Abstract
Brain ischemia and reperfusion engage multiple independently-fatal terminal pathways involving loss of membrane integrity in partitioning ions, progressive proteolysis, and inability to check these processes because of loss of general translation competence and reduced survival signal-transduction. Ischemia results in rapid loss of high-energy phosphate compounds and generalized depolarization, which induces release of glutamate and, in selectively vulnerable neurons (SVNs), opening of both voltage-dependent and glutamate-regulated calcium channels. This allows a large increase in cytosolic Ca(2+) associated with activation of mu-calpain, calcineurin, and phospholipases with consequent proteolysis of calpain substrates (including spectrin and eIF4G), activation of NOS and potentially of Bad, and accumulation of free arachidonic acid, which can induce depletion of Ca(2+) from the ER lumen. A kinase that shuts off translation initiation by phosphorylating the alpha-subunit of eukaryotic initiation factor-2 (eIF2alpha) is activated either by adenosine degradation products or depletion of ER lumenal Ca(2+). Early during reperfusion, oxidative metabolism of arachidonate causes a burst of excess oxygen radicals, iron is released from storage proteins by superoxide-mediated reduction, and NO is generated. These events result in peroxynitrite generation, inappropriate protein nitrosylation, and lipid peroxidation, which ultrastructurally appears to principally damage the plasmalemma of SVNs. The initial recovery of ATP supports very rapid eIF2alpha phosphorylation that in SVNs is prolonged and associated with a major reduction in protein synthesis. High catecholamine levels induced by the ischemic episode itself and/or drug administration down-regulate insulin secretion and induce inhibition of growth-factor receptor tyrosine kinase activity, effects associated with down-regulation of survival signal-transduction through the Ras pathway. Caspase activation occurs during the early hours of reperfusion following mitochondrial release of caspase 9 and cytochrome c. The SVNs find themselves with substantial membrane damage, calpain-mediated proteolytic degradation of eIF4G and cytoskeletal proteins, altered translation initiation mechanisms that substantially reduce total protein synthesis and impose major alterations in message selection, down-regulated survival signal-transduction, and caspase activation. This picture argues powerfully that, for therapy of brain ischemia and reperfusion, the concept of single drug intervention (which has characterized the approaches of basic research, the pharmaceutical industry, and clinical trials) cannot be effective. Although rigorous study of multi-drug protocols is very demanding, effective therapy is likely to require (1) peptide growth factors for early activation of survival-signaling pathways and recovery of translation competence, (2) inhibition of lipid peroxidation, (3) inhibition of calpain, and (4) caspase inhibition. Examination of such protocols will require not only characterization of functional and histopathologic outcome, but also study of biochemical markers of the injury processes to establish the role of each drug.

Abstract
Transient transfection of COS-1 cells with an expression vector for NIPP-1, a nuclear subunit of protein phosphatase-1, did not result in an overexpression of NIPP-1 protein, although the levels of mRNA encoding NIPP-1 increased dramatically. Moreover, high concentrations of NIPP-1 mRNA inhibited the translation in reticulocyte lysates of various unrelated mRNAs. This inhibition of translation was caused by the NIPP-1 messenger and not by the translation product, since mutation of the start codon abolished NIPP-1 protein production, but had no influence on the translational inhibition. Analysis of deletion mutants showed that the inhibition was mediated by a 0.5-kb fragment in the 5'-end of the NIPP-1 mRNA. This region, when inserted in the 5'-untranslated region of the beta-galactosidase messenger, inhibited the translation of beta-galactosidase mRNA in COS-1 cells. A predicted highly stable secondary structure deltaG = -239.5 kJ/mol) is present between residues 300 and 500 of NIPP-1 mRNA. The possible importance of this structure in the translational inhibition is discussed.

Abstract
About 4% of the spontaneous phosphorylase phosphatase activity in a rat liver extract was associated with the ribosomal fraction and stemmed from both protein phosphatase-1 (PP-1) and protein phosphatase-2A (PP-2A). However, after repeated washing, only PP-1 remained bound to the ribosomes. The activity of ribosome-associated PP-1 (PP-1R) was partially latent and could be increased 2-3-fold by incubation with trypsin and an additional 50% by incubation with low concentrations of exogenous type-1 catalytic subunit. In contrast, incubation of the ribosomal fraction with MgATP resulted in a 50% drop in the activity of PP-1R. We have purified from a ribosomal extract a basic polypeptide (pI > or = 10.5) of 23 kDa that potently inhibited PP-1. This ribosomal inhibitor of PP-1, termed RIPP-1, was at least 30-times less efficient in inhibiting other major Ser/Thr protein phosphatases (PP-2A, PP-2B and PP-2C). RIPP-1 was identified as a non-competitive inhibitor of PP-1 with a substrate-dependent potency. The lowest Ki (approximately 20 nM) was obtained with phosphorylase and myelin basic protein as substrates. Besides instantaneously inhibiting the type-1 catalytic subunit, RIPP-1 also converted the catalytic subunit in a time-dependent manner (t 1/2 = 45 min at 25 degrees C) into a less active conformation. Unlike the inhibition, this slow inactivation was not reversed by the removal of RIPP-1. We propose that RIPP-1 accounts, at least in part, for the latency of PP-1R.

Abstract
Most protein kinases catalyze autophosphorylation, a process which is generally intramolecular and is modulated by regulatory ligands. Either serine/threonine or tyrosine serves as the phosphoacceptor, and several sites on the same kinase subunit are usually autophosphorylated. Autophosphorylation affects the functional properties of most protein kinases. Members of the protein kinase family exhibit diversity in the characteristics and functions of autophosphorylation, but certain common themes are emerging.

Abstract
We have examined inhibition of swelling-induced K-Cl cotransport in rabbit red blood cells by calyculin A, a potent serine-threonine protein phosphatase inhibitor, to determine whether transport is regulated by phosphatase type 1 or type 2A. Calyculin A blocks K(Rb) influx [half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) = 3-6 nM] 10 times more potently than a second phosphatase inhibitor, okadaic acid (IC50 = 40 nM), consistent with earlier pharmacological studies showing that calyculin A inhibits phosphatase type 1 10 times more effectively than does okadaic acid. Calyculin A always inhibits Rb influx when added either before or after cell swelling, indicating that the phosphatase must operate continually to first activate and then maintain high transport rates in swollen cells. Similarly, N-ethylmaleimide (NEM) fails to stimulate K-Cl cotransport only when added to cells pretreated with calyculin A. Therefore, like cell swelling, activation of K-Cl cotransport by NEM involves a phosphatase sensitive to calyculin A. We conclude that cell swelling and NEM activate K-Cl cotransport via a net dephosphorylation that appears to involve protein phosphatase type 1.

Abstract
Type 1 protein phosphatases (PP-1) comprise a group of widely distributed enzymes that specifically dephosphorylate serine and threonine residues of certain phosphoproteins. They all contain an isoform of the same catalytic subunit, which has an extremely conserved primary structure. One of the properties of PP-1 that allows one to distinguish them from other serine/threonine protein phosphatases is their sensitivity to inhibition by two proteins, termed inhibitor 1 and inhibitor 2, or modulator. The latter protein can also form a 1:1 complex with the catalytic subunit that slowly inactivates upon incubation. This complex is reactivated in vitro by incubation with MgATP and protein kinase FA/GSK-3. In the cell the type 1 catalytic subunit is associated with noncatalytic subunits that determine the activity, the substrate specificity, and the subcellular location of the phosphatase. PP-1 plays an essential role in glycogen metabolism, calcium transport, muscle contraction, intracellular transport, protein synthesis, and cell division. The activity of PP-1 is regulated by hormones like insulin, glucagon, alpha- and beta-adrenergic agonists, glucocorticoids, and thyroid hormones.

Abstract
We have examined the phosphorylation of the alpha-subunit of initiation factor-2 (eIF-2 alpha) in reticulocyte lysates in which translational shut-off was induced by haem-deficiency or by double-stranded RNA. To maximise the phosphorylation of eIF-2 alpha, lysates were supplemented with the broad spectrum phosphatase inhibitor microcystin. Under all conditions tested, serine-51 was the only residue to become labelled. This is consistent with the observation of only two species of eIF-2 alpha in isoelectric focusing/immunoblotting analyses of lysates treated as described above.

Abstract
The type-1 protein phosphatase associated with hepatic microsomes has been distinguished from the glycogen-bound enzyme in five ways. (1) The phosphorylase phosphatase/synthase phosphatase activity ratio of the microsomal enzyme (measured using muscle phosphorylase a and glycogen synthase (labelled in sites-3) as substrates) was 50-fold higher than that of the glycogen-bound enzyme. (2) The microsomal enzyme had a greater sensitivity to inhibitors-1 and 2. (3) Release of the catalytic subunit from the microsomal type-1 phosphatase by tryptic digestion was accompanied by a 2-fold increase in synthase phosphatase activity, whereas release of the catalytic subunit from the glycogen-bound enzyme decreased synthase phosphatase activity by 60%. (4) 95% of the synthase phosphatase activity was released from the microsomes with 0.3 M NaCl, whereas little activity could be released from the glycogen fraction with salt. (5) The type-1 phosphatase separated from glycogen by anion-exchange chromatography could be rebound to glycogen, whereas the microsomal enzyme (separated from the microsomes by the same procedure, or by extraction with NaCl) could not. These findings indicate that the synthase phosphatase activity of the microsomal enzyme is not explained by contamination with glycogen-bound enzyme. The microsomal and glycogen-associated enzymes may contain a common catalytic subunit complexed to microsomal and glycogen-binding subunits, respectively. Thiophosphorylase a was a potent inhibitor of the dephosphorylation of ribosomal protein S6, HMG-CoA reductase and glycogen synthase, by the glycogen-associated type-1 protein phosphatase. By contrast, thiophosphorylase a did not inhibit the dephosphorylation of S6 or HMG-CoA reductase by the microsomal enzyme, although the dephosphorylation of glycogen synthase was inhibited. The I50 for inhibition of synthase phosphatase activity by thiophosphorylase a catalysed by either the glycogen-associated or microsomal type-1 phosphatases, or for inhibition of S6 phosphatase activity catalysed by the glycogen-associated enzyme, was decreased 20-fold to 5-10 nM in the presence of glycogen. The results suggest that the physiologically relevant inhibitor of the glycogen-associated type-1 phosphatase is the phosphorylase a-glycogen complex, and that inhibition of the microsomal type-1 phosphatase by phosphorylase a is unlikely to play a role in the hormonal control of cholesterol or protein synthesis. Protein phosphatase-1 appears to be the principal S6 phosphatase in mammalian liver acting on the serine residues phosphorylated by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase.

Abstract
The recycling of eukaryotic initiation factor eIF-2 requires the exchange of GDP for GTP, in a reaction catalyzed by the reversing factor (RF). Recent studies have suggested that a 60 S ribosomal subunit-bound eIF-2.GDP complex is an intermediate in protein chain initiation. We have monitored the distribution of RF in heme-deficient and dsRNA-inhibited lysates by immunoblot analysis of sucrose gradient fractions and have compared the distribution with that of eIF-2(alpha-32P). RF and eIF-2(alpha P) were both found to be tightly associated with 60 S and 80 S ribosomes, as their distribution did not change in gradients containing up to 0.1 M K+. The association of eIF-2(alpha-32P) and RF with 60 S and 80 S ribosomes was enhanced in the presence of F-, indicating the presence of an endogenous ribosome-associated phosphatase activity which is capable of dephosphorylating eIF-2(alpha P) in the absence of F-. These observations are consistent with the hypothesis that under physiologic conditions, RF interacts with the 60 S-bound eIF-2.GDP complex to promote the dissociation of GDP from eIF-2 and the release of eIF-2 from the 60 S subunit as a complex with RF.

Abstract
Rat liver nuclei contain a protein phosphatase that is indistinguishable from the catalytic subunit of protein phosphatase-1 in its molecular mass, sensitivity to inhibitor-1 and inhibitor-2 and specificity for the beta-subunit of phosphorylase kinase. This activity is not bound to the outer nuclear membrane, but located within the nucleus. The average level of protein phosphatase-1 activity in nuclei is at least 5-fold higher than its average extranuclear concentration.

Abstract
Glycogen synthase (labelled in sites-3) and glycogen phosphorylase from rabbit skeletal muscle were used as substrates to investigate the nature of the protein phosphatases that act on these proteins in the glycogen and microsomal fractions of rat liver. Under the assay conditions employed, glycogen synthase phosphatase and phosphorylase phosphatase activities in both subcellular fractions could be inhibited 80-90% by inhibitor-1 or inhibitor-2, and the concentrations required for half-maximal inhibition were similar. Glycogen synthase phosphatase and phosphorylase phosphatase activities coeluted from Sephadex G-100 as broad peaks, stretching from the void volume to an apparent molecular mass of about 50 kDa. Incubation with trypsin decreased the apparent molecular mass of both activities to about 35 kDa, and decreased their I50 for inhibitors-1 and -2 in an identical manner. After tryptic digestion, the I50 values for inhibitors-1 and -2 were very similar to those of the catalytic subunit of protein phosphatase-1 from rabbit skeletal muscle. The glycogen and microsomal fractions of rat liver dephosphorylated the beta-subunit of phosphorylase kinase much faster than the alpha-subunit and dephosphorylation of the beta-subunit was prevented by the same concentrations of inhibitor-1 and inhibitor-2 that were required to inhibit the dephosphorylation of phosphorylase. The same experiments performed with the glycogen plus microsomal fraction from rabbit skeletal muscle revealed that the properties of glycogen synthase phosphatase and phosphorylase phosphatase were very similar to the corresponding activities in the hepatic glycogen fraction, except that the two activities coeluted as sharp peaks near the void volume of Sephadex G-100 (before tryptic digestion). Tryptic digestion of the hepatic glycogen and microsomal fractions increased phosphorylase phosphatase about threefold, but decreased glycogen synthase phosphatase activity. Similar results were obtained with the glycogen plus microsomal fraction from rabbit skeletal muscle or the glycogen-bound form of protein phosphatase-1 purified to homogeneity from the same tissue. Therefore the divergent effects of trypsin on glycogen synthase phosphatase and phosphorylase phosphatase activities are an intrinsic property of protein phosphatase-1. It is concluded that the major protein phosphatase in both the glycogen and microsomal fractions of rat liver is a form of protein phosphatase-1, and that this enzyme accounts for virtually all the glycogen synthase phosphatase and phosphorylase phosphatase activity associated with these subcellular fractions.

Abstract
The time course of the reduction in brain protein synthesis following transient bilateral ischemia in the gerbil was characterized and compared with changes in a number of metabolites related to brain energy metabolism. The recovery of brain protein synthesis was similar following ischemic periods of 5, 10, or 20 min; in vitro incorporation activity of brain supernatants was reduced to approximately 10% of control at 10 or 30 min recirculation, showed slight recovery at 60 min, and returned to 60% of control activity by 4 h. Protein synthesis activity was indistinguishable from control at 24 h. One minute of ischemia produced no detectable effect on protein synthesis measured after 30 min reperfusion; longer periods of ischemia resulted in progressive inhibition, with 5 min producing the maximal effect. Pentobarbital (50 mg/kg) increased by 1-2 min the threshold ischemic duration required to produce a given effect. Whereas most metabolites recovered quickly following 5 min ischemia, glycogen showed a delayed recovery comparable to that seen for protein synthesis. These results are discussed in relation to possible mechanisms for the coordinate regulation of brain energy metabolism and protein synthesis. An improved method for the fluorimetric measurement of guanine nucleotides is described.

Abstract
Previous studies indicated that the species of type 1 and type 2 protein phosphatases (PP-1, PP-2) in rabbit reticulocytes are similar to those of rabbit skeletal muscle and rabbit liver. Reticulocyte PP-1 was found to be selectively inhibited by the heat stable protein phosphatase inhibitor-2 (I-2) from rabbit skeletal muscle. Of interest was the observation that muscle I-2 appeared to regulate protein synthesis in reticulocyte lysates by inhibiting an eIF-2 alpha phosphatase with type 1 properties. In this study we have characterized reticulocyte inhibitor-2 (I-2) and find that its properties are similar to those of skeletal muscle I-2. (i) Both I-2 species are stable to boiling and to acid treatment, and have similar chromatographic profiles on DEAE-cellulose and on Blue Sepharose CL-6B.

Abstract
Protein phosphorylation is a principal regulatory mechanism in the control of almost all cellular processes. The nature of the protein phosphatases that participate in these reactions has been a subject of controversy. Four enzymes, termed protein phosphatases 1, 2A, 2B, and 2C, account for virtually all of the phosphatase activity toward phosphoproteins involved in controlling glycogen metabolism, glycolysis, gluconeogenesis, fatty acid synthesis, cholesterol synthesis, and protein synthesis. The properties, physiological roles, and mechanisms for regulating the four protein phosphatases are reviewed.

Abstract
Two homogeneous protein phosphatases, termed 'smooth muscle phosphatase-I' and 'smooth muscle phosphatase-II', isolated from turkey gizzard as enzymes active against the 20-kDa light chain of smooth muscle myosin, and a third homogeneous protein phosphatase from rabbit reticulocytes, purified as an enzyme active against protein synthesis initiation factor eIF-2, were classified using the criteria defined by Ingebritsen and Cohen [Eur. J. Biochem. (1983) 132, 255-261]. All three enzymes were type-2 protein phosphatases based on their specificity for the alpha-subunit of phosphorylase kinase and insensitivity to inhibitor-1 and inhibitor-2. The substrate specificities of smooth muscle phosphatase-I and the eIF-2 phosphatase were similar to the catalytic subunit of protein phosphatase-2A. Smooth muscle phosphatase-I could be designated as protein phosphatase-2A1 and eIF-2 phosphatase as protein phosphatase-2A2 on the basis of their subunit compositions. The substrate specificity, dependence of activity on Mg2+ and subunit composition of smooth muscle phosphatase-II allowed its assignment as protein phosphatase-2C.

Abstract
Methods were developed for quantifying protein phosphatases-1, 2A, 2B and 2C in cell extracts, and these procedures were exploited to determine their tissue and subcellular distributions. In addition, the contribution of each enzyme to the total protein phosphatase activity in skeletal muscle and liver extracts towards nine proteins involved in the control of glycogen metabolism, glycolysis/gluconeogenesis, fatty acid synthesis and cholesterol synthesis was assessed. Each protein phosphatase was present at significant concentrations in skeletal muscle, heart muscle, liver, brain and adipose tissue, although the relative amounts differed considerably. In skeletal muscle, protein phosphatase-1 was the major enzyme acting on phosphorylase, glycogen synthase and phosphorylase kinase (beta-subunit), and thus was the major protein phosphatase responsible for the inactivation of glycogenolysis and stimulation of glycogen synthesis. This idea was reinforced by the observation that 50% of the protein phosphatase-1 activity was associated with the protein-glycogen complex. In the liver, protein phosphatases-1, 2A and 2C each appear to play a role in the regulation of glycogen metabolism. Protein phosphatase-1 accounted for a significant fraction of the total potential activity towards phosphorylase and glycogen synthase, and was the major phosphorylase kinase (beta-subunit) phosphatase of this tissue. In addition, it was the only protein phosphatase present in the protein-glycogen complex. Protein phosphatase 2A was also a major phosphorylase phosphatase and glycogen synthase phosphatase in this tissue. Protein phosphatase 2C was a significant glycogen synthase phosphatase in the liver, but had negligible activity toward phosphorylase or phosphorylase kinase (beta-subunit). In the absence of Ca2+, protein phosphatase 2A was the major phosphorylase kinase (alpha-subunit) phosphatase and the only inhibitor-1 phosphatase, in skeletal muscle or liver. In the presence of Ca2+, protein phosphatase 2B accounted for most of the activity towards these substrates. Protein phosphatase 2A was the major enzyme acting on L-pyruvate kinase, ATP-citrate lyase and acetyl-CoA carboxylase in rat liver, suggesting an important role in the regulation of glycolysis/gluconeogenesis and fatty acid synthesis. Protein phosphatase 2C was the major enzyme acting on hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA (HMG-CoA) reductase and HMG-CoA reductase kinase, suggesting an important role in the regulation of cholesterol synthesis. However, the observation that 20% of the protein phosphatase-1 in liver was associated with the microsomal fraction suggests that this enzyme may also be involved in regulating HMG-CoA reductase, which is tightly associated with microsomes. The activity of protein phosphatase-1 in dilute skeletal muscle and liver extracts was just as sensitive to inhibitor-1 and inhibitor-2 as the purified enzyme. In concentrated extracts, higher concentrations of the inhibitor proteins were required and the inhibition was time-dependent...
