Detergent-induced distinctions between fluoride- and vanadate-stimulated adenylate cyclases and their responses to guanine nucleotides.
The influence of detergents on fluoride- and vanadate-stimulated adenylate cyclases was investigated with enzyme from liver and adipocyte plasma membranes. Stimulation of the adipocyte cyclase by Na3VO4 was maximal (sixfold) at 3 mM, was not additive with fluoride stimulation, and was readily reversed by washing of the membranes. Vanadate stimulation of the hepatic cyclase was specifically blocked by catechol, which had no effect on basal activity or on fluoride- or glucagon-stimulated activities. The hepatic enzyme, stimulated by fluoride ion, guanyl-5'-yl-(beta,gamma-imino)diphosphate (GPP(NH)P), or GPP(NH)P and glucagon, was inhibited by vanadate with 50% inhibition seen with 2 to 6 mM vanadate. The fluoride-activated adipocyte adenylate cyclase was inhibited by guanosine 5'-O-(3-thio-triphosphate) (GTP gamma S) more potently than by GPP(NH)P, with 50% inhibition being seen with 10 nM GTP gamma S or 100 nM GPP(NH)P. These nucleotides also inhibited the vanadate-stimulated enzyme, but with one-third the potency seen with the fluoride-activated cyclase. Dispersion of the adipocyte cyclase by Lubrol-PX into a 30,000g supernatant fraction caused no change in activation of the enzyme by fluoride, but reduced vanadate-stimulated activity 80%. By comparison, this treatment enhanced stimulation by GPP(NH)P twofold and by GTP gamma S threefold. More importantly, perhaps, the treatment with detergent blocked inhibition of the basal enzyme by GTP, blocked inhibition of fluoride- and vanadate-stimulated cyclases by GTP, GPP(NH)P, or GTP gamma S, and rendered vanadate-stimulated activity sensitive to enhancement by guanine nucleotides. The data indicate differences in the actions of vanadate and fluoride, made evident by the influence of guanine nucleotides and detergent treatment. The observations would be consistent with the idea that the effects of vandate may be due to the formation of GDP X V on the enzyme. The data strongly suggest that treatment of adenylate cyclase with Lubrol-PX causes a functional blockade in the guanine nucleotide-dependent inhibitory regulation (mediated by Ni), thereby allowing activation by the stimulatory guanine nucleotide-dependent regulatory component (Ns).
