We found a novel 81-kDa acidic protein (ACAMP-81) in the bovine brain membrane fraction, which bound to calmodulin in a Ca(2+)-dependent manner. The present study reveals physicochemical properties and phosphorylation of this protein with various protein kinases in vitro. The Stokes radius and sedimentation coefficient were calculated to be 52 A and 2.05 S, respectively, suggesting that the structure of ACAMP-81 is highly elongated. Purified Ca2+/phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase C), cAMP-dependent protein kinase, and Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (Ca2+/CaM kinase II) catalyzed the incorporation of 1.46, 0.72, and 0.44 mol of phosphate/mol of ACAMP-81, respectively. The amino acid residues of ACAMP-81 phosphorylated by either protein kinase C or cAMP-dependent protein kinase were almost exclusively on serine. Sequential phosphorylation of ACAMP-81 by cAMP-dependent protein kinase and protein kinase C resulted in the additional incorporation of 1.15 mol of [32P]phosphate into ACAMP-81. Comparison of phosphopeptide maps of ACAMP-81 phosphorylated by each kinase revealed that there are two classes of phosphorylatable polypeptide, one is phosphorylatable by both protein kinases which contained two polypeptides and the others are specific sites for protein kinase C.

The regulation of the plasma membrane Ca2+ pump by hormones via phosphorylation in intact cells has not been clearly established. We now present evidence that the Ca2+ pump is phosphorylated on both serine and threonine residues in unstimulated and stimulated cultured rat aortic endothelial cells. Among the stimuli tested, the protein kinase C activator phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) was most potent and increased the level of phosphorylation threefold, while the cAMP-dependent protein kinase activator 8-(4-chlorophenylthio)-cAMP (CPT-cAMP) stimulated the phosphorylation 1.6-fold. Two-dimensional tryptic phosphopeptide maps of the Ca2+ pump from unstimulated and CPT-cAMP-stimulated cells have identical patterns (five phosphopeptides) while PMA-stimulated cells have three additional phosphopeptides. Isoproterenol-, ATP-, angiotensin II-, and bradykinin-stimulated cells also have increased levels of Ca2+ pump phosphorylation. Stimuli-induced phosphorylation of the Ca2+ pump was rapid (5-10 min) and was concomitant with stimulated calcium efflux from the same cells. This is the first direct evidence that the plasma membrane Ca2+ pump in intact cells is regulated by various hormones or agonists via cAMP-dependent protein kinase or protein kinase C phosphorylation.

The insulin-like growth factor-binding protein IGF-BP1 is a major secretory protein of human endometrial stromal cells decidualized in culture. Anion exchange chromatography and nondenaturing gel electrophoresis showed IGF-BP1 to exist in five electrophoretically and chromatographically distinct isoforms. IGF-BP1 variants migrated as a quintet on nondenaturing polyacrylamide gels and as a single band (28 kDa) on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels. Alkaline phosphatase treatment reduced the IGF-BP1 variants to a single band. Cells incubated with [32P]orthophosphate for 12 h secreted four 32P-labeled IGF-BP1 phosphovariants, and their migration coincided with those bands that were eliminated by alkaline phosphatase treatment. In cells treated with medroxyprogesterone acetate and relaxin, the concentration of phosphorylated IGF-BP1 was increased dramatically as compared with controls. All the phosphovariants were confirmed to be IGF-BP1 by their ability to be supershifted on nondenaturing polyacrylamide gels after binding a monoclonal antibody to IGF-BP1. Thin layer electrophoresis of IGF-BP1 acid hydrolysates showed IGF-BP1 to be phosphorylated exclusively on serine. Non-phosphorylated IGF-BP1 was phosphorylated by the catalytic subunit of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase and casein kinase II in vitro. This suggests that IGF-BP1 may be a substrate of multiple protein kinases in vivo.

The human recombinant CRE-BP1 was phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase and protein kinase C, in vitro. These two protein kinases modified distinct serine residues of CRE-BP1. Ser-62 downstream of a putative metal finger structure of CRE-BP1 was the phosphorylation site by cAMP-dependent protein kinase, whereas two serine residues, Ser-340 and Ser-367, located in the basic region of this protein were the major protein kinase C phosphorylation sites. It seems possible that transcriptional and DNA-binding activities of CRE-BP1 are regulated by phosphorylation with these protein kinases.

Endogenous phosphorylation of the crude membrane fraction of cultured 3Y1 fibroblast cells was enhanced by the addition of Ca2+/calmodulin. Both Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase activity and its substrate were present in a cytoskeletal fraction, obtained as a pellet after washing of the membrane fraction with 2 mM EGTA, 0.6 M NaCl, and 1% Triton X-100. The phosphorylatable protein in the Triton X-insoluble fraction was identified by immunoblotting as vimentin. This endogenous phosphorylation induced by calmodulin was inhibited by the addition of KN-62, a specific Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II inhibitor, in a dose-dependent manner. However, phosphorylation of the 59 kDa protein (vimentin) in this fraction was not stimulated by adding both phosphatidyl serine and cAMP, thereby suggesting the absence of protein kinase C or of cAMP-dependent protein kinase in this fraction. The protein kinase associated with the Triton X-insoluble fraction phosphorylated the Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II-specific site of synapsin I from the bovine cortex. Two-dimensional phosphopeptide maps of vimentin indicated that a major phosphopeptide phosphorylated by the endogenous calmodulin-dependent kinase also appears to be the same as a major phosphopeptide phosphorylated by the exogenous Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II. Our results suggest that cytoskeleton-associated Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II regulates dynamic cellular functions through the phosphorylation of cytoskeletal elements in non-neural cells.

Chicken cardiac C-protein was readily phosphorylated by purified calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaM-kinase II). Maximum incorporation was about 4 mol of 32P/mol of C-protein subunit. Peptide mapping indicated that some of the sites phosphorylated by CaM-kinase II were located on the same phosphopeptides obtained when C-protein was phosphorylated by the cAMP-dependent protein kinase (peptides T1, T2, and T3). There was a fourth peptide (T3a) which was unique to CaM-kinase II phosphorylation. 32P-Amino acid analysis showed that essentially all of the 32P of peptides T1, T2, and T3a was in phosphoserine. cAMP-dependent protein kinase incorporated 32P only into threonine of peptide T3. Threonine was the preferred site of phosphorylation by CaM-kinase II, but there was significant phosphorylation of a serine in peptide T3. Partially purified C-protein preparations contained an associated calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase. Peptide maps obtained from C-protein phosphorylated by the endogenous kinase were similar to those obtained from C-protein phosphorylated by CaM-kinase II. However, the ratio of phosphothreonine to phosphoserine in peptide T3 was lower. This was due to a contaminating phosphatase in the partially purified C-protein which preferentially dephosphorylated the phosphothreonine of peptide T3. It is suggested that the calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase associated with C-protein is similar or identical to CaM-kinase II and that CaM-kinase II may play a role in the phosphorylation of C-protein in the heart.

The alpha subunit of eukaryotic protein synthesis initiation factor (eIF-2 alpha) is phosphorylated at a single serine residue (Ser51) by two distinct and well-characterized protein kinase, the haem-controlled repressor (HCR) and the double-stranded RNA-activated inhibitor (dsI). The sequence adjacent to Ser51 is rich in basic residues (Ser51-Arg-Arg-Arg-Ile-Arg) suggesting that they may be important in the substrate specificity of the two kinases, as is the case for several other protein kinases. A number of proteins and synthetic peptides containing clusters of basic residues were tested as substrates for HCR and dsI. Both kinases were able to phosphorylate histones and protamines ar multiple sites as judged by two-dimensional mapping of the tryptic phosphopeptides. These data also showed that the specificities of the two kinases were different from one another and from the specificities of two other protein kinases which recognise basic residues, cAMP-dependent protein kinase and protein kinase C. In histones, HCR phosphorylated only serine residues while dsI phosphorylated serine and threonine. Based on phosphoamino acid analyses and gel filtration of tryptic fragments, dsI was capable of phosphorylating both 'sites' in clupeine Y1 and salmine A1, whereas HCR acted only on the N-terminal cluster of serines in these protamines. The specificities of HCR and dsI were further studied using synthetic peptides with differing configurations of basic residues. Both kinases phosphorylated peptides containing C-terminal clusters of arginines on the 'target' serine residue, provided that they were present at positions +3 and/or +4 relative to Ser51. However, peptides containing only N-terminal basic residues were poor and very poor substrates for dsI and HCR, respectively. These findings are consistent with the disposition of basic residues near the phosphorylation site in eIF-2 alpha and show that the specificities of HCR and dsI differ from other protein kinases whose specificities have been studied.

At the initial phase of cell differentiation in mouse neuroblastoma (N18) induced by dibutyrylcyclic AMP (dbcAMP), an additional site of histone H1 was extensively phosphorylated. Forskolin and various phosphodiesterase inhibitors also induced both cell differentiation and H1 phosphorylation at the identical site. The phosphorylation preferentially occurred in a single H1 subtype (H1c) among the five (H1a-e) fractionated by high performance liquid chromatography. The three H1 subtypes of N18 (H1c, H1d, and H1e) were phosphorylated in vitro, and their amino acid sequences of the phosphopeptides were identical to the known sequence of rabbit H1 peptides containing a serine 37 residue. However, the amount of H1a and H1b phosphorylations was negligible. The serine residue was replaced by threonine residue in H1a, and H1b did not have a homologous peptide. The tryptic phosphopeptides of H1 in N18 were identical to that in rat liver H1 induced by glucagon (Langan, T.A. (1969) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 64, 1276-1283). The results indicate that 1) the response of H1 subtypes to cAMP-dependent protein kinase in vivo and in vitro is H1 subtype-specific, and 2) the H1c phosphorylation may play an important role in the restrictive area of chromatin in both cell differentiation and hormonal stimulation mediated by cAMP.

While a cAMP-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase A) has been suggested to phosphorylate epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor in vitro, both intrinsic and EGF- or potent phorbol tumor promoter-induced phosphorylation of EGF receptor were found to be depressed in human epidermoid carcinoma A431 cells by prior incubation of the cells with various protein kinase A activators (e.g. cholera toxin, forskolin, cAMP analogues, or a combination of prostaglandin E1 and 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine). Protein kinase A activators did not change significantly either the number of EGF receptors or their affinity for EGF. The tryptic phosphopeptide map of EGF receptors from cells treated with cholera toxin alone or cholera toxin followed by EGF revealed unique peptides whose serine phosphorylation was preferentially depressed. However, the catalytic subunit of protein kinase A phosphorylated no threonine and little serine in the EGF receptors in the plasma membranes of isolated A431 cells in vitro, while serine residues in an unidentified 170-kDa membrane protein(s) other than EGF receptor were heavily phosphorylated. Pretreatment of the cells with forskolin blocked 1,2-diacylglycerol induction by EGF; growth inhibition by nanomolar levels of EGF could be partially restored by the presence of forskolin. These results indicate that an increase in intracellular cAMP modulates the EGF receptor signal transduction system by reducing EGF-induced production of diacylglycerol without direct phosphorylation of EGF receptors by protein kinase A in A431 cells.

Forskolin-pretreatment of A431 cells reduced both intrinsic and epidermal growth factor (EGF)-induced EGF receptor phosphorylation, however, phosphorylation of phospholipase C-gamma (PLC-gamma) was stimulated under the same conditions. No significant difference was detected in the amount of phosphotyrosine of PLC-gamma between two cultures with or without forskolin treatment followed by EGF. On the other hand, phosphorylation of a 47 kDa protein (P47) which cross-reacted with an anti-PLC-gamma monoclonal antibody, was stimulated by both forskolin and EGF. Phosphorylation was exclusively on serine residues in this case. These results indicate that both PLC-gamma and P47 are phosphorylated by a cAMP-dependent protein kinase and the EGF-stimulated serine kinase, and suggest that serine phosphorylation of PLC-gamma has no effect on ligand-dependent coupling with the EGF receptor.
