Tyrosine hydroxylase, the rate-limiting enzyme in catecholamine biosynthesis, is subject to regulation by the cAMP as well as the calcium and cGMP second messenger systems. Treatment of intact rat PC12 cells with neuropeptides including secretin and vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) stimulated tyrosine hydroxylase activity 2 to 3-fold in vitro. Secretin (EC50 = 10 nM) was about 3 orders of magnitude more potent than VIP (EC50 = 3 microM). A combination of several protease inhibitors failed to enhance the potency of either peptide. Other members of the secretin family including glucagon and peptide histidine isoleucine (PHI) stimulated tyrosine hydroxylase activity to a lesser extent. Somatostatin, which is not homologous to secretin, was ineffective. The maximal response of tyrosine hydroxylase activation to 1 microM secretin occurred within 6-15 sec. Secretin, VIP, and forskolin also enhanced tyrosine hydroxylase activity (3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine production) in intact cells, as determined by high performance liquid chromatography and electrochemical detection. Secretin, VIP, PHI, and glucagon increased the levels of cAMP in PC12 cells more than 10-fold, as determined by radioimmunoassay. We also demonstrated that cAMP is released from the cells into the incubation medium following secretin treatment. Secretin and VIP treatment also enhanced the activity of cAMP-dependent protein kinase in a concentration-dependent fashion, as measured subsequently in vitro. Based on the greater potency of secretin in comparison with VIP, PHI, and glucagon, we suggest that the PC12 cells contain a secretin-preferring receptor that increases cAMP levels and brings about an activation of tyrosine hydroxylase activity through the stimulation of cAMP-dependent protein kinase.

The synthetic peptide, Asp-Asp-Asp-Glu-Glu-Ser-Ile-Thr-Arg-Arg, derived from the phosphorylation site of casein kinase-1 (CK-1) in beta-casein A(2), is readily phosphorylated by CK-1, but not by casein kinase-2(CK-2), cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, protein kinase C, phosphorylase kinase and protein kinase FA. Phosphorylation by CK-1 occurs only at Ser-6, Thr-8 being unaffected. The Km for the peptide is higher (1 mM) than for beta-casein A(2) (40 microM), while the Vmax is quite comparable. This is the first synthetic peptide substrate for CK-1 described so far, and can be used for the rapid and specific estimation of CK-1 activity in crude extracts.

PKI-(5-24)-amide is a 20-residue peptide with the sequence, Thr5-Thr-Tyr-Ala-Asp-Phe-Ile-Ala-Ser-Gly-Arg-Thr-Gly-Arg-Arg-Asn-A la-Ile-His- Asp24-NH2, that corresponds to the active portion of the heat-stable inhibitor protein of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (Cheng, H.-C., Kemp, B. E., Pearson, R. B., Smith, A. J., Misconi, L., Van Patten, S. M., and Walsh, D. A. (1986) J. Biol. Chem. 261, 989-992). Amino acid residues in PKI-(5-24)-amide responsible for the potent inhibition (Ki = 2.3 nM) of the catalytic subunit of protein kinase were further investigated using deletion and substitution analogs of the synthetic peptide. Residues 5, 23, and 24 were not required for activity since the 17-residue PKI-(6-22)-amide retained full potency. Sequential removal of the first seven amino acids from the NH2 terminus of PKI-(5-24)-amide caused a progressive 50-fold loss of inhibitory potency. In contrast, substitution of either Thr6, Asp9, or Ile11 with alanine, or Ala8 by leucine, in PKI-(5-22)-amide produced less than 3-fold decreases in potency. Of the 2 aromatic residues in PKI-(5-22)-amide, the individual substitution of Phe10 and Tyr7 by alanine caused, respectively, 90- and 5-fold decreases in inhibitory potency, demonstrating important roles for each. This NH2-terminal portion of the peptide is believed to contain a significant portion of alpha-helix. Many recognition or structural determinants are also essential in the COOH-terminal portion of PKI-(5-22)-amide. In addition to the basic subsite provided by the three arginines, several other of the residues are critical for full inhibitory potency. Substitution of Ile22 by glycine in either PKI-(5-22)-amide or PKI-(14-22)-amide lowered the inhibitory potency by 150- and 50-fold, respectively. Separate replacement of Gly17 or Asn20, in either PKI-(5-22)-amide or PKI-(14-22)-amide, caused 7-15-fold decreases in potency. Substitution of both Gly17 and Asn20 together (in PKI-(14-22)-amide) produced a synergistic loss of inhibitory activity. [Leu13,Ile14]PKI-(5-22)-amide, a doubly substituted analog exhibited a 42-fold increase in Ki value. We conclude that Ser13 and/or Gly14, Gly17, Asn20, and Ile22 each contribute important features to the binding of these inhibitory peptides to the protein kinase, either by providing recognition determinants, inducing structure, and/or allowing essential peptide backbone flexibility.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

The minimal structure in the heat-stable inhibitor protein of cAMP-dependent protein kinase required for a low nanomolar potency of inhibition is the peptide Thr6-Tyr-Ala-Asp-Phe-Ile-Ala-Ser-Gly-Arg-Thr-Gly-Arg-Arg-Asn-Ala-+ ++Ile22-NH2 (PKI-(6-22)-amide). While primary structural determinants for interaction with the protein kinase are distributed throughout the 17 residues of this peptide, we have previously shown that phenylalanine 10 in the NH2-terminal portion is a particularly important determinant for high affinity binding (Glass, D. B., Cheng, H.-C., Mende-Mueller, L., Reed, J., and Walsh, D. A. (1989) J. Biol. Chem. 264, 8802-8810). To investigate this requirement further, peptide analogs of PKI-(6-22)-amide in which various natural and nonstandard amino acids are substituted for phenylalanine 10 have been synthesized and tested for inhibitory potency against the catalytic subunit of the protein kinase. Consistent with the importance of the hydrophobicity of phenylalanine, an alanine 10 substitution analog exhibited a 270-fold decrease in inhibitory potency, whereas the leucine 10 analog lost only 33-fold in activity as compared to the parent peptide PKI-(6-22)-amide. Peptides containing the spatial conformation analogs D-phenylalanine, homophenylalanine, or phenylglycine were 60-120-fold less potent than the parent peptide. Peptides containing various para-substituted phenylalanines at position 10 were only 5-11-fold less potent. One exception to this was (4'-azidophenylalanine 10)PKI-(6-22)-amide, which was nearly equipotent with the parent inhibitor. The most potent analogs were those peptides containing highly aromatic residues at position 10. The 2'-thienylalanine 10, tryptophan (formyl) 10, tryptophan 10, and the 1'-naphthylalanine 10 analogs were 3-fold less potent, equipotent, slightly more potent, and 4-fold more potent than the parent peptide inhibitor, respectively. We conclude that phenylalanine 10 in PKI-(6-22)-amide, and presumably in the native protein inhibitor, interacts through specific hydrophobic and/or aromatic binding to a hydrophobic pocket or cleft near the active site of the protein kinase.

The amino acid sequence of a region on chromosomal protein HMG-I from human cells that is phosphorylated by casein kinase II has been determined. The sequence is: Leu-Glu-Lys-Glu-Glu-Glu-Glu-Gly-Ile-Ser-Gln-Glu-Ser(P)-Ser(P)-Glu-Glu-Gl u-Gln. It corresponds to the C-terminal residues 90-107 of HMG-I [(1989) Mol. Cell. Biol. 9, 2114-2123]. Sequence analysis of the native peptide (90-107) after treatment, which specifically converts phosphoserine residues to S-ethylcysteine, revealed that 70-80% of serine residues 102 and 103 were phosphorylated in vivo. Both residues were fully phosphorylated in vitro by incubation with casein kinase II. These results suggest that casein kinase II is involved in the regulation of HMG-I function in the cells.

Protein phosphatase T from rat liver, so termed due to its activity toward [32P-Thr]casein and its marked preference for the phosphopeptide Arg-Arg-Ala-Thr(P)-Val-Ala over its phosphoseryl derivative (Donella Deana, A., Marchiori, F., Meggio, F. and Pinna, L.A. (1982) J. Biol. Chem. 257, 8565-8568), is shown here to belong to the family of type 2A protein phosphatase according to Cohen's nomenclature (Ingebritsen, T.S. and Cohen, P. (1983) Eur. J. Biochem. 132, 255-261). In particular, protein phosphatase T is endowed with phosphorylase phosphatase activity that is stimulated by protamine, histone H1 and heparin, it is inhibited by spermine, it does not bind to heparin-Sepharose and it readily dephosphorylates the phosphopeptide Arg-Arg-Leu-Ser(P)-Ile-Ser-Thr-Glu-Ser reproducing the phosphorylation site of the alpha-subunit of phosphorylase kinase. The Mr of protein phosphatase T determined by gel filtration under non-denaturating conditions is about 150 kDa and its activity ratio toward histone H1 phosphorylated by protein kinase C versus histone H1 phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase is unusually high. Some properties of protein phosphatase T, such as its weak binding to DEAE-cellulose and its high stimulation by protamine as compared to a relatively poor stimulation by histone H1, suggest that it may be similar to subtype 2Ao of protein phosphatase 2A.

Phosphorylation of pure fructose-6-phosphate,2-kinase:fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase from bovine heart by cAMP-dependent protein kinase and protein kinase C was investigated. The major enzyme form (subunit Mr of 58,000) was rapidly phosphorylated by both cAMP-dependent protein kinase and protein kinase C, incorporating 0.8 and 1.0 mol/mol of subunit, respectively. The rate of phosphorylation of the heart enzyme by cAMP-dependent protein kinase was 10 times faster than that of the rat liver enzyme. The minor enzyme (subunit Mr of 54,000), however, was phosphorylated only by protein kinase C and was phosphorylated much more slowly with a phosphate incorporation of less than 0.1 mol/mol of subunit. Phosphorylation by either cAMP-dependent protein kinase or protein kinase C activated the enzyme, but each phosphorylation affected different kinetic parameters. Phosphorylation by cAMP-dependent protein kinase lowered the Km value for fructose 6-phosphate from 87 to 42 microM without affecting the Vmax, whereas the phosphorylation by protein kinase C increased the Vmax value from 55 to 85 milliunits/mg without altering the Km value. The phosphorylated peptides were isolated, and their amino acid sequences were determined. The phosphorylation sites for both cAMP-dependent protein kinase and protein kinase C were located in a single peptide whose sequence was Arg-Arg-Asn-Ser-(P)-Phe-Thr-Pro-Leu-Ser-Ser-Ser-Asn-Thr(P)-Ile-Arg-Arg-Pro. The seryl residue nearest the N terminus was the residue specifically phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase, whereas the threonine residue nearest the C terminus was phosphorylated by protein kinase C.

Tyrosine hydroxylase, a key enzyme in the biosynthesis of catecholamines, was previously shown to be phosphorylated on four distinct serine residues in PC12 cell cultures, each one being specific for the kinase system involved (McTigue, M., Cremins, J., and Halegoua, S. (1985) J. Biol. Chem. 260, 9047-9056). A cAMP- and Ca2+-independent protein kinase was found to be associated with tyrosine hydroxylase purified from rat pheochromocytoma tumor. The use of this activity and the availability of a large amount of purified tyrosine hydroxylase allowed identification of the site phosphorylated by this kinase activity. A peptide of 1.5 kDa (about 12 residues long), carrying the phosphorylation site, was released from 32P-labeled tyrosine hydroxylase by limited proteolysis with trypsin. This peptide was isolated from trypsinized tyrosine hydroxylase by sequential gel filtration and ion exchange chromatographies. Analysis by thin layer chromatography of an acid hydrolysate of the peptide revealed that it contained phosphoserine. The sequence determination of the peptide showed that it corresponded to the residues 38-45 in the tyrosine hydroxylase primary structure (Arg-Gln-Ser(P)-Leu-Ile-Glu-Asp-Ala). Thus, the associated kinase phosphorylated Ser-40, one of the phosphorylation sites for the cAMP-dependent protein kinase also found in rat pheochromocytoma tumors. These results are compared to those recently appearing in a report by Campbell et al. (Campbell, D. G., Hardie, D. G., and Vulliet, P. R. (1986) J. Biol. Chem. 261, 10489-10492).

1. The phorbol ester 12-O-tetradecanoyl phorbol 13-acetate (TPA) stimulates fatty acid synthesis from glucose in isolated adipocytes with a half-maximal effect at 0.72 microM. In seven batches of cells, the maximal effects of TPA and insulin were 8.5 +/- 1.1-fold and 27.1 +/- 2.1-fold respectively. Insulin also stimulated fatty acid synthesis from acetate 8.9 +/- 0.5-fold (three experiments), but TPA did not significantly increase fatty acid synthesis from this precursor. 2. In contrast to insulin, TPA treatment of isolated adipocytes did not produce an activation of acetyl-CoA carboxylase which was detectable in crude cell extracts. 3. The total phosphate content of acetyl-CoA carboxylase, isolated from adipocytes in the presence of protein phosphatase inhibitors, was estimated by 32P-labelling experiments to be 2.6 +/- 0.1 (5), 3.4 +/- 0.2 (5), and 3.8 +/- 0.2 (3) mol/mol subunit for enzyme from control, insulin- and TPA-treated cells respectively. Insulin and TPA stimulated phosphorylation within the same two tryptic peptides. 4. Purified acetyl-CoA carboxylase is phosphorylated in vitro by protein kinase C at serine residues which are recovered in three tryptic peptides, i.e. peptide T1, which appears to be identical with the peptide Ser-Ser(P)-Met-Ser-Gly-Leu-His-Leu-Val-Lys phosphorylated by cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase, and peptides Ta and Tb, which have the sequences Ile-Asp-Ser(P)-Gln-Arg and Lys-Ile-Asp-Ser(P)-Gln-Arg respectively, and which appear to be derived from a single site by alternative cleavages. None of these correspond to the peptides whose 32P-labelling increase in response to insulin or TPA. Peptides Ta/Tb are not significantly phosphorylated in isolated adipocytes, even after insulin or TPA treatment. Peptide T1 is phosphorylated in isolated adipocytes, but this phosphorylation is not altered by insulin or TPA. 5. These results show that TPA mimics the effect of insulin on phosphorylation, but not activation, of acetyl-CoA carboxylase, i.e. that these two events can be dissociated. In addition, phorbol ester stimulates phosphorylation of acetyl-CoA carboxylase in isolated adipocytes, but this is not catalyzed directly by protein kinase C, and acetyl-CoA carboxylase does not appear to be a physiological substrate for this kinase.

We have examined the sites phosphorylated on acetyl-CoA carboxylase in response to insulin in isolated adipocytes. Two tryptic peptides derived from the enzyme become more radioactive after treatment of 32P-labelled cells with insulin. One of these (T4a) accounts for a large part of the total increase in phosphate observed after insulin treatment, and comigrates with the peptide containing the sites phosphorylated in vitro by casein kinase-2. The other may correspond to the 'I' site peptide originally described by Brownsey and Denton in 1982: labelling of this peptide is stimulated at least threefold by insulin treatment, but it is a minor phosphopeptide and, even after insulin treatment, accounts for only about 2.5% of the enzyme-bound phosphate (equivalent to less than 0.1 mol phosphate/mol 240-kDa subunit). Two other major tryptic phosphopeptides (T1 and T4b) labelled in adipocytes do not change significantly in response to insulin, and comigrate with peptides containing sites phosphorylated in vitro by cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase and calmodulin-dependent multiprotein kinase respectively. We have sequenced peptides T4a and T4b from acetyl-CoA carboxylase derived from control and insulin-treated adipocytes, and also after phosphorylation in vitro with casein kinase-2 and the calmodulin-dependent multiprotein kinase. The results show that T4a and T4b are forms of the same peptide containing phosphate groups on different serine residues: Phe-Ile-Ile-Gly-Ser4-Val-Ser5-Gln-Asp-Asn-Ser6-Glu-Asp -Glu-Ile-Ser-Asn-Leu-. Site 5 was phosphorylated by the calmodulin-dependent protein kinase and site 6 by casein kinase-2. Migration in the T4a position was exclusively associated with phosphorylation in site 6, irrespective of the presence of phosphate in sites 4 and 5. Sites 5 and 6 were partially phosphorylated in control adipocytes, and there were also small amounts of phosphate in site 4. On stimulation with insulin, phosphorylation appeared to occur primarily at site 6, thus accounting for the increase in 32P-labelling of T4a. We were unable to isolate sufficient quantities of the other insulin-sensitive peptide to determine its sequence. Our results are consistent with the idea that insulin activates either casein kinase-2, or a protein kinase which has the same specificity as casein kinase-2. The function of this modification is not clear, since phosphorylation by casein kinase-2 has no direct effect on acetyl-CoA carboxylase activity.
