Proteolysis of the smooth muscle myosin-light-chain kinase with either thermolysin or endoproteinase Lys-C cleaves the enzyme towards the amino-terminus between the first and second unc domains, unc-II-1 and unc-II-2, and in the calmodulin-binding domain. The thermolytic fragment extends 532 residues from Ser275 to Ala806 and is resistant to further digestion. It is catalytically inactive and does not bind calmodulin. Further proteolysis of the thermolytic fragment with trypsin generates a constitutively active fragment. Digestion with endoproteinase Lys-C initially results in an inactive fragment of 516 residues, Ala287 to Lys802. Further digestion with Lys-C endoproteinase results in a constitutively active 474-residue fragment with the same amino-terminus, but a carboxyl-terminus at Lys760, near Arg762, the last conserved residue of protein kinase catalytic domains. There is no cleavage in the acidic-residue-rich connecting peptide between the amino-terminus of the catalytic domain and the unc-I domain, nor within the unc-II or unc-I domains or between the adjacent unc-II-2 and unc-I domains. The pattern of cleavages by these proteases reflects well the predicted domain structure of the myosin-light-chain kinase and further delineates the regulatory pseudosubstrate region. A synthetic peptide corresponding to the pseudosubstrate sequence, MLCK(787-807) was a more potent inhibitor by three orders of magnitude than the overlapping peptide MLCK(777-793) proposed by Ikebe et al. (1989) [Ikebe, M., Maruta, S. & Reardon, S. (1989) J. Biol. Chem. 264, 6967-6971] to be important in autoregulation of the myosin-light-chain kinase.

The E7 protein of human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV16) transforms cultured cells and cooperates with the ras or fos oncogenes in the transformation of primary cells. In this study we have investigated the phosphorylation of E7. When we immunoprecipitated E7 from CaSki cells with a rabbit polyclonal antiserum to a bacterial fusion protein (trpE-E7), we found that E7 was phosphorylated at serine residues contained in five characteristic thermolysin peptides. Immunoprecipitated E7, and fusion proteins harboring the E7 protein from various HPV types, could all be specifically phosphorylated in vitro by the ubiquitous, growth factor-activated casein kinase II (CKII). Comparative peptide mapping showed that the sites of in vivo and in vitro phosphorylation are the same. CKII was shown previously to specifically phosphorylate serine or threonine residues within a cluster of acidic amino acids. The E7 protein contains such a sequence between amino acids 30 and 37. When a synthetic peptide corresponding to this region of E7 was phosphorylated by CKII in vitro, its thermolysin digestion products were the same as those in the phosphorylated E7 protein. We conclude that E7 is phosphorylated in vivo only at serines within the predicted CKII site and that CKII, or a CKII-like enzyme, participates in the reaction. Both the E1A and SV40 large T proteins contain similar CKII consensus sites proximal to the regions required for their associations with the retinoblastoma gene product (p105Rb). Thus it is conceivable that CKII phosphorylation can modulate the interaction between the transforming proteins and the retinoblastoma gene product.

The effect of the proteases trypsin, thermolysin and papain on the cardiac membrane protein phospholamban was examined before or after phosphorylating the protein with the catalytic subunit of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. The sensitivity of phospholamban to digestion by trypsin and thermolysin was greatly reduced by phosphorylation, suggesting that phospholamban undergoes a conformational change upon phosphorylation. It is suggested that this change in conformation is the mechanism by which phospholamban phosphorylation relieves its inhibition of the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase pump.

Thymus myosin, light chains and a synthetic peptide (S-S-K-R-A-K-A-K-T-T-K-K-R-P-Q-R-A-T-S-N-V-F-S) corresponding to the N-terminal sequence of smooth muscle myosin light chains were compared as substrates for calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase (MLCK), calcium/phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (PKC), and a MgATP-activated protein kinase (H4PK) from lymphoid cells. All protein kinases catalyzed phosphorylation of the substrates although H4PK showed higher affinity for isolated light chains and the peptide. Phosphoamino acid analysis and analysis of thermolysin peptides established that PKC catalyzed phosphorylation of threonine-9 or 10. In addition, PKC and H4PK catalyzed phosphorylation at serine-19, the MLCK site. Collectively the data support the hypothesis that myosin filament assembly in nonmuscle cells may be regulated by a variety of calcium-dependent and calcium-independent protein kinases.

Most fish protamines contain two phosphorylatable sites both of which incorporate phosphate in vivo. Here we show that in two protamines (salmine A1 and clupeine Y1) the site more distant from the N-terminus (residues 20-21) is unaffected by cAMP-dependent protein kinase while it represents the main target for protein kinase C. Such a phosphorylation is typically independent of Ca2+ and phospholipids: responsiveness to these effectors however is conferred by previous fragmentation of protamine with thermolysin. These results suggest that Ca2+, phospholipid-independent phosphorylation of protamine by protein kinase C might have physiological relevance and shed light on the structural basis for the specificity of such an unique process.

The nicotinic acetylcholine receptor is a substrate for cAMP-dependent protein kinase both in vitro and in vivo. Recently, it has been demonstrated that phosphorylation of the nicotinic receptor by this kinase increases its rate of rapid desensitization. We now report the identification of the cAMP-dependent phosphorylation sites on the gamma and delta subunits. Two-dimensional phosphopeptide mapping of the phosphorylated gamma and delta subunits, after limit proteolysis with thermolysin, indicated that each subunit is phosphorylated on a single site. Phosphoamino acid analysis of the 32P-labeled subunits demonstrates that phosphorylation had occurred exclusively on serine residues. Purified phosphorylated subunits were cleaved with cyanogen bromide and the resultant phosphopeptides were purified by reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography. Shorter phosphopeptides, obtained by secondary digestion with trypsin, were purified and subjected to both automated gas-phase sequencing and manual Edman degradation. The results demonstrate that the gamma subunit was phosphorylated at Ser-353, contained within the sequence Arg-Arg-Ser(P)-Ser-Phe-Ile and that the delta subunit was phosphorylated at Ser-361, contained within the sequence Arg-Ser-Ser(P)-Ser-Val-Gay-Tyr-Ser-Lys. Determination of the sites phosphorylated within the structure of the gamma and delta subunits should contribute to the molecular characterization of the regulation of desensitization of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor by protein phosphorylation.

The major cAMP-binding proteins isolated from [35S]methionine-labeled S49 mouse lymphoma cells or MDBK bovine kidney cells correspond in isoelectric point and apparent molecular weight to the regulatory subunit (R) of type I cAMP-dependent protein kinase. These proteins were compared directly by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis of peptides generated either from native R with thermolysin and chymotrypsin or from denatured R with papain. Both the undigested proteins and all their major peptides were identical in charge and apparent molecular weights, indicating a very high degree of structural homology.

The 350-residue amino acid sequence of the catalytic subunit of bovine cardiac muscle adenosine cyclic 3',5'-phosphate dependent protein kinase is described. The protein has a molecular weight of 40 862, which includes an N-tetradecanoyl (myristyl) group blocking the NH2 terminus and phosphate groups at threonine-197 and serine-338. Seven methionyl bonds in the S-carboxymethylated protein were cleaved with cyanogen bromide to yield eight primary peptides. These fragments, and subpeptides generated by cleavage with trypsin, pepsin, chymotrypsin, thermolysin, and Myxobacter AL-1 protease II, were purified and analyzed to yield the majority of the sequence. The primary peptides were aligned by analyses of overlapping peptides, particularly of methione-containing tryptic peptides generated after in vitro [14C]methyl exchange labeling of methionyl residues in the intact protein.

6-Phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase from rat liver was phosphorylated by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase and [gamma-32P]ATP. Treatment of the 32P-labeled enzyme with thermolysin removed all of the radioactivity from the enzyme core and produced a single labeled peptide. The phosphopeptide was purified by ion exchange chromatography, gel filtration, and reverse phase high pressure liquid chromatography. The sequence of the 12-amino acid peptide was found to be Val-Leu-Gln-Arg-Arg-Arg-Gly-Ser(P)-Ser-Ile-Pro-Gln. Correlation of the extent of phosphorylation with activity showed that a 50% decrease in the ratio of kinase activity to bisphosphate activity occurred when only 0.25 mol of phosphate was incorporated per mol of enzyme subunit, and maximal changes occurred with 0.7 mol incorporated. The kinetics of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase-catalyzed phosphorylation of the native bifunctional enzyme was compared with that of other rat liver protein substrates. The Km for 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2, 6-bisphosphatase (10 microM) was less than that for rat liver pyruvate kinase (39 microM), fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (222 microM), and 6- phosphofructose -1-kinase (230 microM). Comparison of the initial rate of phosphorylation of a number of protein substrates of the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase revealed that only skeletal muscle phosphorylase kinase was phosphorylated more rapidly than the bifunctional enzyme. Skeletal muscle glycogen synthase, heart regulatory subunit of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, and liver pyruvate kinase were phosphorylated at rates nearly equal to that of 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2, 6-bisphosphatase, while phosphorylation of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase and 6-phosphofructo-1-kinase was barely detectable. Phosphorylation of 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase was not catalyzed by any other protein kinase tested. These results are consistent with a primary role of the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase in regulation of the enzyme in intact liver.

Postsynaptic membranes from the electric organ of Torpedo californica, rich in the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor, were shown to contain an endogenous tyrosine protein kinase. This endogenous kinase phosphorylated three major proteins with molecular masses corresponding to 50 kDa, 60 kDa, and 65 kDa. The phosphorylation of these three proteins occurred exclusively on tyrosine residues under the experimental conditions used and was abolished by 0.1% Nonidet P-40 and stimulated by Mn2+. The 50-kDa, and 60-kDa, and 65-kDa phosphoproteins were demonstrated to be the beta, gamma, and delta subunits, respectively, of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor by purification of the phosphorylated receptor using affinity chromatography. The endogenous tyrosine kinase specifically phosphorylated the beta, gamma, and delta subunits rapidly to a final stoichiometry of approximately equal to 0.5 mol of phosphate per mol of sub-unit. Two-dimensional phosphopeptide mapping of the phosphorylated beta, gamma, and delta subunits, after limit proteolysis with trypsin or thermolysin, indicated that each subunit was phosphorylated on a single site. Locations are proposed for the amino acid residues phosphorylated on the receptor by the tyrosine-specific protein kinase and by two other protein kinases (cAMP-dependent protein kinase and protein kinase C) which phosphorylate the receptor.
