The effect of direct phosphorylation by recombinant p44erk1 mitogen-activated protein kinase on the inhibitory activity of caldesmon and its C-terminal fragment H1 was studied in vitro. Neither inhibition of actin-tropomyosin activated ATPase of heavy meromyosin by caldesmon or H1, nor inhibition of the actin-tropomyosin motility over heavy meromyosin by H1 was significantly affected by the phosphorylation while only a moderate effect on the actin-activated component of heavy meromyosin ATPase inhibition was observed. Phosphopeptide mapping of caldesmon immunoprecipitated from [32P]PO4-labelled intact gizzard strips revealed that it is predominantly phosphorylated at mitogen-activated protein kinase sites in unstimulated tissue and that it is stimulated for 1 h with phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate. We find that phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate also induces a transitory phosphorylation of caldesmon peaking at 15 min after addition and this phosphorylation is not attributed to mitogen-activated protein kinase, protein kinase C, Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent kinase II or casein kinase II. We suggest that a yet unidentified kinase, rather than mitogen-activated protein kinase, may be involved in regulation of the caldesmon function in vivo.

Although the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) is known to regulate the intracellular concentration of Ca2+ and the SR function has been shown to become abnormal during ischemia-reperfusion in the heart, the mechanisms for this defect are not fully understood. Because phosphorylation of SR proteins plays a crucial role in the regulation of SR function, we investigated the status of endogenous Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase (CaMK) and exogenous cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) phosphorylation of the SR proteins in control, ischemic (I), and ischemia-reperfused (I/R) hearts treated or not treated with superoxide dismutase (SOD) plus catalase (CAT). SR and cytosolic fractions were isolated from control, I, and I/R hearts treated or not treated with SOD plus CAT, and the SR protein phosphorylation by CaMK and PKA, the CaMK- and PKA-stimulated Ca2+ uptake, and the CaMK, PKA, and phosphatase activities were studied. The SR CaMK and CaMK-stimulated Ca2+ uptake activities, as well as CaMK phosphorylation of Ca2+ pump ATPase (SERCA2a) and phospholamban (PLB), were significantly decreased in both I and I/R hearts. The PKA phosphorylation of PLB and PKA-stimulated Ca2+ uptake were reduced significantly in the I/R hearts only. Cytosolic CaMK and PKA activities were unaltered, whereas SR phosphatase activity in the I and I/R hearts was depressed. SOD plus CAT treatment prevented the observed alterations in SR CaMK and phosphatase activities, CaMK and PKA phosphorylations, and CaMK- and PKA-stimulated Ca2+ uptake. These results indicate that depressed CaMK phosphorylation and CaMK-stimulated Ca2+ uptake in I/R hearts may be due to a depression in the SR CaMK activity. Furthermore, prevention of the I/R-induced alterations in SR protein phosphorylation by SOD plus CAT treatment is consistent with the role of oxidative stress during ischemia-reperfusion injury in the heart.

Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II is thought to participate in M3 muscarinic receptor-mediated acid secretion in gastric parietal cells. During acid secretion tubulovesicles carrying H+/K+-ATPase fuse with the apical membrane. We localized Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II from highly purified rabbit gastric tubulovesicles using Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II isoform-specific antibodies, in vitro phosphorylation and pharmacological inhibition of Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II activity by the potent Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II inhibitor KN-62. The presence of Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II in tubulovesicles was shown by immunoblot detection of both Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II-gamma (54 kDa) and Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II-delta (56.5 kDa). The immunoprecipitated Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II from tubulovesicles showed Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase activity by phosphorylating autocamtide-II, a specific synthetic Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II substrate. KN-62 inhibited the in vitro autophosphorylation of tubulovesicle-associated Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (IC50 = 11 nM). During the search for potential Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II substrates we identified different proteins associated with tubulovesicles, such as synaptophysin and beta-tubulin immunoreactivity, which were identified using specific antibodies. These targets are known to participate in intracellular membrane traffic. Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II is thought to play an important role in regulating tubulovesicular motor activity and therefore in acid secretion.

Calmodulin (CaM) and Ca(2+)/CaM-dependent protein kinase II (CaM kinase) are tightly associated with cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) and are implicated in the regulation of transmembrane Ca(2+) cycling. In order to assess the importance of membrane-associated CaM in modulating the Ca(2+) pump (Ca(2+)-ATPase) function of SR, the present study investigated the effects of a synthetic, high affinity CaM-binding peptide (CaM BP; amino acid sequence, LKWKKLLKLLKKLLKLG) on the ATP-energized Ca(2+) uptake, Ca(2+)-stimulated ATP hydrolysis, and CaM kinase-mediated protein phosphorylation in rabbit cardiac SR vesicles. The results revealed a strong concentration-dependent inhibitory action of CaM BP on Ca(2+) uptake and Ca(2+)-ATPase activities of SR (50% inhibition at approximately 2-3 microM CaM BP). The inhibition, which followed the association of CaM BP with its SR target(s), was of rapid onset (manifested within 30 s) and was accompanied by a decrease in V(max) of Ca(2+) uptake, unaltered K(0.5) for Ca(2+) activation of Ca(2+) transport, and a 10-fold decrease in the apparent affinity of the Ca(2+)-ATPase for its substrate, ATP. Thus, the mechanism of inhibition involved alterations at the catalytic site but not the Ca(2+)-binding sites of the Ca(2+)-ATPase. Endogenous CaM kinase-mediated phosphorylation of Ca(2+)-ATPase, phospholamban, and ryanodine receptor-Ca(2+) release channel was also strongly inhibited by CaM BP. The inhibitory action of CaM BP on SR Ca(2+) pump function and protein phosphorylation was fully reversed by exogenous CaM (1-3 microM). A peptide inhibitor of CaM kinase markedly attenuated the ability of CaM to reverse CaM BP-mediated inhibition of Ca(2+) transport. These findings suggest a critical role for membrane-bound CaM in controlling the velocity of Ca(2+) pumping in native cardiac SR. Consistent with its ability to inhibit SR Ca(2+) pump function, CaM BP (1-2.5 microM) caused marked depression of contractility and diastolic dysfunction in isolated perfused, spontaneously beating rabbit heart preparations. Full or partial recovery of contractile function occurred gradually following withdrawal of CaM BP from the perfusate, presumably due to slow dissociation of CaM BP from its target sites promoted by endogenous cytosolic CaM.

1. This study examined the role of [Ca2+]I and Ca(2+)-dependent kinases in the modulation of high-affinity, mammalian brain-specific L-proline transporter (PROT). 2. beta-PMA (phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate), an activator of protein kinase C (PKC), inhibits PRO uptake, and bisindolymalemide I (BIM), a potent PKC inhibitor, prevents beta-PMA inhibition. Down-regulation of PKC by chronic treatment with beta-PMA enhances PROT function indicating PROT regulation by tonic activity of PKC. 3. Thapsigargin, which increases [Ca2+]I levels by inhibiting Ca(2+)-ATPase, inhibits PROT and exhibits additive inhibition when co-treated with beta-PMA. KN-62, a Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent kinase II (CaMK II) inhibitor, but not BIM (a PKC inhibitor) prevents the inhibition by thapsigargin. These data suggest that PKC and CaMK II modulate PROT and that thapsigargin mediates its effect via CaMK II. 4. Thapsigargin raises [Ca2+]I and increases PRO-induced current on a second time scale, whereas the inhibitory effect of thapsigargin occurs only after 10 min of treatment. These data suggest that Ca2+ differentially regulate PROT: Ca2+ initially enhances PRO transport but eventually inhibits transport function through CaMK II pathway. 5. Ca(2+)-induced stimulation exemplifies the acute regulation of a neurotransmitter transporter, which may play a critical role in the profile of neurotransmitters during synaptic transmission.

Because the activity of the sodium pump (Na-K-ATPase) influences the secretion of aldosterone, we determined how extracellular potassium (K(o)) and calcium affect sodium pump activity in rat adrenal glomerulosa cells. Sodium pump activity was measured as ouabain-sensitive (86)Rb uptake in freshly dispersed cells containing 20 mM sodium as measured with sodium-binding benzofluran isophthalate. Increasing K(o) from 4 to 10 mM in the presence of 1.8 mM extracellular calcium (Ca(o)) stimulated sodium pump activity up to 165% and increased intracellular free calcium as measured with fura 2. Increasing K(o) from 4 to 10 mM in the absence of Ca(o) stimulated the sodium pump approximately 30% and did not increase intracellular free calcium concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)). In some experiments, addition of 1.8 mM Ca(o) in the presence of 4 mM K(o) increased [Ca(2+)](i) above the levels observed in the absence of Ca(o) and stimulated the sodium pump up to 100%. Ca-dependent stimulation of the sodium pump by K(o) and Ca(o) was inhibited by isradipine (10 microM), a blocker of L- and T-type calcium channels, by compound 48/80 (40 microg/ml) and calmidizolium (10 microM), which inhibits calmodulin (CaM), and by KN-62 (10 microM), which blocks some forms of Ca/CaM kinase II (CaMKII). Staurosporine (1 microM), which effectively blocks most forms of protein kinase C, had no effect. In the presence of A-23187, a calcium ionophore, the addition of 0.1 mM Ca(o) increased [Ca(2+)](i) to the level observed in the presence of 10 mM K(o) and 1.8 mM Ca(o) and stimulated the sodium pump 100%. Ca-dependent stimulation by A-23187 and 0.1 mM Ca(o) was not reduced by isradipine but was blocked by KN-62. Thus, under the conditions that K(o) stimulates aldosterone secretion, it stimulates the sodium pump by two mechanisms: direct binding to the pump and by increasing calcium influx, which is dependent on Ca(o). The resulting increase in [Ca(2+)](i) may stimulate the sodium pump by activating CaM and/or CaMKII.

We investigated the effect of inhibiting Na+-K+-ATPase on the basolateral 18-pS K+ channel in the cortical collecting duct (CCD) of the rat kidney. Inhibiting Na+-K+-ATPase with strophanthidin decreased the activity of the 18-pS K+ channel and increased the intracellular Ca2+ to 420 nM. Removal of extracellular Ca2+ abolished the effect of strophanthidin. When intracellular Ca2+ was raised with 5 microM ionomycin or A-23187 to 300, 400, and 500 nM, the activity of the 18-pS K+ channel in cell-attached patches fell by 40, 85, and 96%, respectively. To explore the mechanism of Ca2+-induced inhibition, the effect of 400 nM Ca2+ on channel activity was studied in the presence of calphostin C, an inhibitor of protein kinase C, or KN-93 and KN-62, inhibitors of calmodulin-dependent kinase II. Addition of calphostin C or KN-93 or KN-62 failed to block the inhibitory effect of high concentrations of Ca2+ . This suggested that the inhibitory effect of high concentrations of Ca2+ was not mediated by protein kinase C or calmodulin-dependent kinase II pathways. To examine the possibility that the inhibitory effect of high concentrations of Ca2+ was mediated by the interaction of nitric oxide with superoxide, we investigated the effect of 400 nM Ca2+ on channel activity in the presence of 4,5-dihydroxy-1,3-benzenedisulfonic acid (Tiron) or N(omega)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester. Pretreatment of the tubules with 4,5-dihydroxy-1,3-benzenedisulfonic acid or N(omega)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester completely abolished the inhibitory effect of 400 nM Ca2+ on channel activity. Moreover, application of 4,5-dihydroxy-1,3-benzenedisulfonic acid reversed the inhibitory effect of strophanthidin. We conclude that the effect of inhibiting Na+-K+-ATPase is mediated by intracellular Ca2+ and the inhibitory effect of high concentrations of Ca2+ is the result of interaction of nitric oxide with superoxide.

To decipher the mechanism(s) underlying glucocorticoid action on cardiac contractile function, this study investigated the effects of adrenalectomy and dexamethasone treatment on the contents of sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+)-cycling proteins, their phosphorylation by endogenous Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaM kinase II), and SR Ca(2+) sequestration in the rat myocardium. Cardiac SR vesicles from adrenalectomized rats displayed significantly diminished rates of ATP-energized Ca(2+) uptake in vitro compared with cardiac SR vesicles from control rats; in vivo administration of dexamethasone to adrenalectomized rats prevented the decline in SR function. Western immunoblotting analysis showed that the relative protein amounts of ryanodine receptor/Ca(2+)-release channel, Ca(2+)-ATPase, calsequestrin, and phospholamban were neither diminished significantly by adrenalectomy nor elevated by dexamethasone treatment. However, the relative amount of SR-associated CaM kinase II protein was increased 2.5- to 4-fold in dexamethasone-treated rats compared with control and adrenalectomized rats. Endogenous CaM kinase II activity, as judged from phosphorylation of ryanodine receptor, Ca(2+)-ATPase, and phospholamban protein, was also significantly higher (50--80% increase) in the dexamethasone-treated rats. The stimulatory effect of CaM kinase II activation on Ca(2+) uptake activity of SR was significantly depressed after adrenalectomy and greatly enhanced after dexamethasone treatment. These findings identify the SR as a major target for glucocorticoid actions in the heart and implicate modification of the SR CaM kinase II system as a component of the mechanisms by which dexamethasone influences SR Ca(2+)-cycling and myocardial contraction.

Phosphorylation-dependent events have been shown to modulate the activity of several members of the mammalian CLC Cl- channel gene family, including the inward rectifier ClC-2. In the present study we investigated the regulation of rat ClC-2 expressed in the TSA-201 cell line (a transformed HEK293 cell line that stably expresses the SV40 T-antigen) by protein kinases. Protein kinase A activation phosphorylated ClC-2 in vivo, whereas stimulation of protein kinase C with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate did not. In vitro labeling studies confirmed that protein kinase A could directly phosphorylate ClC-2, and that protein kinase C and Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II did not. Nevertheless, protein kinase A-dependent phosphorylation of CLC-2 failed to regulate either the magnitude or the kinetics of the hyperpolarization-activated Cl- currents. Considered together, we demonstrate that protein kinase A activation results in the phosphorylation of rat ClC-2 in vivo, but this event is independent of Cl- channel activity.

Phospholamban (PLB) plays a primary role in regulating cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+)-ATPase activity. Dephosphorylated PLB suppresses the SR Ca(2+) pump activity, whereas phosphorylation of PLB leads to deinhibition. A widely accepted sequential model of dual site PLB phosphorylation states that PKA-dependent phosphorylation of Ser(16) is obligatory to phosphorylation of Thr(17) by Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent kinase II, and mainly accounts for beta-adrenergic receptor mediated cardiac relaxation. However, emerging evidence supports independent phosphorylation of Ser(16) and Thr(17) and their independent contributions to cardiac relaxation. Furthermore, concurrent activation of PKA and CaMKII signaling pathways exhibits a robust synergistic effect on phosphorylation of Thr(17), but not of Ser(16). Thus, the synergistic interaction may masquerade as a sequential phosphorylation of Ser(16) and Thr(17) under certain circumstances. Further studies are required to determine the exact process of dual site PLB phosphorylation and its functional roles in healthy and diseased hearts.
