Sarcoplasmic reticulum fragments isolated from dog cardiac muscle possess a calcium-accumulating system associated with a series of enzymes linked to glycogenolysis. These enzymes include: adenylate cyclase, cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, phosphorylase b kinase, phosphorylase (b/a, 30/1),"debrancher" enzyme, and glycogen (0.3 to 0.7 mg/mg of protein). The sarcoplasmic reticulum preparation produced glucose 1-phosphate and glucose from either endogenous or exogenous glycogen. Both the calcium-accumulating and glycogenolytic enzymes sediment in a single peak at 33% sucrose on a linear continous sucrose density gradient, and the complex remains intact throughout repeated washing. Glycogen particles appear to be associated with the sarcoplasmic reticulum in situ as well as in the isolated microsomal fraction. The sarcoplasmic reticulum-glycogenolytic complex, monitored by a linked enzyme spectrophotometric assay, shows several features: (a) activation of phosphorylase activity to peak rate occurs over a very rapid time course which cannot be duplicated using combinations of purified enzymes; (b) activation is inhibited by protein kinase inhibitor; (c) phosphorylase b functions as in the purified form with respect to AMP (Km, 0.3 mM); (d) in the presence of limiting amounts of glycogen, optimal phosphorylase b activity in the sarcoplasmic reticulum requires the presence of debrancher, and the activity is sensitive to inhibitors of that enzyme such as Tris, which suggests the possiblity that the enzymes bear a specific structual relationship to the glycogen present. Phosphorylase b leads to a activation in the sarcoplasmic reticulum was completely resistant to ethylene glycol bis(beta-aminoethyl either)-N,N'-tetraacetic acid (EGTA). Inhibition of calcium accumulation by or release of bound calcium from sarcoplasmic reticulum by X537A (RO 2-2985) did not alter the EGTA resistance. These results suggest that cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum is a complex organelle containing functions that may be related to excitation-contraction coupling and intermediary metabolism.

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.

Activity of RNA-dependent DNA polymerase (RDDP) from avian myeloblastosis virus (AMV), either in purified form or in virus lysates, was increased by phosphorylation. Stability of RDDP in lysates buffered with phosphate was much greater (no loss of activity in 48 hours at 4 degrees) than that in lysates buffered with Tris-Cl (76% loss). Activity lost in the Tris-buffered extracts was completely restored by phosphorylation. The findings suggested that AMV RDDP activity is influenced by the degree of phosphorylation of the enzyme or enzyme-associated proteins and that this chemical modification is mediated by protein phosphokinase and phosphoprotein phosphatase present in crude extracts of purified AMV. Application of these results provided the basis of procedures whereby RDDP can be recovered in significantly higher yield and purity than formerly.

Properties and partial purification of the bovine adrenal cholesterol esterase from the 100000 X g supernatant fraction were investigated. Variations of the enzyme activity with time-dependent (enzymatic) and time-dependent (non enzymatic) effects have been demonstrated. Mg2 has been proved to inhibit the enzyme activity by a non-enzymatic effect in 50mM Tris/HCl buffer, pH 7.4. A time-dependent inactivation of the cholesterol esterase has been observed in the same buffer. The enzyme could be protected from this enzymatic inactivation by its substrate, cholesterol oleate. cAMP, ATP and Mg2 cuase a time-dependent stimulation of the enzyme in 50mM Tris/HCl buffer, pH 7.4. This result suggests that corticotropin activates the soluble cholesterol esterase from bovine adrenals via cAMP-dependent protein kinase. This view is strengthened by the incorporation of 32P radioactivity from [gamma-32P] ATP into the protein fraction of the 100,000 X g supernatant. The protein-bound 32P radioactivity could be co-purified with the enzyme activity during the partial purification of the soluble cholesterol esterase.

Rat kidney plasma membranes prepared by the method of FITZPATRICK et al. (J Biol. Chem. 244, 3561, 1969) show protein kinase activity as well as specific cAMP binding activity (diss. const. 1.3 x 10-9 M). However, no stimulation of kinase activity by cAMP is observed in presence of exogenous substrates (e.g. histone) and only poor stimulation with endogenous substrates in the membrane could be shown. At high ionic strength (1 M NaCl) cAMP independent protein kinase activity can be solubilized. Low ionic strength buffer (1 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.4 1 mM EDTA) and non-ionic detergents (Lubrol PX, Lubrol WX and Triton X 100) are able to solubilize both protein kinase activity and cAMP binding activity. Protein kinase activity seemed to be only loosely associated with the membrane, whereas cAMP binding protein appears to be more firmly fixed into the membrane structure. In addition we have found that membranes serve as a good substrate for cytosol protein kinase (s) and Ca-ion concentration influences the effect of cAMP on protein kinase activity. Dependent on the increase of Ca-ion concentration the effect of cAMP on protein kinase changes from activation to inhibition.

Cyclic nucleotide dependent protein kinase has been extracted wiht Tris or Lubrol PX from purified rod outer segments (ROS) of bovine retina. The activity of the enzyme is unaffected by light but is stimulated by either cyclic guanosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cGMP) or cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP). Most of the solubilized enzyme elutes from DEAE-cellulose with about 0.18 M NaCl (type II protein kinase). An endogenous 30,000 molecular weight protein of the soluble fraction of ROS as well as exogenous histone are phosphorylated by the protein kinase in a cyclic nucleotide dependent manner. The Tris-extracted enzyme can be reassociated in the presence of Mg2+ with ROS membranes that are depleted of protein kinase activity. The reassociated protein kinase is insensitive to exogenous cyclic nucleotides, and it catalyzes the phosphorylation of the membrane protein, bleached rhodopsin. While the soluble and membrane-associated protein kinases may be interchangeable, they appear to be modulated by different biological signals; soluble protein kinase activity is increased by cyclic nucleotides whereas membrane-bound activity is enhanced when rhodopsin is bleached by light.

The cAMP-dependent regulation of ion channels was studied by using the whole-cell configuration of the patch clamp technique. In isolated cardiac ventricular myocytes, the beta-adrenergically regulated Cl- current (ICl) exhibited an unusual dependence on Na+, such that replacement of extracellular Na+ with compounds such as tetramethylammonium, choline, Tris, or N-methyl-D-glucamine resulted in a reduction in current amplitude without changing the reversal potential. Replacement of extracellular Na+ with tetramethylammonium also reduced the magnitude of the beta-adrenergically enhanced Ca2+ current and delayed rectifier K+ current, suggesting that removal of Na+ was affecting the cAMP pathway that regulates all three currents. Replacement of extracellular Na+ also reduced ICl that was stimulated by (i) direct activation of adenylate cyclase with forskolin, (ii) inhibition of phosphodiesterase with 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine, (iii) exposure to the membrane-permeable cAMP derivative 8-bromoadenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate, or (iv) direct phosphorylation of the channel with protein kinase A catalytic subunit. This suggests that the Na+ dependence is at a point beyond the activation of protein kinase A. The Na+ dependence of ICl regulation could not be explained by changes in intracellular Ca2+. However, the sensitivity of the ICl to changes in extracellular Na+ depended significantly on the intracellular Na+ concentration, suggesting that intracellular Na+ plays an important role in the cAMP-dependent regulation of ion channels.

To investigate the effect of Mn2+ on pancreatic protein phosphorylation, we incubated rat pancreatic cytosol in Tris buffer (pH 7.5) with [gamma-32P]ATP. Analysis using sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and autoradiography revealed a single protein (p98), with an Mr of 98,000 and a pI of 6.4-6.5, which was phosphorylated in a dose-dependent manner by Mn2+. A threshold effect was observed at 35 microM, and maximal effect at 1.1 mM Mn2+. Ca2+ and calmodulin (CaM) did not cause p98 phosphorylation, but Mg2+ (10 mM) caused faint non-specific phosphorylation of p98. Ca2+ (0.03-3 mM) and CaM (1-10 micrograms/ml) significantly enhanced, whereas trifluoperazine (TFP) and Mg2+ inhibited Mn(2+)-stimulated p98 phosphorylation. Under the above incubation conditions, Mn(2+)-stimulated protein phosphorylation of p98 was also observed in isolated pancreatic acini, but not in cytosols from liver or kidney. Partial purification of p98 and amino acid sequencing of the protein band corresponding to p98 indicated complete sequence homology with rat elongation factor 2 (EF-2). Furthermore, the combination of Ca2+, Mg2+ and CaM, which is known to induce the phosphorylation of EF-2, mimicked the actions of Mn2+. Inasmuch as EF-2 is the major substrate for CaM-dependent protein kinase III (CaM-PK III), these studies suggest that in the pancreatic acinar cell Mn2+/CaM protein kinase activity is mediated via CaM-PK III and the Mn2+ participates in the regulation of this enzyme in the pancreas.

Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) treatment is effective in preventing or delaying the onset of various genetic and induced disorders of mice and rats. Associated with the beneficial therapeutic effects exerted by action of this steroid is the development of hepatomegaly. To determine whether the changes associated with hepatomegaly also involve alterations in activities of tissue enzymes, we evaluated the effects of DHEA (0.45% in food, w/w) on hepatic protein kinases, phosphatases, and lipogenic enzymes in mice of various strains. The rates of fatty acid and cholesterol syntheses also were evaluated. DHEA administration resulted in profound changes in the sodium dodecylsulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis patterns of endogenous radiophosphorylated proteins obtained by incubation of liver homogenates with (gamma-32P]ATP. These changes were dependent upon the medium used for homogenization. Thus, when homogenates of liver tissue of DHEA-treated mice were prepared in Tris buffer containing sucrose (0.25 M) there was a marked decrease in phosphorylation of the proteins of relative molecular weight approximately 116,000 (Mr approximately 116,000), approximately 82,000, approximately 80,000, approximately 58,000, approximately 56,000, approximately 48,000, approximately 34,000, and approximately 31,000 compared with controls. With liver homogenates of DHEA-treated mice prepared in Tris buffer alone, there was a marked increase in phosphorylation of the proteins of Mr approximately 70,000, approximately 49,000, approximately 34,000, approximately 31,000, and 28,000 compared with controls. Moreover, the specific activity of kinases for endogenous protein acceptors in liver of control mice was higher than that in liver of DHEA-treated animals. The specific activities of casein kinase, cAMP-dependent protein kinase, and cGMP-dependent protein kinase remained unchanged with DHEA treatment, but the specific activity of histone kinase was increased approximately 30%. Long-term administration of DHEA also was associated with increases in the specific activities of liver AMPase and GTPase (approximately two times), but not of other nucleotidases, alkaline phosphatase, acid phosphatase, glucose-6-phosphatase, or phosphotyrosine phosphatase. The activity of hepatic NADP-linked malic enzyme was increased significantly (two to three times) by DHEA treatment of female mice of three different strains, but was unchanged in male C57BL/6 mice. The specific activities of hepatic glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, NADP-linked isocitrate dehydrogenase, and ATP-citrate lyase were not affected significantly by DHEA treatment of mice. The rate of hepatic lipogenesis, determined by incorporation of tritium from 3H2O into fatty acids, was decreased approximately 70% in DHEA-treated mice, while the rate of cholesterol synthesis was increased approximately 44% compared with controls.

Drugs thought to inhibit the actions of protein kinase C (PKC) and cAMP dependent protein kinase (A-kinase) were infused intrathecally into the subarachnoid space of the lumbar region of the spinal cord, and the effects on acoustic startle were measured. Previous work has shown that intrathecal infusion of drugs thought to increase cAMP increase the startle response. The present experiment evaluated whether inhibition of A-kinase would prevent this effect. Rats were infused with the isoquinoline sulfonamide, H-8 (360 nmol) or vehicle (50% dimethyl sulfoxide), 30 min prior to infusion of 100 nmol of dibutyryl cAMP. By itself, H-8 had little effect on startle, but completely blocked the normal excitatory effect of dibutyryl cAMP on startle. In contrast, the isoquinoline sulfonamide, H-7, which is less active in blocking A-kinase, but more active in blocking PKC, did not block dibutyryl cAMP. Moreover, H-8 did not block the excitatory effect of intrathecal infusion of the 5-HT1A receptor agonist, 8-OH-dipropylaminotetraline (8-OH-DPAT). Thus, the blockade of dibutyryl cAMP by H-8 appears somewhat specific and suggests an involvement of A-kinase in the excitatory effects of dibutyryl cAMP on the acoustic startle response. In a second experiment, it was found that administration of the isoquinoline sulfonamide H-7 caused a marked, dose-dependent (150-800 nmol) facilitation of the startle reflex in comparison with its vehicle. Tris buffer (0.1 M). Like H-7, another PKC inhibitor, GT1b (20 nmol) produced a marked increase in the startle reflex versus its vehicle, 0.01 M phosphate buffer.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
