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.

Canine cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles contain intrinsic protein phosphatase activity, which can dephosphorylate phospholamban and regulate calcium transport. This phosphatase has been suggested to be a mixture of both type 1 and type 2 enzymes (E. G. Kranias and J. Di Salvo, 1986, J. Biol. Chem. 261, 10,029-10,032). In the present study the sarcoplasmic reticulum phosphatase activity was solubilized with n-octyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside and purified by sequential chromatography on DEAE-Sephacel, polylysine-agarose, heparin-agarose, and DEAE-Sephadex. A single peak of phosphatase activity was eluted from each column and it was coincident for both phospholamban and phosphorylase a, used as substrates. The partially purified phosphatase could dephosphorylate the sites on phospholamban phosphorylated by either cAMP-dependent or calcium-calmodulin-dependent protein kinase(s). Enzymatic activity was inhibited by inhibitor-2 and by okadaic acid (I50 = 10-20 nM), using either phosphorylase a or phospholamban as substrates. The sensitivity of the phosphatase to inhibitor-2 or okadaic acid was similar for the two sites on phospholamban, phosphorylated by the cAMP-dependent and the calcium-calmodulin-dependent protein kinases. Phospholamban phosphatase activity was enhanced (40%) by Mg2+ or Mn2+ (3 mM) while Ca2+ (0.1-10 microM) had no effect. These characteristics suggest that the phosphatase associated with cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum is a type 1 enzyme, and this activity may participate in the regulation of Ca2+ transport through dephosphorylation of phospholamban in cardiac muscle.

The protein phosphatases which dephosphorylate native, sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR)-associated phospholamban were studied in cardiac muscle extracts and in a Triton fraction prepared by detergent extraction of myofibrils, the latter fraction containing 70-80% of the SR-associated proteins present in the tissue. At physiological concentrations of free Mg2+ (1 mM), protein phosphatase 1 (PP1) accounted for approximately 70% of the total phospholamban phosphatase activity in these fractions towards either Ser-16 (the residue labelled by cAMP-dependent protein kinase, PK-A) or Thr-17 (the residue phosphorylated by an SR-associated Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase). Protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) and protein phosphatase 2C (PP2C) accounted for the remainder of the activity. A major form of cardiac PP1, present in comparable amounts in both the extract and Triton fraction, was similar, if not identical, to skeletal muscle protein phosphatase 1G (PP1G), which is composed of the PP1 catalytic (C) subunit complexed to a G subunit of approximately 160 kDa, responsible for targeting PP1 to both the SR and glycogen particles of skeletal muscle. This conclusion was based on immunoblotting experiments using antibody to the G subunit, ability to bind to glycogen and the release of PP1 activity from glycogen upon incubation with PK-A and MgATP. PP1 accounted for approximately 90% of the phospholamban (Ser-16 or Thr-17) phosphatase activity in the material sedimented by centrifugation at 45,000 x g, a fraction prepared from cardiac extracts which is enriched in SR membranes. The G subunit in this fraction could be solubilised by Triton X-100, but not with 0.5 M NaCl or digestion with alpha-amylase, indicating that it is bound to membranes and not to glycogen. By analogy with the situation in skeletal muscle, the PK-A catalysed phosphorylation of the G subunit, with ensuing release of the C subunit from the SR, may prevent PP1 from dephosphorylating SR-bound substrates and represent one of the mechanisms by which adrenalin increases the phosphorylation of cardiac phospholamban (Ser-16 and Thr-17) in vivo. Hearts left in situ post mortem lose 85-95% of their PP1 activity within 20-30 min. This remarkable disappearance of PP1 may partly explain why the importance of this enzyme in cardiac muscle metabolism has not been recognized previously.

Noninsulin-dependent diabetes is associated with a decrease in the activity of sarcolemmal phosphatase 1, but no change in the activities of phosphatase 2A, 2B, or 2C. Also unaffected by diabetes were the activities of protein kinase C, cAMP-dependent protein kinase and calcium-calmodulin protein kinase. Because of the decrease in phosphatase 1 activity, 32P incorporation into sarcolemmal phosphoproteins catalyzed by either intrinsic protein kinases or extrinsic cAMP-dependent protein kinase was elevated in the diabetic. Among the proteins whose phosphorylation was elevated in diabetes was the phospholamban-like protein, which has been implicated in the regulation of ATP-dependent calcium transport. The phosphate-linked increase could be prevented by exposing the membranes to a phosphatase inhibitor and either extrinsic cAMP-dependent protein kinase or alamethicin. In addition to the phosphatase-linked effects, analysis of individual sarcolemmal phosphoproteins by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis indicated that diabetes caused a specific elevation in membrane phosphorylation of some proteins (43 kDa and 78 kDa), but a decrease in the phosphorylation state of other phosphoproteins (31 kDa and 49 kDa). The data indicate that membrane phosphorylation is dramatically altered by diabetes. The possibility that this contributes to altered myocardial function is discussed.

Inhibitor-1 following phosphorylation by protein kinase A inhibits phosphoprotein phosphatase-1. We have found that in the rat heart inhibitor-1 is present only in the cytosolic fraction and that its phosphorylation in ventricular slices was increased by isoproterenol but not by isoproterenol and propranolol together. Cardiac microsomal phosphoprotein phosphatase activity, with added phosphorylase a as the substrate, was inhibited 33% by phosphorylated inhibitor-1. Phosphorylated inhibitor-1 decreased the dephosphorylation by exogenous phosphoprotein phosphatase-1 of phospholamban present in the sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes. These results suggest an interaction of cytoplasmic inhibitor-1 with either cytoplasmic or membrane-bound phosphoprotein phosphatase-1 with a subsequent effect on the level of phosphorylated phospholamban and the probable involvement of this interaction in the cardiac response to beta-adrenergic hormones.

A protein phosphatase which dephosphorylates phospholamban was purified from canine cardiac cytosol. Purification involved sequential chromatography on DEAE-Sephacel, polylysine-agarose, heparin-agarose, Mono Q HR 10/10, and Superose 6. The enzyme was composed of three subunits with Mr = 63,000, 55,000, and 38,000, and it could dephosphorylate the sites on phospholamban phosphorylated by either cAMP-dependent or calcium-calmodulin-dependent protein kinase. Phospholamban phosphatase activity was enhanced 12-, 9-, and 3-fold by the divalent cations Mg2+, Mn2+, and Ca2+, respectively. The phosphatase was inhibited by PPi, ATP, NaF, and Pi and the degree of inhibition was different with each compound. The substrate specificity of the purified phosphatase for cardiac phosphoproteins was determined using troponin I, phospholamban, and highly enriched sarcolemmal and sarcoplasmic reticulum preparations, phosphorylated by the cAMP-dependent protein kinase. The phosphatase exhibited the highest activity with phospholamban as substrate. Thus, dephosphorylation of phospholamban by this phosphatase may participate in regulation of sarcoplasmic reticulum function in cardiac muscle.

Canine cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum is phosphorylated by adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP)-dependent and by calcium.calmodulin-dependent protein kinases on a 27,000 proteolipid, called phospholamban. Both types of phosphorylation are associated with an increase in the initial rates of Ca2+ transport by SR vesicles which reflects an increased turnover of elementary steps of the calcium ATPase reaction sequence. The stimulatory effects of the protein kinases on the calcium pump may be reversed by an endogenous protein phosphatase, which can dephosphorylate both the cAMP-dependent and the calcium.calmodulin-dependent sites on phospholamban. Thus, the calcium pump in cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum appears to be under reversible regulation mediated by protein kinases and protein phosphatases.

Calcium fluxes across the sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane are regulated by phosphorylation of a 27,000-dalton membrane-bound protein termed phospholamban. Phospholamban is phosphorylated by three different protein kinases (cAMP-dependent, Ca2+.CAM-dependent and Ca2+.phospholipid dependent) at apparently distinct sites. Phosphorylation by each of the protein kinases increases the rates of active calcium transport by sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles. The stimulatory effects of protein kinases on the calcium pump may be reversed by an endogenous protein phosphatase activity. The phosphoprotein phosphatase can dephosphorylate both the cAMP-dependent and the Ca2+.CAM-dependent sites of phospholamban. Phosphorylation of phospholamban also occurs in situ, in perfused beating hearts, during the peak of the inotropic response to beta-adrenergic stimulation. Reversal of the stimulatory effects is associated with dephosphorylation of phospholamban. Thus, in vivo and in vitro studies suggest that phospholamban is a regulator for the calcium pump in cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum. The degree of phospholamban phosphorylation determined by the interaction of specific protein kinases and phosphatases may represent an important control for sarcoplasmic reticulum function and, thus, for the contraction-relaxation cycle in the myocardium. In this review, we summarize recent evidence on physical and structural properties of phospholamban, the proposed structural molecular models for this protein, and the significance of its regulatory role both in vitro and in situ.

Canine cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum is phosphorylated by an endogenous calcium-calmodulin-dependent protein kinase on a 22,000 proteolipid, called phospholamban. Phosphorylation by the calcium-calmodulin-dependent protein kinase is associated with stimulation of the initial rates of calcium transport (Davis, B. A., Schwartz, A., Samaha, F. J., and Kranias, E. G. (1983) J. Biol. Chem. 258, 13587-13591). The present study shows that protein phosphatase activity, associated with canine cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles, can catalyze dephosphorylation of the calcium-calmodulin-dependent sites on phospholamban. The activity was maximally stimulated by manganese; fluoride was inhibitory, but its effect was reversible. Dephosphorylation of phospholamban, which was prephosphorylated by calcium-calmodulin-dependent protein kinase, resulted in a reduction of the stimulation on calcium transport rates, particularly at submaximal calcium concentrations. The decrease in calcium transport was associated with a statistically significant decrease in the apparent affinity (EC50) for calcium. Rephosphorylation of phospholamban by the endogenous calcium-calmodulin-dependent protein kinase caused full recovery of the stimulation on calcium transport rates and reversal of the effects mediated by the protein phosphatase. Thus, the calcium pump in cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum appears to be under reversible regulation mediated by endogenous calcium-calmodulin-dependent protein kinase and protein phosphatase. Such regulation may represent an important control mechanism for the myocardium.

Canine cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles contain intrinsic phospholamban protein phosphatase activity, which is also effective in dephosphorylating phosphorylase a. The phosphatase associated with sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes was solubilized with Triton X-100 and subjected to chromatography on Mono Q HR 5/5 and polylysine-agarose. A single peak of phosphatase activity was eluted from each column and it was coincident for both phospholamban and phosphorylase a, used as substrates. Thermal denaturation of the enzyme resulted in progressive and coincident loss of both phospholamban and phosphorylase a phosphatase activities. Enzymic activity was partially inhibited by protein phosphatase inhibitor 1. Migration of the enzyme during sucrose density gradient ultracentrifugation corresponded to a globular protein with an apparent Mr of 46,000. This enzyme preparation could dephosphorylate both the calcium-calmodulin-dependent as well as the cAMP-dependent sites on phospholamban. Thus, dephosphorylation of phospholamban by this sarcoplasmic reticulum-associated phosphatase may participate in modulating sarcoplasmic reticulum function in cardiac muscle.
