Current information is reviewed on the mechanism of secretion in small intestine, including how it is altered by cyclic 3',5'-adenosine monophosphate and on the structures and properties of cholera and both heat-labile and heat-stable Escherichia coli enterotoxins. Two separate active ion transport processes are altered by cyclic 3',5'-adenosine monophosphate: 1) coupled absorption of NaCl is inhibited in villus cells and 2) active anion secretion is stimulated, probably in crypt cells. Cholera and heat-labile E. coli toxins exert their secretory effect by stimulating intestinal mucosal adenylate cyclase. This stimulation results from the A1 subunit catalyzed transfer of adenosine diphosphate ribose from NAD to a membrane-bound guanosine triphosphatase, thereby inhibiting the enzyme, which normally represses adenylate cyclase. Heat-stable E. coli enterotoxin stimulates intestinal mucosal guanylate cyclase, which appears to be the basis for its enterotoxicity.

The reverse reaction of the ADP-ribosylation of actin by Clostridium botulinum C2 toxin and Clostridium perfringens iota-toxin was studied. In the presence of nicotinamide (30-50 mM) C2 toxin and iota-toxin decreased the radioactive labeling of [32P]ADP-ribosylated actin and catalyzed the formation of [32P]NAD. The pH optima for both reactions were 5.5-6.0. Concomitant with the removal of ADP-ribose, the ability of actin to polymerize was restored and actin ATPase activity increased. Neither ADP-ribosylation nor removal of ADP-ribose was observed after treatment of actin with EDTA, indicating that the native structure of actin is required for both reactions. ADP-ribosylation of platelet actin by C2 toxin was reversed by iota-toxin, confirming recent reports that both toxins modify the same amino acid in actin. However, C. botulinum C2 toxin was not able to cleave ADP-ribose from skeletal muscle actin which had been incorporated by iota-toxin, corroborating the different substrate specificities of both toxins.

Brush-border and basal-lateral membranes were prepared from rabbit intestinal epithelial cells by differential centrifugation and MgCl2 precipitation. The ADP-ribosylation of proteins in these fractions when incubated with [adenylate-32P]NAD+ and cholera toxin was investigated. Three proteins of molecular mass 45, 40 and 37 kDa were labelled in a toxin-dependent manner in each membrane fraction. The incorporation of 32P-labelled ADP-ribose was 18-fold greater in brush-border membranes than in basal-lateral membranes, comparable to the enrichment of sucrase (marker enzyme for the brush border) in these membranes. There was a 20% release of the 40 and 45 kDa proteins from the brush-border membrane following this ADP-ribosylation. Activation of adenylate cyclase by both cholera toxin and sodium fluoride was 2.7- and 2.3-fold greater, respectively, in basal-lateral membranes than in brush-border membranes, comparable to the enrichment of Na+/K+-ATPase (marker enzyme for the basal-lateral membrane) in these membranes. The effect of sodium fluoride on membranes pretreated with cholera toxin revealed no increase in adenylate cyclase activity above that due to the toxin. This presumably means that both toxin and fluoride activate adenylate cyclase by the same regulatory protein. The results show that cholera toxin catalyzes the ADP-ribosylation of regulatory proteins in the brush-border membrane, and these proteins then migrate to the basal-lateral membrane where they activate the catalytic component of adenylate cyclase.

A simple and fast ion pair reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic method has been developed for the simultaneous determination of ATP, ADP, AMP, GTP, GDP, IMP, NADP+, NADPH+, NAD+, NADH, ADP-ribose, inosine, adenosine, hypoxanthine, and xanthine. This method allows us to have a complete picture of the most important nucleotides present in fresh human erythrocytes. Furthermore it is particularly useful in the study of the erythrocyte adenine nucleotide catabolism allowing the detection of degradation products such as IMP, inosine, adenosine, hypoxanthine, and xanthine. The separation of the compounds under investigation is achieved in less than 15 min using a reversed-phase 3-micron Supelcosil LC-18 column and adding tetrabutylammonium, as ion-pair agent, to the buffers. The short time of analysis, the high reproducibility of the system, and the accurate evaluation of the compounds of interest make this method particularly suitable for routine analysis. Finally it is possible to use this assay as an alternative method of measuring activities of enzymes which catalyze reactions involving some of these compounds, as in the case of Na+-K+ ATPase, AMP deaminase, and adenosine deaminase.

Inhibition of poly (ADP-ribose) synthesis by agents such as 3-aminobenzamide (3-AB) potentiates the cytotoxic, carcinogenic, and clastogenic effects of certain DNA-damaging agents. Experiments were carried out in Chinese hamster ovary cells to compare chromosome aberration production and cytotoxicity with the induction of somatic mutations at the hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HGPRT) and sodium-potassium ATPase loci after treatment with 3-AB in combination with certain monofunctional alkylating agents. On its own, 1 to 10 mM concentrations of 3-AB were not mutagenic, reduced plating efficiencies only slightly, and produced a small elevation in the frequency of chromatid aberrations. In combination with ethyl methanesulfonate (EMS), 3-AB increased cytotoxicity and the frequency of alkylation-induced chromatid aberrations. 3-AB also increased the frequency of EMS and N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine-induced 6-thioguanine-resistant cells (a marker for the HGPRT- phenotype). It had no effect on the frequency of EMS-induced ouabain-resistant cells (a marker for ATPase mutations). All the effects were dose dependent. Larger absolute increases were found with 10 mM 3-AB as compared with 1 mM 3-AB and with 2 mM EMS as compared to 1 mM EMS. The 3-AB-mediated increases in 6-thioguanine-resistant cells, which are often deletion mutations, and the lack of any increase in the frequency of ouabain-resistant cells, which can only arise through point mutation induction, along with the increases in chromosome aberration frequency, suggests that 3-AB increases the frequency of deletion mutations by increasing the frequency and duration of DNA strand breaks.

Turkey erythrocyte ADP-ribosyltransferase A catalyzes the transfer of ADP-ribose from NAD to both monomeric and polymeric skeletal muscle alpha-actin with the incorporation of 2 mol of ADP-ribose per mol of actin. In contrast, Clostridium perfringens iota toxin ADP-ribosylates only G-actin, with modification at arginine-177 [Vandekerckhove, J., et al. (1987) FEBS Lett. 255, 48-42]. Transferase A-catalyzed modifications are sensitive to 0.5 M neutral hydroxylamine, consistent with the arginine side chain modification. Radiolabeled peptides ADP-ribosylated by transferase A were generated by tryptic digestion and purified by reversed phase high-performance liquid chromatography. Amino acid sequence and molecular mass analysis identified the ADP-ribosylation sites as Arg-95 and Arg-372 of actin; both residues are located within subdomain-1 of the actin 3D structure [Kabsch, W., et al. (1990) Nature 347, 37-44]. ADP-ribosylation did not affect cytochalasin D-stimulated G-actin ATPase, the binding of actin to DNase I or to gelsolin, or the ability of actin to polymerize. Following ADP-ribosylation, however, a prolonged delay in polymerization was observed, consistent with a decreased rate of nucleation.

We compared acceptor-protein specificities on the formation of ADP-ribose.acceptor adducts by arginine-specific ADP-ribosyltransferase (EC 2.4.2.31) purified from rabbit skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) with those of the enzyme purified from chicken peripheral polymorphonuclear cells (heterophils). Major differences are as follows: (1), p33 and beta/gamma-actin, preferential endogenous acceptor proteins for the modification by the heterophil enzyme (Mishima, K., Terashima, M., Obara, S., Yamada, K., Imai, K and Shimoyama, M. (1991) J. Biochem. 110, 388-394 and Terashima, M., Mishima, K., Yamada, K., Tsuchiya, M., Wakutani, T. and Shimoyama, M. (1992) Eur. J. Biochem. 204, 305-311) were not modified by the SR enzyme. (2), The modification of p33 by the heterophil enzyme was enhanced by addition of polyanions such as DNA while the protein did not function as acceptor for modification by the SR enzyme even in the presence of DNA. (3), To ADP-ribosylate endogenous substrate Ca(2+)-transporting ATPase (EC 3.6.1.38) of rabbit skeletal muscle SR, the SR ADP-ribosyltransferase required polycations such as poly(L-lysine), whereas the heterophil enzyme modified the ATPase in the absence of poly(L-lysine). These results suggest that vertebrate arginine-specific ADP-ribosyltransferase prefers its own acceptor protein for the modification. Some other properties of the SR and the heterophil ADP-ribosyltransferases were also compared.

Human cells express at least eight members of the MutT motif protein (or nudix hydrolase) family. These enzymes are believed to eliminate toxic nucleotide derivatives from the cell and regulate the levels of important signalling nucleotides and their metabolites. Six have been fully or partially characterized: i) hMTH1 is a nucleoside triphosphatase which restricts AT-->CG transversions by specifically degrading the oxidized nucleotide 8-oxo-dGTP; ii) hAPAH1 preferentially degrades the signalling dinucleotide Ap4A; iii) DIPP is unusual in hydrolysing two seemingly unrelated signalling substrate groups - the dinucleotides Ap6A and Ap5A, and the diphosphoinositol polyphosphates; iv) DIPP2 is closely related to DIPP; v) hYSAH1 is an NDP-sugar hydrolase which prefers ADP-ribose, and vi) hGFG is a protein of unknown function encoded by the antisense transcript of the basic fibroblast growth factor gene. Although not yet associated with known hereditary or acquired disorders, the functional loss of any one of these hydrolases would be expected to be detrimental to cellular function. Furthermore, the ialA invasion gene of Bartonella bacilliformis and other invasive pathogens encodes a MutT motif Ap4A hydrolase while poxviruses express two MutT motif proteins, at least one of which is essential for infectivity. This protein family, therefore, occupies a position of some importance in controlling human health and disease.

The role of dense core secretory vesicles in the control of cytosolic-free Ca(2+) concentrations ([Ca(2+)](c)) in neuronal and neuroendocrine cells is enigmatic. By constructing a vesicle-associated membrane protein 2-synaptobrevin.aequorin chimera, we show that in clonal pancreatic islet beta-cells: (a) increases in [Ca(2+)](c) cause a prompt increase in intravesicular-free Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)]SV), which is mediated by a P-type Ca(2+)-ATPase distinct from the sarco(endo) plasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase, but which may be related to the PMR1/ATP2C1 family of Ca(2+) pumps; (b) steady state Ca(2+) concentrations are 3-5-fold lower in secretory vesicles than in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) or Golgi apparatus, suggesting the existence of tightly bound and more rapidly exchanging pools of Ca(2+); (c) inositol (1,4,5) trisphosphate has no impact on [Ca(2+)](SV) in intact or permeabilized cells; and (d) ryanodine receptor (RyR) activation with caffeine or 4-chloro-3-ethylphenol in intact cells, or cyclic ADPribose in permeabilized cells, causes a dramatic fall in [Ca(2+)](SV). Thus, secretory vesicles represent a dynamic Ca(2+) store in neuroendocrine cells, whose characteristics are in part distinct from the ER/Golgi apparatus. The presence of RyRs on secretory vesicles suggests that local Ca(2+)-induced Ca(2+) release from vesicles docked at the plasma membrane could participate in triggering exocytosis.

We have studied the Ca(2+) leak pathways in the endoplasmic reticulum of pancreatic acinar cells by directly measuring Ca(2+) in the endoplasmic reticulum ([Ca(2+)](ER)). Cytosolic Ca(2+) ([Ca(2+)](C)) was clamped to the resting level by a BAPTA-Ca(2+) mixture. Administration of cholecystokinin within the physiological concentration range caused a graded decrease of [Ca(2+)](ER), and the rate of Ca(2+) release generated by 10 pm cholecystokinin is at least 3x as fast as the basal Ca(2+) leak revealed by inhibition of the endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase. Acetylcholine also evokes a dose-dependent decrease of [Ca(2+)](ER), with an EC(50) of 0.98 +/- 0.06 microm. Inhibition of receptors for inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP(3)) by heparin or flunarizine blocks the effect of acetylcholine but only partly blocks the effect of cholecystokinin. 8-NH(2) cyclic ADP-ribose (20 microm) inhibits the action of cholecystokinin, but not of acetylcholine(.) The basal Ca(2+) leak from the endoplasmic reticulum is not blocked by antagonists of the IP(3) receptor, the ryanodine receptor, or the receptor for nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate. However, treatment with puromycin (0.1-1 mm) to remove nascent polypeptides from ribosomes increases Ca(2+) leak from the endoplasmic reticulum by a mechanism independent of the endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) pumps and of the receptors for IP(3) or ryanodine.
