Chinese hamster ovary cells exhibit several characteristic morphological and physiological responses upon treatment with agents which increase the intracellular level of adenosine 3':5'-phosphate (cyclic AMP). To better understand the mechanism of these cyclic AMP-mediated responses, we separated two cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinases (ATP:protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37) (protein kinase I and protein kinase II) from the cytosol of Chinese hamster ovary cells by DEAE-cellulose chromatography and studied their properties. Protein kinase I is eluted at a lower salt concentration than protein kinase II and is stimulable to 10 times its basal catalytic activity, while protein kinase II is stimulable only 2-fold. Both kinases are completely dissociated by cyclic AMP and inhibited by specific cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitor. They have similar Km values for magnesium (approximately 1 mM), cyclic AMP (approximately 60 nM), and ATP (approximately 0.1 mM), and the dissociation constant (Kdis) for cyclic AMP (approximately 13 nM) is the same for both enzymes. However, they appear to have different substrate preferences and cyclic AMP-binding properties in that cyclic AMP bound to protein kinase II exchanges readily with free cyclic AMP, while that bound to protein kinase I is not exchangeable. The native enzymes have different sedimentation coefficients (6.4 S for protein kinase I and 4.8 S for protein kinase II), whereas those of the activated enzymes are the same (2.9--3.0 S). It appears that the two cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinases which differ from each other in their regulatory subunits may play different roles in the mediation of cyclic AMP action in Chinese hamster ovary cells.

1. Protein kinase activities in homogenates of rat islets of Langerhans were studied. 2. On incubation of homogenates with [gamma-32P]ATP, incorporation of 32P into protein occurred: this phosphorylation was neither increased by cyclic AMP nor decreased by the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitor described by Ashby & Walsh [(1972) J. Biol. Chem. 247, 6637--6642]. 3. On incubation of homogenates with [gamma-32P]ATP and histone as exogenous substrate for phosphorylation, incorporation of 32P into protein was stimulated by cyclic AMP (approx. 2.5-fold) and was inhibited by the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitor. In contrast, when casein was used as exogenous substrate, incorporation of 32P into protein was not stimulated by cyclic AMP, nor was it inhibited by the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitor. 4. DEAE-cellulose ion-exchange chromatography resolved four peaks of protein kinase activity. One species was the free catalytic subunit of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, two species corresponded to 'Type I' and 'Type II' cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase holoenzymes [see Corbin, Keely & Park (1975) J. Biol. Chem. 250, 218--225], and the fourth species was a cyclic AMP-independent protein kinase. 5. Determination of physical and kinetic properties of the protein kinases showed that the properties of the cyclic AMP-dependent activities were similar to those described in other tissues and were clearly distinct from those of the cyclic AMP-independent protein kinase. 6. The cyclic AMP-independent protein kinase had an s20.w of 5.2S, phosphorylated a serine residue(s) in casein and was not inhibited by the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitor. 7. These studies demonstrate the existence in rat islets of Langerhans of multiple forms of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase and also the presence of a cyclic AMP-independent protein kinase distinct from the free catalytic subunit of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. The presence of the cyclic AMP-independent protein kinase may account for the observed characteristics of 32P incorporation into endogenous protein in homogenates of rat islets.

The regulation of Cl- channels in human myoballs by G proteins was studied using whole-cell and inside-out patch recordings. After perfusion of the cell with 0.1 mM GTP[gamma S], the specific Cl- conductance, GCl, at standard resting potential (-85 mV) was increased from 5.9 microS/cm2 to 103 microS/cm2, and the kinetics upon stepping the potential to positive values was changed from an activating current with very slow inactivation to a fast inactivating current with no potential-dependent activation. These effects were not affected by the simultaneous blockade of several signal cascades involving G proteins. Addition of the protein kinase blockers PKI (25 microM), H8 (10 microM), or of the phospholipase-A2-blocking agent quinacrine (10 microM), had not much influence on these GTP[gamma S] effects. Buffering of the intracellular Ca2+ concentration (0.1 microM) or addition of the Ca2+/calmodulin antagonist trifluoperazine (50 microM) was also without effect. Pre-incubation of the cells with pertussis toxin or with cholera toxin did not change GCl. In excised inside-out patches voltage-clamped at -85 mV, application of GTP[gamma S] influenced the "intermediate" Cl- channel, the Cl- channel type having the highest density in these cells, by increasing the number of transitions in a half-conductance state. The probability of the channel being in one of the two conducting states rose from 0.015 to 0.67, and the kinetics of the single-channel currents was changed so that, on average, it was similar to the whole-cell current kinetics seen after application of GTP[gamma S]. It is concluded that a G protein is directly interacting with these channels.

The role of protein kinase A (PKA) in the release of amylase from permeabilized pancreatic acini was investigated. Addition of cyclic AMP (cAMP) to permeabilized acini resulted in a potentiation of Ca(2+)-dependent amylase release, shifting the Ca2+ dose/response curve leftwards. As with protein kinase C (PKC) activation, this is due to an increase in the time of active discharge. The effect of cAMP was shown to be blocked by two inhibitors of PKA, H89 and the PKI-(5-24)-peptide. At low concentration, cAMP synergizes from phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), while at optimal concentrations cAMP and PMA are additive. PKA and PKC appear to work via similar, but not identical mechanisms.

The in vitro expression of bovine leukemia virus (BLV) in short-term cultured bovine peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) is associated with increased spontaneous lymphocyte blastogenesis. The purpose of this study was to determine whether intracellular pathways responsible for antigen- or mitogen-induced lymphocyte blastogenesis were also responsible for induction of BLV expression. The protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor 1-(5-isoquinolinylsulfonyl)-3-methylpiperazine dihydrochloride (3-methyl H7) decreased blastogenesis in a dose-dependent manner, as measured by [3H]thymidine incorporation, in unstimulated, lipopolysaccharide-stimulated and phorbol ester (PMA)-stimulated BLV-infected PBMC. Similarly, 3-methyl H7 decreased BLV expression, as measured by production of gp51 envelope antigen or p24gag antigen, in BLV-infected PBMC under the same conditions. Using an RNase protection assay, the inhibition of BLV expression by 3-methyl H7 was shown to be due to decreased transcriptional activity. The cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinase and cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitor N-(2-guanidinoethyl)-5-isoquinolinesulfonamide (HA1004) did not inhibit either BLV expression or blastogenesis of BLV-infected bovine PBMC. Additional evidence for the PKC-dependent expression of BLV was obtained by using a persistently BLV-infected B-lymphocyte cell line, NBC-13. Activation of PKC by PMA in NBC-13 cells increased BLV expression. 3-methyl H7 decreased the PMA-induced expression of BLV in NBC-13 cells in a dose-dependent manner, whereas HA1004 did not inhibit this expression. These results identify a mechanism for the induction of BLV expression through PKC activation and therefore indicate that latency and replication of BLV is controlled by normal B-lymphocyte intracellular signaling pathways.

During mitosis the lamins are found in a hyperphosphorylated and soluble state. p34cdc2 kinase (MPF), a protein kinase complex with a pivotal role during mitosis, has been found to phosphorylate the lamins and, in some cases, though not all, to cause depolymerization of the lamina in vitro. Due to the variety of protein interactions in the lamina, there is a probable requirement for multiple enzyme activities to effect its breakdown in mitosis. Using nuclear ghosts as substrate, we have fractionated a Xenopus mitotic extract into a lamin-releasing fraction (p34cdc2 kinase) and a fraction that inhibits p34cdc2 kinase-mediated lamin release if the nuclear ghosts are first preincubated in it. The lamin-release-inhibiting activity in the p34cdc2 kinase-depleted mitotic extract is, in turn, inhibited if PKI, a protein kinase inhibitor specific for PKA, is included in the preincubation reaction mixture. Furthermore, a similar degree of inhibition can be achieved by using purified PKA to preincubate the nuclear ghosts. This suggests that dephosphorylation of PKA substrate sites is necessary for lamin depolymerization.

1. The aim of the present study was to examine the effect of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) on K+ current in primary culture of mouse colliculi neurones and to identify the 5-HT receptor subtype that could be involved in this effect. 2. The voltage-activated K+ current of the neurones was partially blocked by 8-bromo adenosine 3':5'-cyclic monophosphate (8-bromo-cyclic AMP). This effect was mimicked by 5-HT and the action of 5-HT could be antagonized by H7, a non specific protein kinase inhibitor, and by PKI, the specific cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase blocker. 3. A similar cyclic AMP-dependent blockade of the K+ current was found with renzapride (BRL 24,924) and other 5-HT4 receptor agonists such as cisapride, BIMU 8, zacopride and 5-methoxytryptamine (5-MeOT). ICS 205,930, the classical 5-HT4 receptor blocker, could not be used in this study because it inhibited the studied K+ current by itself. However, the novel 5-HT4 receptor antagonist, DAU 6285 blocked the effects of 5-HT and renzapride on the K+ current. 4. The current was insensitive to the 5-HT1 and 5-HT3 receptor agonists (8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino) tetralin, RU 24,969, carboxamidotryptamine, 2-CH3-5-HT) as well as to 5-HT1, 5-HT2 and 5-HT3 antagonists (methiothepin, ketanserin, ondansetron [GR 38,032]). Moreover, these antagonists did not affect the actions of the tested 5-HT4 receptor agonists. 5. The present results show that part of the voltage-activated K+ current in mouse colliculi neurones is cyclic AMP-sensitive and the blockade of the current by 5-HT involves the 5-HT4 receptor subtype.The putative implication of 5-HT4 receptors in neuronal plasticity, via a blockade of K+ channels, is discussed.

A regulatory region involved in both autoinhibition and calmodulin (CaM) binding has previously been identified in the multifunctional Ca2+/CaM-dependent protein kinase (CaM kinase II). We have tested the role of various segments of the regulatory region in autoinhibition by the analysis of a series of truncation, substitution, and deletion mutants of the CaM kinase II alpha subunit (CaM kinase II alpha). Unexpectedly, the sequence Lys-Lys-Phe-Asn at positions 291-294, adjacent to the CaM binding domain, was found to be sufficient to maintain an inhibited state in a truncated form of the kinase. However, these residues are not essential in the context of the full-length protein, indicating the importance of additional residues from the overlapping CaM binding domain. We propose here a molecular model for CaM kinase II alpha based on the three-dimensional structure of the cAPK-PKI-(5-24) (protein kinase inhibitor fragment) complex. It is predicted from this model that autoinhibition is of the pseudosubstrate variety and that autophosphorylation of Thr-286 could occur by an intersubunit reaction in the holoenzyme complex.

Beta-Adrenoceptor agonists activate a time- and voltage-independent Cl- conductance in mammalian cardiac myocytes. To characterize the cellular signaling pathways underlying its regulation, wide-tipped pipettes fitted with a pipette perfusion device were used to record whole-cell current and to introduce nucleotides to the interior of guinea pig ventricular myocytes. Replacement of pipette GTP with GDP beta S prevented activation of the Cl- conductance by Iso, suggesting a requirement for G protein turnover. With GTP in the pipette, the effect of Iso could be abolished by the beta-adrenoceptor antagonist propranolol, and mimicked by histamine or forskolin. These actions of Iso and forskolin are mediated exclusively via cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA), because (a) maximal activation of the Cl- conductance by forskolin or pipette cAMP occluded the effect of Iso, and (b) switching to pipette solution containing a synthetic peptide inhibitor (PKI) of PKA completely abolished the Cl- conductance activated by Iso and prevented the action of forskolin, but had no further effect. These results argue against basal activation of the Cl- conductance, and make it extremely unlikely that the stimulatory G protein, Gs, has any direct, phosphorylation-independent influence. The muscarinic receptor agonists acetylcholine (ACh) and carbachol diminished, in a reversible manner, Cl- conductance activated by Iso or forskolin, but not that elicited by cAMP. The muscarinic inhibition was abolished by replacing pipette GTP with GDP beta S, or by preincubating cells with pertussis toxin (PTX), and was therefore mediated by an inhibitory G protein, presumably Gi, influencing adenylyl cyclase activity. Nonhydrolyzable GTP analogues (GTP gamma S or GppNHp) applied via the pipette did not themselves activate Cl- conductance, but rendered Cl- current activation by brief exposures to Iso or histamine, but not to forskolin, irreversible. The Cl- conductance persistently activated by Iso was insensitive to propranolol or ACh, but could still be abolished by pipette application of PKI. The data indicate that stimulation of beta-adrenergic or histaminergic receptors in the presence of nonhydrolyzable GTP analogues causes persistent activation of Gs and uncouples it from the receptors. We conclude that autonomic regulation of cardiac Cl- conductance reflects accurately the underlying modulation of adenylyl cyclase activity and, hence, that this system is a suitable mammalian model for in situ studies of the interactions between adenylyl cyclase, Gs, Gi, and forskolin.

The smooth muscle myosin light chain kinase (smMLCK) catalytic core was modeled by using the crystallographic coordinates of the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase catalytic subunit (cAPK) and a bound pseudosubstrate inhibitor peptide, PKI(5-24). Despite only 30% identity in amino acid sequence, the MLCK sequence can be readily accommodated in this structure. With the exception of the short B-helix, all major elements of secondary structure in the core are very likely conserved. The active site of the modeled MLCK complements the known requirements for peptide substrate recognition. MLCK contains a pseudosubstrate sequence that overlaps the calmodulin binding domain and has been proposed to act as an intrasteric inhibitor and occupy the substrate binding site in the absence of Ca(2+)-calmodulin. The pseudosubstrate sequence can be modeled easily into the entire backbone of PKI(5-24). The results demonstrate that the intrasteric model for regulation of MLCK by intramolecular competitive inhibition is structurally plausible.
