Inhibitor-1 is a protein which inhibits phosphorylase phosphatase only when it has been phosphorylated by cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase [Huang, F. L. and Glinsmann, W. H. (1976) Eur. J. Biochem. 70, 419--426]. Inhibitor-1 was purified by a heat treatment at 90 degrees C, precipitation with ammonium sulphate, chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, gel filtration on Sephadex G-100, and finally rechromatography of the phosphorylated protein on DEAE-cellulose, The protein was purified 4000-fold and 1.5 mg per 1000 g muscle was obtained in seven days corresponding to an overall yield of 15-20%. The purified protein was in a state approaching homogeneity as judged by the criteria of polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis and ultracentrifugal analysis. The concentration of inhibitor-1 in vivo was calculated to be 1.5 micron, which is at least as high as the concentration of phosphorylase phosphatase. The amino acid composition of inhibitor-1 showed several unusual features. Glutamic acid and proline accounted for nearly one third of the residues, tyrosine, tryptophan and cysteine were absent, and the content of aromatic amino acids was very low. The molecular weight measured by sedimentation equilibrium centrifugation was 19200 and by amino acid analysis was 20800. These values were lower than the mol. wt 26000 determined empirically by gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulphate, and much lower than the apparent molecular weight of 60000 estimated by gel filtration on Sephadex G-100. The gel filtration behaviour, stability to heating at 100 degrees C and amino acid composition suggest that inhibitor-1 may possess little ordered structure. The phosphorylated from of inhibitor-1 contained close to one molecule of covalently bound phosphate per mole of protein, which is consistent with the previous finding of a unique decapeptide sequence at the site of phosphorylation, Ile-Arg-Arg-Arg-Arg-Pro-Thr(P)-Pro-Ala-Thr- [Cohen, P., Rylatt, D. B. and Nimmo, G. A. (1977) FEBS Lett. 76, 182-186].the phosphorylated form of inhibitor-1 inhibited phosphorylase phosphatase activity (0.02U) by 50% at a concentration of only 7.0 nM in the standard assay, but the phosphorylated decapeptide was 1000-2000 times less effective as an inhibitor.

Light density membranes derived from the "microsomal" fraction of rat skeletal muscle contained an endogenous protein kinase which catalyzed the phosphorylation of an endogenous membrane substrate. No other membrane fraction contained any significant protein kinase activity. The optimal specific activity of the enzyme in these membranes was 350 pmol/mg/min. The endogenous muscle membrane protein kinase required magnesium, was stimulated by micromolar concentrations of calcium, had a pH optimum between 7.0 and 7.5, and demonstrated a K-m for ATP of 2.6 times 10 minus 5 M. The enzyme was markedly heat labile and demonstrated a linear Arrhenius plot with an apparent energy of activation of 12,100 cal/mol. There was no stimulation by cyclic nucleotides; and neither monovalent cations nor various neurotransmitters exerted any effect. It is presently unclear where the membranes exhibiting protein phosphorylation are localized within the muscle fiber. Enzyme markers suggest that these membranes are not derived from sarcolemma or sarcoplasmic reticulum but may originate in transverse tubules. The membrane phosphorylation was largely confined to a polypeptide with an apparent molecular weight of 28,000. Phosphorylation could also be detected in a lower molecular weight substrate as well as two polypeptides with apparent molecular weights of 95,000 and 56,000. The M-r-28,000 endogenous protein kinase substrate was isolated by preparative gel electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulfate. High voltage electrophoresis of a partial acid hydrolysate of the phosphorylated M-r-28,000 substrate identified the phosphate bond to be that of phosphoserine. The amino acid composition of the substrate was neither strongly acidic nor basic. It had a high content of glycine, glutamic acid, serine, and lysine. Hydrophobic residues constituted only 45% of the total composition. Following muscle denervation for 10 days, there was a significant decrease in the amount of the M-r-28,000 polypeptide as well as the extent of phosphorylation.

The Ag-NOR proteins are defined as markers of "active" ribosomal genes. They correspond to a set of proteins specifically located in the nucleolar organizer regions (NORs), but have not yet been clearly identified. We adapted the specific detection method of the Ag-NOR proteins to Western blots in order to identify these proteins. Using a purified protein, Western blots, and immunological characterization, the present study brings the first direct evidence leading to the identity of one Ag-NOR protein. We found that nucleolin is specifically revealed by Ag-NOR staining. Using different nucleolin fragments generated by CNBr cleavage and by overexpression in Escherichia coli, we demonstrate that the amino-terminal domain of nucleolin and not the carboxy-part of the protein is involved in silver staining. Moreover, as the pattern of staining does not vary using casein kinase II- and cdc2-phosphorylated nucleolin or dephosphorylated nucleolin, we conclude that the reduction of the silver ions is not linked to the phosphorylation state of the molecule. We propose that the concentration of acidic amino acids in the amino-terminal domain of nucleolin is responsible for Ag-NOR staining. This hypothesis is also supported by the finding that poly L-glutamic acid peptides are silver stained. These results provide data that can be used to explain the specificity of Ag-NOR staining. Furthermore, we clearly establish that proteolysis of the amino-terminal Ag-NOR-sensitive part of nucleolin occurs in vitro, leading to the accumulation of the carboxy-terminal Ag-NOR-negative part of the protein. We argue that this cleavage occurs in vivo as already proposed, bearing in mind that nucleolin is present in the fibrillar and in the granular component of the nucleolus, whereas no Ag-NOR staining is observed in the latter nucleolar component.

Osteopontin, bone sialoprotein, and bone acidic glycoprotein-75 are three acidic phosphoproteins that are isolated from the mineralized phase of bone matrix, are synthesized by osteoblastic cells, and are generally restricted in their distribution to calcified tissues. Although each is a distinct gene product, these proteins share aspartic/glutamic acid contents of 30-36% and each contains multiple phosphoryl and sialyl groups. These properties, plus a strict relationship of acidic macromolecules with cell-controlled mineralization throughout nature, suggest functions in calcium binding and nucleation of calcium hydroxyapatite crystal formation. However, direct proof for such roles is still largely indirect in nature. The purpose of this review is to present two speculative hypotheses regarding acidic phosphoprotein function. The goal was to use new sequence information along with database comparisons to develop a structural rationalization of how these proteins may function in calcium handling by bone. For example, our analysis has identified a conserved polyacidic stretch in all three phosphoproteins which we propose mediates metal binding. Also, conserved motifs were identified that are analogous with those for casein kinase II phosphorylation sites and whose number correlates well with that of phosphoryl groups/protein. A two-state conformational model of calcium binding by bone matrix acidic phosphoproteins is described which incorporates these findings.

Casein kinase-2 (CK-2) is a ubiquitous Ser/Thr specific protein kinase that recognizes phosphorylatable residues located upstream of acidic determinants, its consensus sequence being Ser(Thr)-Xaa-Xaa-Acidic. Here we show that the phosphotetrapeptide AcSer(P)-Ser(P)-Ser-Ser(P), which is devoid of the canonical consensus sequence, is nevertheless phosphorylated by CK-2 with rates comparable to that of typical peptide substrates Ser-Glu-Glu-Glu-Glu-Glu and Arg-Arg-Arg-Glu-Glu-Glu-Thr-Glu-Glu-Glu routinely employed for assaying CK-2 activity. The phosphopeptide AcSer(P)-Ser-Ser(P) [but not Ac-Ser-Ser(P)-Ser(P) or AcSer(P)-Ser(P)-Ser] is also phosphorylated albeit less efficiently than AcSer(P)-Ser(P)-Ser-Ser(P). Further N-terminal elongation with additional phosphoseryl residues to give the peptides AcSer(P)-Ser(P)-Ser(P)-Ser-Ser(P) and AcSer(P)-Ser(P)-Ser(P)-Ser(P)-Ser-Ser(P) does not improve but rather slightly decreases the phosphorylation efficiency by CK-2. These two peptides are conversely excellent substrates for CK-1, which does not appreciably phosphorylate either AcSer(P)-Ser-Ser(P) or AcSer-(P)-Ser(P)-Ser-Ser(P). Either individual or multiple replacement of the phosphorylated residues with glutamic acid in the peptide AcSer(P)-Ser(P)-Ser-Ser(P) drastically reduces the phosphorylation efficiency by CK-2, the phosphoseryl residue at position -2 playing an especially crucial role which cannot be surrogated by glutamyl residues.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

A second messenger-independent serine/threonine protein kinase from lactating goat mammary gland is purified and characterized. The purification steps include: homogenization, ultracentrifugation, ammonium sulphate precipitation, DEAE-Sepharose, phosphocellulose, hydrophobic and Mono Q columns. On the final step of purification the enzyme is revealed as a single band of mol wt 45,000 on silver-stained SDS-PAGE. Mg2+ and K+ are necessary for its optimum activity. Phosvitin and casein are substrates for the enzyme but kemptide, RRREEETEEE, protamine and histone mixture are all poorly phosphorylated. The kinase is inhibited by quercetin, heparin, random tyrosine- and glutamic acid-containing polymers, Ca2+, NaF, 2,3-bis-phosphoglycerate. 1 mM Mn2+ affects positively the basal level of the kinase activity but 5 mM Mn2+ completely suppress the effect of 10 mM Mg2+. Km of this enzyme for ATP is 1.57 microM and pH optimum is from 6 to 7. Isolation of this kinase is facilitated by its unusually high affinity for phosphocellulose.

Polypeptides rich in glutamic acid are strong inhibitors purified from isolated nuclei of Xenopus laevis oocytes of casein kinase II. The presence of tyrosine in these peptides greatly enhances their inhibitory capacity. Using casein as a substrate, copolyglu:tyr (4:1) has an I50 value of 20 nM, 250 fold lower than that of polyglutamic acid which is 5 microM. A similar large difference is observed when a synthetic peptide is used as substrate. The inhibition of copolyglu:tyr is competitive with casein and can be completely reversed by high ionic strength. The relative inhibitory capacity of the polypeptides tested, in descending order, is copolyglu:tyr (4:1) greater than copolyglu:tyr (1:1) greater than polyglu greater than copolyglu:phe (4:1) greater than copolyglu:ala (6:4) greater than copolyglu:leu (4:1). The high affinity for tyrosine-containing acid peptides is shared by rat liver and yeast casein kinase II so that it seems to be a general property of these enzymes.

A Mn2(+)-dependent serine/threonine protein kinase from rat liver membranes copurifies with the insulin receptor (IR) on wheat germ agglutinin (WGA)-sepharose. The kinase is present in a nonactivated form in membranes but can be activated 20-fold by phosphorylating the WGA-sepharose fraction with casein kinase-1 (CK-1), casein kinase-2 (CK-2), or casein kinase-3 (CK-3). The activated kinase can use IR beta-subunit, myelin basic protein, and histones as substrates. Activation of the kinase seems to proceed by two or more steps. Sodium vanadate and Mn2+ are required in reaction mixtures for activation to be observed, whereas the tyrosine kinase-specific substrate, poly (glu, tyr), completely inhibits activation. These observations suggest that, in addition to serine/threonine phosphorylation by one of the casein kinases, activation of the Mn2(+)-dependent protein kinase also requires tyrosine phosphorylation. Such phosphorylation may be catalyzed by the IR tyrosine kinase.

Rat brain type II (beta) protein kinase C (PKC) was phosphorylated by rat lung casein kinase II (CK-II). Neither type I (gamma) nor type III (alpha) PKC was significantly phosphorylated by CK-II. CK-II incorporated 0.2-0.3 mol of phosphate into 1 mol of type II PKC. This phosphate was located at the single seryl residue (Ser-11) in the V1-variable region of the regulatory domain of the PKC molecule. A glutamic acid cluster was located at the carboxyl-terminal side of Ser-11, showing the consensus sequence for phosphorylation by CK-II. The velocity of this phosphorylation was enhanced by the addition of Ca2+, diolein, and phosphatidylserine, which are all required for the activation of PKC. Phosphorylation of casein or synthetic oligopeptides by CK-II was not affected by Ca2+, diolein, or phosphatidylserine. Available evidence suggests that CK-II phosphorylates preferentially the activated form of type II PKC. It remains unknown, however, whether this reaction has a physiological significance.

A 1,820 bp full-length clone encoding for a new human protein was isolated from a lambda gt11 placental cDNA library using anti-human hexokinase antibodies. The cDNA complete sequence includes a 12 bp 5' non-coding region, a single open reading frame encoding a protein of 55 KDa (HP-10) and a 177 bp non-coding with two putative polyadenylation signals upstream of 3' poly(A)tail. The deduced amino acid sequence reveals a sequence of 492 amino acids that contains a stretch of 7 glutamic acid from position 169 and one potential glycosylation site at position 274. Although antibodies against hexokinase recognize the fusion protein and antibodies against the fusion protein recognize hexokinase, HP-10 is not human hexokinase, by a number of criteria including the alignment of determined amino acid sequences. In searching for a possible functional role of HP-10 its cDNA was inserted into a procaryotic vector which allows the expression of the non-fused protein. Bacteria expressing the HP-10 encoded protein were isolated and found to have a dramatic increase in endogenous phosphorylated proteins. Since HP-10 does not have a protein kinase activity per se it should be considered a new regulatory phosphorylation protein which is active in E. coli.
