The stimulatory and inhibitory activities in the crude preparation of protein kinase modulator from dog heart were separated by Sephadex G-100 gel filtration, and the stimulatory modulator was further purified by DEAE-cellulose chromatography. The isolated stimulatory modulator, as the crude modulator preparation, stimulated the activity of the purified guanosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cGMP)-dependent protein kinases of both mammalian and arthropod origins in the presence of cGMP. The cGMP-dependent protein kinases were not activated by cGMP in the absence of either the isolated stimulatory modulator or the crude modulator. The stimulatory modulator, unlike the crude modulator had no effect on the activity of adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cAMP)-dependent protein kinase. The stimulatory modulator was a protein since its activity was destroyed by trypsin but was resistant to hydrolysis by DNase, RNase, phospholipase C, and lysozyme. The isolated inhibitory modulator, presumably the same as the protein inhibitor of cAMP-dependent protein kinase reported by Walsh et al. (Wash. D.A., Ashby, C.D., Gonzalez, C., Calkins, D., Fischer. E.H., and Krebs, E.G. (1971) J. Biol. Chem. 246, 1977-1985), depressed the cAMP-stimulated activity of cAMP-dependent protein kinase as did the crude preparation of protein kinase modulator. The isolated inhibitory modulator, unlike the crude preparation, was without effect on cGMP-dependent protein kinase. The present findings provide evidence to support that in mammals there are separate proteins for the stimulatory and the inhibitory activities of protein kinase modulator, in contrast to the modulator from an arthropod tissue (lobster tail muscle, Donnelly et al. (Donnelly, T.E., Jr., Kuo, J.F., Reyes, P.L., Liu, Y.P., and Greengard, P. (1973) J. Biol. Chem. 248, 190-198) which has been shown to possess both activities.

The heat-stable protein (protein kinase modulator), partially purified from fresh bovine heart, possessed the ability to inhibit and stimulate adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cAMP)-dependent protein kinase and guanosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cGMP)-dependent protein kinase activities, respectively. The inhibitory activity of protein kinase modulator on cAMP-dependent protein kinase was abolished almost completely by trypsin treatment, while the ability to stimulate cGMP-dependent protein kinase activity was resistant to trypsin. Fractionation by a linear potassium phosphate gradient on DEAE-cellulose column did not clearly separate both activities. Phosphorylation of cardiac microsomal component, "phospholamban" (molecular weight = 22,000), was inhibited almost completely by the saturating amounts of protein kinase modulator. This inhibition of phospholamban phosphorylation by protein kinase modulator was accompanied by a decreased Ca uptake rate that had been stimulated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase. These findings indicate that protein kinase modulator is functional in controlling the cAMP-dependent protein kinase-catalyzed phosphorylation of phospholamban and the rate of calcium transport, lending further support for the previously proposed mechanism, in which phospholamban is assumed to serve as a regulator of calcium transport in cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum.

In these studies we demonstrate that insulin stimulates both tyrosine and serine phosphorylation of the insulin receptor after its partial purification on wheat germ-agarose, and after affinity purification on insulin-agarose. Analysis of the serine phosphate incorporated into partially purified or highly purified insulin receptor suggests that an insulin-sensitive serine kinase (IRSK) copurifies with the insulin receptor. Following trypsin digestion, reversed-phase high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis of the phosphorylated, affinity-purified insulin receptor preparation reveals phosphopeptide profiles similar to those of trypsin-digested receptors immunoprecipitated from 32P-labeled fibroblasts overexpressing the human insulin receptor. The major insulin-stimulated HPLC phosphopeptide peak from insulin receptors labeled in intact cells contains a hydrophilic phosphoserine-containing peptide which rapidly elutes from a C18 column. HPLC and two-dimensional separation indicate that the same phosphopeptide is obtained when affinity-purified insulin receptors are phosphorylated by IRSK. The serine containing tryptic peptide within the cytoplasmic domain of the human insulin receptor predicted to elute most rapidly upon HPLC had the sequence SSHCQR corresponding to residues 1293-1298. A synthetic peptide containing this sequence is phosphorylated by the insulin receptor/IRSK preparation. After alkylation and trypsin digestion, the synthetic phosphopeptide comigrates with the alkylated, tryptic phosphopeptide derived from insulin receptor phosphorylated in vitro by IRSK. We propose that serine 1293 or 1294 of the human insulin receptor is a major site(s) phosphorylated on the insulin receptor in intact cells and is phosphorylated by IRSK. Furthermore, insulin added directly to affinity-purified insulin receptor/IRSK preparations stimulates the phosphorylation of synthetic peptides corresponding to this receptor phosphorylation site and another containing threonine 1336. Kemptide phosphorylation is not stimulated by insulin under these conditions. No phosphorylation of peptide substrates for Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase, protein kinase C, casein kinase II, or cGMP-dependent protein kinase by IRSK is detected. These data indicate that IRSK exhibits specificity for the insulin receptor and may be activated by the insulin receptor tyrosine kinase in an insulin-dependent manner.

Relaxation of rat aorta segments with sodium nitroprusside and endothelium-dependent vasodilators, such as acetylcholine, histamine, A23187, ATP, thrombin, and trypsin, is associated with cyclic-GMP (cGMP) accumulation in a concentration- and time-dependent fashion. With rat aorta segments, these agents also increase cyclic GMP-dependent protein-kinase activity and alter the incorporation of 32P into numerous smooth-muscle proteins. Identical patterns of protein phosphorylation were observed with both classes of relaxants on two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and autoradiography. The effects of nitroprusside were observed with or without the endothelium present. In contrast, the effects of the endothelium-dependent agents on all of these parameters (cGMP, cGMP-dependent protein kinase and protein phosphorylation) required the integrity of the endothelium. Various inhibitors of phospholipase and lypoxygenase prevented the effects of the endothelium-dependent agents, suggesting that a metabolite of arachidonic acid is the endothelium-relaxant factor and responsible for guanylate-cyclase activation. A smooth-muscle protein with decreased 32P incorporation after treatment with either class of relaxants has been identified as myosin light chain. A model is presented suggesting that the effects of endothelium-dependent vasodilators and directly acting nitrovasodilators converge at the level of guanylate-cyclase activation and cGMP accumulation, which explains the common biochemical and physiological effects on smooth muscle of these two classes of vasodilators.

Treatment of cGMP-dependent protein kinase with low concentrations of trypsin generates an enzyme fragment of 65 kDa which is fully active in the absence of cGMP. The fragment has a s20,w value of 4.6 S indicating that the active fragment is a monomer of 65 kDa. Trypsin removes the first 77 amino acids which contain the aminoterminal dimerization site and the autophosphorylation sites. The Km and Vmax values of the fragment for ATP and Kemptide were essentially the same as those for the native enzyme. The fragment binds 2 mol cGMP/mol fragment with affinities close to that of the native enzyme. However, binding of cGMP to these sites was non-cooperative and shows similar characteristics to the autophosphorylated native enzyme. These results indicate that the aminoterminal dimerization site of cGMP-dependent protein kinase and the autophosphorylation site, present in this part, control not only the activation of the enzyme but also the cooperative binding characteristics of the intact enzyme.

The purified catalytic subunit (C) of cAMP-dependent protein kinase produced a 2-fold activation of the low Km phosphodiesterase in crude microsomes (P-2 pellet) of rat adipocytes. This activation was C subunit concentration-dependent, ATP-dependent, blocked by a specific peptide inhibitor, and lost if the C subunit was first heat denatured. The concentration of ATP necessary for half-maximal activation of the low Km phosphodiesterase was 4.50 +/- 1.1 microM, which was nearly the same as the known Km of C subunit for ATP (3.1 microM) using other substrates. The concentration of C subunit producing half-maximal activation of phosphodiesterase was 0.22 +/- 0.04 microM, slightly less than the measured concentration of total C subunit in adipocytes (0.45 microM). The activation of the low Km phosphodiesterase by C subunit was specific, since on an equimolar basis, myosin light chain kinase, cGMP-dependent protein kinase, or Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II did not activate the enzyme. The percent stimulation of phosphodiesterase by C subunit was about the same as that produced by incubation of adipocytes with a cAMP analog, and the enzyme first activated in vivo with the analog was not activated to the same extent (on a percentage basis) by in vitro treatment with C subunit. Treatment of the crude microsomes with trypsin resulted in transfer of phosphodiesterase catalytic activity from the particulate to the supernatant fraction, but the enzyme in the supernatant was minimally activated by C subunit, suggesting either loss or dislocation of the regulatory component. The C subunit-mediated activation of phosphodiesterase was preserved after either transfer of phosphodiesterase activity to the supernatant fraction by nonionic detergents or partial purification of the transferred enzyme. The present findings are consistent with the suggestion that protein kinase regulates the concentration of cAMP through phosphodiesterase activation and provide direct evidence that the mechanism of activation involves phosphorylation.

Monomeric regulatory subunit (R) fragments of type II cAMP-dependent protein kinase were compared with the parent dimeric R. The monomeric fragments were generated by either endogenous proteolysis of rabbit muscle R or by trypsin treatment of bovine heart R in the holoenzyme form. During isolation of pure R from rabbit muscle, carboxyl-terminal fragments of Mr = 42,000 (42 K) and Mr = 37,000 by denaturing gels are generated by endogenous proteolysis. Although the autophosphorylation site is retained, the 42 K is not dimeric (as is its native 56 K precursor) but, in contrast to the monomeric 37 K product, actively reassociates with purified catalytic subunit (C). Several lines of evidence indicate a type II R origin of the 42 K. N-terminal sequence analysis of the 42 K shows some homology with known bovine RI, RII, and cGMP-dependent protein kinase sequences. Both cyclic nucleotide-binding sites (two/42 K or 37 K) and the site selectivity of cAMP analogs are retained in the monomeric fragments. When purified bovine heart holoenzyme, which contains a dimeric Mr = 56,000 R (denaturing gel analysis) and two C subunits, is treated with trypsin followed by separation procedures, the product is a fully recovered active enzyme with an unaltered ratio of cAMP binding to catalytic activity. From Mr considerations, the product is a dimer containing one intact C and a proteolyzed R of Mr = 48,000 on denaturing gels. This dimeric enzyme is not significantly different from the parent tetramer in cAMP concentration dependence (Hill constant = 1.63), [3H]cAMP dissociation behavior (both intrasubunit cAMP-binding sites are present), stimulation of [3H]cIMP binding by site-selective cAMP analogs, and synergism between two analogs in kinase activation. The data indicate that 1) proteolytic cleavage of the native R dimer can cause monomerization without appreciably affecting the inhibition of C and 2) essentially all of the cAMP binding cooperativity is an intrasubunit interaction.

Cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinase in extracts of bovine aortic tissue eluted from DEAE-cellulose ion-exchange resins as two distinct peaks of activity. This elution pattern was preserved when the peaks were combined, precipitated with ammonium sulfate, dialyzed, and rechromatographed. Proteolysis did not appear to account for the two forms of kinase because (i) aging of the extract did not cause interconversion of the two forms, and (ii) both forms retained cGMP sensitivity unlike the proteolytically formed monomer. In addition, treatment with saturating concentrations of cGMP (10 microM) did not cause interconversion of the two forms. The first peak of cGMP-dependent protein kinase eluting from DEAE-cellulose (form 1) had a slightly greater mobility on gradient sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels than the second peak (form 2). On native, nondenaturing gradient polyacrylamide gels, however, form 2 displayed the greater electrophoretic mobility. Furthermore, form 1, when bound to cAMP-agarose, appeared to exchange more rapidly with cGMP than form 2 when subjected to affinity chromatography. Peptide maps generated from the two forms by protease treatment were very similar, although trypsin produced a unique peptide in form 1 and Streptomyces griseus protease gave rise to unique peptides in forms 1 and 2. Phosphorylation did not appear to account for the physical differences because both enzymes could be phosphorylated to similar extents and dephosphorylation using alkaline phosphatase did not result in the conversion of one form to the other. These results suggest that either differences in primary structure or post-translational modification, other than phosphorylation, are responsible for the presence of two forms of cGMP-dependent protein kinase in aortic tissue.

Homogenous regulatory subunit from rabbit skeletal muscle cAMP-dependent protein kinase (isozyme I) was partially hydrolyzed with low (1 g/1300 g) or high (1 g/6 g) concentrations of trypsin. After treatment with low trypsin two main peptides (Mr = 35,000 and 12,000) were produced. The cAMP-binding activity (2 mol cAMP/mol of subunit monomer) was recovered in the monomeric Mr = 35,000 peptide. The ability of either fragment to inhibit catalytic subunit activity was lost. Treatment of the regulatory subunit with a high concentration of trypsin yielded three main fragments (Mr = 32,000, 16,000, and 6,000) which could be resolved by Sephadex G-75 and purified further on DEAE-cellulose columns. One of the peptides (Mr = 32,000) bound 2 mol cAMP/mol fragment. The Mr = 16,000 fragment was very labile and bound cAMP with an undetermined stoichiometry. Cyclic AMP dissociation curves for the native regulatory subunit and its Mr = 32,000 component were similar and suggested the presence of two nonidentical binding sites in each monomer. Using the same procedure, the Mr = 16,000 fragment or homogenous cGMP-dependent protein kinase appeared to contain a single type of binding site. Purified Mr = 32,000 fragment was readily converted to the Mr = 16,000 fragment using high trypsin as assessed by protein bands on SDS-disc gels or by following transfer of radioactivity from Mr = 32,000 peptide covalently labeled with 8-N3-[32P] cAMP to radiolabeled Mr = 16,000 fragment. The smallest regulatory subunit fragment (Mr = 6,000) did not bind cAMP, but was dimeric and could be part of the dimerization domain in the native protein. A model is presented to explain the possible structural-functional relationships of the regulatory subunit.

The amino acid sequence around the site of the regulatory subunit of type I cAMP-dependent protein kinase (RI) that is phosphorylated by cGMP-dependent protein kinase has been determined. This site was found to be located near the site on RI previously shown to be very sensitive to hydrolysis by trypsin (Potter, R. L., and Taylor, S. S. (1979) J. Biol. Chem. 254, 2413-2418). The primary sequence surrounding the site is as follows: -Lys-Ala-Gly-Ser-Arg-Ala-Asp-Ser-Arg-Glu-Asp-Glu-Ile-Ser-Pro-Pro-Pro-Pro-Asn-Pro-Val-Val-Lys-Gly-Arg-Arg-Arg-Arg-Gly-Ala-Ile-Ser(P)-Ala-Glu-Val-Tyr-Thr-Glu-Glu-Asp-Ala-Ala-Ser-Tyr-Val-Arg-Lys-Val-Ile-Pro-Lys-Asp-Tyr-Lys-Thr-. As described previously (Geahlen, R. L., and Krebs, E. G. (1980) J. Biol. Chem. 255, 1164-1169), this site is specific for cGMP-dependent protein kinase and is not phosphorylated by the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase.
