In Xenopus oocytes ribosomal protein S6 becomes phosphorylated on serine residues in response to hormones or growth factors and following microinjection of the tyrosine-specific protein kinases associated with Rous sarcoma virus or Abelson murine leukemia virus. To begin characterization of the enzymes responsible for S6 phosphorylation in this system, we have undertaken the purification of S6 protein kinases from unfertilized Xenopus eggs. DEAE-Sephacel chromatography of crude extracts revealed two peaks of S6 kinase activity, and the peak eluting at 160 mM NaCl was chosen for further purification. Successive chromatography on Mono S, Sephacryl S-200, Mono Q, and heparin-Sepharose resulted in purification of the enzyme to a single protein migrating at Mr = 92,000 on polyacrylamide gels. The final preparation was purified about 500-fold from the DEAE-Sephacel peak with a recovery of 10%. Apparent Km values of the enzyme for ATP and 40 S subunits were 28 and 5 microM, respectively, and the specific activity with 330 microM ATP and 5.6 microM 40 S subunits was 300 nmol/min/mg. The enzyme was inhibited by beta-glycerophosphate, sodium fluoride, potassium phosphate, ADP, heparin, quercetin, and spermine. The availability of a purified S6 protein kinase should facilitate elucidation of the molecular mechanism of S6 phosphorylation during growth stimulation.

Stimulation of exocytosis in exocrine glands is associated with an increased phosphorylation of several particulate proteins. Irrespective of the type of secretagogue (cAMP-dependent agonists, calcium-dependent agonists, calcium ionophores, phorbol esters) exocytosis is always accompanied by an enhanced phosphorylation of the ribosomal protein S6. It is shown by an analysis of the phosphopeptide pattern of the in vivo and the in vitro phosphorylated S6 protein that the protein kinase responsible for phosphorylation of the S6 protein during enhanced exocytosis is protein kinase C. This is so irrespective of whether the agonist uses cAMP or calcium as second messenger. Experiments with isolated guinea pig parotid gland lobules reveal that not only the acetylcholine analog carbamoylcholine, but also the beta-agonist isoproterenol lead within seconds to an increased formation of diacylglycerol. As diacylglycerol increases the affinity of protein kinase C for calcium this finding would explain why the phosphorylation pattern of the S6 protein reflects activation of protein kinase C also under conditions where (as in the case of stimulation with beta-agonists) cAMP is the primary second messenger. It would further explain why the changes of the phosphorylation of individual histones observed during agonist-induced exocytosis in the parotid gland are quite similar for isoproterenol on one hand and carbamoylcholine on the other. A 22 K protein which becomes phosphorylated only when cAMP serves as second messenger is located in the membrane of the endoplasmic reticulum. A possible relationship of this protein with the calcium transport ATPase of the endoplasmic reticulum is under investigation.

In previous studies, we described a soluble Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase which is the major Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent microtubule-associated protein 2 (MAP-2) kinase in rat brain [Schulman, H. (1984) J. Cell Biol. 99, 11-19; Kuret, J. A., & Schulman, H. (1984) Biochemistry 23, 5495-5504]. We now demonstrate that this protein kinase has broad substrate specificity. Consistent with a multifunctional role in cellular physiology, we show that in vitro the enzyme can phosphorylate numerous substrates of both neuronal and nonneuronal origin including vimentin, ribosomal protein S6, synapsin I, glycogen synthase, and myosin light chains. We have used MAP-2 to purify the enzyme from rat lung and show that the brain and lung kinases have nearly indistinguishable physical and biochemical properties. A Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase was also detected in rat heart, rat spleen, and in the ring ganglia of the marine mollusk Aplysia californica. Partially purified MAP-2 kinase from each of these three sources displayed endogenous phosphorylation of a 54 000-dalton protein. Phosphopeptide analysis reveals a striking homology between this phosphoprotein and the 53 000-dalton autophosphorylated subunit of the major rat brain Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase. The enzymes phosphorylated MAP-2, synapsin I, and vimentin at peptides that are identical with those phosphorylated by the rat brain kinase. This enzyme may be a multifunctional Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase with a widespread distribution in nature which mediates some of the effects of Ca2+ on microtubules, intermediate filaments, and other cellular constituents in brain and other tissues.

The changes in the degree of phosphorylation of ribosomal protein S6 during the life cycle of the aquatic fungus Blastocladiella emersonii were analyzed by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. Three phosphorylated derivatives of S6 are present throughout the entire life cycle. However, under certain germination conditions, more highly phosphorylated derivatives of S6 appear. Nonetheless, the resumption of protein synthesis that occurs during germination is not dependent on those highly phosphorylated derivatives of S6. The pattern and sites of phosphorylation of S6 labelled in vivo with [32P]orthophosphate have been compared with those of 40S ribosomal subunit labelled in vitro by partially purified protein kinases. Three major phosphopeptides were found in S6 isolated from the zoospore, while six phosphopeptides were found after zoospore germination (in germling cells). The phosphopeptide patterns of S6 phosphorylated by the cAMP-dependent protein kinase and by casein kinases I and II were completely distinct. Only the cAMP-dependent protein kinase gives rise to a phosphopeptide found in 32P-labelled cells, indicating that one of sites phosphorylated in vivo is also phosphorylated in vitro by the cAMP-dependent protein kinase.

A rat brain polyribosomal protein with an apparent Mr of 30 000, designated pp30, was further characterized. The protein was identified by its phosphorylation by an endogenous protein kinase sensitive to both corticotropin and spermine. Two-dimensional separation of a polyribosomal fraction was applied, combining non-equilibrium pH-gradient-gel electrophoresis in the first and sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis in the second dimension. In this system, pp30 was separated into at least five defined phosphoprotein spots. Pulse-labelling with [gamma-32P]ATP followed by a chase for various time periods with excess unlabelled ATP resulted in a shift of the distribution of radioactivity and protein staining along the spots towards the anode. This suggests that the various spots of pp30 may represent multiple phosphorylation states. Limited proteolysis of the five spots with three different proteinases resulted in the same one-dimensional peptide maps with a given proteinase, indicating that all five spots represent different forms of a single phosphoprotein. Inhibition of the overall phosphorylation of pp30 by corticotropin or spermine was accompanied by a shift in the recovery of labelled phosphate towards spots nearer the cathode. Immunoblotting with monoclonal antibodies directed against ribosomal protein S6 stained only one band, a protein that had an apparent Mr of 34 000 and was clearly distinct from pp30.

Insulin stimulates fatty acid synthesis in white and brown fat cells as well as in liver and mammary tissue. Hormones that increase cellular cyclic AMP concentrations inhibit fatty acid synthesis, at least in white adipose tissue and liver. These changes in fatty acid synthesis occur within minutes. In white fat cells, they are brought about not only by changes in glucose transport but also changes in the activities of pyruvate kinase, pyruvate dehydrogenase and acetyl-CoA carboxylase. The basis of the alterations in pyruvate kinase activity in fat cells is not understood. Unlike the liver isoenzyme, the isoenzyme present in fat cells does not appear to be phosphorylated either in the absence or presence of hormones. The changes in pyruvate dehydrogenase activity in fat cells are undoubtedly due to changes in phosphorylation of the alpha subunits. Insulin appears to act by causing the parallel dephosphorylation of all three sites. The persistence of the effect of insulin during the preparation and subsequent incubation of mitochondria has allowed the demonstration that insulin acts mainly by stimulating pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatase rather than inhibiting the kinase. Acetyl-CoA carboxylase within fat cells is phosphorylated on a number of different sites. The exposure of cells to insulin leads to activation of the enzyme and this is associated with increased phosphorylation of a specific site on the enzyme. Exposure to adrenalin, which results in a marked diminution in activity, also causes a small increase in the overall level of phosphorylation, but this increase is due to an enhanced phosphorylation of different sites; probably those phosphorylated by cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase. Acetyl-CoA carboxylase is one of a number of proteins in fat cells that exhibit increased phosphorylation with insulin. Others include ATP-citrate lyase, the ribosomal protein S6, the beta subunit of the insulin receptor and a heat and acid stable protein of Mr 22000. Changes in phosphorylation of ATP-citrate lyase do not appear to result in any appreciable changes in catalytic activity. A central aspect of insulin action may be the activation and perhaps release of a membrane-associated protein kinase. Plasma membranes from fat cells have been shown to contain a cyclic-nucleotide-independent kinase able to phosphorylate and activate acetyl-CoA carboxylase. Furthermore, high-speed supernatant fractions from cells previously exposed to insulin contain elevated levels of the same or similar kinase activity capable of phosphorylating both ATP-citrate lyase and acetyl-CoA carboxylase.

Nerve growth factor (NGF), epidermal growth factor (EGF), insulin, cholera toxin (CT) and cAMP all stimulate the phosphorylation of proteins in the PC12 nerve-like cell line. NGF, CT and cAMP enhance phosphorylation of the same set of proteins including tyrosine hydroxylase, ribosomal protein S6, histones H1 and H3, and the nonhistone chromosomal and cytoplasmic high mobility group (HMG) 17 protein, and reduce phosphorylation of H2A. EGF but not insulin enhances the phosphorylation of tyrosine hydroxylase. Insulin but not EGF enhances the phosphorylation of histone H3 and decreases the phosphorylation of H2A. EGFD and insulin each enhance phosphorylations of both ribosomal protein S6 and histone H1, but neither hormone induces phosphorylation of HMG 17. The extent of these effects depends upon the ligand concentration and is half-maximal at physiological concentrations of the hormones (beta-NGF, 2 ng/ml; EGF, 1 ng/ml. insulin, 0.5 microunits/ml). Maximal effects of NGF are seen within 15 min and persist even after 3 days of culture in the presence of NGF. When phosphorylation of ribosomal protein S6 is maximally stimulated by NGF, no further stimulation can be achieved by adding saturating quantities of either cAMP or CT. However, simultaneous addition of saturating quantities of NGF and either EGF or insulin results in an enhancement of phosphorylation that is equal to the sum of that achieved when the two ligands are added separately. These results suggest that the enhanced phosphorylation of S6 achieved by NGF or cAMP occurs through a common mechanism which differs from those which mediate EGF or insulin-enhanced phosphorylation. The data also provide strong evidence that the action of NGF included protein phosphorylation mediated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase. The phosphorylation of each of these proteins in response to NGF may play an important role in NGF action.

Stimulation of secretion in exocrine cells is associated with the incorporation of up to 3 to 4 phosphates into the ribosomal protein S6. This occurs with secretagogues involving either cAMP or free calcium as second messenger. An analysis of the phosphorylation pattern of S6 from stimulated guinea pig parotid glands reveals 3 phosphopeptides (termed A,B,C). The phosphopeptide pattern was identical for cAMP- or calcium-mediated stimulation, whereas phosphorylation of the S6 protein in vitro with catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase resulted only in the formation of phosphopeptides A and C. Therefore, secretagogue-mediated phosphorylation is not or not exclusively catalyzed by cAMP-dependent protein kinase even when cAMP is the second messenger.

Particulate preparations from insulin-treated 3T3-L1 cells retain the enhanced ability to incorporate 32P from [gamma-32P]ATP into ribosomal protein S6 (Smith, C. J., Rubin, C. S., and Rosen, O. M. (1980) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 77, 2641-2645). A cyclic AMP-independent protein kinase that phosphorylates S6 and casein and that may be involved in the increase in S6 phosphorylation produced by insulin has been isolated based upon the observation that there is 1.5-3.0-fold higher activity in particulate preparations derived from insulin-treated cells than there is in comparable preparations from control cells. The enzyme activity was purified 2071-fold by KCl extraction, phosphocellulose chromatography, and gel filtration. The S6 phosphorylating activity was also characterized by its behavior on casein-Sepharose and DEAE-cellulose chromatography and its sedimentation in glycerol gradients. None of these procedures resolved the S6 and casein kinase activities. Some of the properties of this kinase, including a molecular weight of about 35,000, inhibition by F- or phosphate, chromatography on DEAE-cellulose and phosphocellulose, and insensitivity to inhibition by GTP, are similar to those of a previously described enzyme, casein kinase I (Dahmus, M. E. (1981) J. Biol. Chem. 256, 3319-3325; Hathaway, G. M., and Traugh, J. A. (1979) J. Biol. Chem. 254, 762-768).

Soluble extracts from serum- or epidermal growth factor-stimulated Swiss 3T3 cells show up to a 25-fold increase in their ability to phosphorylate 40 S ribosomal protein S6. The increased S6 phosphorylation is due to increased protein kinase activity in extracts of stimulated cells and not due to the inactivation of an S6 phosphatase. However, the presence of phosphatase inhibitors as well as EGTA is required during the preparation of cell extracts to obtain fully active S6 kinase(s). Epidermal growth factor has little effect at concentrations below 10(-10) M: activity increases sharply at 10(-9) M epidermal growth factor and reaches saturation at 10(-8) M (50-60% of the activity obtained by stimulating with 10% serum). Activation of the kinase activity in cell extracts is observed as early as 2 min after serum stimulation, reaches 50% between 10 and 15 min, and is maximal by 60 min of serum stimulation. Phosphorylation in vitro of ribosomal protein S6 with extracts from serum-stimulated cells followed by analysis of the tryptic phosphopeptides shows the presence of 9 of the 11 phosphopeptides induced by serum in vivo.
