Abstract：
:Cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase activity in bovine brain coated vesicles displayed a Km of approximately 22 microM for cyclic AMP, a Vmax of 3.2 nmol/min/mg protein, and a Hill coefficient of 1.5, suggesting positive cooperativity. The enzyme activity was stimulated by cyclic GMP with maximal indexes of stimulation ranging between 40 and 300%. Both basal and stimulated phosphodiesterase activities were immunotitrated with polyclonal antibodies against clathrin attached to heat-inactivated, formaldehyde-fixed Staphylococcus aureus cells. The main form of phosphodiesterase activity present in the immunoprecipitated brain coated vesicle preparation also is stimulated by cyclic GMP. The allosteric behavior was modulated by cyclic GMP. All of these properties are typical of type II or cyclic GMP-sensitive phosphodiesterases in addition to their calcium and calmodulin independence. Competition experiments with a series of phosphodiesterase inhibitors, papaverine, 1-methyl-3-isobutylxanthine, and theophylline, showed inhibition of cyclic AMP hydrolysis. Trifluoperazine was inactive at the highest concentration used, 100 microM. These compounds also inhibited the cyclic GMP-stimulated cyclic AMP hydrolysis with trifluoperazine practically inactive. At 5 microM cyclic AMP none of the inhibitors was seen to stimulate the cyclic AMP hydrolytic activity. The presence of an enzyme for the breakdown of cyclic nucleotides in brain coated vesicles may suggest a role for these second messengers in the in vivo functions of this organelle.
