We have previously shown that bradykinin-induced production of second messengers such as inositol trisphosphate and diacylglycerol in neurotumor cells is inhibited by raising cellular cyclic AMP levels, which in turn inhibit phospholipase C. A monoclonal antibody to phospholipase C-II immunoprecipitated the 140-kDa form of phospholipase C-II from [35S]methionine/[3H]eucine-labeled cells, but not [32P]orthophosphate-labeled phospholipase C-II, following treatment with either forskolin or dibutyryl cyclic AMP. This suggested that phospholipase C is not the target for cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase-mediated phosphorylation. In vitro studies confirmed that phospholipase C activity was inhibited by raising cellular cAMP levels, and partial sensitivity to Bordetella pertussis toxin suggested the involvement of a GTP-binding protein which could be the target for protein kinase A. The involvement of a GTP-binding protein in coupling the bradykinin receptor to phospholipase C was further suggested by the ability of both guanosine 5'-O-(thio-triphosphate) and fluoride (NaF) to release inositol phosphates from NCB-20 cell membranes previously labeled with [3H]inositol. Both effects were blocked by pretreatment of the cells with protein kinase A activators, further suggesting a GTP-binding protein as the target for protein kinase A-mediated phosphorylation. When whole NCB-20 cell extracts were blotted onto nitrocellulose and incubated with [alpha- 32P]GTP, a major 24-kDa band plus minor bands at 22 and 20 kDa were revealed by autoradiography. A pH 3.0/6.0 soluble (basic protein) NCB-20 cell extract revealed the major 24-kDa band plus the 20-kDa band, and similar basic proteins were shown to be heavily phosphorylated following [32P]orthophosphate labeling and pretreatment with forskolin. The size and ability to bind GTP on Western blots are characteristic of the ras, rho, smg, etc. family of GTP-binding proteins recently suggested to be the much sought after GPLC (Lapetina, E.G., Lacal, J. C., Reep, B. R., and Molina y Vedia, L. (1989) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 86, 3131-3134; Wang, P., Nishihata, J., Takabori, E., Yamamoto, K., Toyoshima, S., and Osawa, T. (1989) J. Biochem. (Tokyo) 105, 461-466; Nagata, K.-I., Nagao, S., and Nozawa, Y. (1989) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 160, 235-242). We propose that GPLC is uniquely sensitive to protein kinase A-mediated phosphorylation and that phosphorylation inhibits stimulus-secretion coupling in these cells.

We investigated the interaction of phospholipase C-gamma (PLC-gamma) with wild-type and mutant forms of the platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) beta-receptor both in vivo and in vitro. After PDGF treatment of CHO cell lines expressing wild-type or either of two mutant (delta Ki and Y825F) PDGF receptors, PLC-gamma became tyrosine phosphorylated and associated with the receptor proteins. The receptor association and tyrosine phosphorylation of PLC-gamma correlated with the ability of these receptors to mediate ligand-induced phosphatidylinositol turnover. However, both the delta Ki and Y825F mutant receptors were deficient in transmitting mitogenic signals, suggesting that the PDGF-induced tyrosine phosphorylation and receptor association of PLC-gamma are not sufficient to account for the growth-stimulatory activity of PDGF. Wild-type and delta Ki mutant PDGF receptor proteins expressed with recombinant baculovirus vectors also associated in vitro with mammalian PLC-gamma. However, baculovirus-expressed c-fms, v-fms, c-src, and Raf-1 proteins failed to associate with PLC-gamma under similar conditions. Phosphatase treatment of the baculovirus-expressed PDGF receptor greatly decreased its association with PLC-gamma. This requirement for receptor phosphorylation was also observed in vivo, where PLC-gamma could not associate with a mutant PDGF receptor (K602A) defective in autophosphorylation. PLC-gamma also coimmunoprecipitated with two other putative receptor substrates, the serine-threonine kinase Raf-1 and the 85-kilodalton phosphatidylinositol-3' kinase, presumably through its association with the ligand-activated receptor. Furthermore, baculovirus-expressed Raf-1 phosphorylated purified PLC-gamma in vitro at sites which showed increased serine phosphorylation in vivo in response to PDGF. These results suggest that PDGF directly influences PLC activity by inducing the association of PLC-gamma with a receptor signaling complex, resulting in increased tyrosine and serine phosphorylation of PLC-gamma.

Human erythroleukemia (HEL) cells phosphorylate [3H]inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate to inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate; they also contain all the enzymes to sequentially dephosphorylate [3H]inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and [3H]inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate to inositol. alpha-Thrombin, 1-O-alkyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine, and sodium fluoride caused the formation of [3H]inositol phosphates in HEL cells that were previously labeled with [3H]inositol. This indicates agonist-induced activation of phospholipase C and hydrolysis of the inositol phospholipids. Pretreatment of the HEL cells with iloprost, a prostacyclin analog that increases cellular cyclic AMP levels, dramatically reduced the formation of inositol phosphates and the increase of [3H]phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate. The inhibitory effects of iloprost were associated with the phosphorylation of a 24-kDa protein, which was detected with an antiserum obtained against the rap 1 protein. The catalytic subunit of protein kinase A inhibited formation of polyphosphoinositides during phosphorylation of the rap 1 protein in membranes. This rap 1 protein might have functional relevance in the inhibition of agonist-induced inositide metabolism.

Forskolin-pretreatment of A431 cells reduced both intrinsic and epidermal growth factor (EGF)-induced EGF receptor phosphorylation, however, phosphorylation of phospholipase C-gamma (PLC-gamma) was stimulated under the same conditions. No significant difference was detected in the amount of phosphotyrosine of PLC-gamma between two cultures with or without forskolin treatment followed by EGF. On the other hand, phosphorylation of a 47 kDa protein (P47) which cross-reacted with an anti-PLC-gamma monoclonal antibody, was stimulated by both forskolin and EGF. Phosphorylation was exclusively on serine residues in this case. These results indicate that both PLC-gamma and P47 are phosphorylated by a cAMP-dependent protein kinase and the EGF-stimulated serine kinase, and suggest that serine phosphorylation of PLC-gamma has no effect on ligand-dependent coupling with the EGF receptor.

Because functionally significant substrates for the tyrosyl protein kinase activity of pp60v-src are likely to include membrane-associated proteins involved in normal growth control, we have tested the hypothesis that pp60v-src could phosphorylate and alter the signaling activity of transmembrane growth factor receptors. We have found that the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor becomes constitutively phosphorylated on tyrosine in cells transformed by the src oncogene and in addition displays elevated levels of phosphoserine and phosphothreonine. High-performance liquid chromatography phosphopeptide mapping revealed two predominant sites of tyrosine phosphorylation, both of which differed from the major sites of receptor autophosphorylation; thus, the src-induced phosphorylation is unlikely to occur via an autocrine mechanism. To determine whether pp60v-src altered the signaling activity of the EGF receptor, we analyzed the tyrosine phosphorylation of phospholipase C-gamma, since phosphorylation of this enzyme occurs in response to activation of the EGF receptor but not in response to pp60v-src alone. We found that in cells coexpressing pp60v-src and the EGF receptor, phospholipase C-gamma was constitutively phosphorylated, a result we interpret as indicating that the signaling activity of the EGF receptor was altered in the src-transformed cells. These findings suggest that pp60v-src-induced alterations in phosphorylation and function of growth regulatory receptors could play an important role in generating the phenotypic changes associated with malignant transformation.

Previous studies have demonstrated enhanced phosphorylation of phospholipase C-tau (PLC-tau), a key regulatory enzyme in phosphoinositide metabolism, in cells treated with platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) and epidermal growth factor, both of which act via specific receptor tyrosine kinases. Our studies on BALB/c-3T3 cells show that agents that promote cellular cyclic AMP accumulation also increase the phosphorylation, specifically the serine phosphorylation, of this enzyme. Increased phosphorylation of PLC-t (2-3-fold) was evident within 5-10 min of addition of isobutylmethylxanthine (IBMX) and either cholera toxin or forskolin to cells, and persisted for at least 3 h. Treatment of cells with cyclic AMP agonists also enhanced, with similar kinetics, the phosphorylation of a 76 kDa protein co-precipitated by anti-PLC-tau monoclonal antibodies. Brief exposure of cells to cholera toxin/IBMX or forskolin/IBMX decreased inositol phosphate formation induced by the GTP-binding protein (G-protein) activator aluminium fluoride by approx. 50%, but was without effect on PDGF-stimulated inositol phosphate formation. These findings suggest that PLC-tau, and perhaps the 76 kDa co-precipitated protein, are substrates of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase in BALB/c-3T3 cells: however, the lack of effect of cyclic AMP elevation on PDGF-stimulated inositol phosphate formation indicates that the intrinsic activity of PLC-tau is unaltered by cyclic AMP-mediated phosphorylation.

The localization of several GTP-binding regulatory proteins in teh apical membrane of intestinal epithelial cells has prompted us to investigate a possible role for G-proteins as modulators of apical Cl- channels. In membrane vesicles isolated from rat small intestine or human HT29-cl.19A colon carcinoma cells, the entrapment of guanosine 5'-O-(3-thiophosphate (GTP gamma S) led to a large increase in Cl- conductance, as evidenced by an increased 125I- uptake and faster SPQ quenching. The enhancement was observed in the presence, but not in the absence of the K+ ionophore valinomycin, indicating that the increased Cl- permeability is not secondary to the opening of K+ channels. The effect of GTP gamma S was counteracted by guanosine 5'-O-(2-thiophosphate (GDP beta S) and appeared to be independent of cytosolic messengers, including ATP, cAMP, and Ca2+, suggesting that protein phosphorylation and/or phospholipase C activation is not involved. Patch clamp analysis of apical membrane patches of HT29-cl.19A colonocytes revealed a GTP gamma S-activated, inwardly rectifying, anion-selective channel with a unitary conductance of 20 +/- 4 pS. No spontaneous channel openings were observed in the absence of GTP gamma S, while the open time probability (Po) increases dramatically to 0.81 +/- 0.09 upon addition with GTP gamma S. Since the electrophysiological characteristics and regulatory properties of this channel are markedly different from those of the more widely studied cAMP/protein kinase A-operated channel, we propose the existence of a separate Cl(-)-selective ion channel in the apical border of intestinal epithelial cells. Our results suggest an alternative regulatory pathway in transepithelial salt transport and a possible site for anomalous channel regulation as observed in cystic fibrosis patients.

The kit protooncogene encodes a transmembrane tyrosine kinase related to the receptors for the platelet derived growth factor (PDGF-R) and the macrophage growth factor (CSF1-R), and was very recently shown to bind a stem cell factor. To compare signal transduction by the kit kinase with signaling by homologous receptors we constructed a chimeric protein composed of the extracellular domain of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGF-R) and the transmembrane and cytoplasmic domains of kit. We have previously shown that the chimeric receptor transmits potent mitogenic and transforming signals in response to the heterologous ligand. Here we demonstrate that upon ligand binding, the ligand-receptor complex undergoes endocytosis and degradation and induces short- and long-term cellular effects. Examination of the signal transduction pathway revealed that the activated kit kinase strongly associates with phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase activity and a phosphoprotein of 85 kd. In addition, the ligand-stimulated kit kinase is coupled to modifications of phospholipase C gamma and the Raf1 protein kinase. However, it does not lead to a significant change in the production of inositol phosphate. Comparison of our results with the known signaling pathways of PDGF-R and CSF1-R suggests that each receptor is coupled to a specific combination of signal transducers.

Changes in the intracellular free calcium ([Ca2+]i) of cultured normal human epidermal keratinocytes (NHEK) were investigated in order to determine whether the adenylate cyclase cAMP (AC) system and phospholipase C activating system are involved in increasing [Ca2+]i. NHEK were obtained from neonatal foreskin and grown in serum-free medium (K-GM) supplemented with 2% bovine pituitary extract. [Ca2+]i was measured by fluorescence ratio imaging microscopy using Fura-2 as the indicator. In the case of the AC system, transient increases in [Ca2+]i were observed in response to stimulation with epinephrine, norepinephrine, isoproterenol and salbutamol. Methoxamine, clonidine and dobutamine did not induce any [Ca2+]i increase. The [Ca2+]i increase evoked by epinephrine was inhibited by pretreatment with propranolol, but not by prazosin or yohimbine, indicating that epinephrine-induced [Ca2+]i elevation via beta 2-adrenergic stimulation. Similar changes were observed when NHEK were stimulated with histamine, adenosine, GTP gamma S, forskolin and dibutyryl cAMP respectively. The absence of extracellular Ca2+ had no effect on the epinephrine-induced [Ca2+]i increase. It appears that activated protein kinase A, based on cAMP accumulation via stimulatory GTP binding protein, elicited the release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores. On the other hand, when drugs known to activate phospholipase C in a wide variety of cell types were tested, a transient increase in [Ca2+]i was demonstrated in response to the addition of thrombin, bradykinin and substance P. This reaction was not affected by the presence of EGTA, suggesting that these drugs raise [Ca2+]i via phosphatidylinositol breakdown. Vasopressin, angiotensin II, serotonin and acetylcholine did not induce any increase in [Ca2+]i. On the basis of these studies, it was concluded that NHEK possess the mechanism which increase [Ca2+]i via AC system and phospholipase C activating system. It seems probable that this rise in [Ca2+]i initiates a calcium-dependent cellular response, such as activation of calcium/calmodulin dependent kinase, and subsequently regulates the proliferation and differentiation of human epidermal keratinocytes.

Although most studies of protein phosphorylation have focused on intracellular protein kinases, evidence for protein kinase activity on the surface of several types of cells has been described. Evidence was recently provided for the existence of ecto-protein kinase activity on the surface of human neutrophils. Evidence for three distinct ecto-protein kinase activities was detected, one that phosphorylates endogenous surface proteins, one that phosphorylates exogenous substrates in a cAMP-independent manner and is released in the presence of substrate, and a low level of activity of one that phosphorylates exogenous Kemptide in a cAMP-dependent manner. To begin to elucidate its role in neutrophil function, we have characterized several properties of the releasable ecto-protein kinase activity on human neutrophils. This enzyme activity was inhibited by impermeant stilbene disulfonic acids, which are known to alter neutrophil function, as well as by impermeant sulfhydryl reactive agents. Enzyme activity was detectable at physiologic concentrations of Mg2+, but was higher in the presence of Mn2+. Protein kinase activity was strongly inhibited by heparin, whereas trifluoperazine, cAMP, and cGMP had little effect on kinase activity. Protein kinase activity was selectively removed from the cell surface by incubation with the ecto-kinase substrates casein and phosvitin, but the enzyme was not released by phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C. Repeated exposure of neutrophils to substrate depleted ecto-protein kinase activity from the cell surface, but activity was rapidly restored by incubation in buffer lacking substrate. The released protein kinase had a Km for ATP of approximately 0.5 microM and a pH maximum between 7.0 and 7.5. At least four ecto-protein kinase substrates were detected in serum; vitronectin was identified as one of these substrates by immunoprecipitation studies. Although the exact role of ecto-protein kinase activity in neutrophil function remains undefined, the identification of vitronectin as a serum substrate suggests that it interacts with a physiologically important substrate.
