Adenine- and uridine di- and triphosphates (in a 3 mM concentration) increase considerably phosphoprotein phosphatase (PPPase) (EC 3.1.3.16) activity of rat and chicken myocardium homogenates. AMP and Pi are effective inhibitors of the enzyme. The ATP activating effect is also shown in partially purified preparations of rat myocardium PPPase. ATP is able of protecting significantly the enzyme during its thermodenaturation.

1. Calcium transport into microsomal vesicles of respiratory (tracheal) smooth muscle was characterized. This calcium transport was ATP dependent and stimulated by the presence of the oxalate ion. The magnitude of transport was similar to that reported for microsomes from other types of smooth muscle. 2. Bovine and rabbit, heavy and light microsomes were isolated from respiratory (tracheal) and vascular (aortic) smooth muscle. Preincubation of these vesicles with cyclic AMP and protein kinase did not alter the transport of calcium into the vesicles. There uas no evidence of phosphate incorporation into microsomal membrane proteins. Similar results were obtained if phosphorylase b kinase replaced the combination of cyclic AMP and protein kinase during the preincubation. 3. The phosphoprotein phosphatase activity of cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum and smooth muscle microsomes was determined. The activity of this enzyme was found to be several-fold less in the cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum than in various smooth muscle microsome preparations.

The effects of streptozotocin-induced diabetes and of insulin supplementation to diabetic rats on glycogen-metabolizing enzymes in liver were determined. The results were compared with those from control animals. The activities of glycogenolytic enzymes, i.e. phosphorylase (both a and b), phosphorylase kinase and protein kinase (in the presence or in the absence of cyclic AMP), were significantly decreased in the diabetic animals. The enzyme activities were restored to control values by insulin therapy. Glycogen synthase (I-form) activity, similarly decreased in the diabetic animals, was also restored to control values after the administration of insulin. The increase in glycogen synthase(I-form) activity after insulin treatment was associated with a concomitant increase in phosphoprotein phosphatase activity. The increase in phosphatase activity was due to (i) a change in the activity of the enzyme itself and (ii) a decrease in a heat stable protein inhibitor of the phosphatase activity.

Phosphoprotein phosphatase (phosphoprotein phosphohydrolase, EC 3.1.3.16) from bovine tracheal smooth muscle extracts was isolated and its activity determined using two [32P]phosphorylated proteins as substrates, i.e. phosphorylated histone (H-P) and a phosphorylated muscle specific substrate protein (MS-P) for the tracheal smooth muscle protein kinase. The enzyme was purified by the use of DEAE-cellulose followed by a two stage chromatography on a histone-Sepharose affinity column. Elution from the affinity column resolved the phosphoprotein phosphatase into four activity fractions. While fractions expressed phosphatase activity against both tested substrates the relative amounts of either activity varied. The ratio of activity towards H-P to activity towards MS-P changed from 11.5 to 0.12. The characterization of four phosphoprotein phosphatase fractions was based on the differences found in the following parameters: substrate specificity; sensitivity to NaF; influences of nucleotides (ATP, 5'-AMP, cyclic AMP, cyclic GMP) and the requirement of Mn2+ for maximal activity. Mg2+, Ba2+ or Ca2+ could not substitute for Mn2+.

Calcium transport by cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) was compared in hyperthyroid (HT) and euthyroid (ET) rats. Both Ca2+ uptake (97 +/- 3.1 nmol/mg per min in HT vs. 63 +/- 2.9 nmol/mg per min in ET, P less than 0.01) and CA2+ -stimulated ATPase activity (61 +/- 4.1 vs. 37 +/- 1.6 nmol Pi/mg per min, P less than 0.01) were higher in the thyroxine-treated animals. These changes were accompanied by enhanced cyclic AMP-dependent phosphorylation of cardiac SR in hyperthyroid rats (180 +/- 4.3 pmol Pi/mg per min vs. 117 +/- 4.2 pmol Pi/mg per min, P less than 0.01). SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of cardiac SR showed that phosphorylation of a 22,000-dalton protein (phospholamban) primarily accounted for the differences between the two groups. There was no difference in the rate of SR dephosphorylation by endogenous phosphoprotein phosphatase between HT and ET rats. Differences in cyclic AMP-dependent phosphorylation between the two groups were blunted in the presence of excess exogenous cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. These results suggest that increased levels or activity of endogenous cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinases may partially explain enhanced calcium transport by the cardiac SR of hyperthyroid animals.

The role of adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP)-dependent membrane phosphorylation in the regulation of microsomal calcium transport in rat aortic smooth muscle was studied. Cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase augmented the phosphorylation of serine residues in a microsomal protein component with a molecular weight of about 44,000 (determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis) and the majority of 32P incorporation was in serine residue(s). The phosphorylated protein had stability characteristics of a phosphoester. The phosphorylated substrate was not extracted from the trichloroacetic acid (TCA) precipitate with organic solvents or by suspension in hot TCA; and the demonstrated hydroxylamine insensitivity suggested that the substrate was not lipid or nucleic acid. Intrinsic phosphoprotein phosphatase cleaved the labeled phosphate from the cyclic AMP-stimulated microsomes in the first 5 min of incubation. Microsomes phosphorylated in the presence of 1 micron cyclic AMP or 1 micron cyclic AMP plus 0.1 mg/ml protein kinase exhibited enhanced calcium uptake. We suggest that reversible phosphorylation of microsomal membranes may play an important role in the regulation of aortic microsomal calcium transport by cyclic AMP.

Inhibitor-1 from rabbit skeletal muscle was phosphorylated by protein kinase dependent on adenosine 3' :5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP), but not by phosphorylase kinase or by glycogen synthetase kinase-2. Protein phosphatase-III, isolated and stored in the presence of manganese ions to keep it stable, was in a form which catalysed a rapid dephosphorylation and inactivation of inhibitor-1. The kinetic constants for the dephosphorylation of inhibitor-1 [Km = 0.7 micron, V(rel) = 40] were comparable to those for the dephosphorylation of phosphorylase kinase [Km =1.1 micron, V (rel) = 62] and phosphorylase [Km = 5.0 micron, V (rel) = 100]. The dephosphorylation of inhibitor -1 was inhibited by inhibitor-2, indicating that it was catalysed by protein phosphatase-III, and not by another enzyme that might be contaminating the preparation. When protein phosphatase-III was diluted into buffers containing excess EDTA, it lost activity initially, but after 90 min, the activity reached a plateau that remained stable for at least 20h. The initial loss in activity varied with the substrate that was tested; it was 20-30% with phosphorylase a, 50-60% with phosphorylase kinase and greater than or equal to 95% with inhibitor-1. This form of protein phosphatase-III was inhibited by inhibitor-1 in a noncompetitive manner, and the Ki for inhibitor-1 was 1.6 +/- 0.3 nM. The phosphorylase phosphatase, phosphorylase kinase phosphatase and glycogen synthetase phosphatase activities of protein phosphatase-III were inhibited in an identical manner by inhibitor-1. This result emphasizes the potential importance of inhibitor-1 in the regulation of glycogen metabolism, since it can influence the state of phosphorylation of three different enzymes. The formation of the inactive complex between inhibitor-1 and protein phosphatase-III was reversed by incubation with trypsin (which destroyed inhibitor-1, but not protein phosphatase-III) or by dilution of the inactive complex. Kinetic studies, using the form of protein phosphatase-III which dephosphorylated inhibitor-1 very rapidly, demonstrated three unusual features of the system: (a) inhibitor-1 was still as powerful and inhibitor of the dephosphorylation of phosphorylase a and phosphorylase kinase a even under conditions where it was being rapidly dephosphorylated; (b) inhibitor-1 was not an inhibitor of its own dephosphorylation; (c) phosphorylase a did not effect the rate of dephosphorylation of inhibitor-1 even when it was present in a 50-fold molar excess over inhibitor-1. The result of these three properties is that inhibitor-1 is preferentially dephosphorylated by protein phosphatase-III even in the presence of a large excess of other phosphoprotein substrates. Inhibitor-1 was also dephosphorylated by protein phosphatase-II. The kinetic constants for the dephosphorylation of inhibitor-1 [Km = 2.8 micron, V (rel) = 200] and the alpha-subunit of phosphorylase kinase [Km = 3.7 micron, V (rel) = 100]were comparable...

The effects of ATP and divalent cations on a divalent cation-independent phosphorylase phosphatase of Mr = 35,000 (phosphatase S) purified from canine cardiac muscle have been studied. The enzyme can be rapidly inactivated by ATP or other nucleoside di- and triphosphates and PPi, but not by AMP, adenosine, adenine, Pi, EDTA, ethylene glycol bis(beta-aminoethyl ether)N,N' -tetraacetic acid, 1,10-phenanthroline, or 8-hydroxyquinoline. After removing the inactivating agent, such as ATP or PPi, by gel filtraiton followed by exhaustive dialysis, the inactivated enzyme (apophosphatase S) can be reactivated by preincubating with Mn2+ or Co2+, but not with Mg2+, Ca2+, Ni2+, Zn2+, Fe2+, Cu2+, Ba2+, Hg2+, Pb2+, or Cd2+. The Mn2+ -reactivated enzyme, which is less active than the Co2+ -reactivated enzyme, can be again inactivated by preincubating with ATP. The present findings indicate that phosphatase S contains a tightly bound divalent cation, probably Mn2+, in the active site. ATP and PPi, due to their structural similarity to the phosphoprotein substrate and their ability to chelate metal ions, can readily enter the active site to remove the divalent cation(s) essential for the catalytic function. The present findings also indicate that phosphatase S, a common catalytic subunit of several larger molecular forms of nospecific phosphoprotein phosphatase in cardiac muscle, can exist in two interconvertible forms, a metallized form (active) and a demetallized form (inactive). ATP and metal ions may regulate this class of isozymes by mediating the interconversions.

We previously showed that preincubation of a 10,000 g supernatant (S(10)) from rat liver for 20 min at 37 degrees C dramatically increased the subsequent incorporation of [(14)C]acetate into sterols. No activation was seen with [(14)C]mevalonate as substrate. In the present studies we have examined the effect of preincubation on HMG CoA reductase. When microsomes were isolated from S(10) by calcium precipitation, preincubation of S(10) increased the specific activity of HMG CoA reductase threefold. No activation of HMG CoA reductase was observed in microsomes isolated by ultracentrifugation. Activation was cyclic AMP-sensitive. When cyclic AMP (0.001-1.0 mM) and MgATP (1 mM) were present during the preincubation period, there was little or no activation of HMG CoA reductase activity or of sterol synthesis from acetate. MgATP alone did not prevent activation. Neither cyclic AMP nor MgATP was inhibitory when present only during the assay of sterol synthesis. We propose that the in vitro activation represents the reversal of a physiologic cyclic AMP-mediated mechanism for the control of hepatic HMG CoA reductase. That a phosphoprotein phosphatase may catalyze the activation was supported by the observation that sodium fluoride, an inhibitor of phosphoprotein phosphatases, inhibited the activation. These results suggest that hormone-induced changes in the cellular level of cyclic AMP may regulate the activity of HMG CoA reductase and the rate of hepatic cholesterol synthesis.

In summary, we have presented evidence which relates to the action pathway of hormonal control of glycogen metabolism. In the case of insulin, there are changes demonstrable in the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase and also in the phosphoprotein phosphatase, under conditions where no direct relationship to either cyclic AMP or cyclic GMP levels are measurable. Therefore, a new unknown intermediate or second messenger system is again proposed. An insulin-generated labile compound(s) which inhibits the protein kinase has been discovered. This may function as an intermediate. Finally, the fact that the glycogen synthase system clearly differs from phosphorylase in its regulation by covalent phosphorylation is discussed. Synthase is now accepted as a multiply phosphorylated subunit, in contrast to phosphorylase which is singly phosphorylated. The inherent theoretical advantages of multiple phosphorylation over single phosphorylation are considered. The advantages of a multistate over a two-state model of enzyme interconversion are mentioned. The importance of the multiple phosphorylations interacting in a nonlinear manner with the control by cellular metabolites is in the explanation of how a small change in covalent phosphorylation signalled by a hormone can be translated in the cell milieu into a much larger change in rate.
