Autophosphorylating protein kinase 500 is a serine protein kinase expressed progressively with the steps of cellular transformation, approaching levels from 50- to 100-fold in the terminal stages of malignancy. The enzyme possesses a sharply restricted range of substrates: itself and a ribosomal protein with a molecular weight of 31,000 (S6). We report here on the characterization of a monoclonal antibody directed against the autophosphorylation domain of AUT-PK 500. The specificity of the antibody is evidenced by blockage of the enzyme phosphorylation without interfering with the native S6 or synthetic octapeptide (S6-1) serine residue phosphorylations. This represents an important step in identifying a probe that can be used to explore the structure and potential function of AUT-PK 500 in cellular transformation.

The 25 kDa mRNA cap binding protein can be purified in a partially phosphorylated state and the extent of its phosphorylation appears to be regulated during heat shock and mitosis in mammalian cells. We demonstrated that a nonabundant serine protein kinase activity exists in rabbit reticulocytes that phosphorylates the 25 kDa cap binding protein in both the free (eIF-4E) and complexed (eIF-4F) state. This kinase was not inhibited by the cAMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitory peptide IAAGRTGRRNAIHDILVAA, did not phosphorylate S6 ribosomal protein, did not phosphorylate p220 of eIF-4F as protein kinase C does and no other substrates for this kinase were apparent in reticulocyte ribosomal salt wash. The molecular identity of this kinase, the specific site(s) of eIF-4E that it phosphorylates and its in vivo regulatory role remain to be studied.

To investigate substrates for cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase in intact islets of Langerhans, batches of islets were incubated with [32P]Pi for 1 h in the presence of 10 mM-glucose; the adenylate cyclase activator forskolin, which in parallel experiments was shown to increase islet cyclic AMP content and insulin release, was then added. Islets were homogenized and subcellular fractions prepared by differential centrifugation. Phosphopeptides were electrophoresed on sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide gels and quantified by autoradiography and densitometry. Within 5 min forskolin caused increased labelling of Mr-25 000 and -30 000 cytosolic and Mr-23 000 and -32 000 particulate peptides; a rapid decrease in phosphorylation of Mr-18 000 and -34 000 cytosolic peptides was also observed. In addition, rather slower phosphorylation occurred of the Mr-15 000 peptide previously identified as histone H3 [Christie & Ashcroft (1984) Biochem. J. 218, 87-99]. When similar subcellular fractions were incubated with [gamma-32P]ATP and purified catalytic subunit of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, peptides phosphorylated included cytosolic species of Mr 25 000 and 30 000 and particulate species of Mr 23 000 and 32 000. The distribution of RNA in the subcellular fractions suggested that the Mr-32 000 species could be a ribosomal protein. The 24 000 g pellet was heterogeneous, as judged by marker assays, and was therefore fractionated further by Percoll-density-gradient centrifugation. The peak containing the Mr-23 000 peptide was resolved from marker enzymes for plasma membranes, mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum and coincided with a peak for insulin: hence the Mr-23 000 peptide is likely to be a secretory-granule component. The study demonstrates that the potentiation of insulin release that occurs when islet cyclic AMP is increased is accompanied by rapid phosphorylation of specific islet substrates for cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. The data are consistent with the hypothesis that protein phosphorylation is involved in the regulation of insulin secretion.

We examined the ability of protein kinase activities from BHK (baby-hamster kidney) cells infected with pseudorabies virus to catalyse the phosphorylation of ribosomal protein S6 in vitro. When the cytosol from infected cells was fractionated on DEAE-cellulose, 40S ribosomal protein kinase activity was found associated with the two isoforms of the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, protein kinase C and a protein kinase (ViPK, virus-induced protein kinase) only detected in infected cells. The phosphorylation of ribosomal protein by ViPK was of particular interest because the appearance of the protein kinase and the increase in the phosphorylation of protein S6 in infected cells shared a similar time course. At moderate concentrations of KCl the major ribosomal substrate for ViPK was ribosomal protein S7, a protein not found to be phosphorylated in vivo. However, at 600 mM-KCl, or in the presence of 5-10 mM-spermine at 60-150 mM-KCl, the phosphorylation of ribosomal protein S7 was suppressed and ribosomal protein S6 became the major substrate. The maximum stoichiometry of phosphorylation obtained under the latter conditions was 1-2 mol of phosphate/mol of S6, and only mono- and di-phosphorylated forms of S6 were detected on two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. As the infection of BHK cells by pseudorabies virus results in the appearance of phosphorylated species of S6 containing up to 5 mol of phosphate/mol of S6 protein, it appears unlikely that ViPK alone can be responsible for the multiple phosphorylation seen in vivo. Nevertheless, tryptic phosphopeptide analysis did indicate that in vitro ViPK catalysed the phosphorylation of at least one of the sites on ribosomal protein S6 phosphorylated in vivo, so that a contributory role for the enzyme in the phosphorylation in vivo cannot be excluded.

The conversion of cholesterol to pregnenolone by adrenocortical mitochondria is the rate-limiting step in steroidogenesis. This process is stimulated dramatically by the action of ACTH through the sequential reactions, in which adenyl cyclase, cAMP-dependent protein kinase, cholesterol esterase and ribosomal protein synthesis are all involved. The de novo synthesized protein, the so-called labile protein with a half-life of approx 10 min, is believed to stimulate the cholesterol side chain cleavage reaction by an unknown mechanism. Available evidence indicates that the electron on transfer reaction from NADPH to P-450scc is mediated rapidly by adrenodoxin reductase and p-450 scc. In addition, these redox components are inactivated slowly with a half-life of 3.5 days after hypophysectomy. It is known that the corticoid output from adrenocortical cells starts within 5 min and reaches the maximum after 10-15 min of ACTH administration to animals. One can assume that under normal physiological conditions, both O2 and NADPH are not limiting. Additionally, mitochondrial inner membranes are poor in cholesterol. In this context, the availability of substrate cholesterol to P450scc is the most likely candidate for the regulatory mechanism.

A calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase (Ca/calmodulin protein kinase) was purified from rat pancreas using hydrophobic chromatography followed by gel filtration and affinity chromatography. Ca/calmodulin protein kinase from pancreas resembled previously described multifunctional Ca/calmodulin protein kinases from other tissues with respect to substrate specificity, autophosphorylation on serine and threonine residues, and catalytic and hydrodynamic properties. While Ca/calmodulin protein kinase from other tissues contains subunits of 53-60 kDa with variable proportions of a smaller 50-52 kDa subunit, pancreatic Ca/calmodulin protein kinase was found to contain a single component of 51 kDa. Experiments mixing brain Ca/calmodulin protein kinase with pancreatic homogenate suggest that the absence of a larger subunit in the pancreatic Ca/calmodulin protein kinase is not due to proteolytic degradation during enzyme preparation. Ca/calmodulin protein kinase binding to 125I-labeled calmodulin in solution was demonstrated using the photoaffinity cross-linker, N-hydroxysuccinimidyl-4-azidobenzoate. 125I-labeled calmodulin binding to Ca/calmodulin protein kinase was also demonstrated using filters containing Ca/calmodulin protein kinase transferred from polyacrylamide gels after two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. Finally, the ribosomal substrate for Ca/calmodulin protein kinase was identified as the ribosomal protein, S6. The purification procedure presented in this study promises to be useful in characterizing Ca/calmodulin protein kinase in other tissues and in clarifying the role of these enzymes in cellular function.

The phosphorylation of mammalian ribosomal protein S6 is affected by a variety of agents, including growth factors and tumor promoters, as well as by expressed oncogenes. Its potential role in the regulation of protein synthesis has been the object of much study. We have developed strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae in which the phosphorylatable serines of the equivalent ribosomal protein (S10) were converted to alanines by site-directed mutagenesis. The S10 of such cells is not phosphorylated. Comparison of these cells with the parental cells, whose genomes differ by only six nucleotides, revealed no differences in the lag phase or logarithmic phase of a growth cycle, in growth on different carbon sources, in sporulation, or in sensitivity to heat shock. We conclude that in S. cerevisiae the phosphorylation of ribosomal protein S10 may play no role in regulating the synthesis of proteins. This conclusion leads one to ask whether certain protein phosphorylations are simply the adventitious, if easily observable, result of the imperfect specificity of one or another protein kinase.

Two proteins of yeast 40S ribosome subunit and four proteins of the 60S ribosome subunit were labelled in vivo with [32P]orthophosphate. Five of these proteins were phosphorylated by protein kinase 3, an enzyme which is cyclic AMP-independent and uses ATP and GTP as phosphoryl donors. Two proteins, belonging to the 60S ribosome subunit were phosphorylated by another, highly specific, cyclic AMP-independent protein kinase 1 B. Both in vivo and in vitro the most extensively phosphorylated protein species were acidic proteins, L44, L45 (according to the nomenclature of Kruiswijk & Planta, Molec. Biol. Rep., 1, 409-415, 1974) possibly corresponding to bacterial L7 and L12 proteins. The 40S ribosomal protein, S9, analogous to mammalian S6 protein, was phosphorylated in vivo but was not phosphorylated in vitro by either of the cyclic AMP-independent protein kinases. The obtained results clearly indicate that cyclic AMP-independent yeast protein kinases might be involved in the modification in vivo of some ribosomal proteins, in particular of the strongly acidic proteins of 60S ribosome subunit.

The phosphorylation of 40-S ribosomal subunits by cyclic-nucleotide-dependent and protease-activated protein kinases from rabbit reticulocytes was studied in vitro. Under optimal conditions the cAMP-dependent protein kinases incorporated up to 2 mol phosphate/mol S6. The electrophoretic mobility of S6 following phosphorylation indicated that this value was not an average for a population of maximally phosphorylated and non-phosphorylated S6 but represented a uniform population of diphosphorylated 40-S ribosomal subunits. Tryptic digests of S6 were analyzed by two-dimensional fingerprinting following phosphorylation with the cAMP-dependent protein kinase; two phosphopeptides, A and B, were observed. When 40-S ribosomal subunits were examined with the cGMP-dependent protein kinase, 1 mol phosphate was incorporated/mol S6. Upon analysis of the phosphopeptides obtained with the cGMP-dependent protein kinase, only peptide A was observed. S6 was also modified by a cyclic-nucleotide-independent protein kinase, protease-activated kinase II, following activation of the enzyme by limited proteolytic digestion. These findings suggest that a multiple protein kinase system may regulate the phosphorylation state of S6. A second ribosomal protein, S10, was phosphorylated by a different cyclic-nucleotide-independent protein kinase, protease-activated kinase I, and up to 1 mol phosphate was incorporated.

Studies were carried out to elucidate the mechanisms underlying the diminished phosphorylation of cerebral ribosomal protein in experimental hyperphenylalaninaemia [Roberts & Morelos (1980) Biochem. J.190, 405-419]. Administration of N(6),O(2)'-dibutyryl cyclic AMP or 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine, which increased phosphorylation of the S6 protein of cerebral 40S ribosomal subunits in control infant rats, did not counteract the decreased phosphorylation of this ribosomal protein resulting from intraperitoneal administration of a loading dose of l-phenylalanine. N(2),O(2)'-Dibutyryl cyclic GMP had no effect on cerebral ribosomal-protein phosphorylation in either control or hyperphenylalaninaemic animals. The phenylalanine-induced decrease in ribosomal-protein phosphorylation was associated with decreased protein kinase activity in cerebral cytosolic and microsomal preparations. However, the maximal protein kinase response to cyclic AMP added in vitro was unaltered by prior administration of phenylalanine in vivo. The heat-stable protein inhibitor of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinases decreased the activity of these enzymes by about 90% and eliminated the phenylalanine-induced difference in protein kinase activity in the absence of added cyclic AMP. Intracisternal administration of doses of dibutyryl cyclic AMP or 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine which increased the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase activity ratio in control infant rats was without effect on this index in phenylalanine-treated animals. Dibutyryl cyclic GMP had no effect on the protein kinase activity ratio in either group of animals. These results suggest that inhibition of cerebral cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinases by abnormally high concentrations of phenylalanine may contribute to the decrease in cerebral ribosomal-protein phosphorylation in experimental hyperphenylalaninaemia.
