Glycogen synthase is a substrate for five distinct protein kinases in skeletal muscle which phosphorylate seven different serine residues on the enzyme. Cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase phosphorylates sites 1a, 1b and 2, phosphorylase kinase, site 2, glycogen synthase kinase 3, sites 3a, 3b and 3c, glycogen synthase kinase 4, site 2 and glycogen synthase kinase 5 site 5. Site 2 is seven residues from the N-terminus of glycogen synthase and is located in a cyanogen bromide peptide termed CB1 (apparent Mr = 9000). The other six phosphorylation sites are located in a cyanogen bromide peptide termed CB2 (apparent Mr = 24 000) at the C-terminal end of the molecule. The sequence of the N-terminal 123 residues of peptide CB2, has been completed. Sites 3a, 3b, 3c, 5, 1a and 1b are located at residues 30, 34, 38, 46, 87 and 100 from the N-terminus of CB2 respectively. Site 1a is the next serine residue after site 5. The region surrounding sites 3a, 3b and 3c is very rich in proline residues while that surrounding sites 1a and 1b contains many serine and threonine residues. The 23 residues following site 5 contain 15 aspartic acid and glutamic acid residues, while the region immediately N-terminal to site 1a is very basic. The whole region is remarkably hydrophilic and is the region at which the native enzyme is attacked by proteinases. The sites at which glycogen synthase is cleaved by trypsin, chymotrypsin and thermolysin have been identified. The finding that trypsin cleaves the enzyme C-terminal to site 3c while chymotrypsin cleaves N-terminal to site 3a has formed the basis of a simple procedure for determining the state of phosphorylation of the seven serine residues in vivo [Parker, P.J., Embi, N., Caudwell, F.B., and Cohen, P. (1982) Eur. J. Biochem. 124, 47-55].

We measured [32P]-phosphorylation of erythrocyte membrane spectrin band 2 peptides from patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Erythrocyte ghosts were prepared and subjected to [32P]-phosphorylation by endogenous protein kinase incubations. Purified spectrin was then cleaved by cyanogen bromide, and the resulting peptides were analyzed by electrophoresis on 5%/15% SDS polyacrylamide stacking slab and tube gel systems. More than 50% of the incorporated [32P] was associated with a single band, CN-A, with an apparent molecular weight of 23 kilodaltons. The Coomassie blue-stained peptides were identical in patients and controls. Band CN-A represented approximately 2% of the total peptide protein but was more [32P]-phosphorylated in patients than in controls.

Wheat germ protein kinase inhibits in vitro translation of Brome Mosaic virus (BMV) RNA 1 and 2, without affecting the translation of RNA 4. Inhibition of formation of BMV polypeptides 1a and 2a is due to the arrest of initiation of polypeptide synthesis. It was found that protein kinase inhibits the formation of the 80S initiation complex with BMV RNA 1 and 2, without affecting the formation of the initiation complex with BMV RNA 4. Inhibition of protein synthesis by wheat germ protein kinase is accompanied by the phosphorylation of two ribosome-associated polypeptides, with molecular weights of 32 000 and 76 000, respectively. Both polypeptides are readily dephosphorylated by the enzyme(s) present in the cell-free extract. Their dephosphorylation is accompanied by restoration of the translational capacity of the system.

Diastereomers of adenosine 3',5'-phosphorothioate activate cAMP-dependent protein kinases (cAMP-PK) in vitro. We found that these compounds are highly selective tools to monitor cAMP-dependent PKA activation and its effect on amylase exocytosis from pancreatic acini. In permeabilized rat acinar cells, (Sp)-cAMPS dose-dependently stimulated amylase secretion, while (Rp)-cAMPS inhibited (Sp)-cAMPS-induced amylase release. In intact rat acini, 8-Br-(Rp)-cAMPS reduced the secretory responses to secretin, vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP), 8-Br-cAMP, and 8-Br-(Sp)-cAMPS, but not to cerulein. Another derivative, dibutyryl-(Rp)-cAMPS, induced a small inhibitory effect against 8-Br-(Sp)-cAMPS and VIP, which was overlapped by an unspecific stimulatory effect on amylase exocytosis induced by the degradation product butyrate. Furthermore, (Sp)-5,6-dichloro-1-beta-D-ribofuranosylbenzimidazole-3',5'- monophosphorothioate ((Sp)-5,6-DCl-cBIMPS), a specific cAMP-PK activator, induced a maximal induction of cAMP-PK activity, but its stimulation of amylase secretion was less than that by secretin. (Sp)-5,6-DCl-cBIMPS regulated the phosphorylation of several proteins, which were also affected by secretin. However, secretin had additional effects. Its action was most likely mediated by a dual effect on the cAMP and the calcium pathway. Our results indicate that the cAMP-dependent pathway is involved in amylase exocytosis from rat pancreatic acini.

1. Effects of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) on the L-type Ca2+ channels were examined in rabbit isolated ventricular cells by use of whole-cell and cell-attached configurations of the patch clamp methods. ANP produced a concentration-dependent decrease (10-100 nM) in amplitude of a basal Ca2+ channel current. 2. The inactive ANP (methionine-oxidized ANP, 30 nM) failed to decrease the current. 3. 8-Bromo-cyclic GMP (300 microM), a potent activator of cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinase (PKG), produced the same effects on the basal Ca2+ channel current as those produced by ANP. The cyclic GMP-induced inhibition of the Ca2+ channel current was still evoked in the presence of 1-isobutyl-3-methyl-xanthine, an inhibitor of phosphodiesterase. ANP failed to produce inhibition of the Ca2+ channel current in the presence of 8-bromo-cyclic GMP. 4. In the single channel recording, ANP and 8-bromo-cyclic GMP also inhibited the activities of the L-type Ca2+ channels. Both agents decreased the open probability (NPo) without affecting the unit amplitude. 5. The present results suggest that ANP inhibits the cardiac L-type Ca2+ channel activity through the intracellular production of cyclic GMP and then activation of PKG.

The C-terminal domain (CTD) of RNA polymerase II (RNAP II) is essential for the assembly of RNAP II into preinitiation complexes on some promoters such as the dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) promoter. In addition, during the transition from a preinitiation complex to a stable elongation complex, the CTD becomes heavily phosphorylated. In this report, interactions involving the CTD have been examined by protein-protein cross-linking. As a prelude to the study of CTD interactions, the effect of recombinant CTD on in vitro transcription was examined. The presence of recombinant CTD inhibits in vitro transcription from both the DHFR and adenovirus 2 major late promoters, suggesting that the CTD is involved in essential interactions with a general transcription factor(s). Factors in the transcription extract that interact with the CTD were identified by protein-protein cross-linking. Recombinant CTD was phosphorylated at its casein kinase II site, at the C terminus of the CTD, in the presence of [35S]adenosine 5'-O-(thiotriphosphate) and alkylated with azidophenacyl bromide. Incubation of azido-modified 35S-labeled CTD with a HeLa transcription extract followed by ultraviolet irradiation results in the covalent cross-linking of the CTD to proteins in contact with the CTD at the time of irradiation. Subsequent incubation with phenylmercuric acetate results in the transfer of 35S from the CTD to the protein to which it was cross-linked. The two major photolabeled bands have a M(r) of 34,000 and 74,000. The specificity of CTD interactions was demonstrated by a reduction in photolabeling in the presence of unmodified CTD or RNAP II containing an intact CTD (RNAP IIA) but not in the presence of a CTD-less RNAP II (RNAP IIB). The 35S-labeled 34- and 74-kDa proteins comigrate on SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis with the beta subunit of transcription factor IIE and the 74-kDa subunit of transcription factor IIF, respectively. Moreover, some of the minor 35S-labeled bands comigrate with other subunits of the general transcription factors.

1. During osmotic swelling, cultured osteoblastic cells (ROS 17/2.8) exhibited activation of large amplitude Cl- currents in the whole-cell configuration of the patch-clamp technique. Effects of hypotonic shock on cell volume and membrane conductance were rapidly reversed on return to isotonic conditions. 2. Voltage command pulses in the range -80 to +50 mV produce instantaneous activation of Cl- currents. At potentials more positive than +50 mV the current exhibited time-dependent inactivation. The instantaneous current-voltage relationship was outwardly rectifying. 3. The anion permeability sequence of the induced current was SCN- (2.2) > i- (1.9) > Br- (1.5) > Cl- (1.0) > F- (0.8) > gluconate- (0.2). This corresponds to Eisenman's sequence I. 4. The volume-sensitive Cl- current was effectively inhibited by the Cl- channel blockers 4,4'- diisothiocyanatostilbene-2,2-disulphonic acid (DIDS) and 5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino) benzoic acid (NPPB). Outward currents were more effectively suppressed by DIDS than inward currents. The concentrations for 50% inhibition (IC50) of outward and inward currents were 81 and 298 microM, respectively. NPPB was equally effective at inhibiting outward and inward currents (IC50 of 64 microM). The current was relatively insensitive to diphenylamine-2-carboxylate (DPC), 500 microM producing only 22.5 +/- 4.0% inhibition. 5. Inhibitors of protein kinase A (H-89, 1 microM) and tyrosine kinase (tyrphostin A25, 200 microM) were without effect upon activation of Cl- currents in response to hypotonic shock. Under isotonic conditions, elevation of intracellular Ca2+ by ionomycin (1 microM) or activation of protein kinase C by 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA, 0.1 microM) failed to evoke increases in basal Cl- conductance levels. 6. It is concluded that an outwardly rectifying Cl- conductance is activated upon osmotic swelling and may be involved in cell volume regulation of ROS 17/2.8 cells.

Phosphorylation of many protein substrates by the protein kinase casein kinase 2 (CK2) is stimulated severalfold in the presence of polyamines such as spermine. Previous experiments have shown that CK2 is a polyamine binding protein and that the regulatory beta subunit is required for this binding activity. To delineate the spermine binding site of CK2, we have applied a photoaffinity labeling method using a tritiated photoactivable analog of spermine, [3H]sperminediazonium. The photoaffinity labeled beta subunit was cleaved with cyanogen bromide, and two labeled peptides were separated by high performance liquid chromatography. The major one was the peptide T72EQAAEM78 and the minor one was a 22-amino acid peptide comprising residues Ile98 to Met119. Thr72 and His108 were identified as the labeled amino acids of the Thr72-Met78 and Ile98-Met119 peptides, respectively. In the same manner, we succeeded in determining the residue Leu220 as an alpha subunit residue covalently bound to the probe. The photoaffinity labeling method described here enabled the first elucidation, by direct microsequencing, of a polyamine binding site on CK2 for which we propose a provisional structural model. These observations suggest a possible mechanism for CK2 activation by polyamines at the molecular level.

This study characterizes the actions of insulin and parathyroid hormone (PTH) on the glucose transport system in the rat osteogenic sarcoma cell line UMR 106-01, which expresses a number of features of the osteoblast phenotype. Using [1,2-3H]2-deoxyglucose (2-DOG) as a label, UMR 106-01 cells were shown to possess a glucose transport system which was enhanced by insulin. In contrast, PTH influenced glucose transport in a biphasic manner with a stimulatory effect at 1 h and a more potent inhibitory effect at 16 h on basal and insulin-stimulated 2-DOG transport. To explore the mechanism of PTH action, a direct agonist of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) was tested. 8-Bromo-cAMP had no acute stimulatory effect but inhibited basal and insulin-stimulated 2-DOG transport at 16 h. This result suggested that the prolonged, but not the acute, effect of PTH was mediated by the generation of cAMP. Further studies with the cell line UMR 4-7, a UMR 106-01 clone stably transfected with an inducible mutant inactive regulatory subunit of PKA, confirmed that the inhibitory but not the stimulatory effect of PTH was mediated by the PKA pathway. Northern blot data indicated that the prolonged inhibitory effects of PTH and 8-bromo-cAMP on glucose transport were likely to be mediated in part by reduction in the levels of GLUT1 (HepG2/brain glucose transporter) mRNA.

1. Chloride channels were identified in the basolateral membrane of isolated cortical thick ascending limbs (CTALs) of the mouse nephron by the patch-clamp technique. A channel with a conductance of 45 pS, previously shown to be Cl- selective, was detected in 21% of cell-attached patches when CTAL fragments were pre-incubated with 10 mumol l-4 forskolin for at least 15 min. The same channel was found in only 8.5% of cell-attached patches formed on unstimulated tubules. 2. Another channel with a smaller conductance (7-9 pS) was found in 42.8% of cell-attached patches and 57% of inside-out patches in unstimulated CTAL tubules, but in 82-87% of patches from forskolin-treated tubules. 3. The small channels was Cl- selective (Cl(-)-to-Na+ permeability ratio, PCl/PNa = 9.8) with the permeability sequence: NO3- > Br- > Cl- > F- > gluconate. Channel activity decreased (Br-) or disappeared (NO3-) at negative voltages. At 140 mmol l-1, I- completely inhibited channel activity at all voltages, but a PI/PCl ratio of 1.6 was estimated using a low I- concentration (10 mmol l-1). 4. Internal adenosine triphosphate (ATP) increased normalized current (nPo) in 48% of inside-out patches containing Cl- channels from unstimulated tubules and in 63% of patches from forskolin-treated CTAL tubules. The non-hydrolysable ATP analogue, adenosine 5'-adenylyl imidodiphosphate (AMP-PNP) did not increase channel activity. 5. Adding the catalytic subunit of protein kinase A to the bath in the presence of ATP increased the activity of the small channel in 58% of inside-out patches from unstimulated tubules, but it had no effect on the 45 pS channel. 6. The Cl- channel blockers 5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamine)-benzoic acid (NPPB), 4,4'-diisothiocyanatostilbene-2,2'-disulphonic acid (DIDS) or glibenclamide, all at 0.1 mmol l-1, and diphenylamine-2-carboxylic acid (DPC), at 1 mmol l-1, inhibited the small channel activity by 80-100% in inside-out patches. 7. These results indicate that two Cl- channels with contrasting properties mediate the basolateral step of NaCl absorption in the thick ascending limb of the loop of Henle.
