Phosphorylation of hepatic cytochrome P-450 was studied in isolated hepatocytes incubated in the presence of agents known to stimulate protein kinase activity. Incubation of hepatocytes isolated from phenobarbital-induced adult male rats with [32P]orthophosphate in the presence of N6,O2'-dibutyryl-cAMP (diBtcAMP) or glucagon resulted in the phosphorylation of microsomal proteins that are immunoprecipitable by polyclonal antibodies raised to the phenobarbital-inducible P-450 form PB-4 (P-450 gene IIB1). Little or no phosphorylation of these proteins was observed in the absence of diBtcAMP or glucagon or in the presence of activators of Ca2+-dependent protein kinases. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis revealed that these 32P-labeled microsomal proteins consist of a mixture of P-450 PB-4 and the closely related P-450 PB-5 (gene IIB2), both of which exhibited heterogeneity in the isoelectric focusing dimension. Phosphorylation of both P-450 forms was markedly enhanced by diBtcAMP at concentrations as low as 5 microM. In contrast, little or no phosphorylation of P-450 forms reactive with antibodies to P-450 PB-1 (gene IIC6), P-450 2c (gene IIC11), or P-450 PB-2a (gene IIIA1) was detected in the isolated hepatocytes under these incubation conditions. Phosphoamino acid analysis of the 32P-labeled P-450 PB-4 + PB-5 immunoprecipitate revealed that these P-450s are phosphorylated on serine in the isolated hepatocytes. Peptide mapping indicated that the site of phosphorylation in hepatocytes is indistinguishable from the site utilized by cAMP-dependent protein kinase in vitro, which was previously identified as serine-128 for the related rabbit protein P-450 LM2.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

We examined the mechanisms by which the phospholipid-sensitive, calcium-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase C) regulates prostacyclin synthesis by ovarian cells. In monolayer cultures of swine granulosa cells, specific phorbol esters significantly augmented production of the stable immunoreactive metabolite of prostacyclin, 6-keto-prostaglandin F1 alpha by 3- to 8-fold. These stimulatory actions were dose (0.03-30 ng/ml) and time (24-96 h) dependent, could be reproduced by non-diterpene activators of protein kinase C, and were corroborated by high performance liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry. The rank order of potency of phorbol esters was 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA) greater than phorbol 12,13-dibenzoate greater than phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate greater than pure phorbol base. TPA enhanced de novo synthesis of prostacyclin, and synergized with the divalent cation ionophore, A23187. Although prostacyclin synthetase activity was not induced, microsomal cyclooxygenase activity was significantly increased by phorbol treatment. Moreover, TPA doubled the intracellular accumulation of free arachidonic acid. An inhibitor of phospholipase A2 (quinacrine 100 microM) impeded, whereas melittin (0.01 microM), an activator of cellular phospholipase A2, and purified bacterial phospholipase A2 (5 and 50 mU/ml) both augmented prostacyclin production. RH 59022 (30 microM), an inhibitor of diacylglyceride lipase, also suppressed prostacyclin synthesis. We conclude that the protein kinase C effector pathway is functionally coupled to de novo prostacyclin production in the swine granulosa cell. Increased eicosanoid synthesis can be accounted for by enhanced phospholipase A2 and diacylglyceride lipase-mediated availability of arachidonic acid substrate and an activated cyclooxygenase enzyme without a change in prostacyclin synthetase activity.

1. Cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinase phosphorylates purified phospholamban. It also phosphorylates phospholamban present in vesicles of cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum and smooth muscle microsomal fractions, and in transformants of Escherichia coli which contain a plasmid into which a gene encoding phospholamban has been inserted. 2. In vitro the phospholamban present in cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes is a better substrate for cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinase than for cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. 3. Studies using [32P]Pi to label the cellular ATP in intact cardiac or smooth muscle failed to demonstrate that phosphorylation of phospholamban occurs in response to stimuli which increase intracellular cyclic GMP. Possible reasons for this functional separation between increased cyclic GMP and phosphorylation of phospholamban are discussed.

Evidence is presented for a testicular protein kinase activity capable of stimulating the activity in vitro of a partially purified preparation of the testicular galactolipid sulphotransferase. This enzyme is responsible for the synthesis of the major mammalian testicular glycolipid, sulphogalactosylglycerol, and is an early marker of differentiation during spermatogenesis. This stimulatory activity has been separated by affinity chromatography, using 3',5'-ADP-agarose, from both the detergent-solubilized microsomes (microsomal fractions) and the soluble fraction of the testicular homogenate. The stimulator was eluted from the affinity matrix by either a salt, or, more selectively, a cyclic AMP gradient. Thus this matrix can function as an analogue of 3',5'-cyclic AMP. The activity of the sulphotransferase stimulator was ATP-dependent and coincident with protein kinase activity. Sulphotransferase activity was also stimulated in the presence of commercial preparations of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase and stimulation was prevented in the presence of kinase inhibitors. Our results suggest that sulphogalactolipid biosynthesis is regulated by a phosphorylation process during spermatogenesis. In addition, our results suggest that affinity chromatography on 3',5'-ADP-agarose may provide a general method for the purification of cyclic AMP-dependent kinases.

The influence of chronic administration of antidepressants on cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase activity was examined in rat frontal cortex. Chronic administration of imipramine, tranylcypromine, or electroconvulsive seizures decreased cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase activity in soluble fractions by approximately 25%, whereas enzyme activity was increased in the particulate fractions by approximately 20%. In contrast, enzyme activity in crude homogenates was not altered. This effect appears to be specific to antidepressant drugs, because representatives of several other classes of psychotropic drugs-namely, haloperidol, morphine, and diazepam--failed to alter either soluble or particulate levels of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase activity in this brain region following chronic administration. When the total particulate fraction was subfractionated, it was found that chronic imipramine treatment significantly increased the activity of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase in crude nuclear fractions but not in crude synaptosomal or microsomal fractions. Taken together, the data raise the possibility that chronic antidepressant treatments may stimulate the translocation of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase from the cytosol to the nucleus. This effect would represent a novel action of antidepressants that could contribute to the long-term adaptive changes in brain thought to be essential for the clinical actions of these treatments.

We have investigated the possible role of a cAMP-mediated protein-phosphorylation event(s) as the key regulatory mechanism in beta-adrenoreceptor-stimulated activation of mannosylphosphodolichol (Man-P-Dol) synthase (GDP-mannose:dolichyl-phosphate O-beta-D-mannosyltransferase, EC 2.4.1.83) in rat parotid acinar cells. Microsomal membranes isolated from these cells pretreated with 10 microM isoproterenol for 60 min showed approximately 40-80% enhanced Man-P-Dol synthase activity compared to the untreated controls. This change in enzyme activity was not associated with a significant alteration in apparent Km for GDP-mannose, but the Vmax was enhanced 2-fold. When microsomal membranes isolated from control cells were phosphorylated in vitro by a cAMP-dependent protein kinase, an increase in Man-P-Dol synthase activity, similar to that with membranes from isoproterenol-treated cells, was observed (i.e., a moderate change in Km for GDP-mannose but a 2-fold higher Vmax). Furthermore, treatment of in vitro phosphorylated microsomal membranes by alkaline phosphatase led to a substantial reduction in Man-P-Dol synthase activity. Increased Man-P-Dol synthesis (approximately 30-40%) was also observed in bovine brain and hen oviduct microsomal membranes after in vitro protein phosphorylation. In aggregate, these results strongly suggest that agents that increase cAMP in cells may modulate protein N-glycosylation in those cells by activating this key glycosyltransferase of the dolichol cascade by a cAMP-dependent protein kinase-mediated protein phosphorylation/dephosphorylation cycle.

We have identified the product (p57v-rel) of the transforming gene, v-rel, of avian reticuloendotheliosis virus (REV-T) using antisera generated against nonoverlapping sequences representing the middle and carboxy-terminal regions of the v-rel protein expressed in Escherichia coli (N.K. Herzog and H.R. Bose, Jr., 1986, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 83, 812-816). The amino-terminal region of the v-rel protein was also expressed in E. coli and used to generate antisera. The immunoglobulin-enriched fractions of these antisera were used to determine the subcellular location of p57v-rel in REV-T transformed lymphoid cells. Cells were fractionated into nuclear, mitochondrial, microsomal, and cytoplasmic fractions. The majority of p57v-rel was found in the cytoplasm. Examination of REV-T transformed lymphoid cells labeled with 32Pi revealed that the majority of the phosphorylated form of the v-rel protein was also found in the cytoplasm. Indirect immunofluorescence of REV-T transformed cells gave a diffuse cytoplasmic pattern indicating that p57v-rel was not associated with any discrete cellular organelle. The distribution of p57v-rel was similar in REV-T transformed lymphoid cells labeled with [35S]methionine for short and long periods of time, suggesting that p57v-rel is a soluble cytoplasmic protein throughout its lifetime. The v-rel protein was phosphorylated when immune complexes precipitated from transformed cells with the immunoglobulin fractions obtained from antisera against the amino-terminal, middle, and carboxy-terminal regions of v-rel were incubated with [gamma-32P]ATP and Mn2+. The phosphorylation of p57v-rel in the in vitro immune complex kinase assay was inhibited when the immunoglobulin-enriched fraction of these antisera was preincubated with the homologous v-rel fusion proteins. Preincubation with heterologous proteins did not block the phosphorylation of p57v-rel. These observations suggest that p57v-rel is associated with a protein kinase activity. Most of the kinase activity was found in the soluble cytoplasmic fraction of transformed cells. The transforming protein encoded by v-rel is a relatively stable protein with a half-life of approximately 7 to 8 hr in transformed lymphoid cells.

Three forms of Ca2+- and phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase C) were extensively purified from rat liver homogenate. Subcellular fractionation analysis indicated that the majority (approximately 85%) of the activity was associated with particulate fractions of the liver. Among these, the microsomal and nuclear fractions accounted for approximately 63% and approximately 10% of total activity. The remaining 15% of protein kinase C was recovered in the soluble fraction following differential centrifugation. It was also found that most of the membrane-associated protein kinase C was latent, with 4-6-fold stimulation with detergents such as 3-[(3-cholamidopropyl)dimethylammonio]-2-hydroxy-1-propanesulfonate, octyl beta-glucoside, or Triton X-100. The activity of both the bound form and the soluble enzyme was enhanced by the addition of Ca2+ and phosphatidylserine, when histone H1 was used as substrate. The bound protein kinase C activity was dissociated by homogenization of liver in buffer containing ethylene glycol bis(beta-aminoethyl ether)-N,-N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid, ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, and various proteolytic inhibitors, and the solubilized extract was used to purify multiple forms of the enzyme. The purification procedure sequentially utilized (NH4)2SO4 fractionation, ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, gel permeation chromatography on Fractogel TSK HW-55 (F), ion-exchange chromatography on hydroxylapatite, gel permeation chromatography on Ultrogel AcA34, and affinity chromatography on polyacrylamide-immobilized phosphatidylserine. On hydroxylapatite columns, protein kinase C activity was resolved into three isoenzymic forms designated C-I, C-II, and C-III. The molecular weights of the three isoenzymic forms were in the range of 208,000-225,000 as shown by chromatography on calibrated Ultrogel AcA34 columns and sucrose density gradient centrifugation. Furthermore, all three isoenzymes demonstrated a single peak with a sedimentation coefficient (s20.w) in the range of 9.0-9.2. However, with polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, all the forms showed a single protein component with average molecular weight of 64K, suggesting that the native isoenzymes may be composed by subunits. Finally, all three isoenzymes exhibited nearly identical enzymatic properties.

The possibility of a short-term cAMP-dependent regulation of mixed-function oxidation and of glucuronide formation was investigated in isolated mouse hepatocytes and in mouse liver microsomal membranes. N6, O2-dibutyryl cAMP (in accordance with its increasing effect on gluconeogenesis) decreased aminopyrine oxidation and p-nitrophenol conjugation in isolated hepatocytes, while the phenolphthalein conjugation remained unaltered. Similar to dibutyryl cAMP the Ca2+ ionophore A 23187 also decreased aminopyrine oxidation. In cell-free systems the phosphorylation of isolated microsomal membranes by the exogenous cAMP-dependent protein kinase was inhibitory on aminopyrine oxidation and p-nitrophenol glucuronide formation but aniline oxidation and phenolphthalein glucuronidation were not affected. The correlation between the negative cAMP-dependent control of certain processes of biotransformation and the positive cAMP-dependent regulation of gluconeogenesis is discussed.

The extent of activation of rat submandibular protein kinase A (EC 2.7.1.37) isozymes following beta-adrenergic receptor stimulation was determined in vitro using dispersed cells and an 8-N3-[32P]cAMP photoprobe. The half-maximal binding of the photoprobe for microsomal and cytosolic type I and cytosolic type II was 9 nM, 27 nM and 92 nM, respectively. 'Cold trap' studies indicated that 70% of type I protein kinase A was activated following maximal beta-adrenergic receptor stimulation, whereas type II activation was less than 40%. Both cytosolic and microsomal type I activation occurred rapidly following beta-adrenergic receptor stimulation and both remain activated throughout the entire secretory period. Type I inactivation occurred rapidly subsequent to beta-adrenergic receptor blockade. The dose-response relationship for the isotypes following beta-adrenergic receptor activation demonstrated a greater extent of type I activation at submaximal concentrations of agonist. Although protein kinase A may not be the only kinase involved in rat submandibular mucin release, these data add further support to a direct regulatory role for this kinase, with type I having potentially a greater role than type II.
