Protein kinase activity in high-speed supernatant fractions prepared from rat epididymal adipose tissue previously incubated in the absence or presence of insulin was investigated by following the incorporation of 32P from [gamma-32P]ATP into phosphoproteins separated by sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electro-phoresis. Incorporation of 32P into several endogenous proteins in the supernatant fractions from insulin-treated tissue was significantly increased. These included acetyl-CoA carboxylase and ATP citrate lyase (which exhibit increased phosphorylation within fat-cells exposed to insulin), together with two unknown proteins of subunit Mr 78000 and 43000. The protein kinase activity increased by insulin was distinct from cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, was not dependent on Ca2+ and was not appreciably affected by dialysis or gel filtration. The rate of phosphorylation of added purified fat-cell acetyl-CoA carboxylase and ATP citrate lyase was also increased by 60-90% in high-speed-supernatant fractions prepared from insulin-treated tissue. No evidence for any persistent changes in phosphoprotein phosphatase activity was found. It is concluded that insulin action on acetyl-CoA carboxylase, ATP citrate lyase and other intracellular proteins exhibiting increased phosphorylation involves an increase in cyclic AMP-independent protein kinase activity in the cytoplasm. The possibility that the increase reflects translocation from the plasma membrane, perhaps after phosphorylation by the protein tyrosine kinase associated with insulin receptors, is discussed.

Superose 6 chromatography was used to separate rapidly the polymeric and dimeric forms of acetyl-CoA carboxylase. With preparations of acetyl-CoA carboxylase purified by Sepharose-avidin chromatography, it is shown that citrate promotes polymerization and that the extent of polymerization is diminished, but not eliminated, after phosphorylation by cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase. After exposure of rat epididymal adipose tissue to insulin, evidence was obtained for a marked increase in polymerization. The polymeric form, which was active in the absence of citrate, exhibited increased phosphorylation, particularly on a tryptic peptide designated the I-peptide in an earlier study [Brownsey & Denton (1982) Biochem. J. 202, 77-86]. In contrast, in tissue exposed to the beta-agonist isoprenaline, most of the phosphorylated acetyl-CoA carboxylase appeared to be in the dimeric form if chromatography was carried out in the absence of citrate, whereas in the presence of citrate the degree of polymerization was diminished.
