Protein kinase C was detected in a group of Ca2+-dependent chromaffin granule membrane-binding proteins (chromobindins) on the basis of Ca2+-, phosphatidylserine-, 1,2-diolein-, and phorbol myristate acetate-stimulated histone kinase activity. When the chromobindins were incubated with [gamma-32P]ATP, Ca2+, and phosphatidylserine, 32P was incorporated predominantly into a protein of mass 37 +/- 1 kilodaltons (chromobindin 9, or CB9). Phosphorylation of this protein was also stimulated by diolein and phorbol myristate acetate, indicating that it is a substrate for the protein kinase C activity present in the chromobindins. Maximum phosphate incorporation into CB9 in the presence of 1 mM Ca2+, 75 micrograms/ml of phosphatidylserine, 2.5 micrograms/ml of diolein, and 12.5 micrograms/ml of dithiothreitol was 0.53 mol/mol of CB9 in 5 min. Eight 32P-labeled phosphopeptides were resolved in two-dimensional electrophoretic maps of trypsin digests of CB9. Phosphoamino acid analysis revealed that phosphorylation was exclusively on serine (94%) and threonine (6%) residues. Incubation of the chromobindins with chromaffin granule membranes in the presence of [gamma-32P]ATP resulted in the incorporation of 32P into eight additional proteins besides CB9 that could be separated from the membranes by centrifugation in the presence of ethylene glycol bis(beta-aminoethyl ether)-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid. We suggest that phosphorylation of CB9 or these additional eight proteins may regulate events underlying exocytosis in the chromaffin cell.

The Ca2+- and phospholipid-dependent protein kinase C from rat brain phosphorylates rabbit muscle phosphofructokinase at the same trypsin-labile site as cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. However, protein kinase C also effectively phosphorylates one or more separate sites. Incubation of phosphofructokinase in the presence of protein kinase C, phospholipids, Ca2+, and ATP appears to affect the allosteric properties of phosphofructokinase by shifting the fructose 6-phosphate saturation curve to lower substrate concentrations in a time-dependent manner and decreasing cooperativity of the enzyme.

NADPH oxidase was induced in HL-60 human promyelocytic leukemia cells when these cells were treated with 10(-7) M 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (VD3) for 4 days. The treated cells were disrupted by sonication, and the postnuclear fraction was separated into 48,000 X g supernatant (cytosol) and precipitate (membrane) fractions. Membrane-bound NADPH oxidase was activated in vitro with SDS and cytosol. However, the cytosol from untreated HL-60 cells could not activate NADPH oxidase. The cytosolic activity was induced 2 days after VD3 treatment and fully expressed on day 4. The activity was heat-sensitive and destroyed by trypsin. The possibility that the cytosolic activation factor is a protein kinase C (PKC) was then tested. Ca2+- and phospholipid-dependent PKC activity was low in the cytosol of untreated HL-60 cells but increased in the cytosols of VD3-treated cells 4 and 11 times, respectively, 2 days and 4 days after treatment. H-7 [1-(5-isoquinolinesulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine dihydrochloride], inhibited PKC activity in a dose-dependent manner at 1-100 microM. Cytosolic activity of NADPH oxidase was not inhibited at all at those concentrations. Furthermore, PKC activity was lost when Ca2+ was omitted from the assay mixture, but NADPH oxidase was activated in the presence of EGTA. These results indicated that the cytosolic factor is not a PKC, and that NADPH oxidase in this cell-free system is activated by a mechanism that does not involve PKC.

Acridine orange, acridine yellow G, and related compounds potently inhibited protein kinase C (Ca2+/phospholipid-dependent enzyme) activity and phorbol dibutyrate binding. Inhibition was investigated in vitro using Triton X-100 mixed micellar assays (Hannun, Y. A., Loomis, C. R., and Bell, R. M. (1985) J. Biol. Chem. 260, 10039-10043 and Hannun, Y. A., and Bell, R. M. (1986) J. Biol. Chem. 261, 9341-9347). Inhibition by the acridine derivatives was subject to surface dilution; therefore, the relevant concentration unit is mol % rather than the bulk molar concentration. Fifty percent inhibition of protein kinase C activity occurred at concentrations of these compounds comparable to concentrations of sn-1,2-diacylglycerol (DAG) and phosphatidylserine (PS) required for enzyme activation (i.e. 1-6 mol %). The mechanism of inhibition appeared to be complex: both the catalytic and regulatory sites of protein kinase C were affected. Acridine orange was a competitive inhibitor with respect to MgATP when the catalytic fragment of protein kinase C was employed. Inhibition at the active site was overcome by the addition of Triton X-100 micelles or phospholipid vesicles. When the activity of intact protein kinase C was measured, inhibition was noncompetitive with respect to MgATP. Further kinetic analysis suggested a competitive type of inhibition with respect to PS and DAG implying an interaction of acridine compounds with the regulatory lipid cofactors or with the regulatory domain of protein kinase C. This was further supported by demonstrating inhibition of phorbol dibutyrate binding to both protein kinase C and the lipid-binding domain generated by trypsin hydrolysis. Acridine orange and acridine yellow G also inhibited thrombin-induced 40-kDa phosphorylation in human platelets and phorbol dibutyrate binding to platelets. These effects were also subject to surface dilution. These results suggest that acridine derivatives have multiple interactions with protein kinase C with the predominant effect being inhibition of activation within the regulatory domain of the enzyme. Some of the biologic effects of acridine derivatives including anti-tumor action may occur as a consequence of protein kinase C inhibition.

Chemotactic activity for human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNL) was detected in serum-free conditioned media 1 to 4 hr after monolayers of calf pulmonary artery endothelial cells were pretreated with phorbol myristate acetate (PMA). Chemotactic activity was increased in conditioned media following pretreatment with either PMA or the less lipophilic active phorbol ester, 4-beta-phorbol-12,13-dibutyrate (P(Bu)2) in a dose-dependent manner. Chemotactic activity of conditioned media from PMA-treated endothelial cells was confirmed by checkerboard analysis. The chemotactic activity in conditioned media from PMA-pretreated endothelial cells was completely inhibited by pretreating endothelial cells with either cycloheximide, actinomycin D, or the lipooxygenase inhibitor, diethylcarbamazine. Furthermore, the chemotactic activity was heat-stable, inhibited by trypsin treatment, and present in both aqueous and lipid phases after ether extraction. The data demonstrate that pulmonary artery endothelial cells exposed to active phorbol esters release potent chemotactic factor(s) for PMNL. These findings suggest a role for activators of protein kinase C in mediating endothelial cell release of chemotactic factor(s) that may be important in the directed migration of circulating leukocytes to sites of vascular injury.

Ca2+/phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase C) and trypsin-activated protein kinase C (protein kinase M) phosphorylated the synthetic peptide R1-A13 (Arg-Arg-Leu-Ser-Ser-Leu-Arg-Ala-Ser-Thr-Ser-Lys-Ala) which contains both cAMP- and insulin-regulated phosphorylation sites in rat liver ribosomal protein S6 [Wettenhall, R. E. H. & Morgan, F. J. (1984) J. Biol. Chem. 259, 2084-2091]. Both enzymes showed essentially the same kinetic properties; V and apparent Km were determined to be 0.16 mumol min-1 mg-1 and 30 microM, respectively. At first, tryptic phosphopeptides were prepared at the early stage of phosphorylation and purified by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Through these analyses, four radioactive peptides were isolated. When protein kinase C was employed, phosphorylation was observed on all four peptides in a Ca2+/phospholipid-dependent manner. Irrespective of the protein kinase employed, phosphate incorporation into these peptides increased linearly with time; the peptide concentration did not affect the ratio of phosphate distribution into these four peptides. Analysis of amino acid composition and phosphoamino acid of radioactive peptides obtained after extensive phosphorylation showed that phosphates were incorporated into Ser-4, Ser-5, Ser-9 and Ser-11. The latter three serine residues were major phosphorylated sites. When rat liver 40-S ribosomal subunits were employed as substrate for protein kinases C and M, a radioactive protein with Mr,app = 31,000, which corresponded to S6 protein, was detected on an autoradiogram of a sodium dodecyl sulfate/polyacrylamide slab gel. The rate of phosphorylation with protein kinase M was twice as fast as that with protein kinase C. The elution profile of radioactive tryptic peptides in HPLC suggest that phosphorylation occurred on the sites in S6 protein corresponding to Ser-5, Ser-9 and Ser-11 as major sites and Ser-4 as the minor one. These results indicate that protein kinase C has an ability to recognize at least four sites derived from hormone-dependent phosphorylation sites in ribosomal protein S6 irrespective of the mode of activation of this enzyme.

Protein kinase C functions prominently in cell regulation via its pleiotropic role in signal transduction processes. Certain oncogene products resemble elements involved in transmembrane signaling, elevate cellular sn-1,2-diacylglycerol second messenger levels, and activate protein kinase C. Sangivamycin was unique among the nucleoside compounds tested in its ability to potently inhibit protein kinase C activity. Inhibition was competitive with respect to ATP for both protein kinase C and the catalytic fragment of protein kinase C prepared by trypsin digestion. Sangivamycin was a noncompetitive inhibitor with respect to histone and lipid cofactors (phosphatidylserine and diacylglycerol). Sangivamycin inhibited native protein kinase C and the catalytic fragment identically, with apparent Ki values of 11 and 15 microM, respectively. Sangivamycin was an effective an inhibitor of protein kinase C as H-7, an isoquinolinsulfonamide. Sangivamycin did not inhibit [3H]phorbol-12,13-dibutyrate binding to protein kinase C. Sangivamycin did not exert its action through the lipid binding/regulatory domain; inhibition was not affected by the presence of lipid or detergent. Unlike H-7, sangivamycin selectively inhibited protein kinase C compared to cAMP-dependent protein kinase. The discovery that protein kinase C is inhibited by sangivamycin and other antitumor agents suggests that protein kinase C may be a target for rational design of antitumor compounds.

Three forms of 20-kDa myosin light chain (MLC), unphosphorylated, monophosphorylated, and diphosphorylated MLC (designated 20K, 20K-P, and 20K-PP) were demonstrated in thrombin-stimulated human platelets by two different gel electrophoretic methods: in the presence of glycerol urea or in two dimensions (isoelectric and sodium dodecyl sulfate). The diphosphorylation of platelet 20-kDa MLC increased, dose dependently, up to 0.4 U/ml thrombin and reached 25% of platelet 20-kDa MLC. After mono- or diphosphorylated 20-kDa MLC from thrombin-stimulated platelets was digested with trypsin, the analysis using two-dimensional peptide mapping demonstrated that two different sites were phosphorylated by MLC kinase and protein kinase C, as noted in the case of 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate-stimulated platelets (M. Naka, et al. (1983) Nature (London) 306, 490-492). The more rapid monophosphorylation was catalyzed preferentially by MLC kinase while the slower and additional phosphorylation was catalyzed mainly by protein kinase C. These results suggest the importance of distinguishing multiple site phosphorylation of 20-kDa MLC in thrombin-activated human platelets.

We have previously reported that antibodies to phosphotyrosine recognize the phosphorylated forms of platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) and epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptors (Zippel et al., Biochim. Biophys. Acta 881:54-61, 1986, and Sturani et al., Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 137:343-350, 1986). In this report, the time course of receptor phosphorylation is investigated. In normal human fibroblasts, ligand-induced phosphorylation of PDGF and EGF receptors is followed by rapid dephosphorylation. However, in A431 cells the tyrosine-phosphorylated form of EGF receptor persists for many hours after EGF stimulation, allowing a detailed analysis of the conditions affecting receptor phosphorylation and dephosphorylation. In A431 cells, the number of receptor molecules phosphorylated on tyrosine was quantitated and found to be about 10% of total EGF receptors. The phosphorylated receptor molecules are localized on the cell surface, and they are rapidly dephosphorylated upon removal of EGF from binding sites by a short acid wash of intact cells and upon a mild treatment with trypsin. ATP depletion also results in rapid dephosphorylation, indicating that continuous phosphorylation-dephosphorylation reactions occur in the ligand-receptor complex at steady state. Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate added shortly before EGF reduces the rate and the final extent of receptor phosphorylation. Moreover, it also reduces the amount of phosphorylated receptors if it is added after EGF. Down-regulation of protein kinase C by chronic treatment with phorbol dibutyrate increases the receptor phosphorylation induced by EGF, suggesting a homologous feedback regulation of EGF receptor functions.

GnRH stimulates LH release from pituitary cells, and this process is calcium dependent. On the other hand, phorbol ester, 12-0-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA), a potent activator of calcium- and phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase C), stimulates luteinizing hormone (LH) release from rat pituitary cells. To investigate the involvement of the calcium dependent process in LH release by TPA, the effects of calcium channel antagonists, verapamil and nifedipine, on TPA-mediated LH release were compared with those of a GnRH superagonist, [D-Ala6] des-Gly10-GnRH N-ethylamide (GnRHa) in cultured pituitary cells. Furthermore, pituitary cells saturated with 45Ca2+ were stimulated by GnRHa or TPA and calcium mobilization after the stimuli were monitored. The pituitary cells from adult male rats were dispersed by trypsin and cultured for 3 days. Cultured pituitary cells were incubated with GnRHa or TPA in the presence of increasing concentrations of verapamil or nifedipine for 3hrs, and LH released into medium was measured by RIA for rat LH. For 45Ca2+ experiment, 3 day-cultured pituitary cells were saturated with 45Ca2+ (10(6) cells/1 microCi/100 microliters) and incubated with secretagogues for the indicated times. Incubations were terminated by filtration, and the radioactivity on the filter was measured by a beta-counter. LH release was stimulated by 0.1 nM TPA, and the maximum response at 10 nM TPA was 50% of the LH response to GnRHa. A23187 also stimulated LH release in relatively high concentrations (10(-5)-10(-4) M), and no additive stimulatory effect was observed when a half-maximal dose of TPA (10(-9) M) was added with increasing concentrations of A23187. Verapamil partially inhibited both GnRHa- and TPA-stimulated LH release, and a similar inhibitory effect on LH release was observed when nifedipine was incubated with GnRHa or TPA, although high concentrations (10(-5)-10(-4) M) of nifedipine stimulated LH release induced by GnRHa and TPA. GnRHa and TPA stimulated 45Ca2+ influx into the cells, and its peak was observed 15 and 30 seconds after stimulation, respectively, while GnRH antagonist did not mobilize 45Ca2+ until 120 seconds after stimulation. These results suggest that TPA-stimulated LH release from pituitary cells involves a calcium dependent process as does GnRH-stimulated LH release.
