylase phosphatase utilized the native protein while having little influence on the apoprotein. Removal of a peptide containing the critical serine residue gave phosphorylase b' from which the pyridoxal 5'-phosphate in phosphorylase has an important effect on enzymic interconversion.

Differences exist in the rates at which hormones are inactivated by, or dissociate from, their target tissues. The present studies examined the binding of biologically active TSH to thyroid slices and compared its characteristics to those of PGE. Canine thyroid slices were initally incubated with 5 mU/ML OF BOVINE TSH (TSH-Inital) for 15 min, washed and incubated in media free of hormone for 3 hr. At the conclusion of this second incubation period all slices were again washed. Some were then transferred to media containing 10-2M theophylline for a final 10 min incubation and subsequent measurement of cAMP and protein kinase, while others were transferred to media containing (l-14C)glucose without theophylline for a final 45 min incubation to assess glucose oxidation. Identically treated slices never exposed to TSH served as controls, while others were exposed to TSH only during the final 10 or 45 min incubation periods (TSH-Final). cAMP content determined after significantly increased in TSH-Initial (mean 2.98 plus or minus 0.36 (se) pmol/mg wet wt) compared to control (0.35 plus or minus 0.04), but was less than that in TSH-Final (5.76 plus or minus 0.51). This phenomenon was not unique to canine thyroid, since comparable results were noted in studies of human, bovine or porcine thyroid slices. The protein kinase activity ratio (-cAMP/+cAMP) and glucose oxidation of TSH-Initial were also significantly increased above control following the final 10 min or 45 min incubations respectively. Addition of trypsin to the 3 h incubation abolished the subsequent increase in cAMP in TSH-Initial, while addition of TSH antiserum appreciably reduced this increase. These results are consistent with the persistent binding of biologically active TSH to thyroid. By contrast, evidence of similar persistent binding of PGE1 to thyroid, glucagon to liver, or parathyroid hormone to renal cortex was lacking when assessed by an identical experimental procedure. Differences between the duration of interaction of TSH and PGE1 with thyroid may be dependent or a more gradual dissociation to tissue bound TSH, a more rapid inactivation of bound-PGE1, or both.

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.

Cadmium, in addition to producing a variety of toxic manifestations, is known to accumulate in certain "target" organs which include liver and kidney where histological and functional damage becomes apparent. The daily intraperitoneal injection of cadmium chloride for 21 or 45 days stimulated the activities of hepatic pyruvate carboxylase, phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase, fructose-1, 6-diphosphatase and glucose-6-phosphatase elevated blood glucose and urea, and lowered hepatic glycogen in rats. Whereas chronic Cd treatment failed to alter adenosine-3', 5'-monophosphate phosphodiesterase (PDE) activity, cyclic AMP (cAMY and the activity of basal and fluoride-stimulated forms of hepatic adenylate cyclase (AC) were markedly increased. However, the cAMP binding to hepatic protein kinase was decreased as was the kinase activity ration. An acute dose of Cd decreased hepatic glycogen content and increased blood glucose, serum urea, and hepatic cAMP. Chronic exposure to Cd induced adrenal hypertrophy and augmented adrenal norepinephrine and epinephrine as well as the activity of adrenal tyrosine hydroxylase. This treatment decreased prostatic and testicular weights of mature rats. Although cAMP as well as AC activity of the prostate gland were reduced, cAMP binding to the prostatic protein kinase was increased as was the activity of the cAMP-dependent form of the enzyme. Testicular AC and PDE activities, however, were stimulated, although cAMP remained unaffected. Whereas the activities of the cAMP-dependent and the independent forms of testicular protein kinase were significantly depressed, the binding of cAMP to protein kinase from testes of Cd-treated rats was not affected. In most cases, the observed metabolic alterations persisted up to 28 days on cessation of Cd administration. Subacute Cd treatment suppressed pancreatic function as evidenced by lowered serum immunoreactive insulin (IRI) in presence of hyperglycemia, as well as by partial inhibition of phentolamine-stimulated increases in serum IRI. Although chronic Cd treatment failed to alter the concentration of brain stem norepinephrine and cerebrocortical acetylcholine esterase activity, serotonin levels of brain stem were depressed and the concentration of striatal dopamine and cerebrocortical acetylcholine were significantly elevated when compared with the values seen in control nonexposed animals.

Testicular and cauda epididymal sperm were obtained via catheters previously implanted in the rete testis and proximal vas deferens of bulls and were used to examine the relationships among sperm motility, cyclic adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cAMP) level, adenine nucleotide levels, and rates of glucose and oxygen consumption. Testicular, cauda epididymal, and ejaculated sperm contain cAMP-stimulated protein kinase, adenylate cyclase, and nucleotide phosphodiesterase. Treatment of the nonmotile testicular sperm with phosphodiesterase inhibitors resulted in a doubling of cellular cAMP concentration and a 25% increase in their glucose consumption. No change in motility, ATP level, or rate of oxygen consumption was observed. Sperm in neat cauda epididymal semen had flagellating tails but no progressive motility. Dilution of these sperm into glucose-containing buffer resulted in an increase in intracellular cAMP concentration and a decrease in ATP level with concomitant increases in ADP and AMP levels. These biochemical changes occurred within 30 s after dilution and apparently preceded the initiation of progressive motility by most cells. Since sperm in neat cauda epididymal semen became progressively motile when diluted with neat cauda epididymal plasma as well as accessory sex gland fluid or buffer, composition of the fluid surrounding the sperm is not responsible for the initiation of progressive motility upon dilution nor does cauda epididymal plasma contain an inhibitory factor. Perhaps release from contact immobilization provides the stimulation for the initial acquisition of progressive motility by cauda epididymal sperm. We conclude that during epididymal passage sperm develop from a cell physically unresponsive to changes in cAMP concentration to a form which initiates progressive motility upon changes in cAMP concentration.

The effects of various sugars on the simultaneous release of insulin and accumulation of cyclic AMP were studied in collagenase isolated rat pancreatic islets. D-Glucose stimulated the formation of cyclic AMP at 3 and 60 min of incubation, whether measured by a label incorporation technique, or by the protein kinase binding assay of Gilman. Only D-glucose and D-mannose were able to stimulate insulin release and cyclic [3H]AMP accumulation in the absence of other substrate. D-fructose had a stimulatory effect in the presence of 3.3 mM D-glucose only at a high concentration (33.8 mM), and enhanced the effects of 8.3 mM glucose when added at the concentration of 8.3 mM. D-Galactose was effective only together with 8.3 mM D-glucose. The order of potency of these hexoses, both regarding insulin secretion and cyclic [3H]AMP accumulation, was glucose-mannose-fructose-galactose. L-Glucose and 3-O-methylglucose had no effects at 60 min when incubated together with 8.3 mM D-glucose, whereas at 3 min, 3-O-methylglucose induced a small stimulation of the cyclic [3H]AMP response. D-mannoheptulose and D-glucosamine inhibited the insulin and cyclic [3H]AMP responses to 27.7 mM glucose. Mannoheptulose suppressed completely the glucose effect on cyclic nucleotide accumulation within 90 s. Although under all incubation conditions, the threshold stimulatory or inhibitory concentration of a given agent was identical for insulin release and cyclic [3H]AMP accumulation, these two variables showed quantitative differences in incubations of 60 min, the magnitude of the changes in insulin secretion being larger than that for the cyclic nucleotide. It is suggested that modulation of islet cyclic AMP level is an important step in the transmission of the effect of various sugars on insulin release; however, glucose and possibly other sugars may also enhance insulin release by additional mechanisms not involving the adenylate cyclase-cyclic AMP system of the beta-cell.
