Addition of glucagon (20 nM) to the isolated hepatocytes from 24-h starved male rats results in an inactivation of glycogen synthase. The A0.5 for glucose-6-P is increased 2-fold over the control but the S0.5 for UDP-glucose is not significantly affected. The glucagon-stimulated inactivation of glycogen synthase is also accompanied by a 60-120% increase in the phosphorylation of the synthase. Glycogen synthase labeled with 32P by incubation of the hepatocytes with [32P] PO4(3-) was recovered by immunoprecipitation and the resulting immunoprecipitate was subjected to tryptic digestion. Analysis of the 32P-labeled peptides reveals that the sites corresponding to those phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase and glycogen synthase (casein) kinase-1 (Itarte, E., and Huang, K.-P. (1979) J. Biol. Chem. 254, 4052-4057) are rapidly phosphorylated in response to glucagon. These results demonstrate that glucagon not only triggers the activation of cAMP-dependent protein kinase through an increase in the intracellular level of cAMP but also, by an unknown mechanism, activates a Ca2+- and cAMP-independent protein kinase.
