Incorporation of phosphorus from [gamma-32P]ATP into protein was catalyzed by specific immunoprecipitates from avian sarcoma virus (ASV)-transformed avian and mammalian cells. This incorporation was observed only when antiserum from tumor-bearing rabbits able to specifically precipitate the ASV sarcoma gene product, p60src, was used to immunoprecipitate antigens from transformed cell lysates. Immunoprecipitates of extracts from normal cells or cells infected with a transformation-defective ASV mutant showed no activity in this assay, nor did any immune complexes formed with normal rabbit serum and any of the cell extracts tested. The expression of the protein kinase activity (ATP:protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37) was growth temperature-dependent in cells infected with an ASV mutant temperature-sensitive for the transformation. These results on an enzymatic activity associated with the ASV transforming protein are discussed in terms of protein phosphorylation as a mechanism for viral transformation.

Phosphorylation of rat and rabbit troponin from normal skeletal muscles and from skeletal muscles of animals under avitaminosis, denervation and hypokinesia was studied. Phosphorylation was carried out by cAMP-dependent protein kinase with [gamma-33P] as substrate. The incorporation of labelled phosphorus into troponin T of the damaged muscles was decreased as compared to normal. After preliminary dephosphorylation of troponin by alkaline phosphatase immobilized on Sepharose 4B, the ability of damaged muscle troponin for subsequent phosphorylation was also decreased as compared to the control. It may be thus assumed that there exist conformational changes of troponin under muscular system pathologies.

In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, lack of nutrients triggers a pleiotropic response characterized by accumulation of storage carbohydrates, early G1 arrest, and sporulation of a/alpha diploids. This response is thought to be mediated by RAS proteins, adenylate cyclase, and cyclic AMP (cAMP)-dependent protein kinases. This study shows that expression of the S. cerevisiae gene coding for a cytoplasmic catalase T (CTT1) is controlled by this pathway: it is regulated by the availability of nutrients. Lack of a nitrogen, sulfur, or phosphorus source causes a high-level expression of the gene. Studies with strains with mutations in the RAS-cAMP pathway and supplementation of a rca1 mutant with cAMP show that CTT1 expression is under negative control by a cAMP-dependent protein kinase and that nutrient control of CTT1 gene expression is mediated by this pathway. Strains containing a CTT1-Escherichia coli lacZ fusion gene have been used to isolate mutants with mutations in the pathway. Mutants characterized in this investigation fall into five complementation groups. Both cdc25 and ras2 alleles were identified among these mutants.

The specific activity of the gamma-32P position of ATP was measured in various tissue preparations by two methods. One employed HPLC and the enzymatic conversion of ATP to glucose 6-phosphate and ADP. The other was based on the phosphorylation of histone by catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (Hawkins, P.T., Michell, R.H. and Kirk, C.J. (1983) Biochem. J. 210, 717-720). The HPLC method also allowed the incorporation of 32P into the (alpha + beta)-positions of ATP to be determined. In rat epididymal fat-pad pieces and fat-cell preparations the specific activity of [gamma-32P]ATP attained a steady-state value after 1-2 h incubation in medium containing 0.2 mM [32P]phosphate. Addition of insulin or the beta-agonist isoprenaline increased this value by 5-10% within 15 min. Under these conditions the steady-state specific activity of [gamma-32P]ATP was 30-40% of the initial specific activity of the medium [32P]phosphate. However, if allowance was made for the change in medium phosphate specific activity during incubations the equilibration of the gamma-phosphate position of ATP with medium phosphate was greater than 80% in both preparations. The change in medium phosphate specific activity was a combination of the expected equilibration of [32P]phosphate with exchangeable intracellular phosphate pools plus the net release of substantial amounts of tissue phosphate. At external phosphate concentrations of less than 0.6 mM the loss of tissue phosphate to the medium was the major factor in the change in medium phosphate specific activity. It is concluded that little advantage is gained in employing external phosphate concentrations of less than 0.6 mM in experiments concerned with the incorporation of phosphate into proteins and other intracellular constituents. Indeed, a low external phosphate concentration may cause depletion of important intracellular phosphorus-containing components.

A series cAMP derivatives with modifications in the adenine, ribose and cyclophosphate moiety were screened for their binding affinity for the two types of cAMP-binding sites in mammalian protein kinase type 1. In addition, the activation of the kinase by these analogs was monitored. The binding data indicate that cAMP is bound to both sites in a comparable manner: the adenine appears to have no hydrogen-bond interactions with the binding sites, whereas the ribose may be bound by three hydrogen bonds involving the 2', 3' and 5' positions of cAMP. The binding data are not conclusive about the nature of the interaction with the exocyclic oxygen atoms on phosphorus, though a charge interaction seems to be absent. The cAMP molecule seems to be bound in the syn conformation. The results of activation experiments show that modifications in the adenine and ribose moiety do not affect the maximal activation level, while alteration of the two exocyclic oxygen atoms may result in a reduced maximal activation level and in one case, (Rp)-adenosine 3', 5'-monophosphorothioate [Rp-cAMPS], in total absence of activation even at concentrations at which the analog saturates both binding sites. Since occupancy of the cAMP-binding sites by this derivative apparently did not lead to activation of the enzyme, we examined whether this compound could antagonize the activation by cAMP. Indeed (Rp)-cAMPS was found to inhibit cAMP stimulated kinase activity at concentrations compatible to its binding affinity. Also with mammalian protein kinase type II (Rp)-cAMPS showed antagonistic activity, while with a cAMP-dependent protein kinase from Dictyostelium discoideum partial agonistic activity was observed. Previously a mechanism for activation of protein kinase type I was proposed involving a charge interaction between the equatorial exocyclic oxygen atom and the binding site [De Wit et. al. (1982) Eur. J. Biochem 122, 95-99]. This was based on measurements with impure preparations of (Rp)-cAMPS and the Rp and Sp isomers adenosine 3', 5'-monophosphodimethylamidate. cAMPN(CH3)2. The present work using highly purified compounds suggests the absence of a charge interaction, since the uncharged analog (Sp)-cAMPN(CH3)2 activates the kinase effectively. The data seem compatible with an activation model involving the formation of a covalent bond with phosphorus in both cAMP binding sites.

The phosphoryl transferring enzymes pyruvate kinase, cAMP-dependent protein kinase and the pyrophosphoryl transferring enzyme PP-Rib-P synthetase utilize the beta, gamma bidentate metal--ATP chelate (delta-isomer) as substrate, as determined with substitution-insert CrIIIATP or CoIII(NH3)4ATP complexes. In addition, these enzymes bind a second divalent cation, which is an essential activator for pyruvate kinase and PP-Rib-P synthetase and an inhibitor of protein kinase. The enzyme-bound metal has been used as a paramagnetic reference point in T1 measurements to determine distances to the protons and phosphorus atoms of the bound nucleotide and acceptor substrates. These distances have been used to construct models of the conformations of the bound substrates. The activating metal forms a second sphere complex of the metal-nucleotide substrate on pyruvate kinase and PP-Rib-P synthetase while the inhibitory metal directly coordinates the polyphosphate chain of the metal-nucleotide substrate on protein kinase. Essentially no change is found in the dihedral angle at the glycosidic bond of ATP upon binding to pyruvate kinase (chi = 30 degrees), an enzyme of low base specificity, but significant changes in the torsional angle of ATP occur on binding to protein kinase (chi = 84 degrees) and PP-Rib-P synthetase (chi = 62 degrees), enzymes with high adenine-base specificity. Intersubstrate distances, measured with tridentate CrATP or beta, gamma bidentate CrAMPPCP as paramagnetic reference points, have been used to deduce the distance along the reaction coordinate on each enzyme. The reaction coordinate distances on pyruvate kinase (# +/- 1 A) and PP-Rib-P synthetase (not less than 3.8 A) are consistent with associative mechanisms, while that on protein kinase (5 +/- 0.7 A) allows room for a dissociative mechanism.

Both metabolic acidosis and phosphorus (Pi) deprivation have been shown to alter not only renal Pi metabolism independent of parathyroid hormone (PTH), but also the phosphaturic response to PTH. In the present studies, we examined the interaction between metabolic acidosis and Pi deprivation on renal handling of Pi in an animal model in which metabolic acidosis was superimposed on 3 days of dietary Pi deprivation. The effect of metabolic acidosis was evaluated after acute (for 3 h) and chronic (for 3 days) administration of HCl. In Pi-deprived and thyroparathyroidectomized rats, chronic acidosis increased both plasma Pi and the basal fractional excretion of Pi (FEPi). Furthermore, chronic acidosis partially restored the phosphaturic response to PTH, which was totally absent in nonacidotic Pi-deprived rats. These effects metabolic acidosis were not demonstrable in acutely acidotic animals. Determination of PTH-dependent cAMP generation and cAMP-dependent protein kinase activation revealed that neither of these parameters was altered by chronic metabolic acidosis in vivo. These results show that in Pi-deprived rats chronic metabolic acidosis induced by HCl administration further modifies the renal handling of Pi associated with Pi deprivation. Further, the renal interaction between acidosis and Pi deprivation is at a step (or steps) after cAMP generation and protein kinase activation.

Co3+ and Cr3+ complexes of beta, gamma-methylene-ATP (AMPPCP), which are substitution-inert substrate analogues inactive in phosphoryl transfer reactions, have been used in binding and structural studies of cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Dissociation constants of enzyme complexes with Co(NH3)4AMPPCP and CrAMPPCP and with Mn2+, which binds at an inhibitory site, were determined by electron paramagnetic resonance and by proton relaxation rate enhancement techniques. Nuclear relaxation rate measurements at 100 and 360 MHz were used to determine the distance between Mn2+ and the beta, gamma-methylene protons of Co-(NH3)4AMPPCP, yielding 7.4 +/- 0.6 A in the absence of enzyme and 5.0 +/- 0.9 A when both Mn2+ and Co-(NH3)4AMPPCP were bound to the enzyme. The effect of the paramagnetic CrAMPPCP on the electron spin relaxation time of the enzyme-bound Mn2+ was used used to calculate the distance between the two metal ions of 4.8 +/- 0.4 A. This distance and the Mn2+-methylene distance are consistent with the previous finding that the inhibitory metal bridges the enzyme to the triphosphate chain of the enzyme-bound nucleotide [Granot, J., Kondo, H., Armstrong, R. M., Mildvan, A. S., & Kaiser, E. T. (1979) Biochemistry 18, 2339]. From the paramagnetic effects on the relaxation rates of the protons of the peptide substrate Leu-Arg-Arg-Ala-Ser-Leu-Gly, distances from Mn2+ and Cr3+ to the serine methylene protons of 9.1 +/- 0.9 and 8.1 +/- 0.8 A, respectively, were calculated. These and previous measurements were used to estimate a distance of 5.3 +/- 0.7 A along the reaction coordinate between the gamma-phosphorus of ATP and the serine hydroxyl oxygen. This distance is 2 A greater than that required for molecular contact. The mechanistic implications of these findings are discussed.

The crystal structure of the porcine heart catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase in a ternary complex with the MgATP analogue MnAMP-PNP and a pseudosubstrate inhibitor peptide, PKI(5-24), has been solved at 2.0 A resolution from monoclinic crystals of the catalytic subunit isoform CA. The refinement is presently at an R factor of 0.194 and the active site of the molecule is well defined. The glycine-rich phosphate anchor of the nucleotide binding fold motif of the protein kinase is a beta ribbon acting as a flap with conformational flexibility over the triphosphate group. The glycines seem to be conserved to avoid steric clash with ATP. The known synergistic effects of substrate binding can be explained by hydrogen bonds present only in the ternary complex. Implications for the kinetic scheme of binding order are discussed. The structure is assumed to represent a phosphotransfer competent conformation. The invariant conserved residue Asp166 is proposed to be the catalytic base and Lys168 to stabilize the transition state. In some tyrosine kinases Lys168 is functionally replaced by an Arg displaced by two residues in the primary sequence, suggesting invariance in three-dimensional space. The structure supports an in-line transfer with a pentacoordinate transition state at the phosphorus with very few nuclear movements.

1. In order to investigate the modulation of human hH1 sodium channel alpha-subunits by cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA), the channel was expressed in oocytes of Xenopus laevis. 2. Cytosolic injection of cAMP, as well as of SP-cyclic 3',5'-hydrogen phosphorothioate adenosine triethylammonium salt (SP-cAMPS, the S-diastereoisomeric configuration of the compound with respect to the phosphorus atom), resulted in a marked and significant increase in peak sodium current (INa,p). Cytosolic injections of RP-cyclic 3',5'-hydrogen phosphorothioate adenosine triethylammonium salt (RP-cAMPS; a compound inhibitory to PKA) had no effect on peak current. 3. Kinetic parameters of steady-state activation, inactivation and recovery from inactivation were unchanged following stimulation of PKA activity, but a 42 +/- 5% (mean +/- S.E.M.) increase in maximal sodium conductance (delta gmax) could account for the observed increase in INa,p. 4. A set of chimerical sodium channels made from portions of the human cardiac hH1 alpha-subunit and the rat skeletal muscle SkM1 alpha-subunit (which is not affected by PKA stimulation) was generated. These were used to localize the structural determinant in the hH1 sequence responsible for PKA modulation of hH1. From our data we conclude that the effects of PKA on hH1 are conferred by the large cytosolic loop interconnecting transmembrane domains I and II, which is not conserved among sodium channel subtypes.
