As noted previously, in N1E-115 neuroblastoma cells, carbamylcholine, a muscarinic cholinergic agonist, increased cGMP over 15-fold and decreased basal and prostaglandin E1 (PGE1)-stimulated cAMP content. In contrast to the stimulatory effects of PGE1 on cAMP, which were immediate, the carbamylcholine-induced decrease in basal and PGE1-stimulated cAMP exhibited a delay. The delay in carbamylcholine inhibition was independent of the extent of adenylate cyclase activation. Although basal cAMP content was suppressed within 30 sec after addition of carbamylcholine, inhibition was not maximal for at least 2 min following agonist addition; the delay was similar in cells exposed to PGE1 for 10 min prior to carbamylcholine but could be eliminated by incubation of the cells with muscarinic cholinergic agonist for 5 min prior to addition of prostaglandin. N1E-115 neuroblastoma cells possess a 41,000-Da membrane protein believed to be a component of the inhibitory GTP-binding protein of adenylate cyclase that is ADP ribosylated by pertussis toxin. Incubation of the cells with pertussis toxin prior to the addition of carbamylcholine reduced the maximal extent of inhibition of cAMP content and prevented the [32P]ADP-ribosylation of a 41,000-Da protein by toxin and [32P]NAD in membrane preparations from these cells. Incubation of cells with pertussis toxin, however, did not significantly alter the dose-response curve for carbamylcholine effects on cGMP. Even high concentrations of carbamylcholine, effective in stimulating cGMP, had minimal effects on cAMP content in toxin-treated cells; thus, ADP-ribosylation of Gi converts the adenylate cyclase but not the guanylate cyclase system to an agonist-insensitive state.

Guanine nucleotide-dependent modulation of agonist binding to the beta-receptor reflects coupling of the receptor to the nucleotide regulatory protein. Similarly, guanine nucleotide-dependent stimulation of adenylate cyclase can be used as an index of coupling between the regulatory protein and the catalytic unit of the cyclase. Using both approaches we have studied coupling in the beta-adrenergic receptor-adenylate cyclase system in rabbit liver during neonatal development. With [3H]dihydroalprenolol as ligand, the Bmax was relatively unchanged (200-300 fmol/mg of protein) between birth and end of day 1 and was similar to adult values. Guanyl-5'-yl imidodiphosphate-dependent shift in agonist (l-isoproterenol) competition curves was biphasic, decreasing from 10-fold in membranes isolated from animals at term to about 6-fold in membranes from 6-h-old neonates, and increasing progressively in older animals to a maximal measurable value of 42-fold in the adult. The ability of guanyl-5'-yl imidodiphosphate, GTP, GTP plus isoproterenol, NaF, or forskolin to activate adenylate cyclase was also biphasic and age-dependent. With Mn2+ the measured activity was not at any time greater than the activity at term. Pretreatment of membranes with cholera toxin resulted in differential levels of enhancement of adenylate cyclase activity wherein much lower enhancement was observed in membranes from neonatal animals. With [32P]NAD as substrate, cholera toxin-catalyzed ADP-ribosylation of membranes indicated development-dependent accumulation of Ns peptides. From these results we suggest that there is a decreased efficiency in the coupling of the beta-adrenergic receptor to hepatic adenylate cyclase in early neonatal life. The molecular basis for the biphasic nature of the coupling is presently unclear.

Influences of alpha 2-adrenoceptor stimulation on adenylate cyclase activity were investigated in cerebral cortical membranes of rats. Pretreatment of the membranes with islet-activating protein and NAD resulted in a significant increase in basal activity as well as in GTP- or forskolin/GTP-induced elevation of adenylate cyclase activity. Strong activation of adenylate cyclase was also caused in membranes pretreated with cholera toxin together with NAD in comparison to that in control membranes, suggesting that adenylate cyclase activity is perhaps regulated by stimulatory and inhibitory GTP binding regulatory protein existing in synaptic membranes. In addition, adrenaline (with propranolol) or clonidine significantly reduced adenylate cyclase activity stimulated by pretreatment with forskolin and GTP. The inhibitory effects of adrenaline were also observed in membranes pretreated with cholera toxin and NAD. Moreover, the inhibition by adrenaline or clonidine was completely abolished by treatment with (a) yohimbine or (b) islet-activating protein and NAD. It is suggested that alpha 2-receptor stimulation causes inhibitory influences on adenylate cyclase activity mediated by the inhibitory GTP binding regulatory protein in synaptic membranes of rat cerebral cortex.

The Ha-ras protooncogene product p21, which may be involved in control of cellular growth, is a membrane protein that binds guanine nucleotides and hydrolyzes GTP. p21 GTPase activity is stimulated by lysophosphatidylcholine; a delay in activation was observed unless p21 was incubated with the phospholipid prior to assay. Maximal activation by the phospholipid was observed over a narrow concentration range; the presence in the assay mixture of lysophosphatidylcholine at concentrations above this optimum markedly inhibited p21 GTPase. GTP hydrolysis was also stimulated, but to a lesser degree, by phosphatidylcholine. Phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylserine did not significantly enhance GTPase activity. The stimulatory effect of phospholipid was mimicked, in part, by nonionic detergents. p21 may be related to other GTPases, the regulatory guanine nucleotide-binding G proteins of the hormone-sensitive adenylate cyclase complex and transducin of the retinal light-activated phosphodiesterase system. The G proteins and transducin are heterotrimers; the alpha subunits possess GTPase activity and the beta gamma subunit complex along with agonist-receptor complex or light-activated rhodopsin enhance GTP hydrolysis. p21 GTPase activity was slightly stimulated by rhodopsin, but, in contrast to the GTPase activity of transducin, stimulation was not light-dependent. GTP hydrolysis was enhanced somewhat by beta gamma subunit complex in the absence, but not in the presence, of rhodopsin. Like the G proteins and transducin, activity of p21 was altered by ADP-ribosylation. Modification of p21 catalyzed by an NAD: arginine ADP-ribosyltransferase purified from turkey erythrocytes decreased both GTPase activity and guanine nucleotide binding activity.

Regulation of adenylate cyclase coincident with transformation of chicken embryo fibroblasts by Rous sarcoma virus is manifest as a 10-50% decrease in basal, Mg2+-, and forskolin-stimulated activities; activities elicited by fluoride and guanosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) are unaltered. The level of the catalytic component of adenylate cyclase, assessed with activated stimulatory guanine nucleotide-binding protein (Gs), increases approximately 1.5-fold. The level of the beta subunit common to Gs and the inhibitory regulatory protein assessed by enzyme-linked immunotransfer blotting, increases 2.7-fold. The isoelectric behavior of the beta subunit is unaltered. The amount of radiolabel incorporated into the alpha subunit of Gs (Mr = 45,000) upon incubation of membranes with 32P-labeled NAD and cholera toxin increases 3-fold upon transformation. Detergent extracts prepared from membranes of untransformed and transformed fibroblasts nevertheless exhibit equivalent abilities to reconstitute fluoride-stimulated activities to membranes of the cyc-variant of mouse S49 lymphoma cells. Islet-activating protein catalyzes incorporation of radiolabel from 32P-labeled NAD into 39,000- and 41,000-dalton proteins; the extent of radiolabel incorporation does not change upon transformation. Modest alterations in the isoelectric behaviors of substrates for cholera toxin and islet-activating protein occur.

Islet-activating protein (IAP, a Bordetella pertussis toxin) was employed to test the hypothesis that the inhibitory GTP-binding regulatory protein of adenylate cyclase (Ni) mediates GTP effects on the binding of Ca2+-mobilizing hormones to liver plasma membranes and is involved in calcium mobilization stimulated by these agonists. IAP added to normal liver plasma membranes catalyzed the incorporation of radioactivity from [32P]NAD into a 41,000-Da peptide (presumably the alpha-subunit of Ni). However, no such incorporation was observed in liver membranes prepared from rats 24 hr after intraperitoneal injection of IAP. Angiotensin II attenuated glucagon-stimulated increases in cAMP in hepatocytes prepared from control but not IAP-treated rats. In contrast, following IAP treatment, no changes were observed in the ability of glucagon, vasopressin, angiotensin II, or epinephrine to activate phosphorylase; nor did this treatment alter [3H]vasopressin binding or epinephrine displacement of [3H]prazosin binding. However, IAP treatment decreased [3H]angiotensin II binding affinity when studies were performed in the absence but not the presence of 5'-guanylylimidodiphosphate (GppNHp). This shift was small and represented only 5-8% of the shift in apparent Kd elicited by GppNHp in untreated membranes. In vitro studies with IAP confirmed the results of the radioligand binding studies using in vivo IAP treatment. The effects of NaCl on [3H]angiotensin II binding were also tested but were not typical of other receptors which couple to Ni. The data suggest that, although a small population of hepatic angiotensin II receptors couple to Ni and attenuate glucagon-stimulated increases in cAMP, vasopressin, alpha 1-adrenergic, and the majority of angiotensin II receptors do not interact significantly with Ni. Thus, although there is evidence that agonist-induced Ca2+ mobilization requires a GTP-binding regulatory protein, this protein does not appear to be Ni in rat liver.

Treatment of ROS 17/2.8 cells with dexamethasone (dex) increases (-)isoproterenol (ISO)-, PTH-, cholera toxin-, guanine nucleotide-, NaF-, and forskolin-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity. Enhanced hormone stimulation was first apparent 12 h after dex addition. (-)-[3H]Dihydroalprenolol binding, displaceable by ISO, increased up to 2-fold in dex-treated cells. This effect depended on protein synthesis and closely paralleled the extent and time course of the increase in adenylate cyclase stimulation. In dex-treated cells there was also an increase in the maximum velocity of guanyl-5'-yl imidodiphosphate-stimulated adenylate cyclase, a decrease in the lag time for guanyl-5'-yl imidodiphosphate enzyme activation in the presence of ISO from 3 to 1 min, increased stimulation of adenylate cyclase by cholera toxin, and increased labeling of 47,000 and 42,000 mol wt proteins by [32P]NAD in the presence of cholera toxin. [32P]NAD ribosylation in the presence of pertussis toxin resulted in the labeling of 40,000 mol wt protein, which was also increased by 20-50% in dex-treated cells. However, pertussis toxin treatment did not augment or reduce the effect on hormone stimulation, although it increased the cAMP response to PTH and (-)ISO. These findings suggest that dex increases (-)ISO stimulation of adenylate cyclase in ROS 17/2.8 cells by jointly increasing the number of hormone receptors and the abundance of Gs, the guanine nucleotide binding regulatory protein.

The characterization of [3H]clonidine binding and effects of GTP, forskolin, islet-activating protein (IAP) and cholera toxin on adenylate cyclase activity were investigated in cerebral cortical membranes from 70-day-old and 2-year-old rats. Neither Kd nor Bmax values in [3H]clonidine binding were changed between day 70 and year 2. The activation of adenylate cyclase by forskolin was significantly higher in senescent than in adult animals. The inhibitory effect of adrenaline, which was completely abolished by the pretreatment with IAP/NAD on forskolin/GTP-stimulated cyclase activity, was low in senescent rats compared to that in adult ones. The stimulatory effect of cholera toxin/NAD was also low at the senescent stage compared to that at the adult stage. It is suggested that ligand binding affinity and the density in alpha 2-adrenoceptors do not change between day 70 and year 2 but that GTP binding and/or coupling activity of inhibitory as well as stimulatory GTP binding regulatory protein to catalytic units decrease in synaptic membranes of 2-year-old compared to those of 70-day-old rat brain.

The effect of pertussis toxin treatment was studied on the inhibitory effect of atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) on adenylate cyclase activity in rat aorta. The incubation of rat aorta washed particles with pertussis toxin and [alpha-32P]NAD resulted in the ADP-ribosylation of a single 40-kDa protein. In addition, pertussis toxin treatment enhanced guanosine 5'-O-(thiotriphosphate) and isoproterenol-stimulated adenylate cyclase activities and attenuated the ANF-mediated inhibition of basal, isoproterenol-, and forskolin-stimulated adenylate cyclase activities. These data suggest that ANF receptors are coupled to adenylate cyclase through inhibitory guanine nucleotide regulatory protein.

Possible coupling of bovine adrenal medullary opioid receptors to islet-activating protein (IAP, pertussis toxin)-sensitive GTP-binding proteins was investigated by studying effects of guanyl-5'-yl imidodiphosphate (Gpp(NH)p) and IAP treatment of membranes on opioid binding. Gpp(NH)p inhibited [3H]D-Ala2-D-Leu5-enkephalin ([3H]DADLE) binding by increasing the dissociation constant of [3H]DADLE and membranes, and enhanced slightly [3H]diprenorphine binding. IAP treatment of membranes reduced [3H]DADLE binding and abolished almost completely the Gpp(NH)p inhibition of [3H]DADLE binding. Treatment of membranes with IAP and [32P]NAD resulted in radio-labeling of membrane proteins of approximately 39,000 dalton. DADLE inhibited adenylate cyclase activity in rat brain caudate nucleus. However, DADLE, beta-endorphin, levorphanol and dynorphin A(1-13) did not show any significant inhibitory action on bovine adrenal medullary adenylate cyclase activity. These results suggest that bovine adrenal medullary opioid (DADLE) receptors are linked to IAP-sensitive GTP-binding proteins which are not directly coupled to adenylate cyclase.
