The presence of activators(AMP and sulphate) or inhibitors(acetyl-CoA) has no influence on the Hill coefficient of the S-shaped [pyruvate]--velocity curve of either the pyruvate-NAD+ overall reaction(h equals 2.5) or that of the pyruvate-K3Fe(CN)6 ACTIVITY OF THE FIRST ENZYME (H EQUALs 1.3). pH STUDIES INDICATED THAT THE Hill coefficient is dependent on subunit ionization within the pyruvate-containing complex and not on those in the free complex. It is concluded that pyruvate conversion rather that pyruvate binding is responsible for the allosteric pattern. The activity is due to absence of a
protein kinase
, mainly regulated at the acetyl-CoA/CoA, and
NADH
/NAD+ levels and by the value of the energy charge.

A physiologically and biochemically realistic model of the regulation of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDH) was constructed for the perfused rat heart. It includes conversion between inactive (phospho) and active (dephospho) forms by a specific
protein kinase
(PDHK) and phosphoprotein phosphatase (PDHP). The activity of the tightly bound PDHK is influenced by synergistic activation/inhibition by acetyl CoA/CoASH and
NADH
/NAD. PDHK in this simulation was more sensitive to the fraction of ADP that was Mg2+-chelated than to the ATP-to-ADP ratio. Ca2+ stimulates binding of Mg2+-dependent PDHP to the complex; the bound enzyme was considered to be the active species. The fraction of PDH in the active form, rather than substrate and inhibitor levels, determines PDH activity under these conditions. This fraction depends on the present value and recent history of the difference between PDHK and PDHP activities. Both of these are active continuously and continuously control PDH.

The light-activated protein kinase C inhibitor, calphostin C, is shown to inhibit the ability of IL-3-dependent 32D cells to reduce the tetrazolium salt, MTT. To determine whether this inhibition was mediated through mitochondria which have been implicated in MTT reduction, isolated mitochondria were treated with calphostin C in the presence of various substrates for mitochondrial electron transport and EDTA (to exclude PKC involvement). Calphostin C extensively inhibited succinate-dependent MTT reduction (IC50 = 110nM) but had little effect on either
NADH
- or NADPH-dependent MTT reduction. An alternative protein kinase C inhibitor, H7, did not affect succinate-dependent mitochondrial MTT reduction, and the
protein kinase A
inhibitor, KT5720, had little effect on either cellular or mitochondrial MTT reduction. These results show that in addition to its role as a PKC inhibitor, calphostin C is also a potent inhibitor of succinate-dependent mitochondrial electron transport.

An underinvestigated aspect of the mitogenic and cell regulatory actions of vanadium is the regulation of gene expression. Among the fifteen cellular genes studied in cultured mouse C127 cells, vanadium (as 10 microM sodium vanadate) increased levels of mRNA of the actin and c-Ha-ras to four times control values. These increases represented de novo synthesis of mRNA, since they were inhibited by actinomycin D. Vanadate did not increase mRNA corresponding to c-src, c-mos, c-myc, p53, HSP70, pODC or RB genes, and expression of c-erb A, c-erb B, c-sis and c-fes genes was undetectable whether vanadium was present or not. Expression of a third gene affected by vanadium, c-jun, was augmented by addition of a reductant or oxidant together with the vanadate. Addition of
NADH
(marginally effective on its own) or H2O2 (effective alone) dramatically enhanced the effect of vanadate on c-jun gene expression. Catalase inhibited the effect of
NADH
partly. The vanadate-stimulated expression of actin and c-Ha-ras mRNA were unaffected by oxidants, reductants, metal chelators, or anti-oxidant enzymes. Evidently vanadate acts by two separate mechanisms on these two categories of genes. The alternate hypothesis that the actions of vanadate on actin and c-Ha-ras were mediated by a
protein kinase
cascade was inconsistent with the following observations. Neither insulin nor epidermal growth factor increased mRNA levels of c-Ha-ras or actin gene. Neither genistein (a tyrosine kinase inhibitor) nor pretreatment with 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate blocked the actions of vanadate on these genes. Clearly the biological actions of vanadium depend in part on altered expression of genes. Since two of the genes are proto-oncogenes, this mechanism is potentially relevant to the mitogenic responses of cells to vanadium.

Crude extracts of Escherichia coli contain a
protein kinase
, EI-K, that phosphorylates enzyme I (EI) of the phosphoenolpyruvate:glycose phosphotransferase system (PTS). Phosphorylation occurs at the active site histidine residue. The activity of EI-K was lost during purification. However, kinase activity was restored by adding NAD+ or NADP+.
NADH
reversed NAD+ activation of the kinase, and the level of EI-K activity was dependent on the NAD+/
NADH
ratio. Although crude preparations of EI-K showed no NAD+ requirement, they were completely inhibited by
NADH
, either in the assay mixture or when the enzyme was pretreated and the
NADH
was removed prior to the assay. NAD+ restored full activity to the
NADH
-pretreated inactive fractions. The results suggest that EI-K contains a bound cofactor that is lost during purification and that may be analogous to NAD+. EI-K activity may serve to link some of the diverse functions of the PTS, such as sugar transport, to the metabolic state of the cell.

We have investigated the possible role of plasma membrane oxidoreductases in the Ca2+ export mechanisms in rat brain synaptic membranes. Ca2+ efflux in nerve terminals is controlled both by a high-affinity/low capacity Mg-dependent ATP-stimulated Ca2+ pump and by a low affinity/high capacity ATP-independent Na(+)-Ca2+ exchanger. Both Ca2+ efflux mechanisms were strongly inhibited by pyridine nucleotides, in the order NADP greater than NAD greater than NADPH greater than
NADH
with IC50 values of ca. 10 mM for NADP and ca. 3 mM for the other agents in the case of the ATP-driven Ca2+ pump and with IC50 values between 8 and 10 mM for the Na(+)-Ca2+ exchanger. Oxidizing agents such as DCIP3 and ferricyanide inhibited the ATP-driven Ca2+ efflux mechanism but not the Na(+)-Ca2+ exchanger. In addition, full activation of plasma membrane oxidoreductases requires both an acceptor and an electron donor; therefore the combined effects of both substrates added together were also studied. When plasma membrane oxidoreductases of the synaptic plasma membrane were activated in the presence of both
NADH
(or NADPH) and DCIP or ferricyanide, the inhibition of the ATP-driven Ca2+ pump was optimal; by contrast, the pyridine nucleotide-mediated inhibition of the Na(+)-Ca2+ exchanger was partially released when both substrates of the plasma membrane oxidoreductases were present together. Furthermore, the activation of plasma membrane oxidoreductases also strongly inhibited intracellular protein phosphorylation in intact synaptosomes, mediated by either
cAMP-dependent protein kinase
, Ca2+ calmodulin-dependent protein kinases, or protein kinase C.

S-Adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase (AdoHcyase) has previously been identified as a cytoplasmic adenosine and cyclic AMP binding protein. In order to examine the relationship between the adenosine and cyclic AMP binding sites on this enzyme we have explored the use of 8-azido analogues of adenosine and cyclic AMP as photoaffinity reagents for covalently labelling AdoHcyase purified from human placenta. 8-Azidoadenosine (8-N3-Ado), like adenosine, inactivated AdoHcyase, and the rate of inactivation was greatly increased by periodate oxidation. In addition, 8-N3-Ado was found to participate in the first step in the catalytic mechanism for AdoHcyase, resulting in conversion of enzyme-bound NAD+ to
NADH
, although it was not a substrate for the full enzyme-catalysed reaction. Radioactively labelled 8-N3-Ado, its periodate-oxidized derivative and 8-azidoadenosine 3', 5'-phosphate (8-N3-cAMP) bound specifically to adenosine binding sites on AdoHcyase and, after irradiation, became covalently linked to the enzyme. Photoaffinity-labelled enzyme could be precipitated by monoclonal antibody to human AdoHcyase. Two observations suggested that cyclic AMP and adenosine bind to the same sites on AdoHcyase. First cyclic AMP and adenosine each blocked binding of both radioactively labelled 8-N3-Ado and 8-N3-cAMP, and second, digestion with V8 proteinase generated identical patterns of peptides from AdoHcyase that had been photolabelled with [32P]8-N3-cAMP and [3H]8-N3-Ado. Binding sites for cyclic AMP on AdoHcyase were found to differ functionally and structurally from cyclic AMP binding sites on the R1 regulatory subunit of
cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase
.

The pyruvate dehydrogenase complex has been demonstrated in high speed pellet preparations from sonicated ribbed mussel gill mitochondria. The activity of the complex is inhibited by low chloride (less than 100 mM) concentrations, EDTA (1 mM), succinate, ATP, and NAD/
NADH
ratios below 4. Inhibition by EDTA is relieved by addition of 10 mM MgCl2-1 mM CaCl2. ATP inhibition was enhanced by NaF and reversed by high Mg++ concentrations in the absence of NaF. Pyruvate and thiamine pyrophosphate inhibited the inactivation by ATP. The nonhydrolyzable ATP analog AMP-PNP caused inhibition of the overall catalytic activity that was identical to ATP. Factors involved in the ATP inhibition and Mg++ reversal are lost with freezing or cold storage. Preliminary results using gamma-32P-ATP indicate that a
protein kinase
that phosphorylates the alpha subunit of E1 (pyruvate dehydrogenase) from the mammalian PDC is associated with the gill PDC. The activity of the complex may be regulated by a phosphorylation/dephosphorylation mechanism and by the relative levels of substrates, products, and other metabolites in the mitochondria.

The active NAD-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase of wild type yeast cells fractionated by DEAE-Sephacel chromatography was inactivated in vitro by the addition of either the cAMP-dependent or cAMP-independent protein kinases obtained from wild type cells. cAMP-dependent inhibition of glutamate dehydrogenase activity was not observed in the crude extract of bcy1 mutant cells which were deficient in the regulatory subunit of
cAMP-dependent protein kinase
. The
cAMP-dependent protein kinase
of CYR3 mutant cells, which has a high K alpha value for cAMP in the phosphorylation reaction, required a high cAMP concentration for the inactivation of NAD-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase. An increased inactivation of partially purified active NAD-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase (Mr = 450,000) was observed to correlate with increased phosphorylation of a protein subunit (Mr = 100,000) of glutamate dehydrogenase. The phosphorylated protein was labeled by an
NADH
analog, 5'-p-fluorosulfonyl[14C]benzoyladenosine. Activation and dephosphorylation of inactive NAD-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase fractions were observed in vitro by treatment with bovine alkaline phosphatase or crude yeast cell extracts. These results suggested that the conversion of the active form of NAD-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase to an inactive form is regulated by phosphorylation through cAMP-dependent and cAMP-independent protein kinases.

Sarcolemmal fractions of vascular smooth muscles were prepared from porcine thoracic aortae by differential and sucrose density gradient centrifugation. In these fractions, there was a high activity of 5'-nucleotidase, a putative marker enzyme of plasma membrane, and a low activity of rotenone insensitive
NADH
-cytochrome c reductase a marker of sarcoplasmic reticulum. In these fractions, the Ca2+ uptake was ATP-dependent. A low concentration of saponin which inhibited Ca2+ uptake by the plasma membrane but not by the sarcoplasmic reticulum, inhibited 65% of the Ca2+ uptake of this fraction. The Ca2+ uptake of this fraction was enhanced by cAMP- and cGMP-dependent protein kinases, and by calmodulin. The
cAMP-dependent protein kinase
enhanced the phosphorylation of 28 and 22 kDa proteins, while the
cGMP-dependent protein kinase
phosphorylated the 35 kDa protein. The phosphorylation of 100, 75, 65, 41 and 22 kDa proteins was enhanced by Ca2+ and calmodulin. These results indicate that cAMP- and cGMP-dependent protein kinases as well as calmodulin play important roles in Ca2+ transport in the sarcolemma, and that the phosphorylated proteins may be associated with an enhancement of Ca2+ transport in the sarcolemma.
