The dephosphorylation of phospho-amino acids with alkaline phosphatase (AlPase) from calf intestine or Escherichia coli and the phosphorylation of bovine serum albumin (BSA) with epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor kinase from human A431 epidermoid carcinoma cells were investigated by 31P NMR spectroscopy. The initial rates of the dephosphorylation of phospho-tyrosine (P-Tyr) and phosphoserine (P-Ser) with AlPase were essentially the same in the one-substrate system. In the two-substrate system (P-Tyr plus P-Ser), however, the ratio of the initial rate for P-Tyr vs. P-Ser was 2.4 to 4.5 depending on the buffer and pH conditions employed. This substantiates for the first time the specificity of AlPases to P-Tyr over P-Ser at the free amino acid level. In the stationary phase of the overall process, the dephosphorylation of P-Ser became slow compared to that of P-Tyr in the one-substrate system. The decrease in the rate for P-Ser was further pronounced in the two-substrate system. For this remarkable effect, the rephosphorylation of serine was responsible, as demonstrated in the reaction mixture containing serine, Pi, and AlPase. BSA phosphorylated by EGF receptor kinase exhibited sharp 31P resonances around 0 ppm at neutral pH, far distant from the peak positions (4.9 ppm) of histone H1 phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase. These NMR data are directed evidence that BSA was phosphorylated exclusively at the tyrosyl residues, whereas the phosphorylation of histone H1 was at the seryl residues.

Fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase was purified from yeast and separated from 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase and alkaline phosphatase. The enzyme released Pi from the 2-position of fructose 2,6-bisphosphate and formed fructose 6-phosphate in stoichiometric amounts. The enzyme displays hyperbolic kinetics towards fructose 2,6-bisphosphate, with a Km value of 0.3 microM. It is strongly inhibited by fructose 6-phosphate. The inhibition is counteracted by L-glycerol 3-phosphate. Phosphorylation of the enzyme by cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase causes inactivation, which is reversible by the action of protein phosphatase 2A.

In order to characterize the mechanism of activation of the enzyme 1-O-alkyl-2-lyso-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine:acetyl-CoA acetyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.67) which is the limiting step in the regulation of the synthesis of the potent inflammatory mediator 1-O-alkyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine; homogenates from human polymorphonuclear leukocytes were incubated in the presence of the catalytic subunit of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase and in the presence of a partially purified phospholipid sensitive, calcium-dependent protein kinase (PrKC). The first kinase was found to enhance up to 3-fold acetyltransferase activity in a dose- and time-dependent manner. In homogenates from PMN previously stimulated with complement-coated zymosan particles, the decay of acetyltransferase activity was partially prevented by the addition of soybean trypsin inhibitor and almost completely inhibited when the homogenates were supplemented with inhibitors of alkaline phosphatase such as 50 mM KF and 100 microM paranitrophenylphosphate. Under these conditions it was possible to initiate the decay of acetyltransferase activity by adding an excess of alkaline phosphatase. Preincubation of PMN with 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate previous or simultaneously to the addition of ionophore A23187 reduced the increase in acetyltransferase produced by ionophore A23187, whereas the generation of superoxide anions was enhanced. Addition of partially purified PrKC to homogenates from ionophore A23187-stimulated PMN, reduced acetyltransferase activity by 63%, whereas only a 16% inhibition was observed on homogenates from resting PMN. These data indicate the modulation of acetyltransferase activity in human polymorphonuclear leukocytes by a phosphorylation-dephosphorylation mechanism linked to cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. Phospholipid sensitive, calcium-dependent protein kinase seems not to be involved in the mechanism of activation, but, most probably, in the generation of negative activation signals.

The base exchange enzyme activities of rat brain microsomes were estimated subsequent to preincubations under conditions for either protein phosphorylation or dephosphorylation. Quantitatively the choline base exchange activity was most affected by these treatments. Exposure of the microsomes to alkaline phosphatase resulted in a decrease of all three base exchange activities. Pretreatment with a cAMP-dependent protein kinase resulted in increases of all 3 enzyme activities. Conditions favoring protein kinase C phosphorylation resulted in stimulation of the choline base exchange activity.

Arylsulfatase A was purified from human lung and human placenta to apparent homogeneity presented by electrophoresis in the absence and presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate. The enzyme from normal lung, placenta, and lung adenocarcinoma showed considerable charge heterogeneity when examined by isoelectrofocusing, with isoelectric point (pI) ranging from 5.1 to 4.6. The enzyme from adenocarcinoma was more heterogeneous and having more acidic components than the other enzyme. When the tumor enzyme was treated with exogenous sialidase, alkaline phosphatase, or endo-beta-N-acetylhexosaminidase H (endoglycosidase H), the acidic components of the enzyme shifted to the more alkaline region on the focussing gel. The banding pattern of the enzyme from normal tissues also changed to the more alkaline region when treated with exogenous hydrolase and showed almost the same pattern as hydrolase treated enzyme from adenocarcinoma. Combined treatment of the enzyme with endoglycosidase H and sialidase resulted in complete loss of the most acidic components to give the less acidic components with pI of 5.1.50. and 4.9. Cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase could not phosphorylate the protein moiety of arylsulfatase A even after the enzyme was treated with alkaline phosphatase. When an acidic fraction of the endoglycosidase H sensitive oligosaccharides from arylsulfatase A was treated with phosphatase, the acidic oligosaccharide fraction lost the negative charge on QAE-Sephadex chromatography. These results strongly suggest that the charge heterogeneity of arylsulfatase A is due not only to sialylation but also to phosphorylation at the carbohydrate moiety of the enzyme, and that the extent of substitution by acidic groups, sialic acid residue and phosphate residue, is markedly increased in the tumor enzyme.

Native, cell-surface insulin receptor consists of two glycoprotein subunit types with apparent masses of about 125,000 daltons (alpha subunit) and 90,000 daltons (beta subunit). The alpha and beta subunits are derived from a single polypeptide precursor by one or more proteolytic cleavages. The predominant subunit configuration in the native insulin receptor is a disulfide-linked heterotetrameric structure containing two alpha and two beta subunits. The alpha and beta insulin-receptor subunits seem to have distinct functions such that alpha appears to bind hormone whereas beta appears to possess intrinsic tyrosine kinase activity. In detergent extracts, insulin activates receptor autophosphorylation of tyrosine residues on its beta subunit, whereas in the presence of reductant, the alpha subunit is also phosphorylated. Other physiologically relevant substrates of the insulin receptor tyrosine kinase in target cells, if any, have not yet been identified. In intact cells, insulin activates serine/threonine phosphorylation of insulin receptor beta subunit as well as tyrosine phosphorylation. The biological role of the receptor-associated tyrosine kinase is not known. Tyrosine phosphorylation, catalyzed by either autophosphorylation or purified src kinase, of insulin receptor beta subunit in vitro activates the receptor kinase activity, whereas dephosphorylation with alkaline phosphatase deactivates the receptor kinase. The insulin receptor kinase is regulated by beta-adrenergic agonists and other agents that elevate cAMP in adipocytes, presumably via the cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Such agents decrease receptor affinity for insulin and partially uncouple receptor tyrosine kinase activity from activation by insulin. These effects appear to contribute to the biological antagonism between insulin and beta-agonists. The insulin receptor kinase is also inhibited in intact cells by phorbol esters that mediate serine/threonine phosphorylation of the insulin receptor, presumably via the Ca++-phospholipid-dependent protein kinase. These data suggest the hypothesis that a complex network of tyrosine and serine/threonine phosphorylations on the insulin receptor modulate its binding and kinase activities in an antagonistic manner.

The phosphorylation of Drosophila melanogaster DNA topoisomerase II by purified casein kinase II was characterized in vitro. Under the conditions used, the kinase incorporated a maximum of 2-3 molecules of phosphate per homodimer of topoisomerase II. No autophosphorylation of the topoisomerase was observed. The only amino acid residue modified by casein kinase II was serine. Apparent Km and Vmax values for the phosphorylation reaction were 0.4 microM topoisomerase II and 3.3 mumol of phosphate incorporated per min per mg of kinase, respectively. Phosphorylation stimulated the DNA relaxation activity of topoisomerase II by 3-fold over that of the dephosphorylated enzyme, and the effects of modification could be reversed by treatment with alkaline phosphatase. Therefore, this study demonstrates that post-translational enzymatic modifications can be used to modulate the interaction between topoisomerase II and DNA.

Purified alkaline phosphatase and plasma membranes from human liver were shown to dephosphorylate phosphohistones and plasma membrane phosphoproteins. The protein phosphatase activity of the liver plasma membranes was inhibited by levamisole, a specific inhibitor of alkaline phosphatase, and by phenyl phosphonate and orthovanadate, but was relatively insensitive to fluoride (50 mM). Endogenous membrane protein phosphatase activity was optimal at pH 8.0, compared to pH 7.8 for purified liver alkaline phosphatase. Plasma membranes also exhibited protein kinase activity using exogenous histone or endogenous membrane proteins (autophosphorylation) as substrates; this activity was cAMP-dependent. Autophosphorylation of plasma membrane proteins was apparently enhanced by phenyl phosphonate, levamisole, or orthovanadate. The dephosphorylation of phosphohistones by protein phosphatase 1 was not inhibited by levamisole but was inhibited by fluoride. Inhibition of endogenous protein phosphatase activity by orthovanadate during autophosphorylation of plasma membranes could be reversed by complexation of the inhibitor with (R)-(-)-epinephrine, and the dephosphorylation that followed was levamisole-sensitive. Neither plasma membranes nor purified liver alkaline phosphatase dephosphorylated glycogen phosphorylase a. These results suggest that the increased [32P]phosphate incorporation by endogenous protein kinases into the membrane proteins is due to inhibition of alkaline phosphatase and that the major protein phosphatase of these plasma membranes is alkaline phosphatase.

The insulin receptor is an integral membrane glycoprotein (Mr approximately 300,000) composed of two alpha-subunits (Mr approximately 130,000) and two beta-subunits (Mr approximately 95,000) linked by disulphide bonds. This oligomeric structure divides the receptor into two functional domains such that alpha-subunits bind insulin and beta-subunits possess tyrosine kinase activity. The amino acid sequence deduced from cDNA of the single polypeptide chain precursor of human placental insulin receptor revealed that alpha- and beta-subunits consist of 735 and 620 residues, respectively. The alpha-subunit is hydrophilic, disulphide-bonded, glycosylated and probably extracellular. The beta-subunit consists of a short extracellular region which links the alpha-subunit through disulphide bridges, a hydrophobic transmembrane region and a longer cytoplasmic region which is structurally homologous with other tyrosine kinases like the src oncogene product and EGF receptor kinases. The cellular function of insulin receptors is dual: transmembrane signalling and endocytosis of hormone. The binding of insulin to its receptor on the cell membrane induces transfer of signal from extracellular to cytoplasmic receptor domains leading to activation of cell metabolism and growth. In addition, hormone-receptor complexes are internalized leading to intracellular proteolysis of insulin, whereas receptors are recycled to the membrane. These phenomena are kinetically well-characterized, but their molecular mechanisms remain obscure. Insulin receptor in different tissues and animal species are homologous in their structure and function, but show also significant differences regarding size of alpha-subunits, binding kinetics, insulin specificity and receptor-mediated degradation. We suggest that this heterogeneity of receptors may be linked to the diversity in insulin effects on metabolism and growth in various cell types. The purified insulin receptor phosphorylates its own beta-subunit and exogenous protein and peptide substrates on tyrosine residues, a reaction which is insulin-sensitive, Mn2+-dependent and specific for ATP. Tyrosine phosphorylation of the beta-subunit activates receptor kinase activity, and dephosphorylation with alkaline phosphatase deactivates the kinase. In intact cells or impure receptor preparations, a serine kinase is also activated by insulin. The cellular role of two kinase activities associated with the insulin receptor is not known, but we propose that the tyrosine- and serine-specific kinases mediate insulin actions on metabolism and growth either through dual-signalling or sequential pathways.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Anti-human DNA polymerase alpha murine IgG SJK-287-38 [Tanaka, S., Hu, S.-Z., Wang, T. S.-F. & Korn, D. (1982) J. Biol. Chem. 257, 8386-8390] neutralized DNA polymerase alpha activity from rat embryonic fibroblasts infected with a temperature-sensitive transformation mutant of Rous sarcoma virus (tsLA24). After centrifugation of a crude cytosol fraction from log-phase cells in a 5-20% linear sucrose gradient, polypeptides of Mr approximately equal to 185,000 and 220,000 were immunoprecipitated only from gradient fractions containing DNA polymerase alpha activity. When similar cultures were incubated in medium containing [32P]orthophosphate, it was found that the Mr 220,000 protein was phosphorylated but that the other peptides specific for polymerase alpha activity did not contain detectable amounts of phosphate. Phospho amino acid analysis of the high molecular weight immunoprecipitable proteins indicated that the labeled amino acid was phosphoserine. Incubation of 2.5 units of crude DNA polymerase alpha with 4 units of agarose-immobilized alkaline phosphatase resulted in a nearly complete inhibition of DNA polymerase alpha activity. Subsequent incubation of this preparation with 5 or 50 microM ATP, but not the nonhydrolyzable analog adenosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate, restored the in vitro DNA polymerizing activity. These results demonstrate that a high molecular weight DNA polymerase alpha (Mr approximately equal to 220,000) is phosphorylated in cultured cells and that this protein is a substrate for a serine kinase rather than the tyrosine-specific protein kinase of Rous sarcoma virus. The results suggest that phosphorylation/dephosphorylation reactions modulate the activity of this polymerase.
