Rat liver glycogen synthase was phosphorylated by purified protein kinase C in a Ca2+- and phospholipid-dependent fashion to 1-1.4 mol PO4/subunit. Analysis of the 32P-labeled tryptic peptides derived from the phosphorylated synthase by isoelectric focusing and two-dimensional peptide mapping revealed the presence of a major radioactive peptide. The sites in liver synthase phosphorylated by protein kinase C appears to be different from those phosphorylated by other kinases. Prior phosphorylation of the synthase by protein kinase C has no significant effect on the subsequent phosphorylation by glycogen synthase (casein) kinase-1 or kinase Fa, but prevents the synthase from further phosphorylation by cAMP-dependent protein kinase, Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase, phosphorylase kinase, or casein kinase-2. Additive phosphorylation of liver glycogen synthase can be observed by the combination of protein kinase C with the former set of kinases but not with the latter. Phosphorylation of liver synthase by protein kinase C alone did not cause an inactivation nor did the combination of this kinase with glycogen synthase (casein) kinase-1 or kinase Fa produce a synergistic effect on the inactivation of the synthase. Based on these findings we conclude that the phorbol ester-induced inactivation of glycogen synthase previously observed in hepatocytes cannot be accounted for entirely by the activation of protein kinase C.

This study addresses the function of multisite phosphorylation of phosphorylase kinase catalyzed by the cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Using subunit specific protein phosphatases (the polycation-stimulated and ATP-, Mg2+-dependent enzymes), we show that the degree of phosphorylation of both the alpha and beta subunits modulates phosphorylase kinase activity. beta subunit phosphorylation is essential for activation and, independent of the degree of alpha subunit phosphorylation, enzyme fully dephosphorylated in the beta subunit is completely inactivated. alpha Subunit phosphorylation does, however, also regulate activity, and enzyme fully or partially phosphorylated in the beta subunit is inactivated as a consequence of alpha subunit dephosphorylation. The extent of inactivation caused by alpha subunit dephosphorylation is linearly dependent on the phosphorylation state of the beta subunit. Three peptide sites on the alpha subunit are phosphorylated by the cAMP-dependent protein kinase; the site primarily affecting activity is the one that is initially phosphorylated. These data provide evidence that subunit interrelationships play an important role in the regulation of phosphorylase kinase by multisite phosphorylation.

The autophosphorylation of the alpha subunit of phosphorylase kinase occurs simultaneously at multiple sites during incorporation of the first mol of phosphate. The predominant and initial autophosphorylation site on this subunit is different than the major site phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase, which also phosphorylates multiple sites, as evidenced by two-dimensional phosphopeptide maps. All of the sites on the alpha subunit phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase comigrate on peptide maps with autophosphorylation phosphopeptides; however, several phosphopeptides observed after autophosphorylation are not evident following phosphorylation by cAMP-dependent protein kinase. The phosphopeptide maps of the alpha subunit are the same whether autophosphorylation is carried out at pH 6.8 or 8.2 or whether MnATP is used instead of MgATP; there is only a slight difference in the maps brought about by EGTA-insensitive autophosphorylation. The autophosphorylation is shown to be an intrinsic activity of the phosphorylase kinase molecule; this conclusion is based on the observed copurification of the autophosphorylation activity with activities toward phosphorylase b and kappa-casein and the unaltered influence of various effectors on these activities throughout different sequential adsorption chromatography purification steps. Additional support to that already in the literature that the initial autophosphorylation events are predominantly intramolecular is gained by showing that previously autophosphorylated enzyme has little ability to catalyze the phosphorylation of nonphosphorylated enzyme.

Phosphorylase kinase has been purified from white and red chicken skeletal muscle to near homogeneity, as judged by sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) gel electrophoresis. The molecular mass of the native enzyme, estimated by chromatography on Sepharose 4B, is similar to that of rabbit skeletal muscle phosphorylase kinase, i.e. 1320 kDa. The purified enzyme both from white and red muscles showed four subunits upon polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of SDS, corresponding to alpha', beta, gamma' and delta with molecular masses of 140 kDa, 129 kDa, 44 kDa and 17 kDa respectively. Based on the molecular mass of 1320 kDa for the native enzyme and on the molar ratio of subunits as estimated from densitometric tracings of the polyacrylamide gels, a subunit formula (alpha' beta gamma' delta)4 has been proposed. The antiserum against the mixture of the alpha' and beta subunits of chicken phosphorylase kinase gave a single precipitin line with the chicken enzyme but did not cross-react with the rabbit skeletal muscle phosphorylase kinase. The pH 6.8/8.2 activity ratio of phosphorylase kinase from chicken skeletal muscle varied from 0.3 to 0.5 for different preparations of the enzyme. Chicken phosphorylase kinase could utilize rabbit phosphorylase b as a substrate with an apparent Km value of 0.02 mM at pH 8.2. The apparent V (18 mumol min-1 mg-1) and Km values for ATP at pH 8.2 (0.20 mM) were of the same order of magnitude as that of the purified rabbit phosphorylase kinase b. The activity of chicken phosphorylase kinase was largely dependent on Ca2+. The chicken enzyme was activated 2-4-fold by calmodulin and troponin C, with concentrations for half-maximal activation of 2 nM and 0.1 microM respectively. Phosphorylation with the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (up to 2 mol 32P/mol alpha beta gamma delta monomer) and autophosphorylation (up to 8 mol 32P/mol alpha beta gamma delta monomer) increased the activity 1.5-fold and 2-fold respectively. Limited tryptic and chymotryptic hydrolysis of chicken phosphorylase kinase stimulated its activity 2-fold. Electrophoretic analysis of the products of proteolytic attack suggests some differences in the structure of the rabbit and chicken gamma subunits and some similarities in the structure of the rabbit red muscle and chicken alpha'.

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.

Tyrosine-specific protein kinase activity of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor, pp60v-src and pp110gag-fes was inhibited in vitro by an isoflavone genistein. The inhibition was competitive with respect to ATP and noncompetitive to a phosphate acceptor, histone H2B. By contrast, genistein scarcely inhibited the enzyme activities of serine- and threonine-specific protein kinases such as cAMP-dependent protein kinase, phosphorylase kinase, and the Ca2+/phospholipid-dependent enzyme protein kinase C. When the effect of genistein on the phosphorylation of the EGF receptor was examined in cultured A431 cells, EGF-stimulated serine, threonine, and tyrosine phosphorylation was decreased. Phosphoamino acid analysis of total cell proteins revealed that genistein inhibited the EGF-stimulated increase in phosphotyrosine level in A431 cells.

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.

Phosphorylase kinase catalyzed the calcium-dependent phosphorylation of bovine cardiac C-protein. Phosphorylation of C-protein by phosphorylase kinase reached nearly 2 mol [32P]/mol C-protein. Tryptic phosphopeptide mapping and phosphoamino acid analysis indicated that phosphorylase kinase maybe phosphorylating some of the same seryl residues that undergo phosphorylation by cAMP-dependent protein kinase and that C-protein from bovine and chicken heart are structurally different. Bovine cardiac C-protein was not a substrate for a number of calcium and cyclic nucleotide-independent protein kinases, suggesting that phosphorylation of cardiac C-protein is restricted to protein kinases which are modulated by calcium and cAMP.

The activation of phosphorylase kinase (EC 2.7.1.38; ATP:phosphorylase b phosphotransferase) by the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (EC 2.7.1.37; ATP:protein phosphotransferase) is inhibited by calmodulin. The mechanism of that inhibition has been studied by kinetic measurements of the interactions of the three proteins. The binding constant for calmodulin with phosphorylase kinase was found to be 90 nM when measured by fluorescence polarization spectroscopy. Glycerol gradient centrifugation studies indicated that 1 mol of calmodulin was bound to each phosphorylase kinase. Phosphorylation of the phosphorylase kinase did not reduce the amount of calmodulin bound. Kinetic studies of the activity of the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase on phosphorylase kinase as a function of phosphorylase kinase and calmodulin concentrations were performed. The results of those studies were compared with mathematical models of four different modes of inhibition: competitive, noncompetitive, substrate depletion, and inhibition by a complex between phosphorylase kinase and calmodulin. The data conform best to the model in which the inhibitory species is a complex of phosphorylase kinase and calmodulin. The complex apparently competes with the substrate, phosphorylase kinase, which does not have exogenous calmodulin bound to it. In contrast, the phosphorylation of the synthetic phosphate acceptor peptide, Kemptide, is not inhibited by calmodulin.

cAMP-dependent protein kinase, protein kinase C, cGMP-dependent protein kinase, smooth muscle myosin light-chain kinase, and phosphorylase kinase were examined with respect to their ability to phosphorylate porcine atrial muscarinic receptors (mAcChRs). Experiments were performed both in detergent solution and in a reconstituted system containing the mAcChR alone or in the presence of the purified porcine atrial inhibitor guanine nucleotide binding protein (Gi). Only cAMP-dependent protein kinase was capable of phosphorylating the receptor under any of the experimental conditions examined. Phosphorylation of the mAcChR in the detergent-solubilized state resulted in a loss of ligand binding sites that was reversible upon treatment with calcineurin in the presence of calcium and calmodulin. Upon reconstitution, the apparent stoichiometry of phosphorylation was increased by about 15-fold. Carbachol-stimulated covalent incorporation of phosphate was found only in the reconstituted system in the presence of Gi, suggesting that the large agonist-stimulated increase in phosphorylation observed in vivo [Kwatra, M. M., & Hosey, M. M. (1986) J. Biol. Chem. 261, 12429-12432] may in part result from a unique receptor conformation that occurs upon association with this protein. Ligand binding studies indicated that phosphorylation of the mAcChR in the detergent-solubilized or reconstituted state did not affect its interaction with carbachol or L-quinuclidinyl benzilate in vitro. Carbachol-induced stimulation of the GTPase activity of Gi in the reconstituted system was also unaffected by phosphorylation.
