Abstract
Transferrin receptor protein 1 (TfR1) is an important molecule in anti-cancer therapy. Targeted delivery of such therapeutic compounds improves their cellular uptake and circulation time, thereby enhancing therapeutic efficacy. Drug designing is therefore used to engineer molecules with structures that facilitate specific interactions. However, this process requires a thorough knowledge of all the interactions, including the three-dimensional (3D) and quaternary structures (QS) of the interacting molecules. Since structural information is available for only a part of the full TfR1 sequence, in the present study, we predicted the whole structure of TfR1 using homology modelling, docking, and molecular dynamics simulations. Homology modelling is used to generate 3D structures of TfR1 using MODELLER, I-TASSER, and RaptorX programs. Verify3D and Rampage server evaluated the quality of the resultant models. According to this evaluation, the model built by the RaptorX server and validated by Verify3D (compatibility: 83.82%) had the highest number of residues (95.5%) within the favoured regions of the Ramachandran plot, making it the most reliable 3D protein structure for TfR1 compared with others. The QS of TfR1 was built using HADDOCK and SymmDock docking software, and the results were evaluated by the ligand root mean square deviation (l-RMSD) value computed using the ProFit software. This showed that both HADDOCK and SymmDock gave acceptable results. However, the HADDOCK result was more stable and closest to the native complex structure with disulfide bonds. Therefore, the HADDOCK complex was further refined using both SymmRef and GalaxyRefineComplex until the medium l-RMSD rank was reached. This QS was successfully verified using nanoscale molecular dynamics (NAMD) energy minimization. This model could pave the way for further functional, structural, and therapeutic studies on TfR1.

Abstract
Muscle cells grow by proliferation and protein accumulation. During the initial stages of development the participation of nerves is not always required. Myoblasts and satellite cells proliferate, fusing to form myotubes which further differentiate to muscle fibers. Myotubes and muscle fibers grow by protein accumulation and fusion with other myogenic cells. Muscle fibers finally reach a quasi-steady state which is then maintained for a long period. The mechanism of maintenance is not well understood. However, it is clear that protein metabolism plays a paramount role. The role played by satellite cells in the maintenance of muscle fibers is not known. Growth and maintenance of muscle cells are under the influence of various tissues and substances. Among them are Tf and the motor nerve, the former being the main object of this review and essential for both DNA and protein synthesis. Two sources of Tf have been proposed, i.e., the motor nerve and the tissue fluid. The first proposal is that the nervous trophic influence on muscle cells is mediated by Tf which is released from the nerve terminals. In this model, the sole source of Tf which is donated to muscle cells should be the nerve, and Tf should not be provided for muscle fiber at sites other than the synaptic region; otherwise, denervation atrophy would not occur, since Tf provided from TfR located at another site would cancel the effect of denervation. The second proposal is that Tf is provided from tissue fluid. This implies that an adequate amount of Tf is transferred from serum to tissue fluid; in this case TfR may be distributed over the entire surface of the cells. The trophic effects of the motor neuron have been studied in vivo, but its effects of myoblast proliferation have not been determined. There are few experiments on its effects on myotubes. Most work has been made on muscle fibers, where innervation is absolutely required for their maintenance. Without it, muscle fibers atrophy, although they do not degenerate. In contrast, almost all the work on Tf has been performed in vitro. Its effects on myoblast proliferation and myotube growth and maintenance have been established; myotubes degenerate following Tf removal. But its effects on mature muscle fibers in vivo are not well understood. Muscle fibers possess TfR all over on their cell surface and contain a variety of Fe-binding proteins, such as myoglobin. It is entirely plausible that muscle fibers require an amount of Tf, and that this is provided by TfR scattered on the cell surface.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract
Reticulocytes release small membrane vesicles termed exosomes during their maturation in erythrocytes. The transferrin receptor (TfR) is completely lost from the red cell surface by its segregation in the secreted vesicles where it interacts with the heat shock cognate 70 kDa protein (hsc70). We have now determined a region of the TfR that can potentially interact with hsc70. The peptide P1 (YTRFSLARQV) from the TfR cytosolic domain: (i). binds to hsc70 (ii). with an increased affinity in oxidative conditions, (iii). competes for binding of an unfolded protein to hsc70, and (iv). inhibits the interaction of hsc70 with a recombinant protein corresponding to the cytosolic domain of the receptor. This peptide encompasses the internalization motif (YTRF) of the receptor, and accordingly an affinity column made with the immobilized peptide retains hsc70 and also the AP2 adaptor complex. On the other hand, we show that AP2 is degraded by the proteasome system during reticulocyte maturation and that the presence of the proteasome inhibitor during in vitro red cell maturation inhibits AP2 degradation and specifically decreases TfR secretion via exosomes. Finally, coimmunoprecipitation of Alix with the exosomal TfR, and binding of P1 peptide to the Alix homolog PalA suggest that Alix also interacts with the YTRF motif and contributes to exosomal TfR sorting.

Abstract
Iron homeostasis is primarily maintained through regulation of its transport. This review summarizes recent discoveries in the field of iron transport that have shed light on the molecular mechanisms of dietary iron uptake, pathways for iron efflux to and between peripheral tissues, proteins implicated in organellar transport of iron (particularly the mitochondrion), and novel regulators that have been proposed to control iron assimilation. The transport of both transferrin-bound and nontransferrin-bound iron to peripheral tissues is discussed. Finally, the regulation of iron transport is also considered at the molecular level, with posttranscriptional, transcriptional, and posttranslational control mechanisms being reviewed.

Abstract
The human transferrin receptor (TfR) and its ligand, the serum iron carrier transferrin, serve as a model system for endocytic receptors. Although the complete structure of the receptor's ectodomain and a partial structure of the ligand have been published, conflicting results still exist about the magnitude of equilibrium binding constants, possibly due to different labeling techniques. In the present study, we determined the equilibrium binding constant of purified human TfR and transferrin. The results were compared to those obtained with either iodinated TfR or transferrin. Using an enzyme-linked assay for receptor-ligand interactions based on the published direct calibration ELISA technique, we determined an equilibrium constant of Kd=0.22 nM for the binding of unmodified human Tf to surface-immobilized human TfR. In a reciprocal experiment using soluble receptor and surface-bound transferrin, a similar constant of Kd=0.23 nM was measured. In contrast, covalent labeling of either TfR or transferrin with 125I reduced the affinity 3-5-fold to Kd=0.66 nM and Kd=1.01 nM, respectively. The decrease in affinity upon iodination of transferrin is contrasted by an only 1.9-fold decrease in the association rate constant, suggesting that the iodination affects rather the dissociation than the association kinetics. These results indicate that precautions should be taken when interpreting equilibrium and rate constants determined with covalently labeled components.

Abstract
Iron is vital for almost all living organisms by participating in a wide variety of metabolic processes, including oxygen transport, DNA synthesis, and electron transport. However, iron concentrations in body tissues must be tightly regulated because excessive iron leads to tissue damage, as a result of formation of free radicals. Disorders of iron metabolism are among the most common diseases of humans and encompass a broad spectrum of diseases with diverse clinical manifestations, ranging from anemia to iron overload and, possibly, to neurodegenerative diseases. The molecular understanding of iron regulation in the body is critical in identifying the underlying causes for each disease and in providing proper diagnosis and treatments. Recent advances in genetics, molecular biology and biochemistry of iron metabolism have assisted in elucidating the molecular mechanisms of iron homeostasis. The coordinate control of iron uptake and storage is tightly regulated by the feedback system of iron responsive element-containing gene products and iron regulatory proteins that modulate the expression levels of the genes involved in iron metabolism. Recent identification and characterization of the hemochromatosis protein HFE, the iron importer Nramp2, the iron exporter ferroportin1, and the second transferrin-binding and -transport protein transferrin receptor 2, have demonstrated their important roles in maintaining body's iron homeostasis. Functional studies of these gene products have expanded our knowledge at the molecular level about the pathways of iron metabolism and have provided valuable insight into the defects of iron metabolism disorders. In addition, a variety of animal models have implemented the identification of many genetic defects that lead to abnormal iron homeostasis and have provided crucial clinical information about the pathophysiology of iron disorders. In this review, we discuss the latest progress in studies of iron metabolism and our current understanding of the molecular mechanisms of iron absorption, transport, utilization, and storage. Finally, we will discuss the clinical presentations of iron metabolism disorders, including secondary iron disorders that are either associated with or the result of abnormal iron accumulation.

Abstract
Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) triggers degranulation and oxygen radical release in adherent neutrophils. The p60TNF receptor (p60TNFR) is responsible for proinflammatory signaling, and protein kinase C (PKC) is a candidate for the regulation of p60TNFR. Both TNF-alpha and the PKC-activator phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate triggered phosphorylation of p60TNFR. Receptor phosphorylation was on both serine and threonine but not on tyrosine residues. The PKC-delta isotype is a candidate enzyme for serine phosphorylation of p60TNFR. Staurosporine and the PKC-delta inhibitor rottlerin inhibited TNF-alpha-triggered serine but not threonine phosphorylation. Serine phosphorylation was associated with receptor desensitization, as inhibition of PKC resulted in enhanced degranulation (elastase release). After neutrophil activation, PKC-delta was the only PKC isotype that associated with p60TNFR within the correct time frame for receptor phosphorylation. In vitro, only PKC-delta, but not the alpha-, betaI-, betaII-, or zeta-isotypes, was competent to phosphorylate the receptor, indicating that p60TNFR is a direct substrate for PKC-delta. These findings suggest a selective role for PKC-delta in negative regulation of the p60TNFR and of TNF-alpha-induced signaling.

Abstract
Bloodstream forms of Trypanosoma brucei, the causative agent of sleeping sickness in humans, require transferrin for growth. Uptake of host transferrin is mediated by a heterodimeric glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored receptor. The trypanosomal transferrin receptor is homologous to the N-terminal domain of the variant surface glycoprotein (VSG) and bears no structural similarity with the human transferrin receptor. In this review, the structure, biochemical properties and function of the transferrin receptor of T. brucei are summarized and compared to the transferrin receptor of mammalian cells.

Abstract
The effect of protein kinase inhibitors on transferrin receptor (TR) internalization was examined in HeLa, A431, 3T3-L1 cells, and primary chicken embryo fibroblasts. We show that TR endocytosis is not affected by tyrosine kinase or protein kinase C inhibitors, but is inhibited by one serine/threonine kinase inhibitor, H-89. Inhibition occurred within 15 min, was completely reversible after H-89 withdrawal, and was specific for endocytosis rather than pinocytosis since a TR mutant lacking an internalization signal was not affected. Interestingly, H-89 also inhibited the internalization of a TR chimera containing the major histocompatibility complex class II invariant chain cytoplasmic tail, indicating that the effect was not specific for the TR. Since H-89 inhibits a number of kinases, we employed a permeabilized cell endocytosis assay to further characterize the kinase. In permeabilized 3T3-L1 cells, addition of pseudosubstrate inhibitor peptides of casein kinase II (CKII) blocked TR internalization by more than 50%, whereas pseudosubstrates of cyclic AMP-dependent kinase A, protein kinase C, and casein kinase I had no effect. Furthermore, addition of purified CKII to the cell-free reactions containing CKII pseudosubstrates reversed the endocytosis block, suggesting that CKII or a CKII-like activity is required for constitutive endocytosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The transferrin receptor (TfR) regulates the cellular uptake of serum iron. Although the TfR serves as a model system for endocytosis receptors, neither crystal structure analysis nor electron microscopy has yet revealed the molecular dimensions of the TfR. To derive the first molecular model, we analyzed purified, lipid-reconstituted human TfR by high-resolution electron microscopy. RESULTS A structural model of phospholipid-reconstituted TfR was derived from 72 cryo-electron microscopic images. The TfR dimer consists of a large extracellular globular domain (6.4 x 7.5 x 10.5 nm) separated from the membrane by a thin molecular stalk (2.9 nm). A comparative protein sequence analysis suggests that the stalk corresponds to amino acid residues 89-126. Under phospholipid-reconstitution conditions, the human TfR not only integrates into vesicles, but also forms rosette-like structures called proteoparticles. Scanning transmission electron microscopy revealed an overall diameter of 31.5 nm and a molecular mass of 1669 +/- 26 kDa for the proteoparticles, corresponding to nine TfR dimers. The average mass of a single receptor dimer was determined as being 186 +/- 4 kDa. CONCLUSIONS Proteoparticles resemble TfR exosomes that are expelled by sheep reticulocytes upon maturation. The structure of proteoparticles in vitro is thus interpreted as being the result of the TfR's strong self-association potential, which might facilitate the endosomal sequestration of the TfR away from other membrane proteins and its subsequent return to the cell surface within tubular structures. The stalk is assumed to facilitate the tight packing of receptor molecules in coated pits and recycling tubuli.

Abstract
A PCR-based intron jumping strategy has been utilized to investigate the exon/intron structure of the human transferrin receptor gene and determine the sequences of exon/intron junctions. There are 18 exons and introns 5' to a large exon encoding the last translated segment and a sizable 3' untranslated segment. All of the translated segments are encoded by exons 2-19. The tight turn motif, which is critical to the process of endocytosis, is encoded by exon 3. Based on recent studies of human/chicken receptor chimeras, it appears that the residues most likely to be involved in transferrin binding are encoded by exons 17-19. Exon 12 exhibits the greatest degree of homology with the gene for the prostate specific membrane antigen. A polymorphism has been tentatively identified at nucleotide position 519 in exon 4; the presence of either adenine or guanine should result in either serine or glycine, respectively, at position 142 of the amino acid sequence. This analysis of genomic structure will permit further detailed studies of the regulation, expression and evolution of the human transferrin receptor gene.

Abstract
Treatment with phorbol esters increases endocytosis of the transferrin receptor in K562 cells (Klausner, R. D., Harford, J., and van Renswoude, J. (1984) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 81, 3005-3009). In this report, we demonstrate that this effect is reversible within early times of protein kinase C activation (< 2 h) but that prolonged exposure to phorbol esters results in a net loss of receptors. These effects are not due to the differentiation response of K562 cells to phorbol esters since bryostatin-1 also down-regulates the endocytosis of the transferrin receptor and shut downs receptor synthesis, but does not induce differentiation (Hocevar, B. A., Morrow, D. M., Tykocinski, M. L., and Fields, A. P. (1992) J. Cell Sci. 101, 671-679). We have characterized the early stages of receptor down-regulation which occur due to stimulation of receptor internalization from the cell surface. The fact that fluid-phase pinocytosis is also enhanced upon protein kinase C activation indicates that this effect is not specific for the transferrin receptor itself, but is a rather general cellular response to tumor-promoting phorbol esters. The fate of down-regulated transferrin receptors was followed in morphological and subcellular fractionation studies that demonstrate localization of this pool of receptors in early endocytic and recycling compartments. Our results exclude the possibility that transferrin receptor down-regulation results in trafficking of the receptor to lysosomal compartments for degradation. This idea is consistent with the observations that the time course of transferrin receptor degradation is not enhanced in stimulated K562 cells, while transferrin receptor synthesis is shut down. Our results rigorously demonstrate that activation of protein kinase C down-regulates the K562 cell transferrin receptor in two stages: acute regulation of early steps in endocytosis that results in an immediate reduction of approximately 40% in cell surface number of receptors and a more chronic reduction in transferrin receptor synthesis upon prolonged exposure to phorbol esters (> 15 h).

Abstract
The kinetics of phosphorylation of an integral membrane enzyme, Na+/K(+)-ATPase, by calcium- and phospholipid-dependent protein kinase C (PKC) were characterized in vitro. The phosphorylation by PKC occurred on the catalytic alpha-subunit of Na+/K(+)-ATPase in preparations of purified enzyme from dog kidney and duck salt-gland and in preparations of duck salt-gland microsomes. The phosphorylation required calcium (Ka approximately 1.0 microM) and was stimulated by tumor-promoting phorbol ester (12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate) in the presence of a low concentration of calcium (0.1 microM). PKC phosphorylation of Na+/K(+)-ATPase was rapid and plateaued within 30 min. The apparent Km of PKC for Na+/K(+)-ATPase as a substrate was 0.5 microM for dog kidney enzyme and 0.3 microM for duck salt-gland enzyme. Apparent substrate inhibition of PKC activity was observed at concentrations of purified salt-gland Na+/K(+)-ATPase greater than 1.0 microM. Phosphorylation of purified kidney and salt-gland Na+/K+ ATPases occurred at both serine and threonine residues. The 32P-phosphopeptide pattern on 15% sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis after hydroxylamine cleavage of pure 32P-phosphorylated alpha subunit was the same for the two sources of enzyme, which suggests that the phosphorylation sites are similar. The results indicate that Na+/K(+)-ATPase may serve as a substrate for PKC phosphorylation in intact cells and that the Na+/K(+)-ATPase could be a useful in vitro model substrate for PKC interaction with integral membrane proteins.

Abstract
The effect of substrate phosphorylation on the susceptibility to proteolytic cleavage by trypsin-like enzymes was investigated using the model heptapeptide Leu-Arg-Arg-Ala-Ser-Leu-Gly, a peptide representing the endogenous phosphorylation site of pyruvate kinase. Phosphorylation of Ser 5 altered the kinetics of proteolysis by two proteases, trypsin and rat plasma kallikrein, both of which cleaved between Arg 3 and Ala 4. In the case of trypsin, phosphorylation decreased the rate of cleavage 47-fold. In the case of rat plasma kallikrein, phosphorylation decreased proteolysis 13-fold. Phosphorylation resulted in an apparent redirection of the preferential site from Arg 3 to Arg 2. Because sequences analogous to this model peptide are commonly found in exposed domains of globular proteins, and since these regions are susceptible to both phosphorylation and protease attack, the results indicate that substrate phosphorylation may selectively influence protein processing and turnover.

Abstract
Histamine is an important mediator of immediate hypersensitivity for both animals and humans. The action of histamine on target tissues is believed to be mediated by specific cell surface receptors, especially H1 and H2 receptors for hypersensitivity and inflammatory reactions, which involve stimulation of smooth muscle contractility, alterations in vascular permeability, and modifications in the activities of macrophages and lymphocytes. Although the nature of histamine receptors in the brain and peripheral tissues has been studied extensively by many laboratories, the molecular mechanism of histamine receptor-mediated reactions is not fully understood, mainly because histamine receptors are incompletely characterized from the biochemical point of view. In previous studies, we have found that the cultured smooth muscle cell line DDT1MF-2, derived from hamster vas deferens, expresses low-affinity histamine H1 receptors and responds biochemically and functionally to H1-specific stimulation (Mitsuhashi and Payan, J Cell Physiol 134:367, 1988). This cell line provides a model for analyzing the biochemical responses of H1 receptor-mediated reactions in peripheral tissues. In this review, we summarized our recent progress in the study of low-affinity H1 receptors on DDT1MF-2 cells.

Abstract
The mechanism of excitation energy redistribution (state transition) in organisms containing phycobilins is reviewed. Recent measurements using time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy in the picosecond range confirm that the state transition in cyanobacteria and red algae is controlled by changes in the kinetics of energy transfer from PS 2 to PS 1 (spillover) rather than by physical dislocation of the phycobilisome and reassociation between the two photosystems (mobile antenna model). Contrary to the analogous situation in higher plants, there is no compelling evidence for the involvement of a protein phosphorylation event in the rapid time range of the state transition, but a variety of data indicate that a membrane conformational change occurs that might change the relative distance between, and/or orientation of the two photosystems within the thylakoid. The state transition is most probably initiated by the redox state of the intersystem electron transport chain, and the conversion to state 1 is driven by coupled PS1 cyclic electron transport. The cryptomonads also undergo wavelength dependent changes in excitation energy distribution by a mechanism very similar to that observed in the red algae and cyanobacteria. However, the changes in energy distribution in this group are most likely related to a photoprotection mechanism for PS2 rather than to a state transition.

Abstract
Increased rates of protein phosphorylation, IL-2 receptor (IL-2R) expression, IL-2 production and DNA synthesis were quantified in rat lymphocytes oxidized by periodic acid (H5IO6). Enhanced phosphorylation of 97, 59 and 37 to 29 kDa proteins in lymphocytes was detected at 18 and 36 hrs post-oxidation, whereas IL-2R expression and IL-2 elaboration were at their maximum by 24 hrs. The number of oxidized cells entering the S-phase of the cell cycle and their thymidine incorporation rates reached their maximum at 72 hrs. These results indicate that H5IO6-induced blastogenesis elicits a progression of responses temporally similar to those of lymphocytes stimulated by lectins.

Abstract
The T cell surface molecule CD4 interacts with class II MHC molecules on the surface of target cells as well as with the envelope glycoprotein of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Internalization of CD4 molecules is observed after exposure of CD4+ T cells to either phorbol esters or appropriate antigen-bearing target cells. To determine whether HIV entry proceeds via receptor-mediated endocytosis or direct viral fusion with the cell membrane, we have constructed two mutants in the cytoplasmic domain of the CD4 protein that severely impair the ability of CD4 molecules to undergo endocytosis. Quantitative infectivity studies reveal that HeLa cell lines expressing wild-type or mutant CD4 molecules are equally susceptible to HIV infection. In addition, HIV binding does not lead to CD4 endocytosis. These studies indicate that although the CD4 molecule can be internalized, HIV entry proceeds via direct fusion of the viral envelope with the cell membrane.

Abstract
The importance of calcium in lymphocyte activation is well recognized, but the levels of extracellular ionized free calcium (Ca++) necessary for lymphocyte proliferation via various pathways have not been investigated in detail. We studied the ability of a lectin mitogen (PHA) and a calcium ionophore (ionomycin) to induce interleukin 2 receptors, interleukin 2 (IL2) production, and proliferation over various concentrations of extracellular Ca++. Reducing the Ca++ levels from the normal 200 microM to 10 microM in PHA-stimulated cultures partially inhibited IL2 receptor expression, IL2 production, and subsequent proliferation. At 1 microM Ca++, both IL2 activity and proliferation were eliminated, but partial IL2 receptor expression was still observed. Ionomycin did not induce any of these events in cultures where the extracellular Ca++ concentration was below 100 microM. Restoring calcium in the medium resulted in normal levels of IL2 receptor expression, IL2 activity, and proliferation when PBL were stimulated with either mitogen. Exogenous magnesium partially restored these events in PHA-stimulated cultures, but had no effect when ionomycin was used as the mitogen. These data indicate that stimulation by ionomycin is much more dependent upon the levels of extracellular Ca++ than is PHA. Extracellular calcium also appears to be necessary subsequent to IL2 receptor acquisition, since the latter was seen without IL2 activity or proliferation at very low extracellular Ca++, and IL2 failed to restore the proliferative response under these conditions. The data also suggest that PHA, but not ionomycin, can activate lymphocytes via a magnesium-dependent pathway, or that PHA has a lower specificity for divalent cation cofactors.

Abstract
Stimulation of secretion in exocrine glands by agonists involving cAMP as second messenger leads to the phosphorylation of the ribosomal protein S6 (protein I) and two other particulate proteins with apparent molecular masses of 24 kDa (protein II) and 22 kDa (protein III) [Jahn, R., Unger, C. & Söling, H. D. (1980) Eur. J. Biochem. 112, 345-352]. This report describes the purification and characterization of protein III. Solubilization studies indicate that protein III is an intrinsic membrane protein. It could be extracted from the endoplasmic reticulum membrane only with Triton X-100, SDS or concentrated formic or acetic acid. The purification of this protein involved extraction of the microsomes with Triton X-100, removal of the detergent by acetone precipitation, extraction of water-soluble proteins, lipids and lipoproteins, and preparative SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The protein has a basic pI (greater than 8.7). For determination of the amino acid composition of protein III and for sequencing of its amino-terminal portion, the protein was electroeluted out off the gel, the detergent removed and the protein finally purified by reversed-phase HPLC. Protein III could be phosphorylated in vitro by the catalytic subunit of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase to a degree of approximately 0.14 mol phosphate/mol protein. The only phosphopeptide obtained after in vitro phosphorylation and subsequent tryptic or chymotryptic digestion was identical with the phosphopeptide obtained after stimulation of intact rat parotid gland lobules with isoproterenol. The sequence of this peptide was Lys-Leu-Ser(P)-Glu-Ala-Asp-Asn-Arg. It was confirmed by an analysis of the synthetic peptide following in vitro phosphorylation with cAMP-dependent protein kinase. The first 41 N-terminal residues of protein III were sequenced. So far no sequence homology with other known peptides or proteins could be found.

Abstract
The present study was undertaken in order to examine the effect of protein kinase C (PKC) on histamine H1 receptors (H1R) present on the smooth muscle cell line, DDT1MF-2. [3H]-pyrilamine binding revealed that specific [3H]-pyrilamine binding sites were reduced by pretreatment with 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA), an activator of PKC, but not the Kd. The TPA analogue, 4 alpha phorbol 12,13-didecanoate, which does not activate PKC, failed to induce down-regulation of H1R. TPA-induced down-regulation of H1R was inhibited by pretreatment with 1-(5-Isoquinilinesulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine dihydrochloride (H-7), a PKC inhibitor, in a dose dependent manner. The H-7 analogue, H-8, which is a less potent inhibitor of PKC, but a potent inhibitor of cyclic nucleotide dependent protein kinase, had no effect on H1R. Moreover, treatment with TPA inhibited histamine-induced increases in [Ca2+]i in cells loaded with the fluorescent indicator, indo-1. These data suggest that H1R in DDT1MF-2 cells are functionally regulated by PKC.

Abstract
The transferrin (Tf) receptor is a major transmembrane protein which provides iron for normal and malignant cell growth. Epidermal growth factor (EGF) has been reported to rapidly and transiently alter the number of surface Tf receptors in normal and transformed epithelial cells. To investigate mechanisms of EGF-induced changes in surface Tf display, EGF effects on surface Tf receptors were compared in two cell lines which differ in their number of EGF receptors and growth responses to EGF. In cloned A431 cells with high receptor numbers which are growth-inhibited by EGF, EGF caused a 50% decrease in Tf receptor expression after 30 min. In contrast, EGF induced a rapid, transitory increase (within 5 min) in the number of surface Tf receptors on KB carcinoma cells which returned to basal levels by 15 min. The observed changes in Tf receptor display were due to altered receptor distribution and not changes in ligand affinity or total cellular transferrin receptor pools. Anti-EGF receptor monoclonal antibody blocked effects of EGF on transferrin receptor expression. Since the antibody is internalized and causes EGF receptor down-regulation, effects on transferrin receptor expression were independent of these events. EGF-induced alterations in Tf receptor display occurred even when cells were pretreated with colchicine, suggesting that changes in surface Tf binding were not mediated by cytoskeletal components. Na orthovanadate, which mimics some early cellular effects of EGF, duplicated EGF's effects on A431 Tf receptors, but had no effect on KB cells, suggesting these responses occur by differing mechanisms. To determine whether EGF caused changes in Tf receptor phosphorylation, 32P-labelled Tf receptors were immunoprecipitated after EGF treatment. After exposure to EGF, A431 cells showed no change in Tf phosphorylation, but KB cells showed a transient, 6-fold increase in transferrin receptor phosphorylation on serine residues. In both A431 and KB cells, phorbol ester (PMA) also increased phosphorylation on transferrin receptors, but had little effect on surface Tf receptor expression. In malignant cell lines, EGE induces rapid, variable changes in transferrin receptor expression and phosphorylation which differ from the effects of PMA. These early responses to EGF appear to differ with the cell type and correlate poorly with alterations in Tf receptor phosphorylation. These results suggest Tf receptor phosphorylation does not regulate Tf receptor display in all cells.

Abstract
The transferrin receptor (TR) mediates cellular iron uptake by bringing about the endocytosis of transferrin. We investigated whether the cytoplasmic domain of 65 N-terminal amino acids or phosphorylated sites within this domain constitute a structure that is required for TR endocytosis. To test this hypothesis, we modified the cytoplasmic serine residues or introduced a deletion of 36 amino acids by in vitro mutagenesis of a cDNA expression vector for human TR. Upon expression in transfected mouse Ltk- cells, both the wild-type and phosphorylation site mutant receptors mediated transferrin internalization, whereas the truncated receptor did not. These results provide evidence that the cytoplasmic domain, or part of it, is essential for internalization of the TR, but argue against a role for receptor phosphorylation in endocytosis.

Abstract
At least two major effects of receptor phosphorylation have been identified--regulation of receptor function, and regulation of receptor distribution. In many cases where phosphorylation directly alters the functions of receptors, this appears to be in a negative direction. Such decreases in receptor activity may reflect reduced ability to interact with biochemical effectors (e.g., the beta-adrenergic receptor, rhodopsin), reduced affinity for binding agonist ligands (EGF,IGF-I, insulin receptors) or reduced enzymatic activity (e.g., tyrosine kinase activity of the insulin or EGF receptor). In all instances, these negative modulations are associated with phosphorylation of serine and/or threonine residues of the receptor proteins. In contrast, the tyrosine kinase receptors also appear to be susceptible to positive modulation by phosphorylation. With these receptors, autophosphorylation of tyrosine residues may lead to enhanced protein-tyrosine kinase activity of the receptors and increased receptor function. In addition, the subcellular distribution of a receptor may be regulated by its phosphorylation status (e.g., the beta-adrenergic receptor, receptors for insulin, EGF, IGF-II, and transferrin). The emerging paradigm is that receptor phosphorylation may in some way promote receptor internalization into sequestered compartments where dephosphorylation occurs. The molecular and cellular mechanisms involved in translating changes in receptor phosphorylation into changes in receptor distribution remain to be elucidated. Moreover, the biological role of receptor internalization may be quite varied. Thus, in the case of the beta-adrenergic receptor, it may serve primarily as a mechanism for bringing the phosphorylated receptors into contact with intracellular phosphatases that dephosphorylate and resensitize it. By contrast, for the transferrin receptor and other receptors involved in receptor-mediated endocytosis, the internalization presumably functions to carry some specific ligand or metabolite into the cell. The role of phosphorylation in regulating receptor function dramatically extends the range of regulatory control of this important covalent modification.
