Abstract
In common with other growth-promoting hormones, peptide hormones evoke multiple biochemical responses in their target tissues. These can be divided into two groups: (a) rapid effects involving permeability properties of the target cell to amino acids, sugars and ions or changes in key intracellular metabolites like cyclic nucleotides; (b) slow responses based on the stimulation of RNA and protein synthesis. The impossibility of explaining all the late events as the results of early changes raises the possibility that more than one species of hormone receptor exists. It is proposed that the final expression of growth and maturation results from the cooperative interaction of rapid and slow responses of the target cell to the hormone.

Abstract
Since 1976 many studies have been reported on the occurrence and functional significance of ecto-protein kinases in a variety of cell types although their precise biochemical identity is largely unknown. This study reports for the first time purification to apparent homogeneity of an ecto-protein kinase (ecto-CIK) and some of its characteristics using caprine sperm as the cell model. The ecto-CIK is a unique membrane-specific serine/threonine protein kinase. It is a strongly basic 115 kDa protein made up of two subunits: 63 and 55 kDa. The ecto-kinase undergoes a remarkable lateral movement on the outer cell surface culminating in capping on the sperm acrosomal tip. MPS, its major protein substrate is also located on the acrosomal tip. Both ecto CIK and MPS serve as potential regulators of flagellar motility. This novel enzyme appears to be major kinase responsible for the reported regulation of mammalian cellular functions by modulating phosphorylation of the membrane-bound proteins.

Abstract
We have demonstrated the location of a cyclic AMP independent serine/threonine protein kinase (ecto-CIK) on the outer surface of mature goat spermatozoa. We purified and characterized the major physiological protein substrate (MPS) of ecto-CIK. 32P-labeled membrane proteins phosphorylated by endogenous ecto-CIK of intact cauda-epididymal spermatozoa was solubilized with 1% Triton X-100 and then fractionated by following several chromatographic techniques like Sephacryl S-300 molecular sieve chromatography, DEAE-cellulose ion-exchange chromatography and chromatofocussing. The MPS of ecto-CIK has been purified to apparent homogeneity and it was found to be a monomeric protein of 100 kDa. Three isoforms of MPS have been found with pI of 6.37, 6.05, and 5.14 and all these isoforms served as the specific substrate of ecto-CIK. The ecto-kinase has nearly 30 times greater affinity for MPS as compared to casein the most potent exogenous protein substrate. Addition of MPS (pI 5.14) antibody caused head-to-head sperm agglutination. The Fv/Fab fragment of anti-MPS caused significant inhibition of sperm motility. The data show that MPS is an ecto-protein localized on the sperm head. MPS may thus play an important role for the regulation of sperm-egg interaction.

Abstract
Intact spermatozoa from goat cauda epididymides possess an ecto-(cyclic AMP-independent protein kinase) activity that causes transfer of the terminal phosphate of exogenously added [gamma-32P]ATP to the serine and threonine residues of several endogenous plasma-membrane phosphoproteins located on the external cell surface. Cyclic AMP, cyclic GMP, calmodulin and muscle cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinases I and II had no appreciable effect on the rate of phosphorylation of ecto-proteins by the intact cells. The ecto-enzyme is not derived from the catalytic subunit of a cyclic AMP-dependent kinase. Sperm ecto-kinase activity is not due to contamination of broken cells or any possible cell damage during incubation and isolation of spermatozoa. The phosphorylation reaction was linear for approx. 1 min and there was no detectable uptake of ATP by these cells. The activity of the ecto-kinase was strongly inhibited by proteinases and by the membrane-nonpenetrating surface probes. The products of the reaction were associated with the intact cells and the 32P of the labelled cells was largely lost when treated with Triton X-100 or proteinases: trypsin and pronase. These data are consistent with the view that the observed protein kinase and the phosphoproteins are located on the external surface of spermatozoa. Vigorously forward-motile whole spermatozoa showed a relatively high capacity to phosphorylate ecto-proteins that undergo rapid turnover. The results suggest the occurrence of a novel coupled-enzyme system (ecto-protein kinase and phosphoprotein phosphatase) on the sperm external surface that may modulate sperm physiology by determining the phosphorylated states of the ecto-proteins.

Abstract
1. Smooth membranes have been prepared from mouse L-cells and found to contain an endogenous protein kinase activity. 2. The enzyme(s) responsible for this activity use ATP, but no other nucleoside triphosphates, to phosphorylate endogenous membrane proteins as well as exogenously-added protein substrates such as phosvitin and casein. 3. Mg2+ is required for enzyme activity, maximal activity is observed at pH 7.5-8.0 and the kinase is not dependent on, or stimulated by, cyclic 3'-5' AMP. 4. The kinase activity is not decreased by the Walsh heat-stable inhibitor of cyclic 3'-5' AMP-dependent protein kinases. 5. Fifty percent or more of the membrane-associated kinase activity can be solubilized by extracting membranes with buffer containing 0.6 M NaCl. 6. The solubilized enzyme resembles the membrane-associated activity in its Mg2+ requirement, pH optimum and independence of cyclic 3'-5' AMP. 7. Phosvitin and casein are better exogenous substrates than histones or protamine for phosphorylation by the enzyme in either the membrane-associated or solubilized state.

Abstract
Proteins of membrane-bound ribosomes from normal liver contained 60-70% more phosphate than did proteins from free ribosomes. This difference was not a reflection of the phosphate contents of respective 40 S subunits. Instead, it was owing to the presence of high levels of phosphorylated proteins in the 60 S subunits, i.e., phosphate contents equal to or greater than those for 40 S subunits. The proteins of membrane-bound 60 S subunits contained twice the phosphate as free 60 S subunits. In regenerating rat liver, membrane-bound ribosomes had increased phosphate in the proteins of the 40 S subunits and decreased phosphate in proteins of the 60 S subunit when compared to controls for normal rat liver. No significant changes occurred in the proteins of free ribosomes from regenerating rat liver. These findings are discussed with respect to (a) the importance of assessing total phosphate contents of proteins in the study of ribosomal protein phosphorylation, and (b) the possible involvement of ribosomal protein phosphorylation in the segregation of ribosomes into free and membrane-bound populations and the regulation of these distributions to meet changes in the translational demands of the cell.

Abstract
Subcellular fractionation studies were done using lactating rat mammary tissue. Lipoprotein lipase (E.C. 3.1.1.34) was found to be associated with plasma membrane-enriched and endoplasmic reticulum-enriched fractions. Considerable amounts of soluble lipoprotein lipase were found after homogenization of this tissue. The membrane-associated lipoprotein lipase activities described here were found to be resistant to release, by heparin, from their membrane sites. Buoyant density gradient fractionation experiments suggest that the lipoprotein lipase activity of lactating mammary tissue is located in part on the secretory epithelial cell plasma membrane. This conclusion is discussed in the context of the known site of action, in vivo, of mammary gland lipoprotein lipase, and of probable routes of its transport to that site.

Abstract
Transport-competent plasma membrane vesicles isolated from mammalian cells provide a system to investigate mechanisms and regulation of nutrient and ion transport systems. The characteristics of membrane vesicle systems to study transport in erythrocytes, renal and epithelial membranes, Ehrlich ascites cells, and mouse fibroblasts are discussed. Studies of Na+-stimulated and Na+-independent amino acid and glucose transport in these systems are evaluated, with emphasis on experimental verification of concepts stated in the Na+ gradient hypothesis. Nucleoside, phosphate, and calcium transport systems in plasma membrane vesicles from mouse fibroblast cultures are discussed. Also, current biochemical approaches to investigate mechanisms of regulation of nutrient transport systems by hormones or cellular proliferative state are described.

Abstract
Phosphorylation of ribosomal proteins in vivo was studied in exponentially growing and starved cells of the ciliated protozoan, Tetrahymena pyriformis. No phosphorylation of ribosomal proteins could be demonstrated in cells growing exponentially in complex nutrient media. However, when Tetrahymena cells were transferred into a non-nutrient medium, pronounced phosphorylation of a single ribosomal protein was observed. During two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis the phosphorylated ribosomal protein migrated in a manner virtually identical to that of the phosphorylated ribosomal protein S6 of rat liver. The phosphorylated ribosomal protein has a molecular weight of 38000 as estimated by dodecylsulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Thus, the phosphorylated ribosomal protein found in starved Tetrahymena is apparently homologous with the ribosomal protein which is predominantly phosphorylated in higher eukaryotes. When phosphorylated ribosomes were dissociated by treatment with high concentration of KCl, the phosphorylated protein was found only on the small subunit. If dissociation was achieved by dialysis against a buffer low in MgCl2, the phosphorylated protein was distributed almost equally between the two subunits. This indicates that the phosphorylated ribosomal protein is located at the interface between the two subunits.

Abstract
The lactating mammary gland synthesizes and secretes large amounts of phosphoproteins that mainly are associated with the casein fraction of milk. The free amino acids and inorganic phosphate of blood serve as building materials for casein, and the final product appears in milk as a colloidal-sized particle, the casein micelle. According to our present concept, the biosynthesis of casein occurs in two steps: synthesis of the polypeptide chain, followed by phosphate addition. Phosphate groups are transferred to the nascent casein by a protein kinase localized in the Golgi apparatus. The enzyme uses adenosine 5'-triphosphate as the phosphate donor and requires divalent cations. Neighboring amino acids may be important in determining which serine residues in casein are phosphorylated. This review discusses historical and current research on the phosphorylation of casein.

Abstract
Somatostatin which inhibits the secretion of various pituitary and intestinal hormones has been suspected to exert these effects by inhibiting adenosine-3',5'-monophosphate accumulation in the respective endocrine gland. Our results, obtained by cell free protein synthesis and by sedimentation through sucrose gradients of ribosomes, prepared from rat liver after incubation with cyclic AMP and/or somatostatin also suggest this antagonism between somatostatin and cyclic AMP. In addition, they indicate that this antagonism is not restricted to endocrine tissues.

Abstract
Three different types of protein kinases (ATP: protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37) were isolated and partially purified from a mouse plasmacytoma microsomal KCl wash fraction, then chromatographed on DEAE cellulose and phosphocellulose. The three protein kinase activities designated by protein kinase I, II and III were characterized with respect to their capacity to utilize [gamma-32P]ATP and [gamma-32P]GTP, to interact with cyclic AMP, stimulation by cyclic AMP, substrate specificity and sedimentation behaviour on glycerol gradient centrifugation. Protein kinase I was found to be cyclic AMP dependent and preferentially phosphorylated histones. Protein kinase II and III were insensitive to cyclic AMP, protein kinase II preferentially phosphorylated histones and the protein(s) of a ribosomal KCl wash fraction eluted from DEAE cellulose between 0.2 and 0.35 M KCl and termed "PPx". Protein kinase III phosphorylated casein and ribosomal proteins to a great extent. Studies with glycerol density gradient centrifugation indicated that protein kinase I sediments as a component of about 4.4 S, protein kinase II of 4.3 S and protein kinase III of 3 S. Chromatography on phosphocellulose of the protein kinases isolated from purified free polysomes showed the same type of protein kinases as those from microsomes. So it appears unlikely that protein kinase I and II were contaminants from the cytosol.

Abstract
Suspensions of renal cortical tubules were incubated with 33Pi and exposed to parathyroid hormone (40 mlg/ml) or 1 mM dibutyryl cyclic AMP. In other experiments homogenates of renal cortex were assayed for protein kinase and phosphoprotein phosphatase activity using [gamma-32P]ATP with or without 5 mM cyclic AMP. Proteins were separated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and phosphorylation of proteins measured by liquid scintillation counting of gel slices. The pattern of protein phosphorylation was similar in control tissue from both tubule suspensions and homogenates. In intact tubules, parathyroid hormone stimulated the phosphorylation of four proteins with molecular weights of approx. 150 000, 125 000, 100 000 and 50 000 by 28%, 24%, 13%, and 20%, respectively. Results with dibutyryl cyclic AMP were comparable but more variable. Stimulation of phosphorylation by cyclic AMP in homogenates was more generalized with the major effect on a 50 000 dalton protein (50% stimulation). No effect of cyclic AMP on dephosphorylation of proteins was observed. The results are interpreted as indicating that increased phosphorylation of cell proteins is part of the cyclic AMP-mediated response of the renal cortex to parathyroid hormone.

Abstract
When highly purified myelin from rat sciatic nerve was incubated with [gamma-32P]ATP, protein components of the membrane were phosphorylated indicating the presence of both the substrate (receptor protein) and an endogenous kinase in the membrane. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the phosphorylated membrane proteins followed by scintillation counting of gel slices and autoradiography showed that the polypeptides of molecular weights 28000, 23000 and 19000 were phosphorylated, and 32P from [gamma-32P]ATP having been incorporated into serine residues of the substrate proteins. Phosphorylation of purified myelin was Mg2+-dependent, was optimal at pH 6.5 and was not stimulated by adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate. We found that proteins other than those in myelin, such as phosvitin, casein, protamine and histones, can also act as a substrate for the membrane associated kinase. Muscle protein kinase inhibitor had no effect on the endogenous phosphorylation of myelin proteins or on the phosphorylation of phosvitin by peripheral nerve myelin protein kinase. However, the phosphorylation of histone by peripheral nerve myelin protein kinase was inhibited by the protein kinase inhibitor. After washing the membrane with 150 mM KCl the protein kinase that utilizes histone as substrate was found in the supernatant. In contrast, the endogenous phosphorylation of membrane proteins or the phosphorylation of phosvitin by the membrane associated kinase was not affected by washing. From these findings we conclude that at least two protein kinase systems exist in purified peripheral nerve myelin. One system is not inhibited by muscle kinase inhibitor, is tightly bound to the membrane and utilizes as its receptor proteins either exogenous phosvitin or endogenous membrane proteins. The second system is inhibited by muscle kinase inhibitor, is removable from the membrane and utilizes histones as its receptor proteins.

The electrophoretic pattern showed five major regions or peaks of 32P radioactivity which represented phosphorylated ribosome-associated proteins with molecular weights of 17 500, 23 000, 30 000, 38 000, and 57 000. When asynchronous cells were pulse-labeled with [32P] phosphate, the predominant peak of 32P radioactivity was associated with the protein of 38 000 daltons. Similar results were obtained with cells synchronized in the G1, S, or G2 phase of the mammalian cell cycle. Conversely, proteins isolated from the ribosomes of mitotic cells, collected and labeled with [32P] phosphate in the presence of colcemid, showed a new and predominant peak of 32P radioactivity migrating with a protein of 45 000 daltons. When cells labeled in mitosis were allowed to progress into G1 phase, this peak of 32P radioactivity rapidly disappeared from the electrophoretic pattern. These results suggest that a specific protein associated with the ribosomes was phosphorylated uniquely during the mitotic phase of the cell cycle.

Abstract
An endogenous protein kinase at the surface of Ehrlich cells has been studied. Using exogenous (gamma32P)ATP as a phosphoryl group donator, a transfer was demonstrated into endogenous acceptor protein(s) as well as to exogenous phosvitin. Seryl- and threonyl-residues isolated from the endogenous and exogenous acceptor protein were found to be labeled. The ratio between the labeled phosphorylserine and phosphorylthreonine was about 3.5:1 for both the endogenous acceptor of the intact cells and the exogenous acceptor. In similar experiments with a membrane preparation from Ehrlich cells, this ratio increased to about 7:1 provided the exogenous acceptor protein was absent. The results were independent of whether 1 X 10(-5) M dibutyryl cyclic AMP was used or not with intact cells and a membrane fraction mainly consisting of vesicles. Whether the regulatory subunit of the membrane-associated protein kinase was in cis- or trans-disposition to the catalytic subunit no binding and dependence of the cyclic nucleotide was observed. Since the purified membrane fraction was considered free from endogenous cyclic AMP, it was concluded that the membrane-associated protein kinase of Ehrlich cells is not dependent on cyclic AMP. The critical role of arginine for the cyclic AMP dependence of the serine-containing residue in the catalytic subunit is discussed.

Abstract
Analysis of in vivo phosphorylation of mouse liver ribosomal proteins was performed by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis following 32P-injection. Our method is special and differs from other eukaryotic systems reported in that all proteins separated on the first dimension gel are completely solubilized, moving quantitatively to the second dimension gel. Only ribosomes from polysomes were used, ensuring analysis of ribosomes actively engaged in protein synthesis. We resolved sixty-five distinct proteins from ribosomes from membrane bound or free polysomes. In both cases radioautography revealed similar labeled patterns with one highly phosphorylated ribosomal protein and five marginally labeled spots.

Abstract
Plasma membrane fractions I and II isolated from bovine corpus luteum contain phosphoprotein phosphatases. Enzyme activities associated with both membrane fractions showed pH optima in the neutral range and were most active with phosphoprotamine as the exogenous substrate. The enzyme activity was partially inhibited by Co2+, Zn2+ and Fe2+. Dithioerythritol, glutathione (reduced) and 2-mercaptoethanol stimulated the enzyme activity, whereas N-ethylmaleimide and N-phenylmaleimide were inhibitory. Similarly, various cyclic nucleotides and nuclsoside triphosphates also inhibited phosphoprotein phosphatase activities. The phosphatase activity was also observed with endogenous phosphorylated membrane proteins as substrate. The endogenous phosphorylation of membranes was rapid and attained a maximal level after 15--20 min of incubation. Initially endogenous dephosphorylation was also very rapid, but did not reach completion. In addition to phosphoprotein phosphatase, membrane preparations also possessed very active cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase activity. Phosphoprotein phosphatase activity from plasma membranes was solubilized by ionic and nonionic detergents. Optimal solubilization was achieved with 0.1% sodium deoxycholate. Sucrose density gradient centrifugation of deoxycholate-solubilized fraction I and fraction II membranes resolved phosphoprotein phosphatase activity into two species with apparent sedimentation coefficients of 6.7 S (Mr 130000) and 4.8 S (Mr 90000). Cyclic-AMPstimulated protein kinase activity sedimented as a broad peak with a sedimentation coefficient of 5.5 S (Mr 110000).

Abstract
The capacity of partially purified rat muscle protein kinase coupled to cyanogen-bromide-activated Sepharose 4B to (radio-)phosphorylate proteins in vitro was evaluated using histones from calf thymus and rat liver and certain proteins as substrates. Data are presented which point to a low substrate specificity of this enzyme. It is demonstrated that even within a short time period histones are efficiently phosphorylated without the introduction of contaminating (phospho-)proteins. Therebye phosphoserine residues are formed. The phosphorylation reaction usually performed at 30 degrees C is shown to function quite efficiently also at 4 degrees C. It proceeds even at 30 degrees C for several hours at pH values close to the physiological range without the release of proteins from the solid matrix. The phosphorus transfer can be largely increased with the use of high ATP concentrations. The stability of the substrates is sufficient to suggest a wide applicability of this solid-state protein kinase in the phosphorylation of proteins either for labeling or as a tool to modify proteins post-synthetically under gentle conditions. The solid enzyme seems to be suitable for radioactively labeling proteins of more complex biological structures, such as membrane surfaces.

Abstract
Plasma membranes have been prepared from porcine thyroid glands using sucrose gradients. The fractions having a density in sucrose of 1.18 g/ml mainly contained plasma membranes and were moderately contaminated with other subcellular components as shown by marker enzyme data. Purified plasma membranes incubated in the presence of [32-P]gamma ATP incorporated 32-P. Kinetics of incorporation of 32-P into endogenous substrates studied in various buffers and with increasing ATP concentration suggest a phosphodephosphorylating system related to cAMP-dependent protein kinase and phosphoprotein phosphatase activities. The two enzymatic activities associated with plasma membranes have been demonstrated using exogenous substrates. cAMP increases and fluoride ions decrease the extent of membrane phosphorylation. The specific activity of protein kinase was 10-12 times higher than in the initial homogenate and was only slightly enhanced in the presence of 0.5% Nonidet as compared to microsomal fraction. cAMP binding to membrane proteins was 3 times higher than to the other particulate fractions. TSH present in the incubating medium or added after 5 min of 32-P labelling induced a rapid stimulation of endogenous phosphorylation followed by a rapid decrease. Phosphorylated membrane substrates were analyzed: high voltage paper electrophoresis after partial hydrolysis indicated that [32-P]phosphate is incorporated into serine and threonine residues as o-phosphate derivatives. SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed several 32--labelled fractions. When enhanced by cAMP, no specific phosphorylation of protein components was observed.

Abstract
An adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate-dependent protein kinase II (ATP:protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37) was partially purified from the cytosol fraction of an exponentially growing culture of Tetrahymena pyriformis. Protein kinase II represented approximately 90% of the cytosolic protein kinase activity. The enzyme had a high degree of substrate specificity for calf thymus and Tetrahymena histones as compared to casein, protamine and phosvitin. The enzyme incorporated the terminal phosphate of ATP into serine and threonine residues of all the histone fractions. The apparent Km of the enzyme for adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP) was 1-10-minus 8 M. Protein kinase II was also activated by other cyclic nucleotides with apparent Km values in the range 2.k-10-minus 6 M. Ther specific activity of the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase of Tetrahymena decreases markedly from initial high values during the transition from the lag to early log phase of growth. This is followed by a shrp increase in the activity of the enzyme as the log phase of growth progresses. The specific activity of the enzyme increases rapidly during the heat-induced synchronization of Tetrahymena cells. The capacity for rapid phosphorylation of multiple classed of organelle-specific phosphoproteins and the level of cyclic AMP were maximal in Tetrahymena during the earliest phase of growth. These results demonstrate that the cell cycle of Tetrahymena may be coordinated by marked variations in the level of cyclic AMP which in turn regulate the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase.

Abstract
The hypothesis that physiological and developmental regulatory mechanisms are similar has been presented. Well-known developmental systems chosen illustrate the capability of the model to suggest a simple mechanism underlying the effects on development of a diverse group of chemicals. This hypothesis might be applied to other systems including the induction of the lens, limb regeneration, and the induction of the head of hydra (124). I have proposed this hypothesis not only because it permits consideration of a complex and varied array of experimental observations as reflections of a simple basic biochemical mechanism, but because recent technical advances in instrumentation and methods allow it to be directly tested. The fluorescent antibody method for the cytochemical measurement of cyclic nucleotides provides a means for investigating changes in the concentrations of cyclic nucleotides in developing cells and could also be used to detect neurotransmitters in developing cells. Similarly, the scanning electron microscope in the emitted x-ray mode provides a method for measuring changes in the content and distribution of cations within developing cells. The hypothesis presented here suggests pleasing asceticism on the part of eukaryotes. It suggests that simple derivatives of metabolites, including neurotransmitters and cyclic nucleotides, are linked together as regulatory molecules throughout the eukaryotes. The neurotransmitters are suggested to have a more general role in information transmission in eukaryotes than is generally accepted. They are hypothesized to have progressed during evolution from being intracellular messengers to a role as intercellular messengers for the relatively slow communication of developmental informatbn; and, finally, this process has culminated with their participation in the rapid intercellular communication mediated by nerves. The thought that the complex pictures of physiological regulation and of the construction of a complex multicellular organism like man might be painted with so few colors is quite satisfying.
