The phosphorylation of spectrin polypeptide 2 is thought to be involved in the metabolically dependent regulation of red cell shape and deformability. Spectrin phosphorylation is not affected by cAMP. The reaction in isolated membranes resembles the cAMP-independent, salt-stimulated phosphorylation of an exogenous substrate, casein, by enzyme(s) present both in isolated membranes and cytoplasmic extracts. Spectrin kinase is selectively eluted from membranes by 0.5 M NaCl and co-fractionates with eluted casein kinase. Phosphorylation of band 3 in the membrane is inhibited by salt, but the band 3 kinase is otherwise indistinguishable operationally from spectrin kinase. The membrane-bound casein (spectrin) kinase is not eluted efficiently with spectrin at low ionic strength; about 80% of the activity is apparently bound at sites (perhaps on or near band 3) other than spectrin. Partitioning of casein kinase between cytoplasm and membrane is metabolically dependent; the proportion of casein kinase on the membrane can range from 25% to 75%, but for fresh cells is normally about 40%. Dephosphorylation of phosphorylated spectrin has not been studied intensively. Slow release of 32Pi from [32P] spectrin on the membrane can be demonstrated, but phosphatase activity measured against solubilized [32P] spectrin is concentrated in the cytoplasm. The crude cytoplasmic phosphospectrin phosphatase is inhibited by various anions--notably, ATP and 2,3-DPG at physiological concentrations. Regulation of spectrin phosphorylation in intact cells has not been studied. We speculate that spectrin phosphorylation state may be regulated 1) by metabolic intermediates and other internal chemical signals that modulate kinase and phosphatase activities per se or determine their intracellular localization and 2) by membrane deformation that alters enzyme-spectrin interaction locally. Progress in the isolation and characterization of spectrin kinase and phosphospectrin phosphatase should lead to the resolution of major questions raised by previous work: the relationships between membrane-bound and cytoplasmic forms of the enzymes, the nature of their physical interactions with the membrane, and the regulation of their activities in defined cell-free systems.

We have shown that nuclei isolated by two methods contain grossly different amounts of cyclic AMP-dependent histone kinase activity. Repeated washing of the isolated nuclei with a low ionic strength buffer removed the majority of the cyclic AMP-dependent histone kinase and cyclic AMP binding activity. Nuclear cyclic AMP-dependent histone kinase activity accounted for only 0.42% of the total cytoplasmic enzyme activity. Similarly, the lactate dehydrogenase activity associated with liver nuclei represented only 0.07% of the total cytoplasmic activity. The isolated liver nuclei contained only 0.27% of the total homogenate glutamate dehydrogenase activity and 1.7%of the total homogenate glucose-6-phosphatase activity. The cyclic AMP-dependent histone kinase behaves as a cytoplasmic rather than a nuclear enzyme. We have also shown that using crude extracts, one can achieve separation of the two nuclear casein kinases, NI and NII, on sucrose density gradients in the presence of 0.5M NaCl. Nuclear casein kinases NI and NII had sedimentation coefficients of 3.0 and 593 S, respectively, in the presence of 0.5 M NaCl. Under conditions of low ionic strength, all of the casein kinase activity in the crude nuclear extract sedimented as one peak with a seminentation coefficient of 7.3 S. The aggregation-disaggregation which occurred in the crude extract was reversible and was mainly due to the aggregative and disaggregative properties of casein kinase NII. The two nuclear casein kinases have different affinities for chromatin. When nuclei were disrupted in a hypotonic solution and extracted with a buffercontaining 0.14 M NaCl, casein kinase NII could be completely extracted from the viscous nuclear material. Although a significant amount of casein kinase NI was extracted by the buffer containing 0.14 M NaCl, re-extraction of the nuclear material with a buffer containing 0.5 M NaCl yielded substantial amounts of casein kinase NI, and a final extraction with a buffer containing 1.0 M NaCl yielded measurable amounts of casein kinase NI. No casein kinase NII activity could be detected in the 0.5 M and 1.0M NaCl extracts.

1. Cell-free lysates of human peripheral blood lymphocytes contained two casein kinase activities and two histone kinase activities, which could be separated by chromatography on DEAE-Sephadex. 2. Neither of the casein kinase activities were stimulated by cyclic AMP. The major activity was eluted from DEAE-Sephadex between 0.4 and 0.45M-KCl, had a molecular weight of approx. 130,000 (sucrose density gradients) and was stimulated by KCl (maximum 150mM). It also formed higher-molecular-weight aggregates when centrifuged in sucrose gradients containing 150mM-KCl. The minor activity was not retained by DEAE-Sephadex, had a molecular weight of approx. 50,000 and was not stimulated by KCl. 3. The major histone kinase activity was stimulated by cyclic AMP and was eluted from the DEAE-Sephadex column between 0.05 and 0.2M-KCl. The other activity was not stimulated by cyclic AMP and was insensitive to the rabbit muscle protein kinase inhibitor. 4. Evidence was obtained suggesting that the lymphocyte casein kinases were located primarily in the nuclei.

Rabbit renal cortex was found to contain three types of glycogen synthase kinase (GSK). Cylic AMP-dependent protein kinase (GSK-C) accounted for only a small fraction of the total GSK activity. The predominant type of GSK (GSK-P) could be adsorbed to phosphocellulose, but not to DEAE cellulose. The other major type (GSK-D) could be adsorbed to DEAE cellulose and exhibited several peaks when eluted with a linear NaC1 gradient. GSK-P and GSK-D were not affected by cyclic AMP or by the heat-stable protein inhibitor of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. This suggests that cyclic AMP-independent mechanisms may play a major role in regulation of GSK. Neither GSK-P nor GSK-D were associated with the major peak of histone, kinase, casein kinase, protamine kinase or phosvitin kinase. Therefore it cannot be assumed that these protein kinase activities can be used to monitor GSK activity.

Cyclic adenosine 3'5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP)-dependent and -independent protein kinases were detected and partially characterized in soluble extracts from mouse epidermis. Cylic AMP-dependent histone kinase activity was separated rom cyclic AMP-independent casein kinase activity by DEAE-Sephadex chromatography. The application of the tumor promoters croton oil or 12-o-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate to mouse skin caused a rapid increase in the soluble protein extractable from the epidermis resulting in a decrease in the specific activity of both classes of protein kinase when expressed on a protein basis. No change in the activities of either the cyclic AMP-dependent or -independent enzymes was observed when expressed relative to the DNA content.

The protein kinase activity of a 10,000 g supernatant of purified human lymphocytes can be resolved by DEAE-cellulose chromatography into six protein kinase fractions: three of them phosphorylate casein preferentially, and three histones. The same procedure with the corresponding nuclear fraction yields only two casein kinases. All these fractions, except one casein kinase of the cytosol, have been studied with respect to protein and nucleotide specificity, effect of salts and of cyclic nucleotides, sedimentation, etc. The results obtained indicate that the enzyme fractions of the cytosol have distinct characteristics, suggesting that they are different protein kinases, and that the nuclear kinases are similar to the two main casein kinases of the cytosol.

Both cytosol and membranes of human erythrocytes display protein kinase activity towards exogenous protein substrates such as casein, phosvitin and histones. The histone kinase activity, unlike casein kinase, of both cytosol and membranes is increased by cyclic AMP. The protein kinase forms removed from the membranes with 0.7 M NaCl, phosphorylate only serine residues of both casein and histones through a mechanism cyclic AMP-independent. The protein kinase activity located in the cytosol (hemolysate) is due also to enzyme forms phosphorylating both serine and threonine residues of casein, in addition to forms phosphorylating only serine residues of casein and histones. Also the cytosol kinase forms, once partially purified by Sepharose 6B filtration, appear to be cyclic AMP-independent.

Thyroxine control of cAMP-independent histone and casein phosphokinase activities was studied in thyroidectomized rats treated with thyroxine. All activities were evaluated in the presence of a thermostable inhibitor of cAMP-dependent enzymes. Cytosol enzymes can be resolved by sucrose gradient ultracentrifugation into three peaks of histone kinase activity (3.2S, 5S and 7.2S) and two peaks of casein kinases (3.6S and 7.1S). Neither thyroidectomy nor subsequent treatment of operated animals with thyroxine modifies the total histone kinase activity estimated, either in total cytosol or after its fractionation by the sucrose gradient ultracentrifugation. The activity ratios of different peaks were, however, changed. Casein kinase activity was significantly decreased after thyroidectomy (about 50%). Subsequent treatment with thyroxine restored this activity to its initial value. Sucrose gradient ultracentrifugation analysis showed that thyroxine action on the casein kinase activity is very specific. Only molecules that sediment in the 9S region were significantly stimulated by the hormone. Cortisol action on the casein kinase activity was studied in adrenalectomized animals treated with hormone for 24 h. Cortisol decreases the total casein kinase activity by about 30%. Sucrose gradient ultracentrifugation analysis showed that the population of molecules sedimenting at about 9S was the most sensitive to cortisol. The above data show that both thyroxine and cortisol control, in a selective way, the activities of cAMP-independent protein kinases. The same kinase molecules can be under double control by two different hormones that have opposite effects.

Phosphorylation by a cAMP-independent rat liver protein kinase of protein substrates containing the structural feature required by mammary gland casein kinase (-Ser-X-Glu/Asp) has been demonstrated. In particular, the Bowman-Birk Soybean trypsin inhibitor, which is characterized, like other legume protease inhibitors, by clusters of acidic residues near the C-terminal side of seryl residue(s), proved to be a good model substrate for the protein kinase. Its phosphorylation, involving the Ser 65 residue, is apparently hindered by the binding of trypsin, while it is stimulated by unfolding induced by reduction and subsequent carboxy-methylation.

Cyclic AMP dependent and independent protein kinase activities are present in membrane as well as cytosol of human erythrocyte. Red cell membrane contains at least: 1) a cAMP dependent histone kinase type I using ATP as phosphoryl donor; 2) a cAMP independent casein kinase using ATP or GTP as phosphoryl donor; this kinase probably phosphorylates erythrocyte spectrin. In lysate of human red cell there are two or three cAMP dependent protein kinase type I and II and one cAMP independent casein kinase. Characteristics of these protein kinase activities are reviewed. Membrane substrates are numbered taking in account that the activity assays are often of dubious value. Several phosphorylation abnormalities previously reported in hematologic and non-hematologic disorders are still uncertain and at present time not any red cell protein kinase deficiency has been demonstrated.
