Purified phospholamban isolated from canine cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles was subjected to proteolysis and peptide mapping to localize the different sites of phosphorylation on the protein and to gain further information on its subunit structure. Five different proteases (trypsin, papain, chymotrypsin, elastase, and Pronase) degraded the oligomeric 27-kDa phosphoprotein into a major 21-22-kDa protease-resistant fragment. No 32P was retained by this protease-resistant fragment, regardless of whether phospholamban had been phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase, Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase, or protein kinase C. Phosphoamino acid analysis and thin-layer electrophoresis of liberated phosphopeptides revealed that 1 threonine and 2 serine residues were phosphorylated in phospholamban and that 1 of these serine residues and the threonine residue were in close proximity. Only serine was phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase, whereas Ca2+-calmodulin-dependent protein kinase phosphorylated exclusively threonine. The results demonstrate that phospholamban has a large protease-resistant domain and a smaller protease-sensitive domain, the latter of which contains all of the sites of phosphorylation. The 21-22-kDa protease-resistant domain, although devoid of incorporated 32P, was completely dissociated into identical lower molecular weight subunits by boiling in sodium dodecyl sulfate, suggesting that this region of the molecule promotes the relatively strong interactions that hold the subunits together. The data presented lend further support for a model of phospholamban structure in which several identical low molecular weight subunits are noncovalently bound to one another, each containing one site of phosphorylation for cAMP-dependent protein kinase and another site of phosphorylation for Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase.

Rat liver glycogen synthase was phosphorylated by purified protein kinase C in a Ca2+- and phospholipid-dependent fashion to 1-1.4 mol PO4/subunit. Analysis of the 32P-labeled tryptic peptides derived from the phosphorylated synthase by isoelectric focusing and two-dimensional peptide mapping revealed the presence of a major radioactive peptide. The sites in liver synthase phosphorylated by protein kinase C appears to be different from those phosphorylated by other kinases. Prior phosphorylation of the synthase by protein kinase C has no significant effect on the subsequent phosphorylation by glycogen synthase (casein) kinase-1 or kinase Fa, but prevents the synthase from further phosphorylation by cAMP-dependent protein kinase, Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase, phosphorylase kinase, or casein kinase-2. Additive phosphorylation of liver glycogen synthase can be observed by the combination of protein kinase C with the former set of kinases but not with the latter. Phosphorylation of liver synthase by protein kinase C alone did not cause an inactivation nor did the combination of this kinase with glycogen synthase (casein) kinase-1 or kinase Fa produce a synergistic effect on the inactivation of the synthase. Based on these findings we conclude that the phorbol ester-induced inactivation of glycogen synthase previously observed in hepatocytes cannot be accounted for entirely by the activation of protein kinase C.

A cDNA clone for a type II regulatory (R) subunit of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase (ATP:protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37) was isolated from a rat skeletal muscle library using a specific 47-base oligonucleotide probe. The rat cDNA was 1.2 kilobases (kb) in length and contained an open reading frame of 1.113 kb representing 92% of the coding region of the molecule. Nick-translated rat cDNA was then used to isolate a mouse RII cDNA clone from a brain library that contained an open reading frame of 1.143 kb. Because both cDNAs lacked complete coding sequences, the remainder of the RII coding region was obtained from a 15-kb mouse genomic clone. The mouse RII coding region contains 1.2 kb corresponding to a 400-amino acid protein of 51.141 kDa. The mouse cDNA hybridizes to two mRNA species, a 2.4-kb form that was only observed in testis and a 6.0-kb form found in a wide range of tissues, including testis.

Changes in glycolytic flux have been observed in liver under conditions where effects of cAMP seem unlikely. We have, therefore, studied the phosphorylation of four enzymes involved in the regulation of glycolysis and gluconeogenesis (6-phosphofructo-1-kinase from rat liver and rabbit muscle; pyruvate kinase, 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase and fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase from rat liver) by defined concentrations of two cAMP-independent protein kinases: Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase and Ca2+/phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase C). The results were compared with those obtained with the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase. The following results were obtained. 1. Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase phosphorylates 6-phosphofructo-1-kinase and L-type pyruvate kinase at a slightly lower rate as compared to cAMP-dependent protein kinase. 2. 6-Phosphofructo-1-kinase is phosphorylated by the two kinases at a single identical position. There is no additive phosphorylation. The final stoichiometry is 2 mol phosphate/mol tetramer. The same holds for L-type pyruvate kinase except that the stoichiometry with either kinase or both kinases together is 4 mol phosphate/mol tetramer. 3. Rabbit muscle 6-phosphofructo-1-kinase is phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase but not by Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase. 4. Fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase from rat but not from rabbit liver is phosphorylated at the same position but at a markedly lower rate by Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase when compared to the phosphorylation by cAMP-dependent protein kinase. 5. 6-Phosphofructo-2-kinase is phosphorylated by Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase only at a negligible rate. 6. Protein kinase C does not seem to be involved in the regulation of the enzymes examined: only 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase became phosphorylated to a significant degree. In contrast to the phosphorylation by cAMP-dependent protein kinase, this phosphorylation is not associated with a change of enzyme activity. This agrees with our observation that the sites of phosphorylation by the two kinases are different. The results indicate that Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase but not protein kinase C could be involved in the regulation of hepatic glycolytic flux under conditions where changes in the activity of cAMP-dependent protein kinase seem unlikely.

The amino acid sequence of the Alzheimer disease amyloid precursor (ADAP) has been deduced from the corresponding cDNA, and hydropathy analysis of the sequence suggests a receptor-like structure with a single transmembrane domain. The putative cytoplasmic domain of ADAP contains potential sites for serine and threonine phosphorylation. In the present study, synthetic peptides derived from this domain were used as model substrates for various purified protein kinases. Protein kinase C rapidly catalyzed the phosphorylation of a peptide corresponding to amino acid residues 645-661 of ADAP [ADAP peptide(645-661)] on Ser-655. Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II phosphorylated ADAP peptide (645-661) on Thr-654 and Ser-655. This peptide was virtually ineffective as a substrate for cAMP-dependent protein kinase, cGMP-dependent protein kinase, casein kinase II, or insulin receptor protein-tyrosine kinase. When a homogenate of rat cerebral cortex was used as the source of protein kinase, phosphorylation of ADAP peptide(645-661) was stimulated by calcium/phosphatidylserine/diolein to a level 4.6-fold above the basal level of phosphorylation, consistent with a prominent stimulation by protein kinase C. Using rat cerebral cortex synaptosomes prelabeled with 32Pi, a 32P-labeled phosphoprotein of approximately equal to 135 kDa was immunoprecipitated by using antisera prepared against ADAP peptide(597-624), consistent with the possibility that the holoform of ADAP in rat brain is a phosphoprotein. Based on analogy with the effect of phosphorylation by protein kinase C of juxtamembrane residues in the cytoplasmic domain of the epidermal growth factor receptor and the interleukin 2 receptor, phosphorylation of ADAP may target it for internalization.

Lamin B was shown to be a major substrate of cellular phosphorylation in the response of lymphocytes to phorbol esters. Lamins A and C, which were not observed in lymphocytes, were also substrates of phorbol-stimulated phosphorylation in those cell types that express them. Lamin B phosphopeptides labeled with 32P in intact cells treated with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate were compared to those produced by in vitro phosphorylation with protein kinase M, cAMP-dependent protein kinase, and Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II. The phosphopeptides labeled by in vivo stimulation with phorbol esters are very similar to those phosphorylated in vitro by protein kinase M, a catalytic domain of protein kinase C. Phorbol treatment of interphase cells significantly reduces the amount of detergent-insoluble lamin B, suggesting that phosphorylation of lamin may alter the architecture of the nuclear lamina. In addition, we have shown that treatment of a B-cell line with antibodies to IgM induces a modest increase in lamin B phosphorylation. These results strongly suggest that ligands that are known to activate protein kinase C at the cell surface or in the cytosol also lead to the activation of a nuclear kinase activity with a protein kinase C-type specificity.

The activation of phosphorylase kinase (EC 2.7.1.38; ATP:phosphorylase b phosphotransferase) by the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (EC 2.7.1.37; ATP:protein phosphotransferase) is inhibited by calmodulin. The mechanism of that inhibition has been studied by kinetic measurements of the interactions of the three proteins. The binding constant for calmodulin with phosphorylase kinase was found to be 90 nM when measured by fluorescence polarization spectroscopy. Glycerol gradient centrifugation studies indicated that 1 mol of calmodulin was bound to each phosphorylase kinase. Phosphorylation of the phosphorylase kinase did not reduce the amount of calmodulin bound. Kinetic studies of the activity of the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase on phosphorylase kinase as a function of phosphorylase kinase and calmodulin concentrations were performed. The results of those studies were compared with mathematical models of four different modes of inhibition: competitive, noncompetitive, substrate depletion, and inhibition by a complex between phosphorylase kinase and calmodulin. The data conform best to the model in which the inhibitory species is a complex of phosphorylase kinase and calmodulin. The complex apparently competes with the substrate, phosphorylase kinase, which does not have exogenous calmodulin bound to it. In contrast, the phosphorylation of the synthetic phosphate acceptor peptide, Kemptide, is not inhibited by calmodulin.

cDNA clones encoding the regulatory subunit of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase (ATP:protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37) from Dictyostelium discoideum were isolated by immunoscreening of a cDNA library constructed in the expression vector lambda gt11. High-affinity cAMP-binding activity was detected in extracts from bacteria lysogenized with these clones. Nucleotide sequence analysis of three overlapping clones allowed the determination of a 1195-base-pair cDNA sequence coding for the entire regulatory subunit and containing nontranslated 5' and 3' sequences. The open reading frame codes for a protein of 327 amino acids, with molecular weight 36,794. The regulatory subunit from Dictyostelium shares a high degree of homology with its mammalian counterparts, but is lacking the NH2-terminal domain required for the association of regulatory subunits into dimers in other eukaryotes. On the basis of the comparison of the regulatory subunits from Dictyostelium, yeast, and bovine tissues, a model for the evolution of these proteins is proposed.

We have used oligonucleotide probes, based on a portion of the p60v-src autophosphorylation sequence, Glu-Asp-Asn-Glu-Tyr-Thr, to identify and characterize a cDNA from the human T-leukemia cell line, JURKAT. The JURKAT cDNA (designated ptk-JURKAT) was homologous to but distinct from the src, yes and fgr oncogenes, which encode protein-tyrosine kinases (ATP:protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37). The ptk-JURKAT cDNA hybridized with a 2.2 kb RNA transcript from JURKAT cells and the human T-cell lymphoma line, MOLT-4, but failed to identify any transcript in two human B-cell lymphoma lines or a human erythroid-myeloid leukemia line, K562. Recently the nucleotide sequence has been established for the murine lymphocyte protein tyrosine kinase, p56LSTRA. The ptk-JURKAT cDNA appears to encode the human homolog of p56LSTRA.

The phosphorylation state of six cytoplasmic proteins is increased following treatment of isolated rat hepatocytes with hormones that elevate free intracellular Ca2+ levels (Garrison, J. C. and Wagner, J. D. (1982) J. Biol. Chem. 257, 13135-13143). Tryptic 32P-phosphopeptide maps of two of the substrates, pyruvate kinase and a 49,000-dalton protein, the major 32P-labeled protein in hepatocytes, were prepared following stimulation of cells with vasopressin, a Ca2+-linked hormone. Peptide maps of the 49,000-dalton protein phosphorylated in vitro with the recently identified multifunctional Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase contained phosphopeptides identical to those observed in the intact cell, suggesting that this kinase is activated in response to Ca2+-mobilizing hormones. Similar in vitro phosphorylation experiments with pyruvate kinase suggested that the Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase can phosphorylate not only the serine residues observed following vasopressin stimulation of the intact cell but also additional threonine residues. Both pyruvate kinase and the 49,000-dalton protein are also phosphorylated in the hepatocyte in response to glucagon and in vitro by the cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Both vasopressin and glucagon appear to stimulate the phosphorylation of identical serine residues in pyruvate kinase but only vasopressin enhances the phosphorylation of certain sites in the 49,000-dalton protein. Comparison of the tryptic phosphopeptide maps of these substrates phosphorylated in vitro with either the Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase or the cAMP-dependent protein kinase suggests that the Ca2+-dependent kinase can phosphorylate unique sites in both substrates. It appears to share specificity at other sites with the cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Overall, the results suggest that the multifunctional Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase plays an important role in the response of the hepatocyte to a Ca2+ signal.
