A number of protein modification activities are present in the protein-synthesizing complex isolated from rabbit reticulocytes. These enzymes are solubilized by sedimentation of the ribosomes through buffered sucrose containing 0.5 M KCl, and have been partially purified from the high salt wash fraction by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose and phosphocellulose. The ribosomal-associated enzymatic activities include cyclic AMP-regulated and cyclic nucloetide-independent protein kinase, phosphoprotein phosphatase, and acetyltransferase activities. These enzymatic activities have been shown to modify specific ribosomal and ribosomal-associated proteins. The cycli c AMP-regulated protein kinase phosphorylate the 40 S ribosomal subunit from rabbit reticulocytes. One of the cyclic nucleotide-independent protein kinase catalyzes the phosphorylation of two different factors involved in the initiation of hemoglobin synthesis. A single phosphoprotein phosphatase activity is shown to remove phosphate from 40 S ribosomal subunits. The major acetyltransferase activity associated with ribosomes acetylates a 60 S ribosomal protein.

In a previous publication the purification and properties of two protein kinases (KI and KII) from a soluble fraction of bovine corpus luteum and the stimulation of the latter fol. Chem. 248,494-501). We have now studied the effects oc cyclic AMP and luteinizing hormone on ribosomal protein phosphorylation of corpus luteum by protein kinase II. Protein kinase II catalyzed the phosphorylation of ribosomes by transfer of terminal phosphate of ATP to ribosomal proteinsmextraction with hot trichloroacetic acid and non-aqueous solvent revealed that about 80% of total radioactivity incorporated remain associated with the protein residue. Radioactivity was identified in the phosphoserine and phosphothreonine residues of polypeptides by high voltage paper electrophoresis; The extent of phosphorylation was stimulated by cyclic AMP but not by luteinizing hormonemat least 9 proteins of 80-S ribosomes and 12 proteins of the 60-S ribosomal subunit were phosphorylated in the presence of cyclic AMP as resolved by urea polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. However, only one major and four minor bands were phosphorylated in the ase of 40-S ribosomal subunit under the influence of cyclic AMP. The ribosomal protein phosphorylation catalyzed by protein kinase II is regulated by cyclic AMP wherease luteinizing hormone has no effect on ribosome phosphorylation.

The phosphorylation of ribosomal proteins from eukaryotes in homologous and heterologous cell-free systems has been studied. The ribosomes and protein kinases from yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae, strain Bu), wheat (Triticum vulgare) and rabbit (Orystolagus cuniculus) have been used. It has been found that five ribosomal proteins incorporate gamma-32P from ATP during the incubation of wheat ribosomes with wheat protein kinase. When the phosphorylation of isolated wheat ribosomal proteins was examined more phosphoproteins were detected. These data confirm the suggestion that the ribosomal structure affects the phosphorylation. Probably some ribosomal proteins remain hidden for the action of protein kinase. The results from the crossed experiments show that there is no barrier for phosphorylation of yeast ribosomes with liver protein kinase, of wheat ribosomes with yeast and liver protein kinases and of liver ribosomes with yeast and plant protein kinases. The wheat protein kinase does not phosphorylate the yeast ribosomes under these experimental conditions. Some differences in the set of phosphoproteins obtained with various protein kinases have been detected. These data suggest that the ribosomal protein phosphorylation is not highly species specific although it is not universal.

One ribosomal protein kinase activity and 3 soluble protein kinase activities have been identified in plasma cell tumors by DEAE-cellulose chromatography. We have shown phosphorylation in vivo and in vitro of a protein fraction from the ribosomal KCl wash which we have termed 'PPx fraction'. Phosphorylation of this protein fraction has been obtained in vitro with the ribosome-associated protein kinase. We have determined for the ribosomal protein kinase the following characteristics. 1. It is an Mg2+-dependent enzyme that transfers the gamma-phosphate from ATP into phosphoseryl and phosphothreonyl residues of the substrate. 2. It has a wide substrate specificity. Like the soluble protein kinases it catalyses the phosphorylation of several proteins like histone, phosvitin, casein and ribosomal proteins but it differs from the main soluble kinases (I, II) by the fact that it catalyses specifically the phosphorylation at least of one of the ribosomal KCl wash proteins. On dodecylsulfate-polyacrylamide gels this protein has a molecular weight of approximately 90000 and it is released from ribosomes under conditions commonly employed for extraction of initiation factors. 3. The ribosome-associated protein kinase is not stimulated by the addition of cyclic adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate. 4. KCl has no effect, NaCl has a weak effect on the phosphorylation, Mn2+ and Ca2+ are inhibitors. 5. ADP has been found to be a competitive inhibitor. 6. The maximum velocity of the ribosomal protein-kinase-catalysed reaction is 0.65 nmol of 32P incorporated in the KCl wash protein per min and per mg protein. 7. The apparent Km for the ribosomal KCl wash protein as substrate is 0.71 mg/ml and the Km for ATP is 94 muM. 8. The molecular weight of the ribosomal protein kinase, estimated by electrophoresis in polyacrylamide-dodecylsulfate gels, is 60000 and corresponds probably to a catalytic subunit.

Incubation of 80S ribosomes with a substoichiometric amount of [alpha-32P]GTP and with eEF-2 resulted in the specific labeling of one ribosomal protein which migrated very close to the position of the acidic phosphoprotein P2 from the 60S subunit in two-dimensional isofocusing-SDS gel electrophoresis. Localization of protein P2 in this electrophoretic system was ascertained by correlation with its position in the standard two-dimensional acidic-SDS gel electrophoresis after its specific phosphorylation by casein kinase II. Labeling of the ribosomal protein was dependent on the presence of eEF-2, and could be attributed to [alpha-32P]GDP binding from the results of chase experiments and HPLC identification, this binding being very likely responsible for the slight shift in the electrophoretical position of the protein. Incubation of ribosomes with tRNA(Phe) in the absence of mRNA induced the release of the bound GDP.

Activation of protein synthesis is required for quiescent cells to transit the cell cycle, and seems to be mediated in part by phosphorylation of the 40S ribosomal protein, S6. A mitogen-activated S6 kinase of relative molecular mass 70,000 (70K) has been isolated from mouse fibroblasts as well as from avian, rat and rabbit tissues. Comparison of complementary DNA sequences shows that this enzyme is distinct from S6 kinase II (92K) found in Xenopus eggs and fibroblasts. Both kinases are activated by serine/threonine phosphorylation, suggesting that at least one serine/threonine kinase links receptor tyrosine kinases with S6 kinases. A candidate for this link is MAP2 kinase, which is rapidly activated by tyrosine/threonine phosphorylation following mitogenic stimulation. Incubation of MAP2 kinase from insulin-treated 3T3-L1 adipocytes with phosphatase-inactivated S6 kinase II from Xenopus leads to partial reactivation and phosphorylation of the enzyme. These and other findings have led to the suggestion that MAP2 kinase also activates the 70K S6 kinase. Here we refute this idea by showing that the two kinases lie on distinct signalling pathways.

The GCN4 gene of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae encodes a transcriptional activator of amino acid biosynthetic genes that is regulated at the translational level according to the availability of amino acids. GCN2 is a protein kinase required for increased translation of GCN4 mRNA in amino acid-starved cells. Centrifugation of cell extracts in sucrose gradients indicated that GCN2 comigrates with ribosomal subunits and polysomes. The fraction of GCN2 cosedimenting with polysomes was reduced under conditions in which polysomes were dissociated, suggesting that GCN2 is physically bound to these structures. When the association of 40S and 60S subunits was prevented by omitting Mg2+ from the gradient, almost all of the GCN2 comigrated with 60S ribosomal subunits, and it remained bound to these particles during gel electrophoresis under nondenaturing conditions. GCN2 could be dissociated from 60S subunits by 0.5 M KCl, suggesting that it is loosely associated with ribosomes rather than being an integral ribosomal protein. Accumulation of GCN2 on free 43S-48S particles and 60S subunits occurred during polysome runoff in vitro and under conditions of reduced growth rate in vivo. These observations, plus the fact that GCN2 shows preferential association with free ribosomal subunits during exponential growth, suggest that GCN2 interacts with ribosomes during the translation initiation cycle. The extreme carboxyl-terminal segment of GCN2 is essential for its interaction with ribosomes. These sequences are also required for the ability of GCN2 to stimulate GCN4 translation in vivo, leading us to propose that ribosome association by GCN2 is important for its access to substrates in the translational machinery or for detecting uncharged tRNA in amino acid-starved cells.

Treatment of PC12h cells with nerve growth factor (NGF) induced a transient increase in the phosphorylation of a 35,000-dalton protein. This transient increase was observed also when extracts of NGF-treated cells were incubated with [gamma-32P]ATP. In the intact-cell phosphorylation system, treatment with N,2'-dibutyryladenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (dBcAMP) or 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA) also induced a transient increase in the phosphorylation of the 35,000-dalton protein, but the effect was less than that of NGF. An effect comparable to that of NGF was obtained by the combination of dBcAMP and TPA. Pretreatment of PC12h cells with dBcAMP plus TPA for 3 days, which deprived the cells of their ability to respond to a rechallenge with dBcAMP, TPA, or dBcAMP plus TPA by increasing the rate of 35,000-dalton protein phosphorylation, caused only a slight attenuation of the NGF effect, directly indicating a minimal role of cyclic AMP (cAMP)-dependent protein kinase and protein kinase C in the mechanism of the NGF action. Pretreatment of the cells with K-252a, a protein kinase inhibitor, at a concentration of 300 nM almost completely blocked the action of NGF, but scarcely affected the action of dBcAMP, TPA, or dBcAMP plus TPA in intact-cell phosphorylation experiments. This NGF-sensitive 35,000-dalton protein was a ribosomal protein and identified as ribosomal protein S6. The results lead us to conclude that NGF activates some NGF-sensitive component(s), probably some specific protein kinase(s) other than cAMP-dependent protein kinase or protein kinase C, which is suppressed by K-252a and directly or indirectly activates a 35,000-dalton protein kinase(s) [S6 kinase(s)] to increase the rate of phosphorylation of the 35,000-dalton ribosomal protein (S6).

We have examined the ribosomal protein kinase activities in partially purified cytoplasmic extracts from HeLa cells infected with vaccinia virus. We found an activity or activities, absent from mock-infected cells, that was capable of phosphorylating the proteins S2 and S13 in vitro. The ribosomes phosphorylated in vitro exhibited the same multiple phosphorylation of S2 found in vivo, at least 3 phosphoryl residues being seen, and the same mono-phosphorylation of S13. Also as in vivo, ribosomal protein S2 contained phosphothreonine as well as phosphoserine, whereas S13 contained only phosphoserine. This strongly suggests that these new protein kinase activities are responsible for the ribosomal protein phosphorylations that occur during infection with vaccinia virus.

The polypeptide hormones governing the proliferation and differentiation of the mature immune system and hematopoiesis are collectively referred to as lymphokines. We have examined a number of biochemical and molecular events stimulated by several unique lymphokines which exhibit proliferative activity on lymphoid and myeloid cell lines. Interleukin-2 (IL-2) and several members of the colony-stimulating factors (IL-3, G-CSF, and GM-CSF) stimulate similar patterns of cellular phosphorylation including the prominent phosphorylation of a 68-kDa substrate present in numerous distinct lineage cell lines. The 68-kDa substrate is phosphorylated by protein kinase C on threonine residues and is primarily cytosolic. Another kinase system activated by either physiological ligand or synthetic diacylglycerol phosphorylated the 40S ribosomal protein in a dose-dependent manner. The increased phosphorylation of S6 protein was associated with enhanced chain elongation in vitro. The kinase responsible for the in situ phosphorylation, however, was not protein kinase-C (PK-C) but another physicochemically distinct Mg2+-dependent enzyme (termed S6 kinase). These studies suggested that, although PK-C was activated by diacylglycerol, another kinase, S6 kinase, was the effector enzyme involved in the phosphorylation of the 40S protein. IL-2 and all other CSFs tested stimulated the transcription of the nuclear protooncogenes c-fos, c-myc, and c-myb. In addition, ornithine decarboxylase mRNA accumulation was also stimulated. Phorbol esters also stimulated similar gene expression; however, cyclic AMP analog inhibited phorbol ester or ligand-induced c-myc expression and ODC mRNA accumulation. Cyclic AMP agonists are antiproliferative to all the growth factors tested. We have constructed complementary oligonucleotides, "antisense", against c-fos, c-myc, and other structural genes induced by the growth factors. Such antisense oligomers were capable of selectively deleting protein expression of the respective gene products and inhibited the biological action of the growth factors.
