Highly purified sarcolemma from dog and pig cardiac muscle has been shown to contain significant activities of a membrane-bound cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. In addition, these membranes undergo endogenous phosphorylation when incubated with Mg2+ and [gamma-32P]ATP. By comparing 32P-labelled patterns obtained with [gamma-32P]ATP and the photoaffinity label 8-azidoadenosine 3′:5′-[32P]monophosphate (8-azido-cyclic [32P]AMP), we have demonstrated that, whereas the major kinase isoenzyme in dog sarcolemma was Type II, that in the pig membrane was the Type I isoenzyme.

Myosin light-chain kinase was purifed from bovine carotid artery. Approx. 90% of myosin kinase was extracted in the supernatant fraction with buffer containing EDTA during myofibril preparation. The soluble fraction yielded two distinct peaks on DEAE-Sephacel chromatography. Peak I was eluted at a conductance of 11–12mmho and was completely dependent on Ca2+–calmodulin for its activity. Peak II was eluted at a conductance of 13–14mmho and showed approx. 15% Ca2+-independent activity. The myosin kinases I and II were further purified by affinity chromatography by using calmodulin coupled to Sepharose 4B, which resulted in 960-and 650-fold purification of type I and type II kinases respectively. Myosin kinase II activity was completely Ca2+-dependent after affinity chromatography on the calmodulin–Sepharose column. Myosin kinases I and II were phosphorylated by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. In the presence of bound calmodulin 0.5–0.7mol of phosphate was incorporated/mol of myosin kinases I and II. On the other hand, in the absence of bound calmodulin 1–1.4mol of phosphate was incorporated/mol of kinases I and II. Phosphorylation in the absence of calmodulin significantly decreased the myosin kinase activity of both enzymes, and the decrease in myosin kinase activity was due to a 3–5-fold increase in the amount of calmodulin required for half-maximal stimulation of both type I and type II kinases. The regulation of myosin kinase activity by cyclic AMP-dependent phosphorylation would suggest that β-adrenergic-mediated relaxation of vascular smooth muscle may be partly due to the direct interaction of cyclic AMP at the site of contractile proteins.

After human platelets were lysed by freezing and thawing in the presence of EDTA, about 35% of the total cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase activity was specifically associated with the particulate fraction. In contrast, Ca2+-activated phospholipid-dependent protein kinase was found exclusively in the soluble fraction. Photoaffinity labelling of the regulatory subunits of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase with 8-azido-cyclic [32P]AMP indicated that platelet lysate contained a 4-fold excess of 49 000-Da RI subunits over 55 000-Da RII subunits. The RI and RII subunits were found almost entirely in the particulate and soluble fractions respectively. Chromatography of the soluble fraction on DEAE-cellulose demonstrated a single peak of cyclic AMP-dependent activity with the elution characteristics and regulatory subunits characteristic of the type-II enzyme. A major enzyme peak containing Ca2+-activated phospholipid-dependent protein kinase was eluted before the type-II enzyme, but no type-I cyclic AMP-dependent activity was normally observed in the soluble fraction. The particulate cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase and associated RI subunits were solubilized by buffers containing 0.1 or 0.5% (w/v) Triton X-100, but not by extraction with 0.5 M-NaCl, indicating that this enzyme is firmly membrane-bound, either as an integral membrane protein or via an anchor protein. DEAE-cellulose chromatography of the Triton X-100 extracts demonstrated the presence of both type-I cyclic AMP-dependent holoenzyme and free RI subunits. These results show that platelets contain three main protein kinase activities detectable with histone substrates, namely a membrane-bound type-I cyclic AMP-dependent enzyme, a soluble type-II cyclic AMP-dependent enzyme and Ca2+-activated phospholipid-dependent protein kinase, which was soluble in lysates containing EDTA.

1. Troponin I isolated from fresh cardiac muscle by affinity chromatography contains about 1.9 mol of covalently bound phosphate/mol. Similar preparations of white-skeletal-muscle troponin I contain about 0.5 mol of phosphate/mol. 2. A 3':5'-cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase and a protein phosphatase are associated with troponin isolated from cardiac muscle. 3. Bovine cardiac 3':5'-cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase catalyses the phosphorylation of cardiac troponin I 30 times faster than white-skeletal-muscle troponin I. 4. Troponin I is the only component of cardiac troponin phosphorylated at a significant rate by the endogenous or a bovine cardiac 3':5'-cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. 5. Phosphorylase kinase catalyses the phosphorylation of cardiac troponin I at similar or slightly faster rates than white-skeletal-muscle troponin I. 6. Troponin C inhibits the phosphorylation of cardiac and skeletal troponin I catalysed by phosphorylase kinase and the phosphorylation of white skeletal troponin I catalysed by 3':5'-cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase; the phosphorylation of cardiac troponin I catalysed by the latter enzyme is not inhibited.
