Abstract
The calcium-regulated phosphodiesterase 1 (PDE1) family is highly expressed in the brain, but its functional role in neurones is poorly understood. Using the selective PDE1 inhibitor Lu AF64196 and biosensors for cyclic nucleotides including a novel biosensor for cGMP, we analyzed the effect of PDE1 on cAMP and cGMP in individual neurones in brain slices from male newborn mice. Release of caged NMDA triggered a transient increase of intracellular calcium, which was associated with a decrease in cAMP and cGMP in medium spiny neurones in the striatum. Lu AF64196 alone did not increase neuronal cyclic nucleotide levels, but blocked the NMDA-induced reduction in cyclic nucleotides indicating that this was mediated by calcium-activated PDE1. Similar effects were observed in the prefrontal cortex and the hippocampus. Upon corelease of dopamine and NMDA, PDE1 was shown to down-regulate the D1-receptor mediated increase in cAMP. PDE1 inhibition increased long-term potentiation in rat ventral striatum, showing that PDE1 is implicated in the regulation of synaptic plasticity. Overall, our results show that PDE1 reduces cyclic nucleotide signaling in the context of glutamate and dopamine coincidence. This effect could have a therapeutic value for treating brain disorders related to dysfunctions in dopamine neuromodulation.

Functional Proteomic Profiling of Phosphodiesterases Using SeraFILE Separations Platform. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PROTEOMICS 2012; 2012:515372.

Abstract
Functional proteomic profiling can help identify targets for disease diagnosis and therapy. Available methods are limited by the inability to profile many functional properties measured by enzymes kinetics. The functional proteomic profiling approach proposed here seeks to overcome such limitations. It begins with surface-based proteome separations of tissue/cell-line extracts, using SeraFILE, a proprietary protein separations platform. Enzyme kinetic properties of resulting subproteomes are then characterized, and the data integrated into proteomic profiles. As a model, SeraFILE-derived subproteomes of cyclic nucleotide-hydrolyzing phosphodiesterases (PDEs) from bovine brain homogenate (BBH) and rat brain homogenate (RBH) were characterized for cAMP hydrolysis activity in the presence (challenge condition) and absence of cGMP. Functional profiles of RBH and BBH were compiled from the enzyme activity response to the challenge condition in each of the respective subproteomes. Intersample analysis showed that comparable profiles differed in only a few data points, and that distinctive subproteomes can be generated from comparable tissue samples from different animals. These results demonstrate that the proposed methods provide a means to simplify intersample differences, and to localize proteins attributable to sample-specific responses. It can be potentially applied for disease and nondisease sample comparison in biomarker discovery and drug discovery profiling.

Abstract
Although cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases (PDEs) were described soon after the discovery of cAMP, their complexity and functions in signaling is only recently beginning to become fully realized. We now know that at least 100 different PDE proteins degrade cAMP and cGMP in eukaryotes. A complex PDE gene organization and a large number of PDE splicing variants serve to fine-tune cyclic nucleotide signals and contribute to specificity in signaling. Here we review some of the major concepts related to our understanding of PDE function and regulation including: (a) the structure of catalytic and regulatory domains and arrangement in holoenzymes; (b) PDE integration into signaling complexes; (c) the nature and function of negative and positive feedback circuits that have been conserved in PDEs from prokaryotes to human; (d) the emerging association of mutant PDE alleles with inherited diseases; and (e) the role of PDEs in generating subcellular signaling compartments.

Abstract
Calmodulin-dependent cyclic nucleotide phopshodiesterase (PDE1) has been extensively characterized and is a key enzyme involved in the complex interaction between cyclic nucleotide and Ca(2+) second-messenger systems. It is well established that PDE1 exists in different isozymes. For example, bovine brain tissue has two PDE1 isozymes (PDE1A2 and PDE1B1) whereas only one form (PDE1A1) is reported in bovine cardiac tissue. In this study, we report the cloning of two cDNA splice variants of PDE1: PDE1-small and PDE1-large, from bovine cardiac tissue. Their amino acid sequence similarity to PDE1 sequences from other mammalian species showed that all are very conserved, suggesting their importance in cellular functions. Interestingly, compared to other mammalian species, bovine PDE1A, PDE-small and PDE-large show a deletion at the C-terminal end of the catalytic domain of the gene. Although the significance of this deletion at this crucial location of the gene is not known, we have successfully over-expressed both PDE1-small and PDE1-large splice variants in E. coli and these splice variants are characterized in terms of Western blot, biotinylated calmodulin overlay and peptide mass fingerprinting. Results from these studies suggested that these two splice variants belong to the PDE1 superfamily. To our knowledge, this is the first report on cloning and characterization of these cDNA variants from bovine cardiac tissue. Since there are at least two isoforms of PDE1 in bovine heart tissue, this merits further in-depth study.

Abstract
Ca2+-calmodulin-dependent phosphodiesterases (PDE1), like Ca2+-sensitive adenylyl cyclases (AC), are key enzymes that play a pivotal role in mediating the cross-talk between cAMP and Ca2+ signalling. Our understanding of how ACs respond to Ca2+ has advanced greatly, with significant breakthroughs at both the molecular and functional level. By contrast, little is known of the mechanisms that might underlie the regulation of PDE1 by Ca2+ in the intact cell. In living cells, Ca2+ signals are complex and diverse, exhibiting different spatial and temporal properties. The potential therefore exists for dynamic changes in the subcellular distribution and activation of PDE1 in relation to intracellular Ca2+ dynamics. PDE1s are a large family of multiply-spliced gene products. Therefore, it is possible that a cell-type specific response to elevation in [Ca2+]i can occur, depending on the isoform of PDE1 expressed. In this article, we summarize current knowledge on Ca2+ regulation of PDE1 in the intact cell and discuss approaches that might be undertaken to delineate the responses of this important group of enzymes to changes in [Ca2+]i.

Abstract
Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) is a major regulator of monocyte to macrophage differentiation. In both humans and mice, the main phenotype of decreased GM-CSF function is pulmonary proteinosis due to aberrant function of alveolar macrophages. Recently, this cytokine has been shown to up-regulate a cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase, PDE1B. Two PDE1B variants with unique N-terminal sequences, PDE1B1 and PDE1B2, have been identified. Here, we report that the previously uncharacterized PDE1B2 is selectively increased by GM-CSF by stimulation of transcription at a previously unknown transcriptional start site. Analysis of the exon and intron organization of the PDE1B gene reveals that PDE1B2 has a different N-terminal sequence because of a separate first exon that is located 11.5 kb downstream from the PDE1B1 first exon. By using 5'-RACE, alignment of EST sequences, and a luciferase-reporter system, we provide evidence that PDE1B2 has a separate transcriptional start site from PDE1B1 that can be activated by monocyte differentiation. Furthermore, IL-4 treatment in the presence of GM-CSF, which shifts the differentiation from a macrophage to a dendritic cell phenotype, suppresses the up-regulation of PDE1B2. Induction of PDE1B2 is also found in T cells upon activation by PHA. Therefore, PDE1B2 may have a regulatory role in multiple immune cell types. Last, characterization of the catalytic properties of recombinant PDE1B2 shows that it prefers cGMP over cAMP as a substrate and, thus, is likely to regulate cGMP in macrophages. Also, PDE1B2 has a nearly 3-fold lower EC(50) for activation by calmodulin than PDE1B1.

Abstract
A cDNA selection technique has been used to isolate full-length human cDNAs of the phosphodiesterase 1 (PDE1) calcium calmodulin (CaM)-regulated phosphodiesterase gene family. We isolated cDNAs representing multiple splice variants of PDE1A, 1B and 1C from a variety of tissues. Included among these were two novel splice variants for PDE1A and 1B. The first, PDE1A5, encodes a 519-residue protein, which is different from PDE1A1 by the insertion of 14 residues, a divergent carboxy terminus and also differs from PDE1A3 through a divergent amino terminus. Our second novel splice variant represents the first occurrence of a splice variant of the PDE1B gene. PDE1B2 encodes a 516-residue protein and diverges from PDE1B1 by the replacement of the first 38 residues by an alternative 18, which is predicted to be functionally significant. Using the splice variant sequence differences to perform comparative Northern analysis, we have demonstrated that each variant has a differential tissue distribution.

Abstract
The calcium/calmodulin-dependent activation of nitric-oxide synthase (NOS) and its production of nitric oxide (NO) play a key regulatory role in plant and animal cell function. SCaM-1 is a plant calmodulin (CaM) isoform that is 91% identical to mammalian CaM (wild type CaM (wtCaM)) and a selective competitive antagonist of NOS (Cho, M. J., Vaghy, P. L., Kondo, R., Lee, S. H., Davis, J. P., Rehl, R., Heo, W. D., and Johnson, J. D. (1998) Biochemistry 37, 15593-15597). We have used site-directed mutagenesis to show that a point mutation, involving the substitution of valine for methionine at position 144, is responsible for SCaM-1's inhibition of mammalian NOS. An M144V mutation in wild type CaM produced a mutant (M144V) which exhibited nearly identical inhibition of NOS's NO production and NADPH oxidation, with a similar K(i) (approximately 15 nM) as SCaM-1. A V144M back mutation in SCaM-1 significantly restored its ability to activate NOS's catalytic functions. The length of the hydrophobic amino acid side chain at position 144 appears to be critical for NOS activation, since M144L and M144F activated NOS while M144V and M144C did not. Despite their competitive antagonism of NOS, M144V, like SCaM-1, exhibited a similar dose-dependent activation of phosphodiesterase and calcineurin as wtCaM. SCaM-1 and M144V produced greater inhibition of NOS's oxygenase domain function (NO production) than its reductase domain functions (NADPH oxidation and cytochrome c reduction). Thus, CaM's methionine 144 plays a critical role the activation of NOS, presumably by influencing the function of NOS's oxygenase domain.

Abstract
The experimental and theoretical study of intracellular biochemical signaling mechanisms lags considerably behind our understanding of electrical processes of neuronal membranes. Both signaling processes, however, are extensively intertwined and can be analyzed and modeled using formally similar mathematical tools. With the nigro-striatal system as an example, we review various formal approaches to describe metabotropic signaling in dopamine- and calcium-dependent pathways and their interactions with electrical membrane processes. These demonstrate the feasibility of synthetic modeling and afford insights into a variety of specific signaling mechanisms. Extending and linking hitherto isolated models has the potential to transcend descriptive levels and to provide a fuller understanding of the molecular basis of macroscopic information processing in the central nervous system.

Abstract
Recent progress in the field of cyclic nucleotides has shown that a large array of closely related proteins is involved in each step of the signal transduction cascade. Nine families of adenylyl cyclases catalyze the synthesis of the second messenger cAMP, and protein kinases A, the intracellular effectors of cAMP, are composed of four regulatory and three catalytic subunits. A comparable heterogeneity has been discovered for the enzymes involved in the inactivation of cyclic nucleotide signaling. In mammals, 19 different genes encode the cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases (PDEs), the enzymes that hydrolyze and inactivate cAMP and cGMP. This is only an initial level of complexity, because each PDE gene contains several distinct transcriptional units that give rise to proteins with subtle structural differences, bringing the number of the PDE proteins close to 50. The molecular biology of PDEs in Drosophila and Dictyostelium has shed some light on the role of PDE diversity in signaling and development. However, much needs to be done to understand the exact function of these enzymes, particularly during mammalian development and cell differentiation. With the identification and mapping of regulatory and targeting domains of the PDEs, modularity of the PDE structure is becoming an established tenet in the PDE field. The use of different transcriptional units and exon splicing of a single PDE gene generates proteins with different regulatory domains joined to a common catalytic domain, therefore expanding the array of isoforms with subtle differences in properties and sensitivities to different signals. The physiological context in which these different isoforms function is still largely unknown and undoubtedly will be a major area of expansion in the years to come.

Abstract
The PDE1A gene encodes a Ca2+/calmodulin-stimulated 3',5'-cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase (PDE). We have performed 5' and 3' RACE and identified two additional 5'-splice variants and one additional 3'-splice variant of the human PDE1A gene. The three known 5'-splice variants and the two known 3'-splice variants combine to generate six different PDE1A mRNAs. However, one of the 5'-splice variants exhibits alternate splicing in the 5' untranslated region. Thus the six mRNAs encode four different PDE1A proteins. Recombinant forms of the different human PDE1A isoforms were expressed in Sf9 cells. The kinetic properties and inhibitor sensitivities of the four PDE1A isoforms are very similar to one another.

Abstract
To further our understanding of the structure and function of phosphodiesterases of the newly identified family of high affinity cAMP-specific phosphodiesterases (PDE7), we identified and characterized the isozyme expressed in human skeletal muscle and the protein product of the previously isolated isozyme HCP1 (designated HSPDE7A1). We report the isolation of a cDNA encoding the full-length skeletal muscle isoform of human PDE7A (HSPDE7A2). The DNA sequence of this skeletal muscle cDNA indicates that PDE7A2 is a novel 5' splice variant of PDE7A encoding an isoform with a novel, hydrophobic N terminus. The 456-amino acid PDE7A2 protein is detected on Western blots as a band with an apparent mobility of 50 kDa. PDE7A2 is a high affinity cAMP-specific PDE (Km = 0.1 microM), which is localized to particulate cellular fractions. The PDE7A1 (HCP1) isozyme is detected on Western blots as a band with an apparent mobility of 57 kDa, demonstrating that the previously isolated HCP1 cDNA encodes the full-length PDE7A1 protein. The even distribution of PDE7A mRNA among fetal tissues and the relative abundance of its two mRNAs strongly suggest that the expression of PDE7A is regulated throughout development.

Abstract
Calmodulin-dependent cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase was identified in and purified to apparent homogeneity from the total calmodulin-binding protein fraction of bovine eye in a single step by immunoaffinity chromatography. The bovine eye calmodulin-dependent cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase is immunologically similar to the bovine brain 60-kDa isozyme. The purified enzyme had higher affinity for calmodulin than the 60-kDa phosphodiesterase isozyme from bovine brain, but similar affinity to that of the heart isozyme. When the Ca(2+)-dependence of the eye enzyme was compared to cardiac calmodulin-dependent cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase at an identical concentration of calmodulin, the bovine eye calmodulin-dependent cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase was activated at the same Ca2+ concentration as the bovine heart calmodulin-dependent cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase isozyme.

Abstract
The effect of amantadine (an antiparkinsonian agent) on calmodulin-dependent cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase isozymes was investigated. Amantadine inhibited bovine brain 60 kDa calmodulin-dependent cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase but not the bovine brain 63 kDa, heart and lung calmodulin-dependent cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase isozymes. The inhibition of bovine brain 60 kDa calmodulin-dependent cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase was overcome by increasing the concentration of calmodulin. This suggests that amantadine may be an antagonist of calmodulin or act specifically and reversibly on the action of calmodulin. The bovine brain 60 kDa calmodulin-dependent cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase isozyme is predominantly expressed in the brain and its inhibition may result in increased intracellular levels of cyclic AMP (cAMP). The increased intracellular levels of cAMP have a protective role for dopaminergic neurons. The present findings suggest that amantadine may be a valuable tool to investigate the physiological role of 60 kDa calmodulin-dependent cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase isozyme in the progression of Parkinson's disease and gives a new insight into the action of this drug.

Abstract
We report here the identification of cDNAs for three new mouse PDE1C splice variants and the characterization of their kinetics, regulation by Ca2+, sensitivities to inhibitors, and tissue/cellular expression patterns. Sequence analysis indicated that these three cDNAs (PDE1C1, PDE1C4, and PDE1C5), together with our previously reported PDE1C2 and PDE1C3, are alternative splice products of the PDE1C gene. The results from RNase protection analysis and in situ hybridization indicated that the expression of the different PDE1C splice variants is differentially regulated in a tissue/cell-specific manner. Particularly, high levels of PDE1C mRNAs were found in the olfactory epithelium, testis, and several regions of mouse brain such as cerebellar granule cells. All of these splice variants have similar kinetic properties, showing high affinities and approximately the same relative Vmax values for both cAMP and cGMP. However, they responded to Ca2+ stimulation differently. In addition, they show different sensitivities to the calmodulin-dependent phosphodiesterase inhibitors, KS505a and SCH51866. Substrate competition experiments suggested the presence of only one catalytic site on these PDE1C isozymes for both cAMP and cGMP. In summary, these findings suggest that the PDE1C gene undergoes tissue-specific alternative splicing that generates structurally and functionally diverse gene products.

Abstract
Using a bovine 61-kDa (PDE1A2) calmodulin-stimulated phosphodiesterase (CaM-PDE) cDNA and a bovine lung 59-kDa (PDE1A1) CaM-PDE cDNA reported here, we have identified two new regions within the primary structure of these two related isozymes that are important for regulation by Ca2+/CaM. PDE1A1 is identical to the PDE1A2 isozyme except for the amino-terminal 18 residues. In agreement with earlier studies, the CaM concentration required for half-maximal activation (KCaM) of recombinant PDE1A1 (0.3 nM) was approximately 10-fold less than the KCaM for recombinant PDE1A2 (4 nM). A series of deletion mutations of the PDE1A2 cDNA removing nucleotide sequence encoding the first 46-106 aminoterminal residues were constructed and expressed using the baculovirus system. Deletion of the amino acids encompassing a previously identified, putative CaM-binding domain (residues 4-46) produced a polypeptide that was still activated 3-fold by CaM (KCaM approximately 3 nM). However, complete CaM-independent activation occurred when residues 4-98 were deleted. To determine the location of the additional CaM-binding domain(s), the inhibitory potency of seven overlapping, synthetic peptides spanning amino acids 76-149 of PDE1A2 was tested using the CaM-activated enzyme. One peptide spanning amino acids 114-137 of PDE1A2 appeared to be the most potent inhibitor of CaM-stimulated activity. These results reveal the existence of a CaM-binding domain located approximately 90 residues carboxyl-terminal to the putative CaM-binding domains previously identified within the PDE1A1 and PDE1A2 isozymes. Moreover, a discrete segment important for holding these CaM-PDEs in a less active state at low Ca2+ concentrations is located between the two CaM-binding domains.

Abstract
The bovine heart calmodulin-dependent phosphodiesterase can be phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase, resulting in a decrease in the enzyme's affinity for calmodulin. The phosphorylation of calmodulin-dependent phosphodiesterase is blocked by Ca2+ and calmodulin and reversed by the calmodulin-dependent phosphatase. The dephosphorylation is accompanied by an increase in the affinity of the phosphodiesterase for calmodulin. The CaM-dependent phosphodiesterase isozymes of heart and brain are regulated by calmodulin, but the affinity for calmodulin are different. Furthermore, the bovine heart CaM-dependent phosphodiesterase isozyme in stimulated at much lower Ca2+ concentration than the bovine brain isozymes. Results from this study suggest that the activity of this phosphodiesterase is precisely regulated by cross-talk between Ca2+ and cAMP signalling pathways.

Abstract
Calmodulin, similarly to many other Ca(2+)-activated proteins, undergoes considerable conformational changes in the presence of Ca2+ ions. These changes were followed using specific monoclonal antibodies against calmodulin. Since calmodulin is a poor immunogen due to its high phylogenetic conservancy, glutaraldehyde-crosslinked bovine brain extract, which contains a considerable amount of functionally active calmodulin complexed with its target proteins, was used as an antigen. Out of nine anti-calmodulin mAbs isolated, three (namely, CAM1, CAM2 and CAM4) were purified and characterized. MAb CAM1 was identified as an IgG1 while mAbs CAM2 and CAM4 belong to IgM class. Additivity ELISA showed that mAb CAM1 binds to an epitope located remote from the epitopes recognized by the other two mAbs, while mAbs CAM2 and CAM4 recognize close epitopes. MAb CAM1 was found to be especially sensitive to the conformational state of calmodulin in the presence of Ca2+ ions. The interactions of mAbs CAM2 and CAM4 with calmodulin are only slightly affected by Ca2+ removal. In addition mAb CAM1 failed to recognize other calmodulin molecules, such as spinach and various plant recombinant calmodulins, while mAbs CAM1 and CAM4 share common epitopes with the above molecules.

Abstract
Several of the different PDE isozyme families have the ability in vitro to hydrolyze cGMP. In particular they include the CaM-dependent PDEs, the cGMP-stimulated PDEs, and the cGMP binding, cGMP-specific PDEs. Existing evidence suggests or demonstrates that in different cell types, each of these can be important determinants for the control of cGMP steady-state levels. Each of these enzymes is differentially expressed and regulated; moreover, the amount of the enzyme expressed and the mode of regulation determine to a large extent the rate of rise, maximal level, rate of fall, and duration of the cGMP signal in the cell. In addition to enzymes that function to degrade cGMP at least two also are regulated by cGMP both in vitro and in the intact cell. The cGMP-stimulated PDE has the ability to decrease cAMP levels in response to cGMP and the cGMP-inhibited PDE can increase cAMP levels in response to cGMP. We are just beginning to define how many different isozymes of PDE exist in mammalian tissues, where they are located, and how they are regulated. Selective inhibitors to each are being developed and studies designed to define structural features that determine the mechanisms of action and regulation of the PDEs have been initiated. It is expected that in the next few years more PDEs will be discovered and the functions of the new an existing ones with be more clearly defined.

Abstract
The cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases constitute a complex superfamily of enzymes responsible for catalyzing the hydrolysis of cyclic nucleotides. Regulation of cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases is one of the two major mechanisms by which intracellular cyclic nucleotide levels are controlled. In many cases the fluctuations in cyclic nucleotide levels in response to hormones is due to the hormone responsiveness of the phosphodiesterase. Isozymes of the cGMP-inhibited, cAMP-specific, calmodulin-stimulated and cGMP-binding phosphodiesterases have been demonstrated to be substrates for protein kinases. Here we review the evidence that hormonally responsive phosphorylation acts to regulate cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases. In particular, the cGMP-inhibited phosphodiesterases, which can be phosphorylated by at least two different protein kinases, are activated as a result of phosphorylation. In contrast, phosphorylation of the calmodulin-stimulated phosphodiesterases, which coincides with a decreased sensitivity to activation by calmodulin, results in decreased phosphodiesterase activity.

Abstract
The effects of various ginsenosides on calmodulin-dependent phosphodiesterase isozymes have been investigated. Ginsenosides were found to be potent inhibitors of bovine heart calmodulin-dependent phosphodiesterase and the 60-kDa isozyme of bovine brain calmodulin-dependent phosphodiesterase but not of the 63-kDa isozyme of bovine brain calmodulin-dependent phosphodiesterase. Since the inhibition of phosphodiesterase by ginsenosides was overcome by increasing the concentration of calmodulin, this suggests that ginsenosides act specifically and reversibly against the action of the calmodulin. These compounds therefore should be valuable tools to investigate the diverse physiological roles of distinct phosphodiesterase isozymes.

Abstract
The purification of proteins by affinity chromatography is based on their highly specific interaction with an immobilized ligand followed by elution under conditions where their affinity towards the ligand is markedly reduced. Thus, a high-degree purification by a single chromatographic step is achieved. However, when several proteins in the crude mixture share affinity to a common immobilized ligand, they may not be resolved by affinity chromatography and subsequent "real" chromatographic purification steps may be required. It is shown that by using properly selected gradient elution conditions, the affinities of the various proteins towards the immobilized ligand may be gradually modulated and their separation may be achieved. This is exemplified by the isolation and separation of a group of Ca(2+)-activated proteins, Calmodulin, S100a and S100b, from bovine brain extract, using a melittin-Eupergit C affinity column which is developed with Ca(2+)-chelator gradients. As expected, separation of the three proteins into individual peaks, eluted in order of increasing affinity to the matrix, was obtained. Sigmoid selectivity curves calculated from the elution volumes under different elution conditions for each of the proteins were obtained, illustrating the chromatographic behaviour of the gradient affinity separation system.

Abstract
The complete amino acid sequence of the 61-kDa calmodulin-dependent, cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase (CaM-PDE) from bovine brain has been determined. The native protein is a homodimer of N alpha-acetylated, 529-residue polypeptide chains, each of which has a calculated molecular weight of 60,755. The structural organization of this CaM-PDE has been investigated with use of limited proteolysis and synthetic peptide analogues. A site capable of interacting with CaM has been identified, and the position of the catalytic domain has been mapped. A fully active, CaM-independent fragment (Mr = 36,000), produced by limited tryptic cleavage in the absence of CaM, represents a functional catalytic domain. N-Terminal sequence and size indicate that this 36-kDa fragment is comprised of residues 136 to approximately 450 of the CaM-PDE. This catalytic domain encompasses a approximately 250 residue sequence that is conserved among PDE isozymes of diverse size, phylogeny, and function. CaM-PDE and its PDE homologues comprise a unique family of proteins, each having a catalytic domain that evolved from a common progenitor. A search of the sequence for potential CaM-binding sites revealed only one 15-residue segment with both a net positive charge and the ability to form an amphiphilic alpha-helix. Peptide analogues that include this amphiphilic segment were synthesized. Each was found to inhibit the CaM-dependent activation of the enzyme and to bind directly to CaM with high affinity in a calcium-dependent manner. This site is among the sequences cleaved from a 45-kDa chymotryptic fragment that has the complete catalytic domain but no longer binds CaM. These results indicate that residues located between position 23 and 41 of the native enzyme contribute significantly to the binding of CaM although the involvement of residues from additional sites is not excluded.

Abstract
Partial protein sequences from the 59-kDa bovine heart and the 63-kDa bovine brain calmodulin-dependent phosphodiesterases (CaM-PDEs) were determined and compared to the sequence of the 61-kDa isozyme reported by Charbonneau et al. [Charbonneau, H., Kumar, S., Novack, J. P., Blumenthal, D. K., Griffin, P. R., Shabanowitz, J., Hunt, D. F., Beavo, J. A. & Walsh, K. A. (1991) Biochemistry (preceding paper in this issue)]. Only a single segment (34 residues) at the N-terminus of the 59-kDa isozyme lacks identity with the 61-kDa isozyme; all other assigned sequence is identical in the two isozymes. Peptides from the 59-kDa isozyme that correspond to residues 23-41 of the 61-kDa protein bind calmodulin with high affinity. The C-terminal halves of these calmodulin-binding peptides are identical to the corresponding 59-kDa sequence; the N-terminal halves differ. The localization of sequence differences within this single segment suggests that the 61- and 59-kDa isozymes are generated from a single gene by tissue-specific alternative RNA splicing. In contrast, partial sequence from the 63-kDa bovine brain CaM-PDE isozyme displays only 67% identity with the 61-kDa isozyme. The differences are dispersed throughout the sequence, suggesting that the 63- and 61-kDa isozymes are encoded by separate but homologous genes.

Abstract
Specific anti-calmodulin rabbit polyclonal and murine monoclonal antibodies have been produced with a thyroglobulin-linked peptide corresponding to amino acids 128-148 of bovine brain calmodulin. The monoclonal antibody is IgG-1 with kappa light chains. Both sets of antibodies recognize native vertebrate calmodulin, with the polyclonal antibody exhibiting an approximately fourfold higher sensitivity than the monoclonal antibody in a radioimmunoassay. The affinity of both polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies is approximately 2.5-fold higher for Ca(2+)-free calmodulin than for Ca(2+)-calmodulin. Other selected members of the calmodulin family (S100, troponin, and parvalbumin) do not exhibit significant cross-reactivity with the monoclonal antibody. Troponin and S100 beta displace some 125I-calmodulin from the polyclonal antibody, but require at least 900-fold excess concentration. The monoclonal antibody recognizes intact vertebrate calmodulin in solution and also on solid-phase. In addition, plant calmodulin and some forms of post-translationally modified calmodulin (phosphorylated or glycated) bind the monoclonal antibody. The affinity of the monoclonal antibody is approximately 5 x 10(8) liters/mol determined by displacement of 125I-calmodulin. On dot blotting the sensitivity for vertebrate calmodulin is 50 pg. The epitope for the monoclonal antibody is in the carboxyl terminal region (residues 107-148) of calmodulin. This highly specific anti-calmodulin monoclonal antibody should be a useful reagent in elucidating the mechanism by which calmodulin regulates intracellular metabolism.

Abstract
The inhibitory effect of calmodulin on the assembly of mature and immature rat brain microtubules was compared with that of the two major structural domains of this protein, the COOH-terminal fragment (amino acids 78-148) and the NH2-terminal fragment (amino acids 1-77), to determine the calmodulin structural domain responsible for the inhibitory effect on microtubule assembly. Microtubules prepared during the early stages of brain development, i.e., during intensive neurite outgrowth, are more sensitive to inhibition by the Ca2(+)-calmodulin complex than those obtained from adult brain. Significant inhibition of immature microtubule assembly was observed with both fragments in the absence of Ca2+, but the effects were more important when Ca2+ was present. With adult brain microtubules, the two fragments remained without effect on assembly in the absence of Ca2+, whereas some inhibition was seen in its presence but only with the COOH-terminal polypeptide. Under all these conditions, the COOH-terminal fragment was always more active than the NH2-terminal fragment on microtubule polymerization, albeit to a lesser extent than native calmodulin.

Abstract
In this study three forms of cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase (PDE) isolated from rabbit aorta were pharmacologically characterized, and the consequence of selective inhibition of calmodulin-stimulated PDE (CaM-PDE) and cGMP specific PDE (cG-PDE) was evaluated using PDE inhibitors. The cG-PDE (F1) was selectively inhibited by M&B 22948 (IC50 = 0.5 microM) and dipyridamole (IC50 = 7 microM). The cAMP-PDE (cA-PDE, F3) was inhibited more effectively by the cA-PDE inhibitor milrinone than by other PDE inhibitors. The cA-PDE preparation appeared to contain both cG-inhibited PDE and cG-insensitive PDE based on an additive inhibition of the activity by milrinone and SQ 65442, respective inhibitors of these enzymes. Vinpocetine, 8-methoxymethyl isobutylmethylxanthine (8-MeOMeMIX) and M&B 22948 effectively inhibited CaM-PDE (F2). Vinpocetine was a more selective inhibitor of CaM-PDE than M&B 22948 or 8-MeOMeMIX. CaM-PDEs isolated from rabbit aorta and bovine brain exhibited a similar sensitivity to these inhibitors. Seventy-two percent of the cGMP-hydrolyzing activity of this rabbit aortic CaM-PDE preparation was immunoadsorbed to monoclonal antibody (ACC-1) against CaM bound to brain CaM-PDE. Vinpocetine, 8-MeOMeMIX and M&B 22948 at concentrations (30 and 100 microM) which inhibit CaM-PDE greater than 60% increased cGMP but not cAMP levels in l-norepinephrine (NE) preincubated rabbit aortic slices. At concentrations selectively inhibiting cG-PDE, dipyridamole and M&B 22948 increased cGMP levels in untreated slices but failed to increase cGMP levels significantly in NE-treated slices. By contrast, vinpocetine failed to increase cGMP significantly in untreated slices, although it increased cGMP levels in NE or KCl preincubated slices. These data indicate that, in activated (precontracted) aorta, CaM-PDE is a major enzyme, whereas in untreated aorta cG-PDE is a predominant enzyme for the hydrolysis of cGMP. This study also shows a usefulness of selective inhibitors in identifying different forms of PDE and similar drug sensitivities and immunoadsorption of aortic and brain CaM-PDEs by a monoclonal antibody.

Abstract
Nanomolar concentrations of synthetic peptides corresponding to the calmodulin-binding domain of skeletal muscle myosin light chain kinase were found to inhibit calmodulin activation of seven well-characterized calmodulin-dependent enzymes: brain 61 kDa cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase, brain adenylate cyclase, Bordetella pertussis adenylate cyclase, red blood cell membrane Ca++-pump ATPase, brain calmodulin-dependent protein phosphatase (calcineurin), skeletal muscle phosphorylase b kinase, and brain multifunctional Ca++ (calmodulin)-dependent protein kinase. Inhibition could be entirely overcome by the addition of excess calmodulin. Thus, the myosin light chain kinase peptides used in this study may be useful antagonists for studying calmodulin-dependent enzymes and processes.

Abstract
A mouse monoclonal IgG1 antibody has been generated against the soluble form of the calmodulin-dependent protein kinase type II. This antibody recognizes both the soluble and cytoskeletal forms of the enzyme, requiring Ca2+ (EC50 = 20 microM) for the interaction. Other divalent cations such as Zn2+, Mn2+, Cd2+, Co2+, and Ni2+ will substitute for Ca2+, while Mg2+ and Ba2+ will not. The antibody reacts with both the alpha- and beta-subunits on Western blots in a similar Ca2+-dependent fashion but with a lower sensitivity. The affinity of the antibody for the kinase is 0.13 nM determined by displacement of 125I Bolton-Hunter-labeled kinase with unlabeled enzyme. A variety of other proteins including tubulin do not compete for antibody binding. The Mr 30,000 catalytic fragment obtained by proteolysis of either the soluble or the cytoskeletal form of the kinase fails to react with the antibody. Calmodulin and antibody reciprocally potentiate each other's interaction with the enzyme. This is illustrated both by direct binding studies and by a decrease of the Kmapp for calmodulin and an increase in the Vmax for the autophosphorylation reaction of the enzyme. The antibody thus appears to recognize and stabilize a conformation of the kinase which favors calmodulin binding although it does not itself activate the kinase in the absence of calmodulin. Since the Mr 30,000 catalytic fragment of the kinase is not immunoreactive, either the antibody combining site of the kinase must be present in the noncatalytic portion of the protein along with the calmodulin binding site or proteolysis interferes with the putative Ca2+-dependent conformational change.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Oncomodulin, an oncofetal Ca2+-binding protein, contains a single Cys residue in position 18 of its primary structure. The reactivity of the Cys-18 thiol has been probed with 5,5'-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoate) (NbS2). The kinetics of the reaction indicate that the thiol group is approximately 10-fold more reactive in the presence of Ca2+ than in its absence. Evidence presented here shows that oncomodulin can dimerize by intermolecular disulfide formation via the Cys-18 thiol. The kinetics of dimer formation indicate that the second-order rate constant for this reaction is approximately 6-fold higher than that observed for the reaction of the Cys-18 thiol with NbS2, possibly indicating that intermolecular electrostatic interactions precede disulfide formation. The disulfide-linked dimer of oncomodulin appears to be more similar to calmodulin than oncomodulin since the dimer displayed "calmodulin-like" affinity for the amphiphilic peptide melittin. In addition, oncomodulin dimer was shown to activate two calmodulin-dependent enzymes, cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase and calcineurin phosphatase, with the activity constants of 63 and 1 nM, respectively, indicating that these enzymes have different domain contact requirements for activation.

Abstract
Immobilized ACC-1 and ACAP-1 antibodies are effective tools for the purification of active calmodulin-dependent phosphodiesterases. ACC-1 antibody binds all bovine and rat brain isozymes in a Ca2+-dependent manner and has been used for their purification. Since ACC-1 binds both bovine brain isozymes (61- and 63-kDa forms) and ACAP-1 recognizes only the 61-kDa isozyme, ACAP-1 can be used to separate and purify the two brain isozymes. The procedures described here for phosphodiesterase isolation from brain are rapid and require few enzymatic assays, resulting in preparations of good purity, specific activity, and yield (Tables II, III). The procedures for brain tissue can be easily adapted for use with larger amounts of tissue. The cross-reactivity of ACP-1 for rat brain phosphodiesterase suggests that this antibody may recognize isozymes from other mammalian tissues.
