Three different types of protein kinases (ATP: protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37) were isolated and partially purified from a mouse plasmacytoma microsomal KCl wash fraction, then chromatographed on DEAE cellulose and phosphocellulose. The three protein kinase activities designated by protein kinase I, II and III were characterized with respect to their capacity to utilize [gamma-32P]ATP and [gamma-32P]GTP, to interact with cyclic AMP, stimulation by cyclic AMP, substrate specificity and sedimentation behaviour on glycerol gradient centrifugation. Protein kinase I was found to be cyclic AMP dependent and preferentially phosphorylated histones. Protein kinase II and III were insensitive to cyclic AMP, protein kinase II preferentially phosphorylated histones and the protein(s) of a ribosomal KCl wash fraction eluted from DEAE cellulose between 0.2 and 0.35 M KCl and termed "PPx". Protein kinase III phosphorylated casein and ribosomal proteins to a great extent. Studies with glycerol density gradient centrifugation indicated that protein kinase I sediments as a component of about 4.4 S, protein kinase II of 4.3 S and protein kinase III of 3 S. Chromatography on phosphocellulose of the protein kinases isolated from purified free polysomes showed the same type of protein kinases as those from microsomes. So it appears unlikely that protein kinase I and II were contaminants from the cytosol.

A specific ribosome-associated protein kinase (protein kinase II) and phosphoprotein(s) from the ribosomal KCl wash fraction termed "PPx" have been isolated from plasmacytoma, and tested for their ability to bind to poly(A) and to different plasmacytoma polynucleotides. The nitrocellulose filter binding technique was used to measure RNA-protein interaction. Protein kinase II and PPx preferentially bound mRNA compared to poly(A). They did not bind ribosomal RNA, soluble RNA or DNA. The optimal conditions (temperature, time, protein concentration, ionic strength) for mRNA-protein interaction were determined. Ribosomal protein kinase (protein kinase II) phosphorylated PPx proteins which bound to mRNA represented at least two bands as determined by sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (Mr = 90 000 and 80 000). The high affinity of protein kinase II and PPx for mRNA suggests that they may function in regulating protein synthesis.

The events in interleukin-6 (IL-6) signal transduction leading to primary response gene activation were analyzed in murine B-cell hybridoma and plasmacytoma cells which require IL-6 for growth. IL-6 stimulation of IL-6-deprived cells resulted in the rapid and transient tyrosine phosphorylation of a 160-kDa cellular protein (p160). This was followed by the highly selective induction of two primary response genes, junB/AP-1 transcription factor and TIS11. junB and TIS11 inductions were unaffected by cycloheximide, suggesting that posttranslational modifications accounted for their activation. Activation of junB and TIS11 transcription required rapid tyrosine kinase activity as well as a different protein kinase activity sensitive to the potent kinase inhibitor, H7, and activated following p160 tyrosine phosphorylation. This H7-sensitive kinase appears to be distinct from any well-characterized protein kinase-second messenger system. On the basis of these findings, we propose that IL-6-induced signal transduction proceeds through a novel protein kinase cascade which activates junB and TIS11 gene transcription.

The mos oncogene present in Moloney murine sarcoma virus is one of the oldest known oncogenes, yet the identification of its biochemical function both in transformation and as a cellular proto-oncogene has been elusive. Only recently have low levels of c-mos transcripts been detected in a specific group of mouse tissues. The c-mos gene is implicated in tumorigenicity by its activation by the insertion of the intracisternal A particle genome in a mouse plasmacytoma. The murine c-mos gene is capable of oncogenic transformation when placed under the regulatory control of a long terminal repeat. The acquisition of the v-mos gene generated the transformation-competent Moloney murine sarcoma virus and several related strains. Myeloproliferative sarcoma virus is unique among the v-mos containing viruses in its ability to induce splenic foci and myeloproliferation in vivo in addition to the transformation of fibroblasts. The v-mos gene product, termed p37mos, is a cytoplasmic protein recently shown to possess serine kinase activity in immune complexes. Autophosphorylation of the mos gene product is not necessary for its biological activity as exemplified by the protein HT1-MSV which lacks phosphoserine residues. A transcriptional regulatory property has been attributed to the v-mos gene product during infection, which may play an essential role in subsequent transformation.

A cAMP-independent protein kinase which phosphorylates histone H1 to a high level and which may correspond to the mitotic H1 kinase has been partially purified and characterized from mouse plasmacytoma microsomes [Quirin-Stricker, C., and Schmitt, M. (1981) Eur. J. Biochem. 118, 165-172]. The present study compares the microsome-associated and the chromatin-associated histone H1 kinases isolated from mouse plasmacytoma cells. The results indicate that the two H1 kinases are indistinguishable by several criteria. The molecular structure of the microsome-associated histone H1 kinase has been determined (a) by exclusion chromatography on Ultrogel, (b) by electrophoresis in non-denaturing polyacrylamide gels of graded porosity and (c) by sodium dodecyl sulfate/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the H1 kinase activity peak from an AcA-34 Ultrogel column. All these techniques gave the same result: H1 kinase may exist in a native form as a monomeric enzyme with an apparent relative molecular mass of 90 000 +/- 8000.

A protein kinase with high specificity for histone H1 was purified from a plasmacytoma microsomal fraction by a high-salt wash, ammonium sulfate precipitation, chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, hydroxyapatite and Sephadex G-200 columns, and the main properties of this kinase were studied. A sulfhydryl compound, such as 2-mercaptoethanol or dithiothreitol, was necessary for full activity. The optimum pH was 7.4-7.8. After purification, the histone H1 kinase was not stimulated by cAMP or cGMP. It was not inhibited by the heat-stable cAMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitor from beef heart. It utilized preferentially GTP over ATP as phosphate donor. Km values for ATP and GTP were 58 microM and 1.4 microM respectively; the Km for histone H1 was 14 microgram ml-1. The molecular weight was approximately 90 000 by gel-exclusion chromatography. Analysis of the purified H1-specific protein kinase by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in dodecylsulfate showed two bands having molecular weights of approximately 64 000 and 54 000. Many characteristics of this kinase were similar to those of the chromatin-bound protein kinase reported by other workers in rapidly proliferating cells.

A protein kinase activity with high specificity for histone H1 was isolated from mouse plasmacytoma, Morris hepatoma and normal mouse liver and compared by ion exchange chromatography after DEAE-cellulose, hydroxylapatite and Sephadex G-200 chromatography. This cAMP-independent histone H1 kinase is not affected by the heat-stable cAMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitor. It has the following particular properties: it prefers GTP to ATP as substrate and was found to be present with a great activity only in neoplastic tissues. No phosphatase activity was detected in the partially purified histone H1 kinase fraction from normal and neoplastic cells. These results suggest either an increase amount of histone H1 kinase and/or of its activator in neoplastic cells, or the presence of a strong inhibitor in normal cells. This histone H1 kinase appears to be analogous to the chromatin bound kinase which phosphorylates histone H1 at the NH2 and COOH terminal regions. We might suggest an implication of this kinase in the regulation of cell division.

In free messenger ribonucleoprotein particles (mRNP) and polysomes from plasmacytoma cells, a phosphorylated protein/protein kinase system has been characterized by a combination of oligo(dT)-cellulose chromatography and CsCl isopycnic gradient centrifugation. The presence phosphorylated in vivo has been detected in both types of particles. Endogenous protein phosphorylation occurs in vitro by particle-associated cAMP-independent protein kinase(s) using [gamma-32P]ATP and [gamma-32P]GTP. These kinases are sensitive to hemin action. Analysis of mRNP proteins by gel electrophoresis and autoradiography showed strong analogies between the phosphorylation patterns obtained in vivo and in vitro, suggesting a substrate specificity for the associated enzymes. The phosphorylated proteins have been compared to initiation factors and ribosomal proteins. We have partially purified the cAMP-independent protein kinase activities responsible for the endogenous phosphorylation in free mRNP and polysomes; two activities were identified in free mRNP whereas three activities were found to be associated with polysomes.

Osteoclast-mediated bone resorption plays a crucial role in osseous remodeling. Osteoblasts are important regulators of this activity, in part through their ability to produce osteoclast-regulating soluble factors such as interleukin-6 (IL-6). IL-11 is a newly appreciated pleotropic cytokine whose spectrum of biological activities overlaps with that of IL-6. As a result, we hypothesized that osteoblasts are an important skeletal source of this cytokine. To test this hypothesis, we characterized the IL-11 production of unstimulated and stimulated SaOS-2 human osteosarcoma cells. Unstimulated cells produced modest amounts of IL-11. The osteotropic agents recombinant IL-1 (0.25-5 ng/ml), transforming growth factor-beta 1 (0.1-10 ng/ml), PTH (10(-8)-10(-11) M), and PTH-related peptide ((10(-8)-10-11 M) further increased SaOS-2 cell IL-11 protein production and messenger RNA accumulation. These stimulatory effects were dose and time dependent, and the IL-11 that was produced was bioactive, as demonstrated by its ability to stimulate the proliferation of T10D plasmacytoma cells. The protein kinase-C activator, 12-O-Tetra-decanoylphorbol 13-acetate, and a variety of cAMP agonists [forskolin, prostaglandin E1, prostaglandin E2, and (Bu)2AMP] also stimulated osteoblast IL-11 protein production and messenger RNA accumulation. In contrast, recombinant IL-4, recombinant interferon-gamma, and endotoxin did not stimulate SaOS-2 cells in a similar fashion. Importantly, the ability to produce IL-11 was not a unique property of SaOS-2 cells, because primary human trabecular bone osteoblasts also produced significant amounts of bioactive IL-11 when stimulated with transforming growth factor-beta 1. These studies demonstrate that appropriately stimulated human osteoblasts and osteoblast-like cells are potent producers of IL-11 and suggest that osteoblast-derived IL-11 may be an important component of the cytokine network mediating osteoblast-osteoclast communication in normal and pathological bone remodeling.

Plasma cell tumor induction in mice by pristane is under multigenic control. BALB/c mice are susceptible to tumor development; whereas DBA/2 mice are resistant. Restriction fragment length polymorphisms between BALB/c and DBA/2 for Cdkn2a(p16) and Cdkn2b(p15), and between BALB/c and Mus spretus for Cdkn2c(p18(INK4c)) were used to position these loci with respect to the Pctr1 locus. These cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) inhibitors mapped to a 6 cM interval of chromosome 4 between Ifna and Tal1. C.D2-Chr 4 congenic strains harboring DBA/2 alleles associated with the Pctr1 locus contained DBA/2 "resistant" alleles of the CDK4/CDK6 inhibitors p16 and p15. On sequencing p16 and p18 cDNAs, two different allelic variants within ankyrin repeat regions of p16 were found between BALB/c and DBA/2 mice. By using an assay involving PCR amplification and restriction enzyme digestion, allelic variants were typed among several inbred strains of mice. One of the variants, G232A, was specific to two inbred strains, BALB/cAn and ABP/Le, of mice and occurred in a highly conserved amino acid in both human and rat p16. When tested with wild-type (DBA/2) p16, both A134C and G232A BALB/c-specific variants of p16 were inefficient in their ability to inhibit the activity of cyclin D2/CDK4 in kinase assays with retinoblastoma protein, suggesting this defective, inherited allele plays an important role in the genetic susceptibility of BALB/c mice for plasmacytoma induction and that p16(INK4a) is a strong candidate for the Pctr1 locus.
