Casein kinase II (CKII) is one of several protein kinases that become activated before germinal-vesicle breakdown in maturing sea-star oocytes. Echinoderm CKII was purified over 11,000-fold with a recovery of approximately 10% by sequential fractionation of the oocyte cytosol on tyrosine-agarose, heparin-agarose, casein-agarose and MonoQ. The purified enzyme contained 45, 38 and 28 kDa polypeptides, which corresponded to its alpha, alpha' and beta subunits respectively. The beta-subunit was autophosphorylated on one major tryptic peptide on serine residues, whereas the alpha'-subunit incorporated phosphate into at least two tryptic peptides primarily on threonine residues. Western-blotting analysis of sea-star oocyte extracts with two different anti-peptide antibodies that recognized conserved regions of the alpha-subunit indicated that the protein levels of the alpha- and alpha'-subunits of CKII were unchanged during oocyte maturation. The purified CKII was partly inactivated (by 25%) by preincubation with protein-serine/threonine phosphatase 2A, but protein-tyrosine phosphatases had no effect. The beta-subunit of CKII was phosphorylated on a serine residue(s) up to 0.54 mol of P/mol of beta-subunit by purified protein kinase C, and this correlated with a 1.5-fold enhancement of its phosphotransferase activity with phosvitin as a substrate. CKII was not a substrate for the maturation-activated myelin basic protein kinase p44mpk from sea-star oocytes, nor for cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase. These studies point to possible regulation of CKII by protein phosphorylation.

Wild-type mouse p53, expressed in Escherichia coli, was phosphorylated by highly purified casein kinase I (CKI) from rabbit muscle. The major site of phosphorylation in the p53 was identified as serine 6, which is known to be phosphorylated in vivo. Serines 4 and 9 were also phosphorylated. To determine whether CKI is likely to be a physiological p53 kinase, SV3T3 cell lysates were fractionated on a Mono Q column and assayed for p53 kinase and casein kinase activities. Four p53 kinase activities were detected, one of which co-purified with CKI activity. This p53 kinase (designated PK270) further co-purified with CKI on sucrose gradients and had a native molecular weight, like CKI, in the range of 35,000-45,000. However, PK270 was separated from the bulk of CKI activity on a phosvitin-Sepharose affinity column, and was therefore likely to be a CKI-related kinase. In support of these conclusions, phosphorylation of p53, by both CKI and PK270, was inhibited by a peptide corresponding to a consensus CKI target sequence, but not by a non-specific peptide. Moreover, phosphopeptide analyses of p53 phosphorylated by CKI or by PK270 gave similar results, indicating that these two kinases phosphorylate the same sites in p53.

A second messenger-independent serine/threonine protein kinase from lactating goat mammary gland is purified and characterized. The purification steps include: homogenization, ultracentrifugation, ammonium sulphate precipitation, DEAE-Sepharose, phosphocellulose, hydrophobic and Mono Q columns. On the final step of purification the enzyme is revealed as a single band of mol wt 45,000 on silver-stained SDS-PAGE. Mg2+ and K+ are necessary for its optimum activity. Phosvitin and casein are substrates for the enzyme but kemptide, RRREEETEEE, protamine and histone mixture are all poorly phosphorylated. The kinase is inhibited by quercetin, heparin, random tyrosine- and glutamic acid-containing polymers, Ca2+, NaF, 2,3-bis-phosphoglycerate. 1 mM Mn2+ affects positively the basal level of the kinase activity but 5 mM Mn2+ completely suppress the effect of 10 mM Mg2+. Km of this enzyme for ATP is 1.57 microM and pH optimum is from 6 to 7. Isolation of this kinase is facilitated by its unusually high affinity for phosphocellulose.

Although most studies of protein phosphorylation have focused on intracellular protein kinases, evidence for protein kinase activity on the surface of several types of cells has been described. Evidence was recently provided for the existence of ecto-protein kinase activity on the surface of human neutrophils. Evidence for three distinct ecto-protein kinase activities was detected, one that phosphorylates endogenous surface proteins, one that phosphorylates exogenous substrates in a cAMP-independent manner and is released in the presence of substrate, and a low level of activity of one that phosphorylates exogenous Kemptide in a cAMP-dependent manner. To begin to elucidate its role in neutrophil function, we have characterized several properties of the releasable ecto-protein kinase activity on human neutrophils. This enzyme activity was inhibited by impermeant stilbene disulfonic acids, which are known to alter neutrophil function, as well as by impermeant sulfhydryl reactive agents. Enzyme activity was detectable at physiologic concentrations of Mg2+, but was higher in the presence of Mn2+. Protein kinase activity was strongly inhibited by heparin, whereas trifluoperazine, cAMP, and cGMP had little effect on kinase activity. Protein kinase activity was selectively removed from the cell surface by incubation with the ecto-kinase substrates casein and phosvitin, but the enzyme was not released by phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C. Repeated exposure of neutrophils to substrate depleted ecto-protein kinase activity from the cell surface, but activity was rapidly restored by incubation in buffer lacking substrate. The released protein kinase had a Km for ATP of approximately 0.5 microM and a pH maximum between 7.0 and 7.5. At least four ecto-protein kinase substrates were detected in serum; vitronectin was identified as one of these substrates by immunoprecipitation studies. Although the exact role of ecto-protein kinase activity in neutrophil function remains undefined, the identification of vitronectin as a serum substrate suggests that it interacts with a physiologically important substrate.

A protein kinase, type NII, has been purified from wheat germ chromatin. The enzyme, which uses both ATP and GTP as phosphoryl donors, catalyzes the phosphorylation of casein, phosvitin and E. coli RNA polymerase, but not of histone proteins. Polypeptide bands at 46 kDa, 37 kDa and 25 kDa were estimated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Autophosphorylation of the 25 kDa subunit was observed following incubation of the purified kinase with (gamma-32P)ATP and (gamma-32P)GTP.

Intact cauda-epididymal mature and caput-epididymal immature goat spermatozoa were assessed for their capacity to phosphorylate the outer surface proteins upon incubation in a modified Ringer's solution containing [delta-32P]ATP. The immature spermatozoa possessed markedly greater (approximately 7-fold) efficacy to phosphorylate the ecto-proteins than the mature cells. Autoradiographic analysis of the 32P-labelled proteins resolved by SDS-PAGE, showed that multiple sperm ecto-proteins are phosphorylated by an endogenous ecto-cyclic AMP-independent protein kinase (CIK) and the phosphorylation profile of these proteins underwent marked alteration during the epididymal sperm maturation. The intact caput-sperm as well showed nearly 4-fold higher specific activity of ecto-CIK than the cauda-sperm when the kinase activity was estimated using phosvitin as the exogenous protein substrate. The data suggest that the ecto-CIK and its specific protein substrates located on the sperm outer-surface, may have important roles in regulating the epididymal maturation of the male gametes.

A meiosis-activated myelin basic protein (MBP) kinase was purified approximately 8700-fold from soluble post-germinal vesicle breakdown extracts from maturing oocytes of the sea star Pisaster ochraceus. Purification to apparent homogeneity was achieved by sequential chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, hydroxylapatite, phosphocellulose, phenyl-Sepharose, heparin-Sepharose, polylysine-Sepharose, and Mono-Q. The final product exhibited an apparent molecular mass of approximately 42 kDa by both native gradient and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and this precisely correlated with the chromatographic behavior of the recovered MBP kinase activity on a Superose 6/12 column. The kinase utilized the MBP as the major substrate with little or no phosphorylation of histones (H1, H2A, or H2B), casein, phosvitin, protamine, or 40 S ribosomal proteins. The purified enzyme was relatively insensitive to high concentrations of beta-glycerol phosphate, calmodulin, EGTA, NaCl, sodium fluoride, dithiothreitol, spermine, and heparin but was quite sensitive to inhibition by metal ions such as Mn2+, Zn2+, and Ca2+. The true Km values for ATP and myelin basic protein were determined to be 58 and 25 microM, respectively, using double-reciprocal plots. The purified enzyme was unable to utilize GTP in place of ATP. The enzyme was shown to rapidly undergo autophosphorylation. The autophosphorylation was sensitive to alkali treatment implying that phosphate was incorporated on serine/threonine residues. The properties of this MBP kinase are reminiscent of a protein kinase that is also activated in a cyclic fashion at M-phase during the early cell divisions of sea star and sea urchin embryos (Pelech, S. L., Tombe, R., Meijer, L., and Krebs, E. G. (1988) Dev. Biol. 130, 26-36).

To determine relationships between the hormonal activation of casein kinase II and its phosphorylation state, epidermal growth factor (EGF)-treated and EGF-naive human A-431 carcinoma cells were cultured in the presence of [32P]orthophosphate. Immunoprecipitation experiments indicated that casein kinase II in the cytosol of EGF-treated cells contained approximately 3-fold more incorporated [32P]phosphate than did its counterpart in untreated cells. Levels of kinase phosphorylation paralleled levels of kinase activity over a wide range of EGF concentrations as well as over a time course of hormone action. Approximately 97% of the incorporated [32P]phosphate was found in the beta subunit of casein kinase II. Both activated and hormone-naive kinase contained radioactive phosphoserine and phosphothreonine but no phosphotyrosine. On the basis of proteolytic mapping experiments, EGF treatment of A-431 cells led to an increase in the average [32P]phosphate content (i.e., hyperphosphorylation) of casein kinase II beta subunit peptides which were modified prior to hormone treatment. Finally, the effect of alkaline phosphatase on the reaction kinetics of activated casein kinase II indicated that hormonal stimulation of the kinase resulted from the increase in its phosphorylation state.

A novel calcium-dependent protein kinase (CDPK) previously reported to be activated by the direct binding of Ca2+, and requiring neither calmodulin nor phospholipids for activity [Harmon, A.C., Putnam-Evans, C.L., & Cormier, M.J. (1987) Plant Physiol. 83, 830-837], was purified to greater than 95% homogeneity from suspension-cultured soybean cells (Glycine max, L. Wayne). Purification was achieved by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, phenyl-Sepharose, Sephadex G-100, and Blue Sepharose. The purified enzyme (native molecular mass = 52,200 Da) resolved into two immunologically related protein bands of 52 and 55 kDa on 10% SDS gels. Enzyme activity was stimulated 40-100-fold by micromolar amounts of free calcium (K0.5 = 1.5 microM free calcium) and was dependent upon millimolar Mg2+. CDPK phosphorylated lysine-rich histone III-S and chicken gizzard myosin light chains but did not phosphorylate arginine-rich histone, phosvitin, casein, protamine, or Kemptide. Phosphorylation of histone III-S, but not autophosphorylation, was inhibited by KCl. CDPK displayed a broad pH optimum (pH 7-9), and kinetic studies revealed a Km for Mg2(+)-ATP of 8 microM and a Vmax of 1.7 mumol min-1 mg-1 with histone III-S (Km = 0.13 mg/mL) as substrate. Unlike many other protein kinases, CDPK was able to utilize Mg2(+)-GTP, in addition to Mg2(+)-ATP, as phosphate donor. The enzyme phosphorylated histone III-S exclusively on serine; however, CDPK autophosphorylated on both serine and threonine residues. These properties demonstrate that CDPK belongs to a new class of protein kinase.

We have detected a protein kinase which phosphorylates bone phosphoproteins (BPPs) in the detergent extract of the membranous fractions in the periosteal bone strips of 12-day-embryonic-chick tibia. This enzyme, tentatively named BPP kinase, has a catalytic subunit of Mr approximately 39,000, utilizes GTP as well as ATP as a phospho-group donor, is inhibited by 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate and heparin, and is therefore similar to casein kinase II. The enzyme can phosphorylate dephosphorylated proteins such as casein, phosvitin and chicken BPPs, but the last-named are preferred substrates. The in vitro-phosphorylation-assay products of this enzyme in the extract were indistinguishable on an SDS/polyacrylamide gel from the major [32P]phosphoproteins metabolically labelled in the embryonic-chick bone tissue. The regulatory mechanisms of the phosphorylation process of BPPs by BPP kinase as well as the potential role of this enzyme in mineralization are discussed.
