We have studied the effect of protein phosphokinase (EC 2.7.1.37; ATP:protein phosphotransferase) and phosphoprotein phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.16; phosphoprotein phosphohydrolase) on reverse transcriptase (RNA-dependent DNA nucleotidyltransferase) activity of Rous sarcoma virus. Protein kinase from Rous sarcoma virus-transformed chick embryo fibroblasts was purified by DEAE-cellulose chromatography, Sephadex gel filtration, and isoelectric focusing. Purified reverse transcriptase from Rouse sarcoma virus was preincubated with protein kinase and ATP under conditions allowing incorporation of phosphate into substrate protein. After the preincubation, reverse transcriptase activity was assayed in the presence of poly(rA).oligo(dT) as template. A 2- to 5-fold increase of reverse transcriptase activity was found after the preincubation of reverse transcriptase with protein kinase and ATP. Incubation of reverse transcriptase with heat-treated, inactive protein kinase and ATP had no effect on transcriptase activity. When the transcriptase preparation was incubated with protein kinase and [gamma-32P]ATP and subsequently purified by chromatography on phosphocellulose and Sephadex gel filtration, significant amounts of 32P-labeled proteins were found in the fractions exhibiting reverse transcriptase activity, suggesting 32P incorporation into transcriptase or transcriptase-associated proteins. A 20-60% decrease of reverse transcriptase activity was observed after incubation of reverse transcriptase with phosphatase. The results suggest that phosphorylative modification of reverse transcriptase may be critical in the regulation of reverse transcriptase-catalyzed DNA synthesis.

Plasma membranes have been prepared from porcine thyroid glands using sucrose gradients. The fractions having a density in sucrose of 1.18 g/ml mainly contained plasma membranes and were moderately contaminated with other subcellular components as shown by marker enzyme data. Purified plasma membranes incubated in the presence of [32-P]gamma ATP incorporated 32-P. Kinetics of incorporation of 32-P into endogenous substrates studied in various buffers and with increasing ATP concentration suggest a phosphodephosphorylating system related to cAMP-dependent protein kinase and phosphoprotein phosphatase activities. The two enzymatic activities associated with plasma membranes have been demonstrated using exogenous substrates. cAMP increases and fluoride ions decrease the extent of membrane phosphorylation. The specific activity of protein kinase was 10-12 times higher than in the initial homogenate and was only slightly enhanced in the presence of 0.5% Nonidet as compared to microsomal fraction. cAMP binding to membrane proteins was 3 times higher than to the other particulate fractions. TSH present in the incubating medium or added after 5 min of 32-P labelling induced a rapid stimulation of endogenous phosphorylation followed by a rapid decrease. Phosphorylated membrane substrates were analyzed: high voltage paper electrophoresis after partial hydrolysis indicated that [32-P]phosphate is incorporated into serine and threonine residues as o-phosphate derivatives. SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed several 32--labelled fractions. When enhanced by cAMP, no specific phosphorylation of protein components was observed.

Both E. coli and calf thymus DNA polymerase can be phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase and phosphorylation appears to stimulate the DNA polymerase reaction. Conversely, dephosphorylation of the polymerase molecule, by a protein phosphatase, inhibits the polymerase reaction.

Partially purified rabbit skeletal muscle phosphorylase phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.17; phosphoprotein phosphohydrolase) was inactivated when it was incubated with exogenous cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (EC 2.7.1.37; ATP:protein phosphotransferase), cyclic AMP, and ATP-Mg. Subsequent separation of the phosphatase by acrylamide gel electrophoresis or sucrose density centrifugation resulted in reactivation of the enzyme. The phosphatase decreased in molecular weight from approximately 70,000 to 52,000, and a phosphorylated inhibitor with molecular weight of 26,000 was found. Reactivation of phosphatase also occurred when it was incubated with MnCl2 or trypsin. The inhibitor was effective at less than 10(-8) M and was relatively heat stable. Its activity was destroyed by tryptic digestion and by dephosphorylation by a Mn-stimulated phosphatase. These observations support the possibility that phosphorylase phosphatase activity is controlled by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase and a Mn-stimulated phosphatase by a reaction involving phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of a protein phosphatase inhibitor.

Incubation of purified cyclic guanosine 3':5'-monophospate-dependent protein kinase with [gamma-32P]ATP and Mg2+ led to formation of one 32P-labeled protein, Mr = 75,000, which corresponded to the single protein band detected after polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulfate. When electrophoresis was performed without detergent, the labeled protein coincided with the position of cGMP-dependent protein kinase activity. Phosphorylation was enhanced severalfold by either histone or cAMP and was inhibited by the addition of cGMP. Low concentrations of cGMP blocked the stimulatory effects of cAMP or histone (or both). Since neither cAMP-dependent protein kinase nor cGMP-dependent phosphoprotein phosphatase activities were detected in the purified enzyme, we concluded that the cGMP-dependent protein kinase is a substrate for its own phosphotransferase activity and that other protein substrates (histone) and cyclic nucleotides modulate the process of self-phosphorylation.

Properties of the ATP-dependent calcium transport system of heart sarcolemma are presented. Calcium accumulation (with oxalate) in sarcolemma was increased due to cAMP-dependent protein kinase and phosphorylase b kinase. Protein kinase increased the Vmax of the sarcolemmal calcium accumulation without any detectable effect on the affinity for Ca2+. Both kinases failed to stimulate calcium binding. Protein kinase catalyzed phosphorylation of membrane proteins of molecular weights of 100,000, 25,000, and 14,000. Phosphorylase b kinase also catalyzed phosphorylation of these proteins. Protein kinase stimulated ATPase activity of sarcolemma. Sarcolemma contained endogenous protein kinase and protein phosphatase activities.

Similar time courses were obtained for decreases in the rate of calcium transport by cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles previously phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase and dephosphorylation of the 22,000-dalton phosphoprotein in these membranes. Dephosphorylation of the 22,000-dalton phosphoprotein can be attributed to a phosphoprotein phosphatase in the sarcoplasmic reticular membranes. This membrane-bound phosphoprotein phosphatase may play a role in the reversal of the relaxation-promoting effect of catecholamines on the heart.

The recently discovered heat-stable inhibitor protein of the Ca2+-activated cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase (Sharma, R. K., Wirch, E. & Warg, J. H. (1978) J. Biol. Chem., in press) has been purified 238 214-fold from bovine brain extract using an affinity column of the modulator protein--Sepharose 4B conjugate. The purified sample appears to be homogeneous as judged by sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) gel electrophoresis. The protein band has a mobility corresponding to that of a polypeptide of molecular weight 68 000. Since the heat-stable inhibitor protein has a molecular weight of 70 000 under nondenaturing conditions, it suggests that it is a monomeric protein. The protein has no inhibitory activity toward the cAMP-dependent protein kinase or protein phosphatase. The purified sample has been tested for various enzyme activities which include ATPase, GTPase, cAMP phosphodiesterase, cGMP phosphodiesterase, 5'-nucleotidase, and protein kinase. None of these activities are exhibited by the purified sample.

The photoaffinity label 8-azido[32P]adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (8-azido-cyclic [32P]AMP) was used to analyze both the cAMP-binding component of the purified cAMP-dependent protein kinase, and the cAMP-binding proteins present in crude tissue extracts of bovine cardiac muscle. 8-Azido-cyclic [32P]AMP reacted specifically and in stoichiometric amounts with the cAMP-binding proteins of bovine cardiac muscle. Upon phosphorylation, the purified cAMP-binding protein from bovine cardiac muscle changed its electrophoretic mobility on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels from an apparent molecular weight of 54,000 to an apparent molecular weight of 56,000. In tissue extracts of bovine cardiac muscle, most of the 8-azido-cyclic [32P]AMP was incorporated into a protein band with an apparent molecular weight of 56,000 which shifted to 54,000 upon treatment with a phosphoprotein phosphatase. Thus a substantial amount of the cAMP-binding protein appeared to be in the phosphorylated form. Autoradiograms following sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of both the pure and impure cAMP-binding proteins labeled with 8-azido-cyclic [32P]AMP revealed another binding component with a molecular weight of 52,000 which incorporated 32P from [gamma-32P]ATP without changing its electrophoretic mobility. Limited proteolysis of the 56,000- and 52,000-dalton proteins labeled with 32P from either [gamma-32P]ATP.Mg2+ or 8-azido-cyclic [32P]AMP showed patterns indicating homology. On the other hand, peptide maps of the major 8-azido-cyclic [32P]AMP-labeled proteins from tissue extracts of bovine cardiac muscle (Mr = 56,000) and rabbit skeletal muscle (Mr = 48,000) displayed completely different patterns as expected for the cAMP-binding components of types II and I protein kinases. Both phospho- and dephospho-cAMP-binding components from the purified bovine cardiac muscle protein kinase were also resolved by isoelectric focusing on polyacrylamide slab gels containing 8 M urea. The phosphorylated forms labeled with 32P from either [gamma-32P]ATP or 8-azido-cyclic [32P]AMP migrated as a doublet with a pI of 5.35. The 8-azido-cyclic [32P]AMP-labeled dephosphorylated form also migrated as a doublet with a pI of 5.40. The phosphorylated and dephosphorylated cAMP-binding proteins migrated with molecular weights of 56,000 and 54,000, respectively, following a second dimension electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulfate. The lower molecular weight cAMP-binding component (Mr = 52,000) was also apparent in these gels. Similar experiments with the cAMP-binding proteins present in tissue extracts of bovine cardiac muscle indicate that they are predominantly in the phosphorylated form.

LH-induced desensitization of the adenylyl cyclase system in a cell-free membrane preparation from preovulatory porcine follicles exhibits a critical dependence upon Mg and ATP (1). The membrane-rich preparation was found to contain endogenous cAMP-dependent and cAMP-independent protein kinases as well as phosphorprotein phosphatases. Endogenous phosphatase activity was enchanced by by Mn2+ and dithiothreitol. The addition of either Mn2+ or dithiothreitol to the porcine follicular membrane preparation incubated under desensitizing conditions promoted a specific concentration-dependent reversal of the LH-induced desensitization of the adenylyl cyclase system. The addition of exogenous phosphoprotein phosphatase, partially purified from procine follicular cytosol, also reversed LH-induced desensitization in a concentration-dependent manner. Boiling of the phophatase preparation prevented reversal of desensitization. The addition of either exogenous beef heart cAMP-dependent protein kinase or heat-stable protein kinase inhibitor did not modify LH-induced desensitization of the follicular adenylyl cyclase system. These results provide indirect evidence that while LH-induced desensitization is not mediated by a cAMP-dependent protein kinase, reversal of desensitization can be promoted by activation of endogenous phosphatase and the addition of a homologous phosphatase preparation.
