The phosphorylation of pig liver pyruvate kinase by cyclic adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate-dependent protein kinase has been studied. For comparison, mixed histone and a synthetic heptapeptide were also used as substrates. Protein kinase was purified by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, hydroxyapatite, and Sephadex G-200. The enzyme was stimulated by cyclic AMP with apparent Ka values of 2.5 and 0.8 x 10-7 M for pyruvate kinase and histone substrates, respectively. Divalent cations were essential for the activity of the protein kinase. Variation of the concentration of ATP resulted in approximately straight lines in Lineweaver-Burk plots for the phosphorylation of both pyruvate kinase and mixed histone. The apparent Km values for ATP were 21 and 11 muM, respectively. The phosphorylation rate increased with the concentration of pyruvate kinase even at a concentration of 2 muM pyruvate kinase. At a high ionic strength, the phosphorylation rate of both pyruvate kinase and histone decreased. The phosphorylation rate varied markedly with pH in imidazole/HC1 and Tris/HC1 buffers. At slightly alkaline pH values, pyruvate kinase was phosphorylated at a much higher rate than pH7, but this was not the case for histone. At pH 8.5, the phosphorylation rate of pyruvate kinase was 3.5 times the rate at pH 7, while the corresponding increase for the histone phosphorylation was 50 per cent. In potassium phosphate buffers, the phosphorylation rate of both substrates did not change significantly over the pH range studied. Arrhenius' plots of the protein kinase reaction resulted in a break at about 10 degrees when pyruvate kinase was used as substrate, whereas a straight line was obtained when using histone. The negative allosteric effectors of pyruvate kinase, alanine, and phenylalanine, increased the phosphorylation rate of pyruvate kinase at pH 8 by 50 and 120 per cent, respectively. The same effectors did not influence the phosphorylation rate of mixed histone or a synthetic heptapeptide. It is concluded that the conformations adopted by pyruvate kinase in the presence of allosteric inhibitors make it a better substrate for the protein kinase.

Partial separation of protein kinase activity from rhodopsin in isolated bovine retinal photoreceptor outer segments was accomplished by mild ultrasonic treatment followed by ultracentrifugation. Residual kinase activity in the rhodopsin-rich sediment was destroyed by chemical denaturation which did not affect the spectral properties of the rhodopsin. The retinal outer segment kinase was found to be specific for rhodopsin, since in these preparations it alone of several bovine protein kinases was capable of phosphorylating rhodopsin in the light. The phosphorylation reaction apparently requires a specific conformation of the rhodopsin molecule since it is abolished by heat denaturation of rhodopsin, and it is greatly reduced or abolished by treatment of the visual pigment protein with potassium alum after the rhodopsin has been "bleached" by light. When kinase and rhodopsin or opsin fractions were prepared from dark-adapted and bleached outer segments and the resultant fractions were mixed in various combinations of bleached and unbleached preparations, the observed pattern of light-activated phosphorylation was consistent only with the interpretation that a conformational change in the rhodopsin molecule in the light exposes a site on the visual pigment protein to the kinase and ATP. These results rule out the possibility of a direct or indirect (rhodopsin-mediated) light activation of the kinase. Finally, phosphorylation of retinal outer segment protein in monochromatic lights of various wavelengths followed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis indicates that both rhodopsin and the higher molecular weight visual pigment protein reported by several laboratories have the same action spectrum for phosphorylation. This result is consistent with the suggestion that the higher molecular weight species is a rhodopsin dimer.

Parathyroid hormone (PTH) was infused into thyroparathyroidectomized rats, and the protein kinase activity of the kidney was studied. When the tissue was homogenized in a buffer containing 5 mM potassium phosphate (pH 7.0), 2 mM EDTA, 1 mM mercaptoethanol, and 5 mM theophylline, the total protein kinase activity (measured in the presence of 5 muM cAMP) in the cytosol was decreased by the infusion of PTH, exhibiting an inverse relationship to cAMP level in the renal tissue. The decrease of total activity was accounted for by a decrease of cAMP-dependent kinase activity, and such a change was induced also by the infusion of calcitonin or dibutyryl cAMP. A substantial enzyme activity was solubilized from the particulate fraction with a buffer containing KC1. The infusion of PTH increased the kinase activity (activities measured in both the presence and absence of cAMP) solubilized from the particulate fraction, suggesting the translocation of activated enzyme from cytosol to some particulate cell component(s). However, when KC1 was added to the homogenization buffer in concentrations up to 150 mM or even higher, the total protein kianse activities in the cytosols of control and PTH rats were similar and there was simply an increase in the fraction of cAMP -independent activity. These observations indicate that the hormonally-induced increase of cAMP in vivo activates protein kinase of the kidney, and the activation of kinase results in apparent translocation of the enzyme from the soluble to the particulate fraction when the tissue is homogenized in buffers of low ionic strength. The physiological significance of this phenomenon, however, cannot be evaluated, due to the fact that the increased association of activated kinase with particulate component(s) is reversed by employing a homogenization buffer containing what is probably a physiological concentration of salt.

The effects of various ions commonly found in protein kinase assays upon the rate of histone phosphorylation catalyzed by the highly purified bovine brain enzyme, protein kinase I, have been investigated. Sodium, potassium, and magnesium were found to inhibit histone phosphorylation by protein kinase I in a similar manner. The degree of inhibition by any of these cations was demonstrated to be directly proportional to the square root of the ionic strength of the assay medium. The relationship between the ionic strength of the assay medium and the rate of histone phosphorylation catalyzed by protein kinase I was employed to correct the rate of histone phosphorylation at various magnesium acetate concentrations to a standard ionic strength. When this was done an analysis of the previously postulated rate law for histone phosphorylation c atalyzed by protein kinase I gave a binding constant for the magnesium-ATP complex which was in agreement with that expected for this complex on the basis of various binding constants available in the literature. These results demonstrate that it is unnecessary to postulate a specific ion inhibition process for protein kinase I by the ions employed in this study. They also support the reasonable assumption that magnesium ion binds to ATP at or prior to the rate-determining step in histone phosphorylation catalyzed by protein kinase I. The expression developed in this paper for the effect of ionic strength upon protein kinase I activity can now be used to correct activity measurements made under various assay conditions to a standard assay state, allowing facile comparisons of kinetic data. It should be possible to develop similar expressions for other protein kinases and substrates to permit useful interpretation of kinetic data.

Protein kinase from the bull myocardium tissue was separated by means of the stepped gradient of buffer concentrations on DEAE-cellulose. Sensitivity of the obtained fractions to cAMP was studied. Protein kinase isolated at elution by 0.3 M potassium-phosphate buffer from DEAE-cellulose is less sensitive to cAMP than protein kinase isolated according to Kuo. A decrease in the content of cAMP is established in the tissues of the skeletal muscles and adrenals of rats after long physical loading. No statistically significant changes are found in the level of cAMP under the same conditions in the myocardium and brain tissues.

The authors studied the effect of rubidium, lithium and cesium on the ATPase system and c-AMP protein kinase in brain. They demonstrated that rubidium could replace potassium in the Na+K-ATPase system, whereas lithium and cesium had no effect on this enzyme activity in the absence of potassium. K+-dependent ATPase was activated by even low rubidium concentrations; lithium and cesium inhibited it. None of three (rubidium, lithium and cesium) affected c-AMP protein kinase.

The heat-stable protein (protein kinase modulator), partially purified from fresh bovine heart, possessed the ability to inhibit and stimulate adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cAMP)-dependent protein kinase and guanosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cGMP)-dependent protein kinase activities, respectively. The inhibitory activity of protein kinase modulator on cAMP-dependent protein kinase was abolished almost completely by trypsin treatment, while the ability to stimulate cGMP-dependent protein kinase activity was resistant to trypsin. Fractionation by a linear potassium phosphate gradient on DEAE-cellulose column did not clearly separate both activities. Phosphorylation of cardiac microsomal component, "phospholamban" (molecular weight = 22,000), was inhibited almost completely by the saturating amounts of protein kinase modulator. This inhibition of phospholamban phosphorylation by protein kinase modulator was accompanied by a decreased Ca uptake rate that had been stimulated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase. These findings indicate that protein kinase modulator is functional in controlling the cAMP-dependent protein kinase-catalyzed phosphorylation of phospholamban and the rate of calcium transport, lending further support for the previously proposed mechanism, in which phospholamban is assumed to serve as a regulator of calcium transport in cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum.

Low- and high-affinity binding sites for cyclic GMP were found to be associated with the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (ATP: protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37) from human tonsillar lymphocytes, but neither of them was identical with the cyclic AMP binding site. The enzyme activated by cyclic GMP phosphorylated the same site of calf thymus H2b histone as the cyclic AMP activated enzyme; however, more complex kinetics of activation were found with cyclic GMP. Two classes of cyclic GMP binding site were demonstrated by kinetic analysis of cyclic [3H]GMP binding in the enzyme preparations eluted by 0.1 M potassium phosphate (pH 7.0) from DEAE cellulose. The high-affinity cyclic GMP binding site (Kd about 4 . 10(-8) M) belonged to some complex form of the protein kinase, as evidenced by the mutual inhibition of cyclic AMP binding and high affinity cyclic GMP binding. However, the high-affinity cyclic GMP binding site disappeared on Sephadex G-100 gel chromatography of the enzyme preparation, whereas the cyclic AMP binding activity was recovered quantitively as separate fractions. The low-affinity cyclic GMP binding site (Kd 2--5 . 10(-6) M) was demonstrated by the inhibitory effect of 10(-5) M cyclic GMP on cyclic AMP binding in each cyclic AMP binding fraction obtained by gel chromatography. However, cyclic AMP did not inhibit the binding of cyclic GMP to the low-affinity binding site.

Dopa-decarboxylase, acetylcholinesterase, sodium plus potassium stimulated adenosine triphosphatase (Na+ + K+-ATPase), and membrane-bound protein kinase were compared in the erythrocytes of patients with Huntington's disease and normal controls. All these enzymes also exist in the basal ganglia. The Na+ +K+-ATPase level was elevated (p less than 0.05) in Huntington's disease, while no significant changes were observed in the other enzymes. This finding is consistent with the concept that Huntington's disease is associated with a general membrane abnormality.

The effect of dopamine on hemodynamics (CO, AoPm, TPR, SV, SW, CVP, PAPm, PAEDP), microcirculation (MBF, PS-product) and renal function (VU, CKI, CNa, CK, Cosm, TcH2O) was studied in 8 patients with hypnotic drug poisoning. With increasing doses of dopamine, cardiac output and heart rate increased and the peripheral resistance decreased. An augmentation of stroke volume and left ventricular stroke work was observed in the low dose range only (200--400 mug/min). With increasing doses, central venous pressure as well as mean pulmonary artery pressure and enddiastolic pulmonary artery pressure decreased. No vasoconstriction was found in muscle tissue vessels even with large doses of dopamine. This is explained by the vasoplegic properties of hypnotic drugs. In circulatory shock associated with hypnotic drug poisoning, dopamine develops only minor pressure effects in contrast to its action in circulatory shock of cardiogenic or septic shock origin. High doses of dopamine result in a significant increase in heart rate, without concomitant increase in stroke volume and blood pressure. Therefore the dosage of dopamine should not exceed 400 mug/min in these cases. A combination with small doses of norepinephrine (10--20 mug/min) seems to be more effective. Renal function tests showed variable expansion of urine volume, glomerular filtration rate, and clearances of sodium, potassium and osmotic substances. Therapy with dopamine might increase the renal elimination rate of hypnotic drugs.
