The activities of Ca2+.phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase C) in rat salivary gland were assayed using synthetic peptide syntide-2(Pro-Leu-Ala-Arg-Thr-Leu-Ser-Val-Ala-Gly-Leu-Pro-Gly-Lys- Lys) as substrate. Levels of the protein kinase C were less than 0.05 units/g in the parotid and submandibular glands. The protein kinase C inhibitor, H-7, inhibited amylase secretion from rat parotid gland stimulated by PMA or the combination of phosphatidylserine and 1,2-diolein. The results supported the hypothesis of the secretory mechanism that protein kinase C mediates amylase secretion in rat parotid glands.

The phosphorylation sites of myelin basic protein from bovine brain were determined after phosphorylation with Ca2+-calmodulin-dependent protein kinase. Four phosphorylated peptides were selectively and rapidly separated by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography. Partial sequencing of the phosphorylated peptides by automated Edman degradation revealed that Ca2+-calmodulin-dependent protein kinase phosphorylated serine-16, serine-70, and threonine-95 specifically, as well as serine-115, which is located on the experimental allergic encephalitogenic determinant of the protein. Of the four amino acid sequences determined, two sequences surrounding phosphorylated amino acids, -Lys-Tyr-Leu-Ala-Ser(P)16-Ala- and -Arg-Phe-Ser(P)115-Trp-Gly-, have both sides of each phosphoserine residue occupied by hydrophobic amino acids, and a basic amino acid, arginine or lysine, is located at the position 2 or 4 residues amino-terminal to the phosphoserine residue. In contrast, the two other sequences surrounding phosphorylated amino acids, -Tyr-Gly-Ser(P)70-Leu-Pro-Glu-Lys- and -Ile-Val-Thr(P)95-Pro-Arg-, have a basic amino acid at the position 2 or 4 residues carboxyl-terminal to the phosphoamino acid residue.

The Paramecium tetraurelia mutants termed pantophobiacs have altered behavior due to perturbed calcium activation of ion channel activity. The calmodulin from pantophobiac A1 (pntA1) was shown in previous studies to have a single amino acid change at residue 101 that is selective in its effects on activity. This change has no effect on posttranslational modifications. However, the calmodulin from the phenotypically related mutant pantophobiac A2 (pntA2) has a threonine residue at position 136, in the fourth calcium-binding domain, instead of an isoleucine or valine like all other calmodulins. This region of the calmodulin structure is within 4 A of a complementary hydrophobic structure in the third calcium-binding domain, raising the possibility of a perturbation of interdomain interactions in the pntA2 mutant. This possibility is supported by the heterogenous methylation state of lysine-115 in the pntA2 calmodulin. This lysine residue, located in the peptide connecting calcium-binding domains three and four, is fully trimethylated in the wild-type and pntA1 calmodulins. The functional selectivity of these structural changes is demonstrated by the conservation of calmodulin activator activity with a calmodulin-regulated protein kinase that has been used as a standard of comparison. Overall, these results indicate the degree to which the calmodulin can be mutated in vivo without being lethal to the organism, and they provide genetic evidence suggesting that the post-translational methylation state of residue 115 requires the appropriate conformation in addition to the local amino acid sequence.

Rabbit myelin basic protein (MBP) was phosphorylated by a ganglioside-stimulated protein kinase to a stoichiometry of 1.4 and 2.1 mol phosphate/mol MBP in the presence and absence of GTlb, respectively. Two-dimensional peptide mapping analyses revealed that two of the sites of phosphorylation were distinct from those catalyzed by cAMP-dependent protein kinase or protein kinase C. Phosphorylation of one of these sites by ganglioside-stimulated protein kinase was inhibited by GTlb, suggesting that the inhibitory effect of gangliosides on MBP phosphorylation may be substrate-directed. Although ganglioside-stimulated protein kinase did not phosphorylate MBP at a domain containing residues 82-117, a synthetic peptide Arg-Phe-Ser-Trp-Gly-Ala-Glu-Gly-Gln-Lys corresponding to residues 111-120 was phosphorylated by the kinase in a ganglioside-stimulated manner. These findings suggest that the conformation of MBP may be important in determining its phosphorylatability.

In the absence of MgATP, the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase is irreversibly inhibited by the hydrophobic carbodiimide dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, and this inhibition is most likely due to the formation of a cross-link between a carboxyl group and a lysine residue in the active site (Toner-Webb & Taylor, 1987). In order to identify these cross-linked residues, the catalytic subunit was modified by dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and then treated with acetic anhydride and digested with trypsin. The resulting peptides were resolved by high-performance liquid chromatography. One major absorbing tryptic peptide and one smaller peptide consistently and reproducibly showed a decrease in absorbance after the catalytic subunit had been treated with DCCD. These peptides correspond to residues 166-190 and 57-93, respectively. A unique peptide was isolated from the modified catalytic subunit, and the sequence of this peptide established that the cross-linking occurred between Asp-184 and Lys-72. The cross-linking of these two residues, which were both identified previously as essential residues, confirms the likelihood that each plays a role in the functioning of this enzyme. The fact that Asp-184 and Lys-72 appear to be invariant in all protein kinases further supports the hypothesis that these two residues, located close to one another at the active site of the enzyme, play essential roles in catalysis.

In order to identify regions that are sensitive to substrate-induced perturbations, the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase was differentially labeled with [3H]acetic anhydride. Treatment of the catalytic subunit with acetic anhydride in the absence of substrates led to the irreversible inhibition of activity, and MgATP protected against inactivation. After development of a purification protocol for the lysine-containing peptides, the reactivity of each lysine in the native enzyme was calculated. The reactivity profile of lysines in the apoenzyme revealed three distinct regions. In general, the lysines within the amino-terminal segment (residues 1-83) and the carboxy-terminal segment (192-345) were relatively reactive. In contrast, the five lysines in the middle of the protein (Lys-92, -105, -111, -168, and -189) were very unreactive, indicating that these groups are sequestered from the aqueous solvent. The reactivity of each lysine was then determined in the presence of MgATP and in the presence of MgATP and a 20-residue inhibitor peptide. Most of the substrate-induced changes in lysine reactivity were localized in the amino-terminal segment, while the reactivities of lysines in the carboxy-terminal region were not altered significantly by MgATP or inhibitor peptide. MgATP affords substantial protection to three residues in particular. Lys-72, predicted previously to be essential for nucleotide binding was relatively reactive in the apoenzyme, whereas labeling was nearly abolished in the presence of MgATP.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

A retro-inverso analogue of the pseudosubstrate sequence, Arg-Phe-Ala-Arg-Lys-Gly-Ala25-Leu-Arg-Gln-Lys-Asn-Val (1), found in the regulatory domain of all protein kinase C (PKC) subspecies was synthesized. It shows to be an inhibitor (IC50 = 31 microM) of the phosphorylation, by PKC, of [Ala9.10,Lys11.12] glycogen synthase (1-12). Its analogue in which D Ala25 is replaced by D Ser is not a PKC substrate, but a more potent inhibitor, competitive with the peptidic substrate (IC50 = 5 microM, Ki = 2 microM). Both retro-inverso peptides are highly specific for PKC versus adenosine cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) and are totally stable towards proteolysis by trypsin or pronase.

The oncogene v-mos transforms mammalian fibroblasts and encodes a serine/threonine protein kinase. Expression of the c-mos protooncogene is most abundant in germ cells, suggesting a normal role for c-mos in meiosis. Here we describe the isolation of cDNA clones containing the complete coding region of the Xenopus laevis homolog of c-mos (mosxe). The mosxe gene is transforming when introduced into murine NIH 3T3 cells, and transformation is abrogated by a lysine-to-arginine mutation in the canonical ATP-binding site. Microinjection of in vitro transcribed mosxe RNA into prophase-arrested Xenopus oocytes causes a resumption of meiosis, leading to germinal vesicle breakdown and oocyte maturation. Oocyte maturation was not observed after microinjection of in vitro transcribed mosxe RNA encoding the lysine-to-arginine mutation. These results demonstrate that the mosxe-encoded protein can induce progression through the cell cycle for both meiotic and mitotic cells and that this property is dependent on the presumptive ATP-binding domain in the protein kinase.

ARPP-21 (cyclic AMP-regulated phosphoprotein, Mr = 21,000) is a cytosolic neuronal phosphoprotein that is highly enriched in regions of mammalian brain that receive dopaminergic innervation, in particular the striatum. The state of phosphorylation of ARPP-21 in brain slices prepared from rat striatum was shown to be regulated by 8-bromo-cyclic AMP. Phosphorylation occurred exclusively on seryl residues contained within a single tryptic phosphopeptide as analyzed by two-dimensional thin layer electrophoresis/chromatography. The tryptic phosphopeptide derived from ARPP-21 phosphorylated in intact cells comigrated with the tryptic phosphopeptide derived from purified ARPP-21 phosphorylated by the catalytic subunit of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase in vitro. Purified cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase catalyzed the incorporation of 1.1 mol of [32P]phosphate/mol of ARPP-21 exclusively on seryl residues. The amino acid sequence surrounding the site in purified ARPP-21 phosphorylated by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase in vitro was determined by analyzing two overlapping chymotryptic peptides isolated from [32P]phospho-ARPP-21 by reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography. A combination of gas phase and solid phase amino acid sequencing yielded a phosphorylation site sequence of -Glu-Arg-Arg-Lys-Ser(P)-Lys-Ser-Gly-Ala-Gly-. Initial rate studies of the phosphorylation of purified ARPP-21 by the catalytic subunit of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase yielded an apparent Km of 0.78 microM and a kcat of 2.2 s-1. A synthetic peptide based on the phosphorylation site of ARPP-21 was phosphorylated on the corresponding seryl residue with an apparent Km of 40 microM and a kcat of 4.0 s-1. These results are compatible with a physiological role for the phosphorylation of ARPP-21 by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase in vivo, regulated by first messengers acting via cyclic AMP, e.g. dopamine and vasoactive intestinal peptide.

In the presence of Ca2+ and glucose, calmodulin incorporates 2.5 mol of glucose/mol of protein. In the absence of Ca2+, only 1.5 mol of glucose is incorporated per mole of calmodulin. Glycation of calmodulin is associated with variable reductions in its capacity to activate three Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent brain target enzyme systems, including adenylyl cyclase, phosphodiesterase, and protein kinase. In addition, glycated calmodulin exhibits a 54% reduction in its Ca2+ binding capacity. Isolated CNBr cleavage fragments of glycated calmodulin suggest that glycation follows a nonspecific pattern in that each of seven available lysines is susceptible to modification. A limit observed on the extent of glycation appears related to the accompanying increase in negative charge on the protein. Glycation results in minimal structural rearrangements in calmodulin, and the Ca2+-induced increase in alpha-helix content and radius of gyration is the same for glycated and unmodified calmodulin. Since glycated calmodulin's Ca2+ binding capacity is reduced, this implies that the Ca2+-induced conformational changes in calmodulin do not require all four Ca2+ binding sites to be occupied. Examination of the lysine positions in calmodulin suggests that Ca2+ binding to domains II and IV is sufficient to induce these changes. The functional consequences of calmodulin glycation therefore cannot be attributed to inhibition of these conformational changes. An alternative explanation is that the inhibition arises from interference at the target enzyme binding site by bound glucose. While glycation shows minimal structural effects, a large pH dependence is observed for the alpha-helix content of unmodified calmodulin.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
