Tyrosine protein kinase present in the membrane fraction of bovine cerebral cortex were extracted and chromatographically fractionated. The activity associated with tyrosine protein kinases was fully extracted from the membranes by 1% sodium cholate and eluted in two peaks (I and II) during chromatography of protein extracts on DEAE-Toyopearl in the presence of sodium cholate. The predominant in cerebral cortex membrane tyrosine protein kinase of peak I (about 75% of the total activity) was purified 1930-fold by gel filtration on Sephacryl S-300, chromatography on hexyl- and phenyl-Sepharose and by rechromatography on DEAE-Toyopearl. The amount of the enzyme prepared from 250 g of bovine brain was 20 micrograms, the enzyme yield and specific activity being 3.8% and 3.9 nmol/mg protein/min, respectively. The purified protein kinase of peak I represents a protein with Mr of 62-63,000 (p62) capable of being autophosphorylated in the presence of [gamma-32P]. Protein kinase p62 phosphorylates enolase, tubulin and calpactin I as well as model substrates in the series: histone H5 greater than poly(G, T)n greater than or equal to histone H2A greater than poly(G, A, T)n, histone H4 greater than caseins, histones H1 and H2B, poly(G, A, L, T)n. The enzyme is specific for Mn2+ at the optimal concentration about 1 mM. The KmMn-ATP is 0.3 microM; Km for histone H5 and poly(G, T)n are 0.45 mg/ml and 0.06 mg/ml, respectively. The protein kinase p62 activity is inhibited by NaCl (IC50 approximately 75-100 mM) as well as by quercetin, adriamycin and lasalocid (IC50 approximately 14-34, 23 and 90 microM, respectively). It is concluded that protein kinase p62 is analogous to the c-src gene protein kinase.

The efficiency of efflux of rapidly labeled poly(A)-containing mRNA from isolated rat liver nuclei was found to be modulated by insulin and epidermal growth factor (EGF) in a biphasic but opposite way. At physiological concentrations (10 pM insulin and 1 pM EGF), maximal stimulation of the transport rate by insulin (to 137%) and maximal inhibition by EGF (to 69%) were obtained; at higher concentrations (greater than 100 pM and greater than 10 pM, respectively), the amount of poly(A)-containing mRNA released into the postnuclear supernatant was nearly identical with the level found in untreated nuclei (= 100%). Using mRNA entrapped into closed nuclear envelope (NE) vesicles as a model system, it was found that the modulation of nuclear efflux of mRNA by the two growth factors occurs at the level of translocation through the nuclear pore. The NE nucleoside-triphosphatase (NTPase) activity, which is thought to mediate nucleocytoplasmic transport of at least some mRNAs, responded to insulin and EGF in the same manner as the mRNA transport rate. The increase in NTPase activity caused by insulin and the decrease in NTPase activity caused by EGF were found to be due to changes of the maximal catalytic rate; the Michaelis constant of the enzyme remained almost constant. Investigating the effect of the two growth factors on transport of specific mRNAs, poly(A)-containing actin mRNA was found to display the same alteration in efflux rate as rapidly labeled, total poly(A)-containing mRNA. In contrast, efflux of histone H4 mRNA, which lacks a 3'-poly(A) sequence, decreased in response to insulin and reached minimum levels at the same concentration at which maximum levels of actin mRNA transport rate were obtained. Studying the mechanism of action of insulin and EGF on NE mRNA translocation system, insulin was found to cause an enhancement of NE-associated phosphoprotein phosphatase activity, resulting in a dephosphorylation of the NE poly(A) binding site (= mRNA carrier) and, hence, in a decrease in its affinity to poly(A) [the poly(A) binding affinity of the poly(A)-recognizing mRNA carrier within the envelope is increased after phosphorylation]. EGF, on the other hand, stimulated the protein kinase, which phosphorylates the carrier, and, hence increased the NE poly(A) binding affinity. Because the stage of phosphorylation of the mRNA carrier (which is coupled with the NTPase within the intact NE structure) is inversely correlated with the activity of the NTPase, an enhancement of poly(A)-containing mRNA transport rate by insulin and an inhibition by EGF are observed.

Wheat embryo Ca2+-dependent protein kinase (CDPK) is inhibited by a variety of polypeptides including actin, gramicidin S, melittin, protamine, various histone preparations, histone H4 and by basic amino-acid homopolymers. Melittin (Ki 9 microM) is a non-competitive inhibitor of wheat germ CDPK and also inhibits wheat leaf CDPK and silver beet leaf CDPKs. Protamine inhibits wheat germ CDPK in an apparently competitive fashion (Ki 0.2 microM) and is also a potent, albeit less effective, inhibitor of the leaf CDPKs. Various basic amino-acid homopolymers are also potent, apparently competitive inhibitors of wheat embryo CDPK, namely poly(L-lysine) (IC50 2 nM), poly(L-ornithine) (IC50 3 nM) and poly(L-arginine) (IC50 17 nM) and also inhibit the leaf CDPKs, albeit at higher concentrations. Histone H4 and various calf thymus histone preparations inhibit wheat embryo CDPK in a fashion that is not competitive and calmodulin can substantially reverse such inhibition.

A protamine kinase has been purified to apparent homogeneity from extracts of the cytosol of bovine kidney cortex. This protamine kinase exhibited an apparent Mr = 43,000 as estimated by gel permeation chromatography on Sephacryl S-200 and an apparent Mr = 45,000 as determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The purified protamine kinase exhibited about 5% activity with casein, 8% with histone H2B, and less than 0.1% with histone H1, histone H4, glycogen synthase a from rabbit skeletal muscle, ovalbumin, bovine serum albumin, and phosvitin. The activity of the highly purified protamine kinase was unaffected by cyclic AMP (up to 0.1 mM), cyclic GMP (up to 0.1 mM), the heat-stable protein inhibitor of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (up to 100 micrograms/ml), heparin (up to 100 micrograms/ml), EGTA (up to 1 mM), Ca2+ (up to 1 mM), calmodulin (up to 0.5 microM) in the absence or presence of Ca2+ (0.05 mM), and phosphatidylserine (up to 40 micrograms/ml) and/or diolein (up to 1 microgram/ml) in the absence or presence of Ca2+ (up to 0.5 mM). Experiments in which extracts of kidney cytosol were incubated with [gamma-32P]ATP and MgCl2 revealed that the phosphorylation of numerous polypeptides was markedly increased in the presence of the purified protamine kinase. The results indicate that this protamine kinase of kidney cytosol is a novel protein kinase.

Rabbit peritoneal neutrophils were stimulated with either the chemotactic factor, fMet-Leu-Phe (10(-8) M, 10 s) or the protein kinase C activator, phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA), (0.1 microgram/ml, 3 min) at 37 degrees C, lysed with Triton X-100 at the indicated times and the histone H4 kinase activity of the lysate measured. The histone H4 protein kinase activity was increased severalfold by fMet-Leu-Phe but not PMA. The inclusion of the potent protein kinase C inhibitor, 1-(5-isoquinoline-sulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (50 microM) inhibited little if any of the histone H4 protein kinase activity. The effect of fMet-Leu-Phe was transient, maximum stimulation occurring within 10 s and decaying thereafter. The soluble fraction (extract) of the Triton X-100 lysates from control and fMet-Leu-Phe-treated cells was found to contain both histone H4 protein kinase and calcium-phospholipid-activated protein kinase (protein kinase C) activities. The histone H4 protein kinase activity obtained after fMet-Leu-Phe treatment was very little affected by calcium, phospholipid, and PMA and preferred histone H4 but not H1 or H2A as its substrate. In contrast, the calcium-phospholipid-activated protein kinase activity of the extract preferred histones H1 or H2A as substrates and was strongly inhibited by 1-(5-isoquinoline-sulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine. The histone H4 protein kinase was partially separated from kinase C by DEAE-cellulose and phenyl-Sepharose 4B chromatography. It phosphorylated mostly serine in histone H4. The results indicate that the chemotactic factor, fMet-Leu-Phe, stimulates a protein kinase with substrate specificity and biochemical properties distinct from calcium-phospholipid-activated protein kinase C.

A protein kinase specific for ribosomal protein S6 has been purified from eggs of Xenopus laevis. As visualized on a silver-stained polyacrylamide gel, the major protein in the preparation migrated with a Mr of 90,000. Incubation of the enzyme preparation with [gamma-32P]ATP led to phosphorylation of this protein on serine residues. Upon glycerol gradient centrifugation, the S6 kinase activity and the Mr 90,000 protein both sedimented with a Mr of 50,000-55,000. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis demonstrated that up to 4-5 phosphate groups per S6 molecule could be incorporated with this enzyme in vitro, and two-dimensional peptide mapping demonstrated that the phosphopeptides from S6 labeled in vitro with the enzyme comigrated with those from highly phosphorylated S6 labeled in vivo in response to progesterone treatment. The purified S6 protein kinase did not phosphorylate at a significant rate ribosomal protein S10, histone H1, histone H4, mixed histones, casein, or phosvitin, indicating a high degree of substrate specificity. These results indicate that activation of a single S6 protein kinase may be sufficient to account for increased S6 phosphorylation after a growth stimulus.

The activation of a cyclic AMP-independent protein kinase by an endogenous protease is described. The H4 phosphotransferase (Masaracchia, R. A., Kemp, B., and Walsh, D. A. (1977) J. Biol. Chem. 252, 7109-7117) from lymphosarcoma cells was isolated in a nonactive form. Activation required ATP and Mg2+ and was shown to be time-dependent. Although Mn2+ was capable of substituting for Mg2+ in the protein kinase reaction, no activation was observed when Mn2+ replaced Mg2+. The protein substrate histone H4 inhibited phosphotransferase activation at concentrations greater than 60 microM. The inhibition was complete in the presence of 100 microM H4. Comparable concentrations of bovine serum albumin did not inhibit the activation. The selective dependence on Mg2+ suggested separate activating and phosphotransferase activities. This was confirmed by heat denaturation in which the activation reaction was shown to be more sensitive to heat inactivation than was the phosphotransferase reaction. The activating enzyme was separated from the protein kinase by column chromatofocusing in the pH range 7-4. The pI of the activating enzyme was greater than 7.0. The pI values of the activated and nonactivated phosphotransferase were 4.8 and 5.3, respectively. The apparent molecular weight of the nonactivated phosphotransferase was 68,000; the activated enzyme was eluted from an S-200 Sephadex column with an apparent Mr = 52,000. Despite many similarities to a protease-activated Ca2+/phospholipid-dependent enzyme isolated from lymphocytes (Ogawa, Y., Takai, Y., Kawahara, Y., Kimura, S., and Nishizuka, Y. (1981) J. Immunol. 127, 1369-1374), the H4 phosphotransferase was not activated by Ca2+, phospholipids, or any combination thereof.

The specificity of the histone-H4-specific, protease-activated protein kinase (H4-PK) was examined using two series of synthetic peptides corresponding to the phosphorylation sites in histone H4 and pyruvate kinase. Optimum kinetic constants for phosphorylation were observed using the peptide Val-Lys-Arg-Ile-Ser-Gly-Leu. Peptides in which the Lys was replaced by Arg or the Lys-Arg sequence was transposed were phosphorylated with less favorable kinetics. Peptides with either basic residue deleted did not serve as substrates. Only the H4 peptide, containing an Arg-Arg sequence, was phosphorylated by the cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase (CA-PK). Distinct specificity determinants for H4-PK and CA-PK were also observed using the pyruvate kinase peptide (Leu-Arg-Arg-Ala-Ser-Leu-Gly). Collectively the data indicated that the primary substrate specificity determinants for H4-PK are Lys-Arg-Xaa-Ser whereas the CA-PK selectively phosphorylates the sequence Arg-Arg-Xaa-Ser.

Nuclear protein kinases include enzymes that transfer the gamma-phosphate of ATP to serine, threonine, lysine or histidine in proteins. Nuclear kinases with a preference for basic proteins are known as histone kinases; those preferring acidic protein substrates are casein kinases. Histone kinases include both cyclic AMP-independent protein kinases and cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinases. The best-characterized cyclic AMP-independent nuclear protein kinase is associated with cell proliferation and is activated (or transported to the nucleus) in G2 phase of the cell cycle. It phosphorylates specific serine and threonine residues in the non globular domains of histone H1 and appears to promote chromosome condensation. The cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase has unknown nuclear function(s), although it may be translocated from cytoplasm to nucleus in response to specific hormonal stimuli which are also associated with changes in transcriptional activity. There is a massive peak of nuclear cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase activity in G2 phase of the cell cycle. Nuclear casein kinases are apparently very heterogeneous. Two of these enzymes have been purified to homogeneity. They phosphorylate non-histone chromosomal proteins, including RNA polymerase and ornithine decarboxylase. Phosphorylated ornithine decarboxylase is inactive enzymatically but, in Physarum, it binds to the rDNA minichromosome and stimulates rRNA transcription. Kinases forming phosphoramidate bonds occur in a variety of rat tissues and form phosphohistide in histone H4 and phospholysine in histone H1.

Several neutrophil protein kinases that undergo changes in activity during Fc gamma RII activation have been investigated. These kinases include calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CAMPKII), mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), and histone H4 protein kinase (PKH4). They are rapidly and transiently activated in a dose-dependent manner by the cross-linking of Fc gamma RII. The activation of CAMPKII but neither PKH4 nor MAPK was inhibited by treating the cells with either a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, genistein, or an intracellular calcium chelator, BAPTA/AM. The superoxide production induced by cross-linking Fc gamma RII can be inhibited partially by various protein kinase inhibitors: 33% by protein kinase C inhibitor calphostin C, 30% by CAMPKII inhibitor KN-62, and 62% by tyrosine kinase inhibitor genistein. These results indicate that cross-linking of Fc gamma RII induces multiple signaling pathways that lead to the activation of various protein kinases. The activation of these kinases may be involved directly or indirectly in the regulation of superoxide production.
