Light density membranes derived from the "microsomal" fraction of rat skeletal muscle contained an endogenous protein kinase which catalyzed the phosphorylation of an endogenous membrane substrate. No other membrane fraction contained any significant protein kinase activity. The optimal specific activity of the enzyme in these membranes was 350 pmol/mg/min. The endogenous muscle membrane protein kinase required magnesium, was stimulated by micromolar concentrations of calcium, had a pH optimum between 7.0 and 7.5, and demonstrated a K-m for ATP of 2.6 times 10 minus 5 M. The enzyme was markedly heat labile and demonstrated a linear Arrhenius plot with an apparent energy of activation of 12,100 cal/mol. There was no stimulation by cyclic nucleotides; and neither monovalent cations nor various neurotransmitters exerted any effect. It is presently unclear where the membranes exhibiting protein phosphorylation are localized within the muscle fiber. Enzyme markers suggest that these membranes are not derived from sarcolemma or sarcoplasmic reticulum but may originate in transverse tubules. The membrane phosphorylation was largely confined to a polypeptide with an apparent molecular weight of 28,000. Phosphorylation could also be detected in a lower molecular weight substrate as well as two polypeptides with apparent molecular weights of 95,000 and 56,000. The M-r-28,000 endogenous protein kinase substrate was isolated by preparative gel electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulfate. High voltage electrophoresis of a partial acid hydrolysate of the phosphorylated M-r-28,000 substrate identified the phosphate bond to be that of phosphoserine. The amino acid composition of the substrate was neither strongly acidic nor basic. It had a high content of glycine, glutamic acid, serine, and lysine. Hydrophobic residues constituted only 45% of the total composition. Following muscle denervation for 10 days, there was a significant decrease in the amount of the M-r-28,000 polypeptide as well as the extent of phosphorylation.

The phosphorylation of purified protein synthesis factors catalyzed by protein kinase preparations isolated from interferon-treated human amnion cells was examined. Ribosomal salt-wash fractions prepared from interferon-treated human cells contained a protein kinase that catalyzed the [gamma-(32)P]ATP-mediated phosphorylation of the 38,000-dalton subunit of eukaryotic initiation factor 2 (eIF-2alpha); this kinase activity was significantly enhanced in interferon-treated as compared to untreated cells. The tryptic [(32)P]phosphopeptide pattern obtained for eIF-2alpha phosphorylated by the interferon-mediated human kinase was indistinguishable from the pattern obtained for eIF-2alpha phosphorylated by the hemin-regulated rabbit reticulocyte kinase when analyzed by thin-layer chromatography with three different solvent systems and by high-voltage electrophoresis. O-[(32)P]Phosphoserine was liberated by partial acid hydrolysis from eIF-2alpha phosphorylated by either the human or the rabbit kinase. In addition to the phosphorylation of eIF-2alpha, interferon treatment of human cells enhanced the phosphorylation of two additional ribosome-associated proteins designated P(1) and P(f). The major phosphoester linkage observed for the human, as well as murine, phosphoprotein P(1) was O-phosphoserine. The interferon-mediated phosphorylation of both eIF-2alpha and protein P(1) was dependent upon the presence of RNA with double-stranded character; P(f) phosphorylation was not affected by double-stranded RNA. These results suggest that the interferon-mediated ribosome-associated human protein kinase catalyzes the phosphorylation of eIF-2alpha in a site-specific manner that is apparently identical with the reaction catalyzed by the hemin-regulated rabbit reticulocyte kinase; hence, the phosphorylation of eIF-2 may play a role in regulating the initiation of translation in interferon-treated cells.

Crude ribosomes from Saccharomyces cerevisiae cultures were phosphorylated in vitro when incubated in the presence of [gamma-32P]ATP. Analysis of the ribosomal proteins with two-dimensional electrophoresis revealed that of the 29 proteins identified in the small subunit, only protein S6 was phosphorylated. Of the 37 proteins identified in the large subunit, one was highly phosphorylated (L3) and two only slightly phosphorylated (L11 and L14). The protein kinase activity associated with the ribosomes was extracted with 1 M KCl and was not dependent on adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate; it preferentially phosphorylated casein and phosvitin, but was less active on histones. Structural ribosomal proteins were also phosphorylated in vivo when the yeast cultures were incubated with [32P]orthophosphate; the radioactivity resistant to hydrolysis by hot perchloric acid was incorporated into the proteins of the two subunits. Radioactive phosphoserine was found by subjecting hydrolysates of ribosomal proteins to high-voltage electrophoresis. After two-dimensional electrophoresis, one poorly phosphorylated protein (S10) was identified in the small subunit. In the large subunit, one protein (L3) was highly labelled, and two proteins (L11 and L24) only slightly labelled.

When vaccinia-virus-infected cells were labeled with radioactive phosphate in the absence of viral gene expression an additional phosphoprotein, containing phosphoserine, was found specifically associated with the ribosomes. The phosphoprotein was removed from the ribosomes following a 0.5 M KCl washing or after EDTA treatment. This additional phosphoprotein was found in infected cells after either a long (3-4 h) or a short (30 min) labeling period; it was detected when the infected cells were incubated in the presence or absence of an inhibitor of RNA or protein synthesis. This phosphoprotein originated from the phosphorylation of vaccinia virion structural protein VP11b (Mr 11,000) at a specific site since only a single major phosphopeptide was obtained after trypsin digestion. This phosphoprotein was also present in purified vaccinia virions labeled with radioactive phosphate. VP11b protein was phosphorylated in vitro by the protein kinase associated with the cores. When the reaction was carried out at an alkaline pH the phosphorylation in vitro occurred at different sites in the protein; at neutral pH the phosphorylation of VP11b was more specific and, as judged by tryptic peptide analysis, occurred mainly at the same site as in the phosphorylation in vivo. A role for the involvement of phosphoprotein VP11b in the establishment of the shut off of host protein synthesis by vaccinia virus is suggested.

A cyclic AMP-dependent nuclear protein kinase was found to be closely associated with rat liver nucleolar RNA polymerase I throughout most of its purification. This protein kinase was purified to near homogeneity. It exhibits a number of unusual catalytic properties, including the inability to utilize Mn2+ when RNA polymerase is the substrate and the ability to phosphorylate both acidic and basic substrates. Phosphorylation of RNA polymerase I by this protein kinase results in the formation of phosphoester bonds characteristic of phosphoserine and phosphothreonine. Radioautography of polyacrylamide-gel electrophoretograms of the phosphorylated RNA polymerase I revealed that the 32P was located primarily on enzyme subunits SA1, SA3, SA5, and SA6 [nomenclature of Kedinger, Gissinger & Chambon (1974) Eur. J. Biochem, 44, 421-436].

Platelet tubulin isolated by two successive cycles of polymerization-depolymerization was shown to contain protein kinase activity. The phosphorylating activity measured by incorporation of [32P]phosphate from [gamma-32P]ATP was cAMP-independent and behaved with respect to substrate specificity, cation requirement, and maximum incorporation of phosphate similarly to tubulin of brain. Contrary to tubulin from that source, however, platelet tubulin itself, not one of its co-purifying proteins appeared to be the source of the protein kinase activity. This was suggested by assays of tubulin freed from its associated proteins by chromatography on DEAE-Sephadex and on immunosorbent columns containing monospecific antibody to human platelet tubulin. Further corroboration was obtained from experiments in which tubulin was applied to casein affinity columns. No separation of protein kinase from colchicine binding activity could be obtained. Gel filtration showed that all of the in vitro phosphorylated tubulin was aggregated. Tryptic peptide patterns of 32P-labeled alpha- and beta-tubulin subunits were analyzed by ion exchange chromatography. Multiple peptides in both tubulin subunits were identified as acceptors of [32P]phosphate. In vivo phosphorylated tubulin was demonstrated to contain an average of 5 phosphoserine residues/monomer.

1. The phosphorylation of troponin T from rabbit white sketetal muscle is catalysed by phosphorylase kinase, but not at a significant rate by bovine 3':5'-cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. 2. The amino acid sequences adjacent to the three major phosphorylation sites of troponin T were determined. 3. The serine in the N-terminal peptide (Asx,SerP, Glx)Glu-Val-Glu, is that phosphorylated (SerP, phosphoserine) when the troponin complex is isolated. 4. The other two sites of phosphorylation are located in the sequence Ala-Leu-(Ser, SerP)-Met-Gly-Ala-Asn-Tyr(Ser,SerP)Tyr. 5. When troponin T is phosphorylated in the presence of troponin C, the extent of phosphorylation at each site is considerably decreased. 6. CNBr fragments of troponin T are also phosphorylated by phosphorylase kinase, but the rate of phosphorylation at each site in the CNBr fragments is considerably slower than in the native protein. 7. From these studies it is suggested that troponin C interacts with troponin T in the region containing the two closely situated phosphorylation sites.

Both cytosol and mitochondria of rat liver display protein kinase activity, cyclic AMP-independent, which is resolved by Sepharose 6B filtration and P-cellulose chromatography into multiple forms phosphorylating, besides endogenous mitochondrial membrane-bound proteins, also exogenous phosphoproteins such as casein and phosvitin. However, the forms by far predominant in the cytosol phosphorylate both phosphorylserine and phosphorylthreonine residues of casein, while most of the activity associated to mitochondrial structures is due to the forms phosphorylating only phosphorylserine residues.

Some structural features required for the enzymatic phosphorylation of phosvitin by purified rat liver cytosol phosvitin kinase have been investigated by testing the activity of such an enzyme toward phosphopeptides differing in size and chemical composition, obtained by pronase or acid hydrolysis of phosvitin. The results obtained can be summarized as follows: (a) Phosvitin kinase phosphorylates even fairly simple phosphopeptides (mol.wt 1000-2000) at rates comparable with intact phosvitin. (b) Acetylation of both phosvitin and pronase phosphopeptides completely prevents their phosphorylation indicating that some lysine residues are strictly required for the phosvitin kinase reaction. (c) Accordingly polyphosphorylserine blocks Ser(P)n which are very actively phosphorylated in phosvitin and pronase phosphopeptides, do not undergo any more enzymatic phosphorylation once isolated as such in a form free of other amino acids. (d) The activity of phosvitin kinase toward substrates probably devoid of Ser(P)n blocks suggests that there are not required for the protein kinase reaction. However, they apparently enhance the phosphorylation rate of the peptide substrates, likely by making easier their binding to the enzyme. It is proposed therefore that the peptidic unit able to undergo phosphorylation by rat liver cytosol phosvitin kinase consists of one or more phosphorylserine residues having in their close proximity a lysine residue playing a critical role in the mechanism of transphosphorylation.

The capacity of partially purified rat muscle protein kinase coupled to cyanogen-bromide-activated Sepharose 4B to (radio-)phosphorylate proteins in vitro was evaluated using histones from calf thymus and rat liver and certain proteins as substrates. Data are presented which point to a low substrate specificity of this enzyme. It is demonstrated that even within a short time period histones are efficiently phosphorylated without the introduction of contaminating (phospho-)proteins. Therebye phosphoserine residues are formed. The phosphorylation reaction usually performed at 30 degrees C is shown to function quite efficiently also at 4 degrees C. It proceeds even at 30 degrees C for several hours at pH values close to the physiological range without the release of proteins from the solid matrix. The phosphorus transfer can be largely increased with the use of high ATP concentrations. The stability of the substrates is sufficient to suggest a wide applicability of this solid-state protein kinase in the phosphorylation of proteins either for labeling or as a tool to modify proteins post-synthetically under gentle conditions. The solid enzyme seems to be suitable for radioactively labeling proteins of more complex biological structures, such as membrane surfaces.
