Abstract
Background Proteomic analysis was performed in post-nuclear supernatant (PNS) and Percoll-purified membranes (PM) prepared from fore brain cortex of rats exposed to increasing doses of morphine (10–50 mg/kg) for 10 days. Results In PNS, the 10 up (↑)- or down (↓)-regulated proteins exhibiting the largest morphine-induced change were selected, excised manually from the gel and identified by MALDI-TOF MS/MS: 1-(gi|148747414, Guanine deaminase), ↑2.5×; 2-(gi|17105370, Vacuolar-type proton ATP subunit B, brain isoform), ↑2.6×; 3-(gi|1352384, Protein disulfide-isomerase A3), ↑3.4×; 4-(gi|40254595, Dihydropyrimidinase-related protein 2), ↑3.6×; 5-(gi|149054470, N-ethylmaleimide sensitive fusion protein, isoform CRAa), ↑2.0×; 6-(gi|42476181, Malate dehydrogenase, mitochondrial precursor), ↑1.4×; 7-(gi|62653546, Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase), ↑1.6×; 8-(gi|202837, Aldolase A), ↑1.3×; 9-(gi|31542401, Creatine kinase B-type), ↓0.86×; 10-(gi|40538860, Aconitate hydratase, mitochondrial precursor), ↑1.3×. The identified proteins were of cytoplasmic (1, 4, 5, 7, 9), cell membrane (2), endoplasmic reticulum (3) and mitochondrial (6, 8, 10) origin and 9 of them were significantly increased, 1.3-3.6×. The 4 out of 9 up-regulated proteins (4, 6, 7, 10) were described as functionally related to oxidative stress; the 2 proteins participate in genesis of apoptotic cell death. In PM, the 18 up (↑)- or down (↓)-regulated proteins were identified by LC-MS/MS and were of plasma membrane [Brain acid soluble protein, ↓2.1×; trimeric Gβ subunit, ↓2.0x], myelin membrane [MBP, ↓2.5×], cytoplasmic [Internexin, ↑5.2×; DPYL2, ↑4.9×; Ubiquitin hydrolase, ↓2.0×; 60S ribosomal protein, ↑2.7×; KCRB, ↓2.6×; Sirtuin-2, ↑2.5×; Peroxiredoxin-2, ↑2.2×; Septin-11, ↑2.2×; TERA, ↑2.1×; SYUA, ↑2.0×; Coronin-1A, ↓5.4×] and mitochondrial [Glutamate dehydrogenase 1, ↑2.7×; SCOT1, ↑2.2×; Prohibitin, ↑2.2×; Aspartate aminotransferase, ↓2.2×] origin. Surprisingly, the immunoblot analysis of the same PM resolved by 2D-ELFO indicated that the “active”, morphine-induced pool of Gβ subunits represented just a minor fraction of the total signal of Gβ which was decreased 1.2x only. The dominant signal of Gβ was unchanged. Conclusion Brain cortex of rats exposed to increasing doses of morphine is far from being adapted. Significant up-regulation of proteins functionally related to oxidative stress and apoptosis suggests a major change of energy metabolism resulting in the state of severe brain cell “discomfort” or even death.

Abstract
In addition to its roles in sugar metabolism, fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolase (aldolase) has been implicated in cellular functions independent from these roles, termed "moonlighting functions." These moonlighting functions likely involve the known aldolase-actin interaction, as many proteins with which aldolase interacts are involved in actin-dependent processes. Specifically, aldolase interacts both in vitro and in cells with Wiskott-Aldrich Syndrome Protein (WASP), a protein involved in controlling actin dynamics, yet the function of this interaction remains unknown. Here, the effect of aldolase on WASP-dependent processes in vitro and in cells is investigated. Aldolase inhibits WASP/Arp2/3-dependent actin polymerization in vitro. In cells, knockdown of aldolase results in a decreased rate of cell motility and cell spreading, two WASP-dependent processes. Expression of exogenous aldolase rescues these defects. Whether these effects of aldolase on WASP-dependent processes were due to aldolase catalysis or moonlighting functions is tested using aldolase variants defective in either catalytic or actin-binding activity. While the actin-binding deficient aldolase variant is unable to inhibit actin polymerization in vitro and is unable to rescue cell motility defects in cells, the catalytically inactive aldolase is able to perform these functions, providing evidence that aldolase moonlighting plays a role in WASP-mediated processes.

Abstract
NO is a short-lived free radical that plays a critical role in the regulation of cellular signaling. Mast cell (MC)-derived NO and exogenous NO regulate MC activities, including the inhibition of MC degranulation. At a molecular level, NO acts to modify protein structure and function through several mechanisms, including protein tyrosine nitration. To begin to elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying the effects of NO in MCs, we investigated protein tyrosine nitration in human MC lines HMC-1 and LAD2 treated with the NO donor S-nitrosoglutathione. Using two-dimensional gel Western blot analysis with an anti-nitrotyrosine Ab, together with mass spectrometry, we identified aldolase A, an enzyme of the glycolytic pathway, as a target for tyrosine nitration in MCs. The nitration of aldolase A was associated with a reduction in the maximum velocity of aldolase in HMC-1 and LAD2. Nuclear magnetic resonance analysis showed that despite these changes in the activity of a critical enzyme in glycolysis, there was no significant change in total cellular ATP content, although the AMP/ATP ratio was altered. Elevated levels of lactate and pyruvate suggested that S-nitrosoglutathione treatment enhanced glycolysis. Reduced aldolase activity was associated with increased intracellular levels of its substrate, fructose 1,6-bisphosphate. Interestingly, fructose 1,6-bisphosphate inhibited IgE-mediated MC degranulation in LAD2 cells. Thus, for the first time we report evidence of protein tyrosine nitration in human MC lines and identify aldolase A as a prominent target. This posttranslational nitration of aldolase A may be an important pathway that regulates MC phenotype and function.

Abstract
Vacuolar H(+)-ATPases (V-ATPases) are essential for acidification of intracellular compartments and for proton secretion from the plasma membrane in kidney epithelial cells and osteoclasts. The cellular proteins that regulate V-ATPases remain largely unknown. A screen for proteins that bind the V-ATPase E subunit using the yeast two-hybrid assay identified the cDNA clone coded for aldolase, an enzyme of the glycolytic pathway. The interaction between E subunit and aldolase was confirmed in vitro by precipitation assays using E subunit-glutathione S-transferase chimeric fusion proteins and metabolically labeled aldolase. Aldolase was isolated associated with intact V-ATPase from bovine kidney microsomes and osteoclast-containing mouse marrow cultures in co-immunoprecipitation studies performed using an anti-E subunit monoclonal antibody. The interaction was not affected by incubation with aldolase substrates or products. In immunocytochemical assays, aldolase was found to colocalize with V-ATPase in the renal proximal tubule. In osteoclasts, the aldolase-V-ATPase complex appeared to undergo a subcellular redistribution from perinuclear compartments to the ruffled membranes following activation of resorption. In yeast cells deficient in aldolase, the peripheral V(1) domain of V-ATPase was found to dissociate from the integral membrane V(0) domain, indicating direct coupling of glycolysis to the proton pump. The direct binding interaction between V-ATPase and aldolase may be a new mechanism for the regulation of the V-ATPase and may underlie the proximal tubule acidification defect in hereditary fructose intolerance.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Substantial evidence indicates that lithium may exert its therapeutic effects through progressive adaptive changes at the level of gene expression; however, the study of lithium-regulated genes has been primarily undertaken with the "candidate gene" approach based on a specific testable hypothesis. The aim of our study was to identify lithium-regulated genes that would not be predicted a priori by the candidate gene approach. METHODS Differential display polymerase chain reaction was used to isolate and identify messenger RNAs (mRNAs) that are differentially expressed in the frontal cortex of rats given lithium for 5 weeks to achieve plasma lithium concentrations of 0.6 to 0.9 mmol/L. RESULTS A putative lithium-regulated complementary DNA fragment (LRG1) was identified. Northern blot analysis revealed that 5 weeks of lithium treatment, but not 1 week, significantly reduced LRG1 mRNA levels. LRG1 mRNA levels were similarly reduced by 5 weeks of carbamazepine, but not valproate administration. Sequence analysis and search of the GenBank database revealed that LRG1 is analogous to the sequence of the gene for rat aldolase A. CONCLUSIONS These results demonstrate that chronic administration of lithium, but not short-term administration, down regulates the levels of aldolase A mRNA, suggesting this effect may play a role in mediating the therapeutic action of this agent.

Abstract
A common characteristic of tumor cells is the constant overexpression of glycolytic and glutaminolytic enzymes. In tumor cells the hyperactive hexokinase and the partly inactive pyruvate kinase lead to an expansion of all phosphometabolites from glucose 6-phosphate to phosphoenolpyruvate. In addition to the glycolytic phosphometabolites, synthesis of their metabolic derivatives such as P-ribose-PP, NADH, NADPH, UTP, CTP, and UDP-N-acetyl glucosamine is also enhanced during cell proliferation. Another phosphometabolite derived from P-ribose-PP, AMP, inhibits cell proliferation. The accumulation of AMP inhibits both P-ribose-PP-synthetase and the increase in concentration of phosphometabolites derived from P-ribose-PP. In cells with low glycerol 3-phosphate and malate-aspartate shuttle capacities the inhibition of the lactate dehydrogenase by low NADH levels leads to an inhibition of glycolytic ATP production. Several tumor-therapeutic drugs reduce NAD and NADH levels, thereby inhibiting glycolytic energy production. The role of AMP, NADH, and NADPH levels in the success of chemotherapeutic treatment is discussed.

Abstract
Our goal was to quantitate inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) binding to aldolase C tetramer (aldolase4) and its displacement by inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate (Ins(1,3,4)P3) under conditions which approximated the in vivo state. Anions were found to have major effects. Decreasing [KCl] from 100 to 10mM, at 0 degrees C and pH 7.0, increased maximal Ins(1,4,5)P3 binding to 1.0 to 2.4mol per mol aldolase4. At 10 and 30mEq/l [Cl-], an additional high affinity site was detected (Kds = 0.43 and 0.86 microM, respectively). Increasing concentrations of other anions (SO42-, propanoate-, HCO3-, acetate-) also inhibited binding, but effects would be minimal at concentrations of these anions present in the cytoplasm of living cells. Ins(1,3,4)P3 displacement of aldolase C-bound Ins(1,4,5)P3 was sensitive to [Cl-]; at 30mEq/l [Cl-] and 37 degrees C, Ins(1,3,4)P3 released 20% of bound Ins(1,4,5)P3 at concentrations of 100nM. Changing temperature from 0 to 37 degrees C increased Kds for Ins(1,4,5)P3 binding. Changes in free [Ca2+], [Mg2+], [Na+] and [K+] and changes in osmolality had no effect on Ins(1,4,5)P3 binding to aldolase C. In vivo Ins(1,4,5)P3-aldolase4 binding at 30mEq/l [Cl-] and 37 degrees C were calculated for different [Ins(1,4,5)P3]free over the range 0.2 to 1.0 microM. For different cytoplasmic [Ins(1,4,5)P3]free. Ins(1,4,5)P3 binding to aldolase4 was sufficient, if acutely released, to nearly double cytoplasmic [Ins(1,4,5)P3]free. We proposed a schema whereby release of aldolase C-bound Ins(1,4,5)P3 evoked by Ins(1,3,4)P3 amplifies effects of phospholipase C-formed Ins(1,4,5)P3.

Abstract
Mixed disulphide formation in the presence of oxidized glutathione reversibly inactivates rabbit skeletal muscle aldolase. Inactivation is allosteric, preferentially modifying Cys-72 on the surface of the aldolase homotetramer distant from active-site locations and subunit interfaces. Ion-exchange chromatography fractionates partly inactivated aldolase into three distinct enzymic species: unmodified enzyme, inactive fully modified enzyme corresponding to one thiol reacted per subunit, and inactive singly modified enzyme in which only one thiol has reacted. Acid-precipitable enzymic intermediates formed in the presence of substrate, D-fructose 1,6-bisphosphate, and product, dihydroxyacetone phosphate, indicates that active site binding is unaffected upon modification. The absence of enamine carbanion formation in the presence of substrate but not product is consistent with mixed disulphide formation's blocking -C-C- cleavage and/or subsequent D-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate release. Inactivation upon single subunit modification and substrate protection against modification denotes that the blocked step is associated with a long-range conformational transition involving highly co-operative subunit behaviour.

Abstract
Myelin proteolipid protein (PLP) and its alternatively spliced isoform, DM-20, are the major integral membrane proteins of central nervous system myelin. It is known that PLP and DM-20 are delivered to myelin by a finely regulated vesicular transport system in oligodendrocytes. Evolutionarily, it is believed that ancestral DM-20 acquired a PLP-specific exon to create PLP, after which PLP/DM-20 became a major component of central nervous system myelin. We purified PLP as an inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate-binding protein after solubilization in a non-organic solvent. However, under the isotonic condition, PLP binds inositol hexakisphosphate (InsP6) significantly, not inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate. Most of the InsP6-binding proteins are involved in vesicular transport, suggesting the involvement of PLP in vesicular transport. We separated DM-20 from PLP by CM-52 chromatography and showed that DM-20 has no InsP6 binding activity. These findings indicate that the PLP-specific domain confers the InsP6 binding activity and this interaction may be important for directing PLP transport to central nervous system myelin.

Abstract
Phenylephrine, a potent stimulator of cardiomyocyte glucose transport (GT), caused a rapid rise in cytosolic Ca2+ by 30%. Agents inducing a similar Ca2+ response did not stimulate (angiotension II, vasopressin) or inhibited GT by 20% (elevated extracellular Ca2+). Stimulation of GT by phorbol myristate acetate was additive to both phases of phenylephrine's effect (4 min, 60 min). Phenylephrine had no influence on the adenosine 3', 5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) and guanosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cGMP) levels. Agents raising cAMP (isoproterenol) or cGMP (e.g., nitroprusside) did not stimulate GT. Wortmannin (inhibitor of 1-phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase) suppressed the action of insulin on GT but not that of phenylephrine. In contrast, the Na+/H+ exchange inhibitor amiloride (which blocks phenylephrine-induced cytosolic alkalinization or even lowers cellular pH) depressed the effect of phenylephrine by 50%, whereas insulin-stimulated GT was little affected. However, raising extracellular pH up to 8.4 failed to increase GT. Lowering pH to 6.8 decreased phenylephrine's effect by 40% whereas insulin-dependent GT was not significantly altered. Clorgyline, tranylcypromine (monoamine oxidase inhibitors), and added catalase suppressed the slow phase of phenylephrine's action, whereas amiloride also affected the fast phase. We conclude that 1) stimulation of cardiomyocyte GT by phenylephrine does not involve cAMP, cGMP, or 1-phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase; 2) protein kinase C activation cannot explain the full extent of stimulation; 3) Ca2+ release or cytosolic alkalinization may be required but is not sufficient to trigger phenylephrine's action, and 4) the slow phase of stimulation is mediated by the monoamine oxidase-dependent degradation of phenylephrine and by the resulting H2O2 formation.

Abstract
A cytoskeletal fraction of porcine tracheal smooth muscle (PTSM) was found to contain > 90% of total cellular aldolase (fructose 1,6-bisphosphate aldolase, EC 4.1.2.13) activity. PTSM aldolase was purified by DEAE and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) affinity chromatography and found to react with an antibody directed against human aldolase C, but not anti-aldolase A and B. The molecular mass of native aldolase was about 138 kDa (on Sephacryl S-300); SDS-denatured enzyme was 35 kDa (comigrated with rabbit skeletal muscle aldolase). Total cellular aldolase tetramer (aldolase4) content was 34.5 pmol/100 nmol lipid P(i). Ins(1,4,5)P3) binding activity coeluted with aldolase during Sephacryl 300, DEAE, and Ins(1,4,5)P3 affinity chromatography. Ins(1,4,5)P3 bound to purified aldolase (at 0 degree C) in a dose-dependent manner over the range [Ins(1,4,5)P3] 20 nM to 20 microM, with maximal binding of 1 mol of Ins(1,4,5)P3/mol aldolase4 and a Kd of 12-14 microM. Fru(1,6)P2 and Fru(2,6)P2 displaced bound Ins(1,4,5)P3) with a 50% inhibition at 30 and 170 microM, respectively. Ins(1,3,4)P3 (20 microM) and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (2 mM) were also potent inhibitors of Ins(1,4,5)P3 binding, but not inositol 4-phosphate or inositol 1,4-bisphosphate (20 microM each). Aldolase-bound Ins(1,4,5)P3 may play a role in phospholipase C-independent increases in free [Ins(1,4,5)P3].

Abstract
To understand how inositol phosphates (InsP) cause Ca2+ influx, we injected 37 highly purified compounds containing a total of 49 InsP positional isomers into Xenopus oocytes. The eight InsP that stimulated Ca2+ influx were those that had the highest potency at releasing intracellular Ca2+, indicating that their common target was the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3] receptor. To cause Ca2+ influx, these InsP had to be injected in a much higher concentration than the minimal concentration required to release intracellular Ca2+. Such high InsP concentrations could inhibit ongoing oscillatory intracellular Ca2+ release. In addition, we found that InsPs could not elicit further intracellular Ca2+ release during the course of Ca2+ influx. Our data are consistent with the "capacitative Ca2+ entry" hypothesis, which states that InsP stimulate Ca2+ influx by depleting the InsP-sensitive intracellular Ca2+ store. In this context, we would suggest that to deplete the InsP-sensitive intracellular Ca2+ store, InsP may have to be present in a sufficiently high concentration to override the oscillatory Ca(2+)-refilling mechanisms of the stores.

Abstract
1. HL60 promyeloid cells contain high intracellular concentrations of inositol polyphosphates, notably inositol 1,3,4,5,6-pentakisphosphate (InsP5) and inositol hexakisphosphate (InsP6). To determine their intracellular location(s), we studied the release of inositol (poly)phosphates, of ATP, and of cytosolic and granule-enclosed enzymes from cells permeabilized by four different methods. 2. When cells were treated with digitonin, all of the inositol phosphates were released in parallel with the cytosolic constituents. Most of the InsP5 and InsP6 was released before significant permeabilization of azurophil granules. 3. Similar results were obtained from cells preloaded with ethylene glycol and permeabilized by osmotic lysis. 4. Electroporation at approximately 500 V/cm caused rapid release of free inositol. Higher field strengths provoked release of most of the ATP, InsP5 and InsP6, but only slight release of the intracellular enzymes. Multiple discharges released approximately 80-90% of total InsP5 and InsP6. In the absence of bivalent-cation chelators, InsP5 and InsP6 were released less readily than ATP. 5. Treatment of cells with Staphylococcus aureus alpha-toxin caused quantitative release of inositol and ATP, without release of intracellular enzymes. However, inositol phosphates were released much less readily than inositol or ATP. Even after prolonged incubation with a high concentration of alpha-toxin, only approximately 50-70% of InsP2, InsP3 and InsP4 and < or = 20% of InsP5 and InsP6 were released, indicating that the high charge or large hydrated radius of InsP5 and InsP6 might limit their release through small toxin-induced pores. 6. These results indicate that most intracellular inositol metabolites are either in, or in rapid exchange with, the cytosolic compartment of HL60 cells. However, they leave open the possibility that a small proportion of cellular InsP5 and InsP6 (< or = 10-20%) might be in some intracellular bound form.

Abstract
1. The mobilization of Ca2+ from intracellular stores by D-myo-inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate[Ins(1,4,5)P3] is now widely accepted as the primary link between plasma membrane receptors that stimulate phospholipase C and the subsequent increase in intracellular free Ca2+ that occurs when such receptors are activated (Berridge, 1993). Since the observations of Volpe et al. (1985) which showed that Ins(1,4,5)P3 could induce Ca2+ release from isolated terminal cisternae membranes and elicit contracture of chemically skinned muscle fibres, research has focused on the role of Ins(1,4,5)P3 in the generation of SR Ca2+ transients and in the mechanism of excitation-contraction coupling (EC-coupling). 2. The mechanism of signal transduction at the triadic junction during EC-coupling is unknown. Asymmetric charge movement and mechanical coupling between highly specialized triadic proteins has been proposed as the primary mechanism for voltage-activated generation of SR Ca2+ signals and subsequent contraction. Ins(1,4,5)P3 has also been proposed as the major signal transduction molecule for the generation of the primary Ca2+ transient produced during EC-coupling. 3. Investigations on the generation of Ca2+ transients by Ins(1,4,5)P3 have been conducted on ion channels incorporated into lipid bilayers, skinned and intact fibres and isolated membrane vesicles. Ins(1,4,5)P3 induces SR Ca2+ release and the enzymes responsible for its synthesis and degradation are present in muscle tissue. However, the sensitivity of the Ca2+ release mechanism to Ins(1,4,5)P3 is highly dependent on experimental conditions and on membrane potential. 4. While Ins(1,4,5)P3 may not be the major signal transduction molecule for the generation of the primary Ca2+ signal produced during voltage-activated contraction, this inositol polyphosphate may play a functional role as a modulator of EC-coupling and/or of the processes of myoplasmic Ca2+ regulation occurring on a time scale of seconds, during the events of contraction.

Abstract
To further understand how the second messenger D-myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3] interacts with its intracellular receptor, we injected 47 highly purified inositol phosphate (InsP) positional isomers in Xenopus oocytes and compared their potency in releasing intracellular Ca2+. The potency of the Ca(2+)-releasing InsPs spanned four orders of magnitude. Seven compounds, including the novel inositol 1,2,4,5-tetrakisphosphate [D/L-Ins (1,2,4,5)P4] and D/L-Ins(1,4,6)P3, had a very high potency. All of these highly active InsPs shared the following structure: two D-trans-equatorial phosphates (eq-P) and one equatorial hydroxyl (eq-OH) attached to ring carbons D-4, D-5, and D-6 (or to the structurally equivalent D-1, D-6, and D-5 carbons). This permissive structure was not sufficient for Ca2+ release, because it was also found in two inactive compounds, Ins(1,6)P2 and Ins(1,3,6)P3. To be active, InsPs also required the structural equivalent of a D-3 eq-OH and/or a D-1 eq-P. Together, our data reveal how the structure of the InsP molecule affects its ability to release Ca2+.

Abstract
A major "non-receptor" phosphotyrosine-specific protein phosphatase isolated from the 30,000g pellet fraction of porcine spleen is related to the human T-cell tyrosine phosphatase (Cool et al. (1989) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 86, 5257-5261) and is strongly inhibited by micromolar concentrations of phosphatidyl inositol (IC50 6 microM) and phosphatidyl serine (IC50 3.7 microM). In addition, the enzyme is inhibited by myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IC50 ca. 2 microM) in a non-competitive manner but not by myo-inositol hexaphosphate. Since the overall cellular tyrosine phosphatase activity greatly exceeds tyrosine kinase activity, inhibition of the phosphatase may be of importance for the regulation of the extent of tyrosine phosphorylation of cellular proteins.

Abstract
Reductive, nonreductive, and photolytic interactions of vanadate with fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolase were examined and used to explore the interactions of oxoanions with aldolase. Aldolase is known to interact strongly with oxoanions at low ionic strength and weakly at higher ionic strength. Oxoanions inhibit aldolase competitively with respect to fructose 1,6-bisphosphate although the location of the oxoanion binding site on aldolase remains elusive. In this work, the interaction of aldolase with a series of oxoanions was compared at ionic strength approaching physiologic levels. The size and shape of the anion were important for the effective binding to aldolase, and no significant increase in affinity for aldolase was observed by the addition of alkyl groups to the oxoanions. Vanadate competitively inhibits aldolase in a manner analogous to the other oxoanions. Since vanadate solutions contain a mixture of vanadate oxoanions, the nature of the inhibition was determined using a combination of enzyme kinetics and 51V NMR spectroscopy. Aldolase contains a significant number of thiol functionalities, and as expected, vanadate undergoes redox chemistry with them, generating an irreversibly inhibited aldolase. This oxidative chemistry was attributed to the vanadate tetramer, whereas vanadate dimer was a reversible inhibitor. Vanadate monomer does not significantly interact with aldolase reversibly or irreversibly. Vanadyl cation has the lowest inhibition constant under these high ionic strength conditions. Using Yonetani-Theorell analysis, it appears that phosphate, pyrophosphate, and sulfate bind to the same site on aldolase, whereas vanadate, arsenate, and molybdate bind to another site. UV light-induced photocleavage of aldolase by vanadate was examined, and the loss of aldolase activity was correlated with cleavage of the aldolase subunit. Further studies using vanadium as a probe should reveal details on the location of the vanadate and vanadyl cation binding sites. This study suggests several sites on aldolase will accommodate oxoanions, and one of these sites also accommodates vanadyl cation.

Abstract
Pool sizes of inositol phosphate species in myo-[3H]inositol-labeled porcine tracheal smooth muscle were determined under three conditions: (a) unstimulated; (b) stimulated with carbachol; (c) atropine-relaxed from a carbachol contraction. In unstimulated muscle, the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) content was 14 pmol/100 nmol lipid P1. This is equivalent to a mean [Ins(1,4,5)P3] of about 3 microM (in total cellular water), a level about 30-fold in excess of that required for Ca2+ release from Ins(1,4,5)P3-sensitive sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). Pool sizes of breakdown products of Ins(1,4,5)P3 were relatively small or absent in unstimulated muscle, suggesting that, under this condition, Ins(1,4,5)P3 was sequestered and had limited access to Ins(1,4,5)P3 5-phosphatase and/or 3-kinase. During carbachol stimulation, the Ins(1,4,5)P3 pool did not increase while those of other mono-, di-, and trisphosphate isomers increased over 10-fold. Subsequent atropine-induced relaxation resulted in a partial depletion (40%) of total tissue Ins(1,4,5)P3. Decreases in Ins(1,4,5)P3 were paralleled by decreases in Ins(1,4)P2 and Ins(1,3,4)P3. During contraction a portion of total tissue Ins(1,4,5)P3 has access to Ins(1,4,5)P3 3-kinase and 5-phosphatase and to Ins(1,4,5)P3-sensitive SR, though during antagonist-induced relaxation access to Ins(1,4,5)P3-sensitive SR for Ca2+ release is restricted. Data are consistent with a mechanism by which a large pool of Ins(1,4,5)P3 present in the unstimulated state in a sequestered compartment can contribute in activated muscle to increases in [Ins(1,4,5)P3] in a nonsequestered compartment, controlling SR Ca2+ release.

Abstract
Isolated skeletal muscle triads contain a compartmentalized glycolytic reaction sequence catalyzed by aldolase, triosephosphate isomerase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, and phosphoglycerate kinase. These enzymes express activity in the structure-associated state leading to synthesis of ATP in the triadic junction upon supply of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate or fructose 1,6-bisphosphate. ATP formation occurs transiently and appears to be kinetically compartmentalized, i.e., the synthesized ATP is not in equilibrium with the bulk ATP. The apparent rate constants of the aldolase and the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase/phosphoglycerate kinase reaction are significantly increased when fructose 1,6-bisphosphate instead of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate is employed as substrate. The observations suggest that fructose 1,6-bisphosphate is especially effectively channelled into the junctional gap. The amplitude of the ATP transient is decreasing with increasing free [Ca2+] in the range of 1 nM to 30 microM. In the presence of fluoride, the ATP transient is significantly enhanced and its declining phase is substantially retarded. This observation suggests utilization of endogenously synthesized ATP in part by structure associated protein kinases and phosphatases which is confirmed by the detection of phosphorylated triadic proteins after gel electrophoresis and autoradiography. Endogenous protein kinases phosphorylate proteins of apparent Mr 450,000, 180,000, 160,000, 145,000, 135,000, 90,000, 54,000, 51,000, and 20,000, respectively. Some of these phosphorylated polypeptides are in the Mr range of known phosphoproteins involved in excitation-contraction coupling of skeletal muscle, which might give a first hint at the functional importance of the sequential glycolytic reactions compartmentalized in triads.

Abstract
The masses of inositol phosphates have been determined in isolated skeletal muscles from Xenopus laevis (sartorius, tibialis anterior and iliofibularis) and rat (gastrocnemius and soleus) which were quick-frozen in the resting state and at different stages of an isometric (Xenopus) or isotonic (rat) tetanus. The isomeric spectrum of inositol phosphates detected was similar to that in other tissues and cell types. The total sarcoplasmic concentrations of the isomers Ins-(1,4,5,6)P4/Ins(3,4,5,6)P4 (0.2-0.9 microM), Ins(1,3,4,6)P4 (not detectable), Ins(1,3,4,5,6)P5 (about 1 microM) and InsP6 (3.2-4.6 microM) were lower than in other cell types. Variations in these concentrations were due to the muscle type rather than to the donor species. The putative second messenger Ins(1,4,5)P3, as well as its dephosphorylation product Ins(1,4)P2, were present at surprisingly high total myoplasmic resting concentrations, ranging from 1.2 to 2.5 microM and 3.5 to 6.9 microM respectively. Upon tetanic stimulation these two inositol phosphates in particular exhibited significantly increased total sarcoplasmic concentrations, up to 4.2 microM and 11.3 microM respectively, with a time scale of seconds. From the initial rate of increase in the total sarcoplasmic concentrations of Ins(1,4,5)P3 and its rapidly formed metabolic products, a minimal phosphoinositidase C (PIC) activity in tetanically activated Xenopus skeletal muscle of about 1.7-2.6 microM/s can be estimated. This PIC activity observed in vivo seems to be far too low to account for a functional role for Ins(1,4,5)P3 as a chemical transmitter in the fast excitation-contraction coupling (ECC) process in skeletal muscle. The presence of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 in all muscle types is indicative of a Ca(2+)-activated Ins(1,4,5)P3 3-kinase activity. The rapid transient increases in Ins(1,3,4)P3 and Ins(1,3)P2 in isometrically contracting Xenopus muscles suggest that corresponding Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 phosphatases are operating in skeletal muscle as well. In all muscles investigated except rat soleus, the fructose 1,6-bisphosphate [Fru(1,6)P2] concentration increased substantially during a tetanus, up to about 2 mM. This increase is correlated with a simultaneous decrease in phosphocreatine, whereas the energy charge of the muscles was essentially unaffected by the applied tetani. The time course of the rise in Fru(1,6)P2 was used to model changes in the free concentrations of high-affinity aldolase-binding inositol phosphates during the course of a tetanus. These calculations demonstrate that the free concentration of Ins(1,4,5)P3 and other aldolase-bound inositol phosphates can increase much faster and to a larger extent than the corresponding total concentrations as a result of their competitive displacement from aldolase-binding sites by the rapidly rising concentration of Fru(1,6)P2.

Abstract
The turnover of EF-Tu.GTP on poly-U programmed ribosomes was measured both in the presence and in the absence of N-acetylated Phe-tRNA(Phe) at the P-site. The reaction was uncoupled from protein synthesis by omitting Phe-tRNA(Phe) at the A-site. In this reaction, the ribosome can be considered as an enzyme catalysing the transition of EF-Tu.GTP to EF-Tu.GTP. A constant EF-Tu.GTP concentration is maintained by regenerating GDP to GTP at the expense of phosphoenolpyruvate by pyruvate kinase. The rate constants are determined using a procedure which corrects for the reduction in specific activity of GTP due to regeneration of the nucleotide. Ribosomes with an occupied P-site are more efficient in stimulating the GTPase of EF-Tu.GTP than ribosomes with an empty P-site. The data suggest that this is mainly caused by an increased affinity of EF-Tu.GTP for ribosomes with a filled P-site rather than by an enhanced reactivity of the GTPase centre.

Abstract
Binding of biological phosphate compounds to actin was investigated by the effect of these compounds on the critical concentration of the pointed ends of gelsolin-capped actin filaments. According to this assay millimolar concentrations of glucose 6-phosphate and the bisphosphorylated sugars fructose 1,6-bisphosphate, fructose 2,6-bisphosphate, glucose 1,6-bisphosphate, sedoheptulose 1,7-bisphosphate and 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate were found to associate with actin. Glycerophosphoinositol phosphates bound to actin if they were present in millimolar concentrations, and if carbon atom 4 of the inositol ring was phosphorylated and carbon atom 5 was free of phosphate. Also phosphoserine and phosphotyrosine were found to interact with actin. Most of the actin-binding compounds stabilized actin filaments by decreasing the critical concentration suggesting that these compounds had a higher affinity for the subunits along actin filaments than for actin monomers. However, 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate and fructose 2,6-bisphosphate increased the critical concentration probably because these sugar phosphates bound to actin monomers thereby inhibiting actin polymerization.

Abstract
1. Standard and high-performance anion-exchange-chromatographic techniques have been used to purify myo-[3H]inositol pentakisphosphates from various myo-[3H]inositol-prelabelled cells. Slime mould (Dictyostelium discoideum) contained 8 microM-myo-[3H]inositol 1,3,4,5,6-pentakisphosphate, 16 microM-myo-[3H]inositol 1,2,3,4,6-pentakisphosphate and 36 microM-D-myo-[3H]inositol 1,2,4,5,6-pentakisphosphate [calculated intracellular concentrations; Stephens & Irvine (1990) Nature (London) 346, 580-583]; germinating mung-bean (Phaseolus aureus) seedlings contained both D- and L-myo-[3H]inositol 1,2,4,5,6-pentakisphosphate (which was characterized by 31P and two-dimensional proton n.m.r.) and D- and/or L-myo-[3H]inositol 1,2,3,4,5-pentakisphosphate; HL60 cells contained myo-[3H]inositol 1,3,4,5,6-pentakisphosphate (in a 500-fold excess over the other species), myo-[3H]inositol 1,2,3,4,6-pentakisphosphate and D- and/or L-myo-[3H]inositol 1,2,4,5,6-pentakisphosphate; and NG-115-401L-C3 cells contained myo-[3H]inositol 1,3,4,5,6-pentakisphosphate (in a 100-fold excess over the other species), D- and/or L-myo-[3H]inositol 1,2,4,5,6-pentakisphosphate, myo-[3H]inositol 1,2,3,4,6-pentakisphosphate and D- and/or L-myo-[3H]inositol 1,2,3,4,5-pentakisphosphate. 2. Multiple soluble ATP-dependent myo-inositol pentakisphosphate kinase activities have been detected in slime mould, rat brain and germinating mung-bean seedling homogenates. In slime-mould cytosolic fractions, the three myo-inositol pentakisphosphates that were present in intact slime moulds could be phosphorylated to myo-[3H]inositol hexakisphosphate: the relative first-order rate constants for these reactions were, in the order listed above, 1:8:31 respectively (with first-order rate constants in the intact cell of 0.1, 0.8 and 3.1 s-1, assuming a cytosolic protein concentration of 50 mg/ml), and the Km values of the activities for their respective inositol phosphate substrates (in the presence of 5 mM-ATP) were 1.6 microM, 3.8 microM and 1.4 microM. At least two forms of myo-inositol pentakisphosphate kinase activity could be resolved from a slime-mould cytosolic fraction by both pharmacological and chromatographic criteria. Rat brain cytosol and a soluble fraction derived from germinating mung-bean seedlings could phosphorylate myo-inositol D/L-1,2,4,5,6-, D/L-1,2,3,4,5-, 1,2,3,4,6- and 1,3,4,5,6-pentakisphosphates to myo-inositol hexakisphosphate: the relative first-order rate constants were 57:27:77:1 respectively for brain cytosol (with first-order rate constants in the intact cell of 0.0041, 0.0019, 0.0056 and 0.000073 s-1 respectively, assuming a cytosolic protein concentration of 50 mg/ml) and 1:11:12:33 respectively for mung-bean cytosol (with first-order rate constants in a supernatant fraction with a protein concentration of 10 mg/ml of 0.0002, 0.0022, 0.0024 and 0.0066 s-1 respectively).

Abstract
Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) is a soluble intracellular messenger formed rapidly after activation of a variety of cell-surface receptors that stimulate phosphoinositidase C activity. The initial response to Ins(1,4,5)P3 is a rapid Ca2+ efflux from nonmitochondrial intracellular stores which are probably specialized subcompartments of the endoplasmic reticulum, although their exact identities remain unknown. This initial response is followed by more complex Ca2+ signals: regenerative Ca2+ waves propagate across the cell, repetitive Ca2+ spikes occur, and stimulated Ca2+ entry across the plasma membrane contributes to the sustained Ca2+ signal. The mechanisms underlying these complex Ca2+ signals are unknown, although Ins(1,4,5)P3 is clearly involved. The intracellular receptor that mediates Ins(1,4,5)P3-stimulated Ca2+ mobilization has been purified and functionally reconstituted, and its amino acid sequence deduced from its cDNA sequence. These studies demonstrate that the Ins(1,4,5)P3 receptor has an integral Ca2+ channel separated from the Ins(1,4,5)P3 binding site by a long stretch of residues some of which form binding sites for allosteric regulators, and some of which are substrates for phosphorylation. In this review, we discuss the ligand recognition characteristics of Ins(1,4,5)P3 receptors, and their functional properties in their native environment and after purification, and we relate these properties to what is known of the structure of the receptor. In addition to regulation by Ins(1,4,5)P3, the Ins(1,4,5)P3 receptor is subject to many additional regulatory influences which include Ca2+, adenine nucleotides, pH and phosphorylation by protein kinases. Many of the functional and structural characteristics of the Ins(1,4,5)P3 receptor show striking similarities to another intracellular Ca2+ channel, the ryanodine receptor. These properties of the Ins(1,4,5)P3 are discussed, and their possible roles in contributing to the complex Ca2+ signals evoked by extracellular stimuli are considered.

Abstract
Skeletal muscle triads are possessing the whole set of enzymes of the phosphatidylinositol (PI)-linked signal generating pathway, PI-kinase, PI(4)P-kinase, and PI(4,5)P2-phospholipase C (PLC). The activities of these enzymes are comparable to those found in other cell types for which a functional role of the PI-pathway in intracellular signal transduction has been established. For skeletal muscle an unequivocal function and an initiating signal for Ins(1,4,5)P3-liberation is still unknown. However, the observed Ca-dependency of PLC activity suggests that here Ins(1,4,5)P3 production is a consequence rather than a cause of increasing cytosolic Ca2+. Recently, the glycolytic enzyme aldolase, whose activity can be modulated by inositol polyphosphates, has been localized in the triadic structure. The enzyme which has a high affinity to Ins(1,4)P2, Ins(1,4,5)P3 and Ins(1,3,4,5)P4, seems to be compartmentalized to the junctional foot structure from which it is released upon binding of these molecules. This phenomenon could reflect a capability for regulation of the glycolytic flux even for aldolase, especially if a non steady-state situation in the junctional gap is considered. Meanwhile we have accumulated evidence for the operation of a partial glycolytic sequence in the junctional region established by the enzymes aldolase, glyceraldehyde-3-P (GAP) dehydrogenase and phosphoglycerate kinase. This system is able to produce ATP upon oxidation of GAP and could be, because of the inositol polyphosphate-sensing abilities of aldolase, a target for the membrane associated PI-pathway. The ATP production is however transient which indicates the coupling to an ATP hydrolyzing reaction.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
We have synthesized two photolabile arylazido-analogues of Ins(1,4,5)P3 selectively substituted at the 1-phosphate group for determination of Ins(1,4,5)P3-binding proteins. These two photoaffinity derivatives, namely N-(4-azidobenzoyl)aminoethanol-1-phospho-D-myo-inositol 4,5-bisphosphate (AbaIP3) and N-(4-azidosalicyl)aminoethanol-1-phospho-D-myo-inositol 4,5-bisphosphate (AsaIP3), bind to high affinity Ins(1,4,5)P3-specific binding sites at a 9-fold lower affinity (Kd = 66 and 70 nM) than Ins(1,4,5)P3 (Kd = 7.15 nM) in a fraction from rat pancreatic acinar cells enriched in endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Other inositol phosphates tested showed comparable (DL-myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphothioate, Kd = 81 nM) or much lower affinities for the binding sites [Ins(1,3,4,5)P4, Kd = 4 microM; Ins(1,4)P2, Kd = 80 microM]. Binding of AbaIP3 was also tested on a microsomal preparation of rat cerebellum [Kd = 300 nM as compared with Ins(1,4,5)P3, Kd = 45 nM]. Ca2+ release activity of the inositol derivatives was tested with AbaIP3. It induced a rapid and concentration-dependent Ca2+ release from the ER fraction [EC50 (dose producing half-maximal effect) = 3.1 microM] being only 10-fold less potent than Ins(1,4,5)P3 (EC50 = 0.3 microM). From the two radioactive labelled analogues ([3H]AbaIP3 and 125I-AsIP3) synthesized, the radioiodinated derivative was used for photoaffinity labelling. It specifically labelled three proteins with apparent molecular masses of 49, 37 and 31 kDa in the ER-enriched fraction. By subfractionation of this ER-enriched fraction on a Percoll gradient the 37 kDa Ins(1,4,5)P3 binding protein was obtained in a membrane fraction which showed the highest effect in Ins(1,4,5)P3-inducible Ca2+ release (fraction P1). The other two Ins(1,4,5)P3-binding proteins, of 49 and 31 kDa, were obtained in fraction P2, in which Ins(1,4,5)P3-induced Ca2+ release was half of that obtained in fraction P1. We conclude from these data that the 37 kDa and/or the 49 and 31 kDa proteins are involved in Ins(1,4,5)P3-induced Ca2+ release from the ER of rat pancreatic acinar cells.

Abstract
[3H]Inositol hexakisphosphate (InsP6) binds with a heterogeneous distribution to frozen sections of unfixed rat brain and is displaced by unlabelled InsP6. The pattern of binding correlates with binding to neuronal cell bodies. [3H]InsP6 binding to cerebellar membranes has been further characterised, is reversible, and saturable, and exhibits high specificity for inositol polyphosphates. The IC50 for competition by unlabelled InsP6 is approximately 100nM, whereas inositol 1,3,4,5,6 pentakisphosphate (Ins(13456)P5), inositol 1,3,4,5 tetrakisphosphate (Ins(1345)P4), and inositol 1,4,5 trisphosphate (Ins(145)P3) bind with an affinity at least one order of magnitude lower. [3H]InsP6 binding is clearly distinct from previously characterised Ins(145)P3 (ref. 1, 2) and Ins(1345)P4 (ref. 3) binding, both in terms of pharmacology and brain distribution.

Abstract
Isolated triadic proteins were employed to investigate the molecular architecture of the triad junction in skeletal muscle. Immunoaffinity-purified junctional foot protein (JFP), glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), aldolase and partially purified dihydropyridine (DHP) receptor were employed to probe protein-protein interactions using affinity chromatography, protein overlay and crosslinking techniques. The JFP, an integral protein of the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) preferentially binds to GAPDH and aldolase, peripheral proteins of the transverse (T)-tubule. No direct binding of JFP to the DHP receptor was detected. The interactions of JFP with GAPDH and aldolase appear to be specific since other glycolytic enzymes associated with membranes do not bind to the JFP. The DHP receptor, an integral protein of the T-tubule, also binds GAPDH and aldolase. A ternary complex between the JFP and the DHP receptor can be formed in the presence of GAPDH. In addition, the DHP receptor binds to a previously undetected Mr 95 K protein which is distinct from the SR Ca2+ pump and phosphorylase b. The Mr 95 K protein is an integral protein of the junctional domain of the SR terminal cisternae. It is also present in the newly identified "strong triads" (accompanying paper). From these findings, we propose a new model for the triad junction.

Abstract
The hydrolysis of inositol lipids triggered by the occupation of cell surface receptors generates several intracellular messengers. Many different inositol phosphate isomers accumulate in stimulated cells. Of these D-myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins 1,4,5-P3) is responsible for discharging Ca2+ from intracellular stores. Specific membrane binding sites for Ins 1,4,5-P3 have been detected. The properties of these sites and their possible relationship to the calcium release process is reviewed. Ins 1,4,5-P3 binding sites may be present in discrete subcellular structures ("calciosomes"). Kinetic and some electrophysiological evidence indicates that Ins 1,4,5-P3 acts to open a Ca2+ channel. Recent progress on the purification of the receptor from neuronal tissues is summarized. Phosphorylation of Ins 1,4,5-P3 by a specific kinase results in the production of D-myo-inositol 1,3,4,5-tetraphosphate (Ins 1,3,4,5-P4). This inositol phosphate has been reported to increase the entry of Ca2+ across the plasma membrane, activate nonspecific ion channels in the plasma membrane, alter the Ca2+ content of the Ins 1,4,5-P3-releasable store, and bind to and alter the activity of certain enzymes. These data and the possible biological significance of Ins 1,3,4,5-P4 are discussed.

Abstract
Previous studies demonstrated the accumulation of inositol mono- and poly-phosphates in carbamoylcholine-stimulated cultured cardiac ventricular myocytes of adult rats [Berg, Guse & Gercken (1989) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 1010, 100-107]. Stimulation with noradrenaline (50 microM) in the presence of propranolol (10 microM) led to a time-dependent pattern of inositol mono- and poly-phosphates in cultured cardiac-ventricular myocytes. Ins(1,4,5)P3 and Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 increased in a rapid initial phase. The degradation products of Ins(1,4,5)P3, namely Ins(1,4)P2 and Ins(4)P, accumulated between 1 and 15 min. Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 was rapidly dephosphorylated to Ins(1,3,4)P3, which was then metabolized to Ins(1,3)P2 and Ins(3,4)P2. The last two InsP2 isomers and their degradation products, Ins(1)P and Ins(3)P (determined as an enantiomeric mixture), increased at extended stimulation periods. To confirm the pathway of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 degradation, homogenates of isolated ventricular myocytes were incubated with [3H]INs(1,3,4,5)P4. The subsequent products were Ins(1,3,4)P3, Ins(3,4)P2, Ins(1,3)P2 and InsP. The effect of noradrenaline was antagonized by prazosin (0.1 microM), but not by yohimbine (0.1 microM), indicating phosphoinositidase activation via the alpha 1-adrenoceptor.

Abstract
The allosteric effects of various inositol biphosphate (InsP2) isomers and other inositol phosphates, of glycerophosphoinositol phosphates (GroPInsPx) and of phosphoinositides (PtdInsPx) on muscle-type 6-phosphofructo-1-kinase (PFK) were investigated. The binding of these substances to PFK was indirectly estimated by their ability to stabilize the tetrameric enzyme. At near-physiological concentrations of other allosteric effectors, muscle PFK was activated AMP-dependently by Ins(1,4)P2 (Ka = 43 microM), Ins(2,4)P2 (Ka = 70 microM) and GroPIns4P (Ka = 20 microM). These compounds activated PFK by a mechanism similar to that established for activating hexose bisphosphates. Indirect binding experiments indicated minimal Kd,app. values of about 5 microM for the binding of Ins(1,4)P2 in the presence of 0.1 mM-AMP at pH 7.4. This apparent affinity was comparable with that of fructose 1,6-bisphosphate and glucose 1,6-bisphosphate at identical conditions. The enzyme was also found to interact specifically with PtdIns4P (Kd,app. = 37 microM), the inositol phospholipid carrying Ins(1,4)P2 as its head group. The regulatory behaviour of muscle-type PFK in vitro and the concentrations of Ins(1,4)P2 in vivo (between 4 and greater than 50 nmol/g wet wt. of tissue) are consistent with the hypothesis that there is a functional interaction in vivo. Furthermore, a role of PtdIns4P in membrane compartmentation of PFK is suggested. Comparative experiments with liver PFK indicate that these regulatory properties may be relatively specific for the muscle isoform. Unlike muscle PFK, the liver isoform was slightly activated by sub-micromolar concentrations of Ins(1,4,5)P3.

Abstract
Biochemical approaches toward understanding the mechanism of muscle excitation have in recent years been directed to identification and isolation of proteins of the triad junction. The principal protein described--the junctional foot protein (JFP)2--was initially identified by morphological criteria and isolated using antibody-affinity chromatography. Subsequently this protein was described as the ryanodine receptor. It has been isolated and incorporated into lipid bilayers as a cation channel. This in its turn has directed attention toward the transverse (T)-tubular junctional constituents. Three approaches employing the JFP as a probe toward identifying these moieties on the T-tubule are described here. The binding of the JFP to the dihydropyridine receptor, which has been hypothesized to be the voltage sensor in excitation-contraction coupling, is also discussed. The detailed architecture and function of T-tubular proteins remain to be resolved.

Abstract
Rabbit fast-twitch skeletal muscle microsomes have been separated by isopycnic centrifugation on a linear sucrose gradient into triads and light sarcoplasmic reticulum. In both fractions phosphatidylinositol-kinase activity is found [Varsányi et al. (1986) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 138, 1395]. In contrast, phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate kinase is nearly exclusively associated with triads. The phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate-phosphodiesterase activity shows a biphasic distribution: approximately 50% of the activity is associated with triads and 50% appears in the overlay. Triads have been broken mechanically into transverse tubules and terminal cisternae, then separated by isopycnic sucrose-gradient centrifugation. Both fractions exhibit phosphatidylinositol-kinase activity; the activities of phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate kinase and phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate phosphodiesterase are associated mainly with the transverse tubules. Consequently, in rabbit fast-twitch skeletal muscle all necessary enzymes for production of D-myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate are associated with transverse tubules. Phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate phosphodiesterase associated with triads shows a pH optimum at 6.8. The enzyme is maximally active between pCa 5 and pCa 4. Mg2+ inhibits the enzyme activity half-maximally at about 1 mM. Guanine-nucleotide-binding proteins seem not to be involved in the regulation of enzyme activity; guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate does not influence phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate phosphodiesterase activity. It correlates well with the observation that neither alpha 1-adrenergic nor muscarinic receptors have been found in fast-twitch rabbit skeletal muscle. On basis of the respective enzyme activities estimations on maximal phosphatidylinositol turnover were made and a possible involvement of this signal pathway in excitation-contraction coupling has been discussed. Furthermore, calculations show that during a single twitch D-myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate concentration does not reach more than 2 nM. However, during a 4-s tetanus D-myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate can accumulate to a level which could effect force generation [Thieleczek and Heilmeyer (1986) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 135, 662] and aldolase distribution (Thieleczek et al., unpublished results).

Abstract
Derivatives of inositol 1,4,5-(tris)phosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3] substituted at phosphate 1 were compared with respect to their calcium releasing effect in permeabilized guinea pig parotid acinar cells and to their inhibitory action on aldolase A. sn-Glycero(3)-1-phospho-D-myo-inositol-4,5-(bis)phosphate, but also glycolaldehyde(2)-1-phospho-D-myo-inositol-4,5-(bis)phosphate [GcaPIns(4,5)P2] and its derivative N-octyl-aminoethanol(1)-1-phospho-D-myo-inositol-4,5-(bis)phosphate stimulated calcium release and inhibited aldolase A. The relative efficacy of the different derivatives of Ins(1,4,5)P3 was similar for both effects. N-Hydroxyethyl-2-aminoethanol(1)-1-phospho-D-myo-inositol-4,5-(bis)phosp hate [HeAetPIns(4,5)P2], another derivative of GcaPIns(4,5)P2 was considerably less effective on both parameters than the other Ins(1,4,5)P3 derivatives. Although the concentration leading to half-maximal activation of calcium release varied from 1.7 microM for Ins(1,4,5)P3 to 128 microM for HeAetPIns(4,5)P2, the maximal effect was the same for all derivatives. The results indicate that the 1-phosphate group of Ins(1,4,5)P3 can be modified without or with only minor loss of biological activity. This may be utilized for future studies aiming at elucidating the putative Ins(1,4,5)P3 binding site.

Abstract
Homogenates of primary-cultured murine bone macrophages contain an enzyme capable of synthesizing myo-[3H]inositol pentakisphosphate from myo-[3H]inositol tetrakisphosphate fractions derived from myo-[3H]inositol-labelled mouse macrophages and chick erythrocytes. D-myo-inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakis[32P]-phosphate present in the same incubations was not phosphorylated. Since the myo-[3H]inositol-labelled tetrakisphosphate fractions used as substrates consist of a mixture of L-myo-inositol 1,4,5,6-tetrakisphosphate (60-85%) and a periodate-resistant tetrakisphosphate(s) whose characteristics are consistent with those of D-myo-inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate (the preceding paper [Stephens, Hawkins, Carter, Chahwala, Morris, Whetton & Downes (1988) Biochem. J. 249, 271-282] ), these data suggest the existence of a kinase that phosphorylates L-myo-inositol 1,4,5,6-tetrakisphosphate to give a myo-inositol pentakisphosphate. A similar activity was identified in homogenates of rat cerebrum, liver, heart and parotid gland. D-myo-Inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakis[32P]phosphate in the same incubations was not a substrate. The activity was almost entirely soluble in all the tissues investigated and was found at its greatest specific activity in brain cytosol. The activity was purified 120-fold from a rat brain homogenate by (NH4)2SO4 fractionation and anion-exchange chromatography. The activity was clearly distinct from D-myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (3-hydroxy)kinase. Incubation of this partially purified preparation with L-myo-[3H]inositol 1,4,5,6-tetrakisphosphate from chick erythrocytes and [gamma-32P]ATP resulted in the formation of L-myo-[3H]-inositol [1-32P]1,3,4,5,6-pentakisphosphate. The enzyme is therefore identified as an L-myo-inositol 1,4,5,6-tetrakisphosphate (3-hydroxy)kinase.

Abstract
The molecular architecture of the rabbit skeletal muscle aldolase (D-fructose-1,6-bisphosphate D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate-lyase, EC 4.1.2.13) tetramer has been determined to 2.7-A resolution. Solution of the three-dimensional structure of rabbit muscle aldolase utilized phase information from a single isomorphous Pt(CN)4(2-) derivative, which was combined with iterative-phase refinement based upon the noncrystallographic 222-fold symmetry exhibited by the tetramer subunits. The electron-density map calculated from the refined phases (mf = 0.72) was interpreted on the basis of the known amino acid sequence (363 amino acids per subunit). The molecular architecture of the aldolase subunit corresponds to a singly wound beta-barrel of the parallel alpha/beta class structures as has been observed in triose phosphate isomerase, pyruvate kinase, phosphogluconate aldolase, as well as others. Close contacts between tetramer subunits are virtually all between regions of hydrophobic residues. Contrary to other beta-barrel structures, the known active-site residues are located in the center of the beta-barrel and are accessible to substrate from the COOH side of the beta-barrel. Biochemical and crystallographic data suggest that the COOH-terminal region of aldolase covers the active-site pocket from the COOH side of the beta-barrel and mediates access to the active site. On the basis of sequence studies, active-site residues as well as residues lining the active-site pocket have been totally conserved throughout evolution. By comparison, homology in the COOH-terminal region is minimal. It is suggested that the amino acid sequence of the COOH-terminal region may be, in part, the basis for the variable specific activities aldolases exhibit toward their substrates.

Abstract
A sugar phosphomonoester, myo-inositol hexakisphosphate (phytic acid), has been identified as a major phosphorylated metabolite in Dictyostelium discoideum amoeba. Its intracellular concentration was estimated to be 0.7 mM. The identification was made in perchloric acid extracts on the basis of 31P-NMR chemical shift values and their variations with pH, by addition of authentic compound and by hydrolysis with wheat phytase. Perchloric acid extracts were prepared so as to avoid losses of insoluble salts of polyphosphorylated compounds with divalent cations. The glycolytic intermediate, 3-phosphoglycerate accumulated intracellularly in amoebae incubated in the presence of fluoride. The pH sensitive NMR signal of 3-phosphoglycerate was used to monitor cytosolic pH and a value of pH 7.4 was found in aerobic Dictyostelium amoebae.

Abstract
Avian red blood cells contain a millimolar amount of inositol polyphosphate which plays a role as an allosteric effector of hemoglobin. We confirmed the structure of this substance by NMR techniques as purely myo-inositol 1,3,4,5,6-pentakisphosphate. Based on present knowledge this effector is synthesized from inositol trisphosphate by successive phosphorylation. In a search for biosynthetic and degradative intermediates of inositol pentakisphosphate we found only one inositol tetrakisphosphate isomer. Its structure was unambiguously assigned by proton, 13C- and 31P-NMR to myo-inositol 1,4,5,6-tetrakisphosphate. As in mammalian cells the major inositol tetrakisphosphate isomer is myo-inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate, there seem to be differences between avian red blood cells and mammalian cells in the routes of inositol polyphosphate formation and/or degradation.
