The human PIM-1 gene, a homologue of murine retroviral insertion site mpim-1, is overexpressed in a subset of hematolymphoid malignancies. Deduced amino acid sequence of PIM-1 complementary DNA predicts it to be a protein kinase. In vitro transcription coupled translation of the putative 313-amino acid open reading frame yields a Mr 34,000 protein; an immune complex kinase assay of the wild-type PIM-1 and not a site-directed mutant, in which the invariant Lys67 has been changed to Arg, demonstrates autophosphorylating activity on serine residues. Thus, PIM-1 is a protein serine kinase with a possible role in neoplastic transformation.

Insulin-stimulated protein kinase activities detected in Xenopus oocyte membrane were examined. The plasma membrane proteins solubilized in a buffer containing Triton X-100 were immunoprecipitated with anti-phosphotyrosine antibodies and adsorbed materials were eluted with a buffer containing p-nitrophenyl phosphate. The eluate contained protein serine kinase activity toward H1 histone which was increased 2-3 fold by insulin. Protein tyrosine kinase activity was also exhibited in Xenopus oocyte membrane and the close parallel to serine kinase activity was observed in response to insulin. These results suggest that insulin-stimulated serine kinase is activated through the phosphorylation by protein tyrosine kinase.

1. Triton extracts of syncytiotrophoblast membranes were incubated with [gamma-32P]ATP, MgCl2 and MnCl2. Addition of epidermal growth factor (EGF) resulted in increased phosphorylation not only of the EGF receptor and a Mr-35,000 protein as previously described, but also a protein of Mr 95,000 on both tyrosine and serine residues. In addition, a small increase in the phosphorylation of a protein of Mr 105,000 was observed. Spermine had a similar effect on the phosphorylation of the Mr-95,000 protein, without affecting the phosphorylation of the other proteins. In the absence of MnCl2, the effect of spermine on the phosphorylation of Mr-95,000 protein was still evident, whereas that of EGF was greatly diminished. 2. The Mr-95,000 protein bound poorly to wheat-germ-lectin-Sepharose and was not precipitated by antisera specific for insulin and EGF receptors. The protein continued to exhibit serine and tyrosine phosphorylation on addition of [gamma-32P]ATP, MgCl2 and MnCl2 to a glycoprotein-depleted fraction prepared by chromatography on wheat-germ-lectin-Sepharose. The extent of phosphorylation was no longer increased by spermine or EGF, but was inhibited by heparin. 3. It is suggested that the Mr-95,000 protein not only is a possible direct substrate for the EGF-receptor (but not the insulin receptor) tyrosine kinase but is a substrate for other endogenous kinases, including a protein tyrosine kinase which is probably not a glycoprotein, and a protein serine kinase with properties similar to those of casein kinase II.

The purification and properties of a protein serine kinase (PK-P) extracted with Triton X-100 from membranes of bakers' yeast are described. The enzyme is virtually inactive unless either a histone or a heat-stable polypeptide from yeast membranes and Mg2+ are added. Other divalent cations substitute for Mg2+ poorly or not at all; most of them, including Mn2+, inhibit when added in the presence of 5 mM Mg2+. The enzyme is unstable but can be stabilized by addition of 0.1% Triton X-100 and 20% glycerol. The final preparation shows, on silver-stained electrophoresis gels, two major bands (Mr 41,000 and 35,000). According to gel filtration the molecular weight of the active protein is about 75,000. Of the two subunits, only the smaller one appears to be autophosphorylated. In addition to casein, the enzyme phosphorylates several proteins including the H+-ATPase (Mr 100,000) in the yeast plasma membrane. In order to demonstrate the phosphorylation of the ATPase (up to 0.9 equivalents), exposure of the latter to an acid phosphatase was required. Other phosphorylated proteins include mRNA cap-binding protein from mammalian erythrocytes and yeast, a glucocorticoid receptor protein, and a preparation of the guanine nucleotide-binding proteins Gi and Go from brain. A partial purification of a natural activator from yeast plasma membranes is described.

A bovine liver protein serine kinase that catalyzes the multisite phosphorylation of ribosomal protein S6 has been purified to near homogeneity. The enzyme has an Mr of 67,000 on SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and an apparent molecular weight of 55,000 on glycerol gradient sedimentation. Its enzymic properties, substrate specificity, molecular size and chromatographic behaviour are similar to those of the principal growth factor--and phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate-stimulated S6 kinase of cultured cells.

Nuclei of Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells contain a protein kinase, the activity of which is drastically reduced in response to an activation of the mating signal pathway by pheromone. Inhibition of this pheromone-sensitive kinase is also observed under conditions of constitutive activation of the signal pathway in a temperature-sensitive cdc70 mutant. The enzyme, which by SDS-PAGE has a molecular mass of 34,500 Da, is a protein serine kinase that phosphorylates several endogenous substrates in nuclear extracts. The activity of this kinase is temperature-resistant in a temperature-sensitive cdc28 mutant, indicating that it is not identical to p34CDC28, the catalytic component of the cell cycle protein kinase complex.

A locus on human chromosome 16q22.1 contains at least five tightly clustered genes which are unrelated by sequence homology and apparently unrelated by function. The genes for a putative proteasome subunit (MECL 1), a chymotrypsin-like protease (CTRL), a protein serine kinase (PSKH1), the previously cloned lecithin:cholesterol acyl transferase (LCAT) and a protein of unknown function are found within 40 kb of genomic DNA. Exons from the former four genes are located within a 12 kb region including a CpG island associated with the putative proteasome gene. Three of the genes are widely expressed, whereas the genes for the protease and LCAT are highly tissue specific. The distance between the transcriptional units of the gene upstream of LCAT and LCAT is only 199 bp. Alternative polyadenylation of the protease transcripts creates a transcription unit which overlaps with the oppositely oriented kinase gene. The selective advantage of this unusual gene clustering may involve transcriptional interference(s) and coregulatory events not yet understood. Given the current estimate of about 100,000 genes in the human genome, our findings support the notion that genes are not evenly distributed.

In this work, the C3-type form of Sorghum phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PyrPC) was produced in PyrPC-deficient strains of Escherichia coli transformed by a plasmid bearing the corresponding full-length cDNA (CPR1). The full-sized protein was purified to homogeneity by immunoaffinity chromatography. Some functional and regulatory properties were described; notably, the immunopurified PyrPC could be phosphorylated in reconstituted assay by 1) both a mammalian PKA and the PyrPC protein serine kinase purified from Sorghum leaves and 2) a novel protein kinase affinity-purified from Sorghum roots. In all cases phosphorylation was accompanied by a marked reduction in its malate sensitivity.

Glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) is a protein serine kinase implicated in the cellular response to insulin. The enzyme is the mammalian homologue of the zeste-white3 (shaggy) homeotic gene of Drosophila melanogaster and has been implicated in the regulation of the c-Jun/AP-1 transcription factor. In mammals this protein serine kinase is encoded by two related genes termed GSK-3 alpha and beta. Here, we demonstrate that these two proteins and the fruit fly protein are phosphorylated on tyrosine in vivo. Moreover, GSK-3 beta activity and function are shown to be dependent on tyrosine phosphorylation. The modified tyrosine residue is conserved in all members of the GSK-3 family and is equivalent to that required for activity by mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases. However, unlike MAP kinases, GSK-3 is highly phosphorylated on tyrosine and thus active in resting cells.

Some TAF subunits of transcription factor TFIID play a pivotal role in transcriptional activation by mediating protein-protein interactions, whereas other TAFs direct promoter selectivity via protein-DNA recognition. Here, we report that purified recombinant TAFII250 is a protein serine kinase that selectively phosphotylates RAP74 but not other basal transcription factors or common phosphoacceptor proteins. The phosphorylation of RAP74 also occurs in the context of the complete TFIID complex. Deletion analysis revealed that TAFII250 contains two distinct kinase domains each capable of autophosphorylation. However, both the N- and C-terminal kinase domains of TAFII250 are required for efficient transphosphorylation of RAP74 on serine residues. These findings suggest that the targeted phosphorylation of RAP74 by TAFII250 may provide a mechanism for signaling between components within the initiation complex to regulate transcription.
