Several observations suggest that cyclic GMP might regulate some aspect of neuromuscular physiology or metabolism in the lobster. Homarus americanus: lobster muscle is one of the richest known sources of cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinase, the preparation contains several phosphoproteins whose state of phosphorylation is affected by cyclic GMP more effectively than by cyclic AMP, and guanylate cyclase and phosphodiesterase are active in this tissue. However, no factor has yet been identified that alters lobster muscle cyclic GMP levels. We have screened extracts of neural and neurosecretory structures for the capacity to promote cyclic GMP accumulation in isolated exoskeletal muscles. Extracts of the sinus gland (a neurohemal organ found in the eyestalk) contain a factor that induces up to 100-fold increases in muscle cyclic GMP content, whereas extracts of other tissues are ineffective. This factor can also act on targets other than muscle, with hepatopancreas, testis, and neuronal tissue showing the largest responses. The sinus gland factor does not appear to affect cyclic GMP metabolism by depolarizing the preparation or by mobilizing extracellular Ca2+. The effect on cyclic GMP levels is dose-dependent and linear with time. Biological activity is destroyed by boiling and by 90% ethanol. It is also destroyed by trypsin, chymotrypsin, or pronase, which suggests that the factor is a protein or peptide. Both gel filtration chromatography and experiments using dialysis tubing with different molecular weight exclusion limits indicate that the factor has an apparent molecular weight of 5,000-12,000 daltons. A preliminary fractionation scheme, based on gel filtration, ion-exchange, and reverse-phase chromatography, gives greater than 1,300-fold purification. Our long-range goal is to purify this factor to homogeneity, compare it to other peptide hormones, and use it as a probe to evaluate the role of cyclic GMP at the neuromuscular junction.

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.

The amino acid sequence of histidine-containing protein (HPr) from Streptococcus faecalis has been determined by direct Edman degradation of intact HPr and by amino acid sequence analysis of tryptic peptides, V8 proteolytic peptides, thermolytic peptides, and cyanogen bromide cleavage products. HPr from S. faecalis was found to contain 89 amino acid residues, corresponding to a molecular weight of 9438. The amino acid sequence of HPr from S. faecalis shows extended homology to the primary structure of HPr proteins from other bacteria. Besides the phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent phosphorylation of a histidyl residue in HPr, catalyzed by enzyme I of the bacterial phosphotransferase system, HPr was also found to be phosphorylated at a seryl residue in an ATP-dependent protein kinase catalyzed reaction [Deutscher, J., & Saier, M. H., Jr. (1983) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 80, 6790-6794]. The site of ATP-dependent phosphorylation in HPr of S. faecalis has now been determined. [32P]P-Ser-HPr was digested with three different proteases, and in each case, a single labeled peptide was isolated. Following digestion with subtilisin, we obtained a peptide with the sequence -(P)Ser-Ile-Met-. Using chymotrypsin, we isolated a peptide with the sequence -Ser-Val-Asn-Leu-Lys-(P)Ser-Ile-Met-Gly-Val-Met-. The longest labeled peptide was obtained with V8 staphylococcal protease. According to amino acid analysis, this peptide contained 36 out of the 89 amino acid residues of HPr. The following sequence of 12 amino acid residues of the V8 peptide was determined: -Tyr-Lys-Gly-Lys-Ser-Val-Asn-Leu-Lys-(P)Ser-Ile-Met-.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Glycogen synthase I was purified from rat skeletal muscle. On sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, the enzyme migrated as a major band with a subunit Mr of 85,000. The specific activity (24 units/mg protein), activity ratio (the activity in the absence of glucose-6-P divided by the activity in the presence of glucose-6-P X 100) (92 +/- 2) and phosphate content (0.6 mol/mol subunit) were similar to the enzyme from rabbit skeletal muscle. Phosphorylation and inactivation of rat muscle glycogen synthase by casein kinase I, casein kinase II (glycogen synthase kinase 5), glycogen synthase kinase 3 (kinase FA), glycogen synthase kinase 4, phosphorylase b kinase, and the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase were similar to those reported for rabbit muscle synthase. The greatest decrease in rat muscle glycogen synthase activity was seen after phosphorylation of the synthase by casein kinase I. Phosphopeptide maps of glycogen synthase were obtained by digesting the different 32P-labeled forms of glycogen synthase by CNBr, trypsin, or chymotrypsin. The CNBr peptides were separated by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and the tryptic and chymotryptic peptides were separated by reversed-phase HPLC. Although the rat and rabbit forms of synthase gave similar peptide maps, there were significant differences between the phosphopeptides derived from the N-terminal region of rabbit glycogen synthase and the corresponding peptides presumably derived from the N-terminal region of rat glycogen synthase. For CNBr peptides, the apparent Mr was 12,500 for rat and 12,000 for the rabbit. The tryptic peptides obtained from the two species had different retention times. A single chymotryptic peptide was produced from rat skeletal muscle glycogen synthase after phosphorylation by phosphorylase kinase whereas two peptides were obtained with the rabbit enzyme. These results indicate that the N-terminus of rabbit glycogen synthase, which contains four phosphorylatable residues (Kuret et al. (1985) Eur. J. Biochem. 151, 39-48), is different from the N-terminus of rat glycogen synthase.

Liver glycogen synthase has been isolated from newborn rats and phosphorylated in vitro with the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase. The isolated newborn synthase b is dependent upon Glc 6-P for activity, like adult synthase b, but has a high affinity toward Glc 6-P, unlike adult synthase b but like adult synthase a. Phosphorylation decreases the newborn synthase affinity toward Glc 6-P to the same value as adult synthase b. A comparison of adult and newborn synthase 32Pi-labeled trypsin and chymotrypsin peptide fragments by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis shows that the newborn synthase has structural properties significantly different from the adult enzyme. Thus, a fetal isozyme of synthase in the newborn rat could account, in part, for the difference in catalytic properties, relative to adult synthase.

The amino acid sequences surrounding three major phosphorylation sites in rat and bovine synapsin I have been determined by employing automated gas-phase sequencing and manual Edman degradation of purified phosphopeptide fragments. Site 1 is a serine residue phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase and by calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase I. The sequence around site 1 was derived from tryptic/chymotryptic phosphopeptides and overlapping cyanogen bromide cleavage fragments. This sequence, identical in rat and bovine synapsin I, is Asn-Tyr-Leu-Arg-Arg-Arg-Leu-Ser(P)-Asp-Ser-Asn-Phe-Met. Site 1 is located at the NH2 terminus of the protein, within the collagenase-resistant head region. Sites 2 and 3 are serine residues phosphorylated by calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II. The sequences surrounding bovine site 2 and site 3 were derived from tryptic phosphopeptides and overlapping fragments generated by cleavage with chymotrypsin, collagenase, and endoproteinase Lys-C. The sequence around bovine site 2 is Thr-Arg-Gln-Thr-Ser(P)-Val-Ser-Gly-Gln-Ala-Pro-Pro-Lys, and the sequence around bovine site 3 is Thr-Arg-Gln-Ala-Ser(P)-Gln-Ala-Gly-Pro-Met-Pro-Arg. Sites 2 and 3 are located within the COOH-terminal, collagenase-sensitive tail region of the molecule, separated by 36 amino acids. The sequences surrounding rat site 2 and site 3 were derived from tryptic phosphopeptides. The sequence around rat site 2 is Gln-Ala-Ser(P)-Ile-Ser-Gly-Pro-Ala-Pro-Pro-Lys, and the sequence around rat site 3 is Gln-Ala-Ser(P)-Gln-Ala-Gly-Pro-Gly-Pro-Arg. Thus, the sequences surrounding the four sites that are phosphorylated by calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II, namely sites 2 and 3 in rat and bovine synapsin I, exhibit a high degree of homology.

The changes in the quaternary structure of chicken skeletal muscle phosphorylase kinase during limited proteolysis by trypsin and chymotrypsin were studied. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate of the products of phosphorylase kinase limited proteolysis revealed a similarity in the structure of the alpha'- and beta-subunits and some differences in the structure of the gamma-subunits of the chicken and rabbit enzymes. Phosphorylation with the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (up to 2 mol of 32P/mol of alpha' beta gamma' sigma monomer) and autophosphorylation (up to 8 mol of 32P/mol alpha' beta gamma' delta monomer) increased the activity of chicken phosphorylase kinase 1.5-fold and 2.0-fold, respectively. The incorporation of phosphate into the alpha' and beta-subunits in the course of the protein kinase-catalyzed reaction was demonstrated.

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.

Calcium/calmodulin-dependent multifunctional protein kinases, extensively purified from rat brain (with apparent molecular mass 640 kDa), rabbit liver (300 kDa) and rabbit skeletal muscle (700 kDa), were analysed for their structural, immunological, and enzymatic properties. The immunological cross-reactivity with affinity-purified polyclonal antibodies to the 50-kDa catalytic subunit of the brain calmodulin-dependent protein kinase confirmed the presence of common antigenic determinants in all subunits of the protein kinases. One-dimensional phosphopeptide patterns, obtained by digestion of the autophosphorylated protein kinases with S. aureus V8 protease, and two-dimensional fingerprints of the 125I-labelled proteins digested with a combination of trypsin and chymotrypsin, revealed a close similarity between the two subunits (51 kDa and 53 kDa) of the liver enzyme. Similar identity was observed between the 56-kDa and/or 58-kDa polypeptides of the skeletal muscle calmodulin-dependent protein kinase. The data suggest that the subunits of the liver and muscle protein kinases may be derived by partial proteolysis or by autophosphorylation. The peptide patterns for the 50-kDa and 60-kDa subunits of the brain enzyme confirmed that the two catalytic subunits represented distinct protein products. The comparison of the phosphopeptide maps and the two-dimensional peptide fingerprints, indicated considerable structural homology among the 50-kDa and 60-kDa subunits of the brain calmodulin-dependent protein kinase and the liver and muscle polypeptides. However, a significant number of unique peptides in the liver 51-kDa subunit, skeletal muscle 56-kDa, and the brain 50-kDa and 60-kDa polypeptides were observed and suggest the existence of isoenzyme forms. All calmodulin-dependent protein kinases rapidly phosphorylated synapsin I with a stoichiometry of 3-5 mol phosphate/mol protein. The two-dimensional separation of phosphopeptides obtained by tryptic/chymotryptic digestion of 32P-labelled synapsin I indicated that the same peptides were phosphorylated by all the calmodulin-dependent protein kinases. Such data represent the first structural and immunological comparison of the liver calmodulin-dependent protein kinase with the enzymes isolated from brain and skeletal muscle. The findings indicate the presence of a family of highly conserved calmodulin-dependent multifunctional protein kinases, with similar structural, immunological and enzymatic properties. The individual catalytic subunits appear to represent the expression of distinct protein products or isoenzymes which are selectively expressed in mammalian tissues.

Calmodulin-dependent protein kinase was purified from porcine brain cytosol through sequential steps involving acid precipitation, DEAE-chromatography, and calmodulin-Sepharose chromatography. The purified enzyme contained a major Mr 50,000 and a minor Mr 60,000 peptide. Porcine brain tubulin was a major substrate for this kinase. Under optimal conditions 2.6 mol of phosphate were incorporated per mol of tubulin. The kinase phosphorylated both tubulin subunits at their carboxyl-terminal region. Limited proteolysis, using trypsin and chymotrypsin, of phosphorylated and unphosphorylated tubulins resulted in different cleavage patterns as determined by peptide mapping. Phosphorylated tubulin was unable to bind to microtubule-associated protein or to polymerize, but regained its assembly capacity after phosphatase treatment.
