Phosphorylation of the rat brain ryanodine receptor was studied using a monoclonal antibody, Ry-1, against the cardiac ryanodine receptor. A large polypeptide with the same SDS-PAGE mobility as that of the canine cardiac receptor was detected in rat brain membranes by immunoblotting. The brain ryanodine receptor was solubilized from the microsomal membranes with 3-[(3-cholamidopropyl)dimethylammonio]-1-propanesulfonic acid (CHAPS), and more than 85% of the solubilized receptor was immunoprecipitated by Ry-1. Immunoprecipitated receptors were phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase. The ryanodine receptor was also expressed in cultured fetal rat brain neurons and was phosphorylated by treating the cells with dibutyryl cAMP. The number of cells showing a caffeine-induced Ca2+ transient was increased significantly in the phosphorylating condition. These results suggest that the Ca channel activity of the brain ryanodine receptor is regulated by cAMP-dependent phosphorylation.

We studied beta-adrenergic agonist-stimulated phosphorylation of the ryanodine receptor in rat cardiac myocytes. The ryanodine receptor solubilized from myocytes and immunoprecipitated by a monoclonal antibody against canine cardiac ryanodine receptor was phosphorylated by the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA). Incubation of saponin-permeabilized myocytes with [gamma-32P]ATP also induced ryanodine receptor phosphorylation, which was enhanced significantly in the presence of isoproterenol. This stimulating action of isoproterenol was suppressed by the beta-adrenergic antagonist, propranolol. On the other hand, exogenously added cAMP caused a much larger stimulation of phosphorylation of the ryanodine receptor in permeabilized myocytes. The beta-agonist-induced phosphorylation of the ryanodine receptor was also observed in intact myocytes from the newborn rat heart. These results suggest that the ryanodine receptor is phosphorylated by PKA during beta-adrenergic stimulation of cardiac myocytes.

The exogenous addition of the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA), cGMP-dependent protein kinase (PKG), or calmodulin (CaM) induced rapid phosphorylation of the ryanodine receptor (Ca2+ release channel) in canine cardiac microsomes treated with 1 mM [gamma-32P]ATP. Added protein kinase C (PKC) also phosphorylated the cardiac ryanodine receptor but at a relatively slow rate. The observed level of PKA-, PKG-, or PKC-dependent phosphorylation of the ryanodine receptor was comparable to the maximum level of [3H]ryanodine binding in cardiac microsomes, whereas the level of CaM-dependent phosphorylation was about 4 times greater. Phosphorylation by PKA, PKG, and PKC increased [3H]ryanodine binding in cardiac microsomes by 22 +/- 5, 17 +/- 4, and 15 +/- 9% (average +/- SD, n = 4-5), respectively. In contrast, incubation of microsomes with 5 microM CaM alone and 5 microM CaM plus 1 mM ATP decreased [3H]ryanodine binding by 38 +/- 14 and 53 +/- 15% (average +/- SD, n = 6), respectively. Phosphopeptide mapping and phosphoamino acid analysis provided evidence suggesting that PKA, PKG, and PKC predominantly phosphorylate serine residue(s) in the same phosphopeptide (peptide 1), whereas the endogenous CaM-kinase phosphorylates serine residue(s) in a different phosphopeptide (peptide 4). Photoaffinity labeling of microsomes with photoreactive 125I-labeled CaM revealed that CaM bound to a high molecular weight protein, which was immunoprecipitated by a monoclonal antibody against the cardiac ryanodine receptor. These results suggest that protein kinase-dependent phosphorylation and CaM play important regulatory roles in the function of the cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ release channel.

The phosphorylation of canine cardiac and skeletal muscle ryanodine receptors by the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase has been studied. A high-molecular-weight protein (Mr 400,000) in cardiac microsomes was phosphorylated by the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase. A monoclonal antibody against the cardiac ryanodine receptor immunoprecipitated this phosphoprotein. In contrast, high-molecular-weight proteins (Mr 400,000-450,000) in canine skeletal microsomes isolated from extensor carpi radialis (fast) or superficial digitalis flexor (slow) muscle fibers were not significantly phosphorylated. In agreement with these findings, the ryanodine receptor purified from cardiac microsomes was also phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Phosphorylation of the cardiac ryanodine receptor in microsomal and purified preparations occurred at the ratio of about one mol per mol of ryanodine-binding site. Upon phosphorylation of the cardiac ryanodine receptor, the levels of [3H]ryanodine binding at saturating concentrations of this ligand increased by up to 30% in the presence of Ca2+ concentrations above 1 microM in both cardiac microsomes and the purified cardiac ryanodine receptor preparation. In contrast, the Ca2+ concentration dependence of [3H]ryanodine binding did not change significantly. These results suggest that phosphorylation of the ryanodine receptor by cAMP-dependent protein kinase may be an important regulatory mechanism for the calcium release channel function in the cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum.

In this study, we define calmodulin binding sites of skeletal, cardiac, and brain ryanodine receptor (RYR) Ca2+ channels. Cardiac and brain RYR peptides corresponding to the calmodulin binding sites present in the skeletal RYR [Menegazzi, P., et al. (1994) Biochemistry 33, 9078-9084] were synthesized, and their interaction with calmodulin was monitored by fluorescent techniques. The central portions of the skeletal, cardiac, and brain RYR protomers display one high (CaM1; Kd ranging between 2.7 and 10.2 nM) and one low affinity (CaM2; Kd ranging between 116 and 142 nM) calmodulin binding site. Depending on the RYR model having 4 or 12 transmembrane segments, a third calmodulin binding site (CaM3) was identified a few residues upstream from the putative transmembrane segment M1 or M5. Its affinity for calmodulin varied between the RYR isoforms: the cardiac RYR CaM3 displays a high affinity (9.09 +/- 1.0 nM, n = 5), while the skeletal and brain RYR CaM3 have low affinity, the lowest affinity being displayed by the brain isoform (234 +/- 39 nM, n = 3). The RYRs calmodulin binding site CaM1 encompasses the sequence Arg-His-Arg-Val(Ile)-Ser-Leu, which is phosphorylated in vitro by the catalytic subunit of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Phosphorylation of RYR PM1 peptides occurs on the Ser, corresponding to amino acid number 2919, 3020, and 3055 of the brain, cardiac, and skeletal RYR protomers, respectively. We found that phosphorylation of the RYR PM1 peptides was inhibited by calmodulin binding and that the formation of the PM1 peptide-calmodulin complex was inhibited by peptide phosphorylation. These data indicate that the effect of calmodulin binding to RYR CaM1 may be regulated by the phosphorylation state of the Ser residue localized within the sequence Arg-His-Arg-Val(Ile)-Ser-Leu.

We have demonstrated recently that in cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR), a membrane-associated Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase (CaM kinase) phosphorylates and activates the Ca(2+)-pumping ATPase (Ca(2+)-ATPase) in addition to phosphorylating the previously characterized substrates, phospholamban, and Ca2+ release channel (ryanodine receptor) (Xu, A., Hawkins, C., and Narayanan, N. (1993) J. Biol. Chem. 268, 8394-8397). The present study shows that a CaM kinase regulatory system capable of modulating SR Ca2+ pump activity through direct phosphorylation of the Ca(2+)-ATPase is functional in slow twitch but not fast twitch skeletal muscle. Incubation of SR vesicles isolated from rabbit slow twitch (soleus) and fast twitch (adductor magnus) skeletal muscles in the presence of Ca2+ and calmodulin resulted in phosphorylation of the Ca(2+)-ATPase in slow twitch muscle SR but not in fast twitch muscle SR. Exogenous CaM kinase II, which stimulated phosphorylation of the cardiac and slow twitch muscle SR Ca(2+)-ATPase, failed to phosphorylate fast twitch muscle SR Ca(2+)-ATPase. These observations demonstrate that CaM kinase-catalyzed phosphorylation of the Ca2+ pump is isoform-specific since heart and slow twitch muscle express the same Ca(2+)-ATPase isoform (SERCA2a), which is distinct from that of fast twitch muscle (SERCA1). As in the case of cardiac SR Ca(2+)-ATPase, phosphorylation of the slow twitch muscle SR Ca(2+)-ATPase (occurring at a serine residue) resulted in a 2-fold increase in catalytic activity of the enzyme without alteration in its Ca2+ sensitivity. In addition, Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent prephosphorylation of slow twitch muscle SR resulted in a greater than 2-fold increase in its Ca2+ transport activity. In both cardiac and slow twitch muscle SR, phosphorylation of the Ca(2+)-ATPase by the endogenous CaM kinase occurred rapidly (maximum within 2 min at 37 degrees C), had similar pH optimum (8.5-9.0), temperature optimum (30 degrees C), and calmodulin concentration-dependence (k0.5 50-60 nM). cAMP-dependent protein kinase did not phosphorylate the Ca(2+)-ATPase appreciably in either cardiac or slow twitch muscle SR. These findings suggest a muscle-specific role for the membrane-associated CaM kinase in the modulation of Ca2+ uptake and release functions of the SR. In cardiac and slow twitch muscle, phosphorylation of the SR Ca(2+)-ATPase by CaM kinase might provide a novel mechanism for the modulation of the enzymatic and Ca2+ transport functions of this enzyme.

The aim of the present study was to determine the phosphorylation of the purified ryanodine receptor-calcium release channel (RyR) of rabbit skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum by the cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PK-A), cGMP-dependent protein kinase (PK-G) and Ca(2+)-, CaM-dependent protein kinase (PK-CaM) and the localization of phosphorylation sites. Phosphorylation was highest with PK-A (about 0.9 mol phosphate/mol receptor subunit), between one-half to two-thirds with PK-G and between one-third and more than two-thirds with PK-CaM. Phosphoamino acid analysis revealed solely labeled phosphoserine with PK-A and PK-G and phosphoserine and phosphothreonine with PK-CaM. Reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) of cyanogen bromide/trypsin digests of the phosphorylated RyR (purified by gel permeation HPLC) and two-dimensional peptide maps revealed one major phosphopeptide by PK-A and PK-G phosphorylation and several labeled peaks by PK-CaM phosphorylation. Automated Edman sequence analysis of the major phosphopeptide obtained from PK-A and PK-G phosphorylation and one phosphopeptide obtained from PK-CaM phosphorylation yielded the sequence KISQTAQTYDPR (residues 2841-2852) with serine 2843 as phosphorylation site (corresponding to the consensus sequence RKIS), demonstrating that all three protein kinases phosphorylate the same serine residue in the center of the receptor subunit, a region proposed to contain the modulator binding sites of the calcium release channel.

Porcine skeletal and cardiac muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) vesicle fractions enriched in the ryanodine receptor were phosphorylated in the presence of [gamma-32P]MgATP and either exogenous cAMP-dependent protein kinase (cAMP-PK), or Ca2+ plus calmodulin. Phosphorylation of the cardiac muscle ryanodine receptor in the presence of either cAMP-PK or calmodulin (6.4 and 10.6 pmol Pi/mg SR respectively) was approximately equal to or twice the [3H]ryanodine binding activity of this preparation (5.2 pmol/mg). Furthermore, cardiac muscle ryanodine receptor Pi incorporation catalyzed by cAMP-PK and calmodulin was approximately additive. In skeletal muscle SR, however, the level of cAMP-PK or calmodulin catalyzed phosphorylation of the intact ryanodine receptor (0.2 or 2.9 pmol Pi/mg SR, respectively) was much less than the [3H]ryanodine binding activity of this fraction (11.6 pmol/mg). Furthermore, Pi incorporation into the intact skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor was 3-8-fold less than that incorporated into a component of slightly lower M(r). Although this latter component comigrated with an immunoreactive fragment of the ryanodine receptor on polyacrylamide gels, it did not appear to be derived from the ryanodine receptor. We conclude that the significant phosphorylation of the cardiac muscle SR ryanodine receptor indicates a likely physiological role for protein kinase-mediated regulation of this Ca(2+)-channel. In contrast, the minimal phosphorylation of the skeletal muscle SR ryanodine receptor indicates that such a role of protein kinases is unlikely in this tissue.

In the adult myocardium the Ca2+ uptake and release functions of the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) are known to be regulated by a membrane-associated Ca2+-calmodulin-dependent protein kinase (CaM kinase) which phosphorylates the Ca2+-pumping ATPase (Ca2+ pump), Ca2+ release channel (ryanodine receptor) and the Ca2+ pump-regulatory protein, phospholamban. The role of CaM kinase during development, however, has not been examined previously. The present study investigated the ontogenetic expression of SR-associated CaM kinase in the rabbit myocardium as well as development-related changes in CaM kinase-mediated phosphorylation of the SR proteins (Ca2+ pump, Ca2+ release channel and phospholamban) involved in transmembrane Ca2+ cycling. For these experiments, cardiac muscle homogenate and SR-enriched membrane fraction derived from fetal (21- and 28-days gestation), newborn (2 days postnatal) and adult New Zealand White rabbits were used. Western immunoblotting analysis detected the presence of phospholamban, Ca2+ pump and Ca2+ release channel in homogenate and SR at all ages tested. The amount of these proteins in the SR increased substantially during fetal and postnatal development. Phosphorylation studies revealed the presence of CaM kinase-dependent phosphorylation of the Ca2+ pump, Ca2+ release channel and phospholamban as early as 21-days gestation. This phosphorylation could be elicited with the addition of only Ca2+ and calmodulin indicating the presence of a SR-associated CaM kinase as early as 21-days gestation. This was confirmed using a delta-CaM kinase II-specific antibody. Phosphorylation per unit amount of each substrate was greater in the fetus and newborn compared to adult. Phosphorylation of phospholamban could be elicited by exogenous cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) at all developmental stages studied. Activation of SR CaM kinase with Ca2+ and calmodulin, or induction of phospholamban phosphorylation by exogenous PKA, resulted in stimulation of the Ca2+ uptake activity of SR in fetal, newborn and adult heart. These results demonstrate early ontogenetic expression of the Ca2+ cycling proteins and CaM kinase in the SR and the concurrent development of phosphorylation-dependent regulation of SR Ca2+ cycling.

The hypothesis that cAMP-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase A; PKA) is in an active state in small arteries possessing a myogenic tone was investigated in pressurized rat tail small arteries. At a pressure of 80 mmHg, these vessels constricted to 71.6 +/- 1.0% (n = 32) of the diameter of the fully relaxed state. The PKA inhibitors Rp-8-(4-chlorophenylthio)-adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphothioate (Rp-CPT-cAMPS) and N-(2-([3-(4-bromophenyl)-2-propenyl]amino)-ethyl)-5- isoquinolinesulfonamide HCl (H-89) constricted these vessels dose dependently. For example, 300 microM Rp-CPT-cAMPS and 9 microM H-89 reduced vessel diameter by 11.0 +/- 1.2% (n = 8) and 14.3 +/- 3.6% (n = 5), respectively. The cGMP-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase G; PKG) inhibitor Rp-8-bromo-beta-phenyl-1,N(2)-etheno-guanosine 3', 5'-cyclic monophosphothioate (Rp-8-Br-PET-cGMPS) did not alter vessel diameter up to a concentration of 10 microM. Neither endothelium removal nor inhibition of neural transmission affected the action of Rp-CPT-cAMPS. The effect of 300 microM Rp-CPT-cAMPS was reduced by 82% after pretreatment of the vessel with 100 nM iberiotoxin, a blocker of calcium-activated potassium (K(Ca)) channels. However, the effect of 300 microM Rp-CPT-cAMPS was not altered after pretreatment with 1 mM 4-aminopyridine, a blocker of delayed rectifier potassium channels, or 10 microM ryanodine, a blocker of ryanodine receptor-generated calcium sparks. In inside-out patch-clamp experiments on cells isolated from rat tail small arteries, 10 U/ml of the catalytic subunit of PKA together with 100 microM MgATP increased K(Ca) channel activity 30.1 +/- 9. 8-fold (n = 9). Additionally, neither inhibition of PKA or PKG nor moderate activation of PKA or PKG altered the vessel response to a pressure step from 80 to 120 mmHg. These results suggest that in rat tail small arteries possessing a myogenic tone 1) PKA is in an active state modulating the level of the myogenic tone, and 2) K(Ca) channels mediate, at least partly, this effect of PKA.
