Rat liver fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase was phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase to 2.6 mol phosphate/mol subunit but not by Ca2+/phospholipid-dependent and Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinases. It was demonstrated that phosphorylation of Ser-341 and Ser-356, and to a much lower extent, Ser-338, was dependent on the presence of intact arginine residues. This observation implicates that the intact three-dimensional structure of the substrate is necessary for phosphorylation of Ser-356 since the closest arginine is located at a six amino acid residue distance.

Transcription of the fbp1 gene, encoding fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase, of Schizosaccharomyces pombe is subject to glucose repression. Previous work has demonstrated that several genes (git genes) are required for this repression. In this report we demonstrate that one of these genes, git2, is the same as the cyr1 gene, which encodes adenylate cyclase, and that loss-of-function mutations in git2 cause constitutive fbp1 transcription. Addition of cAMP to the growth medium suppresses the transcriptional defect in git2 mutants as well as in strains that carry mutations in any of six additional git genes. Similarly, exogenous cAMP represses fbp1 transcription in wild-type cells grown on a derepressing carbon source. Different levels of adenylate cyclase activity in different git2 mutants, coupled with the result that some git2 mutants display intragenic complementation, strongly suggest that adenylate cyclase acts as a multimer and that different git2 mutations alter distinct activities of adenylate cyclase, including catalytic activity and response to glucose. Additional experiments demonstrate that this cAMP signaling pathway is independent of the S. pombe ras1 gene and works by activation of cAMP-dependent protein kinase.

In crude extracts of Candida maltosa, about 12 proteins are phosphorylated in the presence of cAMP or of a catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase. A strongly labelled protein spot occurred in the position of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase both after electrophoresis of crude extracts incubated with cAMP and of a partially purified fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase incubated with a catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase. No phosphorylation of the cytoplasmic malate dehydrogenase could be detected. From these results it was concluded that cAMP-dependent phosphorylation plays an important role in the catabolite inactivation of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase in Candida maltosa, as described for Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

6-Phosphofructo-1-kinase (PFK-1) from a variety of species and organs can undergo phosphorylation by cAMP-dependent protein kinase. In most studies the stoichiometry of the phosphorylation reaction was far below the expected minimum value of 4 mol phosphate/mol PFK-1 tetramer. The present study with rat liver PFK-1 and purified catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase was undertaken in order to find the maximum phosphorylation stoichiometry under well-defined conditions. Irrespective of whether PFK-1 had been first treated with purified protein phosphatase 2C or not, no more than 1.66 +/- 0.22 mol phosphate/mol PFK-1 tetramer was incorporated, the highest single value being 2 mol phosphate/PFK-1 tetramer. This stoichiometry was found to be independent from the method of protein evaluation (gel dye-binding assay or amino acid analysis) and from the concentration of PFK-1 in the phosphorylation system (15.6 nM-0.53 microM). The stoichiometry was not affected by the presence of allosteric ligands, fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase or the PFK-1-inactivating protein. The possibility could be excluded that partial proteolysis was responsible for the incomplete phosphorylation. Two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis gave no indication of the existence of two different subunits in rat liver PFK-1. Possible reasons why rat liver PFK-1 undergoes 'half-of-the-sites' phosphorylation are discussed.

Purified fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase from Saccharomyces cerevisiae was phosphorylated in vitro by purified yeast cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Maximal phosphorylation was accompanied by an inactivation of the enzyme by about 60%. In vitro phosphorylation caused changes in the kinetic properties of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase: 1) the ratio R(Mg2+/Mn2+) of the enzyme activities measured at 10 mM Mg2+ and 2 mM Mn2+, respectively, decreased from 2.6 to 1.2; 2) the ratio R(pH 7/9) of the activities measured at pH 7.0 and pH 9.0, respectively, decreased from 0.62 to 0.38, indicating a shift of the pH optimum to the alkaline range. However, the affinity of the enzyme for its inhibitors fructose-2,6-bisphosphate (Fru-2,6-P2) and AMP, expressed as the concentration required for 50% inhibition, was not changed. The maximum amount of phosphate incorporated into fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase was 0.6-0.75 mol/mol of the 40-kDa subunit. Serine was identified as the phosphate-labeled amino acid. The initial rate of in vitro phosphorylation of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase, obtained with a maximally cAMP-activated protein kinase, increased when Fru-2,6-P2 and AMP, both potent inhibitors of the enzyme, were added. As Fru-2,6-P2 and AMP did not affect the phosphorylation of histone by cAMP-dependent protein kinase, the inhibitors must bind to fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase in such a way that the enzyme becomes a better substrate for phosphorylation. Nevertheless, Fru-2,6-P2 and AMP did not increase the maximum amount of phosphate incorporated into fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase beyond that observed in the presence of cAMP alone.

Fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase from the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae has properties similar to other gluconeogenic fructose-1,6-bisphosphatases, but an unusual characteristic of the yeast enzyme is that it can be phosphorylated in vitro by cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Phosphorylation also occurs in vivo, presumably as part of a signalling mechanism for the enzyme's degradation. To probe the structural basis for the phosphorylation of yeast fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase, we have developed an improved procedure for the purification of the enzyme and then performed sequence studies with the in vitro-phosphorylated protein as well as with tryptic and chymotryptic peptides containing the phosphorylation site. As a result of these studies, we have determined that yeast fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase has the following 24-residue NH2-terminal amino acid sequence: Pro-Thr-Leu-Val-Asn-Gly-Pro-Arg-Arg-Asp-Ser-Thr-Glu-Gly- Phe-Asp-Thr-Asp-Ile-Ile-Thr-Leu-Pro-Arg. The site of phosphorylation is located at Ser-11 in the above sequence. The amino acid sequence around the site of phosphorylation contains the sequence - Arg-Arg-X-Ser- associated with many of the better substrates of cAMP-dependent protein kinase. The sequence of residues 15-24 above is highly homologous with the sequence of residues 6-15 of pig kidney fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase, showing 7 out of 10 residues in identical positions. The yeast enzyme, however, has a dissimilar NH2-terminal region which extends beyond the NH2 terminus of mammalian fructose-1,6-bisphosphatases and contains a unique phosphorylation site.

Glucose addition to yeast cells stimulates a cAMP overshoot with concomitant activation of cAMP-dependent protein kinase, which in turn rapidly phosphorylates fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase. The phosphorylated enzyme subsequently undergoes a slow proteolytic breakdown. Also, it has been proposed that phosphorylation represents the mechanism that initiates proteolysis. Here we present experiments carried out on a yeast mutant defective in adenylate cyclase [(1982) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 79, 2355-2359] in which extracellular cAMP triggers full enzyme phosphorylation but a scanty proteolysis, whereas glucose plus cAMP provoke both phosphorylation and complete proteolytic breakdown. Thus, besides a glucose-induced cAMP peak, which results in enzyme phosphorylation, other effects evoked by the sugar are indispensable for its proteolytic degradation.

In vivo labeled fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase was immunopurified from yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) cells that had been incubated in the presence of [32P] orthophosphate. Tryptic peptides from labeled enzyme were mapped by high performance liquid chromatography. Most of the radioactivity was found to be associated with the peptide Arg9 through Arg24, the same peptide which had been previously shown to be phosphorylated in vitro by cAMP-dependent protein kinase (Rittenhouse, J., Harrsch, P. B., Kim, J. N., and Marcus, F. (1986) J. Biol. Chem. 261, 3939-3943). The amino acid sequence analysis suggests that phosphorylation occurs at the same site, Ser11. We have also determined the extent of phosphorylation at Ser11 of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase in yeast cultures growing under various nutritional conditions by measuring the relative amounts of phospho- and corresponding dephosphopeptides in tryptic digests. Significant levels of phosphorylation of the enzyme were found in yeast cultures grown under gluconeogenic conditions that varied from 0.15 to 0.50 mol of phosphate per mol of enzyme subunit. However, phosphate incorporation rapidly increased to greater than 0.8 mol after addition of glucose to these cultures. An alternative technique, based solely on enzyme activity measurements, was also developed to estimate the extent of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase phosphorylation in yeast cultures. The results obtained with this technique agreed with those obtained by high performance liquid chromatography of tryptic peptides.

Changes in glycolytic flux have been observed in liver under conditions where effects of cAMP seem unlikely. We have, therefore, studied the phosphorylation of four enzymes involved in the regulation of glycolysis and gluconeogenesis (6-phosphofructo-1-kinase from rat liver and rabbit muscle; pyruvate kinase, 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase and fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase from rat liver) by defined concentrations of two cAMP-independent protein kinases: Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase and Ca2+/phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase C). The results were compared with those obtained with the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase. The following results were obtained. 1. Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase phosphorylates 6-phosphofructo-1-kinase and L-type pyruvate kinase at a slightly lower rate as compared to cAMP-dependent protein kinase. 2. 6-Phosphofructo-1-kinase is phosphorylated by the two kinases at a single identical position. There is no additive phosphorylation. The final stoichiometry is 2 mol phosphate/mol tetramer. The same holds for L-type pyruvate kinase except that the stoichiometry with either kinase or both kinases together is 4 mol phosphate/mol tetramer. 3. Rabbit muscle 6-phosphofructo-1-kinase is phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase but not by Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase. 4. Fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase from rat but not from rabbit liver is phosphorylated at the same position but at a markedly lower rate by Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase when compared to the phosphorylation by cAMP-dependent protein kinase. 5. 6-Phosphofructo-2-kinase is phosphorylated by Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase only at a negligible rate. 6. Protein kinase C does not seem to be involved in the regulation of the enzymes examined: only 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase became phosphorylated to a significant degree. In contrast to the phosphorylation by cAMP-dependent protein kinase, this phosphorylation is not associated with a change of enzyme activity. This agrees with our observation that the sites of phosphorylation by the two kinases are different. The results indicate that Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase but not protein kinase C could be involved in the regulation of hepatic glycolytic flux under conditions where changes in the activity of cAMP-dependent protein kinase seem unlikely.

Fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase from the yeast Kluyveromyces fragilis was found to have an apparent Mr = 155,000 and to be composed of four Mr = 35,000 subunits. The extent and rate of phosphorylation of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (Fru-1,6-P2) by yeast cAMP-dependent protein kinase were dependent on fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase inhibitors, 5'-AMP and fructose 2,6-bisphosphate (Fru-2,6-P2). In the absence of inhibitor, the enzyme was slowly phosphorylated with a maximum incorporation of 1 mol of phosphate/mol of enzyme. The presence of both inhibitors greatly increased the phosphorylation rate with a maximum incorporation of 2 mol of phosphate/mol of enzyme. The presence of only one inhibitor led to an intermediate rate of phosphorylation with 2 mol of phosphate incorporated/mol of enzyme. There was no significant change in enzymatic activity after phosphorylation. The estimated sedimentation coefficient of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase was lowered by 5'-AMP from 8.2 to 5.7 while Fru-2,6-P2 increased the S value to 8.5. The presence of either Fru-1,6-P2 or Fru-2,6-P2 prevented the 5'-AMP lowering of S value. The susceptibility of enzyme to partial tryptic digestion was not changed by the presence of 5'-AMP. The presence of both Fru-2,6-P2 and 5'-AMP led to the protection of Mr = 35,000 subunit from tryptic digestion while Fru-2,6-P2 alone led to a protection of an Mr = 30,000 peptide fragment. This peptide fragment did not contain the phosphorylation sites. Our results suggest that the rapid regulation of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase following glucose addition is controlled mainly by enzyme inhibitors.
