This study was initiated in order to elaborate further on the mechanism by which epinephrine modulates cardiac function via protein phosphorylation. A membrane fraction has been isolated from freeze-clamped perfused rat heart that contains two phosphoproteins. These proteins have molecular weights of 36,000 (A protein) and 27,000 (B protein). The phosphorylation of the A protein occurs during the equilibration of the heart with inorganic [32P]phosphate. The phosphorylation of the B protein occurs in response to epinephrine. The A and B proteins are apparently identical with two phosphoproteins in enriched preparations of sarcolemma. The protein of the sarcolemma preparation equivalent to the A protein is phosphorylated in vitro by both cAMP-independent and cAMP-dependent protein kinases. The phosphorylation of the protein of the sarcolemma preparation equivalent to the B protein is catalyzed by the cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Thus the patterns of phosphorylation of these proteins in vivo and in vitro are compatible. The phosphorylation of the B protein has been documented in vitro to modulate calcium transport (Will, H., et al. (1973) Acta Biol. Med. Ger. 31, 45-52), but the response to epinephrine in the perfused heart is not apparently coordinated with the catecholamine-induced inotropic effect.
