The kinetics of the interaction of the DNA double-helix-destabilizing protein from roe-deer liver with different DNAs revealed a fast phase which is observed both by the increase in A260 of the DNA and the quenching of the protein intrinsic fluorescence. A slow phase with a smaller amplitude is only recorded by the increase of A260.--The protein contains slightly less than two phosphate groups per molecule, removal of one of which by alkaline phosphatase does not affect its activity; however, removal of both phosphates decreases the DNA-unwinding property significantly. A similar decrease in activity is also revealed upon incorporation of an additional phosphate by cAMP-dependent protein kinase I.--Results of the protection of poly[d(A--T)] from DNase I digestion by the protein are in favor of a migration of the protein along the DNA.

The synthetic phosphohexapeptides Arg-Arg-Ala-Thr(35P)-Val-Ala and Arg-Arg-Ala-Ser(32P)-Val-Ala, phosphorylated by the cAMP-dependent protein kinase and differing only in the nature of the phosphorylated residue, have been used as substrates of a partially purified rat liver protein phosphatase-T, distinct from the multifunctional protein phosphatase-1. While the phosphothreonyl hexapeptide is readily dephosphorylated (exhibiting a Km = 15 microM), the phosphoseryl one is almost unaffected. Such a behavior is not shared by protein phosphatase-1, calf intestine alkaline phosphatase, and potato acid phosphatase, all of which are more active on the phosphoseryl hexapeptide. The NH2-terminal basic residues critical for cAMP-dependent phosphorylation are not required in the dephosphorylation reaction, as both Arg can be removed without impairing the efficiency of protein phosphatase-T toward the phosphothreonyl peptide. On the other hand, the replacement of 2 Pro for the Ala and Val flanking Thr(32P), to give a new phosphohexapeptide reproducing the phosphorylated site of protein phosphatase inhibitor-1, prevents the protein phosphatase-T activity. Moreover, IgG heavy chain 32P labeled in tyrosine is not affected by protein phosphatase-T, while it is dephosphorylated by alkaline phosphatase. These results would indicate that protein phosphatase(s)-T represent a distinct class of protein phosphatases specifically involved in the dephosphorylation of phosphothreonyl residues fulfilling definite structural requirements.

In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, trehalase activity in crude extracts obtained from wild type cells was activated about 3-fold by preincubation with cAMP and ATP. The inactive trehalase fractionated by DEAE-Sephacel chromatography was activated by the addition of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase fraction from wild type cells in the presence of cAMP and ATP. Using the crude extract obtained from bcy1 mutant cells which were deficient in the regulatory subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase, the stimulation of trehalase activity was observed in the absence of cAMP. The cAMP-dependent protein kinase of CYR3 mutant cells which had a high Ka value for cAMP in the phosphorylation reaction required a high cAMP concentration for activation of trehalase. Increased activation of partially purified inactive trehalase (Mr = 320,000) was observed to correlate with increased phosphorylation of a protein (Mr = 80,000) identified by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The assay results using various mutants altered in cAMP metabolism indicated that the activation and phosphorylation of inactive trehalase fractions depended on the cAMP concentration accumulated in mutant cells. Inactivation and dephosphorylation of active trehalase fractions were observed by treatment with alkaline phosphatase or crude cell extracts. The results indicated that the conversion of inactive form of trehalase to the active form is regulated by cAMP through cAMP-dependent protein kinase.

The active NAD-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase of wild type yeast cells fractionated by DEAE-Sephacel chromatography was inactivated in vitro by the addition of either the cAMP-dependent or cAMP-independent protein kinases obtained from wild type cells. cAMP-dependent inhibition of glutamate dehydrogenase activity was not observed in the crude extract of bcy1 mutant cells which were deficient in the regulatory subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase. The cAMP-dependent protein kinase of CYR3 mutant cells, which has a high K alpha value for cAMP in the phosphorylation reaction, required a high cAMP concentration for the inactivation of NAD-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase. An increased inactivation of partially purified active NAD-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase (Mr = 450,000) was observed to correlate with increased phosphorylation of a protein subunit (Mr = 100,000) of glutamate dehydrogenase. The phosphorylated protein was labeled by an NADH analog, 5'-p-fluorosulfonyl[14C]benzoyladenosine. Activation and dephosphorylation of inactive NAD-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase fractions were observed in vitro by treatment with bovine alkaline phosphatase or crude yeast cell extracts. These results suggested that the conversion of the active form of NAD-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase to an inactive form is regulated by phosphorylation through cAMP-dependent and cAMP-independent protein kinases.

Purified proteoglycan subunits from human articular, bovine articular and nasal cartilages, and a rat chondrosarcoma were phosphorylated in vitro by beef heart cAMP-dependent protein kinase in the presence of gamma 32P-ATP. In these experiments, a maximum of 1.7 moles of 32P were incorporated per mole of proteoglycan from human cartilage. Phosphorylation was dependent on the presence of cAMP. Analysis by autoradiography revealed that serine residues in the core protein of the proteoglycan were the sites of phosphorylation. Treatment of proteoglycan subunits with chondroitinase ABC and alkaline phosphatase prior to reaction with cAMP-dependent protein kinase increased the incorporation of 32P by 12-30% when compared with untreated proteoglycans. These data indicate that proteoglycans in cartilage can be phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase.

Both spermidine and spermine are acetylated in chicken brain and retina. From spermidine, more N1-acetylspermidine than N8-acetylspermidine is formed by both the brain and the retinal cytosol. Km for spermidine is similar with the enzyme preparation of the two tissues, but that for spermine is lower with the retinal preparation. Both tissues contain an activity able to reduce spermidine acetyltransferase activity. Both alkaline phosphatase and cAMP-dependent protein kinase (catalytic subunit) are able to inactivate the spermidine acetyltransferase activity of both tissues. Spermidine acetyltransferase activity and polyamine levels have been measured in both brain and retina during embryonic life. Only in the last part of the development can enzyme activity be correlated with the retina spermidine and spermine concentration.

Spermidine acetyltransferase activity is more than 10-fold higher in the pancreas of a 20-hr-fasted than in that of a fed chicken. The preparation of the fed bird inactivates the other. The effect is due to a thermolabile component of microsomes, and is also obtained with alkaline phosphatase. The inactivated preparation partially recovers its activity through phosphorylation catalyzed by a cAMP-dependent protein kinase. The results presented strongly suggest that spermidine acetyltransferase activity is regulated by phosphorylation and dephosphorylation.

Certain metabolic properties of hormonally responsive osteogenic sarcoma cells derived from a transplantable rat tumor have been compared with those of related normal rat bone cells. All studies were carried out on cells grown in monolayer culture. Normal rat bone cells derived by repeated collagenase/trypsin digestion of newborn rat calvaria. Bone cells selected for comparison were thought to be osteoblast-like, as judged by enrichment of alkaline phosphatase and adenylate cyclase responsiveness to parathyroid hormone and prostaglandin E2. The adenylate cyclases of the two cell strains were similarly stimulated by a range of prostanoids and their metabolites and analogs. Morphology showed the two cell strains to be similar; the only obvious difference was a multilayering of cells in the sarcoma cultures, while the normal cultures showed abundant extracellular fibril formation which was not seen in the tumor cells. Investigation of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase isoenzymes showed the presence of two forms in both cell types, one eluting at a low salt concentration and the other at a high salt concentration. There was approximately twice the amount of the first isoenzyme compared to the second isoenzyme. The results indicate the usefulness of the two cell strains to elucidate further the molecular mechanisms of action of parathyroid hormone and prostaglandins.

Four lines of evidence presented here suggest that the activity of cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase in rat liver is modulated by changes in its phosphorylation state. 1) Livers were homogenized and microsomes were isolated and washed in the presence of either 50 mM NaCl or 50 mM NaF, the latter an inhibitor of phosphoprotein phosphatases. The 7 alpha-hydroxylase activity of microsomes prepared with NaF was 80% greater than that of microsomes prepared with NaCl. 2) Incubation of 10,000 X g supernatants from rat liver for 20 min at 37 degrees C in the absence of 50 mM KF decreased the activity of microsomal cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase by 52%. No significant change was seen in the presence of KF. 3) 7 alpha-Hydroxylase activity fell by 40% when microsomes were incubated with bacterial alkaline phosphatase compared to incubation of microsomes with phosphatase that was inhibited by phosphate and EDTA. 4) 7 alpha-Hydroxylase activity increased by 22% when phosphatase-treated microsomes were incubated for 40 min at 37 degrees C with 1 mM MgATP, 50 microM cAMP, and 200 units of cAMP-dependent protein kinase.

1. To clarify the nature of the inhibition of whole-cell inwardly rectifying K+ current (IK1) by isoprenaline (Iso) and its antagonism by acetylcholine (ACh), we studied the effects of Iso and ACh and their surrogates on single channel currents (iK1) carried by inwardly rectifying K+ channels in cell-attached and excised inside-out patches obtained from guinea-pig ventricular myocytes. 2. Bath application of Iso suppressed iK1 channel activity in cell-attached patches. This was inhibited by propranolol. Bath-applied forskolin or dibutyryl cAMP mimicked the effect of bath-applied Iso. 3. Exposure of the cytosolic face of inside-out patches to purified catalytic subunit of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) also suppressed iK1 channel activity, mimicking the effect of bath-applied Iso on iK1 recorded from cell-attached patches. 4. When applied directly to cell-attached patches via the patch pipette solution, ACh antagonized Iso-induced (1 microM applied via the bath) suppression of iK1 channels. In contrast, bath-applied ACh (10 microM) partially antagonized the effect of low concentrations of Iso (e.g. < 50 nM) on iK1 channels in cell-attached patches but had no detectable effect when 1 microM or more Iso was used. 5. In myocytes pretreated with pertussis toxin (PTX), ACh failed to antagonize Iso-induced suppression of iK1 channels. When inside-out patches were used, bath-applied preactivated exogenous inhibitory G protein subunit, G1 alpha, antagonized the suppression of iK1 channels induced by bath-applied catalytic subunit of PKA (PKA-CS), suggesting that a PTX-sensitive G1 alpha mediates ACh-induced antagonism of Iso-induced suppression of iK1. 6. Neither GTP gamma S nor G1 alpha antagonized the suppression of iK1 produced by bath-applied PKA-CS in inside-out patches when okadaic acid was present in the bath. In addition, bath application of alkaline phosphatase also reactivated iK1 channels suppressed by PKA-CS. 7. Findings in guinea-pig ventricular myocytes suggest that iK1 can be suppressed by a PKA-mediated phosphorylation of the iK1 channel occurring in response to Iso-induced beta-adrenergic receptor activation and that ACh can antagonize the suppression by mechanisms that involve both intracellular and membrane-delimited pathways. The membrane-delimited pathway appears to involve M2-cholinergic receptors, their associated G protein, G1, and a protein phosphatase, all located in the sarcolemma in close proximity to the involved iK1 channels.
