There is broad species variation in the type of cAMP-dependent protein kinase isozyme present in supernatant fractions of heart homogenates as determined by DEAE-cellulose chromatography, Isozyme I, which elutes at less than 0.1 M NaCl, is predominant in mouse and rat hearts; while isozyme II, which elutes at greater than 0.1 M NaCl, is the predominant type in beef and guinea pig. Human and rabbit hearts contain about equal amounts of the two types. The type I heart kinases are more easily dissociated into free regulatory and catalytic subunits by incubation with histone than are the type II kinases, and the separated regulatory and catalytic subunits of isozyme II of rat heart reassociate more rapidly than the subunits of isozyme I under the conditions used. The data from several experiments using rat heart indicate that the basal activity ratio of the protein kinase in crude extracts (approximately 0.15) is due mainly to basal endogenous cAMP and that cAMP elevation accounts entirely for the epinephrine effect on the enzyme. Addition of epinephrine and 1-methyl-3-isobutylxanthine to the perfusate causes a rapid (1 min) increase in cAMP, active supernatant protein kinase, and active phosphorylase in perfused hearts of both rat (mainly isozyme I) and guinea pig (mainly isozyme II). The elevation percentage in cAMP is about the same in the two species, but the increase in active protein kinase is greater in rat heart. If hearts from either animal are perfused continually (10 min) with epinephrine (0.8 muM) and 1-methyl-3-isobutylxanthine (10 muM), the cAMP level, active protein kinase, and active phosphorylase remain elevated. Likewise, all parameters return rapidly to the basal levels when epinephrine and 1-methyl-3-isobutylxanthin are removed. Most of the epinephrine effect on the rat heart supernatant kinase is retained at 0 degrees if cAMP is removed by Sephadex G-25 chromatography, although this procedure completely reverses the epinephrine effect in the guinea pig heart. The epinephrine effect on the rabbit heart kinase (approximately equal amounts of isozymes I and II) is partially reversed by Sephadex G-25. These species differences can be accounted for by differences in association-dissociation behavior of the isozymes in vitro. The data suggest that epinephrine causes activation of both isozymes. The activity present in the particulate fraction comprises nearly half of the total cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity in homogenates of rabbit heart. Triton X-100 extracts of low speed particulate fractions from hearts of each species tested, including rat heart, contain predominantly or entirely the type II isozyme, suggesting differences in intracellular distribution of the isozymes. The binding of the protein kinase to the particulate fraction is apparently due to the properties of the regulatory subunit component. Differences in topographical distribution of the isozymes could provide for differences in either physiological regulation or substrate specificity.

Protein kinase activity has been studied in four human adrenocortical tumors and compared to the one of the normal human adrenal. In two cases where the lack of action of ACTH was related to an anomaly of ACTH receptor, the protein kinase activity was normal. In the other two cases the ACTH receptor was normal, but the protein kinase activity was different from that of the normal adrenal. In one of these cases where the steroidogenesis response of isolated tumor cells to ACTH and DcAMP was higher than in normal adrenal, basal and cAMP stimulated protein kinase activities were significantly higher than those of the normal adrenal, but the activation constants of both nucleotides were similar to those of the normal gland. In the other case, the basal and the cAMP stimulated protein kinase activities were significantly lower, as well as the activation constant of cAMP. However, the binding affinity of 3H-cAMP was normal. Normal adrenal cytosol contains three protein kinases, as resolved by DEAE-cellulose, two of which designated I and II, are cAMP-dependent. The DEAE-cellulose chromatography of the last tumor showed a loss of isoenzyme II. In addition, the protein kinase eluted at the same molarity as that of isoenzyme I of the normal adrenal was not activated by cAMP. Therefore, the lack of response to ACTH of some adrenocortical human tumors may be attributed either to an anomaly of the ACTH receptor or to some defect of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase.

Protein kinase activity was detected and assayed directly on polyacrylamide gels after disc electrophoresis of the 100,000 X g supernatant fraction of brown adipose tissue of infant rats. Nine major bands of activity were detected, eight of which could be stimulated by cAMP or inhibited by the cAMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitor protein. This electrophoretic technique revealed heterogeneity in the cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity eluted from DEAE-cellulose by high concentrations of salt, but not in the peak of activity eluted by low concentrations of salt. The catalytic properties and substrate specificities of the kinases in the various bands were studied while the enzymes were still in the gels. The activity in each band differed from each of the others in at least one of these properties. The activities of the protein kinases in brown fat changed as the animals grew, and each band exhibited a distinct and unique developmental pattern. The major changes in kinase activities occurred in the immediate post-parturition period, then at 15 days after birth and at weaning. These developmental stages coincide with the periods during which the tissue undergoes changes in the rate of its proliferation, differentiation, and functional activity.

The heat-stable protein (protein kinase modulator), partially purified from fresh bovine heart, possessed the ability to inhibit and stimulate adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cAMP)-dependent protein kinase and guanosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cGMP)-dependent protein kinase activities, respectively. The inhibitory activity of protein kinase modulator on cAMP-dependent protein kinase was abolished almost completely by trypsin treatment, while the ability to stimulate cGMP-dependent protein kinase activity was resistant to trypsin. Fractionation by a linear potassium phosphate gradient on DEAE-cellulose column did not clearly separate both activities. Phosphorylation of cardiac microsomal component, "phospholamban" (molecular weight = 22,000), was inhibited almost completely by the saturating amounts of protein kinase modulator. This inhibition of phospholamban phosphorylation by protein kinase modulator was accompanied by a decreased Ca uptake rate that had been stimulated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase. These findings indicate that protein kinase modulator is functional in controlling the cAMP-dependent protein kinase-catalyzed phosphorylation of phospholamban and the rate of calcium transport, lending further support for the previously proposed mechanism, in which phospholamban is assumed to serve as a regulator of calcium transport in cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum.

Chinese hamster ovary cells exhibit several characteristic morphological and physiological responses upon treatment with agents which increase the intracellular level of adenosine 3':5'-phosphate (cyclic AMP). To better understand the mechanism of these cyclic AMP-mediated responses, we separated two cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinases (ATP:protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37) (protein kinase I and protein kinase II) from the cytosol of Chinese hamster ovary cells by DEAE-cellulose chromatography and studied their properties. Protein kinase I is eluted at a lower salt concentration than protein kinase II and is stimulable to 10 times its basal catalytic activity, while protein kinase II is stimulable only 2-fold. Both kinases are completely dissociated by cyclic AMP and inhibited by specific cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitor. They have similar Km values for magnesium (approximately 1 mM), cyclic AMP (approximately 60 nM), and ATP (approximately 0.1 mM), and the dissociation constant (Kdis) for cyclic AMP (approximately 13 nM) is the same for both enzymes. However, they appear to have different substrate preferences and cyclic AMP-binding properties in that cyclic AMP bound to protein kinase II exchanges readily with free cyclic AMP, while that bound to protein kinase I is not exchangeable. The native enzymes have different sedimentation coefficients (6.4 S for protein kinase I and 4.8 S for protein kinase II), whereas those of the activated enzymes are the same (2.9--3.0 S). It appears that the two cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinases which differ from each other in their regulatory subunits may play different roles in the mediation of cyclic AMP action in Chinese hamster ovary cells.

Cytosol of mature estrous rabbit follicles contains a single species of protein kinase, protein kinase 3, which can be classified as a type II cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Cytosol of functional rabbit corpora lutea (CL) contains, in addition to protein kinase 3, a second species of kinase activity, protein kinase 2, which can be classified as a type I cAMP-dependent protein kinase. These conclusions are based upon the relative dissociation and reassociation characteristics of the two holoenzymes in the presence and absence of 0.5 M NaCl after in vitro dissociation by cAMP, upon the effect of MgATP on salt- and basic protein-induced dissociation, and upon their relative elution from DEAE-cellulose. Protein kinase 3 in mature estrous rabbit follicles was rapidly activated after an iv injection of hCG. The activation was demonstrated by an increase of the protein kinase activity ratio as well as by the appearance of the free catalytic subunit of protein kinase upon Sephadex gel filtration. Maximal activation occurred within 10 min of in vivo hormone administration and required ovulatory doses of hormones with LH-like activity. Neither PRL, ACTH, epinephrine, nor a highly purified preparation of FSH promoted activation of the follicular protein kinase 3. Demonstration of protein kinase activation in follicles was achieved in the presence of 0.5 M NaCl in the homogenization media. After an iv injection of hCG, a partial activation of luteal protein kinases 2 and 3 was demonstrated, as reflected by the increase of the protein kinase activity ratio. These results implicate an important role for cAMP-dependent protein kinase 3 in LH action in rabbit ovarian follicles and for cAMP-dependent protein kinases 2 and 3 in LH action in rabbit CL.

Cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinases (EC 2.7.1.37; ATP:protein phosphotransferase) in the human diploid fibroblast WI-38 and an SV40-transformant WI-38-VA13-2RA (VA13) have been compared on the basis of their concentrations in cells, isoenzyme composition and susceptibility to hormonal activation. In high population density cultures, total soluble cyclic AMP-dependent kinase activities measured with histone were essentially the same in WI-38 and VA13. Two soluble protein kinase forms separated by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose were present in both cell lines. The concentration of cyclic AMP required for half-maximal activation of both enzyme forms was 10-30 nM. Overall kinase stimulation was greater for the Peak I enzymes. Kinase activation induced in the presence of 0.5 M KCl was more rapid and complete for the Peak I enzymes. Under conditions which elevated the concentration of cyclic AMP in WI-38 and VA13 cells the activities of the soluble histone kinases were increased. Incubation of the cells with either of 5.7 micronM prostaglandin E1 or 1 micronM isopropylnorepinephrine induced complete activation of the cyclic AMP-dependent histone kinases within 5 min and maintained the effect for 20 min. When intracellular cyclic AMP levels were raised by prostaglandin E1, activation of glycogen phosphorylase (assayed-AMP) suggested that this enzyme cascade involving cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase(s) was intact and responsive in both cell lines.

Protein kinase (ATP:protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37) and cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate binding activities have been identified in zoospore extracts of the water mold Blastocladiella emersonii. More than 75% of these activities is found in the soluble fraction. Soluble protein kinase activity is resolved in three peaks(I, II and III) by DEAE-cellulose chromatography. Peak I is casein dependent and insensitive to cyclic AMP. Peak II is histone dependent and cyclic AMP independent; this enzyme is inhibited by the heat-stable inhibitor from bovine muscle. Peak III utilizes histone as substrate and is activated by cyclic AMP.

DEAE-cellulose chromatography of the 105,000 X g supernatant fraction (cytosol) obtained from popped estrous rabbit follicles revealed the presence of a single form of cAMP-dependent protein kinase, designated protein kinase 3. The iv injection of an ovulatory dose of hCG to estrous rabbits promoted the appearance of a second, transient peak of cytosol cAMP-dependent protein kinase, protein kinase 1. Protein kinase 1 was detected within 10 min of hCG administration but had regressed to undetectable levels by 24 h in corpora lutea (CL) of pseudopregnancy and by 72 h in CL of pregnancy. Ovulation and subsequent CL formation were accompanied by the appearance of a third form of cAMP-dependent protein kinase, designated protein kinase 2. Protein kinase 2 was present within 2 h after hCG administration and persisted as a major form of cytosol cAMP-dependent protein kinase throughout the life span of CL. All three forms of protein kinase were inhibited by the heat-stable protein kinase inhibitor from rabbit skeletal muscle, possessed cAMP-binding activity, and were markedly stimulated by 10(-7) M cAMP. The activity of protein kinase 3 in CL of pregnancy, in corpora albicantia, and in interstitial tissue was markedly greater than that in follicles or in CL of pseudopregnancy, while the activity of protein kinase 2 remained relatively constant throughout the luteal life span. The iv injection of a luteolytic dose of hCG to 4-day pseudopregnant rabbits promoted no alterations of the protein kinase elution profile upon DEAE-cellulose chromatography of the luteal cytosol obtained 10 min to 3 days post-hCG injection. However, with dedifferentiation of corpora albicantia into interstitial tissue, the cAMP dependency of protein kinase 2 was reduced. The results indicate that the enzymatic activity and multiplicity of cAMP-dependent protein kinases in the cytosol of ovarian structures are subject to regulation by LH (hCG) and depend upon the various reproductive stages of the rabbit.

Pure cGMP-inhibited cAMP phosphodiesterase (cGI-PDE) in micrograms quantities was isolated from bovine aortic smooth muscle after more than 5000-fold purification using DEAE ion-exchange and affinity chromatography with a derivative of the specific cGI-PDE inhibitor cilostamide conjugated as a ligand to aminoethyl agarose (CIT-agarose). The cGI-PDE, which constituted about half of the high affinity cAMP-PDE activity of a tissue homogenate, was identified with a 105-kDa protein on SDS-PAGE through use of antibodies towards the human platelet, bovine cardiac and bovine adipose tissue cGI-PDE in Western blot and immunoprecipitation/immunoinactivation analysis. As observed during purification of the enzyme from other tissues the enzyme protein was exquisitely sensitive to proteolytic nicking during purification, resulting in several 30-77-kDa polypeptide fragments. Rapid immunoprecipitation from fresh tissue extracts was the only was found to partially prevent the proteolysis. The native enzyme had apparent molecular sizes of approx. 100,000 or, mainly approx. 220,000 by gel chromatography, presumably indicating the presence of monomeric and dimeric forms. The enzyme hydrolyzed cAMP and cGMP with normal Michaelis-Menten kinetics with Km of 0.16 and 0.09 microM, respectively, with Vmax for hydrolysis of cAMP of 0.3 compared to 3.1 mumol/min per mg protein for cAMP. The enzyme was potently and selectively inhibited by cGMP (IC50 approximately 0.25 microM) and the cardiotonic/vasodilatory drugs OPC-3911 (a cilostamide derivative), milrinone and CI-930 (IC50 approximately 0.05, 0.40 and 0.25 microM, respectively). The cGI-PDE was phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase as has been reported for the analogous enzymes in heart, adipose tissue and platelets. The identification of a cGI-PDE in the aortic smooth muscle and its inhibitor specificity is consistent with the hypothesis that inhibition of this enzyme is important in the mechanism through which these drugs produce vasorelaxation.
