Abstract
The catalytic activity of guanylate cyclase (GCase) coupled to atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) receptor depends on the metal co-factor, Mn2+ or Mg2+. ATP synergistically stimulates the ANP-stimulated GCase in the presence of Mg2+. We have now shown the ATP regulation of the ANP-stimulated GCase in the presence of Mn2+ in rat lung membranes. ANP stimulated the GCase 2.1-fold compared to the control. ATP enhanced both the basal (basal-GCase) and the ANP-stimulated GCase maximally 1.7- and 2.3- fold compared to the control, respectively, at a concentration of 0.1 mM. The stimulation by ATP was smaller in the presence of Mn2+ than in the presence of Mg2+. The addition of inorganic phosphate to the reaction mixture altered the GCase activities in the presence of Mn2+ with or without ANP and/or ATP. In the presence of 10 mM phosphate, ATP dose-dependently stimulated the basal GCase 5-fold compared to the control at a concentration of 1 mM and augmented the ANP-stimulated GCase, which was 4.2-fold compared to the basal-GCase, 5.5-fold compared to the control at a concentration of 0.5 mM. Protein phosphatase inhibitors, okadaic acid (100 nM), H8 (1 microM) and staurosporin (1 microM), did not alter the activity. Orthovanadate (1 mM), an inorganic phosphate analogue, significantly stimulated both the basal-GCase and the ANP-stimulated GCase, which were inhibited by ATP. It was assumed that phosphate and orthovanadate might interact with the GCase to regulate the activity in the opposite manner. This was the first report that inorganic phosphate and orthovanadate affected the ATP-regulation of the ANP-stimulated GCase in the presence of Mn2+.
