Beta-Adrenoceptor agonists activate a time- and voltage-independent Cl- conductance in mammalian cardiac myocytes. To characterize the cellular signaling pathways underlying its regulation, wide-tipped pipettes fitted with a pipette perfusion device were used to record whole-cell current and to introduce nucleotides to the interior of guinea pig ventricular myocytes. Replacement of pipette GTP with GDP beta S prevented activation of the Cl- conductance by Iso, suggesting a requirement for G protein turnover. With GTP in the pipette, the effect of Iso could be abolished by the beta-adrenoceptor antagonist propranolol, and mimicked by histamine or forskolin. These actions of Iso and forskolin are mediated exclusively via cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA), because (a) maximal activation of the Cl- conductance by forskolin or pipette cAMP occluded the effect of Iso, and (b) switching to pipette solution containing a synthetic peptide inhibitor (PKI) of PKA completely abolished the Cl- conductance activated by Iso and prevented the action of forskolin, but had no further effect. These results argue against basal activation of the Cl- conductance, and make it extremely unlikely that the stimulatory G protein, Gs, has any direct, phosphorylation-independent influence. The muscarinic receptor agonists acetylcholine (ACh) and carbachol diminished, in a reversible manner, Cl- conductance activated by Iso or forskolin, but not that elicited by cAMP. The muscarinic inhibition was abolished by replacing pipette GTP with GDP beta S, or by preincubating cells with pertussis toxin (PTX), and was therefore mediated by an inhibitory G protein, presumably Gi, influencing adenylyl cyclase activity. Nonhydrolyzable GTP analogues (GTP gamma S or GppNHp) applied via the pipette did not themselves activate Cl- conductance, but rendered Cl- current activation by brief exposures to Iso or histamine, but not to forskolin, irreversible. The Cl- conductance persistently activated by Iso was insensitive to propranolol or ACh, but could still be abolished by pipette application of PKI. The data indicate that stimulation of beta-adrenergic or histaminergic receptors in the presence of nonhydrolyzable GTP analogues causes persistent activation of Gs and uncouples it from the receptors. We conclude that autonomic regulation of cardiac Cl- conductance reflects accurately the underlying modulation of adenylyl cyclase activity and, hence, that this system is a suitable mammalian model for in situ studies of the interactions between adenylyl cyclase, Gs, Gi, and forskolin.

We previously purified RNA polymerase II transcription factor delta from rat liver and found that it has an associated DNA-dependent ATPase (dATPase) activity. In this report, we show that delta is also closely associated with a protein kinase activity that catalyzes phosphorylation of the largest subunit of RNA polymerase II. Kinase activity copurifies with transcription and DNA-dependent ATPase (dATPase) activities when delta is analyzed by anion- and cation-exchange HPLC as well as by sucrose gradient sedimentation, arguing that delta possesses all three activities. Phosphorylation of the largest subunits of both rat and yeast RNA polymerase II is stimulated by DNA, whereas phosphorylation of a synthetic peptide containing multiple copies of the carboxyl-terminal heptapeptide repeat is not. Although both ATP and GTP appear to function as phosphate donors, GTP is utilized less than 10% as well as ATP. These findings suggest that delta may exert its action in transcription at least in part through a mechanism involving phosphorylation of the largest subunit of RNA polymerase II.

This study shows the presence of seven different low-molecular-weight GTP binding proteins (smg proteins) with molecular masses between 18 and 27 kDa in subfractions of rat pancreatic acinar cells. After stimulation of isolated intact and permeabilized pancreatic acinar cells with cholecystokinin octapeptide (CCK-OP), the diacylglycerol (DG) analogue 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA), vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP), adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP), or guanosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (GTP gamma S), [alpha-32P]GTP binding to 21- to 22-kDa smg protein(s) in microsomal membranes (MM) was reduced, whereas the [alpha-32P]GTP binding to 23-kDa protein(s) was enhanced. In addition, prestimulation of permeabilized cells with GTP gamma S caused enhancement of [alpha-32P]GTP binding to a 19-kDa protein in MM [immunologically identified as the ADP-ribosylation factor (arf)]. In the presence of cytosol, direct addition of GTP gamma S to isolated MM resulted in an apparent translocation of the 19-kDa protein (arf) from the cytosol to membranes. This indicates increased association of arf with the membrane in its GTP-bound state. In CCK-OP-prestimulated acinar cells, [alpha-32P]GTP binding to plasma membrane-located 21- to 22-kDa proteins (immunologically identified as p21ras proteins) was enhanced, suggesting that there is an interrelationship between p21ras proteins and CCK receptors. Our results give evidence for a role of 19-kDa, 21- to 22-kDa, and 23-kDa smg proteins in cAMP-protein kinase A- and DG-protein kinase C-mediated stimulation of intracellular pathways in pancreatic acinar cells.

Incubation of 80S ribosomes with a substoichiometric amount of [alpha-32P]GTP and with eEF-2 resulted in the specific labeling of one ribosomal protein which migrated very close to the position of the acidic phosphoprotein P2 from the 60S subunit in two-dimensional isofocusing-SDS gel electrophoresis. Localization of protein P2 in this electrophoretic system was ascertained by correlation with its position in the standard two-dimensional acidic-SDS gel electrophoresis after its specific phosphorylation by casein kinase II. Labeling of the ribosomal protein was dependent on the presence of eEF-2, and could be attributed to [alpha-32P]GDP binding from the results of chase experiments and HPLC identification, this binding being very likely responsible for the slight shift in the electrophoretical position of the protein. Incubation of ribosomes with tRNA(Phe) in the absence of mRNA induced the release of the bound GDP.

The mode of dopamine action (DA) was investigated both on identified neurons (growth hormone producing cells--GHC) and on the membrane fraction of the CNS tissue homogenate. Adenylate cyclase activity (ACA) in the Lymnaea membrane depended on the GTP, stimulated and inhibited by different well known mediators, dopamine action being one of them. DA produced a stimulatory and inhibitory action on ACA. Direction of the DA action depended on the GTP concentration: at lower concentration of the GTP DA was a stimulator of ACA, at higher--an inhibitor. It is shown that inhibitory influence of DA on ACA was prevented by treatment of the membrane of the catalytic subunit of the protein kinase A (cPKA). It is particularly noticeable that inhibitory influence of cPKA-dependent phosphorylation reduced the inhibitory action of ALF4-, a G-protein activator. Effect of DA application on the GHC induced appearance of inward and outward currents through the neuronal membrane.

1. A protein kinase type II was purified from calf thymus chromatin using ammonium sulphate fractionation, ion exchange chromatography on DEAE and phosphocellulose and affinity chromatography on phosvitin- and casein-sepharose columns. 2. The enzyme moves as a single band in non-denaturing gel electrophoresis at pH 8.3, which coincides with the enzyme activity assayed on gel slices. 3. Sodium dodecyl sulphate gel electrophoresis shows three separate polypeptide chains having M(r) of 40,000, 38,000 and 25,000, respectively. The native M(r) was about 130,000, as measured by HPLC on Superose 12 column, suggesting a subunit structure of alpha, alpha', beta 2 type. The enzyme incubated with [gamma 32P]ATP or [gamma 32P]GTP as phosphoryl donors undergoes autophosphorylation in the M(r) = 25,000 subunit. 4. The enzyme phosphorylates casein (Km = 7 microM) and phosvitin (Km = 5 microM) but not histones and was strongly deactivated by Zn2+ ions (I50 = 0.05 mM) and heparin (I50 = 0.1 micrograms/ml). 5. The enzyme seems to be the major phosphorylating system present in the 0.35 M NaCl chromatin extract of calf thymus. The RNA polymerase II from calf thymus and RNA polymerase from E. coli are both phosphorylated by protein kinase NII. The effect of phosphorylation, which causes a remarkable increase of DNA transcription rate, was studied in vitro and extensively discussed.

We have purified and characterised an apparently novel nuclear 42-kDa casein kinase from epithelial cells of Chironomus tentans which comigrates with a phosphoprotein associated with transcriptionally active salivary gland genes. The protein kinase promotes phosphorylation of casein and phosvitin, using either ATP or GTP as phosphate donors, and undergoes autophosphorylation. The casein kinase activity of the 42-kDa protein is sensitive to heparin, 5,6-dichloro-1-beta-D-ribofuranosylbezimidazole (DRB), spermine and spermidine indicating that it is a novel enzyme with similar but not identical properties to casein kinase II or nuclear protein kinase NII.

A type II casein kinase has been purified from the soluble fraction of Dictyostelium discoideum vegetative cells. The enzyme has been purified 370 fold and behaves catalytically as casein kinase type II, in the sense that it utilizes GTP as well as ATP as phosphoryl donors, it is inhibited by low heparin concentrations and phosphorylates a specific peptide for CK II. It is a tetramer of 38 kDa-subunits with catalytic activity and ability to autophosphorylate in vitro. The comparison of this activity with the nuclear enzyme previously purified from the same organism indicates that both have the same molecular structure. Both enzymes have antigenic determinants in common with casein kinase II from bovine thymus, suggesting a high degree of conservation during evolution. Studies on the activity of this enzyme during early differentiation, and in the transition from quiescence to proliferation shows an increase in specific activity suggesting a crucial role for the enzyme in this organism.

Both GS alpha-1 and GS alpha-4 were phosphorylated by the purified catalytic sub-unit of protein kinase A. Phosphate incorporation into 220 pmol and 190 pmol of GS alpha-4 and GS alpha-1 after a 1 hour incubation with kinase was 14 pmol and 10 pmol, respectively. These low levels of phosphorylation are due to the thermal lability of purified recombinant GS alpha. However, the phosphorylation was inhibited by guanine nucleotides (GDP-beta-S, GppNHp and GTP) and is, therefore, a specific event. We suggest that, as for GS alpha phosphorylation by protein kinase C (Pyne et al., 1992), the guanine nucleotide-free form of GS alpha is the most likely substrate. Guanine-nucleotides reduce the lifetime and, therefore availability for phosphorylation, of guanine-nucleotide free GS alpha. GS alpha phosphorylation by protein kinase A in vitro provides preliminary evidence that a similar phosphorylation of GS alpha may be an important regulatory event in cells.

Previous studies demonstrated that the Mg complex of ATP decreases glyburide- and increases diazoxide-binding to membranes from pancreatic islets. To examine further the mechanism of these effects, the sulfonylurea receptors in microsomes of the hamster B-cell line HIT-T15 were solubilized with detergents. Maximum recovery of receptors (40%) was obtained with Triton X-100. Specific binding of [3H]glyburide to the solubilized receptors (Kd = 0.35 nM, maximum number of binding sites = 170 fmol/mg of protein) corresponded well to specific binding to microsomes. In Triton X-100 extracts, MgATP (300 microM) reduced the number of high-affinity sites for [3H]glyburide by 50% and increased the dissociation constant for [3H]glyburide by 4-fold; MgATP was half-maximally effective at 20 microM. Development of MgATP-induced inhibition of [3H]glyburide binding to solubilized binding sites was not slower than dissociation of [3H]glyburide binding. Alkaline phosphatase accelerated the reversal of MgATP-induced inhibition of [3H]glyburide binding. In the presence of Mg++, not only ATP but also ADP, GTP and GDP inhibited [3H]glyburide binding to the solubilized receptor. However, MgADP did not inhibit [3H]glyburide binding when the MgATP concentration was kept low by the hexokinase reaction. MgATP significantly enhanced diazoxide-induced displacement of [3H]glyburide from the solubilized receptor. The MgATP-induced inhibition of binding was weakened by millimolar concentrations of free ATP. It is concluded that the binding sites for MgATP, glyburide and diazoxide are located at a single protein or at closely associated proteins which may include a protein kinase.
