The type I and type II regulatory subunits of cAMP-dependent protein kinase can be distinguished by autophosphorylation. The type II regulatory subunits have an autophosphorylation site at a proteolytically sensitive hinge region, while the type I regulatory subunits have a pseudophosphorylation site. Only holoenzyme formed with type I regulatory subunits has a high affinity binding site for MgATP. In order to determine the functional consequences of regulatory subunit phosphorylation on interaction with the catalytic subunit, an autophosphorylation site was introduced into the type I regulatory subunit using recombinant DNA techniques. When Ala97 at the hinge region of the type I regulatory subunit was replaced with Ser, the regulatory subunit became a good substrate for the catalytic subunit. Stoichiometric phosphorylation occurred exclusively at Ser97. Radioactivity was incorporated primarily into the recombinant regulatory subunit when catalytic subunit and [gamma-32P]ATP were added to the total bacterial extract. Phosphorylation of the mutant regulatory subunit also occurred readily following polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and electrophoretic transfer to nitrocellulose. Phosphorylation occurred as an intramolecular event in the absence of cAMP indicating that the hinge region of the regulatory subunit occupies the substrate recognition site of the catalytic subunit in the holoenzyme complex. Holoenzyme formed with both the wild type and mutant regulatory subunits was susceptible to dissociation in the presence of high salt; however, only the native holoenzyme was stabilized by MgATP. In contrast to the wild type holoenzyme, the affinity of the mutant holoenzyme for cAMP was not reduced in the presence of MgATP. Holoenzyme formation also was not facilitated by MgATP.

A cAMP-binding protein is found to be integrated into the inner mitochondrial membrane of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae under normal conditions. It resists solubilization by high salt and chaotropic agents. The protein is, however, converted to a soluble form which then resides in the intermembrane space, when isolated mitochondria are incubated with low concentrations of calcium. Phospholipids or diacylglycerol (or analogues) dramatically increases the efficiency of receptor release from the inner membrane, whereas these compounds alone are ineffective. Also, cAMP does not effect or enhance liberation from the membrane of the cAMP-binding protein. Photoaffinity labeling with 8-N3-[32P]cAMP followed by mitochondrial subfractionation and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis does not reveal differences in the apparent molecular weight between the membrane-bound and the soluble form of the cAMP receptor. The two forms differ, however, in their partitioning behavior in Triton X-114 as well as in their protease resistance, indicating that the release from the membrane is accompanied by a change in lipophilicity and conformation of the receptor protein. Evidence is presented that a change of the intramitochondrial location of the yeast cAMP-binding protein also occurs in vivo and leads to the activation of a mitochondrial cAMP-dependent protein kinase. The cAMP-binding protein is the first example of a mitochondrial protein with amphitropic character; i.e., it has the property to occur in two different locations, as a membrane-embedded and a soluble form.

A method for the cryogenic storage of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase from bovine cardiac muscle is described. The catalytic parameters, kcat, KM, and kcat/KM are used to assess the activity of the enzyme both prior and subsequent to the freeze-thaw cycle. The enzyme is stored in cryogenic vials at -196 degrees C in liquid nitrogen. Complete retention of catalytic activity is dependent upon a rapid and efficient freeze-thaw cycle and the use of morpholinepropanesulfonic acid as the buffer. In addition, this buffer appears to eliminate the KCl- or NaCl-induced damage typically observed for enzymes stored at low temperature in phosphate buffer. As a result, morpholinepropanesulfonic acid may prove to be a more appropriate cryopreservation buffer than phosphate when the presence of salt is required for enzyme solubility or stability.

The 25 kDa mRNA cap binding protein can be purified in a partially phosphorylated state and the extent of its phosphorylation appears to be regulated during heat shock and mitosis in mammalian cells. We demonstrated that a nonabundant serine protein kinase activity exists in rabbit reticulocytes that phosphorylates the 25 kDa cap binding protein in both the free (eIF-4E) and complexed (eIF-4F) state. This kinase was not inhibited by the cAMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitory peptide IAAGRTGRRNAIHDILVAA, did not phosphorylate S6 ribosomal protein, did not phosphorylate p220 of eIF-4F as protein kinase C does and no other substrates for this kinase were apparent in reticulocyte ribosomal salt wash. The molecular identity of this kinase, the specific site(s) of eIF-4E that it phosphorylates and its in vivo regulatory role remain to be studied.

The types and subunit composition of cAMP-dependent protein kinases in soluble rat ovarian extracts were investigated. Results demonstrated that three peaks of cAMP-dependent kinase activity could be resolved using DEAE-cellulose chromatography. Based on the sedimentation of cAMP-dependent protein kinase and regulatory subunits using sucrose density gradient centrifugation, identification of 8-N3[32P]cAMP labeled RI and RII in DEAE-cellulose column and sucrose gradient fractions by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and Scatchard analysis of the cAMP-stimulated activation of the eluted peaks of kinase activity, the following conclusions were drawn regarding the composition of the three peaks of cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity: peak 1, eluting with less than or equal to 0.05 M potassium phosphate, consisted of the type I form of cAMP-dependent protein kinase; peak 2, eluting with 0.065-0.11 M potassium phosphate, consisted of free RI and a type II tetrameric holoenzyme; peak 3, eluting with 0.125 M potassium phosphate, consisted of an apparent RIIC trimer, followed by the elution with 0.15 M potassium phosphate of free RII. The regulatory subunits were confirmed as authentic RI and RII based upon their molecular weights and autophosphorylation characteristics. The more basic elution of the type II holoenzyme with free RI was not attributable to the ionic properties of the regulatory subunits, based upon the isoelectric points of photolabeled RI and RII and upon the elution location from DEAE-cellulose of RI and RII on dissociation from their respective holoenzymes by cAMP. This is the first report of a type II holoenzyme eluting in low salt fractions with free RI, and of the presence of an apparent RIIC trimer in a soluble tissue extract.

In this manuscript we describe in detail the purification and biochemical and immunological characterization of cAMP-dependent protein kinases in bovine adrenal cortex, rat adrenal gland, and isolated fasciculata cells of the rat. DEAE-cellulose chromatography of bovine adrenal cortex extract yielded two major (type I and type II) cAMP-dependent protein kinase peaks and one minor cAMP-binding peak. The minor peak (peak A) eluted at 30-80 mM NaCl and corresponded to the typical type I tetrameric structure of the holoenzyme. Peak B, eluting at 80-130 mM NaCl, comprised 10-15% of the total cAMP-binding activity and was identified as dimeric type I cAMP-binding regulatory subunit of the enzyme. Peak C (major peak) eluting at high salt (130-220 mM NaCl), was different from the typical type II holoenzyme; its mol wt was relatively low (123,000), and its cAMP-binding subunit was type I rather than type II. The native enzyme contained dimeric cAMP-binding regulatory subunit and suggested the presence of only a single catalytic subunit. Based on these results and on the reduced activation of its kinase activity by cAMP, we suggest a type I trimeric structure, R I2 C, of this enzyme. Most of the bovine adrenocortical extracts (62 of 68) did not contain type II cAMP-binding regulatory subunit of the enzyme. When present, its concentration (free or part of the holoenzyme) was less than 15% of the total cAMP-dependent protein kinases. These results were further supported by the studies with rat adrenal glands and isolated fasciculata cells derived from these glands, where only the type I cAMP receptor was found. We, therefore, conclude that in contrast to the current notion, adrenal cortex contains little, if any, enzyme containing type II cAMP-binding receptor. The predominant form of the holoenzyme contains a typical type I cAMP-binding receptor, but possesses an anomalous type II-like high salt elution pattern. We suggest that the trimeric structure of this enzyme contains a typical dimeric type I cAMP-binding subunit and a single catalytic subunit, R I2 C.

Membrane proteins of Mr 240,000, 130,000, and 85,000 (GS-proteins) were rapidly and selectively phosphorylated in particulate fractions of rabbit aortic smooth muscle in the presence of [Mg-32P]ATP and low concentrations of cGMP (Ka = 0.01 microM) or cAMP (Ka = 0.2 microM). The effects of both cyclic nucleotides in this preparation were mediated entirely by an endogenous, membrane-bound form of cGMP-dependent protein kinase (G-kinase). The GS-proteins were also phosphorylated by the soluble form of G-kinase purified from bovine lung; this effect was most evident following removal of endogenous G-kinase from the membranes using Na2CO3 and high salt washes. The membrane-bound and cytosolic forms of G-kinase phosphorylated the Mr 130,000 GS-protein with the same specificity as determined by two-dimensional peptide mapping. Despite this functional homology between the two forms of G-kinase, only the particulate enzyme appears to play a role in phosphorylating the GS-proteins. Although little endogenous cAMP-dependent protein kinase (A-kinase) activity was detected in washed aortic smooth muscle membranes, the GS-proteins could be phosphorylated when purified A-kinase catalytic subunit was added to this preparation. Peptide mapping of the Mr 130,000 GS-protein indicated that A-kinase phosphorylated a subset of the same peptides labeled by the two forms of G-kinase. The endogenous A-kinase of rabbit aortic smooth muscle homogenates was also found to phosphorylate the GS-proteins. Since the intracellular concentrations of cGMP or cAMP can be selectively elevated by different stimuli, these results suggest several possible mechanisms by which the phosphorylation state of the GS-proteins may be regulated by cyclic nucleotides: activation of the membrane-bound G-kinase by cGMP or cAMP; and activation of cytosolic A-kinase by cAMP.

Two major substrates for human erythrocyte protein kinase C (PK-C) of Mr 120,000 and 110,000, previously named PKC-1 and PKC-2 [Palfrey, H. C. & Waseem, A. (1985) J. Biol. Chem. 260, 16021-16029] have been found to be identical to CaM-BP 103/97 or 'adducin', recently described by K. Gardner and V. Bennett [(1986) J. Biol. Chem. 261, 1339-1348; (1987) Nature (Lond.) 328, 359-362]. These proteins have been purified from the membrane skeleton by high-salt extraction, ion-exchange and gel filtration chromatography. The two proteins co-fractionate in a ratio of approximately 1:1 under a number of conditions suggesting that they exist as a complex. Physicochemical data indicate that the native adducin complex is probably an asymmetric heterodimer of alpha and beta subunits. Adducin binds to a calmodulin (CaM) affinity matrix in a Ca2+-dependent manner and is specifically eluted with EGTA. Fingerprinting of the iodinated peptides derived from the alpha and beta subunits using three different proteases yields 16-37% overlapping peptides, indicating limited similarity between the two polypeptides. Affinity-purified polyclonal antibodies against each protein show little or no cross-reactivity with the other, indicating that the beta subunit is not derived from the alpha subunit or vice versa. Proteins reactive with both anti-(alpha-adducin) and anti-(beta-adducin) antibodies are found in erythrocytes from rat, rabbit, pig, ferret and duck. Immunoblots of adducin after non-ionic detergent extraction of ghosts reveal that a significant fraction of the protein may associate with non-skeleton membrane components. The phosphorylation of adducin is stimulated by both phorbol esters and cAMP analogues in intact erythrocytes. Fingerprinting suggests that protein kinase C preferentially phosphorylates four distinct sites on the two proteins. Phosphopeptide maps of alpha-adducin are virtually identical to those of beta-adducin after phorbol ester stimulation of intact cells, or after PK-C-catalyzed phosphorylation of the purified protein, indicating strong local similarities in the two proteins. Such maps also suggest that cAMP-dependent protein kinase (cAMP-PK) modifies adducin at some similar and some distinct sites as those modified by PK-C. In vitro phosphorylation of isolated adducin by purified PK-C results in rapid incorporation of phosphate to a final level of approximately 1.5 mol/mol in both alpha and beta subunits.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Electrophoretically homogeneous preparations of catalytic subunit (C) of cAMP-dependent protein kinase isolated according to two different procedures from holoenzyme type I and type II from rabbit and from holoenzyme type II from rat skeletal muscle and from bovine cardiac muscle can be separated on carboxymethyl cellulose or on a Mono S column (Pharmacia) by salt gradient elution into two enzymatically active peaks called A and B, which do not interconvert on rechromatography. Cochromatography of peak A fractions or of peak B fractions derived from both holoenzymes respectively yields single enzyme peaks in each case, thus indicating that both represent different entities, which were named CA and CB. The separate character of both enzyme forms is supported by the fact that CB under all conditions is degraded faster by the C-specific protease (E. Alhanaty et al. (1981) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 78, 3492-3495) than CA, a phenomenon which is enhanced in both enzyme forms by substrate (Kemptide). The separation of both subtypes from each other is probably based on differences in isoelectric values (delta pH less than or equal to 0.5 units). The reason for the charge difference is not presently known. CA and CB do not differ significantly in their phosphate content. No differences between CA and CB have been detectable so far with respect to their migration in SDS gels, kinetic behavior regarding both substrates and cosubstrate, pH dependence, inhibition by regulatory subunits of holoenzyme type I (rabbit skeletal muscle) and of type II (bovine cardiac muscle), and inhibition by specific-heat and acid-stable inhibitor-modulator. The peptide pattern of both forms after limited proteolysis exhibits small differences.

Thyroid protein kinase C (PKc) from cytosols of porcine and rat thyroid glands has been characterized using histone H1 or endogenous proteins as substrates. As in many other tissues histone H1 is by far the preferred exogenous substrate of thyroid PKc. Kinetic studies with H1 showed that, compared to rat thyroids, porcine glands are particularly rich in PKc, the predominant kinase activity in this tissue. The cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKa) level, on the contrary, is very similar in both rat and porcine thyroids. Consequently, for the same type of tissue, there may be great species differences in the PKc level and the ratios between PKc and PKa kinase activities. Chromatographic properties of thyroid PKc are similar to those described in other tissues (one major peak followed by a small shoulder) except that elution of the main peak can vary depending on the nature of the salt gradient (approximately 55 mM for NaCl and 15 mM for sodium phosphate). In the first case PKc is completely separated from the PKa activity, in the second it is coeluted with the peak of PKa type I. The one-dimensional PAGE pattern of proteins phosphorylated by porcine PKc is very similar to the pattern obtained by rat enzyme. Protein bands of 18 kDa, 22-25 kDa and 32-36 kDa are specific substrates of the thyroid PKc, after in vitro phosphorylation of cytosol proteins. A great difference in Ca2+ requirement for PKc activation was noted, depending whether histone H1 or endogenous proteins were substrates. As in other tissues, calcium was absolutely necessary for phosphorylation of histone H1 by PKc. The addition of calcium was not absolutely necessary when endogenous proteins were the substrates, either for the activation of the enzyme or for phosphorylation of the PKc-specific substrates. Almost the same rate of phosphorylation was obtained with or without calcium in the incubation medium. However the one-dimensional PAGE pattern of phosphorylated proteins was different in the presence or absence of calcium. While addition of calcium was not absolutely necessary for the phosphorylation of a great number of proteins by the PKc, its presence was indispensable for the phosphorylation of certain endogenous substrates. However, calcium alone, in the absence of phospholipids had no effect on the phosphorylation of these proteins. Endogenous proteins, phosphorylated by the PKc only when calcium was present, were resolved by the two-dimensional PAGE into several distinct spots with molecular masses of 32-35 kDa and pI range of 5-7.5.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)
