A phosphoprotein kinase (ATP : protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37) from calf thymus nuclei was purified by DEAE-cellulose chromatography, hydroxyapatite, and Sepharose 6B gel filtration. The enzyme is a cyclic AMP-independent protein kinase by the following criteria: (a) the protein kinase did not bind cyclic AMP; (b) no inhibition of activity was obtained with the heat-stable protein kinase inhibitor from rabbit skeletal muscle; (c) the regulatory subunit of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase had no effect on activity; and (d) no inhibition was obtained with antibody to cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. The nuclear cyclic AMP-independent protein kinase readily phosphorylated protamine on serine and to a lesser extent on threonine. Homologous nucleoplasmic RNA polymerase (EC 2.7.7.6) is a better substrate than arginine-rich histone, phosvitin or casein. Physical characteristics of the enzyme are described.

An adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate-dependent protein kinase II (ATP:protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37) was partially purified from the cytosol fraction of an exponentially growing culture of Tetrahymena pyriformis. Protein kinase II represented approximately 90% of the cytosolic protein kinase activity. The enzyme had a high degree of substrate specificity for calf thymus and Tetrahymena histones as compared to casein, protamine and phosvitin. The enzyme incorporated the terminal phosphate of ATP into serine and threonine residues of all the histone fractions. The apparent Km of the enzyme for adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP) was 1-10-minus 8 M. Protein kinase II was also activated by other cyclic nucleotides with apparent Km values in the range 2.k-10-minus 6 M. Ther specific activity of the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase of Tetrahymena decreases markedly from initial high values during the transition from the lag to early log phase of growth. This is followed by a shrp increase in the activity of the enzyme as the log phase of growth progresses. The specific activity of the enzyme increases rapidly during the heat-induced synchronization of Tetrahymena cells. The capacity for rapid phosphorylation of multiple classed of organelle-specific phosphoproteins and the level of cyclic AMP were maximal in Tetrahymena during the earliest phase of growth. These results demonstrate that the cell cycle of Tetrahymena may be coordinated by marked variations in the level of cyclic AMP which in turn regulate the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase.

Cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP) dependent protein kinase and proteins specifically binding cAMP have been extracted from calf thymus nuclei and analyzed for their abilities to bind to DNA. Approximately 70% of the cAMP-binding activity in the nucleus can be ascribed to a nuclear acidic protein with physical and biochemical characteristics of the regulatory (R) subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Several peaks of protein kinase activity and of cAMP-binding activity are resolved by affinity chromatography of nuclear acidic proteins on calf thymus DNA covalently linked to aminoethyl Sephrarose 4B. When an extensively purified protein kinase is subjected to chromatography on the DNA column in the presence of 10(-7) M cAMP, the R subunit of the kinase is eluted from the column at 0.05 M NaCl while the catalytic (C) subunit of the enzyme is eluted at 0.1-0.2 M NaCl. When chromatographed in the presence of histones, the R subunit is retained on the column and is eluted at 0.6-0.9 M NaCl. In the presence of cAMP, association of the C subunit with DNA is enhanced, as determined by sucrose density gradient centrifugation of DNA-protein kinase complexes. cAMP increases the capacity of the calf thymus cAMP-dependent protein kinase preparation to bind labeled calf thymus DNA, as determined by a technique employing filter retention of DNA-protein complexes. This protein kinase preparation binds calf thymus DNA in preference to salmon DNA, Escherichia coli DNA, or yeast RNA. Binding of protein kinases to DNA may be part of a mechanism for localizing cyclic nucleotide stimulated protein phosphorylation at specific sites in the chromatin.

Both E. coli and calf thymus DNA polymerase can be phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase and phosphorylation appears to stimulate the DNA polymerase reaction. Conversely, dephosphorylation of the polymerase molecule, by a protein phosphatase, inhibits the polymerase reaction.

In the absence of added hemin, protein synthesis in rabbit reticulocyte lysates proceeds at maximal linear rates for several minutes and then ceases abruptly. Inhibition involves the action of a translational inhibitor whose formation is regulated by hemin. Addition of the isolated inhibitor to hemin-supplemented lysates produces an inhibition of protein chain initiation similar to that observed in heme-deficiency. The inhibitor has been purified over 300-fold and contains a protein kinase activity that copurifies with the inhibitory function. With calf thymus histone II as the phosphate receptor, the inhibitor-associated protein kinase requires ATP as the phosphorylating agent. Cycle AMP stimulates kinase activity 5- to 8-fold; the concentration of cycle AMP required for halfmaximal activity is 4 X 10-8 M. Preincubation of the inhibitor in the presence of cyclic AMP significantly reduces cyclic AMP-dependent phosphorylation and inhibitory activity. The corresponding protein kinase activity from hemin-supplemented lysates displays reduced cyclic AMP-dependency and little or no inhibitory activity. These findings suggest that the protein kinase activity associated with the purified translational inhibitor is involved in the mechanism of inhibition of initiation observed in hemedeficient reticulocyte lysates.

1. Cyclic-AMP dependent protein kinases, resolved by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose and hydroxylapatite, catalysed the phosphorylation of rat liver pyruvate kinase and calf thymus histones by [gamma32P]ATP. [32P]phosphopeptides, from acid hydrolysates of pyruvate kinase phosphorylated by the different protein kinase fractions, displayed identical electrophoretic patterns. Phosphorylation inhibited pyruvate kinase activity. 2. Full activity was restored when phosphorylated pyruvate kinase was dephosphorylated by a histone phosphatase from the soluble fraction of rat liver. These results are consistent with the hypothesis that pyruvate kinase is regulated by phosphorylation-dephosphorylation reactions.

A previous study demonstrated that the translational inhibitor from lysates of heme-deficient rabbit reticulocytes is associated with a protein kinase activity. Chromatography of this inhibitor preparation on phosphocellulose yields two distinct protein kinase activities, PC1 and PC2. PC1, which consitutes about 90% of the activity in the unresolved preparation, does not inhibit protein synthesis in lysates, but actively phosporylates calf thymus histone II in a 3':5'-cyclic AMP-denpendent reaction. PC2 contains the translational inhibitor, phosphorylates histone poorly, and is not cyclic AMP-dependent. While [gamma-32P]ATP as the phosphate donor, the two kinase fractions were analyzed with the putative substrates, salt-washed 40S ribosomal subunits, and the initiation factor that mediates the binding of Met-tRNAf to the 40S subunit. PC1 is inactive with the initiation factor, but phosphorylates 40S subunits at a single major site that migrates as a 31,000-dalton band in sodium dodecyl sulfate-acrylamide gels; phosphorylation requires cyclic AMP. Similar phosphorylation of the reticulocyte 40S site (31,000 daltons) can be demonstrated with other cyclic AMP-dependent kinases from reticulocytes, rat liver, and bovine heart muscle. PC2 phosphorylates the small subunit (38,000 daltons) but not the large subunit(s) of the initiation factor; the reaction does not require cyclic AMP. PC2 does not phosphorylate 40S subunits. In the presence of 40S subunits, the initiation factor appears to be rapidly bound in a manner that effectively blocks phosphorylation of the initiation factor by PC2; under the same conditions phosphorylation of the 40S subunit by PC1 is not affected. The initiation factor has been shown to reverse the inhibitions of protein chain initiation induced in lysates by heme deficiency, double-stranded RNA, oxidized glutathione, or the purified translational inhibitor. The observation that the Met-tRNAf binding factor is phosphorylated by PC2 supports the hypothesis that this initiation factor is a target for the action of the translational inhibitor activated in heme deficiency.

Adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase A) purified from silkworm pupae phosphorylated five major fractions of calf thymus histone, whereas guanosine 3':5'-monophosphate-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase G) purified from the same organism reacted preferentially with H1, H2A, and H2B histones. Amino acid analysis of the phosphopeptides which were obtained by proteolytic digestion revealed that both protein kinases A and G showed the abilities to phosphorylate the same serine hydroxyl groups in H1 and H2B histones. Both protein kinases reacted with Ser-38 in H1 histone. With H2B histone as substrate protein kinase A phosphorylated Ser-32 as well as Ser-36, whereas protein kinase G reacted preferentially with Ser-32 and the reaction with Ser-36 was very slow. H3 and H4 histones were practically inactive substrates for protein kinase G. Although H2A histone has not been analyzed, the evidence has raised a possibility that protein kinase G utilizes a portion of the substrate proteins for protein kinase A.

In an attempt to determine the role of protein (histone) kinases as mediators of corticotropin-induced corticosterone formation, the ability of homogenates, prepared from adrenals treated with various doses of corticotropin to catalyse the phosphorylation of calf thymus histones was measured. Although corticotropin promoted an increase in histone kinase activity, much more of the hormone was required to induce this response than to stimulate steroidogenesis maximally. In addition, a derivative, nitrophenylsulphenyl-corticotropin, which inhibits the stimulatory effect of corticotropin on cyclic AMP accumulation, stimulated corticosterone synthesis without altering histone kinase activity. Very high doses of nitrophenylsulphenyl-corticotropin were capable of stimulating histone kinase activity. In contrast, when dibutyryl cyclic AMP was used to stimulate steroidogenesis under the same conditions, any dose of the nucleotide which increased adrenal corticosteroid content also increased histone kinase activity. Assuming that histones serve as useful substrates for measurement of total adrenal protein kinase activity, the role of protein kinases as mediators of steroidogenesis is not supported by these studies.

The properties of purified mammalian adenosine 3':5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP)- and guanosine 3':5'-cyclic monophosphate (cGMP)-dependent protein kinases were compared. Several physical characteristics of the two enzymes were similar, including size, shape, affinity for cyclic nucleotide binding, and K(m) for ATP. In addition, the amino acid composition of the two proteins indicated a close composition homology (70-90%). Both cyclic nucleotide-dependent protein kinases catalyzed phosphorylation of rat liver pyruvate kinase (EC 2.7.1.40) and fructose 1,6-diphosphatase (EC 3.1.3.11), rabbit skeletal muscle glycogen synthase (EC 2.4.1.11) and phosphorylase b kinase (EC 2.7.1.38), and calf thymus histone H(2)b. The phosphorylation of several synthetic peptides and of trypsin-sensitive and trypsin-insensitive sites in glycogen synthase suggested similar recognition sites on the protein substrates for the two kinases. The cAMP-dependent protein kinase was the better catalyst with each protein or peptides substrate. The results suggest that the two enzymes evolved from a common ancestral protein.
