Abstract
This review traces the historical origins and conceptual developments leading to the current state of knowledge of the three superfamilies of protein Ser/Thr phosphatases. 'PR enzyme' was identified as an enzyme that inactivates glycogen phosphorylase, although it took 10 years before this ugly duckling was recognized for its true identity as a protein Ser/Thr phosphatase. Ethanol denaturation for purification in the 1970s yielded a phosphatase that exhibited broad specificity, which was resolved into type-1 and type-2 phosphatases in the 1980s. More recent developments show that regulation and specificity are achieved through assembly of multisubunit holoenzymes, transient phosphorylation and the action of inhibitor proteins. Still not widely appreciated, there are hundreds of discrete protein Ser/Thr phosphatases available to counteract protein kinases, offering potential therapeutic targets. Signalling networks and modelling schemes need to incorporate the full gamut of protein Ser/Thr phosphatases and their interconnections.

Abstract
Visceral smooth muscle cells (VSMC) play an essential role, through changes in their contraction-relaxation cycle, in the maintenance of homeostasis in biological systems. The features of these cells differ markedly by tissue and by species; moreover, there are often regional differences within a given tissue. The biophysical features used to investigate ion channels in VSMC have progressed from the original extracellular recording methods (large electrode, single or double sucrose gap methods), to the intracellular (microelectrode) recording method, and then to methods for recording from membrane fractions (patch-clamp, including cell-attached patch-clamp, methods). Remarkable advances are now being made thanks to the application of these more modern biophysical procedures and to the development of techniques in molecular biology. Even so, we still have much to learn about the physiological features of these channels and about their contribution to the activity of both cell and tissue. In this review, we take a detailed look at ion channels in VSMC and at receptor-operated ion channels in particular; we look at their interaction with the contraction-relaxation cycle in individual VSMC and especially at the way in which their activity is related to Ca2+ movements and Ca2+ homeostasis in the cell. In sections II and III, we discuss research findings mainly derived from the use of the microelectrode, although we also introduce work done using the patch-clamp procedure. These sections cover work on the electrical activity of VSMC membranes (sect. II) and on neuromuscular transmission (sect. III). In sections IV and V, we discuss work done, using the patch-clamp procedure, on individual ion channels (Na+, Ca2+, K+, and Cl-; sect. IV) and on various types of receptor-operated ion channels (with or without coupled GTP-binding proteins and voltage dependent and independent; sect. V). In sect. VI, we look at work done on the role of Ca2+ in VSMC using the patch-clamp procedure, biochemical procedures, measurements of Ca2+ transients, and Ca2+ sensitivity of contractile proteins of VSMC. We discuss the way in which Ca2+ mobilization occurs after membrane activation (Ca2+ influx and efflux through the surface membrane, Ca2+ release from and uptake into the sarcoplasmic reticulum, and dynamic changes in Ca2+ within the cytosol). In this article, we make only limited reference to vascular smooth muscle research, since we reviewed the features of ion channels in vascular tissues only recently.

Abstract
Reversible protein phosphorylation is a fundamental mechanism by which many biological functions are regulated. Achievement of such control requires the coordinated action of the interconverting enzymes, the protein kinases and protein phosphatases. By comparison with protein kinases, a limited number of protein phosphatase catalytic subunits are present in the cell, which raises the question of how such a small number of dephosphorylating enzymes can counterbalance the action of the more numerous protein kinases. In mammalian cells, four major classes of Ser/Thr-specific phosphatase catalytic subunits have been identified, comprising two distinct gene families. The high degree of homology among members of the same family, PP1, PP2A and PP2B, and the high degree of evolutionary conservation between organisms as divergent as mammals and yeast, implies that these enzymes are involved in fundamental cell functions. Type 1 enzymes appear to acquire specificity by association with targeting regulatory subunits which direct the enzymes to specific cellular compartments, confer substrate specificity and control enzyme activity. In spite of the progress made in determining the structure of the PP2A subunits, very little is known about the control of this activity and about substrate selection. Recent studies have unravelled a significant number of regulatory subunits. The potential existence of five distinct B or B-related polypeptides, some of which are present in multiple isoforms, two A and two C subunit isoforms, raises the possibility that a combinatorial association could generate a large number of specific PP2A forms with different substrate specificity and/or cellular localization. Moreover, biochemical, biological and genetic studies all concur in suggesting that the regulatory subunits may play an important role in determining the properties of the Ser/Thr protein phosphatases and hence their physiological functions.

Abstract
Purified preparations of a protamine protein kinase from bovine kidney cytosol [Damuni, Amick & Sneed (1989) J. Biol. Chem. 264, 6412-6416] were inactivated after incubation with near-homogeneous preparations of protein phosphatase 2A1 and protein phosphatase 2A2. These protein phosphatase 2A-mediated inactivations of the protamine kinase were unaffected by highly purified preparations of inhibitor 2, but were prevented when the incubations were performed in the presence of 100 nM microcystin-LR, 100 nM okadaic acid or 0.2 mM-ATP. By contrast, highly purified preparations of protein phosphatase 2B, protein phosphatase 2C, the catalytic subunit of protein phosphatase 1, and two forms of a protein tyrosine phosphatase, designated PTPase 1B and T-cell PTPase, had little effect, if any, on protamine kinase activity. Purified preparations of the protamine kinase did not react with anti-phosphotyrosine antibodies, as determined by Western blotting and immunoprecipitation analysis. The results indicate that protein phosphatase 2A is a specific protamine-kinase-inactivating phosphatase.

Abstract
About an eightfold increase in protamine kinase activity was detected following extraction of highly purified microsomes from bovine kidney with 1% Triton X-100. Relative to the soluble fraction, the microsomes contained about 30% protamine kinase activity. The microsomal protamine kinase was purified to apparent homogeneity. The purified enzyme exhibited an apparent M(r) approximately 45,000 as estimated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and by gel permeation chromatography on Sephacryl S-200. Relative to protamine, the purified kinase exhibited about 100% activity with the synthetic peptide RRLSSLRA and about 5, 8, and less than 0.1% activity with casein, histone H2B, and histone H1, respectively. The purified kinase phosphorylated several 40 S ribosome polypeptides. One of these polypeptides was identified as ribosomal protein S6 by N-terminal sequencing. About 2.5 mol of phosphoryl groups was incorporated per mole of ribosomal protein S6 following incubation of the 40 S ribosomes with the purified kinase. Following incubation with protein phosphatase 2A2, purified preparations of the protamine kinase were inactivated. These properties were identical to those of purified preparations of a protamine kinase from extracts of bovine kidney cytosol (Z. Damuni, G.D. Amick, and T.R. Sneed, 1989, J. Biol. Chem. 264, 6412-6418). Near identical peptide patterns were obtained following incubation of purified preparations of the microsomal and cytosolic protamine kinases with Staphylococcus aureus V8 proteinase. The results indicate that a form of the cytosolic protamine kinase is present in microsomes.

Abstract
Type 1 protein phosphatases (PP-1) comprise a group of widely distributed enzymes that specifically dephosphorylate serine and threonine residues of certain phosphoproteins. They all contain an isoform of the same catalytic subunit, which has an extremely conserved primary structure. One of the properties of PP-1 that allows one to distinguish them from other serine/threonine protein phosphatases is their sensitivity to inhibition by two proteins, termed inhibitor 1 and inhibitor 2, or modulator. The latter protein can also form a 1:1 complex with the catalytic subunit that slowly inactivates upon incubation. This complex is reactivated in vitro by incubation with MgATP and protein kinase FA/GSK-3. In the cell the type 1 catalytic subunit is associated with noncatalytic subunits that determine the activity, the substrate specificity, and the subcellular location of the phosphatase. PP-1 plays an essential role in glycogen metabolism, calcium transport, muscle contraction, intracellular transport, protein synthesis, and cell division. The activity of PP-1 is regulated by hormones like insulin, glucagon, alpha- and beta-adrenergic agonists, glucocorticoids, and thyroid hormones.

Abstract
Protein kinase C (PKC) is routinely assayed, after it is partially purified over DEAE-cellulose chromatography to eliminate any interfering protein kinases and phosphatases, by measuring the transfer of gamma-phosphate of [gamma-32P]ATP to H1 histone. Recently, it has been shown that a synthetic peptide, comprising residues 4-14 of myelin basic protein (MBP4-14), is a very selective PKC substrate which is not phosphorylated effectively by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, casein kinase I and II, Ca2+/calmodulin dependent protein kinase II or phosphorylase kinase [Yasuda, I., Kishimoto, A., Tanaka, S-I., Tominaga, M., Sakurai, A. and Nishizuka, Y. (1990) BBRC 166, 1220-1227]. We report here that once MBP4-14 is phosphorylated, it is not dephosphorylated by okadaic acid-sensitive phosphatases (protein phosphatases 1, 2A and 3) or other protein phosphatases such as calcineurin and/or PP 2C present in hippocampal homogenates. Therefore, MBP4-14 can be used for PKC assay in crude extracts of neural tissue.

Abstract
Protein phosphatase 2A1 was purified from rat skeletal muscle and used to produce antisera to the three subunits of the holoenzyme. Affinity purified antibodies specific for the subunits of the phosphatase enzyme were found to recognize the type 2A1 and 2A2 phosphatase from rat skeletal muscle, heart, liver, brain and erythrocytes and were used to investigate the effects of diabetes on the levels of this enzyme in liver and heart. Phosphorylase phosphatase assays coupled with immunoblot analysis of fractionated rat liver and heart cytosol from normal and diabetic animals show no apparent differences in the quantity or activity of these enzymes following the induction of alloxan diabetes. When considering these results and the normal physiological concentrations of known effectors of these enzymes, it is likely that protein phosphatase 2A1 and 2A2 are not responsible for the dephosphorylation of phosphorylase a under physiological conditions.

Abstract
In the course of investigating the neoplastic alterations of protein phosphatases, the particulate fractions of rat liver and AH-13, a strain of rat ascites hepatoma, were chromatographed on DEAE-cellulose and assayed for protein phosphatase using glycogen synthase D and phosphorylase a as substrates. The synthase phosphatase activity of rapidly growing AH-13 was due almost entirely to a divalent cation-inhibited protein phosphatase, tentatively designated phosphatase N, the level of which was elevated remarkably in the hepatoma as compared with liver. Other hepatomas including primary hepatoma induced with 3'-methyl-4-dimethylaminoazobenzene also exhibited high levels of this phosphatase. Phosphatase N exhibited Mr = 49,000 (gel filtration) and has been partially purified with little alteration in properties. Partially purified phosphatase N was inhibited by divalent cations, rabbit skeletal muscle polypeptide inhibitor-2 and heparin, and released the catalytic subunit of type-1 protein phosphatase upon tryptic digestion. It is therefore apparent that phosphatase N is a type-1 protein phosphatase. There is some evidence to suggest that the high levels of phosphatase N in neoplastic cells are due primarily to enhanced synthesis of its non-catalytic (regulatory) subunit.

Abstract
Incubation of highly purified preparations of the bovine kidney cytosolic protamine kinase in the presence of near homogeneous preparations of the catalytic subunit of protein phosphatase 2A (PrP2Ac) from bovine kidney resulted in time-dependent inactivation of the protamine kinase. By contrast, incubation of bovine kidney cytosolic casein kinase II with PrP2Ac had no effect on the activity of this casein kinase II. In the presence of 10 mM sodium fluoride, 10 mM inorganic orthophosphate, 1 mM pyrophosphate or 0.1 mM ATP, the inactivation of the protamine kinase by PrP2Ac was completely inhibited. Half-maximal inhibition by ATP occurred at about 20 microM. The rate of inactivation of the protamine kinase by PrP2Ac was unaffected by Mg2+, Mn2+, Ca2+, EDTA or EGTA at 1 mM. The results strongly indicate that the activity of the cytosolic protamine kinase is regulated by phosphorylation/dephosphorylation.

Abstract
1. Livers from gsd/gsd rats, which do not express phosphorylase kinase activity, also contain much less particulate type-1 protein phosphatases. In comparison with normal Wistar rats, the glycogen/microsomal fraction contained 75% less glycogen-synthase phosphatase and 60% less phosphorylase phosphatase activity. This was largely due to a lower amount of the type-1 catalytic subunit in the particulate fraction. In the cytosol, the synthase phosphatase activity was also 50% lower, but the phosphorylase phosphatase activity was equal. 2. Both Wistar rats and gsd/gsd rats responded to an intravenous injection of insulin plus glucose with an acute increase (by 30-40%) in the phosphorylase phosphatase activity in the liver cytosol. In contrast, administration of glucagon or vasopressin provoked a rapid fall (by about 25%) in the cytosolic phosphorylase phosphatase activity in Wistar rats, but no change occurred in gsd/gsd rats. 3. Phosphorylase kinase was partially purified from liver and subsequently activated. Addition of a physiological amount of the activated enzyme to a liver cytosol from Wistar rats decreased the V of the phosphorylase phosphatase reaction by half, whereas the non-activated kinase had no effect. The kinase preparations did not change the activity of glycogen-synthase phosphatase, which does not respond to glucagon or vasopressin. Furthermore, the phosphorylase phosphatase activity was not affected by addition of physiological concentrations of homogeneous phosphorylase kinase from skeletal muscle (activated or non-activated). 4. It appears therefore that phosphorylase kinase plays an essential role in the transduction of the effect of glucagon and vasopressin to phosphorylase phosphatase. However, this inhibitory effect either is specific for the hepatic phosphorylase kinase, or is mediated by an unidentified protein that is a specific substrate of phosphorylase kinase.

Abstract
Polyclonal antibodies to the catalytic subunit of protein phosphatase 2A (PrP-2A) from bovine brain were prepared by immunizing rabbits and then purified by antigen-affinity column chromatography. The purified antibodies recognized only PrP-2A among proteins examined, including calcineurin and PrP-1. The antibodies cross-reacted only with a protein in the crude homogenate from rat brain, which comigrated with the catalytic subunit of PrP-2A on SDS-PAGE. The antibodies completely inhibited the activity of PrP-2A, and immunoprecipitated the purified enzyme. Immunoblot analysis demonstrates that, among the subcellular fractions from rat brain, the cytosol fraction and the synaptosomal cytosol fraction show high immunoreactivities, and that any of examined regions of rat brain shows immunoreactivity more or less, in which the caudatoputamen was highest. Immunohistochemical studies demonstrate that the enzyme is distributed widely in various regions of rat brain and that the immunoreactivity is localized mainly in neurons. In general, immunostaining of neurons was strong in neurites as well as somata. It was noted that intracerebellar nuclei were strongly stained in both neuronal somata and dendrites. Amygdaloid complex, thalamus, neocortex, hippocampal formation, and caudatoputamen were moderately stained.

Abstract
A protein phosphatase assay, selective for protein phosphatase 2A, has been developed. Bovine histone H1 phosphorylated by protein kinase C and [gamma-32P]ATP, designated H1(C), was tested as the substrate for various preparations of protein phosphatases 1 and 2A. The phosphatase 2A preparations were 10-60-times more active with H1(C) as the substrate when compared to phosphorylase a. The phosphatase 1 enzymes showed very little dephosphorylation of the H1(C) substrate, the activity being less than 5% of the phosphorylase phosphatase activity. This preference and selectivity was demonstrated for purified phosphatase preparations in addition to fresh tissue extracts. The assay provides a rapid, simple assay for the routine analysis of phosphatase 2A in the presence of phosphatase 1, without the use of heat-stable inhibitor proteins.

Abstract
Protein phosphatase C was purified 140-fold from bovine brain with 8% yield using histone H1 phosphorylated by the catalytic subunit of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (cyclic AMP-kinase). Brain protein phosphatase C was considered to consist of 10 and 90%, respectively, of the catalytic subunits of protein phosphatases 1 and 2A on the basis of the effects of ATP and inhibitor-2. Protein phosphatase C dephosphorylated microtubule-associated protein 2 (MAP2), tau factor, and tubulin phosphorylated by a multifunctional Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase (calmodulin-kinase) and the catalytic subunit of cyclic AMP-kinase. The properties of dephosphorylation of MAP2, tau factor, and tubulin were compared. The Km values were in the ranges of 1.6-2.7 microM for MAP2 and tau factor. The Km value for tubulin decreased from 25 to 10-12.5 microM in the presence of 1.0 mM Mn2+. No difference in kinetic properties of dephosphorylation was observed between the substrates phosphorylated by the two kinases. Protein phosphatase C did not dephosphorylate the native tubulin, but universally dephosphorylated tubulin phosphorylated by the two kinases. The holoenzyme of protein phosphatase 2A from porcine brain could also dephosphorylate MAP2, tau factor, and tubulin phosphorylated by the two kinases. The phosphorylation of MAP2 and tau factor by calmodulin-kinase separately induced the inhibition of microtubule assembly, and the dephosphorylation by protein phosphatase C removed its inhibitory effect. These data suggest that brain protein phosphatases 1 and 2A are involved in the switch-off mechanism of both Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent and cyclic AMP-dependent regulation of microtubule formation.

Abstract
A 56,000-dalton protein with inherent phosphoprotein phosphatase activity was isolated from porcine brain capillaries. The enzyme is not activated by divalent metal ions but strongly inhibited by zinc ions. As phosphatase inhibitor 2 readily inhibits the enzymatic activity, the protein can be classified as a type I phosphatase. The protein is stable toward protease treatment. Limited digestion with trypsin does not convert the enzyme into an active form of lower molecular weight. The physical and enzymatical properties of the phosphatase exhibit considerable similarities to those of another 56,000-dalton phosphatase derived from rabbit reticulocytes.

Abstract
The multifunctional calmodulin-dependent protein kinase (calmodulin-kinase) from rat brain was autophosphorylated in a Ca2+- and calmodulin-dependent manner. The activity of the autophosphorylated enzyme was independent of Ca2+ and calmodulin. Calmodulin-kinase was dephosphorylated by protein phosphatase C from bovine brain, which is the catalytic subunits of protein phosphatases 1 and 2A. The holoenzyme of protein phosphatase 2A was also involved in the dephosphorylation of the enzyme. The autophosphorylated sites of calmodulin-kinase were universally dephosphorylated by protein phosphatase C. Calmodulin-kinase was inactivated and reactivated by autophosphorylation and dephosphorylation, respectively. Furthermore, the regulation of calmodulin-kinase by autophosphorylation and dephosphorylation was observed using calmodulin-kinase from canine heart. These results suggest that the activity of calmodulin-kinase is regulated by autophosphorylation and dephosphorylation, and that the regulation is the universal phenomenon for many other calmodulin-kinases in various tissues.

Abstract
Two phosphorylase phosphatase activities (I and III) have been purified from rabbit liver, with respective molecular weights of 117,000 and 230,000. Phosphatase III contained three different subunits of molecular weights 35,000, 67,000 and 80,000. Phosphatase I although majoritary in the preparation, was not homogeneous. Both phosphatases were dissociated by 2-mercaptoethanol treatment, releasing a catalytic subunit with a molecular weight of about 35,000. Phosphatases I and III activities responded very differently to incubation with trypsin and to ethanol precipitation. Phosphatase III was much more sensitive to inactivation by several ions and ATP than phosphatase I. On the basis of the obtained data, phosphatase I can be classified as a type-1 phosphatase and phosphatase III as a type-1 phosphatase.

Abstract
The predominant form of phosphorylase phosphatase activity in porcine renal cortical extracts was a polycation-stimulated protein phosphatase. This activity was present in extracts in a high-molecular-weight form which could be converted to a free catalytic subunit by treatment with ethanol, urea, or freezing and thawing in the presence of beta-mercaptoethanol. The catalytic subunit of the polycation-stimulated phosphatase was purified by chromatography on DEAE-Sephacel, heparin-Sepharose, and Sephadex G-75. The phosphatase appeared to be homogeneous on SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The enzyme had an apparent Mr of 35 000 on gel filtration and SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The purified phosphatase could be stimulated by histone H1, protamine, poly(D-lysine), poly(L-lysine) or polybrene utilizing phosphorylase a as the substrate. It preferentially dephosphorylated the alpha-subunit of phosphorylase kinase. The phosphatase was highly sensitive to inhibition by ATP. These results suggest that the renal polycation-stimulated phosphatase catalytic subunit is very similar to or identical with the skeletal muscle phosphatase form which has been previously designated phosphatase-2Ac.

Abstract
Although activation and conversion of the inactive/latent high-molecular-weight phosphatases to the Mr = approximately 35,000 catalytic subunits can be achieved by several procedures including freezing/thawing in 0.2 M 2-mercaptoethanol and digestion by proteolytic enzymes, strong indications have been obtained that they are distinct stimulating processes. For instance, when pig brain extracts were treated with trypsin, the type-1 phosphatase could be stimulated approximately 40 fold while the type-2 phosphatase was not slightly modified. Conversely, when the same crude extracts were treated with freezing/thawing in 2-mercaptoethanol, the type-2 phosphatase could be stimulated approximately 10 fold but surprisingly the type-1 species was not slightly influenced. It is suggested that hormonal study on the activity changes of the type-1 and type-2 phosphatase in a crude extract can be made possible by the selective using of these two triggers.

Abstract
Phosphoprotein phosphatases regulate the biological activities of proteins through their involvement in cyclic phosphorylation/dephosphorylation cascades. A variety of multimeric phosphatases have been isolated and grouped into several classes, termed type 1 and types 2A, 2B, and 2C. To elucidate the relationship between the different phosphoprotein phosphatases, highly purified enzymes from soil amoebae, turkey gizzards, bovine heart and brain, and rabbit skeletal muscle and reticulocytes were tested for immunological antigenic relatedness. Two heterologous antibody preparations were employed for this purpose. One was made against an Acanthamoeba type 2A phosphatase and the other was made to bovine brain phosphatase type 2B (calcineurin, holoenzyme). Specific subunit cross-reactivity was examined by protein blot ("Western") analysis. The antibody to the type 2A phosphatase reacted with the catalytic subunits of every type 2 enzyme tested, including both the catalytic and Ca2+-binding subunits of the Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent type 2B phosphatase (calcineurin), bovine cardiac type 2A phosphatase, and turkey gizzard smooth muscle phosphatase-1 (type 2A1). It did not react with any type 1 phosphatase (catalytic subunit or ATP-Mg-dependent). The antigenic relatedness of calcineurin and the bovine cardiac type 2A phosphatase (Mr 38,000) was demonstrated further by protein blot analysis showing that the anti-calcineurin antibody cross-reacted with both enzymes. The mutual cross-reactivity poses an intriguing problem because these enzymes are so different in their molecular structures and modes of regulation. The degree of evolutionary conservation exhibited by the antigenic cross-reactivity of the type 2 enzymes from a broad range of species and tissues suggests a strong selective pressure on maintaining one or more features of these important regulatory enzymes.

Abstract
The effects of polyamines on the oligomeric forms of protein phosphatase-1 (1G), protein phosphatase-2A (2A0, 2A1 and 2A2) and their free catalytic subunits (1C and 2AC) has been studied using homogeneous enzymes isolated from rabbit skeletal muscle. Spermine increased the activity of protein phosphatase-2A towards eight of nine substrates tested. Half-maximal activation was observed at 0.2 mM with optimal effects at 1-2 mM. Above 2 mM, spermine became inhibitory. The most impressive activation of protein phosphatase-2A was obtained with glycogen synthase, especially when phosphorylated at sites-3 (8-15-fold with protein phosphatase-2A1) and phenylalanine hydroxylase (6-7-fold with protein phosphatase-2A1) as substrates. Activation of protein phosphatases 2A0, 2A1 and 2A2 was greater than that observed with 2AC. Spermine was a more potent activator than spermidine, while putrescine had only a small effect. Qualitatively similar results were obtained with five other substrates, although maximal activation was much less (1.3-3-fold with protein phosphatase-2A1). The rate of dephosphorylation of glycogen phosphorylase was decreased by spermine, inhibition being more pronounced with protein phosphatase-2AC than with 2A0, 2A1 and 2A2. Spermine (I50 = 0.1 mM with protein phosphatase-2AC) was a more potent inhibitor than spermidine (I50 = 0.9 mM) or putrescine (I50 = 8 mM). Partially purified preparations of protein phosphatases-2A0, 2A1 and 2A2 from from rat liver were affected by spermine in a similar manner to the homogeneous enzymes from rabbit skeletal muscle. Spermine did not activate protein phosphatase-1 to the same extent as protein phosphatase-2A. Greatest stimulation (2.5-fold) was again observed with glycogen synthase labelled in sites-3, with half-maximal activation at 0.2 mM and optimal effects at 1-2 mM spermine. Spermine was a much more effective stimulator than spermidine, while putrescine was ineffective. Very similar results were obtained with protein phosphatases 1G and 1C. With four other substrates maximal activation by spermine was less than 1.5-fold, while the dephosphorylation of glycogen synthase (labelled in site-2), phosphorylase kinase, pyruvate kinase and glycogen phosphorylase were inhibited. Spermine (I50 = 0.04 mM) was a more potent inhibitor of the dephosphorylation of glycogen phosphorylase than spermidine (I50 = 0.9 mM) or putrescine (I50 = 9 mM).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract
Soluble preparations from mycelium of the dimorphic fungus Mucor rouxii contained detectable amounts of phosphoprotein phosphatase activity. This cytosolic phosphatase activity exhibited a molecular weight below 80,000 and could be resolved into two different forms (enzymes I and II) by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose followed by gel filtration on Sephacryl S-300. Enzyme I (Mr 64,000) was mainly a histone phosphatase activity, absolutely dependent on divalent cations, with a K0.5 for MnCl2 of 2mM. Enzyme II (Mr 40,000) was active with histone and phosphorylase. Its activity was independent or slightly inhibited by Mn2+. This enzyme was strongly inhibited by 50 mM NaF or 1 mM ATP. When partially purified enzymes I and II were separately treated with ethanol, the catalytic properties of enzyme II were apparently not affected while those of enzyme I were drastically changed. The activity with histone, which was originally dependent on Mn2+, became independent or slightly inhibited by the cation. The treatment was accompanied by a notable increase in phosphorylase phosphatase activity which was strongly inhibited by Mn2+. Treated enzyme I eluted from DEAE-cellulose and Sephacryl S-300 columns at a position similar to that of enzyme II.

Abstract
A histone H1-stimulated protein phosphatase isolated from rabbit skeletal muscle dephosphorylated [32P]phosphorylase kinase. The rate of dephosphorylation was markedly increased by 5-50 micrograms histone H1/ml. Only the alpha and alpha' subunits were dephosphorylated in the absence or presence of histone H1. This is consistent with previous results suggesting that the H1-stimulated phosphatase is a type-2 protein phosphatase. The present studies suggest that the histone H1-stimulation is the result of a direct interaction of the histone with the phosphatase.

Abstract
Three forms of protein phosphatase-1 were isolated from rabbit skeletal muscle that had Mr values of 37 000, 34 000 and 33 000 determined by sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) gel electrophoresis. Each species dephosphorylated the beta-subunit of phosphorylase kinase very much faster than the alpha-subunit, was inhibited by inhibitors 1 and 2 with equal potency, and was converted to a form dependent on glycogen synthase kinase-3 and Mg-ATP for activity by incubation with inhibitor-2. Digestion with cyanogen bromide or Staphylococcus aureus proteinase followed by SDS gel electrophoresis showed a very similar pattern of cleavage products for all three forms. The Mr-37 000 and Mr-34 000 species were converted to the Mr-33 000 form by incubation with chymotrypsin. It is concluded that the Mr-33 000 and Mr-34 000 forms are derived from the Mr-37 000 component by limited proteolysis. Conversion of the Mr-37 000 to the Mr-33 000 form was accompanied by a two-fold increase in activity, indicating that an Mr-4000 fragment at one end of the polypeptide is an inhibitory domain that decreases enzyme activity. The catalytic subunit of protein phosphatase 2A from rabbit skeletal muscle had an Mr of 36 000 determined by SDS gel electrophoresis and its specific activity (3 kU/mg) was much lower than that of the Mr-37 000 (15-20 kU/mg) or Mr-33/34 000 (40-50 kU/mg) forms of protein phosphatase-1. It dephosphorylated the alpha-subunit of phosphorylase kinase 4-5-fold faster than the beta-subunit, was unaffected by inhibitor-1 or inhibitor-2, and preincubation with the latter protein did not result in the production of a glycogen synthase kinase-3 and Mg-ATP-dependent form of the enzyme. Digestion with chymotrypsin did not alter the electrophoretic mobility of protein phosphatase 2A under conditions that caused quantitative conversion of the Mr-37 000 form of protein phosphatase-1 to the Mr-33 000 species. Digestion with cyanogen bromide or S. aureus proteinase, followed by SDS gel electrophoresis, showed a quite different pattern of cleavage products to those observed with protein phosphatase 1. Antibody to protein phosphatase-2A raised in sheep did not cross-react with any of the forms of protein phosphatase-1, as judged by immunoelectrophoretic and immunotitration experiments. It is concluded that protein phosphatase-1 and protein phosphatase-2A are distinct gene products.

Abstract
A major rabbit skeletal muscle phosphorylase phosphatase activity which is markedly stimulated by histone H1 has been resolved from inhibitor-sensitive phosphorylase phosphatase (type-1 phosphatase), glycogen synthase kinase 3-activated phosphatase, phosphatase heat-stable inhibitor proteins, and alkaline phosphatase activity by various purification techniques. Evidence is presented that this phosphatase is a high-molecular weight form of a type-2 phosphatase. Our data suggest that this phosphatase may be regulated by histone H1, protamine or analogous polycationic compounds.

Abstract
The administration of glucocorticoids to mice caused within 3 h an inactivation of glycogen phosphorylase and activation of glycogen synthase in their livers. In a Sephadex filtrate of liver extract, as well as in a purified glycogen fraction obtained from treated mice, but not in the same preparations obtained from control mice, glycogen synthase was activated without previous inactivation of phosphorylase. The initial rate of synthase activation in a Sephadex filtrate was proportional to the rate of glycogen synthesis in vivo in the same animal. When the glycogen fraction was isolated in the presence of soluble starch, it could be separated from phosphorylase, phosphorylase phosphatase and synthase phosphatase. When added to a control Sephadex filtrate, this purified glycogen fraction obtained from prednisolone-treated mice relieved synthase phosphatase from inhibition by phosphorylase a, indicating that it contained a transferable 'deinhibiting factor'. This deinhibiting factor appears to be a protein and was further purified by alkyl-Sepharose or DEAE-cellulose chromatography. Another modification introduced by treatment with prednisolone was that phosphorylase phosphatase was 1.5-2-fold more active than in the liver of control mice. This property however did not correlate with the rate of glycogen synthesis in vivo. Administration of actinomycin D prevented the expression of the glucocorticoid effects on the rate of glycogen synthesis in vivo and on the protein phosphatases in vitro. The deinhibition of synthase phosphatase was also observed in isolated rat hepatocytes incubated in the presence of glucocorticoids, but in these preparations synthase was not activated.

Abstract
Previous studies indicated that the species of type 1 and type 2 protein phosphatases (PP-1, PP-2) in rabbit reticulocytes are similar to those of rabbit skeletal muscle and rabbit liver. Reticulocyte PP-1 was found to be selectively inhibited by the heat stable protein phosphatase inhibitor-2 (I-2) from rabbit skeletal muscle. Of interest was the observation that muscle I-2 appeared to regulate protein synthesis in reticulocyte lysates by inhibiting an eIF-2 alpha phosphatase with type 1 properties. In this study we have characterized reticulocyte inhibitor-2 (I-2) and find that its properties are similar to those of skeletal muscle I-2. (i) Both I-2 species are stable to boiling and to acid treatment, and have similar chromatographic profiles on DEAE-cellulose and on Blue Sepharose CL-6B.

Abstract
Protein phosphorylation is a principal regulatory mechanism in the control of almost all cellular processes. The nature of the protein phosphatases that participate in these reactions has been a subject of controversy. Four enzymes, termed protein phosphatases 1, 2A, 2B, and 2C, account for virtually all of the phosphatase activity toward phosphoproteins involved in controlling glycogen metabolism, glycolysis, gluconeogenesis, fatty acid synthesis, cholesterol synthesis, and protein synthesis. The properties, physiological roles, and mechanisms for regulating the four protein phosphatases are reviewed.

Abstract
Homogenous preparations of the catalytic subunit of protein phosphatase-1 and inhibitor-2 can be combined to produce an inactive enzyme that consists of a 1:1 complex between these two proteins. This species is indistinguishable from the Mg-ATP-dependent protein phosphatase in that preincubation with glycogen synthase kinase-3 and Mg-ATP is required to generate activity. Activation results from the phosphorylation of inhibitor-2. The molar concentrations of protein phosphatase-1 and inhibitor-2 in rabbit skeletal muscle (0.25-0.5 microM) are similar. Incubation of the reconstituted Mg-ATP-dependent protein phosphatase with chymotrypsin is accompanied by limited proteolysis of inhibitor-2 and the loss of its phosphorylation site(s). This species can be activated by glycogen synthase kinase-3 and Mg-ATP provided that inhibitor-2 is added. This exogenous inhibitor-2 appears to displace the fragments of inhibitor-2 from the enzyme that were generated by chymotryptic digestion. These experiments may explain the report [Yang, S.D., Vandenheede, J.R. and Merlevede, W. (1981) J. Biol. Chem. 256, 10231-10234] that inhibitor-2 can function as an 'activator' as well as an inhibitor of the Mg-ATP-dependent protein phosphatase. Incubation of the catalytic subunit of protein phosphatase-1 with sodium fluoride or sodium pyrophosphate converted the enzyme to an inactive form that could be partially reactivated by manganese ions, but not by glycogen synthase kinase-3 and Mg-ATP. Conversely, the reconstituted Mg-ATP-dependent protein phosphatase could only be activated by glycogen synthase kinase-3 and Mg-ATP, and not by manganese ions. It is concluded that the conversion of protein phosphatase-1 to a manganese-ion dependent form is a quite separate phenomenon from the formation of the Mg-ATP-dependent protein phosphatase. Inhibitor-2 can inactivate protein phosphatase-1 by a second mechanism that is not reversed by preincubation with glycogen synthase kinase-3 and Mg-ATP. This occurs at higher concentrations of inhibitor-2 than those required to form the Mg-ATP-dependent protein phosphatase, and appears to result from the binding of inhibitor-2 to a distinct site on the enzyme.

Abstract
The protein phosphatase activities involved in regulating the major pathways of intermediary metabolism can be explained by only four enzymes which can be conveniently divided into two classes, type-1 and type-2. Type-1 protein phosphatases dephosphorylate the beta-subunit of phosphorylase kinase and are potently inhibited by two thermostable proteins termed inhibitor-1 and inhibitor-2, whereas type-2 protein phosphatases preferentially dephosphorylate the alpha-subunit of phosphorylase kinase and are insensitive to inhibitor-1 and inhibitor-2. The substrate specificities of the four enzymes, namely protein phosphatase-1 (type-1) and protein phosphatases 2A, 2B and 2C (type-2) have been investigated. Eight different protein kinases were used to phosphorylate 13 different substrate proteins on a minimum of 20 different serine and threonine residues. These substrates include proteins involved in the regulation of glycogen metabolism, glycolysis, fatty acid synthesis, cholesterol synthesis, protein synthesis and muscle contraction. The studies demonstrate that protein phosphatase-1 and protein phosphatase 2A have very broad substrate specificities. The major differences, apart from the site specificity for phosphorylase kinase, are the much higher myosin light chain phosphatase and ATP-citrate lyase phosphatase activities of protein phosphatase-2A. Protein phosphatase-2C (an Mg2+-dependent enzyme) also has a broad specificity, but can be distinguished from protein phosphatase-2A by its extremely low phosphorylase phosphatase and histone H1 phosphatase activities, and its slow dephosphorylation of sites (3a + 3b + 3c) on glycogen synthase relative to site-2 of glycogen synthase. It has extremely high hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA (HMG-CoA) reductase phosphatase and HMG-CoA reductase kinase phosphatase activity. Protein phosphatase-2B (a Ca2+-calmodulin-dependent enzyme) is the most specific phosphatase and only dephosphorylated three of the substrates (the alpha-subunit of phosphorylase kinase, inhibitor-1 and myosin light chains) at a significant rate. It is specifically inhibited by the phenathiazine drug, trifluoperazine. Examination of the amino acid sequences around each phosphorylation site does not support the idea that protein phosphatase specificity is determined by the primary structure in the immediate vicinity of the phosphorylation site.
