1. Troponin I isolated from fresh cardiac muscle by affinity chromatography contains about 1.9 mol of covalently bound phosphate/mol. Similar preparations of white-skeletal-muscle troponin I contain about 0.5 mol of phosphate/mol. 2. A 3':5'-cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase and a protein phosphatase are associated with troponin isolated from cardiac muscle. 3. Bovine cardiac 3':5'-cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase catalyses the phosphorylation of cardiac troponin I 30 times faster than white-skeletal-muscle troponin I. 4. Troponin I is the only component of cardiac troponin phosphorylated at a significant rate by the endogenous or a bovine cardiac 3':5'-cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. 5. Phosphorylase kinase catalyses the phosphorylation of cardiac troponin I at similar or slightly faster rates than white-skeletal-muscle troponin I. 6. Troponin C inhibits the phosphorylation of cardiac and skeletal troponin I catalysed by phosphorylase kinase and the phosphorylation of white skeletal troponin I catalysed by 3':5'-cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase; the phosphorylation of cardiac troponin I catalysed by the latter enzyme is not inhibited.

Skeletal-muscle troponin I and troponin T were found to be rapidly phosphorylated by cardiac phospholipid-sensitive Ca2+-dependent protein kinase, with Km values of 6.66 and 0.13 microM respectively. Stoichiometric phosphorylation of skeletal troponin I (endogenous phosphate content 0.7 mol/mol) indicated that the Ca2+-dependent enzyme and cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase incorporated 0.9 and 0.8 mol/mol respectively. The same experiments with skeletal troponin T (endogenous phosphate content 1.9 mol/mol) revealed a maximal phosphorylation of 2 mol/mol by the Ca2+-dependent enzyme, whereas the cyclic AMP-dependent enzyme was unable to phosphorylate troponin T. The Ca2+-dependent enzyme phosphorylated both serine and threonine residues in skeletal and cardiac troponin I or troponin T; the cyclic AMP-dependent enzyme, in comparison, phosphorylated only serine in skeletal and cardiac troponin I. Although an equimolar amount of skeletal or cardiac troponin C markedly inhibited (80-90%) phosphorylation of skeletal and cardiac troponin I by the Ca2+-dependent enzyme, these troponin C preparations inhibited only phosphorylation of skeletal troponin I, but not that of cardiac troponin I, by the cyclic AMP-dependent enzyme. Calmodulin and Ca2+-binding protein S-100a could mimic the inhibitory effect of troponin C. A tissue specificity appeared to exist for the skeletal troponin T-skeletal troponin C interaction. Inhibition of troponin T phosphorylation by an equimolar amount of troponin C was lower than that of troponin I phosphorylation; these findings might explain in part why troponin T was the major substrate for the Ca2+-dependent enzyme in the troponin complex. The present studies indicate that skeletal and cardiac troponin I and troponin T were effective substrates for phospholipid-sensitive Ca2+-dependent protein kinase, suggesting a potential involvement of this Ca2+-effector enzyme in the regulation of myofibrillar activity.

1. Troponin I prepared from rabbit hearts contains 1.0-1.5 mol of P/mol when isolated by affinity chromatography. Most of the covalently bound phosphate is located in residues 1-48 of the molecule. 2. 3′:5′-Cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase catalyses phosphorylation at serine-20 and serine-146. Serine-20 is more rapidly phosphorylated than serine-146. 3. In troponin I prepared from frozen hearts by affinity chromatography about 0.3-0.5 mol of P/mol is associated with serine-20 and 0.8-1.0 mol of P/mol with other site(s) in residues 1-48 of the molecule. 4. Phosphorylation at serine-20 and servine-146 is not significantly inhibited by troponin C. 5. The mechansim of the interaction of troponin C with cardiac troponin I is discussed in the light of these results.

When hearts from control and phosphorylase kinase-deficient (I strain) mice were perfused with 0.1 micrometer-DL-isoprenaline, there was a parallel increase in contraction, cyclic AMP concentration and troponin I phosphorylation. However, there was no increase in phosphorylase a in the I-strain hearts, whereas the control hearts showed a large increase. Assays of I-strain heart extracts showed a normal cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase activity but no phosphorylase kinase activity. It is concluded that troponin I is phosphorylated in intact hearts by protein kinase and not phosphorylase kinase.
