Chicken cardiac C-protein was readily phosphorylated by purified calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaM-kinase II). Maximum incorporation was about 4 mol of 32P/mol of C-protein subunit. Peptide mapping indicated that some of the sites phosphorylated by CaM-kinase II were located on the same phosphopeptides obtained when C-protein was phosphorylated by the
cAMP-dependent protein kinase
(peptides T1, T2, and T3). There was a fourth peptide (T3a) which was unique to CaM-kinase II phosphorylation. 32P-Amino acid analysis showed that essentially all of the 32P of peptides T1, T2, and T3a was in
phosphoserine
.
cAMP-dependent protein kinase
incorporated 32P only into threonine of peptide T3. Threonine was the preferred site of phosphorylation by CaM-kinase II, but there was significant phosphorylation of a serine in peptide T3. Partially purified C-protein preparations contained an associated calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase. Peptide maps obtained from C-protein phosphorylated by the endogenous kinase were similar to those obtained from C-protein phosphorylated by CaM-kinase II. However, the ratio of phosphothreonine to
phosphoserine
in peptide T3 was lower. This was due to a contaminating phosphatase in the partially purified C-protein which preferentially dephosphorylated the phosphothreonine of peptide T3. It is suggested that the calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase associated with C-protein is similar or identical to CaM-kinase II and that CaM-kinase II may play a role in the phosphorylation of C-protein in the heart.

Extracts of bakers' yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) contain protein-tyrosine kinase activity that can be detected with a synthetic Glu-Tyr copolymer as substrate (G. Schieven, J. Thorner, and G.S. Martin, Science 231:390-393, 1986). By using this assay in conjunction with ion-exchange and affinity chromatography, a soluble tyrosine kinase activity was purified over 8,000-fold from yeast extracts. The purified activity did not utilize typical substrates for mammalian protein-tyrosine kinases (enolase, casein, and histones). The level of tyrosine kinase activity at all steps of each preparation correlated with the content of a 40-kDa protein (p40). Upon incubation of the most highly purified fractions with Mn-ATP or Mg-ATP, p40 was the only protein phosphorylated on tyrosine. Immunoblotting of purified p40 or total yeast extracts with antiphosphotyrosine antibodies and phosphoamino acid analysis of 32P-labeled yeast proteins fractionated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis indicated that the 40-kDa protein is normally phosphorylated at tyrosine in vivo. 32P-labeled p40 immunoprecipitated from extracts of metabolically labeled cells by affinity-purified anti-p40 antibodies contained both
phosphoserine
and phosphotyrosine. The gene encoding p40 (YPK1) was cloned from a yeast genomic library by using oligonucleotide probes designed on the basis of the sequence of purified peptides. As deduced from the nucleotide sequence of YPK1, p40 is homologous to known protein kinases, with features that resemble known protein-serine kinases more than known protein-tyrosine kinases. Thus, p40 is a
protein kinase
which is phosphorylated in vivo and in vitro at both tyrosine and serine residues; it may be a novel type of autophosphorylating tyrosine kinase, a bifunctional (serine/tyrosine-specific)
protein kinase
, or a
serine kinase
that is a substrate for an associated tyrosine kinase.

Because functionally significant substrates for the tyrosyl
protein kinase
activity of pp60v-src are likely to include membrane-associated proteins involved in normal growth control, we have tested the hypothesis that pp60v-src could phosphorylate and alter the signaling activity of transmembrane growth factor receptors. We have found that the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor becomes constitutively phosphorylated on tyrosine in cells transformed by the src oncogene and in addition displays elevated levels of
phosphoserine
and phosphothreonine. High-performance liquid chromatography phosphopeptide mapping revealed two predominant sites of tyrosine phosphorylation, both of which differed from the major sites of receptor autophosphorylation; thus, the src-induced phosphorylation is unlikely to occur via an autocrine mechanism. To determine whether pp60v-src altered the signaling activity of the EGF receptor, we analyzed the tyrosine phosphorylation of phospholipase C-gamma, since phosphorylation of this enzyme occurs in response to activation of the EGF receptor but not in response to pp60v-src alone. We found that in cells coexpressing pp60v-src and the EGF receptor, phospholipase C-gamma was constitutively phosphorylated, a result we interpret as indicating that the signaling activity of the EGF receptor was altered in the src-transformed cells. These findings suggest that pp60v-src-induced alterations in phosphorylation and function of growth regulatory receptors could play an important role in generating the phenotypic changes associated with malignant transformation.

The delta-subunit of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor from Torpedo californica electric tissue isolated form receptor purified in the absence of protein phosphatase inhibitors contains a total of four phosphate groups. Three of these are shown to represent
phosphoserine
groups. The fourth possible represents phosphotyrosine. The phosphate groups are localized within the primary structure: We found
phosphoserine
in positions delta S361 and delta S377, the predicted sites phosphorylated by
PKA
and PKC, respectively. In addition, we found that position delta S362 is also phosphorylated. Phosphorylation experiments with the synthetic peptide delta L357-delta K368 show that phosphorylation of this novel site can be catalyzed by
PKA
and by PKC. It is concluded that the delat-subunit of the acetylcholine receptor is stably and not transiently phosphorylated. Implications for the physiological functions of receptor phosphorylation are discussed.

Keratins, constituent proteins of intermediate filaments of epithelial cells, are phosphoproteins containing
phosphoserine
and phosphothreonine. We examined the in vitro phosphorylation of keratin filaments by
cAMP-dependent protein kinase
, protein kinase C and Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II. When rat liver keratin filaments reconstituted by type I keratin 18 (molecular mass 47 kDa; acidic type) and type II keratin 8 (molecular mass 55 kDa; basic type) in a 1:1 ratio were used as substrates, all the protein kinases phosphorylated both of the constituent proteins to a significant rate and extent, and disassembly of the keratin filament structure occurred. Kinetic analysis suggested that all these protein kinases preferentially phosphorylate keratin 8, compared to keratin 18. The amino acid residues of keratins 8 and 18 phosphorylated by
cAMP-dependent protein kinase
or protein kinase C were almost exclusively serine, while those phosphorylated by Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II were serine and threonine. Peptide mapping analysis indicated that these protein kinases phosphorylate keratins 8 and 18 in a different manner. These observations gave the way for in vivo studies of the role of phosphorylation in the reorganization of keratin filaments.

Two-dimensional tryptic peptide analysis showed that pp60c-src from the human retinoblastoma cell line Y79 gave a unique phosphopeptide, which was not found in human fibroblast RT59. There was no significant difference in the extent of phosphorylation of other peptides between the two cell lines. Only
phosphoserine
was detected in this phosphopeptide. Both the fibroblast form and the neuronal form of pp60c-src from Y79 cells had this unique peptide phosphorylated to the same extent. The phosphorylation site was inferred to be serine 97 by comparing the tryptic map and the arginyl-endopeptidase map. The specific
protein kinase
activity of pp60c-src from Y79 cells was nearly equal to that of RT59 pp60c-src. This unique serine phosphorylation in the fibroblast form was discussed in relation to the oncogenic change of Y79 cells.

Rat brain plasma membranes were solubilized in detergent and a glycoprotein-enriched fraction was obtained by lectin affinity chromatography. This glycoprotein fraction contained insulin receptors, as well as protein kinases capable of phosphorylating some exogenously added substrates such as MAP2 (microtubule associated protein 2) and MBP (myelin basic protein), but not ribosomal protein S6. Phosphoamino acid analysis of MAP2 and MBP showed that phosphotyrosine residues, as well as
phosphoserine
/phosphotheronine residues, were present in both proteins under basal conditions. Whereas the addition of insulin to the rat brain membrane glycoprotein fraction in vitro had no effect on MAP2 phosphorylation, MBP phosphorylation was stimulated 2.7-fold in response to insulin. This phenomenon was dose-dependent, with half-maximal stimulation of MBP phosphorylation observed with 2 nM insulin. Phosphoamino acid analysis of MBP indicated that insulin stimulated the phosphorylation of tyrosine residues nearly three-fold, whereas the phosphorylation of serine or threonine residues was not increased. These results identify MBP as a substrate for the rat brain insulin receptor tyrosine-specific
protein kinase
in vitro.

The protooncogene product,
Raf-1
, is a serine/threonine kinase and has been implicated as an intermediate in signal transduction mechanisms. We examined neoplastic and normal B cells for phosphorylation and activation of
Raf-1
protein in response to anti-immunoglobulin antibody (anti-Ig). Anti-Ig induced rapid phosphorylation of
Raf-1
protein in both neoplastic B-cells of hairy cell leukemia and normal tonsillar B-cells which proliferated well in response to anti-Ig. The increase in phosphorylation was due primarily to an increase in
phosphoserine
. The immune complex kinase assay using Histone V-S as an exogenous substrate also showed an increase in
Raf-1
-associated kinase activity. An inhibitor of protein kinase C, H7, inhibited the proliferation as well as the
Raf-1
phosphorylation in response to the proliferative signal of anti-Ig. Further, downregulation of protein kinase C by the treatment with 12-phorbol 13-myristic acid significantly abrogated the induction of
Raf-1
phosphorylation. These results suggest that, in human B-cells,
Raf-1
protein may be involved in the signal transduction pathway mediated by surface immunoglobulin, and that it may be, at least partially, phosphorylated by activated PKC.

The effect of phosphorylation of insulin receptor with adenosine 3',5'-
cyclic monophosphate-dependent protein kinase
(A kinase) on its insulin binding activity was investigated by using insulin receptors prepared from rat liver in vitro. A 95 KDa protein was phosphorylated by stimulation of insulin receptor kinase. This protein was also phosphorylated by A kinase. Analysis of phosphoamino acid showed that tyrosine residue(s) was phosphorylated by activation of insulin receptor kinase, whereas
phosphoserine
and phosphothreonine were dominantly generated by activation of A kinase. [125I] Iodoinsulin binding activity was decreased by prior phosphorylation of the receptor with A kinase. Scatchard analysis showed that the affinity for insulin was decreased by the phosphorylation with A kinase. Although the maximal activity of insulin receptor kinase was not affected by phosphorylation with A kinase, the insulin concentration which induced half maximal activity (ED50) of the receptor kinase was increased by the phosphorylation with A kinase. These results suggested that counter regulatory hormones whose actions are mediated by the generation of adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate regulate the insulin binding to the alpha subunit through phosphorylation of the beta subunit of insulin receptor.

Synthetic peptide substrates for
CKII
are useful reagents in the analysis of phosphorylation sites when used in conjunction with biochemical and genetic analysis of the protein substrates for the enzyme. A multidisciplinary approach should be applied to the characterization of the synthetic peptide products, including amino acid analysis, sequencing, and mass spectrometry. Synthetic procedures for
CKII
substrate peptides often result in anisole adducts and dehydrated forms. Mass spectrometry is invaluable in identifying these contaminants, and preparative HPLC can be used to separate them from the desired product. Quantitative analysis of the
CKII
phosphorylation of peptides can utilize phosphocellulose paper if the peptide has a basic sequence, or thin-layer chromatography, if the peptide has no basic portion. Qualitative analysis using electrophoresis and mass spectrometry help to establish the stoichiometry of phosphorylation. Sequence analysis of
phosphoserine
after beta elimination and derivatization is useful in quantifying adjacent phosphorylation sites. Overall, application of a variety of techniques permits detailed analysis of
CKII
phosphorylation sites on synthetic peptides that are model substrates.
