The stimulatory and inhibitory activities in the crude preparation of protein kinase modulator from dog heart were separated by Sephadex G-100 gel filtration, and the stimulatory modulator was further purified by DEAE-cellulose chromatography. The isolated stimulatory modulator, as the crude modulator preparation, stimulated the activity of the purified guanosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cGMP)-dependent protein kinases of both mammalian and arthropod origins in the presence of cGMP. The cGMP-dependent protein kinases were not activated by cGMP in the absence of either the isolated stimulatory modulator or the crude modulator. The stimulatory modulator, unlike the crude modulator had no effect on the activity of adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cAMP)-dependent protein kinase. The stimulatory modulator was a protein since its activity was destroyed by trypsin but was resistant to hydrolysis by DNase, RNase, phospholipase C, and lysozyme. The isolated inhibitory modulator, presumably the same as the protein inhibitor of cAMP-dependent protein kinase reported by Walsh et al. (Wash. D.A., Ashby, C.D., Gonzalez, C., Calkins, D., Fischer. E.H., and Krebs, E.G. (1971) J. Biol. Chem. 246, 1977-1985), depressed the cAMP-stimulated activity of cAMP-dependent protein kinase as did the crude preparation of protein kinase modulator. The isolated inhibitory modulator, unlike the crude preparation, was without effect on cGMP-dependent protein kinase. The present findings provide evidence to support that in mammals there are separate proteins for the stimulatory and the inhibitory activities of protein kinase modulator, in contrast to the modulator from an arthropod tissue (lobster tail muscle, Donnelly et al. (Donnelly, T.E., Jr., Kuo, J.F., Reyes, P.L., Liu, Y.P., and Greengard, P. (1973) J. Biol. Chem. 248, 190-198) which has been shown to possess both activities.

The signal transduction pathways of the dopamine-D1 receptor were investigated in two cell types stably transfected with the human D1 receptor cDNA, rat pituitary GH4C1 cells (GH4-hD1), and mouse Ltk-fibroblast cells (L-hD1). In both GH4-hD1 and L-hD1 cell lines, stimulation of the dopamine-D1 receptor induced a marked increase in cAMP accumulation. In addition, dopamine potentiated activation of L-type voltage-dependent calcium channels in a cAMP-dependent manner in GH4-hD1 cells. However, in L-hD1 cells, dopamine increased cytosolic free calcium concentrations ([Ca++]i) by mobilization of intracellular calcium rather than by calcium influx. This effect was correlated with a dopamine-induced enhancement of phospholipase C activity in L-hD1 cells. Pretreatment (24 h) with cholera toxin (CTX) was used to maximally activate the GTP-binding protein (G protein) Gs, causing a maximal elevation of cAMP levels and uncoupling the D1 receptor from Gs. The described actions of dopamine in both cell lines were abolished by pretreatment with CTX, indicating that CTX substrates (e.g. Gs) may mediate these actions. The blockade by CTX was not due to CTX-induced elevation of cAMP, since pretreatment with forskolin or 8-bromo-cAMP to activate cAMP-dependent protein kinase did not inhibit dopamine actions nor alter basal [Ca++]i. Pretreatment (1-3 h) of L-hD1 cells with forskolin (10 microM) or 8-bromo-cAMP (5 mM) altered neither the basal activity of phospholipase C nor basal [Ca++]i in L-hD1 cells but greatly enhanced the dopamine-induced increase of phosphatidyl inositol turnover and [Ca++]i. From these results we conclude that: 1) the dopamine-D1 receptor induces multiple and cell-specific signals, including elevation of cAMP levels in both GH and L cells, cAMP-dependent activation and potentiation of opening of L-type voltage-dependent calcium channel in GH cells, and a novel phosphatidyl inositol-linked mobilization of cellular calcium in L cells; 2) coupling of the D1 receptor to these responses involves CTX-sensitive proteins, possibly Gs; and 3) acute preactivation of cAMP-dependent protein kinase can markedly enhance, rather than attenuate, certain pathways of dopamine-D1 transmembrane signaling.

The activation of adenosine A1 receptors in DDT1-MF2 smooth muscle cells resulted in both the inhibition of agonist-stimulated cAMP accumulation and the potentiation of norepinephrine-stimulated phosphoinositide hydrolysis. Pharmacological analysis indicated the involvement of an A1 adenosine receptor subtype in both of these responses. In the absence of norepinephrine, the activation of the adenosine receptor did not directly stimulate phosphoinositide hydrolysis. The adenosine receptor-mediated augmentation of norepinephrine-stimulated phosphoinositide hydrolysis was pertussis toxin sensitive and was selectively antagonized by agents that mimicked cAMP (8-bromo-cAMP) or raised cellular cAMP levels (forskolin). This initially suggested that cAMP might partially regulate the magnitude of the phospholipase C response to norepinephrine and that adenosine agonists might enhance the phospholipase C response by reducing cAMP levels. However, neither the reduction of cellular cAMP levels by other agents nor the inhibition of cAMP-dependent protein kinase was sufficient to replicate the action of adenosine receptor activation on phosphoinositide hydrolysis. Thus, in the presence of norepinephrine, adenosine receptor agonists appear to stimulate phosphoinositide hydrolysis via a pathway that is separate from, but dependent upon, that of norepinephrine. This second pathway can be distinguished from that which is stimulated by norepinephrine on the basis of its sensitivity to inhibition by both cAMP and pertussis toxin.

We have investigated the effects of isoproterenol (ISO) and forskolin on carbachol(CCh)- and fluoroaluminate (AlF4-)-induced phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) hydrolysis, myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) production, 1,2-diacylglycerol, measured as phosphatidic acid (PA) formation, and contraction in the bovine iris sphincter smooth muscle. The data from these studies can be summarized as follows. (1) CCh (20 microM) stimulated significantly PIP2 hydrolysis, IP3 production, PA formation, and contraction. (2) Addition of ISO (0.1-25 microM), which raises the tissue cAMP level, to muscle precontracted with CCh attenuated PIP2 hydrolysis, IP3 production, PA formation and contraction in a time- and dose-dependent manner. (3) AlF4- (10 microM) induced a slow but progressive hydrolysis of PIP2, accompanied by parallel production of IP3, formation of PA, and contraction of the smooth muscle. The effects of AlF4- were dose-dependent and inhibited by deferoxamine, an Al3+ ion chelator. (4) Both forskolin (1-25 microM), which directly stimulates adenylate cyclase, and ISO inhibited the responses induced by AlF4- (10 microM) in a dose-dependent manner. (5) NaF (1-5 mM) had no effect on the activity of phospholipase C (PLC), purified from bovine iris sphincter. Furthermore, phosphorylation of the enzyme by catalytic subunit of protein kinase A had no inhibitory effect on PLC activity against PIP2. In conclusion, neither the muscarinic receptor nor PLC are the target sites for cAMP inhibition; instead the putative G-protein, which couples the activated muscarinic receptor to PLC, may be phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase. This could attenuate the stimulation of PLC by the G-protein, thus resulting in inhibition of PIP2 hydrolysis and consequently leading to muscle relaxation. These results demonstrate cross-talk between the cAMP and IP3-Ca2+ second messenger systems and suggest that this could constitute a regulatory mechanism for the process of contraction-relaxation in smooth muscle.

Two forms (I and II) of phospholipase C, specific for phosphatidyl inositol 4,5-bisphosphate, were resolved from bovine retinal rod outer segment (ROS) cytosol by DEAE-Sepharose column chromatography. The two isozymes showed reproducible differences in their catalytic properties in spite of similar substrate specificity and hydrolyzed specifically inositol 4,5-bisphosphate in a Ca(2+)-dependent fashion. In the presence of deoxycholate (DOC), pH optima were at 6.5 and 7.0 for phospholipase C I and II, respectively. Maximal phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate hydrolysis rates were obtained at 10(-4) and 10(-5)M Ca2+ for phospholipase C I and II, respectively. Treatment with cAMP-dependent protein kinase did not alter either isozyme activity. Further purification steps were prevented by the extreme lability of the isozymes.

The mechanisms by which phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) and cAMP attenuate the hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns 4,5-P2) induced by ligation of the T-cell antigen receptor complex (TCR) was studied in the human Jurkat T-cell line. It has previously been shown that stimulation of Jurkat cells with antibodies to CD3, components of the TCR, elicits a rapid and transient phosphorylation of phospholipase C (PLC)-gamma 1, the predominant PLC isozyme in Jurkat cells, at multiple tyrosine residues and that such tyrosine phosphorylation leads to activation of PLC-gamma 1. Prior incubation of Jurkat cells with PMA or forskolin, which increases intracellular cAMP concentrations, prevented tyrosine phosphorylation of PLC-gamma 1 as well as the hydrolysis of PtdIns 4,5-P2 induced by ligation of CD3. Dose-response curves of PMA and of forskolin for the inhibition of PLC-gamma 1 tyrosine phosphorylation and of PtdIns 4,5-P2 hydrolysis were similar. These results suggest that the inhibition of PtdIns 4,5-P2 hydrolysis by PMA and cAMP is attributable to reduced tyrosine phosphorylation of PLC-gamma 1. Treatment of Jurkat cells with PMA or forskolin stimulated the phosphorylation of PLC-gamma 1 at serine 1248. PMA treatment also elicited the phosphorylation of PLC-gamma 1 at an unidentified serine site. Phosphopeptide map analysis indicated that the sites of PLC-gamma 1 phosphorylated in Jurkat cells treated with PMA and forskolin are the same as those phosphorylated in vitro by protein kinase C (PKC) and cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA), respectively. Stimulation of Jurkat cells with antibodies to CD3 also elicited phosphorylation of PLC-gamma 1 at serine 1248 and at the unidentified serine site phosphorylated in PLC-gamma 1 from PMA-treated cells. Thus, phosphorylation of PLC-gamma 1 by PKC or PKA at serine 1248 may modulate the interaction of PLC-gamma 1 with the protein tyrosine kinase or the protein tyrosine phosphatase; this altered interaction may, at least in part, be responsible for the decreased tyrosine phosphorylation of PLC-gamma 1 seen in PMA- and forskolin-treated Jurkat cells. Furthermore, in the absence of PMA, activation of PKC by diacylglycerol provides a negative feedback signal responsible for reducing the phosphotyrosine contents of PLC-gamma 1.

Rhodopsin kinase activity of Musca domestica was characterized in a reconstitution assay, using urea-treated eye membranes as substrate and a purified fraction of eye cytosol as the enzyme. Analysis of kinase activity in fly eye, brain and abdomen extracts by reconstitution assays revealed that fly rhodopsin kinase is an eye-specific enzyme. It preferentially phosphorylates the light-activated form of rhodopsin (metarhodopsin) and has little activity with other protein substrates. Rhodopsin kinase binds to metarhodopsin and is released from rhodopsin-containing membranes. Metarhodopsin is a poor substrate for kinases from tissues other than the eye, making it a unique substrate for rhodopsin kinase. Rhodopsin kinase is inhibited by heparin, but not by the protein inhibitor of cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Its Km for ATP is 9 microM. Since fly rhodopsin is coupled to phospholipase C, studies of the interaction of rhodopsin with rhodopsin kinase can be useful in analysis of the reactions that lead to termination of the inositol-phospholipid-signaling pathway.

The effect of the beta-adrenergic receptor agonist isoproterenol on guanine nucleotide-dependent phospholipase C (PLC) activity was examined in turkey erythrocyte membranes prepared from [3H]inositol-labeled turkey erythrocytes. In the presence of guanosine 5'-(gamma-thiotriphosphate) (GTP[S]) isoproterenol caused a dose-dependent stimulation of [3H]inositol phosphate ([3H]InsP) formation. The activation of PLC by GTP[S] occurred after an initial lag period of 1-2 min and was followed by a sustained rate of [3H]InsP formation which remained linear for 4-5 min. Isoproterenol decreased the lag period for GTP[S]-induced [3H]InsP formation and increased PLC activity at all time points following this lag. Consequently, isoproterenol shifted the dose-response curve for GTP[S] to the left (10-fold) and increased the maximal response. The EC50 value for isoproterenol-induced activation of PLC was 104 +/- 17 nM. Isoproterenol also potentiated GTP-dependent PLC activity but was ineffective in stimulating the enzyme in the presence of AIF4-. The PLC activation by isoproterenol was completely inhibited by propanolol and atenolol but was unaffected by prazosin or yohimbine. Although GTP[S] and isoproterenol could increase cAMP formation in this membrane preparation, the isoproterenol-induced stimulation of PLC occurred in the absence of ATP and was independent of cAMP formation. Furthermore, addition of cAMP, 8-bromo-cAMP, forskolin, or either the regulatory or catalytic subunits of cAMP-dependent protein kinase failed to stimulate [3H]InsP formation and had no effect on the responses elicited by GTP[S] and isoproterenol. Isoproterenol also stimulated [3H]InsP2 and [3H]InsP3 production in intact erythrocytes. Cholera toxin had no effect on [3H]InsP formation in the intact cells under conditions where it stimulated cAMP accumulation. In addition, the activation of PLC by GTP[S] and isoproterenol was unaffected in membranes prepared from cholera toxin-treated erythrocytes. These data demonstrate that stimulation of turkey erythrocyte beta-adrenergic receptors by isoproterenol results in a direct activation of guanine nucleotide-dependent PLC.

Forskolin-pretreatment of A431 cells reduced both intrinsic and epidermal growth factor (EGF)-induced EGF receptor phosphorylation, however, phosphorylation of phospholipase C-gamma (PLC-gamma) was stimulated under the same conditions. No significant difference was detected in the amount of phosphotyrosine of PLC-gamma between two cultures with or without forskolin treatment followed by EGF. On the other hand, phosphorylation of a 47 kDa protein (P47) which cross-reacted with an anti-PLC-gamma monoclonal antibody, was stimulated by both forskolin and EGF. Phosphorylation was exclusively on serine residues in this case. These results indicate that both PLC-gamma and P47 are phosphorylated by a cAMP-dependent protein kinase and the EGF-stimulated serine kinase, and suggest that serine phosphorylation of PLC-gamma has no effect on ligand-dependent coupling with the EGF receptor.

Intact secretory granules isolated from bovine adrenal medulla express tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) activity. Granule-associated TH sediments on continuous sucrose gradients with dopamine beta-hydroxylase, a marker for granule membranes, indicating that TH is associated with chromaffin granules. Membranes prepared from lysed granules retain TH, whereas granule contents are free of the enzyme. TH immunoreactivity was detected in granule membranes by immunoblot analysis using a polyclonal antiserum against TH. TH immunoreactivity cannot be removed from membranes by washes in high ionic strength buffers and is only partially removed from membranes by treatment with either urea or Na2CO3. TH can be removed from granule membranes by the detergents Nonidet P-40, Triton X-100, and 3-[(3-cholamidopropyl)dimethylammonio]-1-propanesulfonate. Treatment of membranes with a phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C did not remove TH, ruling out the possibility of a glycosyl phosphatidyl anchor. Fractionation of granule membranes by temperature-induced phase separation in Triton X-114 revealed that TH is recovered in phases in which integral (detergent phase) and hydrophobic (phospholipid phase) membrane proteins are typically found. By contrast, TH from adrenal cytosol fractionated exclusively into the aqueous phase along with other soluble proteins. Digestion of granules with various protease enzymes revealed that TH is resistant to degradation, suggesting that the enzyme is embedded within membranes. TH becomes phosphorylated when intact granules are exposed to the catalytic subunit of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase, indicating that at least the N-terminal region of TH is exposed on the cytoplasmic surface of granules. These results establish that a fraction of TH is an integral component of bovine granule membranes. The association of TH with granule membranes may play a role in coordinating TH activity and catecholamine release.
