Differential sensitivity of protein kinase C isozymes to phospholipid-induced inactivation 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Interactions of types I, II, and III protein kinase C (PKC) with phospholipids were investigated by following the changes in protein kinase activity and phorbol ester binding. The acidic phospholipids such as phosphatidylserine (PS), phosphatidic acid, phosphatidyl-glycerol, and cardiolipin, which are activators of PKC in the assay of protein phosphorylation, could differentially inactivate PKC I, II, and III during preincubation in the absence of divalent cation. The phospholipid-induced inactivation of PKC was concentration and time dependent and only affected the kinase activity without influencing phorbol ester binding. PKC I was the most susceptible to the phospholipid-induced inactivation, and PKC III was the least. The IC50 values of PS for PKC I, II, and III were 5, 45, and greater than 120 microM, respectively. Addition of divalent cation such as Ca2+ or Mg2+ suppressed the phospholipid-induced inactivation of PKC. In the absence of divalent cation, PKC I, II, and III all formed complexes with PS vesicles, although to a slightly different degree, as analyzed by molecule sieve chromatography. [3H]Phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate binding for PKC I, II, and III was recovered after chromatography; however, the kinase activities of all these enzymes were greatly reduced. In the presence of Ca2+, all three PKCs formed complexes with PS vesicles, and both the kinase and phorbol ester-binding activities of PKC II and III were recovered following chromatography. Under the same conditions, the phorbol ester-binding activity of PKC I was also recovered, but the kinase activity was not. The phospholipid-induced inactivation of PKC apparently results from a direct interaction of phospholipid with the catalytic domain of PKC; this interaction can be suppressed by divalent cations. In the presence of divalent cations, PS interacted preferentially with the regulatory domain of PKC and resulted in the activation of the kinase. 相似文献

The recent discovery of Epac, a novel cAMP receptor protein, opens up a new dimension in studying cAMP-mediated cell signaling. It is conceivable that many of the cAMP functions previously attributed to cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) are in fact also Epac-dependent. The finding of an additional intracellular cAMP receptor provides an opportunity to further dissect the divergent roles that cAMP exerts in different cell types. In this study, we probed cross-talk between cAMP signaling and the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/PKB pathways. Specifically, we examined the modulatory effects of cAMP on PKB activity by monitoring the specific roles that Epac and PKA play individually in regulating PKB activity. Our study suggests a complex regulatory scheme in which Epac and PKA mediate the opposing effects of cAMP on PKB regulation. Activation of Epac leads to a phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-dependent PKB activation, while stimulation of PKA inhibits PKB activity. Furthermore, activation of PKB by Epac requires the proper subcellular targeting of Epac. The opposing effects of Epac and PKA on PKB activation provide a potential mechanism for the cell type-specific differential effects of cAMP. It is proposed that the net outcome of cAMP signaling is dependent upon the dynamic abundance and distribution of intracellular Epac and PKA. 相似文献

Hormonal regulation of glycogen synthase: Insulin decreases protein kinase sensitivity to cyclic AMP
Ronald J. Walkenbach Richard Hazen Joseph Larner 《Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA)/General Subjects》1980,629(3):421-430
Rat hemidiaphragms incubated with epinephrine exhibited increases in cyclic AMP content and protein kinase activity which were proportional to the logarithm of the hormone concentration from 0.1–2 μM. The fraction of glycogen synthase made independent of glucose-6-P for activity (%I) decreased concomitantly, but correlated only with epinephrine concentrations up to 0.2 μM. Insulin (0–100 mU/ml) increased glycogen synthase %I in a dose-dependent manner with no change in cyclic AMP concentration. Protein kinase activity increased slightly at the lowest insulin concentration, then decreased slightly as glycogen synthase %I increased. Insulin was without effect when administered with a supramaximal dose of epinephrine. In the presence of submaximal epinephrine, insulin produced a dose-dependent increase in glycogen synthase %I which correlated with a decrease in protein kinase activity, without changing cyclic AMP. Insulin had no effect on the increases in cyclic AMP produced by varying levels of epinephrine. However, the activation of protein kinase activity by endogenous cyclic AMP was inhibited in the presence of insulin. The glycogen synthase %I response to epinephrine also was less sensitive in the presence of insulin. Insulin antagonizes the activation of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase by epinephrine without altering cyclic AMP levels. 相似文献

Differential down-regulation of protein kinase C isozymes 总被引:23,自引:0,他引:23

Types I, II, and III protein kinase C have been shown to be products of, respectively, gamma, beta, and alpha genes of this enzyme family (Huang, F. L., Yoshida, Y., Nakabayashi, H., Knopf, J. L., Young, W. S., III, and Huang, K.-P. (1987) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 149, 946-952). Incubation of the highly purified rat brain protein kinase C isozymes with trypsin (kinase/trypsin (w/w) = 100) under identical conditions results in a preferential degradation of types I and II enzymes, whereas the type III enzyme was relatively resistant to tryptic proteolysis. Degradation of the type III enzyme by trypsin could be facilitated with the addition of Ca2+, phosphatidylserine, and dioleoylglycerol; none of these components alone was effective. Limited proteolysis of the three protein kinase C isozymes generated distinctive fragments for each isozyme, indicating that each isozyme has different trypsin-sensitive sites. Tryptic digestion of the type III protein kinase C was used as a model to determine the effects of various modulators on protein kinase C degradation. While Ca2+ and phosphatidylserine together were sufficient to convert the type III protein kinase C from a trypsin-insensitive to a -sensitive form, addition of dioleoylglycerol greatly reduced the Ca2+ requirement for such a conversion. Among the various phospholipids tested, in the presence of either dioleoylglycerol or phorbol ester, phosphatidylserine, cardiolipin, and phosphatidic acid were the most effective, and phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine were the least effective in supporting the digestion of type III protein kinase. Other acidic phospholipids, such as lysophosphatidylserine and phosphatidylinositol, were also effective in supporting the degradation in the presence of phorbol ester but not in the presence of dioleoylglycerol. The relevance of these proteolytic reactions to physiological responses was assessed with phorbol ester on rat basophilic leukemia RBL-2H3 cells, which contained both types II and III protein kinase C. Immunoblot analysis with the isozyme-specific antibodies revealed that phorbol ester induced a faster degradation of type II than that of type III isozyme in these cells. The results demonstrate that the various protein kinase C isozymes have different susceptibilities to proteolysis in vitro, when tested with trypsin, as well as to endogenous proteases in intact cells. 相似文献

Differential sensitivity of fibroblasts to epidermal growth factor is related to cyclic AMP concentration 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
The differential sensitivity of various cell lines to the mitogenic effects of epidermal growth factor (EGF) was investigated. Two lines of evidence suggest that cellular capacity to respond proliferatively to EGF is related to intracellular cyclic AMP concentration. First, the ability of three density-arrested cell lines to synthesize DNA in response to EGF was directly proportional to the basal cyclic AMP level of the cells at quiescence. Second, treatment of cultures with various agents known to promote intracellular cyclic AMP accumulation increased the sensitivity of all three cell lines to EGF. The mechanism whereby cyclic AMP modulates EGF responsiveness is not known; cholera toxin did not affect the cellular capacity to bind or internalize and process EGF. Although platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) had no effect on cyclic AMP levels, transient treatment of quiescent cultures with this polypeptide also enhanced EGF sensitivity. In agreement with previous data and in contrast to cholera toxin, PDGF induced the down-regulation of EGF receptors in the three cell lines. These data suggest that the capacity of various cell types to respond to EGF is subject to both intracellular regulation by cyclic AMP and extracellular modulation by factors such as PDGF which can affect EGF receptor activity. 相似文献

We have studied the compartmentation of cyclic AMP action in purified ventricular cardiomyocytes prepared by collagenase perfusion of adult rabbit hearts. Incubation of purified adult myocytes with 1 microM isoproterenol causes rapid accumulation of intracellular cyclic AMP in both soluble (2.3 leads to 7.7 pmol/ mg of protein) and particulate (3.0 leads to 9.2) fractions of cell homogenates (3000 X g for 5 min), increases in the total activity and activity ratio of soluble cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (0.21 leads to 0.66), a decrease in protein kinase activity remaining in the particulate fraction (47 leads to 30%), and an increase in the activity ratio of glycogen phosphorylase (0.15 leads to 0.47). Incubation of myocytes with 10 microM prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) leads to a comparable increase in soluble cyclic AMP (2.3 leads to 5.8 pmol/mg of protein) and activation of soluble cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (0.21 leads to 0.39) but does not result in any change in cAMP or protein kinase in the particulate fraction and fails to cause an activation of glycogen phosphorylase. PGE1 does not inhibit the effects of isoproterenol; when myocytes are incubated with both isoproterenol and PGE1, the accumulation of cyclic AMP, activation of cAMP-dependent protein kinase and phosphorylase b leads to a conversion are equal to that achieved with isoproterenol alone. Perturbation of cellular calcium using the ionophore A23187, verapamil, or high or low extracellular calcium did not alter the ability of isoproterenol to cause activation of particulate cAMP-dependent protein kinase or influence the inability of PGE1 to do so. Activation of adenylate cyclase by forskolin (30 microM) caused immediate activation of both soluble and particulate cAMP-dependent protein kinase leading to rapid activation of phosphorylase. We conclude that the hormonally specific compartmentation of cyclic AMP and cAMP-dependent protein kinase that occurs in intact heart (Hayes, J. S., Brunton, L. L., Brown, J. H., Reese, J. B., and Mayer, S. E. (1979) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 76, 1570-1574) is not explained on the basis of cellular heterogeneity but has a subcellular basis within the cardiomyocyte. 相似文献

A cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase was found to appear during the time course of development of . No cyclic AMP dependency was observed at any stage of development in crude 110,000 X G soluble extracts. After partial purification, however, extracts from post-aggregation stages contained enzyme that was activated up to 6-fold by cyclic AMP, whereas protein kinase from earlier stages was not affected by cyclic AMP. Likewise, cyclic AMP binding activity increased from the aggregation to the slug stage of development. Approximately one-half of the total cyclic AMP binding activity co-purified with the cyclic AMP dependent protein kinase. The enzyme from showed similarities to mammalian protein kinases with respect to its kinetic properties but differed in its behavior on ion-exchange chromatography. 相似文献

Differential distribution of competence for panplacodal and neural crest induction to non-neural and neural ectoderm 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Pieper M Ahrens K Rink E Peter A Schlosser G 《Development (Cambridge, England)》2012,139(6):1175-1187
It is still controversial whether cranial placodes and neural crest cells arise from a common precursor at the neural plate border or whether placodes arise from non-neural ectoderm and neural crest from neural ectoderm. Using tissue grafting in embryos of Xenopus laevis, we show here that the competence for induction of neural plate, neural plate border and neural crest markers is confined to neural ectoderm, whereas competence for induction of panplacodal markers is confined to non-neural ectoderm. This differential distribution of competence is established during gastrulation paralleling the dorsal restriction of neural competence. We further show that Dlx3 and GATA2 are required cell-autonomously for panplacodal and epidermal marker expression in the non-neural ectoderm, while ectopic expression of Dlx3 or GATA2 in the neural plate suppresses neural plate, border and crest markers. Overexpression of Dlx3 (but not GATA2) in the neural plate is sufficient to induce different non-neural markers in a signaling-dependent manner, with epidermal markers being induced in the presence, and panplacodal markers in the absence, of BMP signaling. Taken together, these findings demonstrate a non-neural versus neural origin of placodes and neural crest, respectively, strongly implicate Dlx3 in the regulation of non-neural competence, and show that GATA2 contributes to non-neural competence but is not sufficient to promote it ectopically. 相似文献

Differential expression of protein kinase C isozymes and erythroleukemia cell differentiation 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Hexamethylene bisacetamide (HMBA) and other polar/apolar chemical agents are potent inducers of erythroid differentiation in murine erythroleukemia cells (MELC), as well as other transformed cell lines. Although the mechanism of action of HMBA is not yet known, evidence has been obtained that protein kinase C (PKC) plays a role in this process. In this study we provide further evidence that establishes this relationship. MELC contain two principal PKC activities, PKC beta and PKC alpha. MELC variants, selected for resistance to vincristine (VC), which display acceleration of their rates of induced differentiation, are enriched in PKC beta activity. When MELC are exposed to HMBA there is a fall in PKC activity, largely accounted for by a decline in PKC beta. This decline in PKC activity is faster in the VC-resistant, rapidly differentiating MELC. We previously demonstrated that VC-resistant MELC are resistant to the inhibition of differentiation by the phorbol ester, phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA). In both VC-sensitive and -resistant MELC, PMA causes rapid membrane translocation and then a decline in PKC activity, accompanied by a generation of a Ca2+- and phospholipid-independent protein kinase activity. In VC/PMA-resistant variants, this Ca2+/phospholipid-independent protein kinase activity persists considerably longer than in the VC-sensitive variants. This correlates with the resistance to PMA and provides additional evidence for a role for the Ca2+/phospholipid-independent protein kinase activity during induced differentiation. 相似文献

We report the immunohistochemical localization of protein kinase C isozymes (types I, II, and III) in the rabbit retina using the monospecific monoclonal antibodies MC-1a, MC-2a, and MC-3a. Using immunoblot analysis of partially purified protein kinase C preparations of rabbit retina, types II and III isozymes alone were detected. The activity of type III was the stronger. By light microscopic immunohistochemical analysis, retinal neurons were negative for type I and positive for type II and type III isozymes. Type II was more diffusely distributed through the retinal layers, but was distinctive in ganglion cells, bipolar cells, and outer segments. The immunoreactivity was stronger for type III isozyme, and it was observed in mop (rod) bipolar cells and amacrine cells. By using immunoelectron microscopy, the cytoplasm of the cell body, the axon, and dendrites of the mop bipolar cells were strongly immunoreactive for type III. The so-called rod bipolar cells were for the first time seen to form synapses with rod photoreceptor cells. These differential localizations of respective isozymes in retinal neurons suggest that each isozyme has a different site of function in each neuron. 相似文献

Vanadium salts influence the activities of a number of mammalian enzymes in vitro but the mechanisms by which low concentrations
of vanadium ameliorate the effects of diabetes in vivo remain poorly understood. The hypothesis that vanadium compounds act
by inhibiting protein tyrosine phosphatases has attracted most support. The studies described here further evaluate the possibility
that vanadyl sulfate trihydrate (VS) can also inhibit 3′,5′-cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) dependent protein kinase
(PKA). Using conventional assay conditions, VS inhibited PKA only at high concentrations (IC50>400 μM); however, PKA inhibition was seen at dramatically lower concentrations of VS (IC50<10 μM) when sequestration of vanadyl ions was minimized. Vanadyl appears to be the effective PKA inhibitor because sodium
orthovanadate did not inhibit PKA and inhibition by vanadyl was abolished by potential chelators such as ethylenediaminetetraacetic
acid or glycyl peptides. PKA inhibition by vanadyl appears to be mixed rather than strictly competitive or uncompetitive and
may replicate the inhibitory effects of high concentrations of Mg2+. The effect of vanadyl on PKA provides a possible explanation for the effects of vanadium salts on fat tissue lipolysis and
perhaps on other aspects of energy metabolism that are controlled by cAMP-dependent mechanisms. Considering the high degree
of conservation of the active sites of protein kinases, vanadyl may also influence other members of this large protein family.

Control of platelet protein kinase C activation by cyclic AMP 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Experiments were performed to elucidate the role of adenosine 3': 5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) in the control of platelet protein kinase C (PKC) activation. Platelet aggregation and secretion in response to 4 beta-phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) or 1-oleoyl-2-acetylglycerol (OAG) were inhibited by dibutyryl cAMP in a dose-dependent manner. Inhibition of these functional activities paralleled a decrease in the PMA-induced phosphorylation of the Mr 47,000 substrate (p47) of PKC by pre-incubation of platelets with dibutyryl cAMP. These changes were also observed when platelet cAMP was increased by prostacyclin (PGI2), forskolin, or theophylline. The ADP scavenger creatine phosphate/creatine phosphokinase (CP/CPK) and the cyclooxygenase inhibitor indomethacin also diminished the aggregation and p47 phosphorylation responses to PMA or OAG. Pre-incubation of platelets with dibutyryl cAMP significantly potentiated the inhibition of aggregation and p47 phosphorylation effected by CP/CPK and indomethacin. These results are consistent with the model that PMA- or OAG-induced activation of platelets is amplified by secreted ADP and that the response to secreted ADP is inhibited by cAMP. Furthermore, the findings that increased intracellular cAMP inhibits PMA- or OAG-induced p47 phosphorylation in excess of that due solely to CP/CPK, and that cAMP significantly potentiates the effects of ADP removal and inhibition of cyclooxygenase in blocking p47 phosphorylation suggest that cAMP also exerts non-ADP-mediated inhibitory effects on PKC in intact platelets. 相似文献

Embryonic chick (7–9 day) and newborn chick myocardia contain one major peak of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase activity as assessed by DEAE-cellulose chromatography. Evidence is presented that the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase activity ratios (activity in absence of cyclic AMP/activity in presence of added cyclic AMP) of homogenates prepared with low ionicf strength buffer reflect the endogenous activation state of the enzyme. The cyclic AMP content of newborn chick myocardium is lower than that of 7–9-day embryonic chick myocardium; the baseline cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase activity is correspondingly reduced. Isoproterenol produces smaller elevations in cyclic AMP and in the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase activity ratio in newborn chick as compared to embryonic chick myocardium. Differences in the ability of isoproterenol to elevate cyclic AMP in the different preparations are not accompanined by appropriate changes in the adenylate cyclase or phosphodiesterase activities of the corresponding broken cell preparations. Studies with the phosphodiesterase inhibitor, Ro 20 1724 indicate that the changes in the ability of isoproterenol to elevate cyclic AMP in the developing chick myocardium are due to changes in the metabolism of the cyclic nucleotide by phosphodiesterase. 相似文献

Platelets are the primary players in both thrombosis and hemostasis. Cyclic AMP (cAMP) and cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA)
are important signaling molecules in the regulation of platelet function, such as adhesion, aggregation, and secretion. Elevation
of intracellular cAMP, which induces the activation of PKA, results in the inhibition of platelet function. Thus, tight control
of the intracellular cAMP/PKA signaling pathway has great implications for platelet-dependent hemostasis and effective cardiovascular
therapy. In this review, we summarize the PKA substrates and their contributions to platelet function, especially the advancing
understanding of the cAMP/PKA-dependent signaling pathway in platelet physiology. In addition, we suggest the possibility
that cAMP/PKA is involved in the platelet procoagulant process and receptor ectodomain shedding. 相似文献

Phosphorylation of cGMP-dependent protein kinase increases the affinity for cyclic AMP 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Cyclic-GMP-dependent protein kinase contains two binding sites for cGMP, which have different affinities for cGMP. Autophosphorylation of the enzyme affects mainly the binding of cGMP to the 'high'-affinity site (site 1). The enzyme binds cAMP and cAMP stimulates the phosphotransferase activity of the native enzyme half-maximally at 44 microM. Autophosphorylation of the enzyme decreases the apparent Ka value to 7 microM. Autophosphorylation does not affect the catalytic rate of the enzyme if measured at a saturating concentration of ATP. Tritiated cAMP apparently binds at 4 degrees C to one site with a Kd value of 3 microM. Binding to the second site is not measurable. Autophosphorylation of the enzyme increases the affinity of the high-affinity site for cAMP sixfold (Kd 0.46 microM) and allows the detection of a second site. In accordance with these data the dissociation rate of [3H]cAMP from the high-affinity site is decreased from 4.5 min-1 to 1.2 min-1 by autophosphorylation. Experiments in which unlabeled cAMP competes with [3H] cGMP for the two binding sites confirmed these results. Recalculation of the competition curves by a computer program for two binding sites indicated that autophosphorylation decreases the Kd value for binding of cAMP to the high-affinity site from 1.9 microM to 0.17 microM. Autophosphorylation does not affect significantly the affinity for the second site. Kd values for site 2 varied from 17 microM to 40 microM. These results suggest that autophosphorylation of cGMP-dependent protein kinase increases the affinity of the enzyme for cAMP by affecting mainly the properties of binding site 1. 相似文献

Treatment with the catalytic subunit of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase induced the following modifications in the kinetic properties of purified phosphofructokinase 2. The affinity for Fru-6-P, the Vmax and the stimulatory effect of Pi were decreased; the inhibitory actions of P-enol-pyruvate and citrate were increased; the pH activity curve, measured in the presence of 5 mM Fru-6-P and 5 mM Pi was modified in the respect that the peak of activity normally measured at pH 6.6 was abolished whereas no effect of the treatment was observed at pH 8. Similar changes in the properties of phosphofructokinase 2 were also observed in a crude preparation obtained from hepatocytes incubated with glucagon. 相似文献
