Abstract

Addition of 10% fetal calf serum to BHK cells made quiescent by maintenance for 48 hours in sub-optimal serum (0.5%) caused rapid changes in cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase activity (increased maximum velocity and affinity) even in the presence of inhibitors of protein synthesis. Activity changes were associated with an alteration in the number of forms of cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase identified by Agarose gel filtration. Three forms of cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase were apparent after serum addition whereas only two forms were resolved in quiescent BHK cells. The initial rapid increase in cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase activity seen when serum was added to quiescent cells was followed temporally by a much slower increase in cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase activity that could be prevented by cycloheximide or actinomycin D.
