The Rous sarcoma virus (RSV)-transforming protein, pp60src, is a plasma membrane-associated tyrosine-specific protein kinase. A 36,000-Da cellular polypeptide (p36) which is phosphorylated at tyrosine in RSV-transformed chicken embryo fibroblasts (RSV-CEF) is also plasma membrane associated. To determine if p36 is directly phosphorylation and kinase activity in situ in the plasma membrane, src-dependent protein phosphorylation in membranes isolated from RSV-CEF has been characterized. These membrane preparations contained high ATPase and phosphoprotein phosphatase activities; but when sufficient concentrations of [gamma-32P]ATP were used, the phosphorylation of pp60src and the phosphorylation of p36 were linear for 1 min or more, and the initial rates of phosphorylation could therefore be determined. In membranes from RSV-CEF pp60src and p36 became phosphorylated predominantly at tyrosine, while in membranes from uninfected cells p36 was phosphorylated at low levels at serine. When membranes from RSV-CEF were preincubated with tumor-bearing rabbit (TBR) serum, the IgG became phosphorylated while the phosphorylation of p36 was inhibited, suggesting that p36 is directly phosphorylated by pp60src. Phosphorylation of pp60src, p36, and TBR-IgG was dependent on growth temperature in membranes from cells infected by a temperature-sensitive mutant, tsNY68, although some dependence on growth temperature was observed even with membranes from wild-type RSV-infected cells. However, at the nonpermissive temperature, tsNY68 pp60src retained 20-40% of its kinase activity, providing supporting for the proposal (B. M. Sefton, T. Hunter, and K. Beemon (1980, J. Virol, 33, 220-229) that transformation may result from a small quantitative change in pp60src activity. The phosphorylation of pp60src and its kinase activity were not coordinately affected by growth temperature or mutations within src, indicating that different factors affect the phosphoacceptor capacity and kinase activity of the protein.

The sequence of the 16,019 nucleotide-pair mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) molecule of Drosophila yakuba is presented. This molecule contains the genes for two rRNAs, 22 tRNAs, six identified proteins [cytochrome b, cytochrome c oxidase subunits I, II, and III (COI-III), and ATPase subunits 6 and 8] and seven presumptive proteins (URF1-6 and URF4L). Replication originates within a region of 1077 nucleotides that is 92.8% A + T and lacks any open reading frame larger than 123 nucleotides. An equivalent to the sequence found in all mammalian mtCDNAs that is associated with initiation of second-strand DNA synthesis is not present in D. yakuba mtDNA. Introns are absent from D. yakuba mitochondrial genes and there are few (0-31) intergenic nucleotides. The genes found in D. yakuba and mammalian mtDNAs are the same, but there are differences in their arrangement and in the relative proportions of the complementary strands of the molecule that serve as templates for transcription. Although the D. yakuba small and large mitochondrial rRNA genes are exceptionally low in G and C and are shorter than any other metazoan rRNA genes reported, they can be folded into secondary structures remarkably similar to the secondary structures proposed for mammalian mitochondrial rRNAs. D. yakuba mitochondrial tRNA genes, like their mammalian counterparts, are more variable in sequence than nonorganelle tRNAs. In mitochondrial protein genes ATG, ATT, ATA, and in one case (COI) ATAA appear to be used as translation initiation codons. The only termination codon found in these genes is TAA. In the D. yakuba mitochondrial genetic code, AGA, ATA, and TGA specify serine, isoleucine, and tryptophan, respectively. Fifty-nine types of sense condon are used in the D. yakuba mitochondrial protein genes, but 93.8% of all codons end in A or T. Codon-anticodon interactions may include both G-A and C-A pairing in the wobble position. Evidence is summarized that supports the hypothesis that A and T nucleotides are favored at all locations in the D. yakuba mtDNA molecule where these nucleotides are compatible with function.

Distinct impairments were found in membranes of rat myocardium and liver tissue in animals kept on food, which was deficient in retinol, tocopherol, ascorbic acid and essential amino acids lysine, methionine and threonine. Deficiency in these dietary components led to a decrease in content of phosphatidyl ethanolamine and phosphatidyl serine and in activity of total ATPase and Ca2+-ATPase in membranes of myocardial sarcoplasmic reticulum as well as to decrease Na+, K+-ATPase activity in liver plasmatic membrane.

Myosin from chicken intestinal brush borders is phosphorylated on its heavy chains at threonine by a kinase isolated from brush borders. In contrast to other heavy chain kinases, the brush border kinase activity is dependent on calcium and calmodulin. The partially purified preparation also phosphorylated myosin on its light chains at serine, but in a calmodulin-independent manner. Phosphorylation of the light chains in the absence of calmodulin or both heavy and light chains in the presence of calmodulin activated its actin-activated ATPase activity about 10-fold, to about 50 nmol/min per mg.

Smooth muscle heavy meromyosin (HMM) is phosphorylated by the Ca2+-activated phospholipid-dependent protein kinase, i.e. protein kinase C, at three sites on each 20,000-dalton light chain. Phosphorylation of three sites also is observed with isolated 20,000-dalton light chain and HMM subfragment 1. The phosphorylation sites are serine 1, serine 2, and threonine 9. Threonine is phosphorylated most rapidly followed by either serine 1 or 2. Phosphorylation of the third site occurs only on prolonged incubation. Phosphorylation is a random process. HMM phosphorylated at two sites per light chain by protein kinase C can be dephosphorylated, as shown using two phosphatase preparations. Increasing levels of phosphorylation of HMM by protein kinase C causes a progressive inhibition of the subsequent rate of phosphorylation of serine 19 by myosin light chain kinase and causes a progressive inhibition of actin-activated ATPase activity of HMM, prephosphorylated by myosin light chain kinase. Inhibition of ATPase activity is due to a decreased affinity of HMM for actin rather than a change in Vmax. Previous results with HMM and protein kinase C (Nishikawa, M., Sellers, J. R., Adelstein, R. S., and Hidaka, H. (1984) J. Biol. Chem. 259, 8808-8814) examined effects induced by phosphorylation of the threonine residues. Our results confirm these and consider also the influence of higher levels of phosphorylation by protein kinase C.

Many types of human cells cultured in vitro are generally semipermissive for simian virus 40 (SV40) replication. Consequently, subpopulations of stably transformed human cells often carry free viral DNA, which is presumed to arise via spontaneous excision from an integrated DNA template. Stably transformed human cell lines that do not have detectable free DNA are therefore likely to harbor harbor mutant viral genomes incapable of excision and replication, or these cells may synthesize variant cellular proteins necessary for viral replication. We examined four such cell lines and conclude that for the three lines SV80, GM638, and GM639, the cells did indeed harbor spontaneous T-antigen mutants. For the SV80 line, marker rescue (determined by a plaque assay) and DNA sequence analysis of cloned DNA showed that a single point mutation converting serine 147 to asparagine was the cause of the mutation. Similarly, a point mutation converting leucine 457 to methionine for the GM638 mutant T allele was found. Moreover, the SV80 line maintained its permissivity for SV40 DNA replication but did not complement the SV40 tsA209 mutant at its nonpermissive temperature. The cloned SV80 T-antigen allele, though replication incompetent, maintained its ability to transform rodent cells at wild-type efficiencies. A compilation of spontaneously occurring SV40 mutations which cannot replicate but can transform shows that these mutations tend to cluster in two regions of the T-antigen gene, one ascribed to the site-specific DNA-binding ability of the protein, and the other to the ATPase activity which is linked to its helicase activity.

Proline porter II is rapidly activated when nongrowing bacteria are subjected to a hyperosmotic shift (Grothe, S., Krogsrud, R. L., McClellan, D. J., Milner, J. L., and Wood, J. M. (1986) J. Bacteriol. 166, 253-259). Proline porter II was active in membrane vesicles prepared from bacteria grown under optimal conditions, nutritional stress, or osmotic stress. That activity was: (i) dependent on the presence of the energy sources phenazine methosulphate plus ascorbate or D-lactate; (ii) observed only when a hyperosmotic shift accompanied the transport measurement; (iii) inhibited by glycine betaine in a manner analogous to that observed in whole cells; and (iv) eliminated by lesions in proP. Membrane vesicles were able to transport serine but not glutamine and serine transport was reduced by the hyperosmotic shift. In whole cells, proline porter II activity was supported by glucose and by D-lactate in a strain defective for proline porters I and III and the F1F0-ATPase. Glucose energized proline uptake was eliminated by carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone and KCN as was serine uptake. These results suggested that proline porter II was respiration-dependent and probably ion-linked. Activation of proline porter II in whole cells by sucrose or NaCl was sustained over 30 min, whereas activation by glycerol was transient. Proline porter II was activated by NaCl and sucrose with a half-time of approximately 1 min in both whole cells and membrane vesicles. Thus, activation of proline porter II was reversible. It occurred at a rate comparable to that of K+ influx and much more rapid than the genetic regulatory responses that follow a hyperosmotic shift.

Out of four diastereoisomers of 3,4-dihydroxyphenylserine (DOPS), L-threo- and L-erythro-isomer were found to be taken up into human brain synaptosomes. The uptake of L-threo-DOPS was dependent on the temperature and sensitive to the metabolic inhibitors. The L-threo-DOPS uptake proved to be saturable and carrier-mediated transport with two different kinetic characteristics; a high-affinity and low-capacity and a low-affinity and high-capacity system. The apparent Km values of these two systems were obtained to be 28.6 microM and 2.47 mM, respectively. The high-affinity transport was inhibited by glycine, L-tyrosine, L-proline, L-serine, L-Dopa, L-tryptophan, and L-phenylalanine. The inhibition by L-tyrosine was competitive in regard to L-threo-DOPS. The L-threo-DOPS uptake was inhibited by 2,4-dinitrophenol, sodium cyanide and other uncouplers of oxidative phosphorylation and by ouabain, an inhibitor of Na+, K+-ATPase, indicating that the uptake is coupled to ATP hydrolysis. On the other hand, L-threo-DOPS uptake by the low-affinity system was not inhibited by metabolic inhibitors, indicating that it may be facilitated diffusion common to high concentrations of L-amino acids.

The calcium-dependent, energy-independent incorporations of 14C-labeled bases, choline, ethanolamine, and serine, into their corresponding membrane phospholipids, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, and phosphatidylserine, were compared in microsomes and in subcellular fractions prepared from a lysed crude mitochondrial (P2) pellet of whole rat brain. When activities were measured in the presence of an extracellular (1.25 mM) concentration of Ca2+, recovered activities were highest in the microsomal fraction, although substantial activity remained associated with the P2 homogenate even after repeated washing of the pellet. When this washed P2 homogenate was subfractionated, enrichment of all three exchange activities was obtained only in a fraction that was fivefold enriched over the homogenate and sevenfold enriched over the microsomal fraction in Na+, K+-ATPase, a plasma membrane marker. This strongly suggests that the base-exchange enzymes are normal constituents of synaptosomal plasma membranes. The three exchange activities were measured in synaptosomes prepared from whole rat brain in the presence of various substrate (base) concentrations, and kinetic constants were calculated. The Vmax values for choline, ethanolamine, and serine exchange were, respectively, 1.27 +/- 0.09, 1.60 +/- 0.17, and 0.56 +/- 0.06 nmol/mg of protein/h; the respective Km (apparent) values were 241 +/- 29, 65 +/- 18, and 77 +/- 22 microM. Endogenous levels of the three bases, choline, ethanolamine, and serine, in whole (microwaved) rat brains were 20 +/- 8, 78 +/- 28, and 639 +/- 106 nmol, respectively. That ethanolamine and serine incorporations had lower Km values than choline incorporation suggests that these bases are preferentially incorporated into their respective phospholipids.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Myosin subfragment 1 (S1) can be specifically photomodified at the active site without polypeptide chain cleavage by irradiating the stable MgADP-orthovanadate-S1 complex with UV light above 300 nm [Grammer, J. C., Cremo, C. R., & Yount, R. G. (1988) Biochemistry (preceding paper in this issue)]. Here, the UV spectral properties of photomodified S1 were used to determine the nature and location of the photomodified residue(s) within S1. By comparison of the unusual pH dependence of the UV absorption spectrum of the photomodified S1 to that of the S1-MgADP-Vi complex as a control, the photomodified residue(s) was (were) localized to the 23-kDa NH2-terminal tryptic peptide of the heavy chain. NaBH4 reduced the photomodified S1, but not the control, to regenerate the original spectral properties and ATPase activities of the unmodified S1. Amino acid analysis of photomodified S1 reduced with NaB3H4 gave only [3H]serine, suggesting the hydroxyl group of serine had been oxidized to a "serine aldehyde". The pH dependence of the absorption spectrum of the photomodified enzyme can be explained by an equilibrium between a chromophoric enolate anion of the serine aldehyde (favored in base) and less chromophoric keto and enol forms (favored in acid). The oxidized serine(s) was (were) shown to be directly involved with the vanadate-dependent photocleavage of the S1 heavy chain previously described by Grammer et al. (1988). This serine(s) is (are) likely to be important to the binding and hydrolysis of the gamma-PO4 of ATP at the active site of S1.
