Protein kinase (ATP:protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37) and cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate binding activities have been identified in zoospore extracts of the water mold Blastocladiella emersonii. More than 75% of these activities is found in the soluble fraction. Soluble protein kinase activity is resolved in three peaks(I, II and III) by DEAE-cellulose chromatography. Peak I is casein dependent and insensitive to cyclic AMP. Peak II is histone dependent and cyclic AMP independent; this enzyme is inhibited by the heat-stable inhibitor from bovine muscle. Peak III utilizes histone as substrate and is activated by cyclic AMP.

An adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate-dependent protein kinase (ATP:protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37) has been isolated from the human erythrocyte memebrane and the phosphotransferase activity exhibited by this enzyme has been purified 800-fold. In concentrated solutions, the membrane-derived protein kinase undergoes aggregation with a concomitant loss in observed phosphotransferase activity. This loss of activity can be restored by means of inducing deaggregation. The phosphotransferase activity of the protein kinase is virtually obliterated in the presence of high (300 mM) concentrations of sodium chloride. This effect is also reversible. The pH optimum for the phosphotransferase reaction that is catalyzed by the membrane-derived protein kinase is approximately 8. Micromolar concentrations of cAMP are optimal with respect to promoting the phosphotransferase reaction. Initial velocity and product inhibition studies were conducted on the cAMP-independent protein kinase derived from the cAMP-dependent enzyme. These studies indicate that the phosphotransferase reaction proceeds by a sequential kinetic mechanism.

Incubation of simian virus 40 (SV40) tumor (T) antigen-containing immunoprecipitates with [gamma-32P]ATP results in the incorporation of radioactive phosphate into large T antigen. Highly purified preparations of large T antigen from a SV40-transformed cell line, SV80, are able to catalyze the phosphorylation of a known phosphate acceptor, casein. The kinase activity migrates with large T antigen through multiple purification steps. Sedimentation analysis under non-T-antigen-aggregating conditions reveals that kinase activity and the immunoreactive protein comigrate as a 6S structure. The kinase activity of purified preparations of large T antigen can be specifically adsorbed to solid-phase anti-T IgG, and partially purified T antigen from a SV40 tsA transformation is thermolabile in its ability to phosphorylate casein when compared to comparably purified wild-type T antigen. These observations indicate that the SV40 large T antigen is closely associated with protein kinase (ATP:protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37) activity.

The catalytic subunit of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (from rabbit skeletal muscle; ATP:protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37) was found to be irreversibly inactivated by chloromethyl ketone derivatives of lysine and phenylalanine, chemical reagents originally designed for labeling the active sites of the proteolytic enzymes trypsin and chymotrypsin. This inactivation was shown to occur at pH 7.5 and 22 degrees C, conditions under which chemically related alkylating reagents such as chloroacetamide and chloroacetic acid (which do not possess the amino acid side chain) fail to inactivate the enzyme. In the case of the chloromethyl ketone derivative of N alpha-tosyl-L-lysine, the enzyme could be protected by its nucleotide substrate (MgATP), by one of its protein substrates (histone H2b), and by its regulatory subunit which, upon binding, shields the active site of the catalytic subunit. Differential labeling experiments, together with kinetic studies of the rates of modification of the sulfhydryl groups in the enzyme before and after inactivation with the chloromethyl ketone, suggest that the loss of activity is associated with one (kinetically characterized) sulfhydryl group present either at the active site of the enzyme or at a site intimately associated with it. The general implications of these results regarding the interpretation of affinity labeling experiments carried out in complex mixtures of proteins or under in vivo conditions are discussed.

Protein kinase activity (ATP:protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37) has been found associated with the D2 hybrid protein, a highly purified protein of 107,000 daltons specified by the adenovirus-simian virus 40 (SV40) hybrid Ad2(+)D2, which has many properties associated with authentic SV40 T antigen [Tjian, R. & Robbins, A. (1979) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 76, 610-614]. We have now examined some of the biochemical characteristics of the reaction products. Acceptors for the terminal phosphoryl group of [gamma-(32)P]ATP are the purified protein itself and at least four proteins extracted from nuclei of uninfected cells. Purified histones do not serve as substrate for the enzyme. Phosphorylation is markedly reduced by heating the D2 hybrid protein to 50 degrees C for 30 min. The products of phosphorylation are stable to treatment with ethanol/ether, DNase, and RNase, but completely degraded by digestion with Pronase, demonstrating their protein nature. The phosphate bonds are liable to hot alkali and sensitive to digestion with alkaline phosphatase but stable to treatment with hot acid or hydroxylamine. These results provide evidence that (32)P is incorporated into O-phosphoserine or O-phosphothreonine residues of acceptor proteins, indicating that the enzymatic activity is characteristic for protein kinase, and that cell-specified nuclear proteins other than histones may serve as substrates for the enzyme.

Two cyclic nucleotide-independent protein kinases (ATP:protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37) have been purified to homogeneity from rat liver nuclei. While these enzymes have many similar catalytic properties (preference for acid rather than basic proteins), they differ in molecular weight and subunit composition. Protein kinase NII will utilize ATP and GTP as phosphate donors while protein kinase NI will only effectively use ATP. Both enzymes reveal an unusual activation by Fe2+.

An increase of cAMP/cGMP concentration ratio is the earliest stimulus-coupled biochemical change that has been measured in the adrenal medulla during the trans-synaptic induction of tyrosine 3-monooxygenase [EC 1.14.16.2; L-tyrosine, tetrahydropteridine:oxygen oxidoreductase (3-hydroxylating)]. In adrenal medulla of rats receiving reserpine alone (16 mumol/kg intraperitoneally) or reserpine and propranolol (40 mumol/kg intraperitoneally 30 min before reserpine), or exposed to 4 degrees for 4 hr, the extent and duration of the increase of the cAMP/cGMP concentration ratio exceeds the critical value that is required to activate the protein kinases (EC 2.7.1.37; ATP:protein phosphotransferase). Gel filtration experiments indicate that during this activation, the catalytic subunit of the protein kinase (low-molecular-weight enzyme) is released from the holoenzyme. The activation of protein kinase lasts longer than the increase in the cAMP/cGMP concentration ratio and appears to be an obligatory early event that mediates the increase of tyrosine monooxygenase synthesis. The trans-synaptic induction of the monooxygenase in adrenal medulla appears to be due to an increased synthesis of the enzyme;the rate for monooxygenase degradation is proportional to the number of enzyme molecules that are present at various stages of the induction process.

The catalytic subunit of cyclic 3':5'-AMP-dependent protein kinase (ATP:protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37) inhibits translation in Artemia salina and wheat germ extracts. It acts, as in reticulocyte lysates [Datta, A., de Haro, C., Sierra, J. M. & Ochoa, S. (1977) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 74, 1463-1467] by catalyzing the conversion of a proinhibitor to an inhibitor of polypeptide chain initiation. Addition of ATP and either cyclic AMP or catalytic subunit promotes the proinhibitor-inhibitor conversion in crude proinhibitor preparations from A. salina embryos. The effect of cyclic AMP is due to stimulation of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, present in such preparations, and is inhibited by hemin. In similar preparations from wheat germ, addition of ATP and catalytic subunit promoted proinhibitor-inhibitor conversion, but addition of ATP and cyclic AMP has little or no effect. As assayed with histone as substrate, wheat germ preparations exhibit a protein kinase activity that is not stimulated by the addition of cyclic AMP or cyclic GMP. Our results suggest that a translational control system, similar to that existing in rabbit reticulocytes and other mammalian cells, is present in organisms evolutionarily far removed from mammals.

Incubation of reticulocyte lysates or isolated crude ribosomes with low levels of double-stranded RNA (0.1-10 ng/ml) induces the formation of an inhibitor of protein synthesis initiation similar to that observed in heme deficiency. The inhibitor is associated with a cyclic AMP-independent protein kinase activity (ATP:protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37) that phosphorylates the small polypeptide (38,000 daltons) of the eukaryotic initiation factor eIF-2. Activation of the inhibitor requires ATP in addition to double-stranded RNA and is accompanied by the phosphorylation of a 67,000-dalton polypeptide of unknown function. The inhibitor remains associated with the ribosomes during high-speed sedimentation. Once formed, the ribosome-associated inhibitor phosphorylates eIF-2 and inhibits protein synthesis in the absence of double-stranded RNA. Inhibition is prevented by exogenous eIF-2. The bound inhibitor can be solubilized by extraction with 0.5 M KCl. The soluble inhibitor preparation retains the ability to phosphorylate the small polypeptide of eIF-2 and to inhibit protein synthesis. Untreated crude ribosomes also contain cyclic AMP-independent protein kinase activities that phosphorylate the middle polypeptide (49,000 daltons) of eIF-2 and several polypeptide subunits of eIF-3 (160,000, 125,000, and 65,000 daltons); these kinase activities are not affected by double-stranded RNA and do not inhibit protein synthesis.

The cell-free extract from wheat germ contains an inhibitor interfering with translation of a natural template (BMV RNA). The inhibitor affects neither the translation of poly(U) nor the aminoacylation of tRNA. It exhibits the activity of protein kinase (ATP:protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37). The inhibitor is found in lipoprotein aggregates which can be separated from ribosomes on Sepharose 2B column. Ribosomes purified on the Sepharose are several times more active in translation of BMV RNA than those isolated by conventional methods.
