Cytoplasmic and membrane fractions prepared from human peripheral-blood lymphocytes both contained cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase activity and endogenous protein kinase substrates. Protein kinase activity in the particulate fractions was not eluted with 0.25 M-NaCl, suggesting that it was not derived from non-specifically absorbed soluble cytoplasmic protein kinase. Nor was the particulate protein kinase activity eluted by treatment with cyclic AMP, suggesting that the catalytic subunit is membrane-bound and arguing against cyclic AMP-induced translocation of particulate activity. Cyclic AMP-dependent protein-phosphorylating activity in the cytoplasmic fraction was highly sensitive to inhibition by Mn2+, and was co-eluted from DEAE-cellulose primarily with type-I rabbit skeletal-muscle kinase. Cyclic AMP-dependent phosphorylating activity in the plasma-membrane fractions was stimulated at low [Mn2+] and inhibited only at high [Mn2+]. When solubilized with Nonidet P-40, plasma-membrane protein kinase was co-eluted from DEAE-cellulose with type-II rabbit muscle kinase. These differences, together with the strong association of the particulate kinases with the particulate fraction, suggest the possibility of compartmentalized protein phosphorylation in intact lymphocytes. 相似文献

We have examined endogenous cyclic AMP-stimulated phosphorylation of subcellular fractions of rat brain enriched in synaptic plasma membranes (SPM), purified synaptic junctions (SJ), and postsynaptic densities (PSD). The analyses of these fractions are essential to provide direct evidence for cyclic AMP-dependent endogenous phosphorylation at discrete synaptic junctional loci. Protein kinase activity was measured in subcellular fractions using both endogenous and exogenous (histones) proteins as substrates. The SJ fraction possessed the highest kinase activity toward endogenous protein substrates, 5-fold greater than SPM and approximately 120-fold greater than PSD fractions. Although the kinase activity as measured with histones as substrates was only slightly higher in SJ than SPM fractions, there was a marked preference of kinase activity toward endogenous compared to exogenous substrates in SJ fractions but in SPM fractions. Although overall phosphorylation in SJ fractions was increased only 36% by 5 micron cyclic AMP, there were discrete proteins of Mr = 85,000, 82,000, 78,000, and 55,000 which incorporated 2- to 3-fold more radioactive phosphate in the presence of cyclic AMP. Most, if not all, of the cyclic AMP-independent kinase activity is probably catalyzed by catalytic subunit derived from cyclic AMP-dependent kinase, since the phosphorylation of both exogenous and endogenous proteins was greatly decreased in the presence of a heat-stable inhibitor protein prepared from the soluble fraction of rat brain. The specific retention of SJ protein kinase(s) activity during purification and their resistance to detergent solubilization was achieved by chemical treatments which produce interprotein cross-linking via disulfide bridges. Two SJ polypeptides of Mr = 55,000 and 49,000 were photoaffinity-labeled with [32P]8-N3-cyclic AMP and probably represent the regulatory subunits of the type I and II cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinases. The protein of Mr = 55,000 was phosphorylated in a cyclic AMP-stimulated manner suggesting autophosphorylation as previously observed in other systems. 相似文献

Activation of one or more cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinases has been suggested as an intermediate step in ACTH-stimulated adrenal cell steroidogenesis. Phosphorylation of a number of proteins from different subcellular fractions has been reported but those phosphorylation events which are relevant to the steroidogenic process have not yet been identified. In this paper we report that plasma membrane enriched fractions from bovine adrenal cortex retain the ability to phosphorylate endogenous membrane proteins and that phosphorylation of these acceptors is markedly enhanced by cyclic AMP or, to a lesser extent, by cyclic GMP. Cyclic nucleotide-dependent phosphorylation was most marked in protein acceptors of 191 000, 148 000, 138 000, 107 000, 65 000, 60 000 and 27 000 daltons. Cyclic nucleotide stimulation of phosphorylation was rapid (within 10 s), and is consistent with the rapid onset of ACTH-stimulated steroidogenesis. 相似文献

Pigeon heart microsomes contain three minor size protein kinase substrates of minimal molecular weights of 22 000, 15 000, and 11500, as estimated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. When the microsomes were partially loaded with calcium oxalate and subjected to rate zonal and isopycnic centrifugations in sucrose density gradient columns, the 22 000 and the 15 000 dalton proteins settled in the heaviest fraction, which was composed mainly of vesicles of sarcoplasmic reticular membranes; the 11 500 dalton protein was concentrated in the lightest fractions, which consisted chiefly of vesicles of sarcolemmal origin. During incubation of the membrane fractions with Mg [gamma-32P]ATP significant amounts of 32P were incorporated into all these proteins. Incorporation of 32P into the 15 000 dalton protein was moderately and 32P incorporation into the 22 000 dalton protein was markedly enhanced in the presence of exogenous soluble cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase and cyclic AMP. The phosphorylation of the three proteins was virtually unaffected by Ca2+ concentrations up to 0.1 mM and by ethyleneglycol-bis-(beta-aminoethyl-ether)-N,N'-tetraacetic acid in the absence of added Ca2+. Phosphorylation of the 22 000 and the 11 500 dalton proteins occurred mainly at serine residues. In the 15 000 dalton protein threonine residues were the main site of endogenous phosphorylation. Nearly equal amounts of [32P]-phosphate were incorporated into threonine and serine residues of this protein, when phosphorylation was supported by exogenous cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase and cyclic AMP. The 15 000 dalton protein could be removed from its membrane attachment by extraction with an acidic chloroform/methanol mixture. This step opens the way for the purification of this membrane-bound protein kinase substrate. 相似文献

Incubation of subcellular fractions of fibroblasts with [32P]ATP demonstrated 10 phosphoproteins whose phosphorylation can be increased by cyclic AMP or cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. One of these phosphoproteins, MW 240,000, resembles the actin binding protein, filamin, and can be selectively precipitated by antibodies to chicken gizzard filamin. Furthermore chicken gizzard filamin can be phosphorylated by skeletal muscle protein kinase and cyclic AMP stimulates this reaction. 相似文献

Differences in the cyclic AMP-dependent phosphorylation of plasma membrane proteins of differentiated and undifferentiated L6 myogenic cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Differences in the cyclic AMP-dependent plasma membrane phosphorylation system of undifferentiated and differentiated L6 myogenic cells have been detected. Endogenous plasma membrane protein phosphorylation in undifferentiated L6 myoblasts was stimulated more than three fold by 5 x 10(-5) M cyclic AMP, whereas no statistically significant cyclic AMP-dependent phosphorylation of endogenous plasma membrane proteins was observed in differentiated L6 cells. In undifferentiated cells cyclic AMP promoted the phosphorylation of several proteins, the most prominent of which had a molecular weight of 110,000. In differentiated cells cyclic AMP did not selectively promote the phosphorylation of specific plasma membrane proteins. Both differentiated and undifferentiated L6 cells, however, contain a cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase capable of catalyzing the phosphorylation of exogenous substrates, such as histone f2b. Therefore, the data show that differentiation in L6 cells is associated with a selective change in the activity of a plasma membrane cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase which employs endogenous membrane proteins as substrate. 相似文献

The plasma membrane of 3T3 cells contains at least two different endogenous cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase systems. One catalyzes the phosphorylation of endogenous protein substrates, i.e., PP24 and PP14, whereas the other catalyzes the phosphorylation of exogenous substrates. In this paper the topography of these cyclic AMP-dependent phosphorylation systems is described. The results show that the kinases which phosphorylate only exogenous substrates are primarily localized to the outer plasma membrane surface whereas the endogenous cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase and its two endogenous substrates are localized to the cytoplasmic plasma membrane surface. The data also establish that neither the cytoplasmically orientated kinase nor its substrates has a transmembrane orientation even though factors acting on the outer plasma membrane can affect these proteins. This suggests that functional modulation of the cytoplasmically localized cyclic AMP-dependent phosphorylation system can be mediated by a transmembrane regulatory mechanism. The importance of determining the topography of such plasma membrane phosphorylation systems is emphasized by recent studies which show that neoplastic transformation can be mediated at least in part by protein kinases and/or phosphoproteins which are localized on the cytoplasmic surface of the plasma membrane. 相似文献

Differences in the cyclic AMP-dependent plasma membrane phosphorylation system of undifferentiated and differentiated L6 myogenic cells have been detected. Endogenous plasma membrane protein phosphorylation in undifferentiated L6 myoblasts was stimulated more than three fold by 5 × 10−5 M cyclic AMP, whereas no statistically significant cyclic AMP-dependent phosphorylation of endogenous plasma membrane proteins was observed in differentiated L6 cells. In undifferentiated cells cyclic AMP promoted the phosphorylation of several proteins, the most prominent of which had a molecular weight of 110,000. In differentiated cells cyclic AMP did not selectively promote the phosphorylation of specific plasma membrane proteins. Both differentiated and undifferentiated L6 cells, however, contain a cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase capable of catalyzing the phosphorylation of exogenous substrates, such as histone f2 b. Therefore, the data show that differentiation in L6 cells is associated with a selective change in the activity of a plasma membrane cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase which employs endogenous membrane proteins as substrate. 相似文献

High-resolution two-dimensional gel electrophoresis of proteins labeled with either 32Pi or [35S]methionine was used to study interactions between cyclic AMP and tetradecanoyl phorbol acetate (TPA) at the level of intracellular protein phosphorylation. Cultured S49 mouse lymphoma cells were used as a model system, and mutant sublines lacking either the catalytic subunit of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase or the guanyl nucleotide-binding "Ns" factor of adenylate cyclase provided tools to probe mechanisms underlying the interactions observed. Three sets of phosphoproteins responded differently to TPA treatment of wild-type and mutant cells: Phosphorylations shown previously to be responsive to activation of intracellular cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase were stimulated by TPA in wild-type cells but not in mutant cells, a subset of phosphorylations stimulated strongly by TPA in mutant cells was inhibited in wild-type cells, and two novel phosphoprotein species appeared in response to TPA only in wild-type cells. The latter two classes of TPA-mediated responses specific to wild-type cells could be evoked in adenylate cyclase-deficient cells by treating concomitantly with TPA and either forskolin or an analog of cyclic AMP. Three conclusions are drawn from our results: 1) TPA stimulates adenylate cyclase in wild-type cells causing increased phosphorylation of endogenous substrates by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, 2) activated cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase inhibits phosphorylation (or enhances dephosphorylation) of a specific subset of TPA-dependent phosphoproteins, and 3) cyclic AMP-dependent events facilitate TPA-dependent phosphorylation of some substrate proteins. 相似文献

Porcine kidney cortex was utilized for the preparation of plasma-membrane-enriched and soluble cytoplasmic (cytosol) fractions for the purpose of examining the relative properties of cyclic [3H]AMP receptor and cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase activities of these preparations. The affinity, specificity and reversibility of cyclic [3H]AMP interaction with renal membrane and cytosol binding sites were indicative of physiological receptors.Binding sites of cytosol and deoxycholate-solubilized membranes were half-saturated at approx. 50nM and 100 nM cyclic [3H]AMP. Native plasma membranes exhibited multiple binding sites which were not saturated up to 1 mM cyclic [3H]AMP. Modification of the cyclic phosphate configuration or 2′-hydroxyl of the ribose moiety of cyclic AMP produced a marked reduction in the effectiveness of the cyclic AMP analogue as a competitor with cyclic [3H]AMP for renal receptors. The cyclic [3H]AMP interaction with membrane and cytosol fractions was reversible and the rate and extent of dissociation of bound cyclic [3H]AMP was temperature dependent. With the plasma-membrane preparation, dissociation of cyclic [3H]AMP was enhanced by ATP or AMP.Assay of both kidney subcellular fractions for protein kinase activity revealed that cyclic AMP enhanced the phosphorylation of protamine, lysine-rich and arginine-rich histones but not casein. The potency and efficacy of activation of renal membrane and cytosol protein kinase by cyclic AMP analogues such as N6-butyryl-adenosine cyclic 3′,5′-monophosphate or N6,O2-dibutyryl-adenosine cyclic 3′,5′-monophosphate supported the observations on the effectiveness of cyclic AMP analogues as competitors with cyclic [3H]AMP in competitive binding assays.This study suggested that the membrane cyclic [3H]AMP receptors may be closely associated with the membrane-bound catalytic moiety of the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase system of porcine kidney. 相似文献

The peripheral cycle AMP phosphodiesterase from rat liver plasma membranes binds with high affinity (2.4 nM) to a single class of receptor sites on the liver plasma membrane. These receptor sites appear to be proteins, as they are trypsin- and heat-labile. The sensitivity of these sites to denaturation by trypsin and heat is a first-order process. The presence of Ca2+ (5 mM) increases the affinity of these sites for the enzyme, but does not alter their total number. The receptor sites and the cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase occur in similar numbers, at around 2 pmol/mg of plasma-membrane protein. It is proposed that the peripheral, liver plasma-membrane cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase is attached to a specific site on the insulin receptor and that the binding of insulin to the receptor site triggers a conformational change in the enzyme such that the enzyme can be phosphorylated and activated by an endogenous cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. 相似文献

An adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP)-binding protein in the human erythrocyte plasma membrane was isotopically labeled using a photoaffinity analog of cyclic AMP, N6-(ethyl 2-diazomalonyl) cyclic [3H]AMP. The cyclic AMP-binding site is located in a polypeptide chain having a molecular weight of 48,000. Cyclic AMP-binding protein and cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase were solubilized with 0.5% Triton X-100 in 56 mM sodium borate, pH 8, but 32P-labeled membrane phosphoproteins were retained in the Triton-insoluble fraction, suggesting that the membrane-associated binding protein is not a primary substrate for protein kinase. Triton-solubilized and membrane-associated protein kinase activities were stimulated 15- and 17-fold by cyclic AMP, suggesting that the degree of association between the catalytic anc cyclic AMP-binding components was very similar in both preparations. Fractionation and characterization of membrane phosphoproteins have shown that protein III and a co-migrating minor protein are substrates for protein kinase but membrane sialoglycoproteins are not phosphorylated. 相似文献

The subcellular distribution of the endogenous phosphodiesterase activator and its release from membranes by a cyclic AMP-dependent ATP:protein phosphotransferase was studied in fractions and subfractions of rat brain homogenate. These fractions were obtained by differential centrifugation and sucrose density gradient; their identity was ascertained by electron microscopy and specific enzyme markers. In the subcellular particulate fractions, the concentration of activator is highest in the microsomal fraction, followed by the mitochondrial and nuclear fractions. Gradient centrifugation of the main mitochondrial subfraction revealed that activator was concentrated in those fractions containing mainly synaptic membranes. Activator was releasted from membranes by a cyclic AMP-dependent phosphorylation of membrane protein. The release of activator occurred mainly from the mitochondrial subfractions containing synaptic membranes and synaptic vesicles. The data support the view that a release of activator from membranes may be important in normalizing the elevated concentration of cyclic AMP following persistent transsynaptic activation of adenylate cyclase. 相似文献

Synaptosomal plasma membranes from mammalian brain contain protein kinase activity which phosphorylates endogenous membrane proteins and is stimulated by cyclic AMP. Using polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis it was shown that at least ten proteins in the synaptosomal plasma membrane fraction could be phosphorylated by endogenous cyclic AMP-stimulated protein kinase activity. The number of proteins whose phosphorylation was stimulated by cyclic AMP was strongly influenced by the pH and Mg2+ concentration used in the phosphorylation reaction. A complex pattern of cyclic AMP-stimulated protein phosphorylation was obtained only with synaptosomal plasma membranes and a crude microsomal fraction. Mitochondrial and myelin fractions exhibited no cyclic AMP-stimulated protein kinase activity. Investigation of the distribution of substrates for cyclic AMP-stimulated phosphorylation among various brain regions failed to reveal any regional differences. 相似文献

We have shown recently that neuronal growth cones isolated from developing rat forebrain possess an appreciable activity of adenylate cyclase, which produces cyclic AMP and can be stimulated by various neurotransmitter receptor agonists and by forskolin. To investigate cyclic AMP-mediated biochemical mechanisms in isolated growth cones, we have centered the present study on cyclic AMP-dependent protein phosphorylation. One-dimensional gel electrophoretic analysis showed that cyclic AMP analogs increased incorporation of 32P into several phosphoproteins in molecular mass ranges of 50-58 and 76-82 kilodaltons, including those of 82, 76, and 51 kilodaltons. Two-dimensional electrophoresis, using isoelectric focusing in the first dimension, resolved phosphorylated alpha- and beta-tubulin species, actin, a very acidic protein (isoelectric point 4.0) with a molecular mass of 93 kilodaltons, and two proteins (x and x') closely neighboring beta-tubulin. Two other phosphoproteins seen in the gels had molecular masses of 56 and 51 kilodaltons (respective isoelectric points, 4.5 and 4.4) and, along with the 93-kilodalton phosphoprotein, were highly enriched in the isolated growth cones. Only the tubulin and actin species were major proteins in the isolated growth cones. Cyclic AMP analogs enhanced incorporation of 32P into phosphoproteins x and x', and, as assessed by immunoprecipitation, into beta-tubulin. Peptide digest experiments suggested that phosphoproteins x and x' are unrelated to beta-tubulin. Nonequilibrium two-dimensional electrophoresis resolved many phosphoproteins, of which a 79- and 75-kilodalton doublet, a 74-kilodalton species, and a 58-kilodalton doublet showed enhanced incorporation of 32P in the presence of cyclic AMP. 相似文献

Effects of Ca2+, calmodulin and cyclic AMP on the phosphorylation of endogenous proteins by homogenates of rt islets of langerhans 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
Activation of Ca2+ -calmodulin- and cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinases has been suggested to be involved in stimulus-secretion coupling in the pancreatic beta-cell. To study the properties of suc kinases and their endogenous protein substrates homogenates of rat islets of Langerhans were incubated with [gamma-32P]ATP. Phosphorylated proteins were separated by sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and detected by autoradiography. The phosphorylation of certain proteins could be enhanced by Ca2+ plus calmodulin or by cyclic AMP. The major effect of Ca2+ and calmodulin was to stimulate the phosphorylation of a protein (P53) of molecular weight 53,100 +/- 500 (n = 15). Maximum phosphorylation of protein P53 occurred within 2 min with 2 micrometers free Ca2+ and 0.7 micrometers calmodulin. Incorporation of label into protein P53 was inhibited by trifluoperazine or W7 but not by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitor. Phosphorylation of a proteins of similar molecular weight could be enhanced to a lesser extent in the absence of Ca2+ but in the presence of cyclic AMP and 3-isobutylmethylxanthine: this phosphorylation was blocked by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitor. Cyclic AMP also stimulated incorporation of label into polypeptides of molecular weights 55,000 and 70-80,000. The results are consistent with the hypothesis that protein phosphorylation mechanisms may play a role in the regulation of insulin secretion. 相似文献

Forskolin, an activator of adenylate cyclase, stimulates adrenocorticotropin (ACTH) release and increases proopiomelanocortin mRNA levels in anterior pituitary cells by enhancing cyclic AMP (cAMP)-dependent protein kinase activity. The phorbol ester phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) evokes these same responses from anterior pituitary cells by activating protein kinase C. Both protein kinases most likely induce their cellular effects by catalyzing the phosphorylation of specific proteins. To elucidate the mechanisms by which cAMP-dependent protein kinase and protein kinase C promote ACTH secretion and synthesis, the phosphoproteins regulated by forskolin and PMA were identified in the cell line AtT-20, which consists of a homogeneous population of corticotrophs. Phosphoproteins were analyzed in different subcellular fractions by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and autoradiography. Forskolin increased phosphate incorporation into two proteins in the cytoplasmic fraction of 24 kilodaltons (kd) (pI 6.8) and 40 kd (pI 5.8), two proteins in the plasma membrane fraction of 32 kd (pI 8.3) and 60 kd (pI 8), and one protein in the nuclear fraction of 20 kd (pI 8.7). Insertion of the inhibitor of cAMP-dependent protein kinase into the AtT-20 cells, using a liposome technique, blocked the rise in phosphate incorporation induced by forskolin. PMA also stimulated phosphate incorporation into proteins in AtT-20 cells. PMA increased the phosphorylation of three cytoplasmic proteins of 25 kd (pI 7.6), 40 kd (pI 5.8), and 40 kd (pI 8.1) as well as two membrane proteins of 32 kd (pI 8.3) and 60 kd (pI 8) and one nuclear protein of 20 kd (pI 6.3).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献
