A heat-stable, soluble component of brown adipose tissue from newborn rats was found to be readily phosphorylated by protein kinase of the same subcellular fraction. The concentration of this component in brown fat decreased with the age of the animals. A boiled crude microsomal preparation from rat liver was also phosphorylated by brown fat protein kinase. The GTP-linked phosphorylation of the endogenous heat-stable protein was not stimulated by ATP (in contrast to phosphorylation of histone). The maximum velocity of phosphorylation achieved with GTP was about 2.5 times higher than that with ATP as nucleotide substrate. This difference was not due to ATPase activity in the assay. With histone as the protein acceptor both activities were the same. The affinity of protein kinase(s) for ATP was lower with the endogenous heat-stable brown-fat protein and with boiled microsomes (Km of 0.21 mM and 0.17 mM, respectively) than with histone (Km of 0.05 M). No detectable ATPase activity was present in either acceptor protein. It is concluded that the 100 000 times g supernatant fraction from brown fat of infant rats contains two protein kinase activities. One preferentially uses ATP and histone as substrates and the other uses endogenous heat-stable soluble proteins and either ATP or GTP.

At least three mechanical changes characterize the response of cardiac muscle to agents that enhance cyclic AMP production. In common with other inotropic interventions, tension is augmented and the rate of tension rise is increased. The third response, acceleration of the rate of relaxation, is characteristic of the actions of beta-adrenergic agonists. These mechanical effects can be attributed to changes in (1) the amount of Ca2+ released during systole, (2) the rate of Ca2+ release at the onset of systole, and (3) the rate at which Ca2+ is reaccumulated by the sarcoplasmic reticulum at the end of systole. The ability of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinases to phosphorylate the cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum in vitro parallels stimulation of both Ca2+ transport and Ca2+-activated ATPase. The phosphoprotein formed in the presence of cyclic AMP and protein kinase has the chemical characteristics of a phosphoester, contains mostly phosphoserine, and has an electrophoretic mobility in SDS polyacrylamide gels that corresponds to a protein of 22,000 daltons. This 22,000-dalton protein, tentatively named phospholamban, thus differs from the acyl phosphooprotein formed by the Ca2+-transport ATPase, which as an apparent molecular weight of 90,000 to 100,000 daltons. Phospholamban has not been found in fast skeletal muscle, nor is Ca2+ transport accelerated by cyclic AMP and protein kinase in sarcoplasmic reticulum from these muslces which do not respond to beta-adrenergic agonists with accelerated relaxation. It thus appears likely that phosphorylation of phospholamban correlates both with an increased rate of Ca2+ transport by cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum in vitro and accelerated relaxation in the intact myocardium. Preliminary findings are consistent with the view that phosphorylation of phospholamban may be related to other actions on Ca2+ fluxes brought about by agents which activate adenylate cyclase in the myocardium, but these interpretations must remain speculative pending more definitive studies.

A manyfold increase in phosphorylation of cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) was seen when SR was incubated in the presence of a bovine cardiac cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase and cyclic AMP. This phosphoprotein had stability characteristics of a phosphoester in which the phosphate is incorporated largely into serine, and its formation did not required calcium ions, unlike the formation of acyl phosphoprotein intermediate of calcium-transport ATPase which is present within the same membrane. When examined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, the protein kinase-catalyzed phosphorylation occurred at a 22,000-dalton component of the cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum. This 22,000-dalton protein has been named "phospholamban" (lambda alpha mu beta alpha nu epsilon iota nu = to receive), based on its ability to receive phosphate from ATP. Phosphorylation of phospholamban by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase was associated with the stimulation of calcium transport by the cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum. This stimulation was accompanied by an increase in the calcium-activated ATPase activity, indicating that the overall rate of calcium transport rather than its efficiency is enhanced by protein kinase. The 22,000-dalton phopholamban was susceptible to trypsin. Brief digestion with trypsin in the presence of 1 M sucrose prevented subsequent phosphorylation of phospholamban, while leaving the calcium pump apparently intact. Incubation of trypsin-treated sarcoplasmic reticulum with cyclic AMP-depentent protein kinase did not result in the stimulation of calcium transport. These results may suggest that phospholamban is a modulator of the calcium pump of the cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum.

Sarcolemmal membranes isolated from guinea pig heart ventricles contained an ATP-dependent calcium-sequestering activity. Sarcolemmal calcium accumulation but not binding was enhanced by preincubation of membranes with exogenous protein kinase, with cyclic AMP, or with isoproterenol. Protein kinase (EC 2.7.1.37) increased the V of Ca2+ accumulation by sarcolemma without any significant effect on the affinity for Ca2+. The endogenous protein kinase activity present in isolated sarcolemma affected membrane phosphorylation. Cyclic AMP increased the endogenous kinase activity modestly, whereas histone increased it significantly. Exogenous protein kinase also catalyzed phosphorylation of these membranes. Endogenous and exogenous kinase-catalyzed phosphorylation of sarcolemma was hydroxylamine-insensitive. Ca2+-dependent ATPase (EC 3.6.1.3) (extra ATPase) activity of sarcolemma was also increased by protein kinase.

The use of polyethyleneimine-cellulose thin layer sheets to follow the phosphorylation of histone and decomposition of ATP catalyzed by an adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP)-stimulated protein kinase, protein kinase I, has made possible a more detailed analysis of the time course of these reactions than has been achieved previously be observing only recovered phosphorylated protein. When [gamma-32P] ATP was employed, significant error was introduced by the presence of 32Pi at the solvent front on these sheets, and this limited the accuracy of the available information. However, the analysis of assays performed with [U-14C] ATP was straightforward and appeared to have an accuracy comparable to that of the present standard assay. This appears to be the first use of [U-14C] ATP to assay protein kinases. Our physical characterization of protein kinase I showed it to be a homogeneous protein species by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis and analytical ultracentrifugation. Kinetic studies with protein kinase I indicated the absence of histone phosphatase and cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase activity. Furthermore, the ATPase activity seen is believed to be intimately associated with the protein kinase action, particularly in view of the observed dependence of the rate of Pi production on the presence of cyclic AMP. The kinetic data for the phosphorylation of histone catalyzed by protein kinase I under full stimulation by cyclic AMP are consistent with a double displacement mechanism.

Vinblastine-isolated microtubule protein from chick embryonic muscles has an enzymatic activity which catalyzes the formation of phosphatidic acid from diglycerides and ATP. The pH optimum (6.4), sedimentation on sucrose gradients (Mr = 85 000), and sensitivity to ions of this diglyceride kinase activity are different to those of a similar enzymatic activity present in 150 000 X g supernatants of chick embryonic muscle homogenates, suggesting that it is a different species which is associated specifically with the microtubules. The reaction requires a divalent ion (e.g. 0.4 mM Mg2+ gives half-maximal stimulation), and GTP can replace ATP rather effectively, especially at nucleotide concentrations lower than 50 muM. The sedimentation of the diglyceride kinase on sucrose gradients coincides with that of the microtubules-associated protein kinase (Mr = 75 000); the heat-stability and sensivitity to proteolysis of both activities are also very similar. Stimulation of one reaction by the addition of the corresponding exogenous substrate does not impair the phosphorylation of the other, and no radioactivity is lost from phosphatidic acid or the protein moiety upon incubation of pre-labelled microtubules with a large excess of unlabelled ATP or GTP. In addition to diglyceride and protein kinase activities (0.2 and 0.3 nmol 32P-transferred X min-1 X mg-1 microtubular protein, respectively), microtubules also contain an associated ATPase (2.8 nmol X min-1 X mg-1), which requires either Mg2+ or Ca2+, can hydrolyze GTP quite effectively, and sediments with a molecular weight of 95000. The results obtained are discussed in connection with the possible relationships existing among these enzymatic activities, as well as their probable role in microtubular functions.

The effects of hormonal status on protein kinase activity was examined in homogenates of rat liver. Protein kinase activity was evaluated from incorporation of 32P from [gamma-32P]ATP into protamine or histone as receptor substrates. Protamine phosphorylation in the presence or absence of cyclic AMP exceeded histone phosphorylation by at least a factor or two. Hypophysectomy markedly increased protamine phosphorylation in the presence or absence of saturating amounts of cyclic AMP. In contrast, hypophysectomy only slightly increased cyclic AMP independent phosphorylation of histone. These results could not be amounted for by differences in ATPase or protein phosphase activities. Cortisone (2 mg/day x 3) decreased total protein kinase activity in livers of hypophysectomized rats when protamine was substrate, but had no effect on the total activity toward histone. Growth hormone (100 mug/day x 3) significantly increased histone, but not protamine phosphorylation in livers of hypophysectomized rats. Administration of 5 mug of triiodothyonine/day to hypophysectomized rats also markedly increased the phosphorylation of histone, but not protamine when saturating amounts of cyclic AMP were present. These results support the hypothesis that liver may contain more than one type of protein kinase activity and that the different protein kinase activities can be separately affected by hormones. Such control distal to cyclic AMP might allow selective modulation of cyclic AMP-dependent processes in cells which carry out more than one such process.

The events involved in platelet shape change, aggregation, the release reaction and contraction are thought to be mediated by the availability of Ca2+. Increased cytoplasmic calcium, released from intracellular stores, triggers platelet activity, and increased concentration of adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cyclic AMP) inhibits platelet alterations. We have studied the hypothesis that cyclic AMP may regulate the level of platelet cytoplasmic calcium by stimulating calcium removal by a membrane system. Such a hypothesis would be consistent with the reversibility of most manifestations of platelet activation. Human platelets were sonicated and unlysed platelets, mitochondria and granules were removed by centrifugation at 19 000 X g. Electron microscopy shows that the sediment, after centrifugation of the supernatant at 40 000 X g consists to a large extent of membrane vesicles. Such preparations actively concentrate calcium, as measured by the uptake of 45Ca, and also have the maximal calcium-stimulated ATPase activity. Optimal calcium uptake requires ATP and oxalate, and release of calcium from loaded vesicles was stimulated by the calcium ionophore A23187 and inhibited by LaCl3. These data indicate that calcium was being actively concentrated within membrane vesicles. After washing of such preparations in the absence of ATP, their capacity to take up Ca2+ is reduced to an initial value of 2.8 nmol/mg protein per min. In the presence of 2 - 10(6) M cyclic AMP to which was added a protein kinase preparation from human platelets, up to a 3-fold increase of this rate of uptake was observed. These results suggest that in platelets, as in muscle, cyclic AMP is a regulatory factor in the control of cytoplasmic calcium. Although the cyclic nucleotide may have still other functions, it appears likely that the well-known inhibition of many platelet activities by high intracellular cyclic AMP concentrations is directly linked to the stimulation of the removal of Ca2+ from the cytoplasm.

Ca2+ uptake and binding and Ca2+-ATPase activity of cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) from spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) were compared to that obtained from normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats. Ca2+ uptake (172 +/- 3.7 nmol/mg of protein per min in WKY vs. 112 +/- 2.6 in the SHR, P less than 0.001) and binding (154 +/- 3.0 nmol/mg per min in WKY vs. 101 +/- 1.8 in the SHR, P less than 0.01) were decreased in the SHR. Ca2+-ATPase activity, however, was significantly higher in the SHR (118 +/- 3.1 nmol of P per mg of protein per min vs. 86 +/- 1.1 in the WKY, P less than 0.001), suggesting "uncoupling" of the ATPase to calcium transport. Cyclic AMP-dependent phosphorylation of SR was significantly decreased in SHR (0.71 +/- 0.05 vs 0.32 +/- 0.07 nmol of P/mg of protein per 10 min, P less than 0.001) and there was an excellent correlation between cyclic AMP-induced phosphorylation of SR and Ca2+ uptake (r = 0.81). Differences in both cyclic AMP-dependent phosphorylation and Ca2+ uptake between the two groups were evident at 10 weeks and increased progressively to 22 weeks of age. Differences in endogenous cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase activity may partly explain the decreased Ca2+ transport in SHR.

Electric stimulation (EC) of a suspension of native synaptic membranes of rat brain cortex in the Krebs-Ringer-glucose medium revealed Ca-dependent inhibition of Na+, K+-ATPase and inhibition of transport Ca-activated, Mg-dependent ATPase. The effects observed are not induced by a change in the SH-groups of the membrane proteins and are removed by an addition of total lipids of the brain (membrane protein: lipid = 5:1) or 0.35 mM novocaine. Cyclic 3',5'-AMP in concentrations of 0.1--1.0 mM causes an inhibition (up to 50%) of Na+, K+-ATPase of native synaptic membranes. The Na+, K+-ATPase activity of purified membrane preparations is not changed either by the cyclic nucleotide, or by EC. It is assumed that depolarization of excitable membranes results in structural changes, mediated by the activation of protein kinase, and manifesting themselves as labilization of protein-lipid ratios.
