A number of properties of homogeneous cyclic 3',5'-AMP (cAMP)-dependent protein kinase from rabbit skeletal muscle were determined. The enzyme is shown to be a tetramer consisting of one regulatory subunit dimer and two catalytic subunit monomers. Skeletal muscle protein kinase interacts with cAMP and MgATP as illustrated in the following equilibrium expression: R2C2 - (MgATP)2 + 2 cAMP in equilibrium R2 - (cAMP)2 + 2C + 2 MgATP. MgATP is shown to decrease the affinity of the enzyme for cAMP and to be necessary for recombination of the subunits. The concentration of the enzyme in tissue relative to that of cAMP is high enough to influence kinetic parameters of the activation process by cAMP. The cumulative effects of MgATP and high enzyme concentration are to increase the apparent activation constant for cAMP so that in vivo the enzyme would not be highly activated under basal conditions but would be greatly stimulated by increases in cAMP concentration. As a result, it is not necessary to invoke the concept of compartmentalization of cAMP to explain how it could regulate protein kinase activity in vivo. Finally, data are presented which indicate that a possible function of the heat-stable protein inhibitor of cAMP-dependent protein kinases may be to suppress the activity of protein kinase due to basal concentrations of cAMP. As such, the inhibitor could indirectly change the amount of cAMP needed to allow expression of protein kinase activity.

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.

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.

The activity of purified RNA polymerase II from Novikoff ascites tumor cells is stimulated 5-7-fold by a purified protein factor. This protein factor, designated HLF2, has extensive protein kinase activity and catalyzed the incorporation of gamma-32G from ATP into protein under normal RNA polymerase assay conditions. Protein phosphorylation is totally dependent on the presence of HLF2 and is stimulated 2-3-fold by the presence of highly purified RNA polymerase II. The purification procedure developed for the isolation of the polymerase stimulatory factor resulted in a 4000-fold purification of a protein kinase. Chromatography on carboxymethylcellulose, phosphocellulose, and Sephadex G-100 did not resolve polymerase stimulatory activity from protein kinase activity. Adenylimidodiphosphate (AMP-PNP), an inhibitor of protein kinases, inhibited the stimulatory activity of purified factor by 80%. The heat denaturation profile of protein kinase was paralleled by the loss of polymerase stimulatory activity. Concentrations of (NH4)2SO4 which are known to inhibit polymerase stimulation (Lee and Dahmus, 1973) also inhibit protein kinase activity. The protein kinase activity associated with stimulatory factor catalyzes the phosphorylation of basic proteins such as protamine or histone. The protein kinase is not stimulated by cyclic 3', 5'-AMP or -GMP over a concentration range of 10(-6)-10(-4)M. Furthermore, protein kinase activity is not inhibited by either the regulatory subunit of rabbit muscle protein kinase or by the heat-stable inhibitor of cyclic 3', 5'-AMP-dependent protein kinases. Protein kinase activity is stimulated by KCl or NH4Cl and is inhibited by MnCl2. The apparent Km values, determined in the presence of 4 mM Mg2+, are 0.02 mM for ATP, and 4.1 mM for GTP.

A number of potential models for the interaction of cyclic AMP with protein kinase (RC or R2C2) have been examined. These include: Model 1, the simultaneous binding of cyclic AMP and release of C (catalytic subunit) from an independent RC protomer; Model 2, dissociation of an independent RC protomer prior to cyclic AMP binding to R (regulatory subunit); Model 3, cyclic AMP binding to RC prior to the dissociation of C; Model 4, random binding of cyclic AMP and dissociation of C with an interaction factor alpha less than 1; Model 5, release of 2C concomitant with the binding of one cyclic AMP to R2C2 followed by binding of the second cyclic AMP to the vacant R subunit; and Model 6, the simultaneous binding of cyclic AMP and release of C from one RC protomer resulting in a greater "affinity" of the other RC protomer for cyclic AMP, i.e., a cooperative version of Model 1. All the above models yield [cyclic AMP]0.5 values that increase with increasing protein concentration and Hill plots with average slopes equal to or less than 1.0 in the usual experimental range (10 to 90% of saturation). The Hill plots can be nonlinear, but for each model the exact shape of the plot changes in a characteristic (diagnostic) manner with changing protein concentration. Skeletal muscle protein kinase yields relatively linear Hill plots with napp values greater than 1.0. Consequently, Models 1 to 6 are not likely candidates. However, Model 2 is an excellent alternative model for proteins that display "negative cooperativity" with respect to the binding of a ligand. The properties of several "linear", "tetrahedral", and "all-or-nothing" cooperative models have also been examined. These include Models 7, A, B, and C and 8, A, B, and C which are cooperative versions of Models 2 and 3, respectively, and Model 9, a cooperative version of random Model 4. Model 9 is the most general model from which all others can be derived. Models 9 and 7, A, B, and C in which the prior dissociation of C greatly enhances or is an absolute requirement for cyclic AMP binding to R, are likely candidates for skeletal muscle protein kinase. All four of these models are capable of yielding Hill plots with average slopes greater than 1, and napp values that decrease with increasing protein concentration (in agreement with published data). In addition, in all four models the tight binding of MgATP to R2C2 yields decreased napp values and increased [cyclic AMP]0.5 values (also consistent with published data).

A protein kinase, designed KII, has been purified 5000-fold from Novikoff ascites tumor cells. The purification procedure also allows for the purification of a second major protein kinase, designated KI, as well as RNA polymerase I and II. Purified KII has a sedimentation constant of 7.6 S and a Stokes radius of 39 A, suggesting a molecular weight of about 122000. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the enzyme in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate suggests the enzyme is composed of subunits of molecular weights 44 000, 40 000, and 26 000 present in a molar ratio of 1:1:2. Incubation of the enzyme alone in the presence of [gamma-32P]ATP results in the phosphorylation of the 26 000-dalton subunit. Protein kinase II actively phosphorylates phosvitin, casein, and nonhistone chromosomal proteins but does not phosphorylate basic proteins such as histones or protamine to an appreciable extent. Km values of 3.6 micron for ATP and 6.5 micronM for GTP were determined in the presence of 4mM Mg2+. The enzyme is neither stimulated by cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate or cyclic guanosine 3', 5'-monophosphate nor inhibited by the regulatory subunit of rabbit muscle protein kinase. Its activity is stimulated by KCl at concentrations below 0.2 M and inhibited by higher concentrations.

A protein phosphokinase (EC 2.7.1.1.37) was isolated from baker's yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) after a 17,000-fold purification; the purified enzyme is homogeneous according to the criteria of gel electrophoresis and ultracentrifuge analysis. The enzyme has a high isoelectric point of ca. 9 and appears to exist as a monomer with a molecular weight of 42,000 plus or minus 1500. It is neither stimulated by cyclic 3',5'-AMP, -GMP, -CMP or -ump nor inhibited by the regulatory subunit of rabbit muscle protein kinase (Reimann, E. M., Walsh, D. A., and Krebs, E. G. (1971), J. Biol. Chem. 246, 1986). In the presence of divalent metal ions, preferably Mg-2+ or Mn-2+, the enzyme readily transfers the terminal phosphate group of ATP to phosvitin, alphaS1B- and beta a-casein and an NH2-terminal tryptic peptide derived from beta a-casein, but not to protamine, lysine, or arginine-rich histones or to yeast enzymes such as phosphorylase, phosphofructokinase, or pyruvate carboxylase; serine and polyserine were also inactive as phosphate acceptors. Km values of 0.17 mM for beta a-casein and 0.2 mMfor ATP were determined at 10 mM Mg-2+. The urified yeast protein kinase also catalyzes the reverse reaction, namely, the transfer of phosphate from fully phosphorylated beta a-casein or its NH2-terminal peptide to ADP resulting in the formation of ATP. AMP, GDP, UDP, and CDP did not serve as phosphate acceptors in this reaction. As observed by Rabinowitz and Lipmann (Rabinowitz, M., and Lipmann, F. (1960), J. Biol. Chem. 235, 1043) both reactions have different pHoptima with values of 7.5 for the forward reaction (phosphorylation of the proteins) and ca 5.2 for the formation of ATP; both are differently affected by salts. Phosphorylation of beta a-casein with [gamma-32-P]ATP followed by digestion of the labeled protein with trypsin indicated that all the radioactivity was exclusively introduced in an NH2-terminal peptide possessing the unique sequence: Glu-Ser(P)-Leu-Ser(P)-Ser(P)-Ser(P)-Glu-Glu...(Ribadeau-Dumas, B., Brignon, G., Grosclaude, F., and Mercier, J.-C. (1971), eur J. Biochem. 20, 264). By subjecting beta a-casein and its NH2-terminal peptide to the combined action of almond acid phosphatease and purified yeast protein kinase, it was determined that the phosphorylation and dephosphorylation reactions proceed randomly, i.e., all seryl phosphate residues are equally susceptible and that the rate of phosphorylation decreases drastically as the number of bound phosphate groups in the substrate diminishes.

Two protein kinases differing in substrate specificity were used to phosphorylate the 30-S and the 50-S ribosomal subunits of Escherichia coli. The catalytic subunit from the rabbit skeletal muscle protein kinase phosphorylates proteins S1, S4, S9, S13 and S18 of the 30-S subunit and proteins L2, L4, L5, L16, L18 and L23 of the 50-S subunit with (gamma-32P)ATP as phosphoryl donor. A second protein kinase isolated from rabbit reticulocytes, formerly shown to phosphorylate preferentially acidic proteins and to use GTP as well as ATP, strongly phosphorylated protein S6, an acidic protein of the small ribosomal subunit, and to a lesser extent proteins L7 and L12 or the large subunit. Evidence is presented showing different phosphorylation patterns when either whole subunits or the extracted proteins were used as substrate for the protein kinase. Kinetic studies showed proteins S1 and S4 to become most rapidly phosphorylated. Although most proteins incorporated less than stoichiometric amounts of phosphate, it is shown that with a high excess of ATP L2 bound 1 mol phosphate/mol protein.

The capacity of partially purified rat muscle protein kinase coupled to cyanogen-bromide-activated Sepharose 4B to (radio-)phosphorylate proteins in vitro was evaluated using histones from calf thymus and rat liver and certain proteins as substrates. Data are presented which point to a low substrate specificity of this enzyme. It is demonstrated that even within a short time period histones are efficiently phosphorylated without the introduction of contaminating (phospho-)proteins. Therebye phosphoserine residues are formed. The phosphorylation reaction usually performed at 30 degrees C is shown to function quite efficiently also at 4 degrees C. It proceeds even at 30 degrees C for several hours at pH values close to the physiological range without the release of proteins from the solid matrix. The phosphorus transfer can be largely increased with the use of high ATP concentrations. The stability of the substrates is sufficient to suggest a wide applicability of this solid-state protein kinase in the phosphorylation of proteins either for labeling or as a tool to modify proteins post-synthetically under gentle conditions. The solid enzyme seems to be suitable for radioactively labeling proteins of more complex biological structures, such as membrane surfaces.

The protein phosphatases which dephosphorylate native, sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR)-associated phospholamban were studied in cardiac muscle extracts and in a Triton fraction prepared by detergent extraction of myofibrils, the latter fraction containing 70-80% of the SR-associated proteins present in the tissue. At physiological concentrations of free Mg2+ (1 mM), protein phosphatase 1 (PP1) accounted for approximately 70% of the total phospholamban phosphatase activity in these fractions towards either Ser-16 (the residue labelled by cAMP-dependent protein kinase, PK-A) or Thr-17 (the residue phosphorylated by an SR-associated Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase). Protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) and protein phosphatase 2C (PP2C) accounted for the remainder of the activity. A major form of cardiac PP1, present in comparable amounts in both the extract and Triton fraction, was similar, if not identical, to skeletal muscle protein phosphatase 1G (PP1G), which is composed of the PP1 catalytic (C) subunit complexed to a G subunit of approximately 160 kDa, responsible for targeting PP1 to both the SR and glycogen particles of skeletal muscle. This conclusion was based on immunoblotting experiments using antibody to the G subunit, ability to bind to glycogen and the release of PP1 activity from glycogen upon incubation with PK-A and MgATP. PP1 accounted for approximately 90% of the phospholamban (Ser-16 or Thr-17) phosphatase activity in the material sedimented by centrifugation at 45,000 x g, a fraction prepared from cardiac extracts which is enriched in SR membranes. The G subunit in this fraction could be solubilised by Triton X-100, but not with 0.5 M NaCl or digestion with alpha-amylase, indicating that it is bound to membranes and not to glycogen. By analogy with the situation in skeletal muscle, the PK-A catalysed phosphorylation of the G subunit, with ensuing release of the C subunit from the SR, may prevent PP1 from dephosphorylating SR-bound substrates and represent one of the mechanisms by which adrenalin increases the phosphorylation of cardiac phospholamban (Ser-16 and Thr-17) in vivo. Hearts left in situ post mortem lose 85-95% of their PP1 activity within 20-30 min. This remarkable disappearance of PP1 may partly explain why the importance of this enzyme in cardiac muscle metabolism has not been recognized previously.
