Urocaninase (EC 4.2.1.4.9) from rat liver homogenate has been purified, using protein precipitation at pH 4,8, ammonium sulfate fractionation, gel-filtration through Sephadex G-200 and chromatography on DEAE-cellulose. Upon DEAE-cellulose chromatography urocaninase is separated from the proteins possessing the activity of 3',5'-AMP-dependent protein kinase. The purified enzyme becomes activated after addition of ATP and exogenous protein kinase or one of the fractions resulting from DEAE-cellulose chromatography. Using [gamma-32P]ATP, it has been shown that such activation is accompanied by incorporation of at least one phosphate residue into the enzyme molecule. The mol. weight of urocaninase as determined by gel-filtration is about 110 000. The Km value for urocanate is 15 . 10(-6) M, the isoelectric point lies at 5,6. The mechanism of regulation of the urocaninase activity in rat liver is discussed.

Immunization of guinea pigs with bovine cardiac cAMP-dependent protein kinase (ATP:protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37) resulted in the development of precipitating antibodies to the cAMP-binding subunit of the enzyme. Both the phosphorylated and nonphosphorylated cAMP-binding protein of the protein kinase reacted with the antiserum. A radioimmunoassay was developed that detects 10 ng of holoenzyme and permits measurement of enzyme concentrations in bovine cardiac muscle. Bovine liver, kidney, brain, and skeletal muscle contain protein kinases which are immunologically identical to those found in bovine cardiac muscle. However, the proportion of immuno-reactive enzyme activity differed for each tissue. All of the immunologically nonreactive enzyme in skeletal muscle and heart was separable from immunoreactive enzyme by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose. Rat tissues and pig heart contained protein kinase activity that crossreacted immunologically in a nonparallel fashion with bovine cardiac enzyme. These results indicate that cAMP-dependent protein kinases within and between species are immunologically heterogeneous.

The effect of acidosis on cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity in perfused hearts from normal and reserpinized rats has been investigated. The results were compared to the effect of acidosis on myocardial contractility under the same conditions. The results showed that acidosis increases the cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity in normal hearts. This increase was abolished when the hearts were depleted of norepinephrine by previous treatment with reserpine. As regards myocardial contractility, there was a similar decrease by acidosis either in normal hearts with increased cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity or in reserpinized hearts in which the increase in protein kinase activity was prevented. Two alternative hypotheses are suggested: (1) a dissociation between contractility and cAMP levels, or (2) a "blockade" by acidosis of the mechanical effect of increasing cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity.

A cAMP-dependent protein kinase has been isolated from rabbit muscle and purified. The affinity constant of the enzyme for the nucleotide is Ka = 9.3 X 10(-9) M, with a Vmax = 0.013 X 10(12) moles bound cAMP/1 microgram protein. The influence exerted by different factors is studied: a) Inhibitor (I) of kinase activity: increases the binding capacity for cAMP, by percentages which depend on the amount of I. In the presence of inhibitor (120 microgram/100 microliter) the affinity constant is Ka = 4.1 X 10(-9) M, without change in Vmax. b) Effect of pH: it has a complex influence over binding, being also regulated by cAMP concentration. The positive effect on binding of ionic and bovine serum albumin concentrations, and the negative effect of enzyme preincubation before additions of (H3) cAMP, have also been studied. The importance of these effectors to obtain a high degree of sensitivity in the binding protein method has been assertained.

The effects of histamine on heart cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity, cAMP levels, phosphorylase activity, and contractile force was investigated in the perfused guinea pig heart. To accurately determine the protein kinase activity ratio in guinea pig heart, it was necessary to measure kinase activity in whole homogenates immediately after homogenization of the tissue. Histamine produced a rapid dose-dependent increase in cAMP and the protein kinase activity ratio followed by increased in contractile force and phosphorylase activity. There was a good correlation between the degree of protein kinase activation and the increase in phosphorylase and force. The beta-adrenergic blocking agent propranolol did not reduce the effects of histamine, but metiamide, a potent H2-receptor antagonist, greatly attenuated all the effects of histamine. The data support the hypothesis that increases in heart cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity produce corresponding increases in contractile force and phosphorylase activity.

It has been shown that the activity of Ca(2+)-ATPase increases during development. Epinephrine in vivo increases the activity of Ca(2+)-ATPase in chick skeletal muscles. The effect of hormone is lacking at embryonic stages of development and appears only before hatching. In the presence of exogenous protein kinase, cAMP also increases the activity of the enzyme, this effect being observed also in embryonic muscles. Lack of effect of epinephrine on Ca(2+)-ATPase in embryonic muscles is associated with non-reactivity of their adenylate cyclase to catecholamines. Ca(2+)-ATPase itself already at embryonic period is ready to react to cAMP. It is concluded that Ca(2+)-ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum is one of the sites of action of catecholamines on calcium metabolism in muscle cell and that this action is realized via the system adenylate cyclase-cAMP-protein kinase.

Phosphorylase b kinase from rabbit muscle phosphorylates glycogen synthase purified from the same tissue. The reaction is markedly stimulated by Ca2+ and results in a decrease in the synthase %I activity. Phosphorylase b kinase action leads to the incorporation of phosphate (0.6 to 0.8 mol/mol of subunit) preferentially into a single cyanogen bromide fragment of synthase (fragment III). Cyclic AMP-independent synthase kinase also shows a specificity for the site(s) contained in fragment III whereas the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase exerts a preference for the site(s) located in a distinct cyanogen bromide fragment (fragment II). A Ca2+-stimulated endogenous kinase also results in the phosphorylation of fragment III and can be attributed to the presence of phosphorylase b kinase. The finding of a Ca2+-stimulated phosphorylation of glycogen synthase has important implications for the regulation of glycogen metabolism and particularly those processes thought to be controlled by cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration.

The purpose of this study was to determine whether the previously reported differences in adenylate cyclase activity between the sarcolemma of normal and dystrophic chick muscles are also found in the SR, to search for a possible relationship between the adenylate cyclase changes and the pathophysiology of dystrophy, and to investigate whether the findings can be extended to Duchenne human muscular dystrophy by studying the adenylate cyclase and ATPase activities of erythrocyte ghosts from DMD patients and carriers. Microsomes were separated by standard techniques from the pectoralis muscles of normal and dystrophic ckeckens of various ages. The microsomal yields were significantly larger in dystrophic muscles. Adenylate cyclase activities in dystrophic microsomes were higher than those in matched controls and increased with the progression of the disease. The ratio between the two rose from one at 2 weeks of age to nine at about 9--10 weeks. Kinetic analyses showed that the ks for MgATP2- was about 40 microM (at 3 mM Mg2+ and 0.3 mM Ca2+) both in normal and dystrophic microsomes, that calcium caused umcompetitive inhibition of the enzyme (Ki = 0.2 mM), that the effect of calcium was noncooperative (Hill coefficient, nH = 1), that calcium did not affect the cooperativity for MgATP2-, and that magnesium competitively removed the calcium inhibition and caused additional, cooperative stimulation of the enzymatic activity (ka = 1.5 mM; NH =2). The major difference between normal and dystrophic adenylate cyclase was a higher enzymatic velocity in the latter, suggesting a larger amount of enzyme. We investigated whether altered cAMP levels may effect calcium accumulation. Calcium uptake measured (in the presence of oxalate) at several ages revealed no difference between normal and dystrophic chickens. The extent of calcium binding was also similar, although the kd for Ca2+ was lower in dystrophic microsomes. Binding was enhanced in the presence of exogenous protein kinase, but the responses of normal and dystrophic tissues were similar. We concluded that the elevation of adenylate cyclase in dystrophy was not related to microsomal calcium accumultion. Ivestigation of the localization of microsomal adenylate cyclase supported this view. Separation of calcium-loaded microsomes on a discontinuous sucrose gradient into four fractions demonstrated that adenylate cyclase activity, measured in the presence of Lubrol-PX and EGTA, was inversely related to calcium-accumulating activity. Na+, K+-ATPase comigrated with adenylate cyclase. Highest specific activities were found in the lightest fraction. These observations were confirmed by histochemical studies. The reaction product from adenylate cyclase activity was present predominantly in the terminal cisternae of the SR. In the context of the literature, our findings suggest that the rises in adenylate cyclase and Na+, K+-ATPase in avian dystrophy are compensatory changes, elicited by a defect in ECC at the calcium release step...

Isoelectric focusing of a purified fraction of thermostable modulator of 3',5'-AMP-dependent protein kinase revealed five individual proteins, the main protein having an isoelectric point of 4,05. The molecular weight of this protein as determined by gel filtration is 8000--9000. The protein with a pI of 4,05 binds Ca2+ and in contrast to the original modulator inhibits the endogenous 3',5'-AMP-dependent phosphorylation of synaptic membranes. An addition of the original modulator fraction to the microsomes isolated from nervous tissue increases the Mg, Ca-ATPase activity and absorption of 45Ca. Neither the protein with a pI of 4,05 nor other individual proteins affect the activity of transport ATPase. The activating effect is partly restored after mixing of all the five subfractions. It is assumed that these proteins are aggregated by Ca2+ and change the activity of ATPase or membrane 3',5'-AMP-dependent protein kinase depending on the concentration of calcium ions.

Protein kinase isolated from rabbit skeletal muscle can be reversibly converted from the cAMP dependent form to the indepent form by chaotropic salts and urea. A similar but irreversible conversion can also be induced by trypsin digestion of the holoenzyme. The dissociation of cAMP dependent protein kinase by low concentrations of thiocyanate raises the possibility of isolating both native regulatory and catalytic subunits. From various changes in enzymatic activity caused by urea and trypsin perturbation, it is proposed that the conversion of protein kinase from the cAMP dependent to the independent form is due primarily to preferential modification of the regulatory subunit of the holoenzyme.
