For use in studies of the functional organization of regulatory (R) subunit of type I cAMP-dependent protein kinase, 84 independent cyclic AMP-resistant mutants were isolated from sublines of S49 mouse lymphoma cells that are hemizygous for expression of the R subunit. Mutants were characterized by two-dimensional gel analysis of the R subunits, assays of kinase activation, and assays of cAMP-binding. All but eight of the mutants had kinases with increased apparent Kas for cAMP-dependent activation, and studies with site-selective cAMP analogs revealed considerable phenotypic diversity among these mutants. Forty-nine of the mutants had "charge-shift" lesions that mapped to regions of the R subunit polypeptide implicated in cAMP-binding. Twenty-five of the "charge-shift mutants" expressed only mutant R subunits, and the lesions in most of these isolates inhibited binding of cAMP to mutated cAMP-binding sites. The remainder of the charge-shift mutants expressed both mutant R subunit and R subunit with wild-type gel mobilities. The origin of these "heterozygous" mutants from parental "hemizygous" cells remains a puzzle.

A new temperature-sensitive mutant of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, gst1 (G1-to-S transition) was isolated. At nonpermissive temperature the mutant cells with large buds accumulated and DNA synthesis was substantially arrested. From the reciprocal experiment of temperature-shift and mating-factor treatment, it was shown that the execution point was post 'START'. This suggested that the mutation affected the G1-to-S phase transition in the cell cycle. A DNA clone complementing the gst1-1 mutation was isolated from a yeast gene library, and gst1 was mapped in chr4R, by Southern blotting of cloned sequence to the individual yeast chromosome DNA by OFAGE system and by genetic analysis. The gene product was tentatively assigned from DNA sequencing analysis, as a protein of mol. wt 76,565 which contained consensus sequences for a target site of cAMP-dependent protein kinase(s) and for GTPase with extensive homology to polypeptide chain elongation factor EF1 alpha.

Evidence from electrophysiological and ion flux studies has established that dihydropyridine-sensitive calcium channels are subject to regulation by neurotransmitter-mediated phosphorylation and dephosphorylation reactions. In the present study, we have further characterized the phosphorylation by cAMP-dependent protein kinase and a multifunctional Ca/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase of the membrane-associated form of the 165-kDa polypeptide identified as the skeletal muscle dihydropyridine receptor. The initial rates of phosphorylation of the 165-kDa peptide by both protein kinases were found to be relatively good compared to the rates of phosphorylation of established substrates of the enzymes. Phosphorylation of the 165-kDa peptide by both protein kinases was additive. Prior phosphorylation by either one of the kinases alone did not preclude phosphorylation by the second kinase. The cAMP-dependent protein kinase phosphorylated the 165-kDa peptide preferentially at serine residues, although a small amount of phosphothreonine was also formed. In contrast, after phosphorylation of the 165-kDa peptide by the Ca/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase, slightly more phosphothreonine than phosphoserine was recovered. Phosphopeptide mapping indicated that the two kinases phosphorylated the peptide at distinct as well as similar sites. Notably, one major site phosphorylated by the cAMP-dependent protein kinase was not phosphorylated by the Ca/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase, while other sites were phosphorylated to a high degree by the Ca/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase, but to a much lesser degree by the cAMP-dependent protein kinase. The results show that the 165-kDa dihydropyridine receptor from skeletal muscle can be multiply phosphorylated at distinct sites by the cAMP- and Ca/calmodulin-dependent protein kinases. As the 165-kDa peptide may be the major functional unit of the dihydropyridine-sensitive Ca channel, the results suggest that the phosphorylation-dependent modulation of Ca channel activity by neurotransmitters may involve phosphorylation of the 165-kDa peptide at multiple sites.

Photolabelling with 32P-8-azido-cAMP identified a major cAMP-binding protein (54 kDa) in isolated rabbit renal apical membranes, whose labelling was competitively inhibited by cAMP. Membrane associated cAMP-binding polypeptides were extensively purified by affinity chromatography on cAMP-Sepharose. The 54 kDa polypeptide represented 70-80% of the total protein eluted with cAMP. This protein was rapidly phosphorylated by the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase, with a shift in its apparent mobility on SDS-PAGE to Mr 56/58,000. The phosphopeptide maps of autophosphorylated rat skeletal muscle RII and rabbit kidney 56/58 kDa proteins were essentially identical. Western immuno-blot analysis, using antibodies generated against purified rat RI and RII, indicated preferential cross-reactivity of rabbit kidney 54 kDa protein with anti-RII antibodies. The data demonstrates the specific association of the regulatory subunit of type II cAMP dependent protein kinase with rabbit renal brush border membranes.

Five protein kinases are shown to serve as specific phosphatases in the absence of ADP. Although the rates of hydrolysis are very slow compared to the forward phosphorylation rates under optimal conditions, they are of the same order as the reverse reaction in the presence of ADP. Because cells contain approximately equal to 3 mM ATP, neither the reverse reaction nor the phosphatase is likely to play a physiological role. beta-casein B phosphorylated by the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase A) is specifically dephosphorylated by protein kinase A but not by polypeptide-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase P). beta-casein B phosphorylated by protein kinase P is specifically dephosphorylated by protein kinase P but not by protein kinase A. Histone H1 phosphorylated by protein kinase C is dephosphorylated by the same enzyme in the absence of ADP. In all cases tested addition of ADP and F1-ATPase accelerates moderately the rate of dephosphorylation. Native H+-ATPase from yeast plasma membranes is isolated mainly in the phosphorylated form. It is dephosphorylated and rephosphorylated by protein kinase P but not by protein kinase A. Protein-tyrosine kinase of the epidermal growth factor receptor phosphorylates the random synthetic polypeptide poly(Glu80Tyr20). The phosphorylated polymer is specifically dephosphorylated in the absence of ADP by epidermal growth factor receptor preparations but not by insulin receptor preparations. The same polymer phosphorylated by insulin receptor is dephosphorylated by insulin receptor but not by epidermal growth factor receptor preparations. By using a cycle of dephosphorylation-rephosphorylation, it is possible to identify proteins that are phosphorylated by these protein kinases in vivo. Should this method be applicable to additional protein kinases, it should be possible to estimate the quantitative contribution of each protein kinase to a single phosphoprotein.

Purified testicular and ovarian luteinizing hormone/human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) receptors are phosphorylated at serine and threonine residues by the catalytic subunit of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase A). Occupancy of the receptors by hCG significantly increased the rate but not the extent of phosphorylation. However, prolonged preincubation of receptors with hCG reduced the subsequent rate of receptor phosphorylation. Identical phosphopeptide maps were obtained for the phosphorylated ovarian and testicular receptors. The phosphorylated receptor, like the native receptor, bound to wheat germ lectin and hCG-Sepharose and migrated as a single band of Mr 90,000 (testis) and Mr 85,000 (ovary) on NaDodSO4/PAGE. Neuraminidase treatment of receptors caused reductions of molecular weight to 82,000 (testis) and 77,000 (ovary), and further treatment with O-Glycanase had minimal effect on molecular size. However, deglycosylation with N-Glycosidase and endoglycosidase F produced a single labeled polypeptide of Mr 59,000 for both gonadal receptors. Treatment of native receptors with neuraminidase caused no apparent change in binding of gonadotropin to blotted receptors, whereas deglycosylated receptors showed a major reduction in hormone binding. These results indicate that luteinizing hormone/hCG receptors are sialoglycoproteins with predominantly N-linked glycosyl residues that account for the size difference between testicular and ovarian receptors and that may participate in the interaction with gonadotropin. Receptor occupancy by agonist leads to a conformational change that facilitates its phosphorylation during initial binding and reduces the rate of phosphorylation after more prolonged exposure to hCG.

The previously determined sequence of the murine T-cell gamma gene and its transcription in cloned T lymphocytes suggests that the polypeptide encoded by this gene is generally present in cytotoxic T cells as a 33-kDa monomer in a disulfide-bonded dimer. The gamma chain is also expected to be phosphorylated because a sequence in its cytoplasmic domain is homologous to an active site for serine phosphorylation in the regulatory subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase. We describe here a cytotoxic-T-cell-associated phosphorylated protein, many of whose properties suggest that it may be the product of the T-cell gamma gene. Its phosphorylation is greatly enhanced by interleukin 2 stimulation.

Calmodulin has been shown to interact with high affinity with muscle phosphofructokinase (Mayr, G. W. (1984) Eur. J. Biochem. 143, 513-520, 521-529). In this study, direct binding measurements indicated that each of the two subunits of dimeric phosphofructokinase bound two calmodulins with Kd values of about 3 nM and 1 microM, respectively, in a strictly Ca2+-dependent way. To get more detailed information about this interaction, calmodulin-binding fragments were isolated from a CNBr digest of phosphofructokinase using affinity chromatography on calmodulin-agarose. Two fragments, M11 (Mr 3080) and M22 (Mr 8060), formed a 1:1 stoichiometric complex with Ca2+-calmodulin. The amino acid sequences of these fragments were determined, and their positions in the three-dimensional structure-model of phosphofructokinase are proposed. Fragment M11, which binds to calmodulin with the higher affinity (Kd 11.4 nM), is located in a region of the subunit where two dimers have been proposed to make contacts if associating to active tetrameric enzyme. A stabilization of the dimeric form of the enzyme by binding of calmodulin supports this location of M11. The weaker binding fragment M22 (Kd 198 nM) corresponds to the C-terminal part of the polypeptide and contains the site which is phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Both fragments have structural properties in common with the isolated calmodulin-binding domains of myosin light chain kinase: two cationic segments rich in hydrophobic residues, one constantly possessing a tryptophan, and the other exhibiting an amino acid sequence resembling sites phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase.

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.

We report the phosphorylation of lens membranes with a cAMP-dependent protein kinase isolated from bovine lenses. The holoenzyme was eluted from DEAE agarose at less than 100 mM NaCl and from gel filtration columns with a relative molecular weight of 180 000. The regulatory subunit was identified with the affinity label 8-azido-[32P]cAMP. Four focusing variants with relative molecular weights of 49 000 were seen on two-dimensional gels. The catalytic subunit was purified approx. 5000-fold and migrated at 42 000 Mr on SDS gels. Based on these observations, the enzyme is classified as a Type I cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Purified lens plasma membranes were incubated with the holoenzyme or its catalytic subunit in the presence of 32P-labeled ATP. Several membrane proteins, including the major lens membrane polypeptide, MP26, were shown to be substrates for the kinase in this reaction. MP26 appears to be the major component of intercellular junctions in the lens. Studies with protease treatments on labeled membranes appeared to localize the phosphorylation sites to the cytoplasmic side of the membrane.
