Abstract:
:The regulatory subunits of cyclic AMP (cAMP)-dependent protein kinase from a dibutyryl cAMP-resistant S49 mouse lymphoma cell mutant, clone U200/65.1, and its revertants were visualized by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Clone U200/65.1 co-expressed electrophoretically distinguishable mutant and wild-type subunits (Steinberg et al., Cell 10:381-391, 1977). In all 48 clones examined, reversion of the mutant to dibutyryl cAMP sensitivity was accompanied by alterations in regulatory subunit labeling patterns. Some spontaneous (3 of 11) and N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine-induced (2 of 11) revertants retained mutant subunits, but these were altered in charge, degree of phosphorylation, or both. The charge alterations were consistent with single amino acid substitutions, suggesting that reversion was the result of second-site mutations in the mutant regulatory subunit allele that restored wild-type function, although not wild-type structure, to the gene product. The majority of spontaneous (8 of 11) and N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine-induced (9 of 11) revertants and all of the revertants induced by ethyl methane sulfonate (14 of 14) and ICR191 (12 of 12) displayed only wild-type subunits. Dibutyryl cAMP-resistant mutants isolated from several of these revertants displayed new mutant but not wild-type subunits, suggesting that the revertant parent expresses only a single, functional regulatory subunit allele. The mutant regulatory subunit allele can, therefore, be modified in two general ways to produce revertant phenotypes: (i) by mutations that restore its wild-type function, and (ii) by mutations that eliminate its function.
