These studies examine the interactions of Ca2+, Mg2+, and guanine nucleotides with PTH binding to renal receptors and activation of adenylate cyclase in a purified preparation of basolateral renal cortical membranes. Inhibition of adenylate cyclase activity by increasing concentrations of CA2+ was more pronounced in the presence of PTH than on basal activity. This effect was not explained by an effect of Ca2+ on equilibrium PTH binding or binding affinity. The presence of PTH also decreased the requirements of the enzyme for Mg2+, consistent with the competitive nature of Ca2+ and Mg2+ interaction. Guanine nucleotides produced similar changes in the metal requirements for enzyme activity. PTH and guanine nucleotides, however, were not additive in this regard in spite of marked synergism in total enzyme activity. Additional studies were performed to further define the effects of guanine nucleotides on the receptor-cyclase system. GTP and Gpp(NH)p caused a dose-dependent decline in equilibrium PTH binding and a small increase in half-maximal displacement. PTH-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity was markedly increased by either nucleotide, and the half-maximal activity was decreased (Gpp(NH)p greater than GTP). This was partly explained by a marked effect of guanine nucleotides on the dissociation rate of receptor-bound PTH. These data suggest that Ca2+ inhibition of PTH-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity is not due to a decreased binding of PTH but to an effect of PTH on the metal requirements for adenylate cyclase activation at the nucleotide regulatory site.

Metal ions play important roles in the regulation of the activation of adenylate cyclase. Previous studies have suggested that an important site of action of metal ions is at or closely related to the nucleotide regulatory protein. The present studies examine the nature of the regulation of enzyme activity by divalent cations and the influence of Mn2+ on hormone binding and stimulation of adenylate cyclase. Studies were performed in canine renal cortical membranes. Substitution of Mg2+ by Mn2+ was associated with a progressive decline in the ability of GTP or PTH to stimulate adenylate cyclase activity. Mn2+ did not alter specific binding of an iodinated PTH analogue. However, in spite of the loss of guanine nucleotide stimulation of enzyme activity, the effects of guanine nucleotide on PTH binding were not altered in the presence of Mn2+. Substitution of Mg2+ by Mn2+ abolished the inhibitory effect of Ca2+ on basal adenylate cyclase activity. Similarly, the effects of GTP or PTH to enhance the inhibitory effects of Ca2+ on enzyme activity were abolished in the presence of Mn2+. Since Mg2+ and Ca2+ compete for a common allosteric site and Mn2+ abolished the effects of these cations, it would appear that Mn2+ also competes for the binding site of Mg2+ and Ca2+. The present studies demonstrating that Mn2+ does not affect hormone binding or the actions of guanine nucleotides on hormone binding yet totally eliminates the effect of GTP on enzyme activity indicate that the effect of Mn2+ occurs at the level of the interactions of the nucleotide regulatory component with the catalytic unit. In addition, these data suggest that there are two functionally distinct sites of guanine nucleotides with different ionic requirements.

1. About 4 and 23% of the homogenate adenylate cyclase activity was recovered in the microsomal and sarcolemmal fractions isolated from guinea-pig heart ventricles. 2. Cardiac microsomal adenylate cyclase activity [basal as well as p[NH]ppG (guanyl-5′-yl imidodiphosphate)- and NaF-stimulated] was increased over 2-fold in the presence of Lubrol-PX (0.01–0.1%). 3. The sarcolemmal enzyme, however, showed concentration-dependent inhibition caused by the detergent under all assay conditions, except when p[NH]ppG was included in the assay. In the latter case, the detergent (0.01–0.02%) caused a modest increase (30–45%) in enzyme activity. 4. Another non-ionic detergent, Triton X-100, also stimulated the microsomal cyclase and inhibited the sarcolemmal enzyme. 5. With either membrane fraction, Lubrol-PX solubilized the enzyme when the detergent/membrane protein ratio was 2.5 (μmol of detergent/mg of protein). 6. The findings with homogenate and a washed particulate fraction resembled those obtained with sarcolemma, and those with isolated sarcoplasmic reticulum resembled those with microsomal preparations. 7. p[NH]ppG, and to some extent NaF, protected the detergent-induced inactivation of the enzyme observed at higher detergent concentrations (0.5% Lubrol-PX and 0.05–0.5% Triton X-100). 8. In the absence of detergents, p[NH]ppG increased the basal enzyme activity about 2-fold in microsomal fractions, but did not appreciably stimulate the sarcolemmal enzyme. Isoproterenol, on the other hand, increased the sarcolemmal enzyme activity (>2-fold) in the presence of p[NH]ppG and caused only moderate stimulation (31%) of the microsomal enzyme under these conditions. 9. These findings support the view that, although the bulk of adenylate cyclase resides in heart sarcolemma (plasma membrane), the microsomal activity cannot be accounted for solely by contamination of the microsomal fraction with sarcolemma, as has been suggested by others [Besch, Jones & Watanabe (1976) Circ. Res.39, 586–595; Engelhard, Plut & Storm (1976) Biochim. Biophys. Acta451, 48–61]. Further, the results of this study show that cardiac sarcoplasmic-reticulum membranes possess this enzyme.

In many systems, perturbations of membrane architecture by changes of lipid and phospholipid composition have been shown to alter the activity of membrane-bound enzymes. The present studies examined the effect of benzyl alcohol, an agent that has been shown to increase membrane fluidity, on the parathyroid hormone (PTH)-sensitive adenylate cyclase system of canine kidney. Benzyl alcohol progressively increased basal adenylate cyclase activity up to fourfold and maximal enzyme activity in the presence of PTH, GTP, guanylimidodiphosphate, and sodium fluoride by four- to sixfold. In the presence of 20 mM Mn2+ (no Mg2+), conditions under which enzyme activity is devoid of influence of guanine nucleotides or hormones, benzyl alcohol was without effect. PTH binding was increased by 25% in the presence of benzyl alcohol without a change in binding affinity. Fluorescent polarization studies using diphenylhexatriene showed a decrease in fluorescence anisotropy in the presence of benzyl alcohol. The results suggest that benzyl alcohol facilitates the interaction of the components of the adenylate cyclase system, presumably by increasing membrane fluidity. Alterations of membrane fluidity may be a potent means of regulating hormone sensitive adenylate cyclase activity.

1. GTP and GMP-P(NH)P (guanyl-5'-yl imidodiphosphate) were observed to increase the stimulation of neural adenylate cyclase by dopamine (3,4-dihydroxyphenethylamine) and noradrenaline. 2. GMP-P(NH)P had a biphasic effect on the enzyme activity. 3. Preincubation of membranes with GMP-P(NH)P activated the enzyme by a process dependent on time and temperature. Catecholamines increased the speed and the extent of this activation. 4. Membrane fractions contained high- and low-affinity sites for GMP-P(NH)P binding: this binding was due to protein(s) of the membrane preparations. 5. Low-affinity-site binding of GMP-P(NH)P appeared to be related to the stimulatory effect on the adenylate cyclase activity.

The phosphaturic action of parathyroid hormone (PTH) is blunted during metabolic acidosis. Previous studies suggest that the activation of renal cortical adenylate cyclase by PTH is decreased under this condition. However, the mechanisms underlying the defect are not completely defined. The present studies were designed to examine the interaction of PTH with its receptor-adenylate cyclase system in basolateral cortical membranes from dogs with metabolic acidosis. Chronic metabolic acidosis was induced in seven normal dogs. Venous blood pH decreased to 7.21 +/- 0.01 and serum bicarbonate to 12.58 +/- 0.32 meq/liter. In seven control dogs blood pH was 7.38 +/- 0.002 and serum bicarbonate was 20.14 +/- 0.26 meq/liter. The kidneys were surgically removed and basolateral membranes were prepared by differential centrifugation and ultracentrifugation in discontinuous sucrose density gradients for studies of adenylate cyclase activity and hormone-receptor binding. Metabolic acidosis resulted in a significant decrease in PTH-dependent adenylate cyclase activity (Vmax 2,119 +/- 150 pmol cAMP X mg prot-1 .30 min-1 vs. 3,548 +/- 116 in the controls). The PTH concentration giving half-maximal activation of adenylate cyclase was unchanged. However, PTH-receptor binding showed similar affinity and binding capacity in both groups of membranes. Basal enzyme activity was also similar. In the presence of the GTP analogue 5'-guanylylimidodiphosphate, PTH-dependent adenylate cyclase activity remained markedly decreased in the acidotic dog membranes compared with the controls. The ability of NaF to stimulate enzyme activity was also depressed in the membrane of acidotic dogs. Enzyme activity in the presence of Mn2+ was similar in the two groups.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
