5,6-Dichloro-1-(beta-D-ribofuranosyl)benzimidazole (DiCl-RB) is a powerful inhibitor of casein kinase-2 (CK-2) [Zandomeni, R. et al. (1986) J. Biol. Chem. 261, 3414-3420]. Here a series of 17 analogues of DiCl-RB has been employed for studying the specificity and the mode of action of this family of CK-2 inhibitors. The two halogen substituents on the benzene ring are shown to play a prominent role in inhibition, the 5,6-dibromo derivative (DiBr-RB) being fivefold more effective than DiCl-RB (Ki = 2 microM, with GTP as substrate), whereas the difluoro derivative (DiF-RB) is nearly as ineffective as unsubstituted 1-(beta-D-ribofuranosyl)benzimidazole. On the other hand, although some modifications of the ribose group significantly decrease the inhibitory efficiency, the sugar moiety is not strictly required, since dichlorobenzimidazole itself (DiCl-Bz) is an inhibitor almost as good as DiCl-RB. Inhibition of CK-2 by DiCl-RB and by its analogues, DiCl-Bz included, is of the competitive type with respect to the nucleotide substrate, the Ki values being lower with GTP than with ATP. The Ki values of the most potent inhibitor, DiBr-RB, with ATP and GTP, are 6 microM and 2 microM, respectively, denoting an affinity for the enzyme higher than that of the physiological substrates, ATP and GTP. DiBr-RB has been assayed for its inhibitory capacity toward several protein kinase other than CK-2. Protein kinase-C, cAMP-dependent protein kinase, the Ser/Thr protein kinase expressed by Pseudorabies virus, and four different tyrosine protein kinases from spleen, proved insensitive to DiBr-RB concentrations capable of almost entirely suppressing the activity of rat liver and maize seedling CK-2. Casein kinase-1 however is nearly as sensitive as CK-2 to DiBr-RB. Inhibition of CK-1 is also of the competitive type with respect to ATP (Ki = 14 microM). Although the inhibitory spectrum of CK-1 by the various analogues is reminiscent of that observed with CK-2, a remarkable difference is revealed by 5'-phosphorylation of ribose which increases the Ki with CK-2 while decreasing that with CK-1.

Previous reports have shown that heparin is an inhibitor of casein kinase-2 (CK-2). It is unclear whether heparin is also an inhibitor of glycogen synthase (casein) kinase-1 (CK-1), a type 1 casein kinase. In this study it is shown that CK-1 is potently inhibited by heparin when phosvitin or calcineurin are used as substrates. With casein as a substrate, however, the kinase is insensitive to inhibition by heparin. Using phosvitin as a substrate half-maximal inhibition of CK-1 was observed with 0.14 microgram/ml heparin. Kinetic analyses indicate that at a constant concentration (0.10 mM) of ATP the Km of CK-1 for phosvitin is increased eightfold in the presence of 0.9 microgram/ml heparin; the Vmax is unchanged with or without heparin. At a constant concentration of phosvitin (4 mg/ml) heparin (0.9 microgram/ml) decreased the Vmax for ATP by 57%; the Km is unchanged with or without heparin. The inhibition of CK-1 by heparin can be reversed by KCl (greater than 100 mM). These results indicate that heparin is a potent inhibitor not only of CK-2 but also of CK-1. Hence heparin inhibition can no longer be arbitrarily used as a criterion to discriminate between these kinases.

Previous studies have established that casein kinase-2 (CK-2) is stimulated by polyamines. In this study it is shown that glycogen synthase (casein) kinase-1 (CK-1) can be activated similarly. Using casein as the substrate, bovine kidney CK-1 was stimulated 7-, 2-, and 0.5-fold by spermine, spermidine, and putrescine, respectively. Half-maximal activation of CK-1 by these polyamines was observed at 0.25, 0.70, and 0.50 mM, respectively. CK-1 was optimally activated by spermine at low ionic strength and low Mg2+ concentrations (1-3 mM). Using phosvitin as the substrate, CK-1 was stimulated at low concentrations (0-0.8 mM) and inhibited at higher concentrations of spermine. By contrast CK-2 was inhibited at all concentrations of spermine when phosvitin was used as substrate. Using calcineurin (not a substrate for CK-2) as a substrate, CK-1 from bovine kidney or from three rat tissues (liver, kidney, and testis) was stimulated greater than 2-fold by spermine. It is further shown that heparin inhibits CK-1 and this inhibition can be reversed by spermine. The Vmax of CK-1 for both casein and ATP is increased by spermine while the Km remains unchanged by the polyamine. These studies indicate that CK-1, like CK-2, is a heparin-inhibited and polyamine-activated protein kinase. The results also suggest that CK-1 may be activated by spermine in vivo.

The gene for human granulocyte/macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) is expressed in a tissue-specific as well as an activation-dependent manner. The interaction of nuclear proteins with the promoter region of the GM-CSF gene that is likely to be responsible for this pattern of GM-CSF expression was investigated. We show that nuclear proteins interact with DNA fragments from the GM-CSF promoter in a cell-specific manner. A region spanning two cytokine-specific sequences, cytokine 1 (CK-1, 5' GAGATTCCAC 3') and cytokine 2 (CK-2, 5' TCAGGTA 3') bound two nuclear proteins [nuclear factor (NF)-GMa and NF-GMb] from GM-CSF-expressing cells in gel retardation assays. NF-GMb was inducible with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate and accompanied induction of GM-CSF message. NF-GMb was absent in cell lines not producing GM-CSF, some of which had other distinct binding proteins. NF-GMa and NF-GMb eluted from a heparin-Sepharose column at 0.3 and 0.6 M KCl, respectively. We hypothesize that the sequences CK-1 and CK-2 bind specific proteins and regulate GM-CSF transcription.

We have previously reported that rabbit skeletal muscle phosphorylase kinase is phosphorylated by glycogen synthase (casein) kinase-1 (CK-1) primarily on the beta subunit (beta = 1 mol of PO4; alpha = 0.2 mol of PO4) when the reaction was carried out in beta-glycerophosphate. The resultant enzyme activation was 16-fold (Singh, T. J., Akatsuka, A., and Huang, K.-P. (1982) J. Biol. Chem. 257, 13379-13384). In the present study we found that in Tris-Cl buffer CK-1 catalyzes the incorporation of greater than 2 mol of PO4/monomer into each of the alpha and beta subunits. Phosphorylase kinase activation resulting from the higher level of phosphorylation remained 16-fold. 32P-Labeled tryptic peptides from the alpha and beta subunits were analyzed by isoelectric focusing. Cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (A-kinase) phosphorylates a single major site in each of the alpha and beta subunits at 1.5 mM Mg2+. In addition to these two sites, A-kinase phosphorylates at least three other sites in the alpha subunit at 10 mM Mg2+. CK-1 also catalyzes the phosphorylation of multiple sites in both the alpha and beta subunits. Of the two major sites phosphorylated by CK-1 in the beta subunit, one of these sites is also recognized by A-kinase. At least three sites are phosphorylated by CK-1 in the alpha subunit. One of these sites is recognized by CK-1 only after a prior phosphorylation of phosphorylase kinase by A-kinase at a single site in each of the alpha and beta subunits at 1.5 mM Mg2+. The roles of the different phosphorylation sites in phosphorylase kinase activation are discussed.

MAP-2 and tubulin are both shown to be substrates for glycogen synthase (casein) kinase-1 (CK-1). Greater than 40 mol 32P is incorporated into MAP-2 by CK-1 compared to only 14 mol 32P observed when cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (A-kinase) is the catalyst. Peptide mapping shows that CK-1 and A-kinase recognize a few common sites; the majority of the sites phosphorylated on MAP-2 by CK-1 are quite distinct. Up to 4 mol 32P can be incorporated into the tubulin dimer by CK-1 compared to only 0.9 mol 32P by A-kinase. The preferred substrate for both kinases is beta-tubulin.

The thermal stability at 37 degrees C of several clinically relevant enzymes and isoenzymes was assessed by measuring changes in enzyme activity as a function of time under incubation and reaction conditions. Selwyn plots were used in the reaction-condition assessments. Except for CK-1 (BB), all the enzymes investigated are stable enough at 37 degrees C to permit assay. These enzymes were LDH-1, LDH-5, s-AspAT, m-AspAT, apo-s-AspAT, apo-m-AspAT, ALP-liver, ALP-bone, ALP-intestine, ALT, apo-ALT, CK-2, and CK-3. CK-1 is stable at 37 degrees C under assay conditions but not under incubation conditions. We specifically avoided using Arrhenius plots to evaluate thermal stability and point out pitfalls inherent in their indiscriminate use.

We report the effect of serum pH and of the presence or absence of mercaptoethanol, N-acetyl-L-cysteine, monothioglycerol, ethylenediaminetetraacetate, and ethylene glycol-bis(beta-aminoethyl ether)-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetate on the activation of the human creatine kinase isoenzymes. At the serum pH giving maximal enzyme stability and minimal assay lag phase (Nealon et al., Clin. Chem. 26: 1165-1169, 1980) thiol activation of CK-1 and CK-3 is nearly maximal with monothioglycerol in an optimized creatine kinase assay (Szasz et al., Clin. Chem. 22: 650-656, 1976). However, CK-2 is maximally activated at pH 8.5, a pH at which this isoenzyme is least stable on storage and its assay lag phase is prolonged. These findings suggest irreconcilable problems in the storage, activation, and assay of CK-2.

Serum creatine kinase (CK) and lactic dehydrogenase (LD) isoenzyme activities were measured in blood serum of pigs having myocardial damage and skeletal muscular lesions. Myocardial and muscular damage was induced by restraint stress provoked by intravenous infusion of a pharmacological restraint (succinylcholine-chloride) during 12 minutes. Pigs of Swedish Landrace and Swedish Landrace X Yorkshire breed, stress-susceptible (halothane-sensitive) and nonreacting pigs were studied. Severe myocardial damage and slight to moderate skeletal muscle necrosis were found 24 hours after restraint stress in the stress-susceptible pigs whereas in nonreacting pigs generally only myocardial lesions of moderate extent were registered. No significant increase was detected in the serum CK-BB (CK-1) or CK-MB (CK-2) activity whereas a pronounced elevation of the CK-MM (CK-3) activity was found, particularly in the stress-sensitive animals. In the myocardial tissue of pigs only a low CK-MD activity was found (about 4-5% CK-MD in addition to CK-MM) and this may explain the low CK-MB activity in serum of pigs subjected to severe myocardial damage. This is further supported by the pronounced increase in the anodal serum fractions LD 1-2 in animals free from skeletal muscular lesions. In the halothane-sensitive pigs skeletal muscle necrosis besides the myocardial lesions contributed to the high levels of CK-MM activity in serum.

Creatine kinase (CK) isoenzymes were determined on 15 patients undergoing open heart surgery with bypass. The study was performed to examine the relationship between the hypothermia under which the surgery is conducted and the appearance of CK isoenzymes in the serum both during and after surgery. All patients showed dramatic rises in total CK activity commencing during surgery. Myocardial CK (CK-MB or CK-2) was seen in fourteen patients and brain CK (CK-BB or CK-1) was seen in ten patients. Peak activities of CK-BB did not coincide with peak activities of CK-MB. The serum elevations of CK-BB in these patients appear to arise from a mechanism different from that responsible for the elevations of CK-MB, and it is assumed that the former is due to intermittent disruptions in the perfusion and/or oxygenation of tissues rich in CK-BB. CK-MB elevations appear to be due directly to the surgical intervention. Hypothermia alone does not in itself appear to be solely responsible for elevations of CK-BB although it can not be completely excluded from playing some role in its production.
