A protein kinase has been extracted from bovine rod outer segments by a mild procedure. The enzyme acts specifically on photobleached, not unbleached, rhodopsin and will not catalyze the phosphorylation of histones, phosvitin, or casein. We propose the name "opsin kinase" for the enzyme, which is not affected by cyclic nucleotides but which is inhibited by theophylline. Preparations of purified rod outer segments, however, appear to contain only low concentration of opsin phosphatase activity.

An adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate-dependent protein kinase II (ATP:protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37) was partially purified from the cytosol fraction of an exponentially growing culture of Tetrahymena pyriformis. Protein kinase II represented approximately 90% of the cytosolic protein kinase activity. The enzyme had a high degree of substrate specificity for calf thymus and Tetrahymena histones as compared to casein, protamine and phosvitin. The enzyme incorporated the terminal phosphate of ATP into serine and threonine residues of all the histone fractions. The apparent Km of the enzyme for adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP) was 1-10-minus 8 M. Protein kinase II was also activated by other cyclic nucleotides with apparent Km values in the range 2.k-10-minus 6 M. Ther specific activity of the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase of Tetrahymena decreases markedly from initial high values during the transition from the lag to early log phase of growth. This is followed by a shrp increase in the activity of the enzyme as the log phase of growth progresses. The specific activity of the enzyme increases rapidly during the heat-induced synchronization of Tetrahymena cells. The capacity for rapid phosphorylation of multiple classed of organelle-specific phosphoproteins and the level of cyclic AMP were maximal in Tetrahymena during the earliest phase of growth. These results demonstrate that the cell cycle of Tetrahymena may be coordinated by marked variations in the level of cyclic AMP which in turn regulate the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase.

We have shown that nuclei isolated by two methods contain grossly different amounts of cyclic AMP-dependent histone kinase activity. Repeated washing of the isolated nuclei with a low ionic strength buffer removed the majority of the cyclic AMP-dependent histone kinase and cyclic AMP binding activity. Nuclear cyclic AMP-dependent histone kinase activity accounted for only 0.42% of the total cytoplasmic enzyme activity. Similarly, the lactate dehydrogenase activity associated with liver nuclei represented only 0.07% of the total cytoplasmic activity. The isolated liver nuclei contained only 0.27% of the total homogenate glutamate dehydrogenase activity and 1.7%of the total homogenate glucose-6-phosphatase activity. The cyclic AMP-dependent histone kinase behaves as a cytoplasmic rather than a nuclear enzyme. We have also shown that using crude extracts, one can achieve separation of the two nuclear casein kinases, NI and NII, on sucrose density gradients in the presence of 0.5M NaCl. Nuclear casein kinases NI and NII had sedimentation coefficients of 3.0 and 593 S, respectively, in the presence of 0.5 M NaCl. Under conditions of low ionic strength, all of the casein kinase activity in the crude nuclear extract sedimented as one peak with a seminentation coefficient of 7.3 S. The aggregation-disaggregation which occurred in the crude extract was reversible and was mainly due to the aggregative and disaggregative properties of casein kinase NII. The two nuclear casein kinases have different affinities for chromatin. When nuclei were disrupted in a hypotonic solution and extracted with a buffercontaining 0.14 M NaCl, casein kinase NII could be completely extracted from the viscous nuclear material. Although a significant amount of casein kinase NI was extracted by the buffer containing 0.14 M NaCl, re-extraction of the nuclear material with a buffer containing 0.5 M NaCl yielded substantial amounts of casein kinase NI, and a final extraction with a buffer containing 1.0 M NaCl yielded measurable amounts of casein kinase NI. No casein kinase NII activity could be detected in the 0.5 M and 1.0M NaCl extracts.

Three protein kinases (ATP:protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37) were detected when the soluble fraction of rabbit kidney medulla was chromatographed on DEAE-cellulose with a linear NaC1 gradient. The first two kinases eluted (Peak 1 and Peak II) were cyclic-AMP-dependent, wheras Peak III was cyclic-AMP-independent. A procedure was developed to separate the catalytic subunit of Peak II cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase (representing the bulk of the histone kinase activity) from Peak III protein kinase. In contrast to the catalytic subunit, Peak III protein kinase phosphorylated casein more rapidly than histone. Peak III was insensitive to the heat-stable protein inhibitor of cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinases and appeared to have a higher requirement for ATP than did the catalytic subunit. Peak III catalyzed the conversion of glycogen synthase (UDPglucose:glycogen alpha-4-glucosyltransferase, EC 2.4.1.11) from the I (glucose-6-phosphate-independent) to the D (glucose-6-phosphate-dependent) form. This conversion was dependent on Mg-2+ and ATP and was unaffected by cyclic AMP, cyclic GMP, or the protein inhibitor. Glycogen synthase I in the soluble fraction of kidney medulla could be converted to the D form by endogenous glycogen synthase I kinase if Mg-2+ and ATP were added. Most of this glycogen synthase I kinase activity was unaffected by cyclic AMP or by the protein inhibitor, suggesting that Peak III may be of major importance in the regulation of glycogen synthase in vivo.

Polyphosphate kinase, an enzyme which incorporated the gamma-phosphate of ATP into long-chain polyphosphate molecules, was purified more than 700-fold from Arthrobacter atrocyaneus by ammonium sulphate fractionation, DEAE-cellulose column chromatography and Ssphadex G-200 gel filtration. The enzyme had a broad pH optimum at 6-0 to 7-0 and required Mn2+ or Mg2+, histone, and inorganic phosphate for activity. The Km for Mn-ATP was 0-53 mM, and for inorganic phosphate was 1-67 mM. Free ATP concentrations greater than 8 muM inhibited the enzyme. Free Mn2+ or Mg2+ concentrations greater than 2 mM or 6 mM, respectively, were also inhibitory. Activity was strongly inhibited by 4 mM-ADP, 1 mM-PP1 or 20 mM-NaF. The effect of ADP might have resulted from reversing the equilibrium of the kinase reaction. The activation by phosphate ions might indicate a role for the enzyme in regulating intracellular phosphate levels or maintaining a phosphorus reserve. The level of enzymic activity in the bacteria responded to changes in inorganic phosphate concentration in the medium. Basic proteins, such as protamine, could substitute for histone as activator. Proteins such as casein or bovine serum albunim would also substitute for histone but only in the absence of inorganic phosphate. The presence of a protein might be necessary to form a complex with the product, thus preventing reversal of the reaction in vitro. The reaction product was characterized, and found to be labile in hydroxylamine, base, and acid at 100 degrees C. It behaved as a long-chain-polyphosphate molecule on chromatography in an Ebel's solvent. The enzymic activity was therefore not that of a protein kinase.

1. Cell-free lysates of human peripheral blood lymphocytes contained two casein kinase activities and two histone kinase activities, which could be separated by chromatography on DEAE-Sephadex. 2. Neither of the casein kinase activities were stimulated by cyclic AMP. The major activity was eluted from DEAE-Sephadex between 0.4 and 0.45M-KCl, had a molecular weight of approx. 130,000 (sucrose density gradients) and was stimulated by KCl (maximum 150mM). It also formed higher-molecular-weight aggregates when centrifuged in sucrose gradients containing 150mM-KCl. The minor activity was not retained by DEAE-Sephadex, had a molecular weight of approx. 50,000 and was not stimulated by KCl. 3. The major histone kinase activity was stimulated by cyclic AMP and was eluted from the DEAE-Sephadex column between 0.05 and 0.2M-KCl. The other activity was not stimulated by cyclic AMP and was insensitive to the rabbit muscle protein kinase inhibitor. 4. Evidence was obtained suggesting that the lymphocyte casein kinases were located primarily in the nuclei.

Using a homogeneous enzyme from rabbit skeletal muscle, it has been demonstrated that the cyclic adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP)-dependent protein kinase reaction is reversible. In addition to the phosphorylated protein substrate, the reverse reaction requires Mg2+, ADP, and cyclic AMP when the holoenzyme is used as the source of enzyme. It is independent of cyclic AMP when the catalytic subunit of the protein kinase is used. The optimum pH for the reverse reaction with 32P-labeled casein as the substrate is 5.7, essentially the same as that for the forward reaction. Among the nucleotide subtrates tested, ADP serves as the best phosphoryl group acceptor. The Km of the enzyme for ADP is 3.3 mM and that for 32P-casein is 1.7 mg/ml. The equilibrium constant at 30 degrees is approximately 0.042 at a magnesium concentration of 10 mM and a pH of 6.9. This result indicates that the free energy of hydrolysis (deltaG0obs) of the phosphorylated protein substrate is relatively high, i.e. approximately -6.5 kcal/mol under these conditions.

The protein kinase activities of a transplantable, insulin-producing hamster islet cell tumor were characterized using gel filtration, sucrose density gradient centrifugation and acrylamide gel electrophoresis. The post-microsomal supernatant fluid contains 70-80% of the protein kinase activity present in crude homogenates. A cAMP-dependent protein kinase, PK I (Mr 170,000), represents 25% of the soluble protein kinase activity assayed with protamine as substrate. It dissociates in the presence of cAMP into a cAMP-binding protein, R2 (Mr 90,000) and a catalytic subunit C (Mr 33,000). The dissociation induced by cAMP seems to be facilitated by the addition of Mg2+ and ATP. The regulatory subunit, R2, changes its gel filtration pattern in the presence of 0.5 M NaCl suggesting dissociation into a smaller subunit, R1 (Mr 44,000). By analogy with purified beef heart protein kinase (Erlichman et al., 1973) and skeletal muscle protein kinase, PK I. The presence in crude homogenates of a free cAMP-binding protein indistinguishable from the R2 derived by dissociation of PK I, suggests that PK I is partially dissociated in vivo. A cAMP-independent (casein) kinase (Mr 210,000) elutes with PK I on columns of Sepharose 6B. Another cAMP-independent protein kinase, PK II (Mr 88,000), is the predominatn form of soluble protein kinase accounting for approximately 75% of the soluble protein kinase activity detected using protaimine as substrate. This cAMP-independent protein kinase changes its gel filtration pattern in the presence of 0.5 M NaCl giving rise to a form which appears to have the same Mr (33,000) as the catalytic subunit of PK I. Studies comparing the catalytic subunit C of PK I with PK II and its salt-induced smaller molecular form demonstrate facile association of C with the cAMP-binding protein of purified bovine heart protein kinase to yield a hybrid holoenzyme, whereas PK II and its smaller form fail to recombine in this fashion. The 33,000 dalton forms derived from PK I (by cAMP) and PK II (by salt) also show different substrate specificities. It would appear, therefore, that pK II is a cAMP-independent protein kinase unrelated to PK I.

Guanosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cyclic GMP)-dependent protein kinase was purified from the guinea pig fetal lung, a tissue shown to be the richest in this enzyme in all mammalian sources examined, and its general properties studied. The enzyme was purified 150-fold from crude extract by steps of pH 5.4 isoelectric precipitation, Sephadex G-200 filtration, hydroxylapatite treatment and DEAE-cellulose chromatography. The purified enzyme, free from contamination with adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP)-dependent protein kinase, had a specific activity at least equivalent to 600-fold purification of the enzyme from the adult lung. The pulmonary enzyme exhibited an absolute requirement of protein kinase modulator (prepared from various mammalian tissues with an exception of skeletal muscle) for its activity. Inhibitor protein of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase purified from rabbit skeletal muscle could not stimulate nor inhibit the cyclic GMP target enzyme, indicating the factors from mammalian sources regulating the two classes of protein kinases may not be the same. The enzyme had Ka values of 1.3 times 10(-8) and 3.3 times 10(-8) M for 8-bromo cyclic GMP and cyclic GMP, respectively, compared to 3.0 times 10(-6) M for cyclic AMP. Cyclic GMP lowered the Km of the enzyme for ATP from 6.3 times 10(-5) M in its absence to 2.1 times 10(-5) M in its presence, accompanied by an approximate doubling of the Vmax. The molecular weight of the enzyme (assayed by its catalytic and cyclic GMP-binding abilities) was estimated to be 123,000, corresponding to a sedimendation coefficient of 7.06 S, by means of sucrose density gradient ultracentrifugation. The cyclic GMP-dependent enzyme required Mg2+ and Co2+ for its activity with optimal concentrations of about 30 and 0.7 mM, respectively. The maximal activity seen in the presence of Mg2+, however, was nearly twice as high as that seen in the presence of Co2+. Histones were generally effective substrates for the enzyme, whereas protamine, casein, phosvitin, phosphorylase kinase, and activator protein of phosphodiesterase were not. The cyclic GMP-dependent enzyme exhibited a greater affinity for histones than did the cyclic AMP-dependent enzyme in the presence of Mg2+.

A cyclic AMP dependent protein kinase (EC 2.7.1.37) from sea urchin sperm as purified to near homogeneity and characterized. A 68-fold purification of the enzyme was obtained. This preparation had a specific activity of 389 000 units/mg protein with protamine as the substrate. On the basis of the purification required, it may be calculated that the protein kinase constitutes as much as 1.5% of the soluble protein in sperm. There appeared to be a single form of the enzyme in sea urchin sperm, based on the behavior of the enzyme during DEAE-cellulose and Sephadex G-200 column chromatography. Magnesium ion was required for enzyme activity. The rate of phosphorylation of protamine was stimulated 2.5-fold by an optimal concentration of 0.9 M NaCl. The Km for ATP (minus cyclic AMP) was 0.119 +/- 0.013 (S.D.) and 0.055 mM +/- 0.009 (S.D.) in the presence of cyclic AMP. The specificity of the enzyme toward protein acceptors, in decreasing order of phosphorylation, was found to be histone f1 protamine, histone f2b, histone f3 and histone f2a; casein and phosvitin were not phosphorylated. The holoenzyme was found to have an apparent molecular weight of 230 000 by Sephadex G-200 chromatography. In the presence of 5 - 10(-6) M cyclic AMP, the holoenzyme was dissociated on Sephadex G-200 to a regulatory subunit of molecular weight 165 000 and a catalytic subunit of Mr 73 000. The dissociation could also be demonstrated by disc gel electrophoresis in the presence and absence of cyclic AMP.
