In crude extracts of adipose tissue the protein kinase dissociates slowly at 30 degrees into regulatory and catalytic subunits in the presence of 700 mug per ml of histone or 0.5 M NaCl. If the kinase is first dissociated by adding 10 muM adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cAMP), reassociation occurs instantaneously after removal of the cAMP by Sephadex G-25 chromatography. In contrast, in crude xtracts of heart, the protein kinase dissociates rapidly in the presence of 700 mug per ml of histone or 0.5 M NaCl and reassociates slowly after removal of cAMP. These differences are accounted for by the existence of two types of protein kinases in these tissues, referred to as types I and II. DEAE-cellulose chromatography of extracts of adipose tissue produces only one peak of cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity (type II) which elutes between 0.15 and 0.25 M NaCl. Similar chromatography of heart extracts resolves enzyme activity into two peaks; a type I enzyme which elutes between 0.05 and 0.1 M and predominates (greater than 75% of total activity), and a type II enzyme which elutes between 0.15 and 0.25 M NaCl. The dissociation properties of the types I and II enzymes from heart and adipose tissue are retained after partial purification by DEAE-cellulose and Sepharose 6B chromatography. Rechromatography of the separated peaks of the cardiac enzymes does not change the elution pattern. Sucrose density gradient centrifugation and gel filtration studies indicate that the molecular weights of these enzymes are very similar. The type II enzyme isolated by DEAE-cellulose chromatography of heart extracts resembles the adipose tissue enzyme, i.e. it undergoes slow dissociation at 30 degrees in the presence of histone or 0.5 M NaCl. The adipose tissue kinase and the heart type II kinase are not identical, however, since they do not elute at exactly the same point on DEAE-cellulose columns. A survey of several tissues indicates the presence of type I and II protein kinases similar to the enzymes in adipose tissue and heart as determined by DEAE-cellulose chromatography of crude extracts and by dissociation of the enzymes with histone. The presence of MgATP prevents dissociation of type I enzyme from heart by 0.5 M NaCl or histone. The profile of the enzyme on DEAE-cellulose, however, is not changed...

Thyroxine control of cAMP-independent histone and casein phosphokinase activities was studied in thyroidectomized rats treated with thyroxine. All activities were evaluated in the presence of a thermostable inhibitor of cAMP-dependent enzymes. Cytosol enzymes can be resolved by sucrose gradient ultracentrifugation into three peaks of histone kinase activity (3.2S, 5S and 7.2S) and two peaks of casein kinases (3.6S and 7.1S). Neither thyroidectomy nor subsequent treatment of operated animals with thyroxine modifies the total histone kinase activity estimated, either in total cytosol or after its fractionation by the sucrose gradient ultracentrifugation. The activity ratios of different peaks were, however, changed. Casein kinase activity was significantly decreased after thyroidectomy (about 50%). Subsequent treatment with thyroxine restored this activity to its initial value. Sucrose gradient ultracentrifugation analysis showed that thyroxine action on the casein kinase activity is very specific. Only molecules that sediment in the 9S region were significantly stimulated by the hormone. Cortisol action on the casein kinase activity was studied in adrenalectomized animals treated with hormone for 24 h. Cortisol decreases the total casein kinase activity by about 30%. Sucrose gradient ultracentrifugation analysis showed that the population of molecules sedimenting at about 9S was the most sensitive to cortisol. The above data show that both thyroxine and cortisol control, in a selective way, the activities of cAMP-independent protein kinases. The same kinase molecules can be under double control by two different hormones that have opposite effects.

Plasma membrane fractions I and II isolated from bovine corpus luteum contain phosphoprotein phosphatases. Enzyme activities associated with both membrane fractions showed pH optima in the neutral range and were most active with phosphoprotamine as the exogenous substrate. The enzyme activity was partially inhibited by Co2+, Zn2+ and Fe2+. Dithioerythritol, glutathione (reduced) and 2-mercaptoethanol stimulated the enzyme activity, whereas N-ethylmaleimide and N-phenylmaleimide were inhibitory. Similarly, various cyclic nucleotides and nuclsoside triphosphates also inhibited phosphoprotein phosphatase activities. The phosphatase activity was also observed with endogenous phosphorylated membrane proteins as substrate. The endogenous phosphorylation of membranes was rapid and attained a maximal level after 15--20 min of incubation. Initially endogenous dephosphorylation was also very rapid, but did not reach completion. In addition to phosphoprotein phosphatase, membrane preparations also possessed very active cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase activity. Phosphoprotein phosphatase activity from plasma membranes was solubilized by ionic and nonionic detergents. Optimal solubilization was achieved with 0.1% sodium deoxycholate. Sucrose density gradient centrifugation of deoxycholate-solubilized fraction I and fraction II membranes resolved phosphoprotein phosphatase activity into two species with apparent sedimentation coefficients of 6.7 S (Mr 130000) and 4.8 S (Mr 90000). Cyclic-AMPstimulated protein kinase activity sedimented as a broad peak with a sedimentation coefficient of 5.5 S (Mr 110000).

A casein kinase was isolated and purifed from rabbit reticulocytes. About 90% of the enzyme activity co-sedimented with the ribosomal fraction, whereas about 10% of the enzyme activity was found in the ribosome-free supernatant. Both casein kinases (the ribosome-bound enzyme as well as the free enzyme) showed identical activity and the same molecular weight. On sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis a single band of about 70 000 mol.wt. was observed. Sucrose-gradient analysis, however, showed that the enzyme activity sedimented with a s20,w of approx. 7.5S. This observation suggested that the casein kinase is a dimer composed of subunits of identical molecular weight. The enzyme utilizes GTP as well as ATP as a phosphoryl donor. It preferentially phosphorylates acidic proteins, in particular the model substrates casein and phosvitin. Casein kinase is cyclic AMP-indepenoent. The Km values for ATP and GTP with phosvitin as a substrate were determined as 1.2 and 8.8 micrometer respectively.

We found that a preparation of the 90-kDa heat shock protein, HSP90, purified to apparent homogeneity, contains a serine/threonine kinase which phosphorylates HSP90. The protein kinase was identified as casein kinase II (CKII) according to its properties. The protein kinase was separable from HSP90 by adsorption to heparin-Sepharose or phosphocellulose. CKII was coimmunoprecipitated with HSP90 by anti-HSP90 antibodies from cell extracts. Sucrose density gradient centrifugation analysis revealed that an addition of anti-HSP90 antibodies to cell extracts induces a shift of the sedimentation peak of CKII toward the bottom of a centrifuge tube. These results suggest that CKII is associated with HSP90 in cell lysates at low salt conditions. Furthermore, the CKII.HSP90 complex was reconstituted from purified HSP90-free CKII and CKII-free HSP90. In a buffer at low ionic strength, CKII forms large aggregates, but HSP90 dissociates the aggregates. Finally, we found that HSP90 activates CKII; an addition of HSP90 to CKII dramatically increased phosphorylation of exogenous substrates as well as the CKII beta subunit. Taken altogether, these observations suggest that CKII is structurally and functionally active when it forms a complex with HSP90.

Rat caput and cauda epididymal sperm cAMP-dependent and cAMP-independent protein kinase activity was determined in three buffers with and without calcium. In all buffers, higher enzymatic activity for both enzymes was found in cauda than in caput sperm. Maximum protein kinase activities were found in a sucrose-magnesium phosphate buffer. A Krebs Ringer phosphate buffer distinguished cAMP-dependent and cAMP-independent activity in cauda but not caput sperm. Sucrose-TRIS buffer was shown to be of little value for measuring enzyme activity in either cell type. When protein phosphorylation was examined with 0.5 mM calcium and 2.5 mM cAMP, inhibition of both caput and cauda sperm phosphorylation occurred. When cAMP concentration was lowered to microM, or nM, or pM levels, cAMP-dependent protein phosphorylation was restored.

The interaction between antibodies directed against RNA polymerase I purified from Morris hepatoma 3924A and homologous RNA polymerase II was investigated. The activity of partially purified polymerase II was inhibited by the antibodies. In contrast, the reaction catalyzed by the purified enzyme was not affected. Partially purified polymerase II preparations contained a protein kinase activity. Sucrose gradient centrifugation in the presence of 0.3 M KCl resulted in complete separation of RNA polymerase II from protein kinase as well as in complete loss of sensitivity to the anti-RNA polymerase I antibodies. The protein kinase possessed reaction characteristics similar to those of the NII protein kinase (Rose, K.M., Bell, L.E., Siefken, D.A. and Jacob, S.T. (1981) J. Biol. Chem. 256, 7468-7477) which is associated with hepatoma RNA polymerase I (Rose, K.M., Stetler, D.A. and Jacob, S.T. (1981) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 78, 2833-2837). The activities of both kinases were inhibited to the same extent by anti-RNA polymerase I antibodies and polypeptides of Mr 42 000 and 25 000, present in both kinase preparations, formed immune complexes with the antisera. Readdition of protein kinase NII to purified polymerase II resulted in phosphorylation of the polymerase and a concomitant enhancement of RNA synthesis. After addition of the kinase, RNA polymerase II activity was again sensitive to anti-RNA polymerase I antibodies. Upon reacting with protein kinase NII, RNA polymerase II polypeptides could be detected in immune complexes with anti-RNA polymerase I antibodies. These data indicate that protein kinase NII is associated with RNA polymerase II during early stages of purification and is at least partially responsible for the immunological cross-reactivity of RNA polymerases I and II.

The abilities of cyclic adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cAMP) and cyclic 8-azidoadenosine 3':5'-[32P]monophosphate (8-N3-[32P]cAMP) to bind to the regulatory subunit (RII) of the type II cAMP-dependent protein kinase isozyme and to cause subsequent dissociation of the holoenzyme were compared in extracts from adult and neonatal mouse lung and lung adenoma. RII in extracts from adult lung exhibits equal numbers of high- (Kd 15 nM) and low- (Kd 230 nM) affinity 8-N3-[32P]cAMP binding sites. In the neonate, the proportion of high-affinity sites is reduced to 20% while, in lung adenoma, only low-affinity RII binding is observed. Low-affinity RII binding is correlated with an inability of cAMP to dissociate the type II holoenzyme completely. Sucrose gradient sedimentation of adult lung cytosol in the presence of cAMP shows complete dissociation of the type I isozyme, while only some of the type II holoenzyme is dissociated. This is in contrast to the case with lung tumor cytosol, in which only low-affinity binding is observed and no apparent dissociation of the type II isozyme occurs. cAMP does promote RII dephosphorylation within the holoenzyme, however, suggesting that cAMP can bind to RII without dissociating the tetramer. Consistent with this interpretation, photoincorporation of 8-N3-[32P]cAMP prior to sucrose gradient sedimentation results in the formation of a photolabeled RII complex which sediments at the same rate as does the holoenzyme. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis of RII photolabeled at low and high concentrations of 8-N3-[32P]cAMP suggests that these altered binding and dissociation characteristics of the type II isozyme are not due to the presence of a structurally altered RII molecule. After DEAE-cellulose chromatography of lung cytosol, only high-affinity RII binding is observed, and all of the RII can now be dissociated with cAMP. Low-affinity binding may thus reflect either an altered conformational state of RII or the interaction of the type II kinase with other cytosolic molecules which can affect RII binding and dissociation without altering the functional properties of the type I isozyme.

A novel autophosphorylating protein kinase, autophosphorylating protein kinase 500, independent of cyclic AMP, cyclic GMP, calcium, and calmodulin was purified from rat adrenocortical carcinoma 494 by ammonium sulfate fractionation followed by the chromatographic steps of DEAE-cellulose, gel filtration, cyclic AMP-epoxy Sepharose, and phosphocellulose. Sometimes two additional chromatographic purification steps of chromatofocusing and gel filtration were necessary for complete purification. The enzyme was homogeneous as evidenced by one- and two-dimensional sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Sucrose density sedimentation studies indicated that Mr of the enzyme was 490,000, while ultracentrifugal analysis demonstrated a value of 481,400 (+/-7%). The protein was composed of two identical subunits each with Mr = 250,000. The enzyme molecule was slightly asymmetric with frictional and sedimentation coefficients of 1.28 and 18.20, respectively, and a Stokes radius of 66 A. Isoelectric focusing electrophoresis revealed a single peak with pI 4.6, indicating acidity of the protein. The enzyme self phosphorylated one or more of its serine residues. The reaction utilized the terminal phosphate of ATP; GTP was inactive. Divalent cations (5 mM Mn2+ or 10 mM Mg2+) were essential for optimum activity. Autophosphorylating protein kinase 500 did not phosphorylate the commonly used exogenous substrates such as histones, casein, phosvitin, or protamine. Analysis of autophosphorylating protein kinase 500 with rabbit anti-autophosphorylating protein kinase 500 IgG by immunoelectrophoresis and crossed immune electrophoresis demonstrated single arcs of precipitation, confirming the biochemical demonstration of enzyme purification and homogeneity. Indirect immunofluorescence studies revealed an intracytoplasmic localization of the enzyme in cultured and freshly isolated adrenocortical carcinoma 494 cells. Both cell types revealed an intensity of perinuclear enzyme fluorescence, but an absence of the enzyme in the nuclei or nucleoli. The anti-autophosphorylating protein kinase 500 IgG blocked the self-catalyzed phosphorylation of autophosphorylating protein kinase 500, providing immunological support of the biochemical results that autophosphorylation is an intrinsic characteristic of the enzyme. When autophosphorylating protein kinase 500 was incubated with membrane-bound ribosomes, it phosphorylated a Mr = 31,000 protein. This phosphorylation was blocked by the anti-autophosphorylating protein kinase 500 IgG.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

The protein substrate specificity of a calmodulin-dependent protein kinase activity from the cytosolic fraction of bovine heart was examined. Prior to the experiments, the kinase activity was purified more than 50-fold with a recovery of greater than 10% of the homogenate activity. Two endogenous protein substrates of molecular weight 57,000 and 73,000 were phosphorylated in these kinase preparations. The kinase preparation was also able to phosphorylate exogenous synapsin, phospholamban, glycogen synthase, MAP-2, myelin basic proteins and kappa-casein, but not tubulin, pyruvate kinase, the regulatory subunit of cAMP protein kinase II, myosin light chain or phosphorylase b. High levels of calmodulin were required for activation of the kinase activity toward the 57,000 and 73,000 molecular weight endogenous substrates (K0.5 = 93 +/- 5 nM), glycogen synthase (K0.5 = 127 +/- 10 nM), and kappa-casein (K0.5 = 321 +/- 107 nM). The kinase possessed a high affinity for glycogen synthase (half maximal activity at 0.9 +/- 0.4 microM) but a low affinity for kappa-casein (21 +/- 2 microM). Sucrose density gradient centrifugation separated the calmodulin-dependent protein kinase activity into two fractions with apparent molecular weights of approximately 900,000 and 100,000. Both fractions phosphorylated the endogenous 57,000 molecular weight substrate and glycogen synthase similarly. These results indicate that cardiac calmodulin-dependent protein kinase previously observed to phosphorylate endogenous protein substrate possesses a wide range of substrate specificity.
