Insulin receptor was co-purified from human placenta together with insulin-stimulated kinase activity that phosphorylates the insulin receptor on serine residues. By using this 'in vitro' system, the mechanism of activation of the serine kinase by insulin was explored. Peptide 1150, histone, poly(Glu-Tyr), eliminating Mn2+ (Mg2+ only), treatment at 37 degrees C (1 h), N-ethylmaleimide, phosphate, beta-glycerol phosphate and anti-phosphotyrosine antibody all inhibited insulin-receptor tyrosine kinase activity and the ability of insulin to stimulate phosphorylation of the insulin receptor on serine. Additionally, direct stimulation of the receptor tyrosine kinase by vanadate increased serine phosphorylation of the insulin receptor. Insulin-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation preceded insulin-stimulated serine phosphorylation of the insulin receptor. The activity of the insulin-sensitive receptor serine kinase was not augmented by cyclic AMP, cyclic GMP, Ca2+, Ca2+ + calmodulin, Ca2+ + phosphatidylserine + diolein or spermine, or inhibited appreciably by heparin. Additionally, the serine kinase phosphorylated casein or phosvitin poorly and was active with Mn2+. This indicates that it is distinct from Ca2+, Ca2+/phospholipid, Ca2+/calmodulin, cyclic AMP- and cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinases, casein kinases I and II and insulin-activated ribosomal S6 kinase. Taken together, these data indicate that a novel species of serine kinase catalyses the insulin-dependent phosphorylation of the insulin receptor and that activation of this receptor serine kinase by insulin requires an active insulin-receptor tyrosine kinase.

We designed a simple procedure for the purification of Ca2+-activated, phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase C) from rabbit brain, using affinity chromatography with a new affinity adsorbent. The adsorbent was synthesized by attaching the amino residue of N-(2-aminoethyl)-5-isoquinolinesulfonamide (H-9) to cyanogen bromide-activated Sepharose. H-9 is a potent competitive inhibitor of protein kinase C, cGMP-, and cAMP-dependent protein kinase with respect to ATP and exhibits inhibition constants of 18, 0.87, and 1.9 microM, respectively (Hidaka, H., Inagaki, M., Kawamoto, S., and Sasaki, Y. (1984) Biochemistry, 23, 5036). A 960-fold purification was achieved in the two-step procedure, which entailed DEAE-cellulose and the affinity chromatography. The resultant preparation was essentially homogeneous, as indicated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis under conditions of denaturation with sodium dodecyl sulfate. The affinity of protein kinase C for the H-9-Sepharose was high, and the enzyme could not be eluted either by a high concentration of sodium chloride or by 40% glycerol. The protein kinase C could be eluted from H-9-Sepharose by the buffer containing both 0.2 M NaCl and 20% glycerol, thereby suggesting that the binding between protein kinase C and H-9-Sepharose was due to both hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions. H-9 coupled to Sepharose retained both cyclic nucleotide-dependent protein kinases and protein kinase C, and these enzymes could be eluted separately by the buffer containing L-arginine, a potent inhibitor of these three kinases. The novel aspects of these three multifunctional protein kinases can thus be investigated using isoquinolinesulfonamide derivatives.

A method is described for the separate determination of cAMP intracellularly bound to the regulatory moieties (RI and RII) of protein kinase I and II. The cAMP endogenously bound to RI or RII in hepatocyte extract was adsorbed to protein A-agarose beads coated with antibodies against RI or RII. The endogenously bound cAMP was eluted from the washed beads with dilute acetic acid before being assayed. By all criteria tested, the present method did not perturb the intracellularly established equilibrium between bound and free cAMP. Stabilization of R X cAMP complexes was achieved by including sulfate in the extraction medium and sulfate/glycerol during the subsequent steps. Hepatocytes were isolated from fed male rats and contained about 0.25 pmol of RI and 0.2 pmol of RII per 10(5) cells. An intracellular titration of the cAMP binding sites of RI and RII was achieved by incubating the cells with various concentrations (1 pM to 10 nM) of glucagon. The fractional saturation of RI and RII was always similar, being 20% in nonstimulated cells. 50% saturation occurred when free cAMP was 0.46 pmol/10(5) cells. A Scatchard plot of the data for the endogenous cAMP binding suggested that cAMP interacted with RI and RII in a slightly positively cooperative manner. About 5% of the intracellularly bound cAMP was sedimentable at 10,000 X g. The apparent affinity of these particulate-associated binding sites was similar to that of soluble RI and RII. Under the conditions used no evidence was obtained for cAMP binding to other proteins than RI and RII.

Using the flask-incubated fat cell system, effects of isoproterenol and forskolin on glycerol release, cyclic AMP levels and protein kinase were studied. Isoproterenol increased cyclic AMP levels, protein kinase activity and glycerol release over the same concentration range (10(-9) M to 10(-6) M). Forskolin also increased all three variables in a concentration-dependent manner (10(-7) M to 10(-4) M). The maximum response for each variable was significantly greater with forskolin than with isoproterenol. A combination of isoproterenol and forskolin resulted in an additional increase in cyclic AMP over forskolin alone, but no significant increase in protein kinase activity or glycerol release. These results support the concepts that the maximum lipolytic response to isoproterenol is limited by the accumulation of cyclic AMP and the maximum lipolytic response to forskolin is limited by some step distal to cyclic AMP production, possibly activation of protein kinase. At high concentrations of forskolin or with a combination of forskolin and isoproterenol, cyclic AMP levels were in excess of those needed to maximally activate protein kinase and lipolysis.

Experiments performed at micromolar concentrations of inorganic phosphate support the conclusion that liver phosphofructokinase 2 would be completely inactive in the absence of inorganic phosphate or arsenate. The concentration of inorganic phosphate that allowed half-maximal activity decreased with increasing pH, being approximately 0.11 mM at pH 6.5 and 0.05 mM at pH 8. The effect of phosphate was to increase V and to decrease Km for fructose 6-phosphate, without affecting Km for ATP. Citrate and P-enolpyruvate inhibited the enzyme non-competitively with fructose 6-phosphate and independently of the concentration of inorganic phosphate. Phosphorylation of the enzyme by the catalytic subunit of cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase did not markedly modify the phosphate requirement and its effect of inactivating phosphofructokinase 2 could not be counteracted by excess phosphate. A nearly complete phosphate dependency was also observed with phosphofructokinase 2 purified from Saccharomyces cerevisiae or from spinach leaves. By contrast, the fructose 2,6-bisphosphatase activity of the liver bifunctional enzyme was not dependent on the presence of inorganic phosphate. Phosphate increased this activity about threefold when measured in the absence of added fructose 6-phosphate and a half-maximal effect was reached at approximately 0.5 mM phosphate. Like glycerol phosphate, phosphate counteracted the inhibition of fructose 2,6-bisphosphatase by fructose 6-phosphate, but a much higher concentration of phosphate than of glycerol phosphate was required to reach this effect.

The breaking of dormancy of Phycomyces blakesleeanus spores by a heat shock was followed by a transient production of glycerol, which culminated within 5-10 min and was terminated at 20 min. Extracts of spores contained a magnesium-dependent glycerol-3-phosphatase active on both L-glycerol 3-phosphate and dihydroxyacetone phosphate but having more affinity for the first substrate than for the second. In extracts from dormant spores, the phosphatase was profoundly inhibited by physiological concentrations of inorganic phosphate, which induced cooperativity for the substrate, whereas the enzyme from heat-activated spores was much less inhibited and this difference in kinetic properties persisted after gel filtration of the enzymic preparation. When measured at 1 mM phosphate and 0.1 mM glycerol 3-phosphate, the phosphatase activity was undetectable in dormant spores, increased sharply during the heat treatment and the following 5 min at 25 degrees C, then fell again to a low value by 20 min. A similar transient activation of the enzyme was observed following the breaking of dormancy by incubation of the spores in the presence of 0.1 M ammonium acetate. Incubation of a cell-free extract or of the partially purified glycerol-3-phosphatase in the presence of ATP-Mg and the catalytic subunit of cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase released the enzyme from inhibition by phosphate and endowed it with the same kinetic properties as did the heat treatment of the spores. It appears therefore most likely that phosphorylation of glycerol-3-phosphatase by cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase causes its activation and that this transient process explains the equally transient formation of glycerol by the spores after the heat shock.

When guinea pig lymphocytes were cultured with 1-oleoyl-2-acetyl-glycerol (OAG), A23187, and cholera toxin, ornithine decarboxylase activity was induced synergistically, peaking at 6 h. Addition of 12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol 13-acetate (TPA), A23187, and dibutyryl cAMP caused the same kind of induction. Cholera toxin potentiated the ability of A23187 to induce ornithine decarboxylase, but not that of OAG. Dibutyryl cAMP augmented the induction caused by A23187 but not by TPA. These results suggest that both the activation of Ca++-sensitive, phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase C) and the increase in intracellular levels of Ca++ and cAMP are necessary for this induction. cAMP may potentiate the induction by modulating a Ca++ messenger system other than that for protein kinase C activation.

The purpose of this study is to clarify the involvement of protein kinase C in pulmonary surfactant secretion from adult rat alveolar type II cells in primary culture. Surfactant secretion in vitro is stimulated by at least two classes of compounds. One class, (e.g. terbutaline) increases intracellular cyclic AMP, whereas the other class (e.g. 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA] does not. TPA has been shown to activate protein kinase C in other cell systems. In our studies, 1-oleoyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycerol (OAG), which is a direct activator of protein kinase C, stimulated [3H] phosphatidylcholine secretion by alveolar type II cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Tetracaine, which is an inhibitor of protein kinase C, inhibited the TPA-induced secretion of [3H]phosphatidylcholine from alveolar type II cells in a dose-dependent manner. However, tetracaine had no effect on terbutaline-induced secretion. The effects of terbutaline and OAG upon surfactant secretion were significantly more than additive, but those of TPA and OAG were less than additive. The specific activity of protein kinase C was 6-fold higher than cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase found in type II cells when both kinases were assayed using lysine-rich histone as a common phosphate acceptor. Ninety-four per cent of protein kinase C activity was recovered in the cytosolic fraction of unstimulated type II cells, and 40% of activity in cytosolic fraction was translocated to particulate fraction upon treatment with TPA. As observed in other tissues, protein kinase C of alveolar type II cells was highly activated by 1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycerol or TPA in the presence of Ca2+ and phosphatidylserine. These results suggest that pulmonary surfactant secretion in vitro is stimulated by both protein kinase C and cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase.

Addition of the commonly used anesthetic pentobarbital to hepatocytes from fed rats resulted in a dose-dependent decrease in the level of fructose 2,6-bisphosphate. At a concentration of pentobarbital (0.4 mM) that lowered fructose 2,6-bisphosphate by 60%, there was no significant change in the level of fructose 6-phosphate, ATP, or L-glycerol 3-phosphate. Higher concentrations of pentobarbital (2 mM) enhanced both glycolysis and glycogenolysis and fructose 2,6-bisphosphate levels were reduced to less than 10% of the control. Concomitant with these changes there was a decrease in ATP, glucose 6-phosphate, and fructose 6-phosphate and a two- and fivefold increase in ADP and AMP, respectively. In hepatocytes from starved rats pentobarbital also lowered ATP levels and inhibited gluconeogenesis but had no effect on either lactate production or the already low level of sugar diphosphate. However, in the fasted case pentobarbital completely prevented the 10-fold elevation of fructose 2,6-bisphosphate brought about by 30 mM glucose. The anesthetic had no effect on cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity or on pyruvate kinase activity in hepatocytes from fed or starved rats but caused reciprocal changes in the activities of the bifunctional enzyme 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose 2,6-bisphosphatase. Kinase activity was decreased and bisphosphatase activity was increased. These results suggest that the effects of pentobarbital on gluconeogenesis and glycolysis are due to inhibition of energy metabolism with elevated AMP levels causing activation of 6-phosphofructo-1-kinase and inhibition of fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Although insulin effectively blocked hormone-stimulated glycerol output in adipocytes or phosphorylase activation in hepatocytes, the inhibitory effect of insulin on cAMP analog-stimulated cells depended on the cAMP analog used. Of the 20 analogs tested in adipocytes and 13 tested in hepatocytes, the effects of about half of them were effectively blocked by insulin, whereas the effects of many of them were not inhibited at all. In order to approach the explanation for this discriminative insulin action, the inhibitory effects of insulin on the responses to the analogs in the intact cells were correlated with the in vitro cAMP analog specificity for the hepatocyte cAMP-dependent protein kinase isozymes and the low Km, hormone-sensitive phosphodiesterases from both cell types. No correlation was found between insulin resistance of analog-stimulated hepatocyte phosphorylase and the concentration of analog required in vitro for half-maximal activation of either type I or type II cAMP-dependent protein kinase from hepatocytes. However, a good correlation was found between insulin resistance of cAMP analog-stimulated responses and the analog I50 values for the phosphodiesterase from both cell types. Using a new method capable of measuring hydrolysis at low analog concentrations, several of those analogs which had relatively low, but not high, phosphodiesterase I50 values were shown to be directly hydrolyzed by the low Km adipocyte phosphodiesterase. The insulin inhibition of cell responses when stimulated by hydrolyzable analogs, but not by poorly hydrolyzable analogs, is best explained by insulin stimulation of the low Km phosphodiesterases from both cell types.
