We have studied the effect of protein phosphokinase (EC 2.7.1.37; ATP:protein phosphotransferase) and phosphoprotein phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.16; phosphoprotein phosphohydrolase) on reverse transcriptase (RNA-dependent DNA nucleotidyltransferase) activity of Rous sarcoma virus. Protein kinase from Rous sarcoma virus-transformed chick embryo fibroblasts was purified by DEAE-cellulose chromatography, Sephadex gel filtration, and isoelectric focusing. Purified reverse transcriptase from Rouse sarcoma virus was preincubated with protein kinase and ATP under conditions allowing incorporation of phosphate into substrate protein. After the preincubation, reverse transcriptase activity was assayed in the presence of poly(rA).oligo(dT) as template. A 2- to 5-fold increase of reverse transcriptase activity was found after the preincubation of reverse transcriptase with protein kinase and ATP. Incubation of reverse transcriptase with heat-treated, inactive protein kinase and ATP had no effect on transcriptase activity. When the transcriptase preparation was incubated with protein kinase and [gamma-32P]ATP and subsequently purified by chromatography on phosphocellulose and Sephadex gel filtration, significant amounts of 32P-labeled proteins were found in the fractions exhibiting reverse transcriptase activity, suggesting 32P incorporation into transcriptase or transcriptase-associated proteins. A 20-60% decrease of reverse transcriptase activity was observed after incubation of reverse transcriptase with phosphatase. The results suggest that phosphorylative modification of reverse transcriptase may be critical in the regulation of reverse transcriptase-catalyzed DNA synthesis.

An adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate-dependent protein kinase II (ATP:protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37) was partially purified from the cytosol fraction of an exponentially growing culture of Tetrahymena pyriformis. Protein kinase II represented approximately 90% of the cytosolic protein kinase activity. The enzyme had a high degree of substrate specificity for calf thymus and Tetrahymena histones as compared to casein, protamine and phosvitin. The enzyme incorporated the terminal phosphate of ATP into serine and threonine residues of all the histone fractions. The apparent Km of the enzyme for adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP) was 1-10-minus 8 M. Protein kinase II was also activated by other cyclic nucleotides with apparent Km values in the range 2.k-10-minus 6 M. Ther specific activity of the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase of Tetrahymena decreases markedly from initial high values during the transition from the lag to early log phase of growth. This is followed by a shrp increase in the activity of the enzyme as the log phase of growth progresses. The specific activity of the enzyme increases rapidly during the heat-induced synchronization of Tetrahymena cells. The capacity for rapid phosphorylation of multiple classed of organelle-specific phosphoproteins and the level of cyclic AMP were maximal in Tetrahymena during the earliest phase of growth. These results demonstrate that the cell cycle of Tetrahymena may be coordinated by marked variations in the level of cyclic AMP which in turn regulate the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase.

Experiments with cold exposure confirmed previous studies indicating that the endogenous protein acitvator of phosphodiesterase (PDEA) isolated by Cheung participates in the in vivo regulation of 3':5'-cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) in adrenal medulla. This activator of cAMP phosphodiesterase (PDE) (3':5'-cyclic-AMP 5'-nucleotidohydrolase, EC 3.1.4.17) is present in the particulate as well as the soluble fractions of rat brain. It was found that a purified cAMP-dependent protein kinase (ATP:protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37), in the presence of ATP and cAMP, stimulates 3-fold the release of PDEA from the particulate fraction of rat brain and adrenal medulla. The substrate for this phosphorylation could be either a membrane protein that binds PDEA or PDEA itself. In vivo evidence, however, obtained by injecting rats intraventricularly with [gamma-32P]ATP, indicates that the PDEA does not contain radioactive phosphate in its structure. Also, PDEA could not be phosphorylated by protein kinase in vitro. The following mechanism is postulated: when the intracellular content of cAMP increases it activates a protein kinase which phosphorylates a PDEA-binding membrane protein and releases PDEA. In turn this binds to activator-deficient high Km PDE and decreases its Km to facilitate the hydrolysis of the increased concentration of cAMP.

Synthetic polypeptides were employed as substrates in kinetic analyses of the reaction mechanism for the catalytic subunit of a cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (ATP:protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37) from calf thymus. This enzyme preparation was shown to catalyze the transfer of phosphate from ATP to histone H1 from calf thymus, as well as to two synthetic polypeptides, Arg-Lys-Ala-Ser-Gly-Pro (H1-6) and Arg-Arg-Lys-Ala-Ser-Gly-Pro (H1-7), corresponding to the amino acid sequence about serine-38 in calf H1. A related, basic heptapeptide corresponding to a sequence from pig liver pyruvate kinase, Leu-Arg-Arg-Ala-Ser-Leu-Gly (K), was also a substrate. The stoichiometry of peptide phosphorylation was established in each case as the transfer of 1 mol of phosphate from the gamma position of MgATP to the serine hydroxyl of 1 mol of the peptide. Steady-state, initial-velocity, kinetic parameters were determined for each substrate, using various concentrations of ATP. Under the conditions used, all synthetic peptides reacted with greater maximum velocities than whole histone H1. Nevertheless, the K(m) for H1, 54 muM, was lower than the K(m) values of the synthetic substrates. The most efficient substrate was peptide K, which had a V(max) of 50.6 mumol/min per mg of kinase and a K(m) of 63 muM. In the absence of peptide substrate no ATPase activity was detectable at a sensitivity of 0.05% of the rate of peptide phosphorylation, suggesting that ATP is not cleaved to form an unstable phosphoenzyme complex. The data are consistent with a sequential reaction mechanism involving a ternary complex between enzyme, polypeptide substrate, and ATP.

Nucleoplasmic RNA polymerase II (nucleosidetriphosphate:RNA nucleotidyltransferase, EC 2.7.7.6) from calfthymus is phosphorylated by homologous cyclic AMP-independent protein kinase (ATP:protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37). Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the 32P-labeled RNA polymerase II under non-denaturing conditions revealed that both forms of the enzyme were phosphorylated. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the 32P-labeled RNA polymerase II under denaturing conditions showed that the 25 000 dalton subunit was the phosphate acceptor subunit. Partial acid hydrolysis of the 32P-labeled RNA polymerase II followed by ion-exchange chromatography revealed serine and threonine as the [32P]phosphate acceptor amino acids. Phosphorylation of the RNA polymerase II was accompanied by a stimulation of enzymatic activity and was dependent upon the presence of ATP.

Chinese hamster ovary cells exhibit several characteristic morphological and physiological responses upon treatment with agents which increase the intracellular level of adenosine 3':5'-phosphate (cyclic AMP). To better understand the mechanism of these cyclic AMP-mediated responses, we separated two cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinases (ATP:protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37) (protein kinase I and protein kinase II) from the cytosol of Chinese hamster ovary cells by DEAE-cellulose chromatography and studied their properties. Protein kinase I is eluted at a lower salt concentration than protein kinase II and is stimulable to 10 times its basal catalytic activity, while protein kinase II is stimulable only 2-fold. Both kinases are completely dissociated by cyclic AMP and inhibited by specific cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitor. They have similar Km values for magnesium (approximately 1 mM), cyclic AMP (approximately 60 nM), and ATP (approximately 0.1 mM), and the dissociation constant (Kdis) for cyclic AMP (approximately 13 nM) is the same for both enzymes. However, they appear to have different substrate preferences and cyclic AMP-binding properties in that cyclic AMP bound to protein kinase II exchanges readily with free cyclic AMP, while that bound to protein kinase I is not exchangeable. The native enzymes have different sedimentation coefficients (6.4 S for protein kinase I and 4.8 S for protein kinase II), whereas those of the activated enzymes are the same (2.9--3.0 S). It appears that the two cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinases which differ from each other in their regulatory subunits may play different roles in the mediation of cyclic AMP action in Chinese hamster ovary cells.

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+.
