Arginine-specific ADP-ribosyltransferase from rabbit skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum is solubilized as the active form with trypsin: partial purification and characterization.

Arginine-specific ADP-ribosyltransferase from rabbit skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum was solubilized as the active form with trypsin. The enzyme was partially purified by subsequent chromatography, successively on DE-52, Con A-Sepharose and Sephadex G-75. An approximately 2,000-fold purification was achieved from the 105,000 x g supernatant of trypsin-treated membrane with a recovery of 2.8%. Dithiothreitol, which activates hen liver nuclear ADP-ribosyltransferase, inhibited the enzyme.

DNA-dependent mono(ADP-ribosyl)ation of p33, an acceptor protein in hen liver nuclei.

A non-histone acceptor protein for hen liver nuclear ADP-ribosyltransferase was purified to an apparently homogeneous state through salt extraction and chromatography on hydroxyapatite, phenyl-Sepharose, carboxy-methyl-cellulose, Sephadex G-75, phenyl 5-PW, mono S and Radial PAK C18. This protein was termed p33. The ADP-ribosylation of p33 was enhanced more than 60-fold by double-stranded DNA. Single-stranded DNA, RNA and poly(L-glutamate), but not deoxyribonucleotide, were partially effective. DNA-dependent ADP-ribosylation was also observed when whole histones were used as acceptor. DNA required for the maximal ADP-ribosylation depended on the dose of the acceptor protein; the optimal mass ratio of DNA to the acceptor protein was 1:1 with both p33 and whole histones. DNA decreased the Km for NAD and concomitantly increased the Vmax value, but did not alter the Km for p33. These results are consistent with the idea that p33 may participate in chromatin processes such as replication or transcription, through modification by nuclear ADP-ribosyltransferase.

Preferential ADP-ribosylation of arginine-3 in synthetic heptapeptide Leu-Arg-Arg-Ala-Ser-Leu-Gly.

Hen liver nuclear ADP-ribosyltransferase modified the synthetic heptapeptide Kemptide (Leu-Arg-Arg-Ala-Ser-Leu-Gly) at arginine-2 and/or arginine-3. Trypsin treatment of ADP-ribosyl-Kemptide revealed that the ADP-ribosylation of arginine-3 was constantly more abundant than that of arginine-2. ADP-ribosylation of Kemptide suppressed the subsequent phosphorylation by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase.

ADP-ribosylation suppresses phosphorylation of the L-type pyruvate kinase.

L-type pyruvate kinase (EC 2.7.1.40) purified from pig liver was ADP-ribosylated by incubation with NAD and ADP-ribosyltransferase purified from hen liver nuclei. Maximal incorporation of the ADP-ribose moiety from NAD into the L-type pyruvate kinase was 0.98 mol/mol of subunit. The Km values for NAD and L-type pyruvate kinase were 0.17 mM and 9.7 microM, respectively. ADP-ribosylation of the L-type pyruvate kinase resulted in suppression of the subsequent phosphorylation catalyzed by cAMP-dependent protein kinase. The ADP-ribosylation-induced suppression of phosphorylation of the L-type pyruvate kinase also resulted in suppression of the phosphorylation-induced inactivation. Amino acid analysis, after exhaustive sequential digestion of ADP-ribosyl-L-type pyruvate kinase with pepsin, aminopeptidase M and carboxy-peptidase B showed arginine to be the ADP-ribose-accepting amino acid. These results together with finding of the ADP-ribosyltransferase activity in mammalian liver cytosol (Moss, J. and Stanley, S.J. (1981) J. Biol. Chem. 256, 7830-7833) suggest that ADP-ribosylation may participate in the regulation of the L-type pyruvate kinase activity through changes in the rate of phosphorylation.

ADP-ribosylation of bradykinin and effects on its biological activities.

We investigated the ADP-ribosylation of bradykinin by hen liver nuclear ADP-ribosyltransferase. Two Arg residues of the peptide were modified by this enzyme. Arg1 was preferentially modified as compared to Arg9; the Vmax/Km for Arg1 was 3 times higher than that for Arg9. These results were given support by data observed in experiments with des-Arg1 and des-Arg9 bradykinin; the Vmax/Km for des-Arg9 bradykinin was 3 times that for des-Arg1 bradykinin. ADP-ribosylation suppressed the biological activity of bradykinin, as related to both binding and contractile activities. The extent of ADP-ribosylation-induced suppression of both activities was higher in the case of the modification of Arg1 than that of Arg9. In view of the observation of ADP-ribosyltransferase activity in skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscles (Soman, G. et al. (1984) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 120, 973-980; Shimoyama, M. et al. (1987) in The 8th International Symposium on ADP-Ribosylation, Texas, abstract p. 13), bradykinin functioning in the contraction of smooth muscle may be modified in this way in vivo.

ADP-ribosylation of Ca2+-dependent ATPase in vitro suppresses the enzyme activity.

We investigated the effect on the Ca2+-dependent ATPase activity of ADP-ribosylation of the enzyme from the rabbit skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum. A reconstituted ADP-ribosylation system of Ca2+-dependent ATPase in which the enzyme and ADP-ribosyltransferase, both were partially purified from the vesicles, and poly L-lysine were contained, was preincubated with 1 mM NAD, and the Ca2+-dependent ATPase activity was assayed. The NAD-dependent suppression of the enzyme activity depended on both the concentration of NAD and preincubation-time for the ADP-ribosylation, and was reversed by adding 20 mM arginine during the preincubation. These results taken together with the findings that Ca2+-dependent ATPase is a major acceptor protein for the modification in rabbit skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum [Hara et al. (1987) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 144; 856-862] suggest that Ca2+-transport in the sarcoplasmic reticulum may be regulated through changes in the rate of ADP-ribosylation of Ca2+-dependent ATPase.

Mono(ADP-ribosyl)ation of Ca2+-dependent ATPase in rabbit skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum and the effect of poly L-lysine.

We investigated the endogenous mono(ADP-ribosyl)ation of the sarcoplasmic reticulum from rabbit skeletal muscle. The autoradiogram obtained after sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the [adenylate-32P]NAD-treated sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles revealed a major band corresponding to the MW 105 K Ca2+-dependent ATPase and other bands corresponding to proteins of MW 153, 60 and 38 K and those of 125 to 135 K range. The addition of poly L-lysine during the incubation led to an enhancement of the modification. Poly L-lysine is proving to be a pertinent tool for identifying acceptor proteins.

[Malignant mucosal melanomas of the head and neck--collective review from six cancer hospitals].

Forty-nine patients with mucosal malignant melanoma of the head and neck treated at six cancer hospitals were reviewed. Of the 49 melanomas, 25 were located in the oral cavity and 24 in the nasal or paranasal cavity. Thirty of them were classified as stage I, 14 as stage II, and five as stage III. The initial treatment modality included surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, cryotherapy and immunotherapy in varying combinations. The five-year survival rate was 17.4% for oral melanoma and 19.1% for nasal and paranasal melanoma.

Amino acid sequence of histone H1 at the ADP-ribose-accepting site and ADP-ribose X histone-H1 adduct as an inhibitor of cyclic-AMP-dependent phosphorylation.

The ADP-ribosylation site of histone H1 from calf thymus by purified hen liver nuclear ADP-ribosyltransferase was determined and effects of the ADP-ribose X histone-H1 adduct on cAMP-dependent phosphorylation of the histone H1 were investigated. ADP-ribosylated histone H1 was prepared by incubation of histone H1, 1 mM [adenylate-32P]NAD and the purified ADP-ribosyltransferase. N-Bromosuccinimide-directed bisection of ADP-ribosylated histone H1 showed that the NH2-terminal fragment (Mr = 6000) was modified and contained serine residue 38, the site of phosphorylation by cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Digestion of the NH2-terminal fragment with cathepsin D and trypsin, and purification of this fragment, using high-performance liquid chromatography, yielded a radiolabelled single peptide corresponding to residues 29-34 of histone H1, containing the arginine residue as the ADP-ribosylation site. These results indicate that ADP-ribosylation of histone H1 occurs at the arginine residue 34, sequenced at the NH2-terminal side of the phosphate-accepting serine residue 38. Phosphorylation of histone H1 from calf thymus by cAMP-dependent protein kinase was markedly reduced when histone H1 was ADP-ribosylated. Kinetic studies of phosphorylation revealed that ADP-ribosylated histone H1 was a linear competitive inhibitor of histone H1 and a linear non-competitive inhibitor of ATP.

ADP-ribosylation of phosphorylase kinase and block of phosphate incorporation into the enzyme.

Phosphorylase kinase purified from rabbit skeletal muscle was ADP-ribosylated by hen liver nuclear ADP-ribosyltransferase. This modification, as was seen in cAMP-dependent phosphorylation, was observed only in alpha and beta subunits of the phosphorylase kinase and the latter was more rapidly modified. Analysis of the ADP-ribosylated amino acid residue sequenced in alpha and beta subunits showed that both subunits were modified at the area of the arginine residue. The Km for NAD was 0.10 mM and the pH optimum was 9.0. When the ADP-ribosylated phosphorylase kinase was phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase, a reduction in phosphate incorporation occurred with increase in the ADP-ribosylation. ADP-ribosylation also suppressed autophosphorylation, to a lesser degree than observed with cAMP-dependent phosphorylation. The ADP-ribosylation-dependent reduction of phosphorylation resulted in a suppression of the phosphorylation-dependent activation of the phosphorylase kinase. These results together with findings of ADP-ribosyltransferase activity in the rabbit skeletal muscle [Soman, G. et al. (1984) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 120, 973-980] suggest that ADP-ribosylation participates in the regulation of the phosphorylase kinase activity through changes in the rate of phosphorylation.

Possible participation of Ca2+, Mg2+-dependent endonuclease in liver DNA fragmentation after N-methyl-N-nitrosourea treatment.

We examined the fragmentation of DNA treated with N-methyl-N-nitrosourea under conditions in which Ca2+, Mg2+-dependent endonuclease is active. The molecular mass of DNA found in mouse liver slices treated with methylnitrosurea in the presence of Ca2+ plus Mg2+ was 4 X 10(5) Da. Similar results were obtained with a reconstituted system containing partially purified Ca2+, Mg2+-dependent endonuclease and methylnitrosurea-treated DNA. The enzyme extensively cleaved methylnitrosurea-treated DNA, compared with non-treated DNA. The methylnitrosurea-treated nuclear proteins obtained from mouse liver nuclei had no effect on the DNA fragmentation by the enzyme. Using closed-circular DNA treated with methylnitrosurea, the enzyme produced single-strand cuts in the DNA, as was seen in non-treated, closed-circular DNA, however, the rate of hydrolysis was increased. Ca2+, Mg2+-dependent endonuclease thus warrants further investigation, with regard to the precise mechanism of extensive degradation of DNA in cells treated with carcinogenic alkylating agents.

ADP-ribosyltransferase from hen liver nuclei. Purification and characterization.

Chromatin-bound ADP-ribosyltransferase from adult hen liver nuclei was purified to a homogeneous state through salt extraction, gel filtration, hydroxyapatite, phenyl-Sepharose, Cm-cellulose, and DNA-Sepharose. The ADP-ribosyltransferase has a pH optimum at 9.0 and does not require DNA for reaction. The purified enzyme has a molecular weight of 27,500 +/- 500. Agmatine sulfate, arginine methyl ester, histones, and casein proved to be effective acceptors for the ADP-ribose molecule. Among histones, H3 was most active, followed by H2a, H4, and H2b, in that order, the lowest activity seen with H1. With all the acceptors tested, the rate of nicotinamide release was in excess of the ADP-ribosylation. However, changes in the ratio of nicotinamide release to ADP-ribosylation seemed to depend on concentrations of the acceptor used. ADP-ribose-whole histones X adducts formed by ADP-ribosyltransferase served as initiators for poly(ADP-ribose) synthesis when these adducts were incubated in the presence of NAD, DNA, Mg2+, and the purified poly(ADP-ribose) synthetase, in which poly(ADP-ribose) formation can occur.

ADP-ribosylation regulates the phosphorylation of histones by the catalytic subunit of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase.

Phosphorylation of whole histones from calf thymus by the catalytic subunit of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase was markedly reduced when the histones were ADP-ribosylated. NAD, nicotinamide or free ADP-ribose molecule did not suppress the phosphorylation. Urea gel electrophoretic analyses of the phosphorylated histones which had already been ADP-ribosylated revealed that the suppression of phosphorylation occurred in both H1 and core histones. Therefore, the possibility that ADP-ribosylation may regulate the phosphorylation of histones phosphorylation in nuclei warrants further investigation.

Mg2+-dependent/poly(ADP-ribose)-sensitive endonuclease.

A novel endonuclease from adult hen liver nuclei has been purified to a homogeneous state through salt extraction, ammonium sulfate fractionation, gel filtration, acetone fractionation, and successive chromatography of 1) hydroxyapatite and DNA Sepharose and 2) hydroxyapatite and isoelectric focusing. The endonuclease has a pH optimum at 9.0 and requires Mg2+ for activity. The enzyme hydrolyzes more rapidly in the order of polynucleotide: denatured DNA = rRNA greater than poly(dA) = poly(dT) greater than poly(dC) = poly(dG) greater than native DNA. This endonuclease degrades denatured DNA about 20 times more rapidly than does the native DNA. The products contain 5'-phosphoryl and 3'-hydroxyl termini and all four deoxynucleotides are present while dGMP is predominant. The enzyme cleaves the circular duplex PM2 DNA, endonucleotically, via single strand scission. The isoelectric point is 10.2 +/- 0.2 and the molecular weight is 43,000 +/- 2,000, determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and gel filtration. Pyridoxal 5'-phosphate and 2,3-butanedione inhibit the catalytic activity, respectively. The inhibition of DNA binding activity was also seen with former, but not with the latter. Purified Mg2+-dependent alkaline endonuclease was used to investigate the nature of poly(ADP-ribose) inhibition of the enzyme. In contrast to the Ca2+/Mg2+-dependent endonuclease (Yoshihara, K., Tanigawa, Y., Burzio, L., and Koide, S. S. (1975) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 72, 289-293), ADP-ribosylation of the endonuclease protein was not observed. When 100 ng of the poly(ADP-ribose) having four to five ADP-ribose units per molecule were added to the nuclease assay system (total volume of 0.2 ml) 14% inhibition was observed, and increase in the chain length increased the inhibition. When 100 ng of poly(ADP-ribose) consisting of 20 or more units of the ADP-ribose per mol were added, the inhibition was over 95%. The possible role of the poly(ADP-ribose)-sensitive endonuclease is discussed.

Mono (ADP-ribosyl)ation of hen liver nuclear proteins suppresses phosphorylation.

The phosphorylation of nuclear proteins from hen liver nuclei was suppressed under conditions of incubation with NAD. The reconstituted protein kinase assay system containing heat-treated and subsequently ADP-ribosylated nuclei and NI type protein kinase revealed that the ADP-ribosylated nuclear proteins are poor acceptors for the phosphorylation reaction. Therefore, mono(ADP-ribosyl)ation may contribute to the regulation of phosphorylation reaction in nuclei.
