title: Effect of acidosis on PTH-dependent renal adenylate cyclase in phosphorus deprivation: role of G proteins.
abstract: These studies examine the regulation of adenylate cyclase in renal cortical membranes from phosphate-deprived and phosphate-deprived acidotic dogs. Enzyme stimulation by parathyroid hormone (PTH) was decreased in phosphate deprivation [Vmax 1,578 +/- 169 vs. 2,581 +/- 219 pmol adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP).mg protein-1 x 30 min-1 in controls, P less than 0.01]. Metabolic acidosis further decreased PTH-stimulated activity. Membranes from phosphate-deprived dogs showed a decrease in Gs alpha-content by cholera toxin-dependent ADP-ribosylation (174 +/- 18 arbitrary units vs. 266.4 +/- 13.6 in controls, P less than 0.01). Metabolic acidosis further decreased Gs alpha-content, P less than 0.01. Gi content by pertussis-dependent ADP-ribosylation was also lower in phosphate-deprived and phosphate-deprived acidotic animals. Gs function was examined by its property to protect the catalytic unit from inactivation by N-ethylmaleimide when preincubated with GTP gamma S. In controls, protection of inactivation was 80% of the maximal activity, whereas in phosphate deprivation protection was less than 50%. In conclusion, metabolic acidosis enhances adenylate cyclase resistance to PTH in phosphate deprivation. These alterations are associated with a decrease in the content and function of Gs alpha, suggesting a role of Gs in the renal adaptation to phosphate depletion and acidosis.
