Sodium-phosphate cotransport in the PTH-responsive opossum kidney (OK) cell line is inhibited by PTH, cAMP, and activators of protein kinase C. In order to probe the role of cAMP, we stably transfected OK cells with an expression vector for a cAMP-binding mutation of the murine protein kinase A regulatory subunit. Two-dimensional electrophoresis of cAMP-binding proteins from transfected cells indicated a 20-fold overexpression of the mutant regulatory unit. Protein kinase A from these cells had a 20-fold increase in the concentration of cAMP required for half-maximal activation, 2.8 microM vs. 0.15 microM for wild type cells. In the transfected cells, Na-phosphate cotransport was insensitive to up to 1 mM 8-Br-cAMP and 1 microM PTH, while these same agonists caused a significant inhibition of transport in the wild type cells. The effects on Na-phosphate cotransport of the protein kinase C activators oleoyl-acetyl glycerol and tetradecanoyl-phorbol acetate, which were marked in the wild type cells, were still present, although attenuated, in the transfected mutants. With prolonged passage, the cAMP-insensitive phenotype reverted to wild type cAMP sensitivity despite continued selection for the cotransfected neo marker. The revertant cells had a normal cAMP requirement for half-maximal activation of protein kinase A, 0.13 microM, and the PTH and cAMP-sensitive inhibition of Na-phosphate cotransport was restored. We suggest that an intact and normally cAMP-sensitive protein kinase A pathway is an absolute requirement for PTH inhibition of Na-phosphate cotransport in the OK cell.

Although calcium-activated, phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase C) has been implicated in the regulation of various steroidogenic pathways, comparatively little is known of its role in the metabolism of vitamin D. The present study was undertaken to determine whether protein kinase C is involved in the regulation of renal mitochondrial 25-hydroxyvitamin D3-24-hydroxylase (24-hydroxylase), the first enzyme in the C-24 oxidation pathway, a major catabolic pathway for vitamin D metabolites in kidney and other target tissues. We examined the effect of phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), a potent activator of protein kinase C, on 24-hydroxylase activity in fresh mouse renal tubules and correlated the changes in 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [24,25-(OH)2D3] production with translocation of protein kinase C and phosphorylation of mitochondrial proteins. PMA stimulated 24,25-(OH)2D3 synthesis, protein kinase C translocation from the cytosolic to the mitochondrial fraction, and phosphorylation of 30-35 K, 40 K, and 50 K mitochondrial proteins derived from 32P-labeled tubules. 4 alpha-Phorbol 12,13 didecanoate, an insert analog of PMA, did not elicit any of these effects. The synthetic diacylglycerol, oleoylacetyl glycerol, also stimulated 24,25-(OH)2D3 synthesis, whereas the protein kinase C inhibitors, H-7 and staurosporine, inhibited 24-hydroxylase activity. PMA did not further stimulate 24,25-(OH)2D3 production in tubules derived from mutant (Hyp) mice in which 24-hydroxylase and protein kinase C activities are elevated relative to normal. However, after treatment with H-7, 24-hydroxylase activity was reduced in both strains, and genotype differences were no longer apparent. Finally, H-7 failed to inhibit the induced renal 24-hydroxylase in tubules isolated from 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3-treated mice. These findings suggest a role for protein kinase C in the regulation of constitutive renal 24-hydroxylase and implicate the kinase in the aberrant expression of the hydroxylase in the Hyp mouse.

Various agents were tested for their effects on microbial proteases, which activity was monitored by the analysis of cleaved peptide bands in SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Using casein as a substrate, fungal protease (type XIX) was inhibited by the phenyl methyl sulphonyl fluoride, chymostatin, antipain and leupeptin, while bacterial protease (type XXVI) was inhibited by phosphatidyl glycerol, phosphatidyl inositol and sphingosine. MS2 RNA exerted minor inhibition on the bacterial proteolysis of regulatory subunits of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (A-PK). The cleavage of DNA binding protein by both proteases was inhibited, in the presence of MS2 RNA and lambda DNA. In comparison, phosphatidyl serine slightly stimulated the fungal protease on the cleavage of ribonuclease T1. RNA polymerase is a good substrate of the bacterial protease as indicated by the generation of multiple cleaved peptide fragments, whereas alkaline phosphatase is not susceptible to proteolysis.

We have previously found and characterized a mitogen-activated, serine/threonine-specific protein kinase that specifically phosphorylates microtubule-associated protein 2 (MAP2) in vitro, which we call here MAP2 kinase [Hoshi, M., Nishida, E. & Sakai, H. (1988) J. Biol. Chem. 263, 5396-5401; Hoshi, M., Nishida, E. & Sakai, H. (1989) Eur. J. Biochem. 184, 477-486]. In this study, we have found another serine/threonine-specific protein kinase that is activated by various mitogens. The activated kinase utilized microtubule-associated protein 1B (MAP1B) as the major substrate in vitro, so we tentatively call it MAP1B kinase (M1BK). M1BK was maximally activated 20-30 min after treatment of quiescent rat fibroblastic 3Y1 cells with epidermal growth factor (EGF), while MAP2 kinase was maximally activated within 5-10 min of EGF treatment. The EGF-activated M1BK was eluted at about 0.15 M NaCl on a DEAE-cellulose column, while the activated MAP2 kinase was eluted at about 0.1 M NaCl under the conditions used. The EGF-activated M1BK was eluted as a single peak just after the activated MAP2 kinase on an HPLC gel-filtration column. Histone, casein and ribosomal protein S6 were very poor substrates for the M1BK, while MAP2 and myelin basic protein were moderate substrates. The M1BK activity in cell extracts was inhibited by Ca2+, glycerol 2-phosphate and Zn2+, and slightly enhanced by heparin. These data suggested that M1BK is distinct from previously described mitogen-activated kinases such as MAP2 kinase, casein kinase II and S6 kinase. Pretreatment with cycloheximide or puromycin did not block the M1BK activation by EGF. Furthermore, incubation of the EGF-activated M1BK with acid phosphatase inactivated the kinase activity. Therefore, M1BK may be activated by phosphorylation in EGF-treated cells. In addition to EGF, 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate, platelet-derived growth factor and insulin-like growth factor-I also induced the activation of M1BK in quiescent cells.

Dopamine causes a significant retraction of neurites of bull-head catfish horizontal cells maintained in culture. The effects of dopamine are blocked by haloperidol and SCH 23390, a D1 antagonist, but not by sulpiride, a D2 antagonist. The dopamine-induced morphological changes were mimicked by SKF 38393, a D1 agonist, but not by quinpirole, a D2 agonist. Kainate also caused process retraction, but other neuroactive substances tested including glutamate, 5-hydroxytryptamine, N-methyl-D-aspartate, gamma-aminobutyric acid, and glycine caused only minor changes in neurite length. Cyclic AMP analogues do not induce neurite retraction in horizontal cells, indicating that this effect of dopamine is not mediated by cyclic AMP. However, a protein kinase C activator (phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate) and synthetic diacylglycerol analogs (1-oleoyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycerol and dioctanoglycerol) caused marked neurite retraction. Their effects, as well as the dopamine-induced changes, were blocked by staurosporine, a potent protein kinase antagonist. The results suggest that dopamine causes neurite retraction by the activation of protein kinase C via diacylglycerol.

In our previous report we showed cytochrome b5 to be a competitive inhibitor of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) for interaction with cytochrome P450 (P450). While P450 was phosphorylated, cytochrome b5 was not. The phosphorylation of P450 resulted in an inhibition of its catalytic activity. In this report we attempt to determine the relationship between phosphorylation of P450 from phenobarbital-induced rat and its destruction. The results indicate there is a considerable alteration of P450 IIB1 when it is put into the phosphorylation medium. This includes destruction, i.e., loss of the hemoprotein nature (Soret peak), as well as denaturation, conversion of a proportion of the P450 to P420. The extent of phosphorylation correlated best with the amount of destroyed hemoprotein, and not with the formation of P420. There did not appear to be phosphorylation-dependent formation of apo-P450. Further, prior conversion of the P450 to P420 using sodium deoxycholate showed the same extent of phosphorylation as before the conversion. Thus, intact P450 is not required for phosphorylation nor is phosphorylation a prerequisite for hemoprotein destruction. P450 CAM (CIA1), which has the PKA substrate recognition sequence internalized, likewise undergoes conversion to P420 but this denaturation does not result in phosphorylation. Destruction of CIA1 with 6 M urea, however, did permit phosphorylation by PKA. P450 IIB1 destruction was greatly diminished by cytochrome b5. This stabilization resulted in a decreased degree of phosphorylation as well as an increase in negative ellipticity in circular dichroism, indicative of an increase in the proportion of alpha-helical content in the P450. Suggestions are made that this structural modification caused by cytochrome b5 stabilizes the P450 against denaturation as well as against destruction and phosphorylation. Further, when the P450 IIB1 was kept stable as P450 in the absence of cytochrome b5 and without loss of hemoprotein during the incubation period, using phosphate-glycerol buffer containing 0.4% Emulgen 911, the phosphorylation of the P450 was greatly diminished, with only minor effects on the protein kinase reaction itself. These results suggest that the protein kinase reaction itself. These results suggest that the protein kinase substrate recognition sequence is not readily accessible to PKA in mammalian P450 IIB1 but requires a destabilization of the protein for phosphorylation to take place.

A meiosis-activated myelin basic protein (MBP) kinase was purified approximately 8700-fold from soluble post-germinal vesicle breakdown extracts from maturing oocytes of the sea star Pisaster ochraceus. Purification to apparent homogeneity was achieved by sequential chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, hydroxylapatite, phosphocellulose, phenyl-Sepharose, heparin-Sepharose, polylysine-Sepharose, and Mono-Q. The final product exhibited an apparent molecular mass of approximately 42 kDa by both native gradient and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and this precisely correlated with the chromatographic behavior of the recovered MBP kinase activity on a Superose 6/12 column. The kinase utilized the MBP as the major substrate with little or no phosphorylation of histones (H1, H2A, or H2B), casein, phosvitin, protamine, or 40 S ribosomal proteins. The purified enzyme was relatively insensitive to high concentrations of beta-glycerol phosphate, calmodulin, EGTA, NaCl, sodium fluoride, dithiothreitol, spermine, and heparin but was quite sensitive to inhibition by metal ions such as Mn2+, Zn2+, and Ca2+. The true Km values for ATP and myelin basic protein were determined to be 58 and 25 microM, respectively, using double-reciprocal plots. The purified enzyme was unable to utilize GTP in place of ATP. The enzyme was shown to rapidly undergo autophosphorylation. The autophosphorylation was sensitive to alkali treatment implying that phosphate was incorporated on serine/threonine residues. The properties of this MBP kinase are reminiscent of a protein kinase that is also activated in a cyclic fashion at M-phase during the early cell divisions of sea star and sea urchin embryos (Pelech, S. L., Tombe, R., Meijer, L., and Krebs, E. G. (1988) Dev. Biol. 130, 26-36).

Interactions of types I, II, and III protein kinase C (PKC) with phospholipids were investigated by following the changes in protein kinase activity and phorbol ester binding. The acidic phospholipids such as phosphatidylserine (PS), phosphatidic acid, phosphatidyl-glycerol, and cardiolipin, which are activators of PKC in the assay of protein phosphorylation, could differentially inactivate PKC I, II, and III during preincubation in the absence of divalent cation. The phospholipid-induced inactivation of PKC was concentration and time dependent and only affected the kinase activity without influencing phorbol ester binding. PKC I was the most susceptible to the phospholipid-induced inactivation, and PKC III was the least. The IC50 values of PS for PKC I, II, and III were 5, 45, and greater than 120 microM, respectively. Addition of divalent cation such as Ca2+ or Mg2+ suppressed the phospholipid-induced inactivation of PKC. In the absence of divalent cation, PKC I, II, and III all formed complexes with PS vesicles, although to a slightly different degree, as analyzed by molecule sieve chromatography. [3H]Phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate binding for PKC I, II, and III was recovered after chromatography; however, the kinase activities of all these enzymes were greatly reduced. In the presence of Ca2+, all three PKCs formed complexes with PS vesicles, and both the kinase and phorbol ester-binding activities of PKC II and III were recovered following chromatography. Under the same conditions, the phorbol ester-binding activity of PKC I was also recovered, but the kinase activity was not. The phospholipid-induced inactivation of PKC apparently results from a direct interaction of phospholipid with the catalytic domain of PKC; this interaction can be suppressed by divalent cations. In the presence of divalent cations, PS interacted preferentially with the regulatory domain of PKC and resulted in the activation of the kinase.

Partially reduced oxygen species are toxic, yet activated sea urchin eggs produce H2O2, suggesting that the control of oxidant stress might be critical for early embryonic development. We show that the Ca2(+)-stimulated NADPH oxidase that generates H2O2 in the "respiratory burst" of fertilization is activated by a protein kinase, apparently to regulate the synthesis of this potentially lethal oxidant. The NADPH oxidase was separated into membrane and soluble fractions that were both required for H2O2 synthesis. The soluble fraction was further purified by anion exchange chromatography. The factor in the soluble fraction that activated the membrane-associated oxidase was demonstrated to be protein kinase C (PKC) by several criteria, including its Ca2+/phophatidylserine/diacyl-glycerol-stimulated histone kinase activity, its response to phorbol ester, its inhibition by a PKC pseudosubstrate peptide, and its replacement by purified mammalian PKC. Neither calmodulin-dependent kinase II, the catalytic subunit of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, casein kinase II, nor myosin light chain kinase activated the oxidase. Although the PKC family has been ubiquitously implicated in cellular regulation, enzymes that require PKC for activation have not been identified; the respiratory burst oxidase is one such enzyme.

We used rat proximal tubule fragments purified by Percoll centrifugation to examine the role of diacylglycerol (DAG) in noradrenergic-stimulated Na+ reabsorption. Tubular DAG concentration and ouabain-inhibitable 86Rb uptake increased within 30 s after adding norepinephrine (NE) and remained elevated for at least 5 min. NE (1 microM) increased DAG content 17% and ouabain-inhibitable 86Rb uptake 23%. Cirazoline-stimulated 86Rb uptake was not inhibited by BaCl, quinidine, or bumetanide (1-10 microM) or by the omission of HCO3- or Cl- from the medium, but it was completely inhibited by ouabain and furosemide. Oleoyl-acetyl glycerol, L-alpha-1,2-dioctanoylglycerol, and L-alpha-1,2-dioleoylglycerol (DOG) increased total 86Rb uptake 8-11%. 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) (5 nM) increased uptake by only 4%. Staurosporine at 5 nM inhibited DOG stimulation completely, whereas 50 nM staurosporine was required to inhibit NE stimulation completely. Sphingosine inhibited DOG stimulation by 66% but did not inhibit NE stimulation. Amiloride (1 mM) completely blocked DOG stimulation. Monensin increased 86Rb uptake 31% and completely blocked the DOG effect but reduced the NE effect by only 26% (P = 0.08). In tubules from salt-loaded rats, NE did not increase DAG concentration, but NE-stimulated 86Rb uptake was reduced by only 23% (P = 0.15). Thus DAG released by NE may stimulate Na+ entry through Na(+)-H+ exchange. NE predominantly stimulates Na(+)-K(+)-adenosinetriphosphatase (ATPase) by activating a protein kinase that is insensitive to DAG and TPA and is inhibited by staurosporine but not by sphingosine. NE may also stimulate K+ efflux through a BaCl-insensitive K+ channel that is inhibited by millimolar furosemide.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
