Hexokinase 1 (HK1) purified from rat brain exhibits protein kinase activity, including autophosphorylation and phosphorylation of histone H2A. This protein kinase activity is observed only in the absence of the HK1 carbohydrate substrate, glucose. Analysis of the ATP-binding domains of the mammalian HK1 protein sequences shows significant homology with other mammalian protein kinases.

Hexokinase 1 (HK1) purified from rat brain exhibits protein kinase activity, including autophosphorylation and phosphorylation of other protein substrates. The amino acid specificity of rat brain autophosphorylation was analyzed with monoclonal antibodies directed against phosphotyrosine and by acid hydrolysis of the phosphorylated enzyme. The results show that serine, threonine, and tyrosine residues are phosphorylated after incubation with ATP. The stoichiometry of this phosphorylation was 0.2 mole phosphate per mole hexokinase after 30 min of incubation. Evaluation of freshly isolated HK1 with monoclonal anti-phosphotyrosine antibody indicates that the enzyme is phosphorylated at a basal level in its native state. We concluded that rat brain HK1 is a dual specificity protein kinase that is phosphorylated physiologically.

The regulation of tissue transglutaminase (TG2) activity by the GPCR family is poorly understood. In this study, we investigated the modulation of TG2 activity by the A1 adenosine receptor in cardiomyocyte-like H9c2 cells. H9c2 cells were lysed following stimulation with the A1 adenosine receptor agonist N(6)-cyclopentyladenosine (CPA). Transglutaminase activity was determined using an amine incorporating and a protein cross linking assay. TG2 phosphorylation was assessed via immunoprecipitation and Western blotting. The role of TG2 in A1 adenosine receptor-induced cytoprotection was investigated by monitoring hypoxia-induced cell death. CPA induced time and concentration-dependent increases in amine incorporating and protein crosslinking activity of TG2. CPA-induced increases in TG2 activity were attenuated by the TG2 inhibitors Z-DON and R283. Responses to CPA were blocked by PKC (Ro 31-8220), MEK1/2 (PD 98059), p38 MAPK (SB 203580) and JNK1/2 (SP 600125) inhibitors and by removal of extracellular Ca(2+). CPA triggered robust increases in the levels of TG2-associated phosphoserine and phosphothreonine, which were attenuated by PKC, MEK1/2 and JNK1/2 inhibitors. Fluorescence microscopy revealed TG2-mediated biotin-X-cadaverine incorporation into proteins and proteomic analysis identified known (Histone H4) and novel (Hexokinase 1) protein substrates for TG2. CPA pre-treatment reversed hypoxia-induced LDH release and decreases in MTT reduction. TG2 inhibitors R283 and Z-DON attenuated A1 adenosine receptor-induced cytoprotection. TG2 activity was stimulated by the A1 adenosine receptor in H9c2 cells via a multi protein kinase dependent pathway. These results suggest a role for TG2 in A1 adenosine receptor-induced cytoprotection.
