Two protein kinase activities have been separated from the supernatants of homogenized human blood platelets by DEAE cellulose chromatography. One of them (peak I enzyme) is an efficient stimulator of the uptake of Ca2+ into isolated membrane vesicles in the presence of cyclic AMP and ATP. The second (peak II enzyme), although equally active towards histone, exerts only about one third of the activity of the peak I enzyme. The stimulation of Ca2+ uptake is accompanied by the phosphorylation of a membrane protein with an apparent molecular weight of 22 000, which appears to play an essential role in the regulation of the intracellular Ca2+ level and hence of platelet activity.

When myofibrils from rat hearts were dissolved in concentrated salt solutions and reprecipitated by dilution, they contained both protein kinase (partly cyclic 3':5'-AMP-dependent) and protein phosphatase activities. Troponin-I was the major protein to be phosphorylated by the endogenous myofibril-associated kinase and by added protein kinase. Approximately 1 mole of phosphate per mole of troponin-I was incorporated from radioactive ATP, but the extent of troponin-I phosphorylation could be varied experimentally. An inverse correlation was found between protein phosphorylation and the maximum Ca2+-stimulated myofibrillar Mg2+-ATPase activity, while the amout of calcium required for half-maximum activation was proportional to the extent of protein phosphorylation. The changes in Mg2+-ATPase activity produced in vitro by protein phosphorylation were reproduced in isolated perfused rat hearts treated for short periods with L-noradrenaline (10(-6)M). The changes in myofibrillar function brought about as the result of the phosphorlyation by cAMP-dependent protein kinase suggest that the contractile response is desensitized in order to cope with the rise in intracellular Ca2+ which results from the action of catecholamines on cardiac ventricular cells.

We studied the developmental changes of soluble and membrane-bound protein kinases (EC 2.7.1.37) in rat brain and found that the elution profiles from a DEAE-cellulose column by NaCl of adenosine-3':5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP) dependent protein kinase from cytosol were not significantly different in newborn (0.19 M NaCl) vs. mature (0.21 M NaCl). In addition, there was little change in Kd for cyclic AMP binding of newborn and mature soluble enzyme. In contrast, using endogenous protein as the phosphate acceptor, cyclic AMP dependent and calcium-dependent protein kinases from brain synaptic membranes of mature rats were significantly higher than that of newborn rats.

Various mechanisms have been proposed for beta-adrenergically mediated relaxation of smooth muscle. All theories suggest the involvement of cyclic AMP as a second messenger: beta-agonists stimulate adenylate cyclase which converts ATP to cyclic AMP and protein kinase, activated by cyclic AMP, is then thought to catalyse a protein phosphorylation that leads to a reduction in free Ca2+, thus effecting relaxation. How this last step is accomplished is much debated, but the following possibilities are currently considered as the mechanisms responsible for cyclic AMP-induced reduction of cytoplasmic Ca2+: activation of a Ca2+-ATPase in the plasma and/or sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes which lowers cytoplasmic [Ca2+] in a direct manner or stimulation of (Na+-K+)ATPase in the cell membrane which may indirectly effect Ca2+ extrusion. Among the hypotheses suggested, those of Ca2+ sequestration by the sarcoplasmic reticulum and of Ca2+ extrusion across the cell membrane are consistent with each other if it is assumed that both processes are effected by a cyclic AMP-sensitive Ca2+-ATPase. However, quite a different mechanism is implied by involving the Na+-K+ pump and Na+-Ca2+ exchange carrier. In this report, we present evidence that suggests intracellular Ca2+ sequestration is the mechanism involved.

Cardiac microsomes were incubated with [gamma-32P]ATP and a cardiac adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP)-dependent protein kinase in the presence of ethylene glycol bis(bets-aminoethyl ether)-N,N'-tetraacetic acid. After solubilization in sodium dodecyl sulfate and fractionation by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, a single microsomal protein component of approximately 22,000 daltons was found to bind most of the 32P label. The 32P labeling of this component increased several fold when NaF was included in the incubation medium. No other component of cardiac microsomes, including sarcoplasmic reticulum ATPase protein, contained significant amounts of 32P label. This 22,000-dalton phosphoprotein formed by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase had stability characteristics of a phosphoester rather than an acyl phosphate. Washing of microsomes with buffered KCl did not decrease the amount of 32P labeling to the 22,000-dalton protein, suggesting that this protein is associated with the membranes of sarcoplasmic reticulum rather than being a contaminant from other soluble proteins. The 22,000-dalton protein was susceptible to trypsin. Brief digestion with trypsin in the presence of 1 M sucrose did not significantly affect microsomal calcium transport activity, but prevented both subsequent phosphorylation of the 22,000-dalton protein and stimulation of calcium uptake by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, suggesting that this protein is a modulator of the calcium pump. These results are consistent with previous findings (Kirchberger, M.A., Tada, M., and Katz, A.M. (1974) J. Biol. Chem. 249, 6166-6173; Tada, M., Kirchberger, M.A., Repke, D.I., and Katz, A.M. (1974) J. Biol. Chem. 249, 6174-6180) that cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase-catalyzed phosphorylation is associated with stimulation of calcium transport in the cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum, and further indicate that this phosphorylation occurs at a component of low mass (22,000 daltons) of the cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum which, while separable from the calcium transport ATPase protein (100,000 daltons) by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, has the ability to regulate calcium transport by the cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum.

Light density membranes derived from the "microsomal" fraction of rat skeletal muscle contained an endogenous protein kinase which catalyzed the phosphorylation of an endogenous membrane substrate. No other membrane fraction contained any significant protein kinase activity. The optimal specific activity of the enzyme in these membranes was 350 pmol/mg/min. The endogenous muscle membrane protein kinase required magnesium, was stimulated by micromolar concentrations of calcium, had a pH optimum between 7.0 and 7.5, and demonstrated a K-m for ATP of 2.6 times 10 minus 5 M. The enzyme was markedly heat labile and demonstrated a linear Arrhenius plot with an apparent energy of activation of 12,100 cal/mol. There was no stimulation by cyclic nucleotides; and neither monovalent cations nor various neurotransmitters exerted any effect. It is presently unclear where the membranes exhibiting protein phosphorylation are localized within the muscle fiber. Enzyme markers suggest that these membranes are not derived from sarcolemma or sarcoplasmic reticulum but may originate in transverse tubules. The membrane phosphorylation was largely confined to a polypeptide with an apparent molecular weight of 28,000. Phosphorylation could also be detected in a lower molecular weight substrate as well as two polypeptides with apparent molecular weights of 95,000 and 56,000. The M-r-28,000 endogenous protein kinase substrate was isolated by preparative gel electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulfate. High voltage electrophoresis of a partial acid hydrolysate of the phosphorylated M-r-28,000 substrate identified the phosphate bond to be that of phosphoserine. The amino acid composition of the substrate was neither strongly acidic nor basic. It had a high content of glycine, glutamic acid, serine, and lysine. Hydrophobic residues constituted only 45% of the total composition. Following muscle denervation for 10 days, there was a significant decrease in the amount of the M-r-28,000 polypeptide as well as the extent of phosphorylation.

Cardiac microsomes contained an intrinsic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP)-dependent protein kinase which stimulated phosphorylation of serine residue(s) of microsomal protein. The phosphorylated residues were associated with a microsomal protein component of 20,000 molecular weight as determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Intrinsic phosphoprotein phosphatase activity of the microsomal membrane resulted in rapid dephosphorylation of these residues. Microsomes phosphorylated in the presence of cyclic AMP (10(-6) M) exhibited enhanced calcium uptake. We conclude that: 1) cardiac microsomes contain intrinsic cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase(s) which phosphorylate a specific microsomal protein and phosphoprotein phosphatase(s) capable of dephosphorylating this protein, 2) phosphorylation of this protein enhances calcium uptake, 3) reversible phosphorylation of microsomal membrane may be an important mechanism for the regulation of calcium uptake of cardiac microsomes by cyclic AMP.

Synaptic vesicles have a Ca(2+)-dependent protein kinase system that may play a role in mediating Ca(2+)-stimulated neurotransmitter release and vesicle function. Calcium's ability to initiate norepinephrine release and protein phosphorylation in synaptic vesicle preparations was shown to be stimulated by the presence of an endogenous heat-stable vesicle protein fraction. The heat stability and characteristics of this endogenous vesicle fraction were similar to those of calmodulin (Ca(2+)-dependent regular protein) isolated from rat and bovine brain. Calmodulin, like endogenous heat-stable vesicle factor, restored calcium's ability to stimulate vesicle neurotransmitter release and protein kinase activity. Calmodulin-like vesicle protein and purified calmodulin were also equally effective in stimulating cyclic nucleotide-dependent phosphodiesterase, further indicating that these two proteins are functionally equivalent. Depolarization-dependent Ca(2+) uptake in intact synaptosomes simultaneously stimulated release of neurotransmitter and phosphorylation of particular synaptic vesicle proteins that were shown in the isolated vesicle preparation to be dependent on Ca(2+) and calmodulin. The results suggest that calcium's effects on neurotransmitter release and presynaptic nerve terminal protein phosphorylation may be mediated by endogenous calmodulin-like proteins.

Synaptosomes and axons from squid were incubated with [gamma-(32)P]ATP or [(32)P]orthophosphate and specific, distinct proteins were found to be labeled in each preparation. In axoplasm, only the major 200,000 M(r) neurofilament protein and a specific protein of approximately 400,000 M(r) were labeled, as reported previously [Pant, H. C., Shecket, G., Gainer, H. & Lasek, R. J. (1978) J. Cell Biol. 78, R23-R27]. These results were independent of whether the cosubstrates were (32)PO(4) (2-) or [gamma-(32)P]ATP. However, synaptosomes lacked the 200,000 M(r) neurofilament protein and several lower molecular weight proteins were labeled instead, the most prominent being a 47,000 M(r) species. [gamma-(32)P]ATP was much more effective in labeling the 47,000 M(r) species than (32)PO(4) (2-). Synaptosomes also contained a distinct 250,000 M(r) protein species which, however, was not labeled. The protein kinase activity in synaptosomes was sensitive to various pharmacological agents, depending on whether the labeled phosphate came directly from ATP or orthophosphate. Carbonyl cyanide p-trifluoromethoxyphenyl hydrazone, a mitochondrial H(+) uncoupler, almost completely inhibited incorporation of (32)P into protein with (32)PO(4) (2-) as cosubstrate, as expected, but produced only 32% inhibition with [gamma-(32)P]ATP as cosubstrate. The activity could be augmented by incubating synaptosomes in a calcium-free medium and could be suppressed by increasing intrasynaptosomal Ca(2+) with A23187, a Ca(2+) ionophore. The latter effect was more prominent with (32)PO(4) (2-) than with [gamma-(32)P]ATP as cosubstrate. Depolarizing agents such as veratridine and high K(+) also suppressed activity, and the veratridine effect was completely reversed by tetrodotoxin or by omission of Ca(2+) when [gamma-(32)P]ATP was used, and partially reversed when (32)PO(4) (2-) was used. We conclude that the morphological transformation of an axon into a terminal is accompanied by significant changes in protein and phospho-protein composition that may be related to synaptic transmission.

The role of Ca2+ ions in alpha-adrenergic activation of hepatic phosphorylase was studied using isolated rat liver parenchymal cells. The activation of glucose release and phosphorylase by the alpha-adrenergic agonist phenylephrine was impaired in cells in which calcium was depleted by ethylene glycol bis(beta-aminoethyl ether)N,N'-tetraacetic acid (EGTA) treatment and restored by calcium addition, whereas the effects of a glycogenolytically equivalent concentration of glucagon on these processes were unaffected. EGTA treatment also reduced basal glucose release and phosphorylase alpha activity, but did not alter the level of cAMP or the protein kinase activity ratio (-cAMP/+cAMP) or impair viability as determined by trypan blue exclusion, ATP levels, or gluconeogenic rates. The effect of EGTA on basal phosphorylase and glucose output was also rapidly reversed by Ca2+, but not by other ions. Phenylephrine potentiated the ability of low concentrations of calcium to reactivate phosphorylase in EGTA-treated cells. The divalent cation inophore A23187 rapidly increased phosphorylase alpha and glucose output without altering the cAMP level, the protein kinase activity ratio, and the levels of ATP, ADP, or AMP, The effects of the ionophore were abolished in EGTA-treated cells and restored by calcium addition. Phenylephrine rapidly stimulated 45Ca uptake and exchange in hepatocytes, but did not affect the cell content of 45Ca at late time points. A glycogenolytically equivalent concentration of glucagon did not affect these processes, whereas higher concentrations were as effective as phenylephrine. The effect of phenylephrine on 45Ca uptake was blocked by the alpha-adrenergic antagonist phenoxybenzamine, was unaffected by the beta blocker propranolol, and was not mimicked by isoproterenol. The following conclusions are drawn: (a) alpha-adrenergic activation of phosphorylase and glucose release in hepatocytes is more dependent on calcium than is glucagon activation of these processes; (b) variations in liver cell calcium can regulate phosphorylase alpha levels and glycogenolysis; (c) calcium fluxes across the plasma membrane are stimulated more by phenylephrine than by a glycogenolytically equivalent concentration of glucagon. It is proposed that alpha-adrenergic agonists activate phosphorylase by increasing the cytosolic concentration of Ca2+ ions, thus stimulating phosphorylase kinase.
