The phosphoprotein phosphatase(s) acting on muscle phosphorylase a was purified from rabbit liver by acid precipitation, high speed centrifugation, chromatography on DEAE-Sephadex A-50, Sephadex G-75, and Sepharose-histone. Enzyme activity was recovered in the final step as two distinct peaks tentatively referred to as phosphoprotein phosphatases I and II. Each phosphatase showed a single broad band when examined by sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis; the molecular weights derived by this method were approximately 30,500 for phosphoprotein phosphatase I and 34,000 for phosphoprotein phosphatase II. The s20, w value for each enzyme was 3.40. Using this value and values for the Stokes radii, the molecular weight for each enzyme was calculated to be 34,500. Both phosphatases, in addition to catalyzing the conversion of phosphorylase a to b, also catalyzed the dephosphorylation of glycogen synthase D, activated phosphorylase kinase, phosphorylated histone, phosphorylated casein, and the phosphorylated inhibitory component of troponin (TN-I). The relative activities of the phosphatases with respect to phosphorylase a, glycogen synthase D, histone, and casein remained essentially constant throughout the purification. The activities of both phosphatases with different substrates decreased in parallel when they were denatured by incubation at 55 degrees and 65 degrees. The Km values of phosphoprotein phosphatase I for phosphorylase a, histone, and casein were lower than the values obtained for phosphoprotein phosphatase II. With glycogen synthase D as substrate, each enzyme gave essentially the same Km value. Utilizing either enzyme, it was found that activity toward a given substrate was inhibited competitively by each of the alternative substrates. The results suggest that phosphoprotein phosphatases I and II are each active toward all of the substrates tested.

Preparations of the "induced protein" which appears in the rat uterus within 40 min of estradiol administration have recently been reported to contain phosphoprotein phosphatase (phosphoprotein phosphohydrolase, EC 3.1.3.16) activity. We found that these two proteins distribute differently on ammonium sulfate fractionation of uterine cytosol. Preparative cellulose acetate electrophoresis afforded complete (greater than 99.9%) separation of phosphoprotein phosphatase activity from the induced protein. The specific activity of phosphoprotein phosphatase in uterine cytosol was unchanged 1, 4, 12, or 24 hr after estradiol administration. These results are incompatible with the view that the induced protein mediates estrogen action by virtue of an inherent phosphoprotein phosphatase activity.

The distribution of phosphoprotein phosphatase (PPPase) and estrogen-induced protein (IP) from 19- to 20-day-old rat uteri before and after fractionation of uterine cytosol, by ammonium sulfate, and by preparative cellulose acetate gel electrophoresis was studied. There was a lack of significant difference between the specific activity of PPPase or its electrophoretic mobility in control extracts and those of extracts made 1 hour after injection of the rats with 5 mcg estradiol-17beta. Most of the recovered PPPase activity appeared in the fraction precipitating between 0-50% saturation with ammonium sulfate. Most of the IP is found at 50-80% saturation, and less than 10% of the PPPase activity. A single peak of PPPase activity was shown at a mobility of .5 relative to bovine serum albumin with electrophoresis of the 50-80% ammonium sulfate fraction. A peak of IP with mobility of 1.2 was also shown. ''The results are incompatible with the view that IP mediates estrogen action by virtue of its PPPase activity.''

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.

Incubation of purified cyclic guanosine 3':5'-monophospate-dependent protein kinase with [gamma-32P]ATP and Mg2+ led to formation of one 32P-labeled protein, Mr = 75,000, which corresponded to the single protein band detected after polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulfate. When electrophoresis was performed without detergent, the labeled protein coincided with the position of cGMP-dependent protein kinase activity. Phosphorylation was enhanced severalfold by either histone or cAMP and was inhibited by the addition of cGMP. Low concentrations of cGMP blocked the stimulatory effects of cAMP or histone (or both). Since neither cAMP-dependent protein kinase nor cGMP-dependent phosphoprotein phosphatase activities were detected in the purified enzyme, we concluded that the cGMP-dependent protein kinase is a substrate for its own phosphotransferase activity and that other protein substrates (histone) and cyclic nucleotides modulate the process of self-phosphorylation.

A heat-stable protein inhibitor of phosphoprotein phosphatase has been purified to homogeneity from rabbit liver extract by heating to 95 degrees followed by ion exchange chromatography on DEAE-cellulose and gel filtration on Sephadex G-200. The purified inhibitor showed a single band when examined by gel electrophoresis S20, w and Stokes radius values were 1.45 and 25.5, respectively. Using these two values, the molecular weight and frictional ratio was calculated to be 15,500 and 3.40, respectively. The molecular weight determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-gel electrophoresis was found to be 14,200. The inhibition of phosphoprotein phosphatase was linear up to 40% inhibition with respect to inhibitor was constant with time of incubation for at least 30 min. The optimum pH for the inhibition was between 6.8 and 7.6. A kinetic analysis of the effect of the inhibitor on the dephosphorylation of [32P]phosphorylase a by rabbit liver phosphoprotein phosphatase indicated a noncompetitive inhibition with respect to phosphorylase a. Purified liver inhibitor inhibited the phosphoprotein phosphatase activity in all rat tissues examined. Utilizing purified rabbit liver phosphoprotein phosphatase, the presence of inhibitor activity was also demonstrated in all rat tissues tested.

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.

The photoaffinity label 8-azido[32P]adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (8-azido-cyclic [32P]AMP) was used to analyze both the cAMP-binding component of the purified cAMP-dependent protein kinase, and the cAMP-binding proteins present in crude tissue extracts of bovine cardiac muscle. 8-Azido-cyclic [32P]AMP reacted specifically and in stoichiometric amounts with the cAMP-binding proteins of bovine cardiac muscle. Upon phosphorylation, the purified cAMP-binding protein from bovine cardiac muscle changed its electrophoretic mobility on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels from an apparent molecular weight of 54,000 to an apparent molecular weight of 56,000. In tissue extracts of bovine cardiac muscle, most of the 8-azido-cyclic [32P]AMP was incorporated into a protein band with an apparent molecular weight of 56,000 which shifted to 54,000 upon treatment with a phosphoprotein phosphatase. Thus a substantial amount of the cAMP-binding protein appeared to be in the phosphorylated form. Autoradiograms following sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of both the pure and impure cAMP-binding proteins labeled with 8-azido-cyclic [32P]AMP revealed another binding component with a molecular weight of 52,000 which incorporated 32P from [gamma-32P]ATP without changing its electrophoretic mobility. Limited proteolysis of the 56,000- and 52,000-dalton proteins labeled with 32P from either [gamma-32P]ATP.Mg2+ or 8-azido-cyclic [32P]AMP showed patterns indicating homology. On the other hand, peptide maps of the major 8-azido-cyclic [32P]AMP-labeled proteins from tissue extracts of bovine cardiac muscle (Mr = 56,000) and rabbit skeletal muscle (Mr = 48,000) displayed completely different patterns as expected for the cAMP-binding components of types II and I protein kinases. Both phospho- and dephospho-cAMP-binding components from the purified bovine cardiac muscle protein kinase were also resolved by isoelectric focusing on polyacrylamide slab gels containing 8 M urea. The phosphorylated forms labeled with 32P from either [gamma-32P]ATP or 8-azido-cyclic [32P]AMP migrated as a doublet with a pI of 5.35. The 8-azido-cyclic [32P]AMP-labeled dephosphorylated form also migrated as a doublet with a pI of 5.40. The phosphorylated and dephosphorylated cAMP-binding proteins migrated with molecular weights of 56,000 and 54,000, respectively, following a second dimension electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulfate. The lower molecular weight cAMP-binding component (Mr = 52,000) was also apparent in these gels. Similar experiments with the cAMP-binding proteins present in tissue extracts of bovine cardiac muscle indicate that they are predominantly in the phosphorylated form.

A simplified procedure for the purification of low molecular weight phosphoprotein phosphatase acting on muscle phosphorylase a has been described from rabbit heart. The enzyme was purified to homogeneity by acid precipitation, ethanol treatment, and chromatography on Sephadex G-75 and Sepharose-histone. The purified enzyme showed a single band when examined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis; the molecular weight calculated by this method was 34 000. The S20, W value and Stokes radius for the enzyme was 3.35 and 24.0 A(1 A = 0.1 nm), respectively. Using these two values, a molecular weight of 35 000 was calculated. Purified enzyme showed a wide substrate specificity and catalyzed the dephosphorylation of phosphorylase a, glycogen synthase D, phosphorylated histone, and phosphorylated casein. Kinetic studies revealed the lowest Km with glycogen synthase D and maximum Vmax for the reaction with phosphorylase a.

Cardiac microsomes contained an intrinsic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP)-dependent protein kinase which stimulated phosphorylation of serine residue(s) of microsomal protein. The phosphorylated residues were associated with a microsomal protein component of 20,000 molecular weight as determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Intrinsic phosphoprotein phosphatase activity of the microsomal membrane resulted in rapid dephosphorylation of these residues. Microsomes phosphorylated in the presence of cyclic AMP (10(-6) M) exhibited enhanced calcium uptake. We conclude that: 1) cardiac microsomes contain intrinsic cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase(s) which phosphorylate a specific microsomal protein and phosphoprotein phosphatase(s) capable of dephosphorylating this protein, 2) phosphorylation of this protein enhances calcium uptake, 3) reversible phosphorylation of microsomal membrane may be an important mechanism for the regulation of calcium uptake of cardiac microsomes by cyclic AMP.
