Extracts from human adenovirus type 5 (Ad5)-transformed cells were fractionated by ammonium sulphate precipitation, DEAE-Sephacel chromatography and glycerol gradient centrifugation. In all cases, protein kinase activity co-purified with the 58 000 mol. wt. polypeptide (58K) coded for by the early 1B region of Ad5. Kinase activity was also precipitated by an antiserum raised against a synthetic peptide corresponding to the predicted carboxy terminus of 58K. These data suggest that protein kinase activity is associated with 58K, either intrinsically or in an enzyme bound to 58K.

Transfection of Buffalo rat liver cells with closed circular hepatitis B virus DNA resulted in the synthesis of both hepatitis B e and surface antigens. A 14000 mol. wt. peptide bearing hepatitis B e antigenic determinants was isolated from cell culture fluids. Native hepatitis B e antigen was present in multimeric forms in the cell culture fluids and was associated with protein phosphokinase activity. The multimeric forms of hepatitis B e antigen may serve both structural and enzymic functions for the hepatitis B virion with its small genome.

The 58000 dalton (58K) protein coded for by early region 1B of human adenovirus type 5 (Ad5) was found to be phosphorylated. At least three major tryptic phosphopeptides were identified and the average number of phosphates per 58K molecule was estimated to be between two and three. Thus, it was possible that each phosphopeptide contained just one phosphate group. The ratio of phosphoserine to phosphothreonine was about 2 to 1 on average and essentially no phosphotyrosine was detected. No evidence was found to suggest that cAMP-dependent protein kinase was involved in the phosphorylation of 58K. Previous studies have shown that 58K was phosphorylated when immunoprecipitates containing Ad5 early region 1 proteins were incubated in vitro with [gamma-32P]ATP. Analysis of the phosphopeptides of 58K labelled under these conditions indicated a large number of phosphorylation sites which differed from those found in vivo. Thus, the action of kinases in the in vitro phosphorylation of 58K in immunoprecipitates did not mimic the enzymic activity responsible for 58K phosphorylation in vivo.

Formalin-fixed Staphylococcus aureus strain Cowan, bearing protein A, routinely used for the absorption of antigen-antibody complexes, was found to bind protein kinase activity from disrupted Moloney murine leukaemia virus (Mo-MuLV). The Wood strain of S. aureus lacking protein A also bound the kinase with similar efficiency. About 50% of the bound kinase activity, as detected by phosphorylation of casein using [gamma-32P]ATP, could be eluted from the bacterial preparation with buffer containing 0 X 5 M-KC1. Similar results were obtained with Moloney murine sarcoma virus (Mo-MuSV) strain 349 and ts110 MuSV(MuLV). The bacterial preparation was also found to bind casein kinase activity from cellular extracts of uninfected, Rauscher murine leukaemia virus (R-MuLV)-infected and Mo-MuLV-infected cells. Analysis of [3H]leucine-labelled proteins from purified virus showed selective binding to S. aureus of only two major labelled virus proteins. One virus component bound to S. aureus had the relative mobility of p15; the other polypeptide co-migrated with virus p10. Upon exposure to increased salt concentration, most of the p10 but very little of the p15 proteins were released. The S. aureus-binding proteins from ts110 Mo-MuSV and MuSV-349 revealed similar binding and elution patterns of p10 and p15 molecules. The p10 and protein kinase activity eluted from Mo-MuLV-absorbed bacteria were separated by gel filtration into a high molecular weight species, containing p10 and kinase activity, and a low molecular weight p10 monomer lacking enzymic activity.

The recessive, nuclear gene mutation glc1, which causes glycogen deficiency in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, is highly pleiotropic. Studies of the inheritance of glc1 revealed two classes of phenotypic characteristics: I. Traits invariably associated with the mutant gene and II. Traits whose expressions require the presence of glc1 and one or more additional genes. Class I traits include glycogen deficiency and the loss of capacity to accumulate trehalose in nonproliferating conditions. Traits in the second class include a decreased rate of growth on ethanol medium, a deficiency in cytochrome a.a3 and an enhanced accumulation of pigment, probably a metalloporphyrin. Constructed strains containing both glc1 and the constitutive maltose fermentation gene MAL4c can accumulate trehalose but not glycogen during growth on glucose. However, accumulated trehalose is degraded when cells are exposed to nonproliferating conditions. It is proposed that the glc1 mutation affects a regulatory system, probably involving a protein kinase and/or protein phosphatase, which regulates glycogen synthase and trehalase. Independent regulation of trehalose synthesis by a system controlled by MAL4c is indicated.

Coronavirus JHM contains six major proteins, one of which, the 60 000 mol. wt. nucleocapsid protein pp60, is phosphorylated. In JHM-infected cells ip 60K, the intracellular precursor to pp60 is also phosphorylated. Associated with purified JHM virions is a protein kinase which will phosphorylate pp60 and a variety of exogenous substances in vitro. The enzyme has the characteristics of a cyclic nucleotide-independent protein kinase. Both the in vivo reaction and the enzyme activity in vitro transferred the gamma-phosphate of ATP to serine residues on the nucleocapsid protein.

The cdc2+ gene product (p34cdc2) is a protein kinase that regulates entry into mitosis in all eukaryotic cells. The role that p34cdc2 plays in the cell cycle has been extensively investigated in a number of organisms, including the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe. To study the degree of functional conservation among evolutionarily distant p34cdc2 proteins, we have constructed a S. pombe strain in which the yeast cdc2+ gene has been replaced by its Drosophila homologue CDC2Dm (the CDC2Dm strain). This CDC2Dm S. pombe strain is viable, capable of mating and producing four viable meiotic products, indicating that the fly p34CDC2Dm recognizes all the essential S. pombe cdc2+ substrates, and that it is recognized by cyclin partners and other elements required for its activity. The p34CDC2Dm protein yields a lethal phenotype in combination with the mutant B-type cyclin p56cdc13-117, suggesting that this S. pombe cyclin might interact less efficiently with the Drosophila protein than with its native p34cdc2 counterpart. This CDC2Dm strain also responds to nutritional starvation and to incomplete DNA synthesis, indicating that proteins involved in these signal transduction pathways, interact properly with p34CDC2Dm (and/or that p34cdc2-independent pathways are used). The CDC2Dm gene produces a 'wee' phenotype, and it is largely insensitive to the action of the S. pombe wee1+ mitotic inhibitor, suggesting that Drosophila wee1+ homologue might not be functionally conserved. This CDC2Dm strain is hypersensitive to UV irradiation, to the same degree as wee1-deficient mutants. A strain which co-expresses the Drosophila and yeast cdc2+ genes shows a dominant wee phenotype, but displays a wild-type sensitivity to UV irradiation, suggesting that p34cdc2 triggers mitosis and influences the UV sensitivity by independent mechanisms.

An intermediate-conductance K+ channel (I.K.), the activity of which is increased by hyperpolarization, was previously identified in the lateral membrane of the cortical collecting duct (CCD) of the rat kidney (Wang, W. H., C. M. McNicholas, A. S. Segal, and G. Giebisch. 1994. American Journal of Physiology. 266:F813-F822). The biophysical properties and regulatory mechanisms of this K+ channel have been further investigated with patch clamp techniques in the present study. The slope conductance of the channel in inside-out patches was 50 pS with 140 mM KCl in the pipette and 5 mM KCl, 140 mM NaCl (NaCl Ringer's solution) in the bath. Replacement of the bath solution with symmetrical 140 mM KCl solution changed the slope conductance of the channel to 85 pS and shifted the reversal potential by 55 mV, indicating that the selectivity ratio of K+/Na+ was at least 10:1. Channel open probability (Po) in inside-out patches was 0.12 at 0 mV and was increased by hyperpolarization. The voltage-dependent Po was fitted with the Boltzmann's equation: Po = 1/[1 + exp(V-V1/2)zF/RT], with z = 1.2 and V1/2 = -40 mV. Addition of 2 mM tetraethylammonium or 500 mM quinidine to the bath blocked the activity of the K+ channel in inside-out patches. In addition, decrease in the bath pH from 7.40 to 6.70 reduced Po by 30%. Addition of the catalytic subunit of protein kinase A (PKAc; 20 U/ml) and 100 microM [corrected] MgATP to the bath increased Po from 0.12 to 0.49 at 0 mV and shifted the voltage dependence curve of channel activity toward more positive potentials by 40 mV. Two exponentials were required to fit both the open-time and the closed-time histograms. Addition of PKAc increased the long open-time constant and shortened the long closed-time constant. In conclusion, PKA-mediated phosphorylation plays an important role in the regulation of the voltage dependence of the hyperpolarization-activated K+ channel in the basolateral membrane of CCD.

Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent phosphoprotein phosphatase (calcineurin, PP2B) of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is implicated in adaptation to high-salt conditions. Calcineurin mediates high salt-induced expression of the ENA1/PMR2 gene encoding the P-type ATPase, which is suggested to be involved in Na+ efflux. We identified the PDE1 gene encoding the low-affinity cAMP phosphodiesterase as a multicopy suppressor of the Li(+)- and Na(+)-sensitive calcineurin null mutant, suggesting that cAMP is a negative regulator of adaptation to high-salt stress. Genetic analysis indicated that calcineurin and cAMP act antagonistically in a common pathway for adaptation. The bcy1 disruption, which leads to constitutive cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) activity inhibited high NaCl-induced expression of the ENA1/PMR2 gene, caused an elevation of the intracellular Na+ level and a growth defect in high-NaCl medium, all of which were analogous to the defects of a calcineurin mutant. A reduced cAMP level resulting from multiple copies of the PDE1 gene caused increased expression of the ENA1/PMR2 gene in response to high NaCl. We propose a model for the regulation of cation homeostasis, in which calcineurin antagonizes PKA to activate transcription of the ENA1/PMR2 gene in response to high-salt conditions.

The conservation in evolution of fundamental signal transduction modules offers a means of isolating genes likely to be involved in plant development. We have amplified by PCR Arabidopsis cDNA and genomic sequences related to the product of the shaggy/zeste-white 3 (sgg) segment polarity gene of Drosophila. This regulatory protein is functionally homologous to glycogen synthase kinase-3 in mammals (GSK-3), which regulates, among others, the DNA-binding activity of the c-jun/AP1 transcription factor. Analysis of PCR products led to the identification of five genes; for two of which, corresponding full-length cDNAs, ASK-alpha and gamma (for Arabidopsis shaggy-related protein kinase), were characterized. The encoded proteins were 70% identical to GSK-3 and sgg over the protein kinase catalytic domain and, after production in Escherichia coli, autophosphorylated mainly on threonine and serine residues, but phosphotyrosine was also detected. ASK-alpha and ASK-gamma also phosphorylated phosphatase inhibitor-2 and myelin basic protein, on threonine and serine, respectively. The high conservation of the protein kinases of GSK-3 family, and their action at the transcriptional level, suggest that the ASK proteins have important functions in higher plants.
