Cyclic AMP-binding and cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase activities in the cytosol of differentiating bone marrow erythroblasts
pCytosolic cyclic AMP-binding capacity and cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase activity have been studied in relation to differentiation and maturation of rabbit bone marrow erythroblasts. Using cells fractionated by velocity sedimentation at unit gravity, it was found that both activities decreased in dividing cells when calculated in terms of cell number but remained constant per cell volume. After the final cell division, cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase activity did not change further, whereas cyclic AMP-binding capacity declined. There were no qualitative, but only quantitative, changes in the cyclic AMP-binding proteins that are present in the cytosol of developing erythroblasts. In the immature cells, the apparent KD for the interaction of binding proteins with cyclic AMP was 4 } 10(-8) M. The data suggest that changes in cyclic AMP-binding activity during differentiation of erythroid cells are due both to changes in the amount of binding proteins and in their affinity for cyclic AMP. Plasma membranes of erythroblasts were also able to bind cyclic AMP but only in dividing cells./p
