摘要:In hepatocytes stimulated with 8-bromo-cAMP, insulin decreases the affinity of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase for cAMP, shifting the Ka without affecting the Vmax activity. This occurs under conditions where cyclic adenine nucleotide concentrations are unchanged. We report here that glycogenolysis stimulated by 8-(4-chlorophenylthio)-cAMP, an analog with 100 times tighter affinity than cAMP for the protein kinase regulatory subunit, was only slightly antagonized by insulin. The tight binding of this analog appears to overcome the protein kinase affinity change induced by insulin. The relative importance of the two intrachain cAMP binding sites of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase regulatory subunit was investigated by using analogs with relative selectivity for each site. Analogs exhibiting preferential binding to site 2 were far less sensitive to insulin antagonism than were analogs binding preferentially at site 1 and less well at site 2. No other property of these analogs, including the rate of hydrolysis by phosphodiesterase, the IC50 for phosphodiesterase, the Ka for protein kinase, or the type I versus type II kinase specificity, could account for the ability of insulin to antagonize glycogenolysis stimulated by these analogs. These data indicate that insulin may act to decrease the affinity of protein kinases for cAMP through a possible regulation of intrachain site 2 binding.
