PG - F572-7 AB - Parathyroid hormone (PTH) in opossum kidney (OK) cells leads to inhibition of Na-Pi cotransport, to the generation of inositol trisphosphate (IP3) and adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) and to a phosphorylation of proteins present in an enriched apical membrane fraction (27, 28; for review see Ref. 23). In the present report we have identified two of these phosphoproteins with molecular weights of approximately 22,000 and approximately 24,000, respectively, as guanosine 5'-triphosphate (GTP)-binding proteins, ADP-ribosylated by the Clostridium botulinum exotoxin C3 and recognized by an anti-rho polyclonal antibody but not by pan-ras monoclonal antibody; as suggested by Western-blot analysis the content of the proteins recognized by the anti-rho antibody did not alter in the membrane fraction as a function of treatment with PTH. Transient permeabilization of OK cells using streptolysin O and including the C3 exotoxin attenuated PTH-dependent inhibition of Na-Pi cotransport at hormone concentrations higher than 10(-10) M; residual PTH-dependent inhibition is equal to that observed after pharmacological activation of protein kinase A and protein kinase C, respectively. C3 exotoxin did not alter PTH-dependent generation of cAMP but modified production of IP3; it was increased at 10(-11) M and reduced at 10(-8) M PTH, respectively. It is suggested that protein kinase A may be involved in the phosphorylation of C3 exotoxin-sensitive G proteins (rho/rac). These proteins could be involved in PTH signal transduction.
