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.

Phenylalanine hydroxylase [phenylalanine 4-monooxygenase; EC 1.14.16.1; L-phenylalanine, tetrahydropteridine:oxygen oxidoreductase(4-hydroxylating)] isolated from rat liver is a phosphoprotein containing approximately 0.31 mumol of protein-bound phosphate per mumol of subunit (50,000 molecular weight). When the enzyme is further phosphorylated in the presence of ATP and a 3'5'-cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase (EC 2.7.1.37; ATP:protein phsophotransferase), an additional 0.7 mumol of phosphate per mumol of subunit is introduced, bringing the total phosphate content up to about 1 mumol/mumol of subunit. This phosphorylation of the enzyme in vitro is accompanied by a 2.6-fold increase in hydroxylase activity when the activity is assayed in the presence of tetrahydrobiopterin. Partial proteolytic digestion of phenylalanine hydroxylase, which previously had been shown to activate the enzyme 20- to 50-fold [Fisher, D.B. & Kaufman, S. (1973) J. Biol. Chem. 248, 4345-4353], removes almost all of the phosphate from the enzyme.

The association of an RNA-dependent RNA polymerase activity with virions of pike fry rhabdovirus has been demonstrated by both in vitro and in vivo studies. The temperature optimum for the in vitro assay is around 20 C, although enzyme activity can be observed at 4 C. Preparations of pike fry virus possess a glycoprotein, a membrane protein, a nucleoprotein, an L protein, and a phosphoprotein, as well as an RNA of about 3.8 times 10-6 mol wt. A protein kinase activity has been found associated with virus preparations. In vitro RNA product analyses indicate that the virus-associated enzyme functions principally as a transcriptase synthesizing viral-complementary, heteropolymeric RNA.

Normal oocyte maturation depends on signal transmission between granulosa cells and the oocyte. We have analysed the effects of inhibiting (I) cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase A, PK-A), (II) Ca2+/phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase C, PK-C) and (III) calmodulin (CaM) on pig oocyte maturation in vitro, protein synthesis and phosphorylation. The inhibition of PK-A using a specific inhibitor H8, decreased the maturation rate (rate of germinal vesicle breakdown, GVBD) of cumulus-enclosed pig oocytes in a dose-dependent manner by approximately 12%, reaching a plateau at 100 microM. The inhibition of PK-C with H7, an inhibitor with some side-effects on PK-A, decreased the maturation rate of cumulus-enclosed oocytes in a dose-dependent manner to a maximum of 20% at a concentration of 100 microM. The calmodulin antagonist W7 up to a concentration of 200 microM had no effects on maturation of cumulus-enclosed pig oocytes. None of the inhibitors (H7, H8 and W7) altered the patterns of protein synthesis of either pig oocytes and cumulus cells after maturation in vitro. Oocyte phosphoprotein patterns were, however, clearly changed by W7. Cumulus cell protein phosphorylation patterns were changed by all 3 agents. Since inhibition of cyclic AMP and Ca2+ phospholipid pathways by PK-A and PK-C blocking chemicals affected only a limited proportion of oocytes (12 and 20%, respectively) and inhibition of Ca2+ binding to CaM was without effect on oocyte maturation, we conclude that these pathways modulate rather than regulate oocyte maturation in the pig.

The phosphoprotein (P) and the large protein (L) constitute the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase of vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV). We show that phosphate-free P protein expressed in bacteria is transcriptionally inactive when reconstituted with L protein and viral N-RNA template free of cellular protein kinase. Phosphorylation of P protein by a cellular kinase(s) was essential for transcription as well as for further phosphorylation by an L-associated kinase, the two kinases acting in a sequential (cascade) manner. Phosphate groups introduced by cell kinase were stable, whereas those due to L kinase underwent a turnover which was coupled to ongoing transcription. We present a model for the phosphorylation pathway of P protein and propose that continued phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of P protein may represent a transcriptional regulatory (on-off) switch of nonsegmented negative-strand RNA viruses.

The cytoplasmic domain of the cloned erythropoietin (EPO) receptor (EPOR) contains no protein kinase motif, yet addition of EPO to EPO-responsive cells causes an increase in protein-tyrosine phosphorylation. Here we show that addition of EPO or interleukin-3 (IL-3) to an IL-3-dependent cell line expressing the wild-type EPOR causes a small fraction (less than 5%) of total cellular EPOR to shift in gel mobility from 66 to 72 kDa, due at least in part to phosphorylation. Using biotinylated EPO as an affinity reagent, we show that the 72-kDa species is greatly enriched on the cell surface. To demonstrate that a protein kinase activity associates with cell surface EPOR, cells were incubated with biotinylated EPO and then cross-linked with a thiol-cleavable chemical cross-linker. The avidin-agarose-selected complexes were incubated with [gamma-32P]ATP. After in vitro phosphorylation and denaturation without reducing agent, both antiphosphotyrosine and anti-EPOR antibodies immunoprecipitated labeled 72-kDa EPOR and an unidentified 130-kDa phosphoprotein (pp130), indicating that a protein kinase is associated with cell surface EPOR and that a fraction of the EPOR was phosphorylated on tyrosine residues either in the cells or during the cell-free phosphorylation reaction. Under reducing conditions, the 72-kDa phosphorylated EPOR but not pp130 was immunoprecipitated with an anti-EPOR antibody, suggesting that the pp130 is bound to the EPOR by the thiol-cleavable chemical cross-linker. Previously, we showed that deletion of the 42 carboxy-terminal amino acids of the EPOR allows cells to grow in 1/10 the normal EPO concentration, without affecting receptor number or affinity. Two carboxy-terminal truncated EPO receptors that are hyperresponsive to EPO were poorly phosphorylated during the in vitro reaction, suggesting that the carboxy-terminal region of the EPOR contains a site for phosphorylation or a site for interaction with a protein kinase. Our data suggests that phosphorylation or interaction with a protein kinase in the carboxy-terminal region may down-modulate the proliferative action of the EPOR.

The relationship between the 22-24 kDa cyclic AMP (cAMP)-dependent phosphoprotein previously described as being involved in the regulation of human platelet membrane Ca2+ transport and a GTP-binding protein of low molecular mass (ras-like protein) was investigated. After isolation of plasma membranes and intracellular membranes, it was found that guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (GTP[S]) bound to plasma membrane proteins ranging in molecular mass from 22 to 29 kDa, but not to intracellular membranes. The major GTP-binding protein appeared as a 24 kDa protein under reduced conditions and a 22 kDa protein under non-reduced conditions. A similar membrane location and electrophoretic mobility were found for both the cAMP phosphoprotein and the protein recognized by a specific anti-rap1 antibody. The identity between the cAMP phosphoprotein and the rap1 GTP-binding protein was further examined by studying the functional effect of GTP on plasma membrane Ca2+ transport. A maximal GTP[S] concentration of 40 microM was found to: (1) inhibit to the same degree (40%) both Ca(2+)-ATPase activity and the Ca2+ transport function mediated by the Ca(2+)-ATPase; (2) inhibit the phosphorylation of the 22-24 kDa protein by the catalytic subunit of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase (C.Sub.); and (3) abolish the stimulation of Ca2+ uptake induced by C.Sub. It is concluded that the platelet cAMP phosphoprotein is indeed the rap1 GTP-binding protein, and that it regulates plasma membrane Ca2+ transport, thus providing evidence for a new role of a ras-related protein.

Previous studies have shown that activators of protein kinase C (C kinase) produce synaptic potentiation in the hippocampus. For example, the C kinase activator phorbol dibutyrate has been shown to increase transmitter release in the hippocampus. In addition, a role for C kinase in long-term potentiation has been proposed. A common assumption in such studies has been that substrates for C kinase were responsible for producing these forms of synaptic potentiation. However, we have recently shown that phorbol dibutyrate increased the phosphorylated of synapsin II (formerly protein III, Browning et al., 1987) in chromaffin cells (Haycock et al., 1988). Synapsin II is a synaptic vesicle-associated phosphoprotein that is a very poor substrate for C kinase but an excellent substrate for cAMP-dependent and Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase. We felt, therefore, that activation of C kinase might lead to activation of a kinase cascade. Thus effects of C kinase activation might be produced via the phosphorylation of proteins that are not substrates for C kinase. In this report we test the hypothesis that activators of C kinase increase the phosphorylation of synapsin II and an homologous protein synapsin I. Our data indicate that PdBu produced dose-dependent increases in the phosphorylation of synapsin I and synapsin II. We also performed phospho-site analysis of synapsin I using limited proteolysis. These studies indicated that PdBu increased the phosphorylation of multiple sites on synapsin I. These sites have previously been shown to be phosphorylated by both cAMP-dependent protein kinase and the multifunctional Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

The Ca(2+)- and calmodulin-dependent protein phosphatase calcineurin is inhibited by the immunosuppressant drug cyclosporin A in the presence of cyclophilin A or B. Of the two isoforms, cyclophilin B is more potent by a factor of 2-5 when either the phosphoprotein [32P]casein or the [32P]phosphoserine [Ser(32P)] form of the 19-residue bovine cardiac cAMP-dependent protein kinase regulatory subunit peptide RII, [Ser(32P)15]RII, is used as substrate. With [Ser(32P15]RII as substrate, the concentrations of the cyclosporin A.cyclophilin A and cyclosporin A.cyclophilin B complexes, which cause 50% inhibition of calcineurin activity, are 120 and 50 nM, respectively. Lowering the concentration of calcineurin 80% with [32P]casein as substrate lowered the apparent inhibition constant for each complex even further; 50% inhibition of calcineurin was observed at 40 nM for cyclosporin A.cyclophilin A, whereas it was less than 10 nM for cyclosporin A.cyclophilin B. In all inhibition assays with [32P]casein or [Ser(32P)15]RII, the concentration of calcineurin required for measurable phosphatase activity is such that these complexes behave as tight-binding inhibitors of calcineurin, and steady-state kinetics cannot be used to assess inhibition patterns or Ki values. Limited trypsinization of calcineurin produces a fragment that is still inhibited, indicating that the interaction of cyclosporin.cyclophilin with calcineurin does not require either calmodulin or Ca2+.

The decatenation activity of DNA topoisomerase II is essential for viability as eukaryotic cells traverse mitosis. Phosphorylation has been shown to stimulate topoisomerase II activity in vitro. Here we show that topoisomerase II is a phosphoprotein in yeast and that the level of incorporated phosphate is significantly higher at mitosis than in G1. Comparison of tryptic phosphopeptide maps reveals that the major phosphorylation sites in vivo are targets for casein kinase II. Incorporation of phosphate into topoisomerase II is nearly undetectable at the non-permissive temperature in a conditional casein kinase II mutant. The sites modified by casein kinase II are located in the extreme C-terminal domain of topoisomerase II. This domain is absent in prokaryotic and highly divergent among eukaryotic type II topoisomerases, and may serve to regulate functions of topoisomerase II that are unique to eukaryotic cells.
