The protein kinase activity of a 10,000 g supernatant of purified human lymphocytes can be resolved by DEAE-cellulose chromatography into six protein kinase fractions: three of them phosphorylate casein preferentially, and three histones. The same procedure with the corresponding nuclear fraction yields only two casein kinases. All these fractions, except one casein kinase of the cytosol, have been studied with respect to protein and nucleotide specificity, effect of salts and of cyclic nucleotides, sedimentation, etc. The results obtained indicate that the enzyme fractions of the cytosol have distinct characteristics, suggesting that they are different protein kinases, and that the nuclear kinases are similar to the two main casein kinases of the cytosol.

The lactating mammary gland synthesizes and secretes large amounts of phosphoproteins that mainly are associated with the casein fraction of milk. The free amino acids and inorganic phosphate of blood serve as building materials for casein, and the final product appears in milk as a colloidal-sized particle, the casein micelle. According to our present concept, the biosynthesis of casein occurs in two steps: synthesis of the polypeptide chain, followed by phosphate addition. Phosphate groups are transferred to the nascent casein by a protein kinase localized in the Golgi apparatus. The enzyme uses adenosine 5'-triphosphate as the phosphate donor and requires divalent cations. Neighboring amino acids may be important in determining which serine residues in casein are phosphorylated. This review discusses historical and current research on the phosphorylation of casein.

A protein kinase which phosphorylated histone and protamine was partially purified from bovine cerebellum. Casein and phosvitin were inert as substrates. The enzyme did not require any cyclic nucleotide. A sulfhydryl compound such as 2-mercaptoethanol, glutathione, or cysteine was necessary for the reaction. The optimum pH was 8.5 to 9.0 Km values for ATP and whole histone were 3.3 X 10(-6) M and 150 microgram/ml, respectively. The optimum concentration of Mg2+ varied with histone fractions employed; with H2B histone as substrate the enzyme was most active at 50 to 100 nM Mg2", whereas with H1 and H2A histones the maximum activity was observed at 5 to 10 mM Mg2+ and with H3 and H4 histones the enzyme was active over a range of 5 to 75 mM Mg2+. The enzyme phosphorylated Ser-32 and Ser-36 in H2B histone and Ser-38 in H1 histone, although the reaction with Ser-36 in H2B histone was very slow. The molecular weight was 6.4 X 10(4). The sedimentation coefficient and Stokes radium were about 4.5 and 29 A, respectively. The enzyme showed heterogeneity upon isoelectrofocusing electrophoresis with isoelectric points of 5.6, 6.0, and 6.6. The enzyme was not inhibited by protein inhibitor nor by the regulatory subunit of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. Preliminary analysis suggested that the enzyme was produced from its precursor protein by a limited proteolytic reaction.

Nuclear and cytoplasmic protein kinases were measured during the traverse of synchronous CHO cultures through G1 into S phase. Cells were synchronized by selective detachment of cells blocked in metaphase using colcemid. Nuclei were isolated and the protein kinases extracted from the nuclear preparation with 0.6 M NaCl. This procedure solubilized greater than 90% of the total protein kinase activity present in the nuclear preparation. DEAE chromatography of this extract showed 5 apparently different ionic forms of nuclear protein kinases. The nuclear protein kinases preferred casein and phosvitin to histone as substrates and were cyclic AMP-independent. Nuclear protein kinase activities increased greater than two-fold, when expressed as units of activity per cell nucleus, during G1 phase traverse, concomitant with a 70% increase in nuclear non-histone proteins (those soluble in 0.6 M NaCl). This resulted in only a 40% increase in the specific activities (units/microgram protein in 0.6 M NaCl extractable nuclear fraction) of these enzymes as cells progressed through G1 into S phase. This was in contrast to cytoplasmic cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase activities which also increased two-fold during progression through G1 phase while total cellular protein increased less than 20%. Activation of, as well as synthesis of, cyclic AMP-dependent cytoplasmic protein kinases during G1 phase suggests a regulatory mechanism for precise temporal phosphorylation, whereas the constant specific activity in nuclear kinases during cell cycle is more compatible with the maintenance of bulk phosphorylation processes in the nucleus.

A cAMP-independent protein kinase from chicken liver phosphorylated and inactivated pyruvate kinase type M2 from the same tissue. Complete inactivation was reached when 4 mol of phosphate were incorporated/mol of tetrameric pyruvate kinase. The protein kinase bound with high affinity to pyruvate kinase type M2 (Km value for pyruvate kinase = 6 X 10(-10)M; it phosphorylated phosvitin and casein but not histones, ATP and GTP were substrates. The differences between the properties of this protein kinase in the interconversion of pyruvate kinase and that described previously are discussed.

Both cytosol and membranes of human erythrocytes display protein kinase activity towards exogenous protein substrates such as casein, phosvitin and histones. The histone kinase activity, unlike casein kinase, of both cytosol and membranes is increased by cyclic AMP. The protein kinase forms removed from the membranes with 0.7 M NaCl, phosphorylate only serine residues of both casein and histones through a mechanism cyclic AMP-independent. The protein kinase activity located in the cytosol (hemolysate) is due also to enzyme forms phosphorylating both serine and threonine residues of casein, in addition to forms phosphorylating only serine residues of casein and histones. Also the cytosol kinase forms, once partially purified by Sepharose 6B filtration, appear to be cyclic AMP-independent.

Protein kinase associated with rat liver microsomes was only partly extracted by treatment with 1.5 M KCl. The enzyme was solubilised by Triton X-100 or sodium deoxycholate at the same or slightly higher detergent concentrations than microsomal marker components. The enzyme activity increased 2-3 fold upon solubilisation. Three peaks with protein kinase activity (fractions MI, MII and MIII) were resolved on DEAE-cellulose chromatography. Fraction MIII but not fractions MI or MII was activated by adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP). All fractions catalysed the phosphorylation of protamine and histones but not that of casein or phosvitin. Fractions MI and MIII had a similar substrate specificity and phosphorylated histones at a relatively much higher rate than did fraction MII. The isoelectric points were 8.1 for fraction MI, 5.5 for fraction MII and 4.9 for fraction MIII. On incubation of fraction MIII with cyclic AMP it was split into two catalytically active components with pI 8.1 and 7.35. The component with pI 8.1 was predominant and corresponded to fraction MI. Five protein kinase peaks were resolved from rat liver cytosol by DEAE-cellulose chromatography. Three of them (fractions CIa, CIIb and CIII) had the same properties as each of the microsomal kinase fractions. A forth fraction (CIIa) was cyclic-AMP-dependent and had the same substrate specificity as fractions MI and MIII. Its pI was 5.1, and it was split into two components by cyclic AMP (pI 8.1 and 7.35). In binding studies fraction CIIb bound more efficiently to microsomes than fraction CIII, while fractions CIa, CIIa and the microsomal protein kinase fractions did not bind appreciably. When microsomes were treated with trypsin exposed protein kinase was inactivated and the latency of the remaining enzyme increased substantially. Most of fraction MII was inactivated by trypsin while fraction MIII was resistant. The possible orientation of protein kinase fractions MII and MIII in the microsomal membrane is discussed.

Multiple protein kinase activities were isolated from nuclei of rat and hepatoma 3924A, and purified 40- to 140-fold, respectively. Hepatic protein kinase-I exhibited high activity with casein as substrate, but was relatively inactive with either liver and hepatoma chromatin or mixed histone. In contrast, hepatoma protein kinase-I showed equivalent activity with casein and liver chromatin. Protein kinase-IIA, -IIB and-IIC from both tissues were more active with liver chromatin in comparison to casein and hepatoma chromatin, and exhibited similar electrophoretic profiles of 32P-chromatin.

The level of endogenous protein phosphorylation in non-histone chromosomal and ribosomal wash proteins is 7--10 times greater in SV40-transformed rat cells than in untransformed parental cells. Protein kinase activity in these proteins was fractionated by either phosphocellulose or DEAE-cellulose chromatography. One major and one minor component were detected in non-histone proteins and only one component in ribosomal wash proteins when the activity in each fraction was measured with an exogenous substrate, casein. These enzymes prefer casein to whole histone as substrate and are cyclic AMP-independent. The enzyme activity in a major peak of non-histone proteins and in ribosomal wash proteins measured with casein as substrate is 3 times greater in transformed cells than in untransformed cells, whereas pH optimum, cation requirements and apparent Km values for casein and ATP are identical or very similar in the two cell types. No significant phosphatase was detected in non-histone and ribosomal wash proteins from the two types of cell. The patterns of endogenous protein phosphorylation in these protein fractions analysed by gel electrophoresis are significantly different between these cells. These results suggest that the high level of endogenous protein phosphorylation in non-histone and ribosomal wash proteins from SV40-transformed cells is caused mainly by the increased activity of protein kinase and the nature of protein substrates.

Thyroxine control of cAMP-independent histone and casein phosphokinase activities was studied in thyroidectomized rats treated with thyroxine. All activities were evaluated in the presence of a thermostable inhibitor of cAMP-dependent enzymes. Cytosol enzymes can be resolved by sucrose gradient ultracentrifugation into three peaks of histone kinase activity (3.2S, 5S and 7.2S) and two peaks of casein kinases (3.6S and 7.1S). Neither thyroidectomy nor subsequent treatment of operated animals with thyroxine modifies the total histone kinase activity estimated, either in total cytosol or after its fractionation by the sucrose gradient ultracentrifugation. The activity ratios of different peaks were, however, changed. Casein kinase activity was significantly decreased after thyroidectomy (about 50%). Subsequent treatment with thyroxine restored this activity to its initial value. Sucrose gradient ultracentrifugation analysis showed that thyroxine action on the casein kinase activity is very specific. Only molecules that sediment in the 9S region were significantly stimulated by the hormone. Cortisol action on the casein kinase activity was studied in adrenalectomized animals treated with hormone for 24 h. Cortisol decreases the total casein kinase activity by about 30%. Sucrose gradient ultracentrifugation analysis showed that the population of molecules sedimenting at about 9S was the most sensitive to cortisol. The above data show that both thyroxine and cortisol control, in a selective way, the activities of cAMP-independent protein kinases. The same kinase molecules can be under double control by two different hormones that have opposite effects.
