Optimal solubilization was dependent upon trypsin and particulate preparation concentrations. Virtually no activation of particulate guanylate cyclase was observed at any time point or trypsin concentration tested. Guanylate cyclase solubilized with trypsin was purified about 500-fold (9.4 nmoles/min/mg protein) using ammonium sulfate precipitation, GTP-affinity chromatography, and preparative polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Activity eluted as a single peak on Sepadex G-200 (Stokes radius = 40 A) and migrated as a single peak on sucrose density gradients (S20,w = 4.6). Thus, the tryptic fragment was estimated to be about 80,000 daltons (Mr) with a frictional ratio (f/fo) of 1.4. These partially purified preparations exhibited linear double reciprocal plots with Mn-GTP and Hill coefficients of 1.0. This is in contrast to the crude membrane-associated enzyme which had a Hill co-efficient of 1.5. Membrane-bound and trypsin-solubilized guanylate cyclase were activated 3- and 4-fold with nitric oxide and were inhibited with 1mM cystamine. Cystamine inhibition could be partially reversed with 7.5 mM dithiothreitol. These studies indicate that particulate guanylate cyclase solubilized by limited proteolysis is amenable to purification by \"classical\" chromatographic techniques.

When extracts were heated to 95 degrees for 5 minutes prior to gel filtration or electrophoresis, phosphorylase phosphatase inhibitor activity eluted at a lower molecular weight and a higher mobility, respectively. Storing cortex extracts at -20 degrees for 6 months resulted in partial conversion of both phosphatase and inhibitor activities to lower molecular weight forms which co-eluted on gel filtration.

The central postulate of cAMP-mediated hormone action is that hormones regulate intracellular cAMP concentration and cAMP-PK mediates the effects of this second messenger. Although this postulate accurately describes cAMP action in certain systems, it does not adequately provide for recent observations of the accumulation of cAMP and the activation of protein kinase without the anticipated effects on protein kinase's substrates. Both biochemical and cytochemical technics provide evidence that hormonally-specific regulation of cAMP action occurs and is important. Our thesis is that hormonal regulation of metabolic events via cAMP is localized intracellular phenomenon. We propose that occupation of some cell-surface hormone receptors leads to cAMP accumulation and the activation of protein kinase in subcellular compartments, with the consequent phosphorylation of specific, rather than all, substrates of protein kinase. circumstances potentially contributing to this specificity include: (a) physical and kinetic compartmentation of hormone-receptor-adenylate cyclase complexes non-randomly within the cell membrane; and, (b) a fixed spatial relationship of hormonally activated adenylate cyclase and specific intracellular regions by the participation of cytoskeletal proteins.</p>","PeriodicalId":15497,"journal":{"name":"Journal of cyclic nucleotide research","volume":"8 1","pages":"1-16"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1982-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"17352363","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, treatment of brain slices with glutaraldehyde or formaldehyde in buffered sucrose solutions for one to two hours at 0 degrees rendered insoluble as much as 60% of the total accumulated cyclic AMP as judged by filtration of homogenates of treated tissue. Immunoreactive cyclic AMP was recovered from filters by extraction with warm, dilute acid. The fraction of filter-bound cyclic AMP was relatively constant over a wide range of initial tissue levels. The persistence of insoluble cyclic AMP was greatest in homogenates of slices treated with formaldehyde when maintained above pH 8.5; about 40% of this fraction was lost after two hours at 0 degrees. Incubation of tissue homogenates with formaldehyde and radioactive nucleoside or nucleotide derivatives of adenine, guanine, and cytosine resulted in a time-dependent appearance of insoluble radioactivity; compounds lacking an amino function were inactive. Pure proteins, including polylysine, also reacted with formaldehyde and 3H-cyclic AMP to produce radioactivity resistant to adsorption by charcoal. The reaction between cyclic AMP or adenosine, formaldehyde, and alkyl amines was examined using UV spectrometry. It is tentatively concluded that at 0 degrees formaldehyde is capable of rapidly producing a methylene-bridged adduct between primary alkylamines and the N6-amino function of purine nucleosides or nucleotides.
