Phosphorylation of protein phosphatase 1 by pp60v-src decreased its activity towards phosphorylase kinase and glycogen synthase as well as towards phosphorylase a. Kinetic experiments indicated that the primary effect of phosphorylation was to increase the Km for each of the substrate proteins. There was little or no change in the Vmax for the reactions. The possibility that phosphorylation of protein phosphatase 1 altered its regulation by inhibitors-1 and -2 was also examined. Phosphorylation of protein phosphatase 1 did not prevent the reversible inhibition of the enzyme by inhibitor-1 or inhibitor-2 nor did it prevent the association of inhibitor-2 with protein phosphatase 1 to form the MgATP-dependent protein phosphatase. Protein phosphatase 1 is not a substrate for pp60v-src when it is complexed with inhibitor-2 to form the inactive MgATP-dependent protein phosphatase. Here we have shown that protein phosphatase 1 is also not phosphorylated by pp60v-src following activation of the MgATP-dependent protein phosphatase with glycogen synthase kinase-3 and MgATP. This indicates that the inability of pp60v-src to phosphorylate protein phosphatase 1 is not due to the change in protein phosphatase 1 conformation which accompanies the inactivation of the MgATP-dependent protein phosphatase. Rather, it appears to be the result of steric hindrance by inhibitor-2. This suggests that the pp60v-src phosphorylation site is closely associated with the inhibitor-2 binding site involved in the formation of the MgATP dependent protein phosphatase. The pp60v-src phosphorylation site was previously localized to a small (Mr less than or equal to 4000) domain which can be selectively degraded by chymotrypsin. Here we have shown that chymotryptic digestion increased the Km of unphosphorylated protein phosphatase 1 for each of the three phosphoprotein substrates used in this study. This effect was similar to that observed after phosphorylation of protein phosphatase 1. These results indicate that the pp60v-src phosphorylation site is in a region of protein phosphatase 1 which influences substrate binding and which may be near the active site.

Protein phosphatases-1, 2A and 2B have been identified in membrane and soluble fractions of Drosophila melanogaster heads. Similarities between Drosophila and mammalian protein phosphatase-1 included specificity for the beta subunit of phosphorylase kinase, sensitivity to inhibitor-1 and inhibitor-2, inhibition by protamine, retention by heparin-Sepharose and selective interaction with membranes. In addition, an inactive form of protein phosphatase-1, termed protein phosphatase-1I, was detected in the soluble fraction that could be activated by preincubation with MgATP and mammalian glycogen synthase kinase-3. Inhibitor-2 partially purified from Drosophila had an identical molecular mass to its mammalian counterpart, and recombined with mammalian protein phosphatase-1 to form a hybrid protein phosphatase-1I. Similarities between Drosophila and mammalian protein phosphatase-2A included preferential dephosphorylation of the alpha subunit of phosphorylase kinase, insensitivity to inhibitors-1 and -2, activation by protamine, exclusion from heparin-Sepharose and apparent molecular mass. A Ca2+-dependent calmodulin-stimulated protein phosphatase (protein phosphatase-2B) that was inhibited by trifluoperazine was identified in the soluble fraction. The remarkable similarities between Drosophila protein phosphatases and their mammalian counterparts are indicative of strict phylogenetic conservation and demonstrate that the procedures used to classify mammalian protein phosphatases have a wider application. Characterisation of the Drosophila phosphatases will facilitate genetic analysis of dephosphorylation systems and their possible roles in neuronal and behavioural plasticity in Drosophila.

Calcineurin, a Ca2+ and calmodulin (CM)-dependent phosphatase, has been shown to be present in high concentrations in the striatum. Using inhibitor-1(phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase) as a substrate, we found Ca2+/CM-dependent phosphatase (calcineurin) to be more than 2-fold higher than non-Ca2+/CM-dependent phosphatase in the rat striatum. In order to determine the cellular localization of calcineurin, striatal kainic acid injections were used to destroy neurons whose cell bodies are present at the site of injection. Glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) activity was measured as an indicator of destruction of striatal GABA-ergic neurons. After intrastriatal injection of 1 and 2 ug of kainic acid, there was a significant decrease of both calcineurin and GAD. However, injection of 0.5 ug kainic acid into the striatum reduced GAD activity by 81%, but had no effect on calcineurin phosphatase activity. Thus calcineurin does not appear to be equally distributed among all types of striatal neurons, but rather may be concentrated in neurons that are less sensitive to kainic acid than the GABA-ergic neuron.

Protein phosphatases present in the particulate and soluble fractions of oocytes of the starfish Asterias rubens and Marthasterias glacialis have been classified according to the criteria used for these enzymes from mammalian cells. The major protein phosphatase activity in the particulate fraction had very similar properties to protein phosphatase-1 from mammalian tissues, including preferential dephosphorylation of the beta subunit of phosphorylase kinase, sensitivity to inhibitor-1 and inhibitor-2, inhibition of phosphorylase phosphatase activity by protamine and heparin, and retention by heparin-Sepharose. The major protein phosphatase in the soluble fraction had very similar properties to mammalian protein phosphatase-2A, including preferential dephosphorylation of the alpha subunit of phosphorylase kinase, insensitivity to inhibitors-1 and 2, activation by protamine and heparin, and exclusion from heparin-Sepharose. An acid-stable and heat-stable protein was detected in the soluble fraction of starfish oocytes, whose properties were indistinguishable from those of inhibitor-2 from mammalian tissues. It inhibited protein phosphatase-1 specifically, and its apparent molecular mass on SDS polyacrylamide gels was 31 kDa. Furthermore, an inactive hybrid formed between the starfish oocyte inhibitor and the catalytic subunit of mammalian protein phosphatase-1 could be reactivated by preincubation with MgATP and mammalian glycogen synthase kinase-3. The remarkable similarities between starfish oocyte protein phosphatases and their mammalian counterparts are indicative of strict phylogenetic conservation of these enzymes. The results will facilitate further analysis of the role of protein phosphorylation in the control of starfish oocyte maturation by the hormone 1-methyladenine.

The complete amino acid sequence of bovine brain DARPP-32, a dopamine- and cyclic AMP-regulated neuronal phosphoprotein, which is a potent and specific inhibitor of the catalytic subunit of protein phosphatase-1, has been determined. The S-14C-carboxymethylated protein was subjected to enzymatic cleavage by endoproteinase Lys-C, endoproteinase Arg-C, trypsin, chymotrypsin, and Staphylococcus aureus V8 protease, and to chemical cleavage by cyanogen bromide. The overlapping sets of peptides were purified by high performance liquid chromatography and subjected to amino acid sequencing by automated Edman degradation to deduce the complete sequence. The protein consists of a single NH2-terminal blocked polypeptide chain of 202 residues, with a calculated molecular mass of 22,591 daltons, excluding the unidentified NH2-terminal blocking group. This molecular mass is significantly lower than earlier estimates based on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis or hydrodynamic measurements. The threonine residue that is phosphorylated by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (Hemmings, H. C., Jr., Williams, K. R., Konigsberg, W. H., and Greengard, P. (1984) J. Biol. Chem. 259, 14486-14490), and that must be phosphorylated for the expression of inhibitory activity, is located at position 34. The molecule contains only 1 cysteine residue and 1 tryptophan residue, at positions 72 and 161, respectively. DARPP-32 is very hydrophilic, and contains a stretch of 16 consecutive acidic residues from position 119 to 134. The predicted secondary structure suggests the presence of 47% alpha-helix, 7% beta-sheet, and 46% random coil, with 11 beta-turns. Comparison of the complete amino acid sequence of bovine DARPP-32 with that of rabbit skeletal muscle protein phosphatase inhibitor-1 revealed a significant amount of sequence identity in the NH2-terminal regions of these two proteins. The active region of inhibitor-1 has been localized to an NH2-terminal fragment (Aitken, A., and Cohen, P. (1982) FEBS Lett. 147, 54-58), the part of the molecule that is most similar to DARPP-32. These data suggest that these two protein phosphatase inhibitors may share a common structural basis for their inhibitory activity and may be related by a common ancestral gene.

The complete primary structure of inhibitor-2, a specific inhibitor of protein phosphatase-1, has been determined. The protein consists of a single polypeptide chain of 203 residues, and has a relative molecular mass of 22835 Da. This molecular mass is significantly lower than earlier estimates based on sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The threonyl residue phosphorylated by glycogen synthase kinase-3 is located at position 72. The molecule is very hydrophilic, lacks cysteine residues and the single tryptophanyl and phenylalanyl residues are at positions 46 and 139, respectively. The N-terminal alanyl residue is N-acetylated. Digestion with Staphylococcus aureus V8 proteinase, trypsin, or cleavage with cyanogen bromide, destroyed the biological activity of inhibitor-2, demonstrating that many large fragments (e.g. 1-49, 49-92, 67-101, 108-134, 142-182 and 163-197) are inactive. Digestion with clostripain generated a peptide comprising residues 25-114 which retained 2% of the inhibitory potency of the parent molecule. There is no sequence homology between inhibitor-2 and inhibitor-1.

The 'native' Mg-ATP-dependent protein phosphatase was isolated from rabbit skeletal muscle by a procedure that avoided the use of organic solvents or heating at 90-100 degrees C. The purified enzyme was composed of two major proteins (molecular mass 37 kDa and 31 kDa) that were present in a 1:1 molar ratio, and accounted for 70-80% of the material. The 37-kDa component comigrated with the catalytic subunit of protein phosphatase-1, and its identity with this protein was established by peptide mapping, and by its cleavage to the characteristic 34-kDa and 33-kDa fragments following incubation with chymotrypsin. The 31-kDa protein comigrated with inhibitor-2, and its identity with this protein was established by its heat stability, ability to inhibit protein phosphatase-1 at nanomolar concentrations, and its phosphorylation on a threonine residue by glycogen synthase kinase 3. It is therefore concluded that the 'native' Mg-ATP-dependent protein phosphatase is composed of the catalytic subunit of protein phosphatase-1 (37 kDa) and inhibitor-2 (31 kDa) in a 1:1 molar ratio. The 'native' Mg-ATP-dependent protein phosphatase had virtually identical properties to the enzyme reconstituted from inhibitor-2 and the 37-kDa catalytic subunit of protein phosphatase-1. Each preparation had a similar specific activity and was inhibited by identical concentrations of inhibitor-1. Both enzymes could be activated by incubation with glycogen synthase kinase-3 and Mg-ATP, or by Mn2+ and trypsin (or chymotrypsin). However, Mn2+ alone, or proteinase digestion in the absence of Mn2+, failed to activate either preparation. Incubation with glycogen synthase kinase-3 and Mg-ATP did not dissociate the 'native' or 'reconstituted' enzymes, whereas treatment with Mn2+ and trypsin decreased their apparent molecular masses from 70 kDa to 35 kDa. Incubation with chymotrypsin converted the 'native' and 'reconstituted' enzymes to forms that required preincubation with glycogen synthase kinase-3, Mg-ATP and inhibitor-2, in order to exhibit catalytic activity. The Mg-ATP-dependent protein phosphatase reconstituted from the 'nicked' 33-kDa catalytic subunit dissociated upon activation, in contrast to the enzyme reconstituted from the undegraded 37-kDa catalytic subunit. The results suggest that a 3-4-kDa fragment at one end of the polypeptide is involved in strengthening interaction between the undegraded 37-kDa catalytic subunit and the phosphorylated form of inhibitor-2.

The regional and cellular distribution of G-substrate, a 23,000-dalton protein substrate specific for guanosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate-dependent protein kinase, has been examined in mammalian brain using immunoprecipitation, radioimmunoassay, and peptide-mapping techniques. In rabbit brain, G-substrate was found to be highly concentrated in the cerebellum. The concentration of G-substrate in cerebellar cytosol was 27.2 pmol/mg. The concentrations of G-substrate in cortex, hippocampus, and caudate were only 1 to 2% of that found in cerebellum. Studies of neurological mutant mice lacking either Purkinje cells (PCD and nervous) or granule cells (weaver) suggested that, within the cerebellum, G-substrate is localized almost exclusively in Purkinje cells. A phosphoprotein present in noncerebellar brain regions, which co-migrated with G-substrate on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, was shown by peptide mapping to consist predominantly of phosphatase inhibitor-1. Phosphatase inhibitor-1, a potent inhibitor of protein phosphatase-1, is known to share several physicochemical properties with G-substrate. In contrast to the results obtained with G-substrate, the concentration of phosphatase inhibitor-1 was significantly lower in cerebellum than in other major brain regions. These and other data suggest that G-substrate may be a Purkinje cell-specific protein phosphatase inhibitor.

Previous studies indicated that the species of type 1 and type 2 protein phosphatases (PP-1, PP-2) in rabbit reticulocytes are similar to those of rabbit skeletal muscle and rabbit liver. Reticulocyte PP-1 was found to be selectively inhibited by the heat stable protein phosphatase inhibitor-2 (I-2) from rabbit skeletal muscle. Of interest was the observation that muscle I-2 appeared to regulate protein synthesis in reticulocyte lysates by inhibiting an eIF-2 alpha phosphatase with type 1 properties. In this study we have characterized reticulocyte inhibitor-2 (I-2) and find that its properties are similar to those of skeletal muscle I-2. (i) Both I-2 species are stable to boiling and to acid treatment, and have similar chromatographic profiles on DEAE-cellulose and on Blue Sepharose CL-6B. (ii) The two I-2 species migrate electrophoretically as 26-28,000 dalton polypeptides in SDS-acrylamide gels. (iii) Both skeletal muscle I-2 and reticulocyte I-2 selectively inhibit isolated reticulocyte PP-1 and endogenous PP-1 in the lysate. (iv) Reticulocyte I-2 co-chromatographs with PP-1 on DEAE-cellulose, and over 90% of lysate I-2 can be isolated from this partially purified PP-1. (v) Both inhibitor-2 species are active in the unphosphorylated state, but upon addition to lysates, both are phosphorylated by endogenous cAMP-independent protein kinase(s). In addition a preliminary analysis using a polyclonal antibody against muscle inhibitor-1 confirmed biochemical analyses which indicate that lysates are deficient in inhibitor-1.

The small molecular weight (+/- 9,000) heat stable deinhibitor protein, isolated from dog liver, not only protects the multisubstrate protein phosphatase from inhibition by inhibitor-1 and the modulator protein. It prevents the conversion of the active enzyme to the ATP,Mg-dependent enzyme form brought about by the modulator protein, and also affects the activation of the ATP,Mg-dependent protein phosphatase, probably by stabilizing the enzyme in its active conformation during the reversible activation by protein kinase FA. Therefore the deinhibitor protein could be an important factor in the process of glycogen synthesis, which requires glycogen synthase and phosphorylase as dephosphorylated enzymes.
