Abstract
Changes in the activities of adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP)-dependent protein kinases in response to prostaglandin (PG)E2-induced elevation of intracellular cAMP level were investigated with a murine macrophage-like cell line, P388D1. Photoaffinity labeling with 8-azido-[32P]cAMP showed that untreated P388D1 cells possess two types of cAMP-binding proteins of m.w. 49,000 and 52,000, respectively, in the cytosol fraction in a ration of 1:8. They must represent regulatory subunits (RI and RII, respectively) of cAMP-dependent protein kinases, because affinity chromatography on a column of omega-aminohexyl-agarose of the cytosol fraction clearly separated two fractions that exhibited the enzymatic activities and cAMP-binding activities. Photoaffinity labeling of these fractions with 8-azido-[32P]cAMP confirmed the separation of two types of isoenzymes, because each cAMP-dependent protein kinase active fraction was associated with only one type of regulatory subunit. The exposure of P388D1 cells to exogenously added PGE2 (1 microM) caused about 7.5-fold increase in the intracellular cAMP level within 30 sec. The cAMP level then sharply dropped to about 100 pmol/10(7) cells, remained at this level for about 20 min, and then gradually increased to 200 pmol/10(7) (about fivefold over the control). The enzyme assay of the cytosol demonstrated that the activation of cAMP-dependent protein kinases closely follows the kinetics of the intracellular cAMP level. The activation of the enzyme was specific for PGE2 and was not triggered by 1 microM PGF2 alpha or PGD2 which have been shown to be unable to activate adenylate cyclase of P388D1 cells. The PGE2-induced increase in the intracellular cAMP level appeared to activate preferentially the type I isoenzyme, inasmuch as the enzymatic activity of this type separated by the affinity chromatography of the cytosol of PGE2-exposed cells was lower in the presence than in the absence of cAMP, whereas the type II enzyme activity remained responsive to exogenously added cAMP.This publication has 10 references indexed in Scilit:
