Purified casein kinase II (CKII) aggregates and loses activity under physiological salt conditions and within the range of physiological temperatures. In accord with our previous report [Miyata, Y., & Yahara, I. (1992) J. Biol. Chem. 267, 7042-7047], we report here that HSP90 protects CKII from the aggregation and inactivation by forming soluble CKII-HSP90 complexes. Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) measurements revealed that CKII binds to immobilized HSP90 within minutes. The KD of the binding is approximately 10(-7) M. ATP does not influence the interaction. The membrane-overlay method revealed that HSP90 binds to the catalytic CKII alpha subunit. Heparin, which binds to CKII alpha, inhibited the binding of CKII to HSP90-Sepharose. In addition, HSP90 competed with DNA for binding to CKII. Finally, SPR experiments showed that a peptide corresponding to the heparin and DNA binding site of CKII alpha binds to immobilized HSP90. These results indicate that HSP90, DNA, and heparin compete with each other for binding to a common site of CKII alpha. If the binding of CKII to DNA is biologically significant, it could be possibly regulated also by HSP90.

A protein kinase that causes phosphorylation of serine and threonine residues of casein has been partially purified from goat cauda-epididymal sperm plasma membrane and characterized. The kinase, solubilized from the membrane with 1.0% Triton X-100, was purified to 480-fold by using DEAE-cellulose and casein-Sepharose affinity chromatographic techniques. The kinase is a strongly basic protein with pI of 9.5. The enzyme has a molecular mass of 310 kilodaltons as estimated by Sephacryl S-300 gel exclusion. The kinase showed affinity for protein substrates in the order membrane proteins > casein > phosvitin > histone > protamine. The apparent Km values of the kinase for casein and membrane proteins were 1 and 0.15 mg/mL, respectively. The synthetic peptides Kemptide and poly(Glu80Tyr20) did not serve as substrates of the enzyme. ATP, rather than GTP or PP(i), is the donor of phosphate for the phosphorylation reaction. Cyclic AMP and GMP, NaCl (0.25 M), KCl (0.25 M), Ca2+, calmodulin, phosphatidylserine, and muscle protein kinase inhibitor had no appreciable effect on the kinase activity. Heparin (0.5 microgram/mL) showed high affinity for inhibiting only 40% of the kinase activity, whereas polyamines at a relatively high concentration (5 mM) inhibited 40-50% of the enzymic activity. The kinase appears to be distinct from other protein kinases including casein kinases. The activity of the kinase derived from the purified sperm plasma membrane was markedly (approximately 90%) lost when the intact spermatozoa were pretreated with diazonium salt of sulfanilic acid, a membrane nonpenetrating surface probe.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

The effects of some protein kinase effectors on phosphohydrolase and transport activities of yeast vacuoles have been studied. The platelet-activating factor (PAF), a plant vacuolar protein kinase C stimulator, had a protonophoric and membrane-damaging effects on yeast vacuoles and inhibited the ATP-dependent delta mu H+ formation and ATP-dependent secondary transport but stimulated the ATPase and pyrophosphatase hydrolase activities by abrogating proton control. PAF increasing the tonoplast permeability for the corresponding substrates also stimulated pyrophosphatase, polyphosphatase and alkaline phosphatase activities. Lysolipid sphingosine, a plant vacuolar protein kinase C inhibitor, poorly stimulated the ATPase activity and the ATP-dependent formation of Em in isolated yeast vacuoles, while the pyrophosphatase activity increased by 200%. Other hydrolase activities tested were insensitive to the effect of the lysolipid. Sphingosine inhibited the ATP-dependent citrate transport only insignificantly. Heparin, an effective casein kinase inhibitor, suppressed the ATPase and polyphosphatase activities in isolated yeast vacuoles. The polyphosphatase activity was inhibited both in the vacuolar sap and the tonoplast solubilized by a Zwittergent TM-314, in contrast with the ATPase activity which was inhibited by heparin only in isolated vacuoles. Heparin is suggested to inhibit polyphosphatase by directly influencing the enzyme.

The present study was designed to examine whether heparin inhibits basal or stimulated endothelin-1 production by arginine vasopressin (AVP) and platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) in cultured rat mesangial cells. In addition, the reversibility of the heparin effect on mesangial cell endothelin-1 production was examined. AVP and PDGF stimulated endothelin-1 secretion in a concentration-dependent manner in these cells. Heparin (10 to 100 U/ml) exhibited concentration-related inhibition of AVP- and PDGF-stimulated endothelin-1 secretion. Heparin also had weak but significant inhibitory effects on basal endothelin-1 secretion in these cells. The protein kinase (PKC)-activating phorbor ester, phorbor myristate acetate (PMA), stimulated endothelin-1 secretion and heparin inhibited PMA-stimulated endothelin-1 secretion. In addition, the inhibitory effect of heparin was completely abolished in PKC-depleted mesangial cells. Mesangial cells which were exposed to a high concentration (100 U/ml) of heparin for 24 hours were capable of producing endothelin-1 after a short lag period of removal of heparin from the culture medium. These mesangial cells also showed recovery of responses to AVP and PDGF by secreting a significantly greater amount of endothelin-1 than the non-stimulated level. These results indicate that heparin potently inhibits mesangial cell endothelin-1 production, especially when stimulated by AVP or PDGF. This inhibitory effect of heparin is probably PKC dependent, and reversible.

Heparin (20-40 micrograms/ml) inhibits by 50% both the ATP hydrolase and the delta pH formation in isolated yeast vacuoles. The GTPase activity is not inhibited under these conditions. ATP prevents this inhibition, being added 10 min before heparin. Heparin suppresses the phosphorylation of vacuolar proteins in vitro. It is supposed that the protein kinase, similar to casein kinase I, participates in the regulation of activity of the vacuolar ATPase.

Amyloid beta-protein (A beta) is the major protein of cerebrovascular and plaque amyloid in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Extensive evidence has demonstrated abnormal protein phosphorylation in this disease. We investigated the effect of synthetic A beta with the amino-acid sequence corresponding to cerebrovascular A beta and plaque A beta on the activities of casein kinase I (CK I) and casein kinase II (CK II). These enzymes were purified from bovine brain and casein was used as a substrate. A beta was found to stimulate markedly CK I- and CK II-mediated phosphorylation of casein in a concentration-dependent manner. The effect of plaque A beta was considerably higher than that of cerebrovascular A beta. Heparin, which is known to be a specific inhibitor of CK II, completely inhibited A beta-stimulated CK II activity. A beta itself was not a substrate for casein kinases. These findings were confirmed using other substrates for CK I and CK II. The experiments with synthetic CK II-substrate peptide (Leu-Glu-Leu-Ser-Asp-Asp-Asp-Asp-Glu) and the phosphorylation of erythrocyte membrane proteins by intrinsic membrane-bound CK I in erythrocytes showed marked stimulation in activities of casein kinases in the presence of A beta 1-40 or blocked A beta. We propose that A beta, by stimulating casein kinases, may contribute to abnormal protein phosphorylation in AD, in particular to increased phosphorylation of microtubule-associated proteins, leading to the neurofibrillary tangles formation and neurodegeneration in this disease. Interaction of A beta with protein kinases, thus, may characterize the beginning of the disease.

We have previously shown that second-messenger-dependent kinases (cAMP-dependent kinase, protein kinase C) in the olfactory system are essential in terminating second-messenger signaling in response to odorants. We now document that subtype 2 of the beta-adrenergic receptor kinase (beta ARK) is also involved in this process. By using subtype-specific antibodies to beta ARK-1 and beta ARK-2, we show that beta ARK-2 is preferentially expressed in the olfactory epithelium in contrast to findings in most other tissues. Heparin, an inhibitor of beta ARK, as well as anti-beta ARK-2 antibodies, (i) completely prevents the rapid decline of second-messenger signals (desensitization) that follows odorant stimulation and (ii) strongly inhibits odorant-induced phosphorylation of olfactory ciliary proteins. In contrast, beta ARK-1 antibodies are without effect. Inhibitors of protein kinase A and protein kinase C also block odorant-induced desensitization and phosphorylation. These data suggest that a sequential interplay of second-messenger-dependent and receptor-specific kinases is functionally involved in olfactory desensitization.

Neurofilament (NF)-enriched preparations from bovine spinal cord contain regulator-independent kinase activities that phosphorylate NF subunits as well as alpha-casein. CKI-7 (N-2-amino ethyl, 5-chloroisoquinoline, 8-sulfonamide), a specific inhibitor of casein kinase I (CKI), inhibits the phosphorylation of NF subunits in the neurofilament preparation. This inhibition occurs at a concentration range identical to concentrations where CKI-7 inhibits rabbit reticulocyte CKI phosphorylation of alpha-casein. Heparin, a specific inhibitor of casein kinase II (CKII), produced only 20% inhibition of 32P incorporation into NF subunits, and only at concentrations 5 to 10-fold higher than those required to inhibit CKII from reticulocytes. CKI from rabbit reticulocytes phosphorylated all three NF subunits (NF-H, NF-M and NF-L). Comparison of the tryptic phosphopeptide maps of NF-M, phosphorylated by the NF-associated kinase and CKI, indicates that the casein kinase I phosphorylates many of the peptides phosphorylated by the NF-associated kinase and this phosphorylation occurs at the carboxy terminal tail domain of the NF-M subunit. These studies suggest that the major independent kinase activity associated with NFs is CKI.

Protein phosphatase 2A2 is inactivated by phosphorylation following incubation with purified preparations of an autophosphorylation-activated protein kinase (Hong Guo and Zahi Damuni (1992) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 90, 2500-2504). This protein kinase was purified about 250,000-fold from extracts of bovine kidney to apparent homogeneity. The purified preparations exhibited a single polypeptide of apparent M(r) approximately 36,000. Up to 1 mol of phosphoryl groups was incorporated per mol of the purified kinase following incubation with ATP. This autophosphorylation reaction (t1/2 approximately 0.5-1 min) was accompanied by a approximately 10-fold activation of the kinase. Autophosphorylation and activation were reversed by protein phosphatase 2A2 or the catalytic subunit of protein phosphatase 1. Phosphoamino acid analysis indicated that the kinase underwent autophosphorylation on threonines. The rate of autophosphorylation was independent of the concentration of the enzyme and a slope of 0.97 (gamma = 0.998) was obtained by van't Hoff's plot indicating that autoposphorylation was intramolecular. Relative to myelin basic protein, the enzyme exhibited about 8, 62, 130, 33, 5, and < 0.1% activity with histones H1, H2A, H2B, H3, and H4 and with glycogen synthase alpha, respectively. Heparin inhibited the activity of the enzyme half-maximally at about 20 micrograms/ml. The results indicate that this autophosphorylation-activated kinase is a new protein kinase.

We report the molecular cloning and characterization of a 49-kDa form of casein kinase I from rat testis. A cDNA clone encoding the enzyme, designated casein kinase I delta, contained an open reading frame of 1284 nucleotides that predicts a polypeptide of 428 amino acids with a M(r) of 49,121. The predicted amino acid sequence shares 76% identity with casein kinase I alpha, a 37-kDa form recently cloned from bovine brain (Rowles, J., Slaughter, C., Moomaw, C., Hsu, J., and Cobb, M. (1991) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 88, 9548-9552), and 65% identity with HRR25, a 57-kDa form of casein kinase I from yeast shown to be involved in DNA repair (Hoekstra, M. F., Liskay, R. M., Ou, A. C., DeMaggio, A. J., Burbee, D. G., and Heffron, F. (1991) Science 253, 1031-1034). Northern analysis of rat or rabbit RNA revealed three hybridizing species of 3.5-4.1, 2.2, and 1.9 kilobase pairs (kb). The largest message was detected in all tissues examined, whereas the 1.9- and 2.2-kb species were found predominantly in testis. A probe corresponding to the 3'-untranslated region of the casein kinase I delta cDNA hybridized only to the 1.9-kb transcript. Expression of the casein kinase I delta cDNA in Escherichia coli resulted in active enzyme that phosphorylated casein, phosvitin, and the peptide substrate DDDDVASLPGLRRR. Enzyme activity was associated with a predominant polypeptide of 55-kDa, although COOH-terminal degradation products of 50 and 42 kDa were also present in partially purified enzyme. Recombinant casein kinase I delta was inhibited by the specific casein kinase I inhibitor, CKI-7, half-maximally at 12 microM. Heparin inhibited recombinant casein kinase I delta when phosvitin was the substrate, with half-maximal inhibition at 11.5 micrograms/ml. However, if the peptide substrate was used, heparin activated recombinant casein kinase I delta 4-5-fold, with half-maximal activation at 9.5 micrograms/ml. A truncated form of casein kinase I delta, lacking the COOH-terminal 111 amino acids, was no longer activated by heparin. Casein kinase I delta therefore represents a separate member of the casein kinase I family distinguished by its larger size and unique kinetic behavior with respect to heparin.
