A number of protein modification activities are present in the protein-synthesizing complex isolated from rabbit reticulocytes. These enzymes are solubilized by sedimentation of the ribosomes through buffered sucrose containing 0.5 M KCl, and have been partially purified from the high salt wash fraction by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose and phosphocellulose. The ribosomal-associated enzymatic activities include cyclic AMP-regulated and cyclic nucloetide-independent protein kinase, phosphoprotein phosphatase, and acetyltransferase activities. These enzymatic activities have been shown to modify specific ribosomal and ribosomal-associated proteins. The cycli c AMP-regulated protein kinase phosphorylate the 40 S ribosomal subunit from rabbit reticulocytes. One of the cyclic nucleotide-independent protein kinase catalyzes the phosphorylation of two different factors involved in the initiation of hemoglobin synthesis. A single phosphoprotein phosphatase activity is shown to remove phosphate from 40 S ribosomal subunits. The major acetyltransferase activity associated with ribosomes acetylates a 60 S ribosomal protein.

Both the microvillus and basal-lateral membrane components of intestinal epithelial cells were found to contain endogenous cyclic nucleotide-dependent protein kinases and their endogenous protein substrates. The phosphorylation of either membrane component using [gamma-32P]ATP as substrate, occurred very rapidly, reaching maximal levels at 1 min. Both cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP were shown to stimulate the phosphorylation of the microvillus and basal-lateral membranes; the approximate concentrations of cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP required for half-maximal stimulation of phosphorylation were 2 x 10(-7) M and 1.7 x 10(-8) M, respectively, for the basal-lateral membranes, and 2 x 10(-7) M and 3.2 x 10(-8) M, respectively, for the microvillus membranes. Although both membrane components were phosphorylated by an endogenous protein kinase, the microvillus membrane was consistently phosphorylated to a greater extent at maximally effective concentrations of either cyclic nucleotide. The microvillus and basal-lateral membranes were also found to contain a phosphoprotein phosphatase; however, the rate of removal of [32P]phosphate from the microvillus membrane was found to be more rapid. Neither cyclic AMP nor cyclic GMP altered the activity of the enzyme in either membrane. The present results together with earlier studies are compatible with the possibility that the regulation of water and electrolyte transport in the small intestine by cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP may be mediated through modulation of the phosphorylation of protein components of the microvillus and basal-lateral membranes.

Partially purified rabbit skeletal muscle phosphorylase phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.17; phosphoprotein phosphohydrolase) was inactivated when it was incubated with exogenous cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (EC 2.7.1.37; ATP:protein phosphotransferase), cyclic AMP, and ATP-Mg. Subsequent separation of the phosphatase by acrylamide gel electrophoresis or sucrose density centrifugation resulted in reactivation of the enzyme. The phosphatase decreased in molecular weight from approximately 70,000 to 52,000, and a phosphorylated inhibitor with molecular weight of 26,000 was found. Reactivation of phosphatase also occurred when it was incubated with MnCl2 or trypsin. The inhibitor was effective at less than 10(-8) M and was relatively heat stable. Its activity was destroyed by tryptic digestion and by dephosphorylation by a Mn-stimulated phosphatase. These observations support the possibility that phosphorylase phosphatase activity is controlled by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase and a Mn-stimulated phosphatase by a reaction involving phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of a protein phosphatase inhibitor.

Catecholamine-sensitive adenylate cyclase, cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase, adenosine 3', 5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP)-dependent protein kinase, kinase substrate, and phosphoprotein phosphatase have variously been reported to be present in preparations of myocardial cellular membranes that function in the movement of Ca2+ in and out of the cell and in intracellular Ca2+ translocations, indicating that these membranees possess the equipment for the formation and destruction of cyclic Amp as well as for the initiation, effectuation, and termination of a possible membrane action of the nucleotide. It has also been observed that phosphorylation of seryl residues of protein in sarcolemma- and sarcotubule-rich myocardial subcellular fractions by cyclic AMP activated intrinsic and extrinsic protein kinases confers upon these membran structures an enhanced ability to bind or take up Ca2+ and that dibutyryl cyclic AMP, like adrenaline, produces in intact cardiac muscle simultaneous increases in contractile force and in the uptake of extracellular Ca2+. These findings are suggestive of a second messenger role of cyclic AMP in the beta-adrenoreceptor-mediated actions of catecholamines on myocardial contractile force and relaxation, in which Ca2+ would serve as a third messenger and be subject, respectively, to more effective removal from its binding sites on troponin. An alternative interpretation regards Ca2+ and cyclic AMP as interdependent twin second messengers in the catecholamine-induced inotropism. Since the physiological meaning of the reported effects of cyclic AMP on isolated myocardial membrane preparations is far from established an instances of a dissociation between the effects of catecholamines on myocardial contractile force and cyclic AMP levels have been observed, there is still room for hypotheses that relegate cyclic AMP to a nonobligatory, at most, supportive role in the action of the catecholamines on cardiac contraction.

The present study demonstrated the presence within the myocardium of phosphoprotein phosphatase activity which can account for dephosphorylation of a 22,000 dalton phosphoprotein of cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum that has been associated with the stimulatory effects of adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP)-dependent protein kinase on calcium transport (Tada, M., Kirchberger, M. A., and Katz, A. M. (1975) J. Biol. Chem. 250:2640-2647). Dog cardiac microsomes, consisting mainly of fragmented sarcomplasmic reticulum, were phosphorylated by incubation with cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase and [gamma-32P]ATP, and subsequently washed with trichloroacetic acid or buffered KCl. Phosphorylated microsomes contained approximately 1 nmole of 32P bound per mg of microsomal protein, 32P labeling occurring almost exclusively at the 22,000 dalton component. Soluble phosphoprotein phosphatases, isolated from the cytosol, catalyzed dephosphorylation of 32P-labeled microsomes. The existence of a phosphoprotein phosphatase that is associated with the microsomes was demonstrated by the ability of the microsomes to dephosphorylate 32P-histone. This membrane-associated phosphatase activity can also account for a rapid decrease in the amount of 32P-labeling of the 22,000 dalton protein. The dephosphorylation of the phosphorylated 22,000 dalton protein by phosphoprotein phosphatase satisfies an important requirement for the phosphorylation of the 22,000 dalton protein to serve a physiological role, namely, its reversibility.

1. Various proteins isolated from bovine tracheal smooth muscle were examined as phosphate acceptor substrates for a cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase isolated from the same tissue. A fraction prepared in a manner similar to that of skeletal muscle troponin was the best substrate of the presumptive contractile proteins isolate. Actomyosin and tropomyosin were relatively poor substrates. 2. An assay was developed for the rapid detection in a large number of samples of the muscle specific substrate for the protein kinase on which we reported previously. 3. Using this assay, the muscle specific substrate found in bovine tracheal smooth muscle was partially purified resulting in a preparation which when resolved by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed a single peak of 32P incorporated, and which could be further characterized. 4. Our findings suggest that the substrate contains a protein subunit of molecular weight 19 000, which can be phosphorylated at serine and threonine residues, in the presence of cyclic AMP and protein kinase. The phosphate is in a covalent ester linkage with these residues. 5. A phosphoprotein phosphatase was isolated from the bovine tracheal smooth muscle. 6. Bovine tracheal smooth muscle contains cyclic AMP dependent protein kinase and phosphoprotein phospahatase activity as well as the muscle specific substrate, suggesting that these elements may be part of a mechanism which regulates smooth muscle tone.

Suspensions of renal cortical tubules were incubated with 33Pi and exposed to parathyroid hormone (40 mlg/ml) or 1 mM dibutyryl cyclic AMP. In other experiments homogenates of renal cortex were assayed for protein kinase and phosphoprotein phosphatase activity using [gamma-32P]ATP with or without 5 mM cyclic AMP. Proteins were separated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and phosphorylation of proteins measured by liquid scintillation counting of gel slices. The pattern of protein phosphorylation was similar in control tissue from both tubule suspensions and homogenates. In intact tubules, parathyroid hormone stimulated the phosphorylation of four proteins with molecular weights of approx. 150 000, 125 000, 100 000 and 50 000 by 28%, 24%, 13%, and 20%, respectively. Results with dibutyryl cyclic AMP were comparable but more variable. Stimulation of phosphorylation by cyclic AMP in homogenates was more generalized with the major effect on a 50 000 dalton protein (50% stimulation). No effect of cyclic AMP on dephosphorylation of proteins was observed. The results are interpreted as indicating that increased phosphorylation of cell proteins is part of the cyclic AMP-mediated response of the renal cortex to parathyroid hormone.

Two heat-stable and trypsin-labile inhibitors of phosphorylase phosphatase, designated inhibitor-1 and inhibitor-2, were partially purified from extracts of rabbit skeletal muscle by heating and coloumn chromatography using DEAE-dellulose and Bio-gel P-60. Inhibitor-1 exists in an active phosphorylated form and an inactive dephosphorylated form. The interconversion of phosphorylated inhibitor-1 and dephosphorylated inhibitor-1 is mediated by protein kinase dependent on adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP) and a Mn2+-stimulated phosphoprotein phosphatase. Inhibitory activity of inhibitor-2 is not influenced by treatment with either the kinase or the Mn2+-stimulated phosphatase. The molecular weights of inhibitor-1 and inhibitor-2 estimated by sodium dodecylsulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis are 26000 and 33000 respectively. Both inhibitor-1 and inhibitor-2 inhibit phosphorylase phosphatase by a mechanism which appears to be non-competitive with respect to the substrate phosphorylase a. Inhibitor fractions at early stages of purification also inhibit cyclic-AMP-dependent histone phosphorylation, but this kinase inhibitory activity resides with a protein moiety which is separable from inhibitor-1 and inhibitor-2.

The D to I conversion of glycogen synthase from human polymorphonuclear leukocytes was examined both in a gel-filtered homogenate and in a preparation of glycogen particles with adhering enzymes, purified by chromatography on concanavalin A bound to Sepharose. It was found that glucose 6-phosphate as well as mannose 6-phosphate, glucosamine 6-phosphate, and 2-deoxy-glucose 6-phosphate activated the reaction, whereas the corresponding sugars were without effect. Mn2+ and Ca2+ increased the conversion rate by 51% and 27%, respectively, whereas Mg2+ and inorganic phosphate were without effect. Sodium fluoride inhibited the reaction completely. Glycogen inhibited the reaction in physiological concentrations and 0.5 mM glucose 6-phosphate was able to overcome this inhibition. MgATP greatly augmented the inhibition caused by glycogen in the glycogen particle preparation. This combined effect could be overcome by glucose 6-phosphate in concentrations from 0.1 to 1 mM. Phosphorylase alpha purified from human polymorphonuclear leukocytes inhibited the D to I conversion in a glycogen particle preparation. The inhibition was counteracted by glucose 6-phosphate and to a lesser degree by AMP. Phosphorylase beta was also inhibitory, but only at higher concentrations than phosphorylase alpha. No phosphorylase phosphatase activity was found in the glycogen particle preparation, which may indicate that chromatography on concanavalin A-Sepharose separates this enzyme from the synthase phosphatase or partially destroys the activity of a hypothetical common protein phosphatase.

A procedure for the purification of cholesterol ester hydrolase from bovine adrenal cortical 105000 x g supernatant is described. Preincubation of a crude enzyme extract with [gamma-32P]ATP followed by purification resulted in the isolation of a phosphorylated preparation of cholesterol ester hydrolase. The phosphorylated cholesterol ester hydrolase appeared to be composed of 4 subunits, each having a molecular weight of 41000 +/- 280, only one of which may be phosphorylated. Preincubation of the crude enzyme preparation with [alpha-32P]ATP followed by purification did not produce a phosphorylated preparation of cholesterol ester hydrolase. Cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase, cyclic AMP, ATP and magnesium ions were required for activation of purified cholesterol ester hydrolase in vitro and the time course of activation closely paralleled the time course of phosphorylation of the enzyme. The addition of ATP, cyclic AMP and magnesium ions to the bovine adrenal cortical 105000 x g supernatant produced a 2.5-fold stimulation in cholesterol ester hydrolase activity. This stimulation was abolished if protein kinase inhibitor was added prior to the addition of ATP cyclic AMP and magensium ions. The addition of magnesium ions or calcium ions to a crude preparation of cholesterol ester hydrolase was found to inhibit activity; however the same additions made to a purified preparation of cholesterol ester hydrolase were not inhibitory. The decrease in cholesterol ester hydrolase activity on incubation with magnesium ion was accompanied by a loss of 32P radioactivity from the protein. Preincubation of a crude preparation of cholesterol ester hydrolase with alkaline phosphatase resulted in a deactivation of cholesterol ester hydrolase. It is suggested that bovine adrenal cortex cholesterol ester hydrolase is activated by a phosphorylation catalysed by a cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase. Deactivation of cholesterol ester hydrolase is accomplished by dephosphorylation catalysed by a phosphoprotein phosphatase, dependent on magnesium or calcium ions.
