The reversible deactivation of chicken adipose tissue hormone-sensitive lipase alpha(previously activated with Mg2+ ATP and adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate) required Mg2+ and was inhibited by phosphate. These results are consistent with the assumption that deactivation of the protein kinase-activated enzyme is catalyzed by a lipase phosphatase. Cholesterol ester is catalyzed by a lipase phosphatase. Cholesterol ester hydrolase similarly was activated and reversibly deactivated. The activity of endogenous lipase phosphatase in pH 5.2 precipitate fractions was reduced, and in some cases eliminated, by incubation at 50 degrees for 20 min in buffer containing 20% glycerol. Heating at 50 degrees greatly increased the apparent percentage activation of triglyceride and cholesterol ester hydrolases but this was due to a selective decrease in basal (nonactivated) hydrolase activities. Essentially all endogenous lipase phosphatase could be removed by treatment of the pH 5.2 precipitate fraction with ATP-Sepharose affinity gel. The addition of a partially purified preparation of rat liver phosphorylase phosphatase deactivated triglyceride and cholesterol ester hydrolases. The deactivation process was concentration, 5 mM) and was inhibited by 5 mM phosphate and by phosphorylase alpha. Reversible deactivation of hormone-sensitive lipase alpha was also observed with crude prepa- and by phosphorylase alpha. Reversible deactivation of hormone-sensitive lipas alpha was also observed with crude preparations of phosphoprotein phosphatases from rat and turkey hearts, and from rat epididymal fat pads. Thus, hormone-sensitive lipase is deactivated by a variety of phosphoprotein phosphatases from different tissues and different species, implying a low degree of specificity for the deactivating system.

Three different types of protein kinases (ATP: protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37) were isolated and partially purified from a mouse plasmacytoma microsomal KCl wash fraction, then chromatographed on DEAE cellulose and phosphocellulose. The three protein kinase activities designated by protein kinase I, II and III were characterized with respect to their capacity to utilize [gamma-32P]ATP and [gamma-32P]GTP, to interact with cyclic AMP, stimulation by cyclic AMP, substrate specificity and sedimentation behaviour on glycerol gradient centrifugation. Protein kinase I was found to be cyclic AMP dependent and preferentially phosphorylated histones. Protein kinase II and III were insensitive to cyclic AMP, protein kinase II preferentially phosphorylated histones and the protein(s) of a ribosomal KCl wash fraction eluted from DEAE cellulose between 0.2 and 0.35 M KCl and termed "PPx". Protein kinase III phosphorylated casein and ribosomal proteins to a great extent. Studies with glycerol density gradient centrifugation indicated that protein kinase I sediments as a component of about 4.4 S, protein kinase II of 4.3 S and protein kinase III of 3 S. Chromatography on phosphocellulose of the protein kinases isolated from purified free polysomes showed the same type of protein kinases as those from microsomes. So it appears unlikely that protein kinase I and II were contaminants from the cytosol.

1. A simple purification procedure for microtubule proteins is described, which involves a single assembly step in vitro in the absence of glycerol, followed by centrifugation through sucrose. 2. The preparation contains 80% tubulin (mol.wt. 54000), 15-20% of a 280000-mol.wt. protein and several other minor components of intermediate molecular weight after polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulphate and 2-mercaptoethanol. 3. In the presence of [gamma-32P]ATP, [32P]phosphate was incorporated into the 280000-mol.wt. component reaching half-maximal incorporation at 1-2 min, but no phosphorylation of tubulin was detected. Cyclic AMP (Km 0.8 micrometer) increased both the initial rate and the extent of incorporation of [32P]phosphate into this component. 4. About half of the endogenous protein kinase activity did not require cyclic AMP and was not inhibited by a heat-stable inhibitor protein from muscle. The remainder of the activity was cyclic AMP-dependent and sensitive to the inhibitor protein. A regulatory subunit was not dissociable from microtubules assembled in vitro in the presence of saturating concentrations of cyclic AMP. 5. The endogenous substrate and the endogenous protein kinase activity could be partially resolved chromatography on phosphocellulose. 6. The data show that cyclic AMP can moduate the activity of an endogenous protein kinase(s) with unusual properties and which phosphorylates a prominent microtubule-associated protein.

Treatment of mouse L cells with homologous interferon results in the production of a protein which inhibits initiation factor activity. Characterization experiments indicate that the interferon in the preparation is responsible for the induction of an inhibitor protein. The impairment of initiation factor activity induced by interferon is specifically reversed by cAMP. An inhibitor protein may be separated from the initiation factor activity by glycerol density gradient sedimentation. The molecular weight of the inhibitor is about 50,000 dalton and sediments with protein kinase activity.

ACTH at levels as low as 0.05 mU/ml stimulated lipolysis, protein kinase and cyclic AMP accumulation in isolated fat cells from fed and fasted rats. Changes in cyclic AMP levels and in the protein kinase activity ratio were well correlated temporally. The protein kinase activity ratio was potentiated by adenosine deaminase. A sudden increase or decrease in either ACTH or dibutyryl cyclic AMP concentration was associated with a rapid and corresponding change in the rate of glycerol production. With ACTH, the changes in glycerol production were accompanied by appropriate changes in cyclic AMP levels. Actinomycin-D (10 UM) did not affect lipolysis or cyclic AMP accumulation activated by ACTH in fat cells.

A protein antigenically related to the simian virus (SV 40) A gene product has been purified to near homogeneity from cells infected with the adenovirus-SV 40 hybrid virus Ad2(+)D2 and shown to contain ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3) and protein kinase (ATP:phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37) activity. Both enzymatic activities copurify with the protein through six stages including one gel filtration column, two ion exchange columns, and a heparin affinity column. Analogous fractions from extracts of cells uninfected or infected with adenovirus 2 alone do not contain these enzymatic activities. The D2 hybrid protein resolves into two forms (I and II) during ion exchange chromatography. Form I, the major species (85%) of the D2 hybrid protein, elutes from DEAE-Sephadex in 0.37 M NaCl and is able to catalyze the hydrolysis of ATP to ADP + P(i) at a rate of 3 mumol/hr per mg. The remaining 10-15% of the D2 hybrid protein consists of form II which elutes from DEAE-Sephadex in 0.29 M NaCl and is able to hydrolyze ATP as well as to incorporate phosphorus from ATP into either the D2 hybrid protein itself or other protein acceptors such as phosvitin. Although both forms are able to bind DNA, the ATPase activity of form I cosediments with SV 40 DNA more efficiently than does the protein kinase activity of form II during glycerol gradient centrifugation. The ATPase activity of form I is efficiently inhibited by addition of anti-T gamma globulin to the reaction mixture whereas control gamma globulin has no effect. Similarly, the phosphorylation of the D2 hybrid protein by form II is inhibited by anti-T gamma globulin. By contrast, phosphorylation of phosvitin is specifically inhibited by antibody only when the immune complex is removed from the reaction mixture. Thus, it appears likely that one and possibly two enzymatic activities are carried out by the D2 hybrid protein. These findings are discussed in terms of mechanisms of SV 40 DNA replication and virally induced transformation.

The effects of noradrenaline (NA) and isopropyl-noradrenaline (ISNA) on glycerol release and cAMP levels in sc adipose tissue were studied in vitro in 27 patients with hyperthyroidism. In 11 patients, the studies were repeated after 6--12 months of treatment for hyperthyroidism. A third group comprised 21 euthyroid patients otherwise healthy except for morbid obesity. The lipolytic response to ISNA, observed in untreated thyrotoxic patients, was found to be reduced by 30% when the patients were reexamined after treatment for thyrotoxicosis. This reduction was attributable to a decrease in the cAMP level. This was observed whether adipose tissue was incubated in the presence or absence of a phosphodiesterase inhibitor, theophylline. Both NA and ISNA induced 50% more rapid glycerol release and 4 times higher cAMP levels in adipose tissue of the thyrotoxic subjects than in the obese euthyroid patients. A positive correlation between tissue cAMP and glycerol release, on one hand, and mean fat cell size, on the other hand, was observed in treated thyrotoxic patients and obese euthyroid patients but was not recorded in the untreated hyperthyroid patients. The basal rate of lipolysis was not altered in thyrotoxicosis. The results suggest that the enhanced lipolytic response to catecholamines in adipose tissue of hyperthyroid patients is due to increased beta-adrenergic responsiveness. In addition, a disruption in subsequent stages of the regulatory pathway at the level of protein kinase or hormone-sensitive lipase also seems possible.

A cyclic AMP-independent casein (phosvitin) kinase eluted from a phosphocellulose column with 0.35 M KCl also possesses glycogen synthase kinase activity. This kinase, designated synthase kinase 1, is separable from other cyclic AMP-independent protein kinases, which also contain glycogen synthase kinase activity, by chromatography on a phosphocellulose column. This kinase was purified 15,000-fold from the crude extract. Synthase kinase activity co-purifies with casein and phosvitin kinase activities. Heat inactivation of these three kinase activities follow similar kinetics. It is suggested that these three kinase activities reside in a single protein. This kinase has a molecular weight of approximately 34,000 as determined by glycerol density gradient centrifugation and by gel filtration. The Km values for the synthase kinase-catalyzed reaction are 0.12 mg/ml (0.35 micronM) for synthase, 12 micronM for ATP, and 0.15 mM for Mg2+. The phosphorylation of glycogen synthase by the kinase results in the incorporation of 4 mol of phosphate/85,000 subunit; however, only two of the phosphate sites predominantly determine the glucose-6-P dependency of the synthase. Synthase kinase activity is sensitive to inhibition by NaCl or KCl at concentrations encountered during purification. Synthase kinase activity is insensitive to the allosteric effector (glucose-6-P) or substrate (UDP-glucose) of glycogen synthase at concentrations usually found under physiological condition.

During heme deficiency in reticulocyte lysates, a translational inhibitor (heme-regulated inhibitor, HRI) that blocks polypeptide chain initiation is activated. HRI is a protein kinase that specifically phosphorylates the 38,000-dalton subunit of the Met-tRNAfMet binding factor, eIF-2. Phosphorylation of eIF-2 by HRI prevents its interaction with at least two additional factors, resulting in a net reduction in formation of ternary complex (Met-tRNAfMet.eIF-2.GTP) and AUG-dependent transfer of Met-tRNAfMet to 40S ribosomal subunits. A factor (sRF) that reverses protein synthesis inhibition in heme-deficient lysates has been purified from reticulocyte postribosomal supernatant. sRF also reverses the inhibition of ternary complex formation by HRI in a fractionated system. The ternary complex inhibition reversal activity and the protein synthesis inhibition reversal activity cosediment at 12.5 S upon glycerol density gradient centrifugation, and both activities are sensitive to heat or N-ethylmaleimide. Purified sRF does not dephosphorylate eIF-2 whose phosphorylation has been catalyzed by HRI, nor does the sRF prevent the phosphorylation of eIF-2 by HRI in a fractionated system. sRF stimulates ternary complex formation by both phosphorylated and nonphosphorylated eIF-2. These observations suggest that the sensitivity of protein synthesis to phosphorylation of eIF-2 by HRI may be modulated by the concentration and activity of sRF.

The effects of vasopressin and some of its inhibitors on the extent of MT polymerization (assembly) were studied in renal medullary slices by means of temperature-dependent polymerization-depolymerization procedure to determine the relative ratio of free (unpolymerized) tubulin to assembled MT's. Assembled MT's were stabilized in a medium containing high concentrations of glycerol and DMSO. Tubulin was assessed indirectly by the [3H]-CLC-binding assay. Incubation of slices at temperatures higher than 20 degree C promoted MT polymerization. Although vasopressin markedly increased the tissue levels of cAMP and activated in situ cAMP-dependent protein kinase, it did not change the extent of MT polymerization. On the other hand, VBL and to a lesser degree lithium chloride inhibited the rate of MT assembly. This finding suggests that VBL and lithium, which are known to inhibit the antidiuretic effect of vasopressin in vivo, may exert at least part of their inhibitory effect by interfering with MT assembly in the renal medulla. Present results thus are consistent with the view that vasopressin does not influence the extent of cytoplasmic MT polymerization in spite of the increase in tissue cAMP level and activation of protein kinase but that inact MT's are required for the cellular action of vasopressin.
