In previous work we have demonstrated that the microtubule-associated protein 2 (MAP 2) molecule consists of two structural parts. One part of the molecule, referred to as the assembly-promoting domain, binds to the microtubule surface and is responsible for promoting microtubule assembly; the other represents a filamentous projection observed on the microtubule surface that may be involved in the interaction of microtubules with other cellular structures. MAP 2 is known to be specifically phosphorylated as the result of a protein kinase activity that is present in microtubule preparations. We have now found that the activity copurifies with the projection portion of MAP 2 itself. Kinase activity coeluted with MAP 2 when microtubule protein was subjected to either gel- filtration chromatography on bio-gel A-15m or ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE- Sephadex. The activity was released from microtubules by mild digestion with chymotrypsin in parallel with the removal by the protease of the MAP 2 projections from the microtubule surface. The association of the activity with the projection was demonstrated directly by gel filtration chromatography of the projections on bio-gel A-15m. Three protein species (M(r) = 39,000, 55,000, and 70,000) cofractionated with MAP 2, and two of these (M(r) = 39,000 and 55,000) may represent the subunits of an associated cyclic AMP- dependent protein kinase. The projection-associated activity was stimulated 10-fold by cyclic AMP and was inhibited more than 95 percent by the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitor from rabbit skeletal muscle. It appeared to represent the only significant activity associated with microtubules, almost no activity being found with tubulin, other MAPs, or the assembly-promoting domain of MAP 2, and was estimated to account for 7-22 percent of the total brain cytosolic protein kinase activity. The location of the kinase on the projection is consistent with a role in regulating the function of the projection, though other roles for the enzyme are also possible.

Homogenous preparations of the catalytic subunit of protein phosphatase-1 and inhibitor-2 can be combined to produce an inactive enzyme that consists of a 1:1 complex between these two proteins. This species is indistinguishable from the Mg-ATP-dependent protein phosphatase in that preincubation with glycogen synthase kinase-3 and Mg-ATP is required to generate activity. Activation results from the phosphorylation of inhibitor-2. The molar concentrations of protein phosphatase-1 and inhibitor-2 in rabbit skeletal muscle (0.25-0.5 microM) are similar. Incubation of the reconstituted Mg-ATP-dependent protein phosphatase with chymotrypsin is accompanied by limited proteolysis of inhibitor-2 and the loss of its phosphorylation site(s). This species can be activated by glycogen synthase kinase-3 and Mg-ATP provided that inhibitor-2 is added. This exogenous inhibitor-2 appears to displace the fragments of inhibitor-2 from the enzyme that were generated by chymotryptic digestion. These experiments may explain the report [Yang, S.D., Vandenheede, J.R. and Merlevede, W. (1981) J. Biol. Chem. 256, 10231-10234] that inhibitor-2 can function as an 'activator' as well as an inhibitor of the Mg-ATP-dependent protein phosphatase. Incubation of the catalytic subunit of protein phosphatase-1 with sodium fluoride or sodium pyrophosphate converted the enzyme to an inactive form that could be partially reactivated by manganese ions, but not by glycogen synthase kinase-3 and Mg-ATP. Conversely, the reconstituted Mg-ATP-dependent protein phosphatase could only be activated by glycogen synthase kinase-3 and Mg-ATP, and not by manganese ions. It is concluded that the conversion of protein phosphatase-1 to a manganese-ion dependent form is a quite separate phenomenon from the formation of the Mg-ATP-dependent protein phosphatase. Inhibitor-2 can inactivate protein phosphatase-1 by a second mechanism that is not reversed by preincubation with glycogen synthase kinase-3 and Mg-ATP. This occurs at higher concentrations of inhibitor-2 than those required to form the Mg-ATP-dependent protein phosphatase, and appears to result from the binding of inhibitor-2 to a distinct site on the enzyme.

The 350-residue amino acid sequence of the catalytic subunit of bovine cardiac muscle adenosine cyclic 3',5'-phosphate dependent protein kinase is described. The protein has a molecular weight of 40 862, which includes an N-tetradecanoyl (myristyl) group blocking the NH2 terminus and phosphate groups at threonine-197 and serine-338. Seven methionyl bonds in the S-carboxymethylated protein were cleaved with cyanogen bromide to yield eight primary peptides. These fragments, and subpeptides generated by cleavage with trypsin, pepsin, chymotrypsin, thermolysin, and Myxobacter AL-1 protease II, were purified and analyzed to yield the majority of the sequence. The primary peptides were aligned by analyses of overlapping peptides, particularly of methione-containing tryptic peptides generated after in vitro [14C]methyl exchange labeling of methionyl residues in the intact protein.

Three forms of protein phosphatase-1 were isolated from rabbit skeletal muscle that had Mr values of 37 000, 34 000 and 33 000 determined by sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) gel electrophoresis. Each species dephosphorylated the beta-subunit of phosphorylase kinase very much faster than the alpha-subunit, was inhibited by inhibitors 1 and 2 with equal potency, and was converted to a form dependent on glycogen synthase kinase-3 and Mg-ATP for activity by incubation with inhibitor-2. Digestion with cyanogen bromide or Staphylococcus aureus proteinase followed by SDS gel electrophoresis showed a very similar pattern of cleavage products for all three forms. The Mr-37 000 and Mr-34 000 species were converted to the Mr-33 000 form by incubation with chymotrypsin. It is concluded that the Mr-33 000 and Mr-34 000 forms are derived from the Mr-37 000 component by limited proteolysis. Conversion of the Mr-37 000 to the Mr-33 000 form was accompanied by a two-fold increase in activity, indicating that an Mr-4000 fragment at one end of the polypeptide is an inhibitory domain that decreases enzyme activity. The catalytic subunit of protein phosphatase 2A from rabbit skeletal muscle had an Mr of 36 000 determined by SDS gel electrophoresis and its specific activity (3 kU/mg) was much lower than that of the Mr-37 000 (15-20 kU/mg) or Mr-33/34 000 (40-50 kU/mg) forms of protein phosphatase-1. It dephosphorylated the alpha-subunit of phosphorylase kinase 4-5-fold faster than the beta-subunit, was unaffected by inhibitor-1 or inhibitor-2, and preincubation with the latter protein did not result in the production of a glycogen synthase kinase-3 and Mg-ATP-dependent form of the enzyme. Digestion with chymotrypsin did not alter the electrophoretic mobility of protein phosphatase 2A under conditions that caused quantitative conversion of the Mr-37 000 form of protein phosphatase-1 to the Mr-33 000 species. Digestion with cyanogen bromide or S. aureus proteinase, followed by SDS gel electrophoresis, showed a quite different pattern of cleavage products to those observed with protein phosphatase 1. Antibody to protein phosphatase-2A raised in sheep did not cross-react with any of the forms of protein phosphatase-1, as judged by immunoelectrophoretic and immunotitration experiments. It is concluded that protein phosphatase-1 and protein phosphatase-2A are distinct gene products.

Rat liver fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase appears to be unique in that it extends 24-26 residues beyond the COOH-terminal amino acid of other mammalian fructose 1,6-bisphosphatases and this extension contains phosphorylation sites. Using as a frame of reference the 335-residue sequence of pig kidney fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase (Marcus, F., Edelstein, I., Reardon, I., and Heinrikson, R. L. (1982) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 79, 7161-7165), the rat liver enzyme would extend to residue 361. Limited proteolysis in the COOH-terminal region of the molecule with chymotrypsin, trypsin, or both sequentially, led us to establish that the phosphorylation sites are located at Ser residues 341 and 356. The in vitro phosphorylation of purified rat liver fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase by the catalytic subunit of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase results in modification at both residues, although the major site of phosphorylation (61%) is at Ser-341. In contrast, rat liver fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase purified from animals that had been injected with [32P] phosphate contains most of the label (81%) at Ser-356.

Friend murine erythroleukemia cells (MEL cells) contain a cAMP-independent protein kinase which phosphorylates the 100,000-Da catalytic subunit of the (Na,K)-ATPase both in living cells and in the purified plasma membrane (Yeh, L.-A., Ling, L., English, L., and Cantley, L. (1983) J. Biol. Chem. 258, 6567-6574). We have taken advantage of the selective phosphorylation of the 100,000-Da subunit in purified plasma membranes and the similarity between the proteolysis patterns of the MEL cell and dog kidney (Na,K)-ATPase to map the site of kinase phosphorylation on the MEL cell enzyme. The chymotryptic and tryptic cleavage sites of the dog kidney (Na,K)-ATPase have previously been located (Castro, J., and Farley, R. A. (1979) J. Biol. Chem. 254, 2221-2228). The 100,000-Da catalytic subunits of the dog kidney and MEL cell enzymes were specifically labeled at the active site aspartate residue by incubation with (32P)orthophosphate in the presence of Mg2+ and ouabain. Digestion of these two enzymes with chymotrypsin or trypsin revealed similar active site aspartate containing proteolytic fragments indicating a similar structure for the two enzymes. Chymotryptic digestions of MEL cell (Na,K)-ATPase labeled in vitro with [gamma-32P]ATP localize the region of kinase phosphorylation to within a 35,000-Da peptide derived from the middle of the 100,000-Da subunit. Tryptic digestion of the MEL cell plasma membranes degraded the 100,000-Da subunit to an NH2-terminal 43,000-Da peptide which contained the active site aspartate but which did not contain the kinase-labeled region. These results further locate the region of kinase phosphorylation to the COOH-terminal half of the 35,000-Da chymotryptic peptide. This location places the site of phosphorylation between the active site aspartate residue which accepts the phosphate of ATP during turnover and an ATP-binding site which has previously been located by labeling with fluorescein 5'-isothiocyanate (Carilli, C. T., Farley, R. A., Perlman, D. M., and Cantley, L. C. (1982) J. Biol. Chem. 257, 5601-5606). Phosphorylation of the (Na,K)-ATPase in this region may serve to regulate the activity of this enzyme.

Methods for mapping endpoints of partial proteolysis fragments from regulatory subunit of type I cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase are described with a view to using such data for fine-structure analysis of mutations and/or modifications affecting the protein's electrostatic charge. Peptides generated from [35S]methionine-labeled regulatory subunit were separated by high-resolution two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. Sites of papain cleavage in denatured regulatory subunit were deduced from the kinetics of the appearance, molecular weights, and relative isoelectric points of the fragments produced. These sites and sites of chymotrypsin digestion in the native protein were confirmed by studying peptide overlaps. Carboxy-terminal peptides were identified both by overlaps with cyclic AMP-binding chymotryptic fragments and by their preferential labeling during polysome runoff mediated by pactamycin, an inhibitor of protein initiation. Since peptides containing modifications or mutations that alter protein charge can be identified by shifts in first-dimension isoelectric focusing gel positions, knowledge of fragment endpoints will permit rapid mapping of sites of such alterations by two-dimensional gel analysis of partial proteolytic digests. Such a mapping procedure is inexpensive, can be applied to partially purified proteins or to proteins eluted from polyacrylamide gels, requires only nanogram amounts of the protein of interest, and does not require sequence data to determine relative positions of peptides. Therefore, it provides an attractive alternative to more classical peptide analysis for studying point mutations in cellular proteins of low abundance.

A cyclic nucleotide-independent protein kinase, protease-activated kinase II, which incorporates up to four phosphates into 40 S ribosomal protein S6, has been purified from the postribosomal supernatant of rabbit reticulocytes. Protease-activated kinase II was purified as an inactive proenzyme by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, phosphocellulose, Sephadex G-150, and hydroxylapatite. The enzyme was activated in vitro by limited digestion with trypsin or chymotrypsin. No other mode of activation for protease-activated kinase II in vitro was identified. The proenzyme had a molecular weight of 80,000 as measured by gel filtration; following tryptic digestion, the molecular weight of the activated protein kinase was 45,000-55,000. Protease-activated kinase II required Mg2+ for activity but was inhibited by other divalent cations, monovalent cations, and fluoride ion. ATP was the phosphoryl donor in the phosphorylation reaction; GTP had no effect. In vitro, multiple phosphorylation of S6 was observed with some phosphate incorporated into S10. Phosphorylation of S6 by protease-activated kinase II has been shown to be stimulated in serum-starved 3T3-L1 cells by insulin (Perisic, O., and Traugh, J. A. (1983) J. Biol. Chem. 258, 9589-9592) and in reticulocytes by altering the pH of the incubation medium (Perisic, O., and Traugh, J. A. (1983) J. Biol. Chem. 258, 13998-14002.

Some properties of the protein kinase activity associated with neurofilaments isolated from the brain stem and spinal cord of rats have been investigated. The activity had an apparent Km for ATP of 20 microM, a pH optimum of 8.0 and phosphorylated both serine and threonine residues in neurofilament proteins. Cyclic AMP had no effect on the in vitro reaction and casein was a preferred exogenous substrate in comparison to histone. Phosphopeptide mapping of the 145 kDa subunit from neurofilaments phosphorylated in the presence and absence of microtubule proteins indicated that the neurofilament-associated activity was distinct from the microtubule-associated protein kinase. Limited proteolysis of neurofilaments with chymotrypsin indicated that the enzyme activity was not associated with a domain of the 200 kDa subunit which may form the side-arm projections on neurofilaments.

By quantitative phosphorus determination on the single chains of human fibrinogen it is demonstrated that the covalently bound phosphorus of adult and fetal fibrinogen is exclusively located in the A alpha chain. The A alpha-chain of fetal fibrinogen contains about twice as much phosphorus as the adult A alpha-chain in the well known position of Ser 3 of fibrino-peptide A as well as in a hitherto unknown second position on the A alpha-chain. By consecutive cleavage of the A alpha-chains of fetal and adult fibrinogen with cyanogen bromide, trypsin, and chymotrypsin, separation of the resulting peptide mixtures and analysis for phosphorylated amino acids, this second phosphorylation site could be traced to Ser 345 of the A alpha-chain. There is only one sequence homology between the two now known in vivo phosphorylation sites of human fibrinogen, namely that the second amino acid to the carboxyl side of the phosphorylated Ser is Glu. The sequence specificity of the up to now unidentified protein kinase phosphorylating fibrinogen allows it to be classified as a member of the group of type-2 casein kinases or casein kinases TS.
