The phosphorylation of the alpha-subunit of Na+/K(+)-transporting ATPase (Na,K-ATPase) by cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) and protein kinase C (PKC) was characterized in purified enzyme preparations of Bufo marinus kidney and duck salt gland and in microsomes of Xenopus oocytes. In addition, we have examined cAMP and phorbol esters, which are stimulators of PKA and PKC, respectively, for their ability to provoke the phosphorylation of alpha-subunits of Na,K-ATPase in homogenates of Xenopus oocytes. In the enzyme from the duct salt gland, phosphorylation by PKA and PKC occurs on serine and threonine residues, whereas in the enzyme from B. marinus kidney and Xenopus oocytes, phosphorylation by PKA occurs only on serine residues. Phosphopeptide analysis indicates that a site phosphorylated by PKA resides in a 12-kDa fragment comprising the C terminus of the polypeptide. Studies of phosphorylation performed on homogenates of Xenopus oocytes show that not only endogenous oocyte Na,K-ATPase but also exogenous Xenopus Na,K-ATPase expressed in the oocyte by microinjection of cRNA can be phosphorylated in response to stimulation of oocyte PKA and PKC. In conclusion, these data are consistent with the possibility that the alpha-subunit of Na,K-ATPase can serve as a substrate for PKA and PKC in vivo.

The properties of divalent metal.ADP.vanadate (V(i)) complexes of the 6S extended and 10S folded conformations of gizzard myosin before and after UV irradiation have been studied. The half-lives of both 6S and 10S myosin.MgADP.V(i) complexes in the dark at 0 degrees C are on the order of 2 weeks. Brief irradiation with UV light, however, photomodified the enzyme as suggested by changes in the NH(4+)-, K(+)-, and Ca(2+)-ATPase activities, and destabilized the complexes. The 6S complex, when irradiated, released ADP and V(i) rapidly (t1/2 less than or equal to 1 min) as has been observed in comparable experiments with skeletal myosin subfragment 1 (S1) [Grammer et al. (1988) Biochemistry 27, 8408-8415]. The irradiated 10S complex released approximately 20% of the ADP and V(i) rapidly (t1/2 less than or equal to 1 min), but the remainder stayed trapped, possibly as the vanadyl (VO2+).ADP complex, for much longer times (t1/2 approximately 8 h). The site of photomodification was sought by reducing both photomodified 6S and 10S myosin with NaB3H4. Amino acid composition analyses identified [3H]serine as the only labeled residue(s), suggesting that the hydroxymethyl group of serine had been oxidized to an aldehyde as shown previously for photomodified skeletal myosin S1 [Cremo et al. (1989) J. Biol. Chem. 264, 6608-6611]. The 29-kDa NH2-terminal tryptic peptide from the heavy chain was found to contain essentially all of the [3H]serine. Preparations of 6S and 10S [3H]myosin were digested exhaustively with trypsin. An identical [3H]peptide was purified from each preparation and its sequence determined to be Glu169-Asp-Gln-Ser-Ile-Leu-(Cys)-Thr-Gly-[3H]Ser-Gly-Ala-Gly-Ly s183.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

beta Lys-155 in the glycine-rich sequence of the beta subunit of Escherichia coli F1-ATPase has been shown to be near the gamma-phosphate moiety of ATP by affinity labeling (Ida, K., Noumi, T., Maeda, M., Fukui, T., and Futai, M. (1991) J. Biol. Chem. 266, 5424-5429). For examination of the roles of beta Lys-155 and beta Thr-156, mutants (beta Lys-155-->Ala, Ser, or Thr; beta Thr-156-->Ala, Cys, Asp, or Ser; beta Lys-155/beta Thr-156-->beta Thr-155/beta Lys-156; and beta Thr-156/beta Val-157-->beta Ala-156/beta Thr-157) were constructed, and their properties were studied extensively. The beta Ser-156 mutant was active in ATP synthesis and had approximately 1.5-fold higher membrane ATPase activity than the wild type. Other mutants were defective in ATP synthesis, had < 0.1% of the membrane ATPase activity of the wild type, and showed no ATP-dependent formation of an electrochemical proton gradient. The mutants had essentially the same amounts of F1 in their membranes as the wild type. Purified mutant enzymes (beta Ala-155, beta Ser-155, beta Ala-156, and beta Cys-156) showed low rates of multisite (< 0.02% of the wild type) and unisite (< 1.5% of the wild type) catalyses. The k1 values of the mutant enzymes for unisite catalysis were lower than that of the wild type: not detectable with the beta Ala-156 and beta Cys-156 enzymes and 10(2)-fold lower with the beta Ala-155 and beta Ser-155 enzymes. The beta Thr-156-->Ala or Cys enzyme showed an altered response to Mg2+, suggesting that beta Thr-156 may be closely related to Mg2+ binding. These results suggest that beta Lys-155 and beta Thr-156 are essential for catalysis and are possibly located in the catalytic site, although beta Thr-156 could be replaced by a serine residue.

A single gene, VMA1, encodes the 69-kDa subunit of the vacuolar membrane H(+)-ATPase in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We have proposed that the subunit is synthesized as a precursor of 120 kDa (1,071 amino acids) and then converted to the 69-kDa form by an unusual processing reaction, which removes the internal domain of 454 amino acids (residues 284-737) and joins the N- and C-terminal domains. Cysteine to serine mutations at residues 284 and 738, the residues that bracket the internal domain, were introduced into the VMA1 gene by site-directed mutagenesis, and the mutant genes were expressed in a null vma1 mutant. Cells harboring either of the mutant vma1 genes accumulate nonfunctional fragments of the subunit. The mutation of Cys-284 inhibited the cleavage of the N-terminal junction site. Cys-738-->Ser mutation appeared to block the processing at both junction sites although the mutant gene yielded a small fraction of the functional 69-kDa subunit.

We present a new method to specifically and stably label proteins by attaching extrinsic probes to amino acids that are thiophosphorylated by protein kinases and ATP gamma S. The method was demonstrated for labeling of a thiophosphorylatable serine of the isolated regulatory light chain of smooth muscle myosin. We stoichiometrically blocked the single thiol (Cys-108) either by forming a reversible intermolecular disulfide bond or by reacting with iodoacetic acid. The protein was stoichiometrically thiophosphorylated at Ser-19 by myosin light chain kinase and ATP gamma S. The nucleophilic sulfur of the protein phosphorothioate was coupled at pH 7.9 and 25 degrees C to the fluorescent haloacetate [3H]-5-[[2-[(iodoacetyl)-amino]ethyl]amino]naphthalene-1- sulfonic acid ([3H]IAEDANS) by displacement of the iodide. Typical labeling efficiencies were 70-100%. The labeling was specific for the thiophosphorylated Ser-19, as determined from the sequences of two labeled peptides isolated from a tryptic digest of the labeled protein. [3H]IAEDANS attached to the thiophosphorylated Ser-19 was stable at pH 3-10 at 25 degrees C, and to boiling in high concentrations of reductant. The labeled light chains were efficiently exchanged for unlabeled regulatory light chains of the whole myosin molecule. The resulting labeled myosin had normal ATPase activities in the absence of actin, indicating that the modification of Ser-19 and the exchange of the labeled light chain into myosin did not significantly disrupt the protein. The labeled myosin partially retained the elevated actin-activated Mg(2+)-ATPase activity which is characteristic of thiophosphorylated myosin. This indicates that labeling of the thiophosphate group with [3H]IAEDANS did not completely disrupt the functional properties of the thiophosphorylated protein in the presence of actin.

The biosynthesis of phosphatidylserine (PtdSer) by the serine base-exchange enzyme system, in Jurkat T-lymphocytes, was inhibited in intact cells maintained in low-Ca(2+)-containing buffer (< 10 microM-Ca2+) by using Ca2+ ionophores (A23187 or ionomycin). The rise in cytosolic Ca2+ concentration under these experimental conditions was only due to the release of Ca2+ from intracellular compartments, suggesting that the inhibition of PtdSer synthesis was correlated with the emptying of intracellular Ca2+ pools. This was further studied in saponin-permeabilized cells, in which PtdSer synthesis was found to be inhibited by EGTA, Ca2+ ionophores (A23187 or ionomycin) and Ca(2+)-ATPase inhibitors [thapsigargin or 2,5-di-(t-butyl)-benzohydroquinone]. Since Ca(2+)-ATPase inhibitors impaired refilling of the Ca2+ stores with Ca2+, and since in CD3-activated Jurkat T-cells the Ca2+ stores remained empty after 1 h of treatment with anti-CD3 monoclonal antibodies, we suggest that PtdSer synthesis is mainly regulated by the level of Ca2+ in the intracellular compartments and that the Ca(2+)-dependent serine base-exchange system responsible for PtdSer synthesis is probably located within or close to a Ca(2+)-storage organelle.

Cysteine residues have been exchanged for serine residues at positions 10 and 108 in the epsilon subunit of the Escherichia coli F1 ATPase by site-directed mutagenesis to create two mutants, epsilon-S10C and epsilon-S108C. These two mutants and wild-type enzyme were reacted with [14C]N-ethylmaleimide (NEM) to examine the solvent accessibility of Cys residues and with novel photoactivated cross-linkers, tetrafluorophenyl azide-maleimides (TFPAM's), to examine near-neighbor relationships of subunits. In native wild-type F1 ATPase, NEM reacted with alpha subunits at a maximal level of 1 mol/mol of enzyme (1 mol/3 alpha subunits) and with the delta subunit at 1 mol/mol of enzyme; other subunits were not labeled by the reagent. In the mutants epsilon-S10C and epsilon-S108C, Cys10 and Cys108, respectively, were also labeled by NEM, indicating that these are surface residues. Reaction of wild-type enzyme with TFPAM's gave cross-linking of the delta subunit to both alpha and beta subunits. Reaction of the mutants with TFPAM's also cross-linked delta to alpha and beta and in addition formed covalent links between Cys10 of the epsilon subunit and the gamma subunit and between Cys108 of the epsilon subunit and the alpha subunit. The yield of cross-linking between sites on epsilon and other subunits depended on the nucleotide conditions used; this was not the case for delta-alpha or delta-beta cross-linked products. In the presence of ATP+EDTA the yield of cross-linking between epsilon-Cys10 and gamma was high (close to 50%) while the yield of epsilon-Cys108 and alpha was low (around 10%).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

The role of protein kinase C (PKC) in regulating the contractile state of smooth muscle was investigated using the constitutively active catalytic fragment of PKC (PKM) with skinned (demembranated) chicken gizzard fibres. PKM attenuated a submaximal contraction in gizzard smooth muscle skinned fibres, but not in rabbit cardiac skinned fibres. PKM-mediated relaxation of submaximal contractions of smooth muscle was accompanied by a reduction in the rate of ATP hydrolysis in the fibre and by phosphorylation of the 20 kDa light chain of gizzard myosin at the PKC sites (serine-1, serine-2 and threonine-9). In addition, several other endogenous proteins were phosphorylated by PKM. However, the inhibitory effects on tension and ATPase are consistent with the biochemical effects of PKC-catalysed phosphorylation of myosin, i.e. reduction of the actin-activated MgATPase activity of myosin prephosphorylated at serine-19 by myosin light chain kinase. Pretreatment of skinned fibres with PKM and ATP gamma S in the absence of Ca2+ had no inhibitory effect on the subsequent submaximal Ca(2+)-activation of force. Consistent with this observation, PKC was not able to utilize ATP gamma S as a substrate, confirming that the observed effects were the result of PKM-catalysed protein phosphorylation. We suggest that PKC may have two distinct effects on smooth muscle contraction: translocation of PKC to the sarcolemma on stimulation results in phosphorylation of a protein(s) other than myosin and a slow, sustained contraction; in some circumstances PKC may undergo proteolysis to PKM resulting in myosin phosphorylation at PKC-specific sites, a reduction in ATPase activity and relaxation of the muscle.

Monolayers of the Caco-2 human intestinal cell line exhibit active and passive uptake systems for the imino acid L-proline. The active transport component is saturable and it is responsible for about two thirds of the observed flux over the nanomolar concentration range, at 37 degrees C and pH 7.4. In contrast to L-phenylalanine, specific L-proline uptake has a high degree of sodium dependency and the efficiency of the carrier system is significantly reduced when protein synthesis (cycloheximide), Na+/K(+)-ATPase (ouabain) or cellular metabolism (sodium azide) are inhibited. The expression of the L-proline carrier by Caco-2 cells was under some degree of nutritional control. Glucose deficiency, over the time scale of the experiment, had no effect. The temperature-dependence of the specific uptake process followed the Arrhenius model with an apparent activation energy of 93.5 kJ nmol-1. This pathway also displayed Michaelis-Menten concentration-dependence with a Ksdm of 5.28 mM and a maximal transport flux (Jsdmax) of 835 pmol min-1 (10(6) cells)-1. Although the passive component was unchanged, the pH of the donor phase exerted a profound effect on the active carrier component. Within the physiological pH range a local maximum efficiency was found at pH 7.4 but dramatic increases were noted as pH 5.0 was approached. In competition studies, with 100-fold excess of a second amino acid, strong inhibition of uptake was found with alpha-aminoisobutyric acid, L-alanine and L-serine whereas moderate inhibition was observed with glycine, D-proline and gamma-aminoisobutyric acid. Aromatic and branched amino acids showed weak (L-valine) or no interaction (L-phenylalanine, L-leucine) with the carrier system. These data indicate that the carrier system for the uptake of L-proline has many features in common with the A system for amino acid transport.

1. Membrane fractions were obtained from homogenates of olfactory rosettes from Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) or from isolated olfactory cilia and homogenates of deciliated olfactory rosettes. 2. Specific binding of L-[3H]alanine was saturable, high-affinity, and effectively inhibited by L-threonine, L-serine and L-alanine but not by L-lysine or L-glutamic acid. Comparable results were obtained with L-[3H]serine except for the presence of a second, lower affinity, binding site for L-alanine but not L-serine. 3. Specific binding of L-[3H]alanine was inhibited by low concentrations of mercury ion, acidic pH, and high concentrations of cadmium, copper or zinc ions. Aluminum had no effect. 4. Specific binding sites for L-alanine were present in membranes from isolated cilia at a level 2-fold that of membranes prepared from the deciliated rosette. 5. Ouabain sensitive Na+, K(+)-ATPase activity was also determined in cilia preparations. This enzyme was present in cilia at a level approximately 3-fold that of membranes prepared from the deciliated rosette. 6. The results are consistent with the presence of an olfactory alanine receptor in S. salar with binding characteristics similar to those of a variety of other fish species and with a localization on olfactory cilia as well as non-ciliated receptor cell membranes.
