Incubation of 80S ribosomes with a substoichiometric amount of [alpha-32P]GTP and with eEF-2 resulted in the specific labeling of one ribosomal protein which migrated very close to the position of the acidic phosphoprotein P2 from the 60S subunit in two-dimensional isofocusing-SDS gel electrophoresis. Localization of protein P2 in this electrophoretic system was ascertained by correlation with its position in the standard two-dimensional acidic-SDS gel electrophoresis after its specific phosphorylation by casein kinase II. Labeling of the ribosomal protein was dependent on the presence of eEF-2, and could be attributed to [alpha-32P]GDP binding from the results of chase experiments and HPLC identification, this binding being very likely responsible for the slight shift in the electrophoretical position of the protein. Incubation of ribosomes with tRNA(Phe) in the absence of mRNA induced the release of the bound GDP.

Protein kinases induced by Bombyx mori nuclear polyhedrosis virus in pupae of the silkworm B. mori were examined by activity gel analysis using phosvitin as a protein substrate. The method involved PAGE of the soluble fraction from pupae under native conditions and in the presence of SDS, followed by in situ renaturation of proteins and recovery of protein kinase activity in the intact gel. A novel protein kinase able to phosphorylate phosvitin was detected in the infected pupae from 2 days post-infection. This enzyme was not present in uninfected silkworms at any stage of the pupal period. The novel kinase activity was found by SDS-PAGE to be associated with a single polypeptide with an apparent M(r) of 50K. However, on electrophoresis under native conditions its activity was associated with a set of polypeptides with similar but not identical electrophoretic mobilities. Microheterogeneity of the catalytically active polypeptides suggests that the virus-induced protein kinase undergoes post-translational modification during the course of infection.

Proline-directed protein kinase (PDPK) is characterized as a cytoplasmic oncogenic serine/threonine kinase that is activated by growth factor-mediated mechanisms and is proposed to function in mammalian somatic cells as an S phase promoting factor. The present study was undertaken to assess the hypothesis that p34cdc2/p58cyclinA PDPK is a physiologically relevant form of the p34cdc2 protein kinase that phosphorylates and inactivates the product of the retinoblastoma/osteosarcoma tumor susceptibility gene (Rb protein). In the course of these studies it was determined (fortuitously) that the p34cdc2/p58cyclinA PDPK purified from the cytosol of FM3A mouse mammary carcinoma cells was 'contaminated' by several high molecular weight substrate proteins that essentially co-purified with the protein kinase, one of which was identified as the Rb protein itself (p105Rb). High-resolution fast protein liquid chromatography (FPLC) revealed that the Rb protein co-purified with a particular subset of the PDPK heterodimer, i.e. with a single species of the 58 kDa cyclinA doublet. The subset of PDPK associated with the Rb protein exhibited somewhat lower specific enzyme activity, as judged by in vitro kinase assays and comparative Western blotting. Immunoprecipitation studies confirmed that p105Rb is physically associated with the p34cdc2/p58cyclin A PDPK. Further studies confirmed that the underphosphorylated Rb protein (p105Rb) present in G1 lysates of synchronized human MG63 osteosarcoma cells could be readily phosphorylated by purified PDPK in vitro, resulting in the characteristic shift in the apparent molecular mass (SDS-PAGE) of the Rb protein that is reported to accompany the hyperphosphorylation and functional inactivation of this protein. Moreover, the induction of the cyclin A subunit of PDPK in these synchronized MG63 cells was found to be closely correlated with the cell cycle-dependent phosphorylation of the Rb protein. From these studies it is concluded that the growth factor-sensitive PDPK is a physiological Rb kinase, which may function to inactivate the Rb protein in vivo.

Vpu as a human-immunodeficiency-virus-type-1-encoded 81-amino-acid integral-membrane protein was expressed in Escherichia coli using the inducible ptrc promoter of an ATG fusion vector. Recombinant Vpu is associated with membranes of E. coli and could be partially solubilized by detergents. Recombinant Vpu was phosphorylated in vitro with purified porcine casein kinase II (CKII) as well as with a CKII-related protein kinase found in cytoplasmic extracts of human and hamster cells. Recombinant Vpu associated with E. coli membranes has turned out to be the best substrate for in vitro phosphorylation with CKII. This reaction can be inhibited by heparin and the ATP analogue 5,6-dichloro-1-(beta-D-ribofuranosyl)benzimidazole (DRB), both known to be potent inhibitors of CKII. Radiolabelled gamma ATP and gamma GTP were used as phosphate donors in vitro phosphorylation of recombinant Vpu. In vivo phosphorylation of Vpu in HIV-1-infected H9 cells was also inhibited by DRB. We concluded therefrom that the Vpu protein is phosphorylated by the ubiquitous CKII in HIV-1-infected human host cells. Two seryl residues in the sequence of Vpu (position 52 and 56) correspond to the consensus S/TXXD/E for CKII. These potential phosphorylation sites are located within a well-conserved dodecapeptide of Vpu (residues 47-58), which is found in different HIV-1 strains as well as in a Vpu-like protein of SIVCPZ. Monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies directed against two different epitopes of Vpu were used for immunoprecipitation of Vpu from HIV-1-infected cells and for detection of Vpu in Western blot analyses. Vpu from HIV-1-infected cells as well as recombinant Vpu expressed in E. coli were determined by SDS/PAGE using 6 M urea to be 9 kDa, which corresponds to the calculated molecular mass of Vpu.

We have previously identified and characterized regulatory (R) subunits of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, particularly the RII subunits in rat tissues (Jahnsen, T., Lohmann, S. M., Walter, U., Hedin, L., and Richards, J. S. (1985) J. Biol. Chem. 260, 15980-15987; Jahnsen, T., Hedin, L., Lohmann, S. M., Walter, U., and Richards, J. S. (1986) J. Biol. Chem. 261, 6637-6639; Jahnsen, T., Hedin, L., Kidd, V. J., Beattie, W. G., Lohmann, S. M., Walter, U., Durica, J., Schulz, T. Z., Schiltz, E., Browner, M., Lawrence, C. B., Goldman, D., Ratoosh, S. L., and Richards, J. S. (1986) J. Biol. Chem. 261, 12352-12361). These studies showed that rat RII alpha and RII beta had apparent molecular masses of 54 and 52 kDa, respectively. The aim of the present study was to purify and characterize cAMP-dependent protein kinase R subunits in human testis and to examine which of the subunits (mRNAs and proteins) are present in this tissue. Our results show that human testis contains mRNAs for five out of the seven known subunits of cAMP-dependent protein kinase. We observed strong expression of mRNAs for RI alpha (1.5 and 3.2 kilobases (kb)), RII alpha (2.2, 2.4, and 7.0 kb), and RII beta (3.3 kb). We also demonstrated mRNAs for two of the three catalytic subunits, C alpha (2.7 kb) and C gamma (1.7 kb). Purification of R subunits by DEAE-cellulose and cAMP affinity chromatography revealed three distinct forms with apparent molecular masses of 49, 51, and 53 kDa, respectively. Characterization of these R subunits by their 8-azido-cAMP photoaffinity labeling and immunoreactivity, as well as by a phosphorylation-dependent mobility shift on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), indicated subunit sizes of RII beta (53 kDa) greater than RII alpha dephosphoform (51 kDa) greater than RI alpha (49 kDa). This conclusion was verified by the analysis of RII subunits produced by in vitro transcription/translation of full-length cDNAs for both human RII alpha and RII beta in wheat germ lysates. The in vitro translated products were the same size as the purified human testis subunits, and only the smallest RII subunit (RII alpha) revealed a distinct mobility shift on SDS-PAGE after phosphorylation/dephosphorylation. This study supports the conclusion that the mobilities of human RII subunits (RII alpha, RII beta) on SDS-PAGE are reversed in contrast with those of other species such as rat and bovine.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

A wheat basic protein (WBP) was purified to homogeneity from wheat germ by a protocol involving extraction, centrifugation, batchwise elution from carboxymethylcellulose (CM-52), acidification with trifluoroacetic acid, neutralization and HPLC on a SP5PW cation exchange column. WBP is a 10 kDa protein and is phosphorylated on serine residues by wheat germ Ca(2+)-dependent protein kinase (CDPK). [32P]phosphoWBP exactly comigrates with WBP on SDS-PAGE. WBP does not inhibit either wheat germ CDPK or calmodulin-dependent myosin light chain kinase. Apart from histone H1, WBP is the best endogenous substrate yet found for wheat embryo CDPK. A 12 kDa pine basic protein (PBP) was purified to homogeneity from seeds of stone pine (Pinus pinea L.) by a simple procedure involving batchwise elution from carboxymethylcellulose and cation exchange HPLC. PBP is also a good substrate for CDPK and is phosphorylated on Ser residues. N-terminal sequencing of WBP and PBP revealed that these proteins are homologous to a family of small basic plant proteins having a phospholipid transfer function.

Purified preparations of the Helminthosporium victoriae 190S (Hv190S) virus contain two sedimenting components that differ in capsid structure. The slower sedimenting component (190S-1) contained p88 and p83 as the major capsid proteins; the faster component (190S-2) contained p88 and p78. Previous peptide-mapping studies have shown the three capsid proteins to be closely related. Analysis by SDS-PAGE of in vivo-radiolabeled Hv190S virions indicated that 32P was predominantly incorporated in p88. Significantly less was detected in p83 and none in p78. Similar results were obtained in in vitro phosphorylation studies using [gamma-32P]ATP and purified 190S-1 and 190S-2. The in vitro results suggest that the Hv190S virions copurify with a protein kinase activity that catalyzes the transfer of gamma-phosphate from ATP to a target protein, presumably p78 in the 190S-2 virions and p83 in the 190S-1 component. Selective chemical cleavage at tryptophan residues of in vitro 32P-labeled capsid proteins revealed four labeled peptides among the cleavage products of both p83 and p88. Radioiodination studies with intact Hv190S virions indicated that p88 and p83, but not the nonphosphorylated p78, were accessible to iodination, suggesting that capsid protein phosphorylation entailed conformational changes.

A protein kinase, specific for 60S ribosomal proteins, has been isolated from Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells, purified to almost homogeneity and characterized. The isolated enzyme is not related to other known protein kinases. Enzyme purification comprised three chromatography steps; DEAE-cellulose, phosphocellulose and heparin-Sepharose. SDS/PAGE analysis of the purified enzyme, indicated a molecular mass of around 71 kDa for the stained single protein band. The specific activity of the protein kinase was directed towards the 60S ribosomal proteins L44, L44', L45 and a 38 kDa protein. All the proteins are phosphorylated only at the serine residues. None of the 40S ribosomal proteins were phosphorylated in the presence of the kinase. For that reason we have named the enzyme the 60S kinase. An analysis of the phosphopeptide maps of acidic ribosomal proteins, phosphorylated at either the 60S kinase or casein kinase II, showed almost identical patterns. Using the immunoblotting technique, the presence of the kinase has been detected in extracts obtained from intensively growing cells. These findings suggest an important role played by the 60S kinase in the regulation of ribosomal activity during protein synthesis.

To assess the possible functional role of single-strand DNA-binding (SSB) proteins in eucaryotic cell, a comparative study was made of SSB-proteins isolated from chromatin and the nonchromatin fractions of Ehrlich ascites tumour (EAT) cells. No appreciable differences between the two groups could be found either in SDS-gel electrophoretic patterns or in the ssDNA-binding capacity and stimulation of DNA replication in permeable EAT cells. However, the chromatin SSB-proteins incorporated 1.4-times more labelled phosphate in vivo; phosphate assays in the isolated chromatin and nonchromatin SSB-proteins yielded ca. 3 and 2 moles Pi/mole protein, respectively. Both preparations could be further phosphorylated in vitro with Ca-phospholipid-dependent protein kinase and the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase, but the non-chromatin proteins were phosphorylated to a greater degree. In parallel with phosphorylation, the SSB-proteins displayed stronger binding to ssDNA cellulose. Phosphorylation may thus be a means of regulating the functions of SSB-proteins, in particular their interaction with chromatin.

Autophosphorylation of a DNA-activated protein kinase (DNA-PK) in Raji Burkitt's lymphoma cells generated a band that corresponded to a phosphoprotein of about 300 kDa on SDS/PAGE. This band corresponds to a 300-350-kDa DNA-PK found previously in HeLa cells. In addition to the 300-kDa phosphoprotein, the band of a highly phosphorylated 58-kDa protein was detected by SDS/PAGE of partially purified DNA-PK preparations after the phosphorylation reaction in the presence of double-stranded DNA. This phosphoprotein was specifically immunoprecipitated by phosphoprotein nor detectable activities of other kinases, phosphorylated recombinant c-Myc proteins in the presence of DNA. The c-Myc phosphorylation by DNA-PK was markedly stimulated by relaxed, double-stranded DNA, but neither by single-stranded DNA nor by RNA. Phosphopeptide mapping and phosphoamino acid analysis indicated that DNA-PK phosphorylates c-Myc in vitro at several serine residues.
