We describe studies concerning the ability of a nuclear dinucleoside triphosphatase to act as a decapping enzyme in RNA catabolism. The enzymatic release of GMP from the Gp3A moiety was determined in the capped RNA model compounds Gp3A3'pA, Gp3A3'pA-isoprop and Gp3A2'pA in isolated rat liver nuclei; i.e., in the environment in which the dinucleoside triphosphatase operates in vivo. The Gp3A cap moiety is hydrolyzed in (3'-5') linked nucleotides only, whereas an extension of the Gp3A in the 2'-direction prevents the nuclear triphosphatase to operate.

Glucagon receptor levels, glucagon-stimulated and other forms of adenylyl cyclase activity, and regulatory component activity of adenylyl cyclase were determined in hepatic plasma membranes of rats administered streptozotocin without and with insulin to produce varying degrees of hyperglycemia. Receptor levels were assayed by direct binding of the specific probe [125I-Tyr10]-iodoglucagon; regulatory component activity was assayed by the capacity to reconstitute stimulatory regulation in deficient membranes from cyc- S49 murine lymphoma cells. In rats given 150 mg streptozotocin, glucagon stimulation of adenylyl cyclase as well as basal, sodium fluoride, 5' guanylylimidodiphosphate [GMP-P(NH)P] and Mn-dependent activities were reduced 50%, glucagon receptor levels but not affinity were reduced 67%, and regulatory component activity was decreased 50%. In addition, alpha 1-adrenergic receptors and 5'-nucleotidase were similarly reduced in diabetes. However, specific ouabain-inhibitable Na+, K+, ATPase activity was not altered by streptozotocin treatment. The streptozotocin-induced changes were noted within 24 h and became maximal by 120 h after its administration. All of these decreases were partially reversed by in vivo insulin treatment. DNA, cytochrome c oxidase, glucose-6-phosphatase, and N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminidase content in hepatic plasma membrane preparations were not substantially different in diabetic as compared with control animals. The data demonstrate that glucagon-mediated regulation of cyclic AMP formation is deranged in insulin deficiency owing to a combined decrease in receptors, derangement of the coupling mechanism intervening between receptor and adenylyl cyclase, and possibly, an altered basal effector system. Some of these changes appear to reflect a "desensitization-like" phenomenon which may or may not be attributable to the hyperglucagonemia of diabetes mellitus. There also appears to be a concurrent generalized decrease in several but not all plasma membrane receptor and enzymatic proteins. This may be the result of a number of processes among which is the accelerated proteolysis of uncontrolled diabetes.

Guanylyltransferase that catalyzes mRNA capping by the reaction, ppNpN + GTP----GpppNpN was purified from S. cerevisiae. The enzyme forms a nucleotidyl intermediate by phosphoamide linkage of GMP. Two guanylylated polypeptides of MR approximately 52,000 and 46,000 were obtained, the latter apparently by proteolysis of the larger component. Both forms transferred the covalently bound GMP to ppApG, yielding GpppApG. Dinucleoside tri- and tetraphosphates of the type Gp3N and Gp4N were also produced by using ribonucleoside 5'-di and triphosphates as acceptors. The purified yeast guanylyltransferase contained little or no RNA 5'-triphosphatase or methyltransferase.

GTP:mRNA guanylyltransferase, an enzyme that catalyzes the transfer of a GMP residue from GTP to the 5' end of RNA to form a cap structure identified as G(5')pppN-, has been isolated from HeLa cell nuclei. The enzyme has been purified approximately 1000-fold and separated by column chromatography (using DEAE-cellulose, phosphocellulose, Cibacron blue-agarose, and GTP-agarose) from a variety of other activities, including RNA triphosphatase and mRNA (guanine-7)methyltransferase. The reaction product was identified by its resistance to Penicillium nuclease and alkaline phosphatase, sensitivity to venom phosphodiesterase, and electrophoretic and chromatographic mobilities relative to authentic standards. Optimal enzyme activity was obtained at pH 7.5 in the presence of Mn2+ or Mg2+, GTP, and an appropriate acceptor polyribonucleotide. The enzyme was inhibited by elevated concentrations of salt and by sulfhydryl-binding reagents but was unaffected by S-adenosylmethionine or S-adenosylhomocysteine. A molecular weight of 48,500 was estimated by sucrose gradient centrifugation of purified enzyme.

Vaccinia virus mRNA capping enzyme is a multifunctional protein with RNA triphosphatase, RNA guanylyltransferase, RNA (guanine-7) methyltransferase, and transcription termination factor activities. The protein is a heterodimer of 95- and 33-kDa subunits encoded by the vaccinia virus D1 and D12 genes, respectively. The capping reaction entails transfer of GMP from GTP to the 5'-diphosphate end of mRNA via a covalent enzyme-(lysyl-GMP) intermediate. The active site is situated at Lys-260 of the D1 subunit within a sequence element, KxDG (motif I), that is conserved in the capping enzymes from yeasts and other DNA viruses and at the active sites of covalent adenylylation of RNA and DNA ligases. Four additional sequence motifs (II to V) are conserved in the same order and with similar spacing among the capping enzymes and several ATP-dependent ligases. The relevance of these common sequence elements to the RNA capping reaction was addressed by mutational analysis of the vaccinia virus D1 protein. Nine alanine substitution mutations were targeted to motifs II to V. Histidine-tagged versions of the mutated D1 polypeptide were coexpressed in bacteria with the D12 subunit, and the His-tagged heterodimers were purified by Ni affinity and phosphocellulose chromatography steps. Whereas each of the mutated enzymes retained triphosphatase, methyltransferase, and termination factor activities, six of nine mutant enzymes were defective in some aspect of transguanylylation. Individual mutations in motifs III, IV, and V had distinctive effects on the affinity of enzyme for GTP, the rate of covalent catalysis (EpG formation), or the transfer of GMP from enzyme to RNA. These results are concordant with mutational studies of yeast RNA capping enzyme and suggest a conserved structural basis for covalent nucleotidyl transfer.

Transcription termination by vaccinia virus RNA polymerase during synthesis of early mRNAs requires a virus-encoded termination factor (VTF). VTF is but one of many activities associated with the vaccinia virus mRNA capping enzyme, a heterodimer of 95- and 33-kDa subunits encoded by the D1 and D12 genes, respectively. Although the three catalytic domains involved in cap formation have been assigned to individual subunits or portions thereof, the structural requirements for VTF activity are unknown. We now report that both full-length subunits are required for transcription termination. The 844-amino acid D1 subunit by itself, which is fully active in triphosphatase and guanylyltransferase functions, has no demonstrable VTF activity in vitro. Neither does the D12 subunit by itself. The heterodimeric methyltransferase domain of D1 (residues 498 to 844) and D12 subunits also has no VTF activity. VTF is not affected by a K-to-M mutation of the guanylyltransferase active site at position 260 (K260M) that abolishes enzyme-GMP complex formation or by a H682A/Y683A double mutation of the D1 subunit, which abrogates methyltransferase activity. Thus, the structural requirements for termination are distinct from those for nucleotidyl transfer and methyl transfer.

The vaccinia virus mRNA capping enzyme is a heterodimeric protein containing subunits of 97 and 33 kDa, the products of genes D1R and D12L, respectively. The enzyme catalyzes the first three reactions in the mRNA cap formation pathway: mRNA triphosphatase, guanyltransferase and (guanine-7-)methyltransferase. The guanyltransferase reaction proceeds by way of a covalent enzyme GMP (E-GMP) intermediate (Shuman, S. and Hurwitz, J. (1981) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 78, 187-191) in which the GMP is linked to the large subunit through a lysine residue (Toyama, R., Mizumoto, K., Nakahara, Y., Tatsuno, T., and Kaziro, Y. (1983) Eur. J. Biochem. 2, 2195-2201; Roth, M. J., and Hurwitz, J. (1984) J. Biol Chem. 259, 13488-13494). In order to identify the map position of the guanyltransferase active site lysine residue, high specific activity [32P]E-GMP was prepared. Digestion of the E-GMP with hydroxylamine at pH 9.5 yielded a 31-kDa radioactive fragment derived from amino acids 1-273. Cleavage of E-GMP with cyanogen bromide produced a radioactive peptide of 14 kDa corresponding to amino acids 242-365. Lysine residues are found at positions 244 and 260. Staphylococcus aureus V8 protease digestion of cyanogen bromide-cleaved E-GMP yields a radioactive product of about 5 kDa in molecular mass corresponding to the peptide generated by cleavage at glutamic acid residues 253 and 297, demonstrating that lysine 260 is the site of linkage of GMP.

D1R1-545, an active subdomain of the large subunit of vaccinia virus mRNA capping enzyme possessing ATPase, RNA 5'-triphosphatase, and guanylyltransferase activities, was expressed in Escherichia coli and shown to be functionally equivalent to the heterodimeric enzyme (Myette, J. R., and Niles, E. G. (1996) J. Biol. Chem. 271, 11936-11944). A detailed characterization of the phosphohydrolytic activities of D1R1-545 demonstrates that, in addition to ATPase and RNA 5'-triphosphatase activities, the capping enzyme also possesses a general nucleoside triphosphate phosphohydrolase activity that lacks a preference for the nucleoside base or sugar. Nucleoside triphosphate and mRNA saturation kinetics are markedly different, with RNA exhibiting a Km and turnover number 100- and 10-fold less, respectively, than those values measured for any NTP. The linear competitive inhibition of RNA 5'-triphosphatase activity by ATP, and the relative manner by which both ATPase and RNA 5'-triphosphatase activities are inhibited by specific oligonucleotides, kinetically demonstrate that each activity is carried out at a common active site. Direct UV photo-cross-linking of either 32P-radiolabeled ATP or 23-mer triphosphorylated RNA, followed by cyanogen bromide cleavage of the photo-linked enzyme, localizes the major binding site for both ATP and RNA to a region between amino acids 1 and 221. The inability of ATP to competitively inhibit either E approximately GMP formation or the transfer of GMP to RNA kinetically differentiates the phosphohydrolase active site from the guanylyltransferase active site.

The yeast mRNA capping enzyme is composed of 52 (alpha) and 80 kDa (beta) polypeptides, which are responsible for its mRNA guanylyltransferase and RNA 5'-triphosphatase activities, respectively. We isolated the gene encoding the alpha subunit (CEG1) and showed that CEG1 is essential for yeast cell growth [Shibagaki et al., (1992) J. Biol. Chem. 267, 9521-9528]. In this study, CEG1 was expressed in Escherichia coli and the alpha subunit protein was purified to near homogeneity. A [32P]GMP-bound tryptic peptide derived from the recombinant enzyme-[32P]GMP covalent reaction intermediate was converted to a [32P]phosphoryl-peptide through periodate oxidation followed by beta-elimination. Hydrolysis of the [32P]phosphoryl-peptide with alkali resulted in [32P]N epsilon-phospholysine as the only phosphoamino acid, indicating that GMP in the enzyme-GMP complex is bound to a lysine residue via a phosphoamide linkage. Microsequencing of the [32P]GMP-peptide showed that the GMP binding site was located in the region between amino acids 60 and 75, which contained an internal trypsin-resistant lysine at position 70. CEG1 was subjected to site-directed mutagenesis and the mutant proteins were expressed in E. coli. Substitution of His or Ile for Lys70 entirely abolished the enzyme-GMP formation activity, and this mutation was lethal to yeast in vivo, supporting the notion that the active site in the alpha subunit is located at Lys70. Replacement of Lys70 with Arg reduced the ability to form the enzyme-GMP complex; however, yeast cells bearing this allele were not viable. A series of mutations, including 8 amino acid replacements and 3 insertions, near the active site (Lys70-Thr-Asp-Gly motif) were also introduced and the mutant polypeptides were examined for catalytic activity in vitro as well as yeast cell viability in vivo. There was a good correlation between the in vitro and in vivo functions of the mutant proteins, except when Asp72 was replaced with Glu, which allowed formation of the enzyme-GMP complex but failed to support cell growth. The results with Lys70 to Arg and Asp72 to Glu substitutions indicated that guanylyltransfer to RNA and/or additional roles besides cap formation per se are impaired in these mutant proteins.

Autotaxin (ATX) is an extracellular enzyme and an autocrine motility factor that stimulates pertussis toxin-sensitive chemotaxis in human melanoma cells at picomolar to nanomolar concentrations. This 125-kDa glycoprotein contains a peptide sequence identified as the catalytic site in type I alkaline phosphodiesterases (PDEs), and it possesses 5'-nucleotide PDE (EC 3.1.4.1) activity (Stracke, M. L., Krutzsch, H. C., Unsworth, E. J., Arestad, A., Cioce, V., Schiffmann, E., and Liotta, L. (1992) J. Biol. Chem. 267, 2524-2529; Murata, J., Lee, H. Y., Clair, T., Krutsch, H. C., Arestad, A. A., Sobel, M. E., Liotta, L. A., and Stracke, M. L. (1994) J. Biol. Chem. 269, 30479-30484). ATX binds ATP and is phosphorylated only on threonine. Thr210 at the PDE active site of ATX is required for phosphorylation, 5'-nucleotide PDE, and motility-stimulating activities (Lee, H. Y., Clair, T., Mulvaney, P. T., Woodhouse, E. C., Aznavoorian, S., Liotta, L. A., and Stracke, M. L. (1996) J. Biol. Chem. 271, 24408-24412). In this article we report that the phosphorylation of ATX is a transient event, being stable at 0 degrees C but unstable at 37 degrees C, and that ATX has adenosine-5'-triphosphatase (ATPase; EC 3.6.1.3) and ATP pyrophosphatase (EC 3.6.1.8) activities. Thus ATX catalyzes the hydrolysis of the phosphodiester bond on either side of the beta-phosphate of ATP. ATX also catalyzes the hydrolysis of GTP to GDP and GMP, of either AMP or PPi to Pi, and the hydrolysis of NAD to AMP, and each of these substrates can serve as a phosphate donor in the phosphorylation of ATX. ATX possesses no detectable protein kinase activity toward histone, myelin basic protein, or casein. These results lead to the proposal that ATX is capable of at least two alternative reaction mechanisms, threonine (T-type) ATPase and 5'-nucleotide PDE/ATP pyrophosphatase, with a common site (Thr210) for the formation of covalently bound reaction intermediates threonine phosphate and threonine adenylate, respectively.
