The atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) stimulates cGMP production and protein phosphorylation in a particulate fraction of cultured rat aortic smooth muscle cells. Three proteins of 225, 132, and 11 kDa were specifically phosphorylated in response to ANP treatment, addition of cGMP (5 nM), or addition of purified cGMP-dependent protein kinase. The cAMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitor had no effect on the cGMP-stimulated phosphorylation of the three proteins but inhibited cAMP-dependent phosphorylation of a 17-kDa protein. These results demonstrate that the particulate cGMP-dependent protein kinase mediates the phosphorylation of the 225-, 132-, and 11-kDa proteins. The 11-kDa protein is phospholamban based on the characteristic shift in apparent Mr from 11,000 to 27,000 on heating at 37 degrees C rather than boiling prior to electrophoresis. ANP (1 microM) increased the cGMP concentration approximately 4-fold in the particulate fractions, from 4.3 to 17.7 nM, as well as the phosphorylation of the 225-, 132-, and 11-kDa proteins. In contrast, the biologically inactive form of ANP, carboxymethylated ANP (1 microM), did not stimulate phosphorylation of any proteins nor did the unrelated peptide hormone, angiotensin II (1 microM). These results demonstrate the presence of the cGMP-mediated ANP signal transduction pathway in a particulate fraction of smooth muscle cells and the specific phosphorylation of three proteins including phospholamban, which may be involved in ANP-dependent relaxation of smooth muscle.

Phospholamban, the putative regulator for the calcium pump, was purified to apparent homogeneity and in high yields from canine cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes. Purified phospholamban migrated with an apparent Mr of 27,000 in alkaline sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels, and upon boiling in 7.5% sodium dodecyl sulfate, it dissociated into a lower molecular weight component of 5500-6000. Purified phospholamban contained 0.62 +/- 0.09 mumol of lipid Pi/mg of protein, and the major phospholipids were phosphatidylserine (34%), phosphatidylcholine (22%), sphingomyelin (17%), phosphatidylinositol (13%), and phosphatidylethanolamine (9%). Phospholamban was phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase to a level of 207 nmol of Pi/mg, and this would indicate an incorporation of 1 mol of phosphate/mol of protein, assuming a molecular weight of 5500 for phospholamban. Phosphorylation of phospholamban could be reversed by a "phospholamban phosphatase" isolated from canine cardiac cytosol. Phospholipids associated with the purified phospholamban were also phosphorylated in the presence of the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase, and the maximal phosphate incorporation was 4 nmol/mg of protein. The main phospholipids phosphorylated were phosphatidylinositol 4-monophosphate and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate. Phosphorylation of phospholipids was inhibited by the heat-stable inhibitor protein of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase, and it could be also reversed by the phospholamban phosphatase.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

A protein phosphatase which dephosphorylates phospholamban was purified from canine cardiac cytosol. Purification involved sequential chromatography on DEAE-Sephacel, polylysine-agarose, heparin-agarose, Mono Q HR 10/10, and Superose 6. The enzyme was composed of three subunits with Mr = 63,000, 55,000, and 38,000, and it could dephosphorylate the sites on phospholamban phosphorylated by either cAMP-dependent or calcium-calmodulin-dependent protein kinase. Phospholamban phosphatase activity was enhanced 12-, 9-, and 3-fold by the divalent cations Mg2+, Mn2+, and Ca2+, respectively. The phosphatase was inhibited by PPi, ATP, NaF, and Pi and the degree of inhibition was different with each compound. The substrate specificity of the purified phosphatase for cardiac phosphoproteins was determined using troponin I, phospholamban, and highly enriched sarcolemmal and sarcoplasmic reticulum preparations, phosphorylated by the cAMP-dependent protein kinase. The phosphatase exhibited the highest activity with phospholamban as substrate. Thus, dephosphorylation of phospholamban by this phosphatase may participate in regulation of sarcoplasmic reticulum function in cardiac muscle.

Membrane vesicles capable of energized Ca2+ pumping have been reconstituted from cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). Cardiac SR was solubilized with Triton X-100 in a detergent to protein weight ratio of 0.8, and membranous vesicles were reconstituted by removal of detergent with Bio-Beads SM-2 (a neutral porous styrene-divinylbenzene copolymer). The reconstituted vesicles exhibited ATP-dependent oxalate-facilitated Ca2+ accumulation with rates and efficiency comparable to the best reconstituted skeletal muscle preparation (Ca2+-loading rate = 1.65 +/- 0.31 mumol mg-1 min-1, Ca2+-activated ATPase activity = 2.39 +/- 0.25 mumol mg-1 min-1, efficiency (Ca2+/ATP) = 0.69 +/- 0.09). Phospholamban in the reconstituted vesicles was phosphorylated with added catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase to almost the same extent as that in original vesicles. However, phosphorylation of phospholamban had no effect on the Ca2+ accumulation of the reconstituted vesicles. This is to be contrasted with a decrease in the half-maximal concentration of Ca2+ for Ca2+ accumulation (KCa) in the original vesicles from 1.35 +/- 0.08 microM to 0.75 +/- 0.12 microM by cAMP-dependent phosphorylation of phospholamban. On the other hand KCa for the reconstituted vesicles was about 0.5 microM and remained unchanged by phosphorylation, indicating that the Ca2+ pump in the reconstituted vesicles is already fully activated. These results suggest that in normal cardiac SR, phospholamban in the dephosphorylated state acts as a suppressor of the Ca2+ pump and that phosphorylation of phospholamban serves to reverse the suppression.

Monoclonal antibodies have been raised against canine phospholamban purified by sodium dodecyl sulfate - polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). Four of twenty-four antibodies were purified to close to homogeneity from mouse ascites. All four antibodies could react with isolated bovine cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) to result in the stimulation of ATP-dependent Ca2+ pump activity and blocking of phospholamban phosphorylation by cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Relative efficiencies of antibodies in Ca2+ pump stimulation and on phospholamban phosphorylation were not correlated. An immunoabsorbent prepared by conjugating antibody Al to Affi-Gel 10 was used for the purification of phospholamban. Isolated bovine cardiac SR was solubilized in a buffer containing deoxycholate and the soluble fraction was applied to the immunoaffinity column. After washing the column with a series of detergent-containing buffer solutions, the column-bound protein which contained essentially pure phospholamban was eluted by a buffer containing 2.8 M MgCl2. The phospholamban recovery from the immunoaffinity column was close to 100%; the overall yield of purification from SR vesicles was about 70%. SDS-PAGE analysis showed that purified phospholamban consisted of a 25 and 5 kilodalton (kDa) protein species. Upon brief boiling (20 s) of the sample in SDS-PAGE sample buffer, five molecular species ranging from 5 to 25 kDa could be detected by immunotransblotting following SDS-PAGE. This observation supports the notion that phospholamban is composed of five 5-kDa polypeptides. The pure phospholamban could be phosphorylated maximally by cAMP-dependent protein kinase to 1-1.5 mol phosphate/mol phospholamban (25,000 g). This stoichiometry of phosphorylation could be increased to about 5 upon addition of the immunoaffinity column flow through fraction.

We have examined the effects of added cAMP-dependent protein kinase and endogenous calmodulin-dependent kinase on Ca2+ transport in purified internal membranes from human platelets. Both Ca2+ uptake and Ca2+-ATPase activity were maximally stimulated about 2-fold by addition of cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitor reduced both Ca2+ uptake and Ca2+-ATPase activities at concentrations which also inhibited cAMP-dependent protein phosphorylation. In addition, concerted stimulation of Ca2+-ATPase by exogenous calmodulin and added catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase was observed. A 22-kDa protein was phosphorylated by both cAMP-dependent and calmodulin-dependent kinases at the same rate as stimulation of the Ca2+-ATPase. Cyclic AMP-dependent phosphorylation of the 22-kDa polypeptide was inhibited by the protein kinase inhibitor and calmodulin-dependent phosphorylation was inhibited by chlorpromazine and EGTA. These results are consistent with the hypothesis that one mode of control of Ca2+ homeostasis in platelets may be similar to the phospholamban system in cardiac muscle.

The dissociation of the holoenzyme of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase was induced by the adrenaline-stimulated endogenous cAMP synthesis. This dissociation was impaired in a hypoxic muscle. The elevated proteolytic activity in the hypoxic area was found to be associated with the reduction of the 33P incorporation into phospholamban in the presence of 10(-6) M cAMP. No changes were observed when protein kinase was added to the incubation mixture. A correlation between the degree of phospholamban phosphorylation and its susceptibility to proteolysis was demonstrated.

The cardiac sarcolemmal 15-kDa protein, previously shown to be the principal sarcolemmal substrate phosphorylated in intact heart in response to beta-adrenergic stimulation (Presti, C. F., Jones, L. R., and Lindemann J. P. (1985) J. Biol. Chem. 260, 3860-3867), was demonstrated to be the major substrate phosphorylated in purified canine cardiac sarcolemmal vesicles by an intrinsic protein kinase C activity. The intrinsic protein kinase C, detected by its ability to phosphorylate H1 histones, was most concentrated in cardiac sarcolemmal vesicles and absent from sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes. Unmasking techniques localized the intrinsic protein kinase activity and its principal endogenous substrate, the 15-kDa protein, to the cytoplasmic surfaces of sarcolemmal vesicles; phospholamban contaminating the sarcolemmal preparation was not significantly phosphorylated. The intrinsic protein kinase C required micromolar Ca2+ for activity, but not calmodulin. Half-maximal phosphorylation of the 15-kDa protein occurred at 10 microM Ca2+; optimal phosphorylation of the 15-kDa protein by protein kinase C and Ca2+ was additive to that produced by cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Exogenous phospholipids were not required to activate endogenous protein kinase C. However, heat-treated sarcolemmal vesicles, in which intrinsic protein kinase activities were inactivated, were sufficient to maximally activate soluble protein kinase C prepared from rat brain, suggesting that all the necessary phospholipid cofactors were already present in sarcolemmal vesicles. Of the many proteins present in sarcolemmal vesicles, only the 15-kDa protein was phosphorylated significantly in heat-inactivated sarcolemmal vesicles by soluble protein kinase C, confirming that the 15-kDa protein was a preferential substrate for this enzyme. Consistent with a protein kinase C activity in sarcolemmal vesicles, the tumor-promoting phorbol ester 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate stimulated 15-kDa protein phosphorylation severalfold, producing approximately 70% of the maximal phosphorylation even in the absence of significant ionized Ca2+. The results are compatible with an intrinsic protein kinase C activity in sarcolemmal vesicles whose major substrate is the 15-kDa protein.

Purified phospholamban isolated from canine cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles was subjected to proteolysis and peptide mapping to localize the different sites of phosphorylation on the protein and to gain further information on its subunit structure. Five different proteases (trypsin, papain, chymotrypsin, elastase, and Pronase) degraded the oligomeric 27-kDa phosphoprotein into a major 21-22-kDa protease-resistant fragment. No 32P was retained by this protease-resistant fragment, regardless of whether phospholamban had been phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase, Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase, or protein kinase C. Phosphoamino acid analysis and thin-layer electrophoresis of liberated phosphopeptides revealed that 1 threonine and 2 serine residues were phosphorylated in phospholamban and that 1 of these serine residues and the threonine residue were in close proximity. Only serine was phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase, whereas Ca2+-calmodulin-dependent protein kinase phosphorylated exclusively threonine. The results demonstrate that phospholamban has a large protease-resistant domain and a smaller protease-sensitive domain, the latter of which contains all of the sites of phosphorylation. The 21-22-kDa protease-resistant domain, although devoid of incorporated 32P, was completely dissociated into identical lower molecular weight subunits by boiling in sodium dodecyl sulfate, suggesting that this region of the molecule promotes the relatively strong interactions that hold the subunits together. The data presented lend further support for a model of phospholamban structure in which several identical low molecular weight subunits are noncovalently bound to one another, each containing one site of phosphorylation for cAMP-dependent protein kinase and another site of phosphorylation for Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase.

The composition and function of fetal and mature sheep cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes were investigated. Phospholamban, a major phosphoprotein in the mature sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes, was present in early stages of cardiac myogenesis. This fetal form of phospholamban was phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase but not in the presence of Ca2+ and calmodulin. Ca2+ uptake and Ca2+-dependent ATPase activity were low in fetal sarcoplasmic reticulum compared with the adult controls, although the apparent affinities for Ca2+ were similar. Sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles isolated at all developmental stages had very low levels of plasma membrane (as determined by Na+-K+-ATPase and Na+-Ca2+ exchanger activities) and mitochondrial contamination. Sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ uptake and Ca2+-dependent ATPase activities were not affected by micromolar concentrations of vanadate, and the accumulated Ca2+ could not be released by the addition of NaCl. The amount of both the 110- and 55-kDa protein bands, identified with specific antibodies as Ca2+-ATPase and calsequestrin, respectively, was low in early stages of cardiac myogenesis. Age-related differences in the Ca2+ transport properties of cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum and in the amount of the Ca2+-ATPase and calsequestrin may explain alterations in the regulation of intracellular Ca2+ concentrations in the fetal heart. This may contribute to the developmental changes in myocardial function.
