The synthetic phosphotyrosyl tridecapeptide H-Arg-Leu-Ile-Glu-Asp-Asn-Glu-Tyr(P)-Thr-Ala-Arg-Gln-Gly-OH, reproducing a major phosphoacceptor site of protein tyrosine kinases of the src-family, can be phosphorylated at Thr-9 by both casein kinases -1 and -2. Its shorter derivative H-Asn-Glu-Tyr(P)-Thr-Ala-OH is not affected by casein kinase-1 while representing a substrate as good as the tridecapeptide for casein kinase-2. The unphosphorylated analogue H-Asn-Glu-Tyr-Thr-Ala-OH, however, is a much poorer substrate, and no significant phosphorylation could be observed of its O-methyl ether derivative H-Asn-Glu-Tyr(Me)-Thr-Ala-OMe. These data on one side corroborate the concept that casein kinase-1 recognizes residues located on the C-terminal edge of acidic stretches, providing, on the other, the evidence that phosphotyrosyl side chains can act as specificity determinants for casein kinase-2.

Recordings of [Ca2+]i in single AR42J cells loaded with Fura 2 were used to study regulation of [Ca2+]i oscillation. Continuous stimulation with the cholecystokinin analogue, (t-butyloxycarbonyl-Tyr-(SO3)-norleucine-Gly-Trp-Nle-Asp-2-phenylethyl ester) or carbachol evoked long lasting oscillation in [Ca2+]i. Removal of CCK-JMV-180 after brief stimulation did not abruptly stop the oscillation. Rather, removal of CCK-JMV-180 resulted in time-dependent reduction in amplitude with little change in frequency of oscillation. The patterns of [Ca2+]i oscillation were affected by activation of protein kinase C and protein kinase A. However, down-regulation of protein kinase C activity did not prevent stimulation of [Ca2+]i oscillation. Hence, we conclude that an active protein kinase C pathway is not crucial for [Ca2+]i oscillation in this cell line. Variation in extracellular Ca2+ concentration (Ca2+out) was used to further characterize the oscillation. Reducing Ca2+out to approximately 10 microM resulted in a time dependent inhibition of [Ca2+]i oscillation. Subsequent step increases in Ca2+out up to 2-3 mM resulted in increased amplitude and frequency of oscillation. Further increase in Ca2+out or an increase in plasma membrane permeability to Ca2+, brought about by an increase in pHo, resulted in increased amplitude, decreased frequency, and modified shape of the [Ca2+]i spikes. These observations point to the existence of regulatory mechanisms controlling the duration of Ca2+ release and entry during [Ca2+]i oscillation.

We studied the effects of various protein kinase inhibitors on the attachment of mouse lung carcinoma 3LL cells to the fibronectin (FN) substratum. Calmodulin antagonists (W-7 and W-13) and myosin light chain kinase inhibitors (ML-7 and ML-9) exhibited the inhibitory effect for the attachment, while inhibitors of protein kinases A and C were ineffective. Since Arg-Gly-Asp-containing hexapeptide blocked the attachment, cell surface FN receptor appeared to be involved in this mechanism. These results support the hypothesis that the cell attachment requires the rearrangement of the cytoskeleton in association with the phosphorylation of myosin light chain which would lead to the clustering of the cell surface FN receptors.

The GPA1 gene of S. cerevisiae encodes a G alpha subunit that plays a positive role in the transduction of signals stimulating recovery from pheromone-induced cell cycle arrest. The GPA1Val50 mutation, in which Gly-50 is replaced by valine, causes hyperadaptation to pheromone. However, GPA1Val50 cells do not recover from division arrest in the absence of both CLN1 and CLN3, which encode G1 cyclins, indicating that the recovery-promoting activity of GPA1Val50 requires the function of G1 cyclins. An sgv1 mutation suppresses the hyperadaptive response caused by GPA1Val50 and also confers cold- and temperature-sensitive growth. The SGV1 gene encodes an apparent protein kinase homologous to CDC28/cdc2 kinase: SGV1 is 42% identical to CDC28. The activated mutation, CLN3-2, partially suppresses the growth defect of sgv1, suggesting that the SGV1 and CLN3 proteins may act in the same growth control pathway.

Each regulatory (R) subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase contains an autoinhibitor site that lies approximately 90-100 residues from the amino terminus. In order to study the importance of this autoinhibitor site in the type I R-subunit for interacting with the catalytic (C) subunit, recombinant techniques were used to replace Ala-97 with Gln, His, Lys, and Arg and to replace Ser-99 with Gly and Lys. All of the mutant proteins having a replacement at Ala-97 showed reduced affinity for the C-subunit ranging from 14- to 55-fold. In general, the decrease in affinity of the Ala-97 mutants for the C-subunit correlated with the increase in size of the side chain. In contrast to wild type R-subunit, where MgATP facilitates holoenzyme formation, MgATP inhibits the reassociation in all of the Ala-97 mutants suggesting that the larger side chains sterically interfere with bound MgATP in the active site of the C-subunit. Whereas MgATP slowed holoenzyme formation, AMP actually accelerated the reassociation of the A97K, A97H (pH 6.0), and A97Q mutants with the C-subunit. Therefore, the side chains of Lys-97, His-97, and Gln-97 can interact either electrostatically or by hydrogen bonding with the phosphate of AMP. This interpretation is reinforced by the fact that the stimulatory effect of AMP on the A97H mutant was pH-dependent. The affinities of the S99G and S99K mutants for the C-subunit were reduced 7- and 24-fold, respectively, suggesting that Ser-99 also may contribute to interactions between the R- and C-subunits.

Mutations in regulatory (R) subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase were analyzed from cAMP-resistant mutants of S49 mouse lymphoma cells by direct sequencing of amplified regions of mutant R subunit cDNAs. Eight distinct single base-change lesions were identified in 24 independent mutants that were hemizygous for expression of mutant R subunits with altered protein charge. CG----TA transitions predominated, but AT----GC transitions and GC----TA transversions were also observed. Four of five spontaneous mutants had identical C----T transitions at CG causing substitution of Trp for Arg-334. Sites mutated in isolates obtained after mutagenesis with ethyl methanesulfonate or N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine were more varied. Six of the lesions (two in binding site A and four in site B) were at amino acid residues that are highly conserved among cAMP-binding sites of R subunits and the Escherichia coli catabolite activator protein. These mutations all either prevented or strongly hindered binding of cyclic nucleotides to the mutated site. One of the remaining lesions (at Arg-242) also prevented cyclic nucleotide binding to the mutated binding site; the other (at Gly-170) had only minimal effects on binding of cyclic nucleotides but, nevertheless, increased the apparent constant for cAMP-dependent kinase activation. These results are discussed with reference to a model for the cAMP-binding sites of R subunit based on the crystal structure of the E. coli catabolite activator protein.

We identified the sites on vimentin that are phosphorylated by Ca2(+)-calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaM-kinase II). Sequential analysis of the purified phosphopeptides demonstrated that the sites are -Thr-Arg-Thr-Tyr-Ser(PO4)38-Leu-Gly-Ser-Ala- and -Val-Arg-Leu-Leu-Gln-Asp-Ser(PO4)82-Val-Asp-, which are located within the amino-terminal head domain of vimentin. For Ser-82 but not Ser-38, the proposed CaM-kinase II recognition amino acid sequence (Arg-X-X-Ser/Thr) was not found. Studies with a series of synthetic peptide analogs corresponding to Ser-82 and its surrounding amino acid sequence indicate that Asp-84 acts as an essential substrate specificity determinant for the Ser-82 phosphorylation by CaM-kinase II. The CaM-kinase II recognition site may be more extensive than heretofore determined.

Autophosphorylation of calmodulin (CaM)-dependent protein kinase II (CaM-kinase II) under limiting conditions (2 microM ATP) decreased progressively with increasing concentrations of a substrate, Pro-Leu-Ala-Arg-Thr-Leu-Ser-Val-Ala-Gly-Leu-Pro-Gly-Lys-Lys (syntide-2), suggesting a competition between the substrate and the autophosphorylation site(s) of the enzyme. The rate and extent of the generation of Ca2+/CaM-independent activity of the enzyme by autophosphorylation were also decreased by the presence of syntide-2. The syntide-2 phosphorylation in the presence of Ca2+/CaM under the limiting conditions reached a steady state, after a lag, when the Ca2+/CaM-independent activity reached a plateau. A linear relationship was observed between the activities in the presence and absence of Ca2+/CaM of the enzyme which had undergone various degrees of autophosphorylation, and the extrapolation of activity in the absence of Ca2+/CaM to zero gave 15-20% of the maximum activity. The steady-state rate of syntide-2 phosphorylation in the presence of Ca2+/CaM by the enzyme that had not undergone prior autophosphorylation was decreased by high concentrations of syntide-2 which suppressed autophosphorylation as well as the generation of Ca2+/CaM-independent activity. These results suggest that although the nonautophosphorylated enzyme possesses a basal low level of Ca2+/CaM-dependent activity, autophosphorylation is required for full activation.

The present work describes the detection, purification, and characterization of a serine endopeptidase with preference for a phosphoserine in the P1' position of the substrate. During probing for the enzyme in crude extracts, as well as during its 64,000-fold purification, 32P-labeled guanidovaleryl-Arg-Ala-Ser(P)-isobutyl amide (I) was used to measure the cleavage of the Ala-Ser(P) bond. With this substrate, kcat was 1.7 s-1 and Km was 30 microM at the pH optimum, 7.5. The enzyme was classified as a serine peptidase from its reaction with a set of inhibitors, among which diisopropyl fluorophosphate was effective at low (20 microM) concentration. The endopeptidase showed an Mr of 74,000 under native as well as denaturing and reducing conditions, indicating that the native enzyme consists of only one major polypeptide chain. The molecular size and inhibition profile suggested identity of this enzyme with prolyl endopeptidase (EC 3.4.21.26). This was supported by its activity against specific substrates, such as succinyl-Gly-Pro-Leu-Pro-7-amido-4-methylcoumarin (kcat = 7.2 s-1 and Km = 290 microM), and by the inhibition of the latter activity by I. Compared with the cleavage of 100 microM I, Gly-Val-Leu-Arg-Arg-Ala-Ser-Val-Ala-Gln-Leu, after phosphorylation by cAMP-dependent protein kinase, was cleaved at the Ala-Ser(P) bond at a relative rate of 0.43, while cleavage of the Ala-Ser bond of the unphosphorylated undecapeptide was undetectable, i.e. less than 0.03. The pentapeptide Arg-Arg-Pro-Ser-Val was rapidly cleaved at the Pro-Ser bond (relative rate, 2.2). Still, the cleavage of the Pro-Ser(P) bond of the corresponding phosphorylated pentapeptide was even higher (relative rate, 4.0). These data suggest that phosphorylation of a serine residue in the P1' position of at least a few substrates of prolyl endopeptidase will increase the rate of their cleavage.

The chicken bone phosphoprotein (approximately 66-kDa BPP) is a major noncollagenous component of bone and is the major phosphoprotein synthesized by cultured chicken embryo osteoblasts [Gotoh, Y., Gerstenfeld, L. C., & Glimcher, M. J. (1990) Eur. J. Biochem. 87, 49-58]. A cDNA clone for this protein was isolated from an expression library made from embryonic chicken bone mRNA. The complete primary protein sequence of 264 amino acids was deduced from the cDNA sequence inclusive of a 16 amino acid signal peptide sequence and terminated by 4 in-frame stop sequences. A sequence alignment indicated an approximate 35% overall similarity in protein sequence between the avian approximately 66-kDa BPP and the mammalian protein osteopontin, while at the nucleotide level 60% similarity was observed. Features of this sequence which showed the greatest similarity to mammalian osteopontin included a region in which seven of nine consecutive residues are aspartic acid, a recognition sequence for integrin-mediated cell binding (-Arg-Gly-Asp), and four possible recognition sequences for phosphorylation by casein kinase II. Hybridization analysis indicated a message of 1.5 kb found predominantly in bone and kidney. The mRNA was inducible in phorbol ester treated primary cultures of chondrocytes which show no expression under normal growth conditions. A temporal induction was seen during osteoblastic differentiation both in vivo and in vitro, thus suggesting that regulation of the approximately 66-kDa BPP is under transcriptional control during osteoblast development. In summary, both the protein's primary structure and its biological features suggest that it is the avian homologue to mammalian protein osteopontin.
