Abstract
We have examined the possible role of adenosine 3',5'-phosphate (cAMP) in functions associated with the plasma membranes of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Purified membranes from this source contained an adenylate cyclase which was insensitive to activation by fluoride or guanine nucleotides, only weakly responsive to changes of carbon source in the growth medium, and strongly stimulated by vanadate. They also contained at least two classes of receptor proteins for guanine nucleotides (as measured by binding of labeled 5'-guanylyl methylene diphosphate) with apparent dissociation constants equal to 1.0 x 10(-7) and 3 x 10(-6) M, a protein kinase capable of phosphorylating added histones, the activity of which was stimulated by cAMP, and cAMP receptors that may function as regulatory subunits for this kinase. Membrane proteins were also susceptible to phosphorylation by endogenous kinase(s), with polypeptides of apparent molecular weights equal to 160 x 10(3), 135 x 10(3), 114 x 10(3), and 58 x 10(3) as the major targets. Of these, the 114,000-molecular-weight polypeptide was probably identical to the proton-translocating ATPase of the membranes. However, the cAMP-dependent protein kinase did not appear to be involved in these reactions. Intact (rho+ or rho0) cells responded to dissipation of the proton electrochemical gradient across their plasma membranes by rapid and transient changes in their intracellular level of cAMP, as suggested earlier (J. M. Trevillyan and M. L. Pall, J. Bacteriol., 138:397-403, 1979). Thus, although yeast plasma membranes contain all the essential components of a stimulus-responsive adenylate cyclase system, the precise nature of the coupling device and the targets involved remain to be established.

Abstract
We show that the yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, contains two cAMP-binding proteins in addition to the well-characterized regulatory (R) subunit of cytoplasmic cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA). We provide evidence that they comprise a new type of cAMP receptor, membrane-anchored by covalently attached lipid structures. They are genetically not related to the cytoplasmic R subunit. The respective proteins can be detected in sral mutants, in which the gene for the R subunit of PKA has been disrupted and a monoclonal antibody raised against the cytoplasmic R subunit does not cross-react with the two membrane-bound cAMP-binding proteins. In addition, they differ from the cytoplasmic species also with respect to their location and the peptide maps of the photoaffinity-labeled proteins. Although they differ from one another in molecular mass and subcellular location, peptide maps of the cAMP-binding domains resemble each other and both proteins are membrane-anchored by lipid structures, one to the outer surface of the plasma membrane, the other to the outer surface of the inner mitochondrial membrane. Both anchors can be metabolically labeled by Etn, myo-Ins and fatty acids. In addition, the anchor structure of the cAMP receptor from plasma membranes can be radiolabeled by GlcN and Man. After cleavage of the anchor with glycosylphosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C from trypanosomes, the solubilized cAMP-binding protein from plasma membranes reacts with antibodies which specifically recognize the cross-reacting determinant from soluble trypanosomal coat protein, suggesting similarity of the anchors. Degradation studies also point to the glycosylphosphatidylinositol nature of the anchor from the plasma membrane, whereas the mitochondrial counterpart is less complex in that it lacks carbohydrates. The plasma membrane cAMP receptor is, in addition, modified by an N-glycosidically linked carbohydrate side chain, responsible mainly for its higher molecular mass.

Abstract
Purified plasma membranes from the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae bind about 1.2 pmol of cAMP/mg of protein with high affinity (Kd = 6 nM). By using photoaffinity labeling with 8-N3-[32P]cAMP, we have identified in plasma membrane vesicles a cAMP-binding protein (Mr = 54,000) that is present also in bcy1 disruption mutants, lacking the cytoplasmic R subunit of protein kinase A (PKA). This argues that it is genetically unrelated to PKA. Neither high salt, nor alkaline carbonate, nor cAMP extract the protein from the membrane, suggesting that it is not peripherally bound. The observation that (glycosyl)phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipases (or nitrous acid) release the amphiphilic protein from the membrane, thereby converting it to a hydrophilic form, indicates anchorage by a glycolipidic membrane anchor. Treatment with N-glycanase reduces the Mr to 44,000-46,000 indicative of a modification by N-linked carbohydrate side chain(s). In addition to the action of a phospholipase, the efficient release from the membrane requires the removal of the carbohydrate side chain(s) or the presence of high salt or methyl alpha-mannopyranoside, suggesting complex interactions with the membrane involving not only the glycolipidic anchor but also the glycan side chain(s). Topological studies show that the protein is exposed to the periplasmic space, raising intriguing questions for the function of this protein.

Abstract
A cAMP-binding protein is found to be integrated into the inner mitochondrial membrane of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae under normal conditions. It resists solubilization by high salt and chaotropic agents. The protein is, however, converted to a soluble form which then resides in the intermembrane space, when isolated mitochondria are incubated with low concentrations of calcium. Phospholipids or diacylglycerol (or analogues) dramatically increases the efficiency of receptor release from the inner membrane, whereas these compounds alone are ineffective. Also, cAMP does not effect or enhance liberation from the membrane of the cAMP-binding protein. Photoaffinity labeling with 8-N3-[32P]cAMP followed by mitochondrial subfractionation and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis does not reveal differences in the apparent molecular weight between the membrane-bound and the soluble form of the cAMP receptor. The two forms differ, however, in their partitioning behavior in Triton X-114 as well as in their protease resistance, indicating that the release from the membrane is accompanied by a change in lipophilicity and conformation of the receptor protein. Evidence is presented that a change of the intramitochondrial location of the yeast cAMP-binding protein also occurs in vivo and leads to the activation of a mitochondrial cAMP-dependent protein kinase. The cAMP-binding protein is the first example of a mitochondrial protein with amphitropic character; i.e., it has the property to occur in two different locations, as a membrane-embedded and a soluble form.

Abstract
The subcellular distribution of the regulatory subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase in Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells was determined by subcellular fractionation and indirect immunofluorescence microscopy using the bcy1 mutant deficient in the regulatory subunit as control. The regulatory subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase showing cAMP-binding activity was identified as a single protein of 50 kDa by photoaffinity labeling and immunoblotting. The regulatory subunit was concentrated in a nuclear fraction in addition to a cytoplasmic fraction. By comparison of the regulatory subunit distribution with the DNA localization, the area detected by the indirect immunofluorescence was identified as the nucleus.

Abstract
Using an anti-yeast regulatory subunit antibody and the synthetic peptide Kemptide as specific substrate we show in this work that purified preparations of yeast plasma membrane have an associated form of the regulatory subunit and cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity. Treatment of the plasma membrane "in vitro" with 1 microM cAMP releases cAMP-independent protein kinase activity while regulatory subunit remains on the membrane as revealed by immunoblotting. Incubation of the plasma membrane with [gamma-32P]ATP results in the phosphorylation of the regulatory subunit.

Abstract
We have isolated a cAMP-binding protein from highly purified yeast mitochondria by affinity chromatography. It is a lipophilic protein of molecular mass 45 000 Da, which is tightly membrane-bound and localized on the outer surface of the inner membrane. It can be solubilized in active form under mild conditions. The cAMP receptor resembles mitochondrial RNA polymerase prepared as described by Levens et al. [(1981) J. Biol. Chem. 256, 1474] in a surprisingly large number of properties including molecular mass. Comparison of the two proteins revealed that the polypeptide previously considered as RNA polymerase is, in fact, a mitochondrial cAMP receptor protein.

Abstract
We have identified and characterized a cyclic AMP receptor protein in mitochondria of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The binding is specific for cyclic nucleotides, particularly for cyclic AMP which is bound with high affinity (Kd of 10(-9) M) at 1 to 5 pmol/mg of mitochondrial protein. The mitochondrial cyclic AMP receptor is synthesized on cytoplasmic ribosomes and has an apparent molecular weight of 45,000 as determined by photoaffinity labeling. It is localized in the inner mitochondrial membrane and faces the intermembrane space. Cross-contamination of mitochondrial inner membranes by plasma membranes or soluble cytoplasmic proteins is excluded.

Abstract
A new procedure for large-scale preparation of plasma-membrane-bound ATPase from Saccharomyces cerevisiae is described. The crude membrane fraction is purified by selective extraction with three successive detergents: deoxycholate (0.25 mg/mg protein), Triton X-100 (0.25%) and lysophosphatidylcholine (1 mg/mg protein). These treatments extract the mitochondria and strip the plasma membrane. From 1 kg commercial baker's yeast, 200 mg of plasma membrane proteins are isolated in 2--3 days. Plasma-membrane-bound ATPase of specific activity of 10--13 mumol Pi x min-1 x mg protein-1 is obtained with a yield estimated to 60%. Dodecylsulfate/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis shows three predominant polypeptides of Mr = 95000, 70000 and 56000 in the purified membrane fraction. The major polypeptide of Mr = 95000 identified as the ATPase subunit is phosphorylated by millimolar concentrations of ATP. The phosphorylated intermediate reaches the steady-state level in less than 100 ms and turns over very rapidly. It is hydrolyzed by hydroxylamine. Its formation is prevented by the ATPase inhibitors vanadate and Dio-9, a plasma-membrane ATPase inhibitor of unknown structure. At least four other membrane proteins are phosphorylated with much slower kinetics, presumably through the action of protein-kinase(s).

Abstract
Tumour Leydig cells have been incubated in the presence or absence of lutropin (luteinizing hormone, ;LH'). Stimulation of cells with lutropin (1000ng/ml) in the presence of 1-methyl-3-isobutylxanthine (0.25mm) resulted in increased steroid production and increased protein phosphorylation. When pregnenolone metabolism was inhibited, basal pregnenolone production was 26.9+/-7.4ng/60min per 10(6) cells; stimulated production was 156.1+/-39.5ng/60min per 10(6) cells (means+/-s.d., n=4). Lutropin-dependent phosphorylated proteins of molecular mass 17000, 22000, 24000, 33000 and 57000Da were detected. A significant increase of [(32)P]P(i) incorporation into these phosphorylated proteins was observed concomitant with the increased pregnenolone production. The occurrence of the phosphoproteins in nuclei, mitochondria and postmitochondrial-supernatant was investigated. The 17000Da phosphoprotein was found in the nuclear fraction, whereas the 22000, 24000, 33000 and 57000Da phosphoproteins were localized in the postmitochondrial-supernatant fraction. Of the cholesterol-side-chain-cleavage activity, 80.3+/-6.1% (mean+/-s.d., n=5) was present in the mitochondrial fraction isolated from tumour Leydig cells, and this activity was 2.5-fold increased when cells had been preincubated with lutropin/1-methyl-3-isobutylxanthine (basal production: 194.6+/-28.6ng/30min per mg of protein; lutropinstimulated production: 498.8+/-91.5ng/30min per mg of protein; means+/-s.d., n=3). The similarities in the kinetics of the phosphorylation of proteins and the pregnenolone production after addition of lutropin/1-methyl-3-isobutylxanthine indicate that the phosphoproteins could be involved in the lutropin-dependent increase in steroidogenesis in tumour Leydig cells. It remains to be demonstrated, however, to what extent the phosphoproteins outside the mitochondria can influence the cholesterol-side-chain-cleavage activity inside the mitochondria.
