Targeted disruption of the RII subunit of
protein kinase A (PKA) produces lean mice that resist diet-induced
obesity. In this report we examine the effects of the RII knockout
on white adipose tissue physiology. Loss of RII is compensated by an
increase in the RI isoform, generating an isoform switch from a type
II to a type I PKA. Type I holoenzyme binds cAMP more avidly and is
more easily activated than the type II enzyme. These alterations are
associated with increases in both basal kinase activity and the basal
rate of lipolysis, possibly contributing to the lean phenotype.
However, the ability of both 3-selective and
nonspecific -adrenergic agonists to stimulate lipolysis is markedly
compromised in mutant white adipose tissue. This defect was found
in vitro and in vivo and does not result from
reduced expression of -adrenergic receptor or hormone-sensitive
lipase genes. In contrast, -adrenergic stimulated gene transcription
remains intact, and the expression of key genes involved in lipid
metabolism is normal under both fasted and fed conditions. We suggest
that the R subunit isoform switch disrupts the subcellular localization
of PKA that is required for efficient transduction of signals that
modulate lipolysis but not for those that mediate gene expression.
