A complementary DNA (cDNA) clone that encodes phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase (PI 4-kinase) was isolated from a rat brain cDNA library. The deduced amino acid sequence of 697 residues revealed that the protein contains two putative transmembrane sequences and that the N-terminal part of the protein has several sequences representing potential phosphorylation sites for cAMP- and calmodulin-dependent kinase. The C-terminal region is probably a phosphotransferase domain homologous to the kinase region of protein kinase family proteins. Specific antibody against the protein expressed in Escherichia coli successfully immunoprecipitated rat brain PI 4-kinase. The messenger RNA for PI 4-kinase was found predominantly in brain and rat neural cell lines. This PI kinase may play a specific role in neural signal transduction.

The plasma membrane Ca2+ pump ATPase from porcine aorta was isolated by the calmodulin affinity chromatographic method of Kosk-Kosicka et al. (Kosk-Kosicka, D., Scaillet, S., and Inesi, G. (1986) J. Biol. Chem. 261, 3333-3338). Its activity was restored by adding either phosphatidylcholine or phosphatidylserine. Cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinase (G-kinase) stimulated the enzyme in a concentration-dependent manner. However, phosphatidylinositol kinase (PI-kinase) activity was not detected in the enzyme preparation, and the presence of phosphatidylinositol was not necessary for stimulation by G-kinase. Furthermore, adenosine, a potent PI-kinase inhibitor, did not affect the stimulation. The enzyme preparation contained three major proteins, with molecular masses of 240, 145, and 135 kDa, as assessed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The 240- and 135-kDa proteins were phosphorylated in association with the stimulation by G-kinase, but only the phosphorylation of the 240-kDa protein was dependent on the G-kinase concentration. A purified enzyme without the 240-kDa protein, prepared by our previous method (Imai, S., Yoshida, Y., and Sun, H.-T. (1990) J. Biochem. (Tokyo) 107, 755-761), was not activated by G-kinase. Immunoblotting with an antibody against the human erythrocyte Ca2+ pump revealed that the 135-kDa protein corresponded to one of the isoforms of the plasma membrane Ca2+ pump. These results suggest that the phosphorylation of the 240-kDa protein is responsible for stimulation of the plasma membrane Ca2+ pump ATPase by G-kinase.

Phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PIP) kinase (E.C. 2.7.1.68) has been purified about 1200-fold from rat liver plasma membranes, taking advantage of affinity chromatography on quercetin-Sepharose as a novel step. The purified PIP kinase showed no contamination by the following enzyme activities: phosphatidylinositol (PI) kinase (EC 2.7.1.67), protein kinase C (EC 2.7.1.-), diacylglycerol kinase (EC 2.7.1.-), phospholipase C (EC 3.1.4.11), protein-tyrosine kinase (EC 2.7.1.112), alkaline phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.1), triphosphoinositide phosphomonoesterase (EC 3.1.3.36), adenylate kinase (EC 2.7.4.3) and cAMP-dependent protein kinase (EC 2.7.1.37). The liver membrane enzyme requires high Mg2+ concentrations with a KM value of 10 mM. Ca2+ or Mn2+ could replace Mg2+ to a certain, though small, extent. Apparent KM values with respect to PIP and ATP were 10 and 65 microM, respectively. GTP was slightly utilized by the kinase as phosphate donor while CTP was not. Quercetin inhibited the enzyme with Ki = 34 microM. Extending our previous observations (Urumow, T. and Wieland, O.H. (1986) FEBS Lett. 207, 253-257 and Urumow, T. and Wieland, O.H. (1988) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 972, 232-238) [gamma S]pppG still stimulated the PIP kinase in extracts of solubilized liver membranes. 20-40% (NH4)2SO4 precipitation of the membrane extracts yielded a fraction that contained the bulk of enzyme activity but did not respond to stimulation by [gamma S]pppG any longer. This was restored by recombination with a protein fraction collected at 40-70% (NH4)2SO4 saturation, presumably containing a GTP binding protein and/or some other factor separated from the PIP kinase. In the reconstituted system [gamma S]pppG stimulated PIP kinase in a concentration dependent manner with maximal activation at 5 microM. This effect was not mimicked by [gamma S]pppA and was blocked by [beta S]ppG. These results strongly support our view that in liver membranes PIP kinase is regulated by a G-protein.

The effect of polyoma middle-sized tumor antigen (MTAg) on phosphatidylinositol metabolism has been characterized in vivo and in vitro using polyoma-transformed and polyoma-infected cells. Cells infected with transformation-competent polyoma virus exhibit increased levels of inositol phospholipids and the second messenger inositol trisphosphate. MTAg or pp60c-src immunoprecipitates from MTAg-transformed cells contain an activity that phosphorylates phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate. This activity is induced in parallel with MTAg when the MTAg synthesis is regulated by hormonal or heavy metal inducers. Immunoprecipitates from one class of polyoma mutants defective in transformation have a reduced level of associated phosphatidylinositol kinase activity in vitro yet are capable of tyrosine phosphorylation on exogenous protein substrates at rates comparable to wild-type virus. Thus, for these mutants, phosphatidylinositol kinase activity is more tightly correlated with transformation than is protein kinase activity. These results suggest that alterations in phosphatidylinositol metabolism by MTAg play a role in transformation by polyoma virus.

We have constructed a recombinant murine retrovirus which efficiently transduces avian pp60c-src into murine cells and which is easily rescued from infected cells in plasmid form. To characterize the virus, several randomly selected NIH 3T3 lines were isolated after infection with recombinant retroviral stocks. All lines overproduced avian pp60c-src and appeared morphologically normal. Immunoprecipitates made from these lines with antisera specific for pp60c-src were tested for their kinase activities in vitro. We find that both autokinase and enolase kinase activities increase proportionately with the level of pp60c-src in the immunoprecipitates. To further test the authenticity of the pp60c-src encoded by the retroviral vector, these analyses were repeated in the presence of polyomavirus middle T antigen. Avian pp60c-src was activated as a protein kinase, indicating that the virally encoded pp60c-src interacts normally with middle T antigen. Interestingly, by increasing the intracellular levels of pp60c-src 15-fold over normal endogenous levels, we were unable to obtain a proportionate increase in the amount of middle-T-antigen-pp60c-src complex. Finally, using the shuttle features designed into the vector, we have isolated the first fully processed cDNA encoding functional avian pp60c-src X pp60c-src synthesized in vitro with this cDNA had intrinsic protein kinase activity and no detectable phosphatidylinositol kinase activity.

The effects of ergosterol, yeast's natural sterol, on cell cycling and a protein kinase antigenically related to pp60v-src were examined in a sterol auxotroph of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Sterol-depleted cells accumulate in an unbudded, G1 state. Cell budding and proliferation are reinitiated upon addition of nonlimiting ergosterol or cholesterol with trace ergosterol, whereas cholesterol or trace ergosterol alone is less effective. Stimulation of a protein kinase associated with immune complexes of yeast protein and anti-pp60v-src shows a positive correlation with exit from the G1 phase following ergosterol addition. Ergosterol-stimulated cells also demonstrate an increase in phosphatidylinositol kinase activity. The data suggest that hormonal levels of ergosterol (effective concentration, approximately equal to 1 nM) participate in a signaling process associated with a protein kinase possibly involved in yeast cell cycle control.

In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, cAMP-dependent phosphorylation plays an essential role at the start of the cell cycle. It has also recently been demonstrated that the breakdown of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate to inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and diacylglycerol is a requisite process for cell proliferation (Uno, I., Fukami, K., Kato, H., Takenawa, T., and Ishikawa, T. (1988) Nature 333, 188-190). To clarify the relationship between the cAMP- and inositol phospholipid-mediated signal transduction systems, alterations in the inositol phospholipid metabolism of cAMP mutants were examined. The incorporation of [32P]Pi into phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PIP) and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) was markedly reduced in ras2, which produces low levels of cAMP, and increased in bcy1, which produces cAMP-independent protein kinase. The incorporation of [32P]Pi into ATP and phosphatidylinositol (PI) was almost the same in wild type, ras1, ras2, and bcy1 yeast strains. The addition of exogenous cAMP to cyr1-2 caused a tremendous increase in [32P]Pi incorporation into PIP and PIP2 without any effect on incorporation into ATP and PI, suggesting that cAMP plays an important role in polyphosphoinositide synthesis. We therefore examined the activities of PI and PIP kinases, the enzymes that catalyze the sequential steps from PI to PIP2 via PIP. The activities of both kinases were found to be very low in the membranes of cry1-2 and ras2 but very high in the membranes of bcy1 and ras1 ras2 bcy1 strain cells. The addition of cAMP to cyr1-2 cells caused the activation of PI and PIP kinases. Furthermore, the treatment of membranes with cAMP or dibutyryl cAMP caused the activation of PI kinase in wild type, ras1, cry1-2, and ras2 strains, but not in bcy1 strain cells. The effect was most prominent in membranes from cyr1-2 and ras2 cells. These results show that cAMP-dependent phosphorylation enhances polyphosphoinositide synthesis through activation of PI and PIP kinase, an effect which may lead to the enhanced production of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and diacylglycerol.

Legionella micdadei, a pathogen which enters into host phagocyte phagolysosomal structures, contains at least two protein kinases. We have purified to homogeneity the predominant, nucleotide-independent protein kinase and examined its ability to catalyze the transfer of phosphate from ATP to acceptors in human neutrophils. The L. micdadei protein kinase catalyzed the phosphorylation of proteins of 11.5, 14, 19, 23, 28, 34, and 38 kilodaltons (kDa) present in a Triton X-100 extract of neutrophil membranes and of 11.5, 13.5, 25, and 38 kDa in the neutrophil cytosol. Tubulin was a good substrate for the L. micdadei protein kinase in vitro. The bacterial kinase also catalyzed the phosphorylation of phosphatidylinositol (PI) at about half the rate at which histones were phosphorylated; phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate (PIP) was not phosphorylated by the kinase. The PI kinase activity of the L. micdadei enzyme was optimum at pH 7.0, and the divalent cation requirement was satisfied best by Mg2+ and Ca2+. The maximum rate of PI phosphorylation was obtained with 0.6 mM PI; in the presence of MgCl2 (10 mM), the Km for PI was 0.9 mM and the Km for ATP was 1.5 mM. The detergents octyl-beta-D-glucoside (10 to 20 mM) and Triton X-100 (0.5%) stimulated kinase activity twofold when PI was the phosphate acceptor; however, only octyl glucoside stimulated histone kinase activity. Various membrane phospholipids inhibited PI kinase activity. The most potent phospholipid inhibitor was the product of the PI kinase reaction, PIP, which at a 0.6 mM concentration inhibited both PI and tubulin phosphorylation by 80%. The inhibition of kinase activity by PIP when histone served as the acceptor was noncompetitive in character. The L. micdadei kinase also phosphorylated PI in intact. (3H)inositol-labeled neutrophils. The PI kinase and histone kinase activities of teh L. micdadei kinase copurified and cofucused (pI, 5.8) when subjected to isoelectric focusing, suggesting that the two enzymatic activities reside in a single protein.

We have assayed immunoprecipitates of several oncogene products from retrovirally infected chicken embryo fibroblasts (CEF) for phosphatidylinositol (PI) kinase activity. Immunoprecipitates of P68gag-ros, P130gag-tps, P47gag-crk, polyoma middle T (mT)-p60c-src complex, and mT-p62c-yrs complex exhibited PI kinase activity when assayed without detergents. This activity was sensitive to the nonionic detergent, Triton X-100, and the product was indistinguishable from phosphatidylinositol-3-phosphate, the product of kinase type I. Immunoprecipitates of p21Ha-ros protein did not contain any PI kinase type I activity. It has been suggested that an 81 kD protein phosphorylated in in vitro kinase assays of immunoprecipitates from mT-transformed rodent cells is responsible for the PI kinase type I activity seen in these immunoprecipitates. We have detected a chicken homologue of this 81 kD protein in immunoprecipitates of lysates from mT-transformed CEF. However, the chicken 81 kD protein sedimented more quickly than the PI kinase activity in sucrose gradients. In addition, the 81 kD protein was not detectable in protein kinase assays of immunoprecipitates of P68gag-ros or P130gag-fps. These results suggest that the 81 kD protein may not be the PI kinase.

The effects of growth phase and carbon source on membrane-associated phosphatidylinositol kinase in cell extracts of Saccharomyces cerevisiae were examined. Phosphatidylinositol kinase activity increased 2- and 2.5-fold in glucose- and glycerol-grown cells, respectively, in the stationary phase as compared with the exponential phase of growth. The increase in phosphatidylinositol kinase activity in the stationary phase of growth correlated with an increase in the relative amounts of phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate, the product of the reaction. The increase in phosphatidylinositol kinase activity was not due to the presence of water-soluble effector molecules in cell extracts as indicated by mixing experiments. Phosphatidylinositol kinase activity decreased in cell extracts of exponential-phase cells preincubated under phosphorylation conditions which favor cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase activity. Phosphatidylinositol kinase activity was not affected in cell extracts of stationary-phase cells preincubated under phosphorylation conditions.
