Guanylate cyclase, cGMP phosphodiesterase and protein kinase activities were determined in kidneys of developing and adult rats. Guanylate cyclase activities of crude kidney homogenates, 100,000 x g supernatant and pellet of 7- and 21-day-old and adult rats were determined (Table I). In the kidneys of 7-day-old rats activity was 162% of adult controls in the homogenates (P less than .001), 144% in the soluble (P less than .005) and 308% in the particulate fraction (P less than .001). In 3-week-old rats activity was still significantly higher at 144% in the homogenate (P less than 0.02) and at 225% in the particulate (P less than .001). Phosphodiesterase activity for cGMP was 7488 +/- 831 pmol cGMP/mg protein . min in 1-week-old and 7674 +/- 1120 in 3-week-old rats vs. 4042 +/- 122 in the adults (P less than .025) (Table II). Chromatography on Sephadex G-200 showed two peaks of cGMP-stimulatable protein kinase in both the adult and newborn kidney and in addition a minor peak of cGMP-stimulatable kinase in the newborn kidny only (Fig. 2).

Both the microvillus and basal-lateral membrane components of intestinal epithelial cells were found to contain endogenous cyclic nucleotide-dependent protein kinases and their endogenous protein substrates. The phosphorylation of either membrane component using [gamma-32P]ATP as substrate, occurred very rapidly, reaching maximal levels at 1 min. Both cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP were shown to stimulate the phosphorylation of the microvillus and basal-lateral membranes; the approximate concentrations of cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP required for half-maximal stimulation of phosphorylation were 2 x 10(-7) M and 1.7 x 10(-8) M, respectively, for the basal-lateral membranes, and 2 x 10(-7) M and 3.2 x 10(-8) M, respectively, for the microvillus membranes. Although both membrane components were phosphorylated by an endogenous protein kinase, the microvillus membrane was consistently phosphorylated to a greater extent at maximally effective concentrations of either cyclic nucleotide. The microvillus and basal-lateral membranes were also found to contain a phosphoprotein phosphatase; however, the rate of removal of [32P]phosphate from the microvillus membrane was found to be more rapid. Neither cyclic AMP nor cyclic GMP altered the activity of the enzyme in either membrane. The present results together with earlier studies are compatible with the possibility that the regulation of water and electrolyte transport in the small intestine by cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP may be mediated through modulation of the phosphorylation of protein components of the microvillus and basal-lateral membranes.

1. The ouabain-insensitive Na efflux in barnacle muscle fibres is promptly stimulated by injection of cyclic GMP. The minimal effective injected concentration is found to be about 10(-7) M. This effect of cyclic GMP could not be mimicked by injecting 5'-GMP. 2. External application of ouabain (10(-4) M) to fibres not pretreated with ouabain during the stimulatory response to cyclic GMP causes some inhibition of the Na efflux indicating that cyclic GMP does not cause appreciable inhibition of the Na:K pump. 3. The magnitude of the stimulatory response to injected cyclic GMP depends on the external Ca2+ concentration, as well as pHe but not on the Na+, K+ or Mg2+ concentration. It also depends on pHi, since acidification of HCO3-containing ASW leads to a greater enhancement of the response to cyclic GMP than is observed with acidified HERPES-ASW. 4. Stabilization of myoplasmic pCa by injecting 100 mM-EGTA before or after cyclic GMP fails to alter the magnitude of the response to the nucleotide. Enrichment of the fibre with Mg2+ at the time of injection of cyclic GMP leads to a reduced response. No change in response, however, is seen when the internal free Mg concentration is suddenly reduced by injecting 0.05 M-pyrophosphate with cyclic GMP. 5. Injection of cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinase stimulatory modulator before cyclic GMP fails to enhance the response to the nucleotide. The same is true of the phosphodiesterase inhibitor protein. However pre-injection of 10(-2) M-papaverine enhances the response to a subsequent injection of 10(-3) M-cyclic GMP. 6. Injection of pure protein kinase inhibitor (1.6 x 10(-4) M) before 10(-3) M-cyclic GMP reduces the response to the nucleotide. 7. The argument is put forward that injected cyclic GMP stimulates the ouabain-insensitive Na efflux mainly by activating cyclic AMP-protein kinase rather than cyclic GMP-proton kinase.

1. A study has been made in single barnacle muscle fibres of the effect of micro-injected pure protein kinase inhibitor (PKI) on the response of the Na efflux to injection of cyclic AMP and external acidification. 2. (i) Injection into fibres of 1.6 x 10(-4) M-pure PKI is without effect on the resting Na efflux. (ii) Injection of 1.6 x 10(4) M-pure PKI before 0.03 M-cyclic AMP causes a marked reduction in the magnitude of the response of the Na efflux to the nucleotide. The same is true when 10(-4) M-cyclic AMP is injected after PKI. (iii) Injection of partially pure catalytic subunits causes a sustained stimulation of the ouabain-insensitive Na efflux, which is almost completely reversed by injecting PKI. (iv) Injection of 100 mM-EGTA before PKI fails to alter the lowered response of the ouabain-insensitive Na efflux to injection of 10(-4) M-cyclic AMP. (v) Ouabain (10(-4) M) when applied following the injection of 10(-4) M-cyclic AMP causes a drastic fall in the stimulated Na efflux. 3. (i) Injection of 1.6 x 10(-4) M-pure PKI before or after external acidification fails to abolish or reduce the stimulatory response to acidification. (ii) Injection of 1.6 x 10(-4) M-pure PKI before acidification practically abolishes the response of the ouabain-insensitive Na efflux to 0.03 M-cyclic AMP in the presence of acidification. (iii) Radioimmunoassay of total cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP content in single fibres before and after acidification shows no appreciable alteration in nucleotide content following acidificiation. (iv) Injection of 100 mM-EGTA before acidification enhances the stimulatory response to acidification. (v) External application of Dantrolene (10(-5) M) fails to alter the size of the stimulatory response to acidification. 4. (i) Prior external application of 5 x 10(-4) M-benzolamide results in a marked reduction in the magnitude of the response of the ouabain-insensitive Na efflux to the injection of 3 x 10(-4) M-cyclic AMP. (ii) Benzolamide totally abolishes the response of the ouabain-insensitive Na efflux to the injection of catalytic subunits. 5. The evidence brought forward is compatible with the view that (a) The mechanism by which cyclic AMP stimulates the Na efflux involves activation by cyclic AMP of the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase system, and hence release of the catalytic subunit, and (b) the mechanism by which external acidification leads to stimulation of the Na efflux involves activation of a benzolamide-sensitive system, possibly carbonic anhydrase, rather than the adenyl cyclase system. The actions of cyclic AMP and catalytic subunits on the Na efflux are closely linked to activation of the benzolamide sensitive system.

Subcellular distribution of the enzymes related to the cellular action of antidiuretic hormone was studied in bovine renal medulla. The highest activity of vasopressin-stimulated adenylate cyclase was found in plasma membranes. The basal activity increased two times above homogenate while vasopressin-stimulated and NaF-stimulated activities both increased five times. Adenylate cyclase activity was present also in other particulate fractions, but it was not significantly stimulated by vasopressin. Cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase was predominantly located in the cytosol when assayed with 0.5 mM cyclic AMP or with 5 muM cyclic AMP. However, with the latter concentration of cyclic AMP more activity remained associated with the particulate fractions and was more inhibited by theophylline. The highest cyclic AMP-stimulated protein kinase activity occurred in the cytosol. Protein kinase activity present in other subcellular fractions was not markedly stimulated by cyclic AMP. Protein phosphatase activity was highest in cytosol when assayed using 32P-histones, 32P-plasma membrane proteins, and 32P-cytoslic proteins. The activity was unaffected by 10-6M to 10-4M cyclic AMP or cyclic GMP. The activity was completely inhibited by 10mM ZnSO4 and 10mM CuSO4; 10mM NaF inhibited the activity by approximately 14%. The enzymes related to the cellular action of vasopressin are predominatly localized in the cytosol except for the vasopressin-sensitive adenylate cyclase which is plasma membrane bound. To mediate the effect of antidiuretic hormone and act on the luminal plasma membrane these soluble enzymes and their substrates should be compartmentalized, possibly by a system of cytoplasmic microtubules.

Cyclic nucleotide-stimulable protein kinase (EC 1.7.1.37) has been studied in crude extracts from the central nervous system of the tobacco hornworm Manduca sexta (Lepidoptera: Sphingidae). The insect kinase was fulfhydryl-sensitive and required Mg-2+ for optimal activity. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of supernatants demonstrated the presence of multiple kinases in the larval nerve cord. At low concentrations, cyclic AMP was a much more potent activator of soluble and particulate activities than was cyclic GMP. The specific activity of coluble kinase and the magnitude of its activations by cyclic AMP were greater in the adult than in the larval central nervous system. The exogenous protein substrate specificity of the insect enzyme was similar to that of rat brain kinase with the sole exception that protamine was more readily phosphorylated than histone by nerve cord kinase. It was observed that cyclic AMP lowered the Km of Manduca sexta kinase for ATP, a phenomenon which is apparently nervous tissue=specific in mammals. An effective inhibitor of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase was prepared from the larval central nervous system.

The initial step in TSH action reflects binding of the hormone to specific receptor sites on the plasma membrane. Such binding has been studied using plasma membranes, homogenates, isolated thyroid cells grown in culture, and thyroid slices. 3-H- and iodinated TSH preparations have been used; the latter have been prepared using both chloramine-T and lactoperoxidase. Some of the discrepancies reported in the literature might reflect the different thyroid and hormone preparations and the variable incubation conditions which have been used. In general, good correlation exists between binding of TSH and activation of adenylate cyclase in thyroid plasma membranes. Data is reviewed related to activation of protein kinase in intact thyroid cells by TSH. Although there is impressive evidence for cyclic AMP mediation of effects of TSH on the thyroid, some data that are inconsistent with this concept are considered, especially in relationship to 32-P incorporation into phospholipid. The role of cyclic GMP in thyroid function is discussed.

Three protein kinases (ATP:protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37) were detected when the soluble fraction of rabbit kidney medulla was chromatographed on DEAE-cellulose with a linear NaC1 gradient. The first two kinases eluted (Peak 1 and Peak II) were cyclic-AMP-dependent, wheras Peak III was cyclic-AMP-independent. A procedure was developed to separate the catalytic subunit of Peak II cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase (representing the bulk of the histone kinase activity) from Peak III protein kinase. In contrast to the catalytic subunit, Peak III protein kinase phosphorylated casein more rapidly than histone. Peak III was insensitive to the heat-stable protein inhibitor of cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinases and appeared to have a higher requirement for ATP than did the catalytic subunit. Peak III catalyzed the conversion of glycogen synthase (UDPglucose:glycogen alpha-4-glucosyltransferase, EC 2.4.1.11) from the I (glucose-6-phosphate-independent) to the D (glucose-6-phosphate-dependent) form. This conversion was dependent on Mg-2+ and ATP and was unaffected by cyclic AMP, cyclic GMP, or the protein inhibitor. Glycogen synthase I in the soluble fraction of kidney medulla could be converted to the D form by endogenous glycogen synthase I kinase if Mg-2+ and ATP were added. Most of this glycogen synthase I kinase activity was unaffected by cyclic AMP or by the protein inhibitor, suggesting that Peak III may be of major importance in the regulation of glycogen synthase in vivo.

Canges in relative levels of protein kinases (ATP:protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37) stimulated by either guanosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cyclic-GMP) or adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cyclic-AMP) were examined in extracts of the lung, heart, brain, and liver from guinea pigs at various stages of development. The level of cyclic-GMP-dependent protein kinase in the fetal lung, which was found to be the highest of any mammalian tissue samples examined, declined during development. On the other hand, the level of cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase in the same extracts, which was initially lower than that of the cyclic-GMP-dependent enzyme, increased during development and reached a level higher than that of the cyclic-GMP-dependent enzyme when the animals reached maturity. This reciprocal change in level of the two classes of protein kinases in developing lung was demonstrated further by chromatographing the extracts on Sephadex G-200 and quantitating the activity of the isolated enzymes. A decrease in the ratio of the two classes of protein kinases qualitatively similar to that seen in the lung was also noted in the developing heart. An increase in the ratio of the enzymes, however, was seen in the developing brain. Unlike in the lung, heart, and brain, no change in relative level and ratio of the enzymes was noted in liver during development. These results suggest that a balance between the effects of cyclic-GMP-dependent and cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinases may be important in normal development of certain tissues.

Guanosine 3':5'-monophosphate(cyclic GMP)-dependent protein kinase which catalyzes the phosphorylation of histone was purified about 200-fold from the soluble fraction of pig lung by pH 5.5 precipitation, DEAE-cellulose column chromatography, and Sephadex G-200 gel filtration. The apparent Ka values for guanosine 3':5'-monophosphate and adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate were determined to be about 17 and 360 nM, respectively. Mg2+ was essential for the activity exhibiting biphasic stimulation behavior and neither Mn2+ nor Ca2+ could substitute for Mg2+. However, these divalent ions markedly inhibited the protein kinase activity stimulated by cyclic GMP in the presence of Mg2+.
