Phosphorylase kinase was purified (110-fold) from bovine stomach smooth muscle by a procedure involving DEAE-cellulose chromatography, ammonium sulfate fractionation and glycerol density ultracentrifugation. On sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) the final enzyme preparation shows a single protein band of 43 kDa. The purified protein exhibits a close similarity with bovine aortic actin, as revealed by amino acid analysis and sequencing of a tryptic decapeptide fragment, although it differs widely from actin in several respects. In our effort to separate phosphorylase kinase activity from the 43 kDa protein we used a variety of chromatographic procedures, but in all cases the catalytic activity (when eluted) was accompanied by the 43 kDa protein band. Bovine stomach phosphorylase kinase exhibits an apparent molecular mass of 950 kDa, it shows a low Vmax value for phosphorylase b (85 nmol.min-1.mg-1), a pH 6.8/8.2 activity ratio of 0.23, it has an absolute requirement for Ca2+ and it is activated 1.8-fold by Ca2+/calmodulin. Furthermore, the protein kinase activity is neither inhibited by antibodies against rabbit skeletal muscle phosphorylase kinase nor activated by protein phosphorylation. These results suggest that bovine stomach phosphorylase kinase is tightly bound to an aggregate of actin-like molecules.

The beta-adrenoceptor-cyclic adenosine monophosphate (AMP) dependent glycogenolytic cascade was examined in normal rat hepatocytes and rat ascites hepatoma AH130 cells. The cyclic AMP content in AH130 cells was half of that in normal hepatocytes, and the cyclic AMP levels in both kinds of cells were clearly increased by isoproterenol (IPN). Cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase activity was higher in AH130 cells than in normal hepatocytes. Phosphorylase kinase activities in 10000 x g supernatant of normal hepatocytes and AH130 cells were also increased in the presence of cyclic AMP. Phosphorylase a activities in the supernatant of both kinds of cells gradually decreased during incubation with 40 mM glucose at 37 degrees C, and the enzyme activity of normal hepatocytes was completely restored by the addition of Mg2(+)-adenosine triphosphate (ATP), but in the case of the hepatoma cells the recovery was small. The decreased phosphorylase a activity in the hepatoma cells was increased by additional glycogen but did not exceed the level before the incubation. In the case of normal hepatocytes it was not affected by glycogen. This indicates that glycogen contained in the cells influences the activation of phosphorylase; the glycogen content in AH130 cells was far less than in normal hepatocytes. On the other hand, when intact cells were incubated with a high concentration of glucose, phosphorylase a activity in the homogenate of normal hepatocytes was decreased and could be restored by IPN and dibutyryl cyclic AMP, but the enzyme activity in the homogenate of AH130 cells was very low and hardly changed after the incubation and treatment with these agents.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Phosphorylation of ion channels has been suggested as one molecular mechanism responsible for learning-produced long-term changes in neuronal excitability. Persistent training-produced changes in two distinct K+ currents (IA (ref. 2), IK-Ca (refs 3,4)) and a voltage-dependent calcium current (ICa; refs 3,4) have previously been shown to occur in type B photoreceptors of Hermissenda, as a result of associative learning. But the identity of the phosphorylation pathway(s) responsible for these changes has not as yet been determined. Injections of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase reduce a K+ current (IK) in B cells which is different from those changed by training, but fails to reduce IA and IK-Ca. Phosphorylase b kinase (an exogenous calcium/calmodulin-dependent kinase) reduces IA, but whether IK-Ca and ICa are changed in the manner of associative training is not yet known. Another protein kinase present in high concentrations in both mammalian brain and molluscan nervous systems is protein kinase C, which is both calcium- and phospholipid-sensitive. We now present evidence that activation of protein kinase C by the tumour promoter phorbol ester (PDB) and intracellular injection of the enzyme induce conductance changes similar to those caused by associative training in Hermissenda B cells (that is a reduction of IA and IK-Ca, and enhancement of ICa). These results represent the first direct demonstration that protein kinase C affects membrane K+ ion conductance mechanisms.

The first example of an enzyme that undergoes phosphorylation and dephosphorylation was phosphorylase, which catalyzes the initial step in the breakdown of tissue glycogen, a process that occurs when cells are stimulated by certain hormones. The phosphorylation reaction that activates phosphorylase is catalyzed by an enzyme designated "phosphorylase kinase," whereas the dephosphorylation reaction is catalyzed by an enzyme called "phosphorylase phosphatase." Phosphorylase kinase, like phosphorylase itself, is regulated by phosphorylation-dephosphorylation. In this instance the enzyme is phosphorylated and activated by a protein kinase that is the intracellular target of adenosine 3',5'-cyclic phosphate, the second messenger of hormone action that was discovered by the late Earl Sutherland. Knowledge of these steps led to the establishment of the glycogenolytic cascade in which adenosine 3',5'-cyclic phosphate, formed as a result of hormone action, first activates the adenosine 3',5'-cyclic phosphate-dependent protein kinase, which in turn activates phosphorylase kinase, which then converts inactive phosphorylase to its active form. This is followed by the breakdown of glycogen.

Several well-established procedures for the isolation of enzymes involved in glycogen metabolism have been modified such that all the enzymes can now be isolated from the same muscle preparation. The purified proteins are the catalytic subunit of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, its thermostable inhibitor, glycogen phosphorylases a and b, and phosphorylase kinase. Phosphorylase kinase is separated by acid precipitation of the muscle extract. The other proteins are purified from the acid supernatant by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose. Further purification of each protein to homogeneity is then achieved using previously described methods. The proposed protocol saves sample tissue, and considerably reduces the work involved in obtaining muscle samples.

Phosphorylase kinase purified from rabbit skeletal muscle was ADP-ribosylated by hen liver nuclear ADP-ribosyltransferase. This modification, as was seen in cAMP-dependent phosphorylation, was observed only in alpha and beta subunits of the phosphorylase kinase and the latter was more rapidly modified. Analysis of the ADP-ribosylated amino acid residue sequenced in alpha and beta subunits showed that both subunits were modified at the area of the arginine residue. The Km for NAD was 0.10 mM and the pH optimum was 9.0. When the ADP-ribosylated phosphorylase kinase was phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase, a reduction in phosphate incorporation occurred with increase in the ADP-ribosylation. ADP-ribosylation also suppressed autophosphorylation, to a lesser degree than observed with cAMP-dependent phosphorylation. The ADP-ribosylation-dependent reduction of phosphorylation resulted in a suppression of the phosphorylation-dependent activation of the phosphorylase kinase. These results together with findings of ADP-ribosyltransferase activity in the rabbit skeletal muscle [Soman, G. et al. (1984) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 120, 973-980] suggest that ADP-ribosylation participates in the regulation of the phosphorylase kinase activity through changes in the rate of phosphorylation.

In rat adipocytes hormone-sensitive lipase is phosphorylated at two sites termed 'regulatory' and 'basal', in the former case by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase causing an activation of the lipase [(1984) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 81, 3317-3321]. Here, the basal phosphorylation site was found to be phosphorylated by glycogen synthase kinase-4 without any effects on lipase activity, or on the extent of its activation subsequent to phosphorylation of the regulatory site. Glycogen synthase kinase-3, casein kinase-I, and casein kinase-II did not phosphorylate the lipase. Phosphorylase kinase phosphorylated it to a very low extent at a third phosphorylation site not phosphorylated in the fat cell.

Phosphorylase kinase has been purified from white and red chicken skeletal muscle to near homogeneity, as judged by sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) gel electrophoresis. The molecular mass of the native enzyme, estimated by chromatography on Sepharose 4B, is similar to that of rabbit skeletal muscle phosphorylase kinase, i.e. 1320 kDa. The purified enzyme both from white and red muscles showed four subunits upon polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of SDS, corresponding to alpha', beta, gamma' and delta with molecular masses of 140 kDa, 129 kDa, 44 kDa and 17 kDa respectively. Based on the molecular mass of 1320 kDa for the native enzyme and on the molar ratio of subunits as estimated from densitometric tracings of the polyacrylamide gels, a subunit formula (alpha' beta gamma' delta)4 has been proposed. The antiserum against the mixture of the alpha' and beta subunits of chicken phosphorylase kinase gave a single precipitin line with the chicken enzyme but did not cross-react with the rabbit skeletal muscle phosphorylase kinase. The pH 6.8/8.2 activity ratio of phosphorylase kinase from chicken skeletal muscle varied from 0.3 to 0.5 for different preparations of the enzyme. Chicken phosphorylase kinase could utilize rabbit phosphorylase b as a substrate with an apparent Km value of 0.02 mM at pH 8.2. The apparent V (18 mumol min-1 mg-1) and Km values for ATP at pH 8.2 (0.20 mM) were of the same order of magnitude as that of the purified rabbit phosphorylase kinase b. The activity of chicken phosphorylase kinase was largely dependent on Ca2+. The chicken enzyme was activated 2-4-fold by calmodulin and troponin C, with concentrations for half-maximal activation of 2 nM and 0.1 microM respectively. Phosphorylation with the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (up to 2 mol 32P/mol alpha beta gamma delta monomer) and autophosphorylation (up to 8 mol 32P/mol alpha beta gamma delta monomer) increased the activity 1.5-fold and 2-fold respectively. Limited tryptic and chymotryptic hydrolysis of chicken phosphorylase kinase stimulated its activity 2-fold. Electrophoretic analysis of the products of proteolytic attack suggests some differences in the structure of the rabbit and chicken gamma subunits and some similarities in the structure of the rabbit red muscle and chicken alpha'.

Phosphorylase kinase catalyzed the calcium-dependent phosphorylation of bovine cardiac C-protein. Phosphorylation of C-protein by phosphorylase kinase reached nearly 2 mol [32P]/mol C-protein. Tryptic phosphopeptide mapping and phosphoamino acid analysis indicated that phosphorylase kinase maybe phosphorylating some of the same seryl residues that undergo phosphorylation by cAMP-dependent protein kinase and that C-protein from bovine and chicken heart are structurally different. Bovine cardiac C-protein was not a substrate for a number of calcium and cyclic nucleotide-independent protein kinases, suggesting that phosphorylation of cardiac C-protein is restricted to protein kinases which are modulated by calcium and cAMP.

Phosphorylase kinase (Mr 1.3 X 10(6], a Ca2+-calmodulin-dependent protein kinase, plays a key role in the initiation of glycogenolysis. After purification on hydroxylapatite, the negatively stained enzyme was used for electron microscopy. In electron micrographs, phosphorylase kinase shows two major molecular forms: a butterfly form (approx. 60%) and a chalice form (approx. 40%). Images of the chalice form of the enzyme were computer-averaged by the method of single particle averaging. The following apparent molecular dimensions were obtained from the averages: total height, 20 nm; maximal width, 18 nm. The chalice form of phosphorylase kinase consists of a major structure termed the cup (11 nm X 18 nm), containing a large accessible cleft, and a minor structure termed the stem (8 nm X 9 nm). A closer examination of the images by averaging of molecular parts revealed two subpopulations of the cup part: a flexed (closed) type and an extended (open) type. The orifice, which can be closed partly by two protrusions (I, I'), is about 6 nm wide when the protrusions are flexed and 9 nm wide when they are extended. It is suggested that the substrates, e.g. phosphorylase b, may be accommodated in the large cleft of the enzyme. While the orientation of the protrusions (I, I') is the most obvious difference between the two types, more structural differences can be detected, suggesting a concerted movement of the protein domains against each other.
