Signaling via the alpha-beta T cell Ag receptor (Ti)-CD3 complex is a complicated event that implicates several protein kinases, most notably protein kinase C (PKC). We have recently identified a serine kinase in T lymphocytes with the following characteristics: molecular mass 43 kDa, in vitro substrate affinity for microtubule associated protein 2 (MAP-2) with a preference for Mn2+ during the catalytic reaction, and elution from DEAE resin over a salt range 100 to 200 mM NaCl. This kinase is activated in a rapidly reversible fashion during ligation of CD3/Ti by a process which involves prior phosphorylation; in vitro exposure of activated 43-kDa MAP-2 kinase (MAP-K) to an immobilized phosphatase abrogated its kinase activity. We now show that a MAP-2K response could also be obtained during treatment with mAb to Ti and the specific PKC agonist, PMA. Although the kinetics of the former response was rapidly reversible, PMA elicited a more prolonged response. The dose responsiveness for PMA was similar to the requirements for PKC activation in intact lymphocytes. Moreover, as with PKC, we found that the CD3-induced MAP-2K response could be further enhanced by using a second layer cross-linking antibody. The specificity of CD3/Ti in the Jurkat cell response is demonstrated by the fact that OKT-11(CD2) and anti-CD4 mAb did not stimulate a MAP-2K response. It was also not possible to elicit a response in a Jurkat cell mutant that lacks surface expression of CD3 and Ti. The specificity of PKC in these events was further explored with the cell permeant diacylglycerol, 1-oleoyl-2-acetylglycerol, and the nonagonist phorbol ester, 4 alpha-phorbol 12,13-didecanoate: whereas the former was an effective inducer of the MAP-2K response, the latter failed to yield any stimulation. Prior exposure of Jurkat cells to 100 mM PMA for 24 h eliminated greater than 60% of the MAP-2K response during anti-CD3 treatment. This response could also be inhibited in dose-dependent fashion by prior treatment of Jurkat cells with the potent PKC inhibitor 1-(5-isoquinolinesulfonyl) 2-methylpiperazine dihydrochloride. Although a Ca2(+)-ionophore failed to synergize with PMA at inducing a MAP-2K response, depletion of extracellular Ca2+ by EGTA abrogated anti-CD3 responsiveness. The events culminating in MAP-2K activation were slightly inhibited in the presence of cholera toxin but not pertussis toxin.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Calcium, adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP), and guanosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cGMP) can regulate the same or different ion transport processes within an epithelium, presumably via independent protein phosphorylation mechanisms. Because there have been few detailed studies characterizing these processes in epithelia, we examined the distribution of Ca-, cAMP-, and cGMP-specific protein kinases and substrates in vitro in a homogenous salt-absorbing epithelium, the winter flounder intestine. In this tissue cGMP and Ca inhibit Na-K-2Cl cotransport, cAMP increases anion permeability, and phorbol esters do not affect ion transport. The Ca-specific kinases are calmodulin (CaM) dependent. The tissue possesses type III Ca-CaM protein kinase and its specific substrate elongation factor 2 and type II but not type I Ca-CaM kinase. Addition of phosphatidylserine (PS) and Ca to crude or DEAE-cellulose-purified cytosol neither increased the phosphorylation of exogenous histone H1 substrate nor that of any endogenous substrates. Although these suggest the absence of Ca-phospholipid-dependent kinase (PKC), the cytosol has a 78-kDa protein recognizable by a highly specific polyclonal sheep antibody to rat brain PKC. Both the particulate and cytosolic fractions possess cAMP-specific binding proteins and cAMP-specific phosphoprotein substrates. The particulate fraction cAMP-binding proteins are of molecular mass 50 kDa (pI 5.2) and 48 kDa with multiple isoforms (pI 5.6-6.2); these proteins generate different peptide maps. The cytosol chiefly contains a 50-kDa (pI 5.2) cAMP binding protein that is similar to the particulate 50-kDa protein on peptide mapping. The flounder cAMP binding proteins have the same pI but lower molecular mass and different peptide profiles than the rat brain RII (54/52 kDa) and RI (50 kDa) cAMP regulatory proteins. The cGMP-specific protein kinase was less prominent, very low levels of cGMP-specific binding proteins being detected either by equilibrium binding or by photoaffinity labeling. A prominent kinase substrate in homogenates is a 50-kDa protein, the phosphorylation of which is increased by Ca and cGMP but decreased by cAMP. When intact tissue was prelabeled with 32Pi and then exposed to cGMP, the phosphorylation of a number of substrates including that of a 50-kDa protein was increased. In summary, the flounder intestine possesses the necessary protein phosphorylation mechanisms to account for the regulation of its ion transport processes by second messengers.

Several lines of evidence have demonstrated conclusively the presence of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (ecto-RC) activity on the external surface of goat cauda-epididymal intact spermatozoa. The intact-cell ecto-kinase that caused transfer of the terminal phosphate of exogenous ATP to the serine and threonine residues of exogenous histone was specifically activated by cAMP. As well, the ecto-kinase caused phosphorylation of the synthetic peptide Kemptide. The isolated spermatozoa, before or after incubation with reaction mixture for ecto-kinase assays, were approximately 99.5% viable, as shown by the analyses of ethidium bromide fluorescence and the cytosolic marker enzymes lactic dehydrogenase and 3-phosphoglycerate kinase. The ecto-kinase activity was not due to contamination of epididymal plasma and damaged cells or to protein kinase that may have leaked from the cells. There was little uptake of ATP and histone by the cells. The intact-cell kinase activity was strongly (80-90%) inhibited by treatment with membrane nonpenetrating surface probes: p-chloromercuriphenylsulfonic acid (2 microM), diazonium salt of sulfanilic acid (DSS, 0.5 mM), and proteases such as trypsin, chymotrypsin, and pronase (each 125 micrograms/mL). Disruption of sperm plasma membrane by sonication or Triton X-100 (0.2%) caused about a fivefold increase of the intact sperm kinase activity. Highly purified sperm plasma membrane (PM) possessed ecto-kinase activity that was resolved into type I and II kinases by DEAE-cellulose chromatography, the type I isoenzyme being the major (approximately 70%) enzymic species. Treatment of the intact spermatozoa with DSS prior to isolation of PM caused a marked loss of the activities of both the isoenzymes, indicating thereby the "ecto" nature of the PM-bound type I and II kinases. Preparations of vigorously forward-motile spermatozoa with 100% intactness had approximately fourfold higher specific activity of the ecto-kinase than the "composite" cells from which the former cells were isolated. However, the profiles of the type I and II ecto-kinases of the composite, as well as forward-motile spermatozoa, were nearly identical. The data are consistent with the view that ecto-kinases may have role in the regulation of flagellar motility.

Permeabilized, MgATP-reactivated cells of Paramecium (models) respond to cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP by increasing forward swimming speed. In association with the motile response, cyclic AMP and 8-bromo-cyclic GMP (8-Br-cyclic GMP) stimulated protein phosphorylation. Cyclic AMP addition to permeabilized cells reproducibly stimulated the phosphorylation of 10 proteins, ranging in molecular weight from 15 to 110K (K = 10(3) Mr). 8-Br-cyclic GMP, which selectively activates the cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinase of Paramecium, stimulated the phosphorylation of a subset of the proteins phosphorylated by cyclic AMP. Ca2+ addition caused backward swimming and stimulated the phosphorylation of four substrates, including a 25K target that may also be phosphorylated in response to cyclic nucleotide addition. Ba2+ and Sr2+ also induced backward swimming, but did not cause detectable phosphorylation. To identify ciliary targets of cyclic nucleotide-dependent protein kinase activity, permeabilized cells were deciliated following reactivation of motility with Mg-[gamma-32P]ATP in the presence or absence of cyclic nucleotide. Soluble proteins of the deciliation supernatant were enriched in 15 cyclic AMP-stimulated phosphoproteins, ranging in molecular weight from 15 to 95K. Most of the ciliary substrates were axonemal and could be released by high salt solution. A 29K protein that copurified in sucrose gradients with the 22S dynein, and a high molecular weight protein (greater than 300K) in the 19 S region were phosphorylated when cyclic AMP was added to permeabilized, motile cells. These data suggest that regulation of ciliary motility by cyclic AMP may include phosphorylation of dynein-associated proteins.

This study examines the role of endogenous dopamine (DA) for the regulation of renal tubular sodium (Na) transport. The enzyme L-amino acid decarboxylase (L-AADC) that converts L-dopa to DA has been localized to the proximal tubule cells with immunocytochemistry. Locally formed DA will inhibit the activity of Na-K-ATPase, the enzyme that yields energy to active Na transport. The effect is of physiological importance during high salt diet. The phosphoprotein DARPP-32, a DA1 receptor associated third messenger is abundant in the medullary thick ascending limb of Henle (mTAL). DARPP-32 is phosphorylated after activation of DA1 receptors. DARPP-32 is in its phosphorylated form a potent phosphatase inhibitor. Activation of the DA1 receptor in mTAL with the DA1 agonist SKF 82526 causes dose-dependent inhibition of Na-K-ATPase activity. The effect involves activation of cAMP protein kinase. It is likely that this effect is potentiated by DARPP-32.

(Rp)-Adenosine 3',5'-monophosphorothioate ((Rp)-cAMPS) is a highly specific antagonist of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase from eukaryotic cells and is a very poor substrate for phosphodiesterases. It is therefore a useful tool for investigating the role of cAMP as a second messenger in a variety of biological systems. Taking advantage of stereospecific inversion of configuration around the alpha-phosphate during the adenylate cyclase reaction, we have developed a method for the preparative enzymatic synthesis of the Rp diastereomer of adenosine 3',5'-monophosphorothioate ((Rp)-cAMPS) from the Sp diastereomer of adenosine 5'-O-(1-thiotriphosphate) ((Sp)-ATP alpha S). The adenylate cyclase from Bordetella pertussis, partially purified by calmodulin affinity chromatography, cyclizes (Sp)-ATP alpha S approximately 40-fold more slowly than ATP, but binds (Sp)-ATP alpha S with about 10-fold higher affinity than ATP. The triethylammonium salt of the reaction product can be purified by elution from a gravity flow reversed-phase C18 column with a linear gradient of increasing concentrations of methanol. Yields of the pure (Rp)-cAMPS product of a synthesis with 2 mg of substrate are about 75%.

Cl- channels in the apical membranes of salt-secreting epithelia are activated by both cAMP and Ca2+ second-messenger systems, and dysfunctions in their hormonal regulation have been demonstrated in patients with cystic fibrosis. We have transfected the epithelial cell line T84 with an expression vector containing a mutant form of the regulatory subunit of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Stable transformants that express this construct have reduced basal cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity and do not increase kinase activity beyond the basal level of control cells in response to cAMP. Forskolin, vasoactive intestinal peptide, and prostaglandin E2 each stimulate intracellular cAMP accumulation in both mutant and control clones; however, the activation of Cl- channels in response to elevated cAMP is blocked in mutant clones, indicating direct involvement of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase. In contrast, Ca2+ ionophores retain their ability to activate the Cl- channel in T84 cells expressing the mutant regulatory subunit, suggesting that activation of the channel by means of Ca2+ does not require the participation of cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity. These clones will be useful for further studies of the interactions between the cAMP- and Ca2(+)-dependent regulatory pathways in salt-secreting epithelial cells. They can also be used to identify the mediators of Ca2(+)-dependent Cl- channel activation in isolation from interactions with the cAMP second-messenger pathway.

When sea urchin spermatozoa were treated with a Triton X-100 solution, cAMP-dependent protein kinase (cA-kinase) activity was extracted. Further extraction with Triton X-100 of axonemes isolated from the Triton-extracted sperm again released a considerable amount of the cA-kinase activity. The activity which remained after extraction three times with Triton X-100 was released by treatment with a low salt solution. These activities found in the various extracts were likely to be due to the same cA-kinase, which was a mammalian type II-like enzyme. The cA-kinase activity that remained in the axonemes after the first Triton X-100 extraction may be involved in the regulation of flagellar movement in the Triton-extracted sperm.

Highly purified plasma membranes (PMs) isolated by aqueous two-phase polymer methods from goat sperm undergoing epididymal maturation, have been analyzed for the isoenzymes of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (RC). The mature and the immature spermatozoa showed profound differences in the profile of the isoenzymes of RC solubilized from the isolated PMs with 0.1% Triton X-100. The immature sperm PM consists of only type I RC in contrast to the mature sperm membrane which possesses both the type I and II isoenzymes. The type II kinase represents nearly 30% of the total membrane-bound RC of the mature cells. The analysis of the surface topography of these isoenzymes of the maturing spermatozoa by using diazonium salt of sulfanilic acid as the surface probe shows that the PM-bound RC(s) are oriented primarily on the external surface of these intact cells. The data demonstrate that type II RC is a maturation-specific ecto-kinase as it appears on the sperm surface specifically during the maturation of spermatozoa in the epididymis.

The regulation of Cl- conductance by cytoplasmic nucleotides was investigated in pancreatic and parotid zymogen granules. Cl- conductance was assayed by measuring the rate of cation-ionophore-induced osmotic lysis of granules suspended in iso-osmotic salt solutions. Both inhibition and stimulation were observed, depending on the type and concentration of nucleotide. Under optimal conditions, the average inhibition measured in different preparations was 1.6-fold, whereas the average stimulation was 4.4-fold. ATP was inhibitory at 1-10 microM but stimulated Cl- conductance above 50 microM. Stimulation by ATP was more pronounced in granules with low endogenous Cl- conductance. The potency of nucleotides in terms of inhibition was ATP greater than adenosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (ATP[S]) greater than UTP much greater than or equal to CTP much greater than or equal to GTP much greater than or equal to guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (GTP[S]) much greater than or equal to ITP. The potency with respect to stimulation had the following order: adenosine 5'-[beta gamma-methylene]triphosphate (App[CH2]p) greater than ATP greater than guanosine 5'-[beta-thio]diphosphate (GDP[S]). Adenosine 5'-[beta gamma-imido]triphosphate (App[NH]p) was also stimulatory, and was more potent than ATP in the parotid granules, but less potent in the pancreatic granules. Aluminium fluoride stimulated Cl- conductance maximally at 15-30 microM-Al3+ and 10-15 mM-F. F was less effective at higher concentrations. Protein phosphorylation by kinases was apparently not involved, since the nucleotide effects (1) could be mimicked by non-hydrolysable analogues of ATP and GTP, (2) showed reversibility, and (3) were not abolished by the protein kinase inhibitors 1-(5-isoquinolinesulphonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H-7) or staurosporine. The data suggest the presence of at least two binding sites for nucleotides, whereby occupancy of one induces inhibition and occupancy of the other induces stimulation.
