Five major cAMP-binding proteins that differ in size and charge have been identified in neurons of Aplysia californica by photoaffinity labeling with [32P]8-N3cAMP. These proteins, which we believe are regulatory subunits of cAMP-dependent protein kinase, all differ from the major cAMP-binding protein of buccal muscle. We have compared the structures of these proteins by peptide mapping after chemical and proteolytic cleavage. These analyses indicate that the five binding proteins from nervous tissue and the major muscle protein are closely related to each other. For example, the three neuronal proteins that are most alike and the cAMP-binding protein from muscle have a similar, if not identical, Mr 20,000 domain that contains the 8-N3cAMP-binding site; beyond this domain they diverge. All six proteins appear to belong to a family in which homologous regions have been conserved to maintain common functions. We suggest that the regions of the molecules that differ mediate special functions such as ticketing to particular compartments of the cell. Evidence for regional assortment of the cAMP-dependent protein kinases according to structural type was afforded by subcellular fractionation of Aplysia nervous tissue; photoaffinity labeling of cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, and membrane fractions demonstrated a differential distribution of the five neuronal cAMP-binding proteins. Selective phosphorylation of specific substrates could be a consequence of the compartmentation of diverse cAMP-dependent kinases.

Brief incubation of partially purified preparations of hormone-sensitive lipase from rat epididymal fat pads with ATP, Mg(++), cyclic adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate and rabbit muscle protein kinase (phosphorylase b kinase kinase) resulted in enhancement of lipolytic activity (44-93%). Little or no activation was observed when either the cofactor mixture or the protein kinase was omitted. When the fat pads were incubated with epinephrine prior to homogenization, addition of kinase and cofactors to the soluble supernatant fraction caused no activation whereas good activation was obtained in preparations from paired fat pads not exposed to epinephrine. The results indicate that the cyclic AMP-mediated activation of hormone-sensitive lipase in adipose tissue involves a protein phosphorylation step. Whether the lipase itself is phosphorylated and thus activated or whether the protein kinase is activating a mediating enzyme, in analogy with its action in the glycogen phosphorylase system, remains to be determined.

The dephosphorylation of phosphorylase kinase by four rabbit skeletal muscle protein phosphatases was studied. The four enzymes used were preparations of protein phosphatases C-I, C-II, H-I, and H-II. Phosphatases C-I, C-II, and H-II were obtained as homogeneous preparations using procedures previously developed. Phosphatase H-I was purified 644-fold from rabbit skeletal muscle for the purposes of this study, and was the major phosphorylase phosphatase activity in the tissue extract. Phosphatases C-I and H-I were relatively specific for removal of the beta subunit phosphate of phosphorylase kinase, this occurring at rates approximately 100 times more rapidly than the removal of the alpha subunit phosphate. In contrast, phosphatases C-II and H-II readily dephosphorylated both the alpha and beta subunits, although the alpha subunit phosphate release occurred at rates about twice that of the beta subunit phosphate. These studies show that skeletal muscle contains two phosphatases capable of acting on phosphorylase kinase, and that these have different specificities as represented by phosphatases H-I and C-I on the one hand, and phosphatases C-II and H-II on the other hand. These studies also provided unequivocal evidence that dephosphorylation of the beta subunit of phosphorylase kinase is solely involved in the inactivation of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase-activated enzyme. When autophosphorylated phosphorylase kinase was used as the substrate, the four phosphatases displayed similar general specificities as they did toward the cAMP-dependent protein kinase-activated enzyme. With none of the phosphatases examined was there any evidence that alpha subunit phosphorylation affected the rate of beta subunit dephosphorylation.

Cyclic adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP)-dependent phosphorylation of endogenous plasma membrane proteins catalyzed by an endogenous plasma membrane protein kinase was assayed in purified plasma membrane preparations derived from nontransformed, methylcholanthrene-transformed, and simian virus 40 (SV40)-transformed BALB/3T3 cells. In nontransformed cells, cyclic AMP stimulated the phosphorylation of two proteins with molecular weights of 24,000 and 14,000. The labeling of these proteins could be inhibited by rabbit skeletal muscle protein kinase inhibitor. In methylcholanthrene-transformed cells, no cyclic AMP-dependent phosphorylation of endogenous plasma membrane proteins was observed. SV40-transformed cells also showed markedly decreased cyclic AMP-dependent phosphorylation of both endogenous plasma membrane substrates. Addition of exogenous cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase from bovine kidney to plasma membrane preparations isolated from methylcholanthrene or SV40-transformed isolated from methylcholanthrene or SV40-transformed cells, however, catalyzed the cyclic AMP-dependent phosphorylation of both the M.W. 24,000 and M.W. 14,000 substrates. These data show that the plasma membranes of transformed cells have a defect in an endogenous cyclic AMP-dependent phosphorylation system and that this defect can be corrected by addition of an exogenous cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase.

The rate of release of bound c[3H]AMP from the two types (A and B) of cAMP binding sites on the regulatory subunit dimer (R2I) of rabbit muscle protein kinase I was studied in the presence of the catalytic (C) subunit of protein kinase. Rebinding of released c[3H]AMP was avoided by using highly diluted reactants or adding unlabeled cAMP or its analogues. No significant C-induced dissociation of R2I-(c[3H]AMP)4 occurred in the absence of Mg2+-ATP. Of the two options that one or two molecules of C are required to induce the release of c[3H]AMP bound to R2I, only the first one was compatible with the first-order dependence on [C] of the rate of release of c[3H]AMP observed over a wide range of C concentrations. In the absence of added unlabeled cyclic nucleotide, the rate of the C-induced release of c[3H]AMP was the same from site A and site B. The apparent second-order rate constant for the association of C to R2I(c[3H]AMP)4 was 6 X 10(6) M-1 s-1 (37 degrees C, 0.15 M KCl). Raising the concentration of unlabeled cAMP in the medium up to 1 microM decreased by up to 50% the rate of the C-induced release of bound c[3H]AMP from both sites. This is explained by assuming that the association of one molecule of C to R2I(c-[3H]AMP)4 leads to the release of c[3H]AMP first from one R subunit and subsequently, by a process that can be blocked by about 1 microM cAMP, from the other R subunit. A further rise of the cAMP concentration decreased the rate of release from site B only, so that the C-induced release of c[3H]AMP occurred almost exclusively from site A at very high concentrations of cAMP. This suggests that c[3H]AMP is released first from site A and that this vacant site by interacting with cAMP inhibits the release of c[3H]AMP from site B of the same R subunit. The role of site A in controlling the C-induced release was further supported by the finding that several cAMP analogues inhibited the release with potencies correlating with their affinities for site A. The C-induced release of c[3H]AMP from aged R2I was about 10 times slower than that from fresh R2I. No significant C-induced release of c[3H]AMP was observed from the monomeric fragment obtained by limited trypsin treatment of R2(1).

Protein kinase activity (EC 2.7.1.37) of buffalo spermatozoa is distributed in the head (22%) and midpieces + tails (74%). Extraction of sperm heads with 0.1% Triton X-100 solubilized 35--40 of the protein kinase activity and the remaining 60--65% was associated tightly with the sperm chromatin. That the sperm chromatin preparation was pure was established by recording its spectrum at 320/260 nm (0.07), determining its composition (protein:DNA ratio, 0.79), electron microscope examination and through the assay of marker enzymes. Extraction of the chromatin preparation with 1 M-NaCl only partly solubilized the protein kinase activity while treatment with DNase in the presence of dithiothreitol inactivated the nuclear protein kinase. The chromatin-associated protein kinase activity had a broad pH optimum (7.6--8.4), an essential requirement for Mg2+ and ATP as a phosphate donor. Histones and non-histone proteins served as substrates, the preferred substrate being arginine rich histone VIII followed by casein and phosvitin. Nuclear protein kinase activity was neither stimulated by cyclic AMP nor inhibited by purified muscle protein kinase inhibitor. It is suggested that chromatin-associated protein kinase (Type III protein kinase) may be involved in the control of DNA-template activity.

A protein kinase that causes phosphorylation of serine and threonine residues of casein has been partially purified from goat cauda-epididymal sperm plasma membrane and characterized. The kinase, solubilized from the membrane with 1.0% Triton X-100, was purified to 480-fold by using DEAE-cellulose and casein-Sepharose affinity chromatographic techniques. The kinase is a strongly basic protein with pI of 9.5. The enzyme has a molecular mass of 310 kilodaltons as estimated by Sephacryl S-300 gel exclusion. The kinase showed affinity for protein substrates in the order membrane proteins > casein > phosvitin > histone > protamine. The apparent Km values of the kinase for casein and membrane proteins were 1 and 0.15 mg/mL, respectively. The synthetic peptides Kemptide and poly(Glu80Tyr20) did not serve as substrates of the enzyme. ATP, rather than GTP or PP(i), is the donor of phosphate for the phosphorylation reaction. Cyclic AMP and GMP, NaCl (0.25 M), KCl (0.25 M), Ca2+, calmodulin, phosphatidylserine, and muscle protein kinase inhibitor had no appreciable effect on the kinase activity. Heparin (0.5 microgram/mL) showed high affinity for inhibiting only 40% of the kinase activity, whereas polyamines at a relatively high concentration (5 mM) inhibited 40-50% of the enzymic activity. The kinase appears to be distinct from other protein kinases including casein kinases. The activity of the kinase derived from the purified sperm plasma membrane was markedly (approximately 90%) lost when the intact spermatozoa were pretreated with diazonium salt of sulfanilic acid, a membrane nonpenetrating surface probe.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Acting through a cAMP-cAMP-dependent protein kinase (cAPK) cascade, members of two neuropeptide families, the small cardioactive peptides and myomodulins, modulate contraction amplitude and relaxation rate in the accessory radula closer (ARC) muscle of the marine mollusc Aplysia californica. An approximately 750-kDa phosphoprotein was identified in the ARC muscle as the major substrate for cAPK activated either by application of neuropeptides or by peptides released by motorneuron stimulation at physiological frequencies. Immunoblot and immunoelectron microscopy experiments revealed the widespread presence of this protein in Aplysia muscles and its colocalization with contractile filaments in the ARC muscle. Sequence analysis of proteolytic peptide fragments derived from the protein indicated that it is structurally related to the muscle protein twitchin. Finally, the level of neuropeptide-induced phosphorylation of the protein correlated well with peptidergic modulation of the relaxation rate of the muscle. We propose that twitchin in Aplysia, and perhaps in other species, may mediate the modulation of the relaxation rate of muscle contractions.

In this study we demonstrate that recombinant rabbit muscle protein phosphatase-1 immobilized on CH-Sepharose is an efficient affinity chromatography support for the isolation of subunits of phosphatase-1. The support was used to isolate the glycogen binding subunit of phosphatase-1 from muscle and nonmuscle rat tissues. Examination of the affinity-purified material from rat heart and liver showed that the major component was a 160-kDa polypeptide on SDS-PAGE. The identity of the purified liver 160-kDa polypeptide as the glycogen binding subunit was confirmed by the demonstration that it is capable of binding to glycogen, and is phosphorylated by the catalytic subunit of PKA. The novel observation was made that the phosphorylation was dependent on the presence of glycogen. Examination of the material from heart, lung, liver, kidney, and brain showed a similar phenomenon. Our studies show that this subunit is widely distributed in tissues. The affinity support was also efficient in the isolation of the NIPP-1 (nuclear inhibitor of protein phosphatase-1) proteins from calf thymus. Examination of heat-treated extracts of rat liver led to the isolation of a novel 19-kDa inhibitory protein which could also be phosphorylated by PKA and may represent the rat liver homolog of calf thymus NIPP-1.

This study was designed to evaluate the role of phosphatidylinositol (PI3) kinase, p70 S6 kinase (p70S6K), and mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase in the regulation of muscle protein metabolism by insulin and insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I). Wortmannin and LY294002 (inhibitors of P13 kinase) both abolished the stimulation of protein synthesis by insulin or IGF-I in epitrochlearis muscle incubated in vitro. LY294002 also totally reversed the antiproteolytic action of these hormones. Although p70S6K activation by insulin and IGF-I may be mediated by PI3 kinase in epitrochlearis muscle, the specific inhibition of this kinase by rapamycin caused only partial (25%) inhibition of the stimulation of protein synthesis by these two hormones. Rapamycin had no effect on proteolysis. Finally, insulin or IGF-I did not stimulate MAP kinase activity at any of the times tested (2-25 min), suggesting that this protein kinase was not directly involved in the regulation of muscle protein metabolism. These observations provide evidence that PI3 kinase and p70S6K, but not MAP kinase, play a role in the regulation of muscle protein turnover by insulin or IGF-I.
