The present study reports the existence of Purkinje cell-specific phosphoprotein, Mr 260,000 (PCPP-260), a neuronal membrane phosphoprotein, in cerebellar Purkinje cells. PCPP-260, which on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis has an apparent molecular mass of 260,000 Da, has been found to be phosphorylated in particulate preparations by endogenous or added exogenous cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, but not by cyclic GMP-dependent, calcium/calmodulin-dependent or calcium/phospholipid-dependent protein kinases. The protein has been found in high concentrations in all mammalian cerebella so far analyzed, including human cerebellum. One-and two-dimensional electrophoretic and peptide mapping analyses of proteins in other brain regions show that a closely related 265,000 Da phosphoprotein also exists, albeit in low concentrations, outside the cerebellum. Analysis of cerebella from mutant mice, deficient in either Purkinje cells or in granule cells, indicates that PCPP-260 within the cerebellum is restricted to Purkinje cells. Furthermore, subcellular fractionation of rat cerebella indicates that the protein is an integral membrane protein. The cAMP-regulated phosphorylation of PCPP-260 is presumably involved in membrane functions important to Purkinje cells.

A serine-specific casein kinase, an integral membrane protein of the lactating guinea-pig mammary gland, has been purified from a Golgi-enriched membrane fraction, using a combination of sucrose gradient centrifugation and chromatography on ATP-agarose. The enzyme comprises a polypeptide of estimated Mr 74 000 as judged by sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, compared with a monomer Mr of 50 000 as determined by sucrose gradient centrifugation in the presence of 500 mM NaCl and 0.1% Triton X-100. Kinetic studies show that the purified enzyme exhibits kinetic constants distinctly different from the rabbit reticulocyte casein kinases I and II, whilst polyclonal antisera raised against the mammary gland enzyme did not cross-react with soluble liver or reticulocyte protein kinase activities. Immunoblotting and immunocytochemical analyses demonstrate the mammary gland enzyme's apparently unique location in lactating mammary gland tissue. Comparative studies with polyclonal antisera raised against bovine galactosyltransferase, show that casein kinase and galactosyltransferase have a similar intracellular localisation in the lactating mammary gland as judged by immunocytochemistry at the light level, but that casein kinase was unique to mammary gland whereas galactosyltransferase could be found in other tissues. The results extended our earlier observations which suggest a Golgi location for casein kinase, and demonstrate that future studies using this enzyme may well prove advantageous for the study of intracellular mechanisms involved in the biogenesis of organelles, in this instance the Golgi apparatus.

Purified rat liver coated vesicles phosphorylate two peptides, Mr 53 000 and Mr 51 000, in the presence of [gamma-32P]ATP. Incorporation of phosphate into these peptides is not stimulated by cAMP, Ca2+, or Ca2+ plus calmodulin and occurs principally on a threonine residue. Mild conditions that result in removal of coat proteins from coated vesicles remove most of the protein kinase activity, suggesting the enzyme(s) is (are) not an integral membrane protein. Photolabeling of coated vesicles with 8-azido-[alpha-32P]ATP results in specific labeling of only the Mr 53 000 and Mr 51 000 peptides. Preincubation with 10 mM N-ethylmaleimide inhibits kinase activity and concomitantly reduces photolabeling of the two peptides. Thus, the data are consistent with the hypothesis that protein kinase activity resides with these two coated vesicle proteins and that they are catalyzing an autophosphorylation reaction.

The transforming protein (pp60src) of the Rous sarcoma virus (RSV) is a phosphoprotein with the enzymatic ability to phosphorylate tyrosine in protein substrates. Previous work has indicated that the bulk of pp60src may be attached to the plasma membrane of infected cells. In an effort to better understand the mechanism by which pp60src induces the neoplastic phenotype, we have characterized further the attachment of pp60src to the plasma membrane, and we have identified separate molecular domains that are responsible for the attachment to membranes and for the protein kinase activity. Our results indicate that pp60src may be an integral membrane protein that is nevertheless synthesized on soluble polyribosomes. Subsequent to its synthesis, the protein attaches to plasma membrane without concomitant cleavage of a signal polypeptide. The amino-terminal quarter (or some portion thereof) of pp60src anchors the protein to the plasma membrane by forces that can be disrupted only with detergents. By contrast, protein kinase activity is located in the carboxyl-terminal half of the molecule. It appears that pp60src is designed on the one hand for tethering to the plasma membrane and on the other hand for enzymatic activity beyond the confines of the membrane. The fact that pp60src is but one of at least four different viral transforming proteins located on the plasma membrane implies that neoplastic transformation may commonly originate in events that occur at the periphery of the cell.

A cAMP-binding protein and cAMP-dependent protein kinase have been identified and partially characterized in bovine adrenocortical plasma membranes. [3H]cAMP binding to the plasma membrane preparation demonstrates both high (Ka = 4.2 X 10(9) M-1) and low (Ka = 1.3 X 10(8) M-1) affinity binding sites. cAMP-dependent protein kinase was demonstrated using both bovine histone and endogenous substrates. The detergent-dependent solubilization characteristics of this cAMP-dependent protein kinase indicate that it is an integral membrane protein.

Fujinami sarcoma virus (FSV) encodes a transforming protein of 130,000 daltons (P130) which is associated with a tyrosine-specific protein kinase activity. To elucidate mechanisms involved in cell transformation by FSV, we have studied the intracellular location of P130 in rat cells nonproductively infected with FSV. Immunofluorescent staining of several FSV-transformed rat cell lines with a tumor regressor antiserum specific against the fps sequences of P130 showed that the major staining was localized in the cytoplasm. Staining was also seen in cell ruffles and in some cases at areas of cell contact. The cytoplasmic location of P130 staining in cells infected with temperature-sensitive mutants of FSV was unchanged when they were grown at permissive or nonpermissive temperature. Cell fractionation of FSV-transformed cells under various conditions showed that the ionic strength used during cell fractionation had a striking effect on the distribution of P130. At 10 mM NaCl, 70% of P130 sedimented in the large granule fraction, whereas at 500 mM NaCl 70 to 90% of P130 was recovered in the cytosol fraction. Furthermore, a combination of ionic and nonionic detergents that effectively solubilized subcellular membranes was insufficient to solubilize P130 unless the salt concentration was raised. We conclude that the majority of P130 and its associated protein kinase activity are localized in the cytoplasm and that P130 is not an integral membrane protein.

Investigations in numerous laboratories have characterized a salt transport system, present in many animal cell types, which catalyzes the transmembrane transport of NaCl and KCl in a tightly coupled process. The system is inhibited by loop diuretics such as furosemide and bumetanide. This transport system has been designated the loop diuretic-sensitive NaCl/KCl symporter. It has been implicated in transepithelial salt secretion and absorption as well as in cell volume regulation, and it may be defective in patients suffering from essential hypertension. This review serves to evaluate research conducted to date regarding the mechanism, mode of regulation, and physiological significance of the transport system. Ion binding specificities and absolute binding constants for all three naturally occurring ions have been determined in one cell system, the MDCK kidney epithelial cell line. In that same cell line, substrate binding was shown to exhibit apparent cooperativity. although a few reports suggest unidirectional transport of ions via this system under certain conditions, the consensus of reports indicates fully reversible, bidirectional salt transport with the direction of net flux determined by the magnitudes of the gradients of the three transported ions. Growth of cells in media containing a low concentration of K+ (less than 0.25 mM) allows selection of mutants lacking or defective in the symporter. Kinetic analyses with the MDCK cell line have shown that the symporter catalyzes accelerative exchange transport. However, exchange transport of one ion in the absence of one of the other two ionic substrates has not been documented. Comparison with other well-characterized transmembrane transport systems has shown that the characteristics of the NaCl/KCl symporter most resemble those of two-species facilitators (chemiosmotically-coupled symporters) found in prokaryotes and eukaryotes alike. these two-species facilitators consist of a single transmembrane protein and may function by a carrier-type mechanism as originally proposed by Peter Mitchell. A molecular model for the NaCl/KCl symporter is presented and discussed. Activation of symport activity requires ATP and probably occurs by a protein kinase-catalyzed mechanism. In some cell types activation is cyclic AMP dependent. ATP hydrolysis is not stoichiometric with transport. Phosphorylation of an integral membrane protein with an apparent size of 240 000 daltons correlates with activation of transport. It is postulated that this protein is the loop diuretic-sensitive NaCl/KCl symporter.

After human platelets were lysed by freezing and thawing in the presence of EDTA, about 35% of the total cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase activity was specifically associated with the particulate fraction. In contrast, Ca2+-activated phospholipid-dependent protein kinase was found exclusively in the soluble fraction. Photoaffinity labelling of the regulatory subunits of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase with 8-azido-cyclic [32P]AMP indicated that platelet lysate contained a 4-fold excess of 49 000-Da RI subunits over 55 000-Da RII subunits. The RI and RII subunits were found almost entirely in the particulate and soluble fractions respectively. Chromatography of the soluble fraction on DEAE-cellulose demonstrated a single peak of cyclic AMP-dependent activity with the elution characteristics and regulatory subunits characteristic of the type-II enzyme. A major enzyme peak containing Ca2+-activated phospholipid-dependent protein kinase was eluted before the type-II enzyme, but no type-I cyclic AMP-dependent activity was normally observed in the soluble fraction. The particulate cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase and associated RI subunits were solubilized by buffers containing 0.1 or 0.5% (w/v) Triton X-100, but not by extraction with 0.5 M-NaCl, indicating that this enzyme is firmly membrane-bound, either as an integral membrane protein or via an anchor protein. DEAE-cellulose chromatography of the Triton X-100 extracts demonstrated the presence of both type-I cyclic AMP-dependent holoenzyme and free RI subunits. These results show that platelets contain three main protein kinase activities detectable with histone substrates, namely a membrane-bound type-I cyclic AMP-dependent enzyme, a soluble type-II cyclic AMP-dependent enzyme and Ca2+-activated phospholipid-dependent protein kinase, which was soluble in lysates containing EDTA.

Avian erythroblastosis virus (AEV) is an oncogenic retrovirus capable of transforming both fibroblasts and immature erythroid cells. The v-erb-B locus within the AEV genome encodes a glycosylated protein, expression of which is required for oncogenic transformation of either cell type. Subcellular localization of the v-erb-B glycoprotein in AEV-transformed cells is reported here. Results indicate that the v-erb-B protein is synthesized on dense membrane fractions and appears to possess the properties of an integral membrane protein. The bulk of the v-erb-B protein remains with dense membranes after synthesis, although a small quantity may slowly become associated with the plasma membrane. The biogenesis and subcellular location of the v-erb-B protein are thus quite different from those of the transforming proteins that display protein kinase activity. These differences are especially provocative because the amino acid sequences of the v-erb-B protein and the protein kinases are closely related to one another.

The concentration of Dorsal protein in the nucleus determines cell fate along the dorsoventral axis of the Drosophila embryo. The dorsal-group genes and the cactus gene are required for production and transmission of a localized signal on the ventral side of the embryo which determines the position of the highest nuclear concentration of Dorsal protein. The ventralizing signal produced in somatic cells is transmitted through the perivitelline space to the integral membrane protein Toll. Inside the embryo it leads to dissociation of the cytoplasmic Dorsal-Cactus complex and subsequent nuclear localization of Dorsal protein. Two components are known to mediate the signal transduction between Toll and Dorsal-Cactus: Pelle, a serine/threonine protein kinase, and Tube, a protein with an unknown biochemical activity. Here we construct gain-of-function alleles of pelle and tube and show that pelle functions downstream of tube. In addition, Pelle and Tube interact directly with one another. We propose that Tube is a direct activator of the protein kinase Pelle.
