The adenosine 3",5"-monophosphate (cAMP)-dependent ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3) activity of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (ATP:protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37) from bovine heart is characterized. That the ATPase activity is intimately associated with the catalytic subunit of the enzyme is suggested by the following: (i) the similar dependences of ATPase and protein kinase activities on cAMP; (ii) the dissociation of ATPase activity from the holoenzyme on addition of cAMP and its co-elution with the catalytic subunit on gel filtration chromatography; (iii) the similarity of the relative effectiveness of divalent metal ions in ATPase and protein kinase catalysis; and (iv) the correspondence of kinetically determined Km(MgATP) and Ki(MgADP) values with thermodynamic dissociation constants determined by equilibrium dialysis. The hydrolysis of ATP is stimulated 10- to 20-fold by cAMP in the holoenzyme. The molar specific activity of the catalytic subunit ATPase is approximately 0.7 min-1 with Km(MgATP) = 5 muM. MgADP is a competitive inhibitor of the reaction with a Ki value of approximately muM. The order of the relative effectiveness of metal ions for both ATPase and peptide kinase activities is Mg2+ greater than Mn2+ greater than Ca2+. A possible interpretation of these observations is that the role that the metal ion plays is more directly manifested in bond-breaking than in bond-forming.

Sera from certain rabbits bearing Schmidt-Ruppin strain Rous sarcoma virus (RSV)-induced tumors precipitated p60(src) from chicken cells transformed by the homologous virus as well as by other strains [Prague strain RSV, Bryan high-titer strain RSV, and Bratislava 77 strain of avain sarcoma virus (ASV)], the molecular weights (M(r)s) ranging from 60,000 to 64,000. The p60(src) immunoprecipitated from cells transformed by each of these strains incorporated [gamma-(32)P]ATP into the M(r) 53,000 subunit of IgG, though with differing activities. No such protein kinase activity (ATP:protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37) was observed when the following immunoprecipitates were used: from uninfected cells, from untransformed cells infected by Rous-associated virus, or from cells transformed by acute leukosis viruses, avian erythroblastosis virus, or myelocytoma virus 29. The kinase reaction had a pH optimum at pH 5.9 and an apparent K(m) for ATP of 4.9 +/- 2 muM, and was dependent on Mg(2+) (K(b) = 46 +/- 12 mM), for which Ca(2+) was no substitute. The kinase was cyclic AMP independent. In order to test whether the protein kinase reaction is directly catalyzed by p60(src), we compared the in vitro temperature sensitivities of the kinase activities from cells infected by transformation-temperature-sensitive mutant and parental wild-type virus. The first-order rate constant for the inactivation of the kinase from extracts of cells infected by the mutant virus was 2-fold greater than that from cells infected by wild-type virus. This result implicates the protein kinase as an enzymatic activity of the src gene product, the p60(src). Concomitant with the loss of the kinase activity by heat inactivation, p60(src) loses 60-70% of its phosphate content. The kinetics of dephosphorylation exactly parallel those for the inactivation of the kinase activity, suggesting that the p60(src) kinase is itself dependent on phosphorylation for its activity.

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.

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+.

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.

Triiodothyronine (T3) administration to thyroidectomized rats induces a significant increase in the nucleolus-associated protein kinase (ATP:protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37) activity. The general properties of the protein kinase solubilized from liver nucleoli have been investigated. Mg2+ (20 mM) is essential for the reaction and an appropriate concentration of NaCl (100 mM) is required to achieve maximal phosphorylation rates. The optimal pH for casein phosphorylation is 7.6. The kinase phosphorylates casein more efficiently than phosvitin and displays an almost undetectable activity towards histones and protamine. No significant stimulation of the kinase activity by cyclic AMP has been detected. The apparent Km values for casein and ATP are 1.5 mg/ml and 1.5-10(-5) M, respectively, and are not affected by the hormone administration.

The state of phosphorylation of phenylalanine hydroxylase was determined in isolated intact rat hepatocytes. 32P-labeled phenylalanine hydroxylase was immunoisolated from cells loaded with 32Pi or from cell extracts 'back-phosphorylated' with [gamma-32P]ATP by cAMP-dependent protein kinase. The rate of phenylalanine hydroxylase phosphorylation in cells with elevated cAMP was similar to that observed for the isolated enzyme phosphorylated by homogeneous cAMP-dependent protein kinase. The phosphorylation rate in cAMP-stimulated cells was increased up to four times (reaching 0.018 s-1) by the presence of phenylalanine, the phosphate content (mol/mol hydroxylase) increasing to 0.5 from the basal level (0.17) in 50 s. The half maximal effect of phenylalanine was obtained at a physiologically relevant concentration (110 microM). The synthetic phenylalanine hydroxylase cofactor dimethyltetrahydropterin also enhanced the cAMP-stimulated phosphorylation of phenylalanine hydroxylase, presumably by displacing the endogenous cofactor, tetrahydrobiopterin. Phenylalanine was a negative modulator of the phosphorylation of phenylalanine hydroxylase induced by incubating cells with vasopressin or with the phosphatase inhibitor okadaic acid. The same site on the phenylalanine hydroxylase was phosphorylated in response to these two agents as in response to elevated cAMP. The available evidence suggested that not only vasopressin, but also okadaic acid, acted by stimulating the multifunctional Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II or a kinase with closely resembling properties.

Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaM-kinase II) has been purified from hen whole brain. The enzyme was purified 3000-fold using phosphocellulose and calmodulin-Agarose column chromatography. The specific activity was 200 nmol/min/mg protein. Microtubule associated protein-2 (MAP-2) was used as a substrate to assess the activity of the enzyme during purification and for its characterization. CaM-kinase II consisted of alpha and beta/beta' subunits of molecular weights 46,000 and 55,000/52,000, respectively. The ratio of alpha to beta/beta' subunits was 3:1 in the enzyme purified from the whole brain. The enzyme exhibited broad substrate specificity and phosphorylated myelin basic protein, MAP-2, histone II, histone VIII, casein, tubulin, myosin light chains, glycogen synthase, and phosvitin in decreasing order. Phosphorylase b was phosphorylated at a negligible rate. Autophosphorylation of CaM-kinase II for 10 min in the presence of calcium and calmodulin decreased its total activity to 33%, and calcium/calmodulin-independent activity reached 30% after 1 min and then dropped to 14% after 10 min of autophosphorylation. The Km value of ATP was 19 +/- 1.3 microM, and the K0.5 values of calcium and calmodulin were 4.4 +/- 0.5 and 3.0 +/- 0.5 microM, respectively. The latter were determined using myelin basic protein as the substrate. CaM-kinase II exhibited great differences in the calmodulin requirement for phosphorylation of MAP-2, histone II and myelin basic protein. MAP-2 required the least amount of calmodulin for its phosphorylation. Autophosphorylation of CaM-kinase II resulted in decreased mobility of the alpha-subunit but apparently not of the beta/beta' subunits in sodium dodecyl/sulfate-polyacrylamide gel. Antiserum was raised against the CaM-kinase II alpha subunit and used for testing cross-reactivity of hen brain enzyme with that of other species. The antiserum which reacted with both alpha and beta subunits of hen brain CaM-kinase II cross-reacted with only the alpha subunit of rat, mouse, rabbit, cat, dog, pig and human brain samples. The purified hen brain CaM-kinase II is a multifunctional enzyme and resembled rat brain CaM-kinase II in several properties. Immunocross-reactivity suggested that there was similarity in the alpha but not the beta/beta' subunits of the hen brain enzyme and the brain enzyme of other species.
