Purified Ca(2+)-stimulated, Mg(2+)-dependent ATPase (Ca(2+)-ATPase) from human erythrocytes was phosphorylated with a stoichiometry of about 1 mol of phosphate/mol of ATPase at both threonine and serine residues by purified rat brain type III protein kinase C. In the presence of calmodulin, the phosphorylation was markedly reduced. Labeled phosphate from [gamma-32P]ATP was retained on an 86-kDa calmodulin-binding tryptic fragment of Ca(2+)-ATPase but not on 82- and 77-kDa non-calmodulin-binding fragments. Similarly, fragmentation of the phosphorylated Ca(2+)-ATPase by calpain I revealed that calmodulin-binding fragments (127 and 125 kDa) retained phosphate label whereas a non-calmodulin-binding fragment (124 kDa) did not. The calmodulin-binding domain, located about 12 kDa from the carboxyl terminus of the Ca(2+)-ATPase, was thus located as a site of protein kinase C phosphorylation. A synthetic peptide corresponding to a segment of the calmodulin-binding domain (H2 N-R-G-L-N-R-I-Q-T-Q-I-K-V-V-N-COOH) was indeed phosphorylated at the single threonine residue within this sequence. The additional serine phosphorylation site was carboxyl terminal to the calmodulin domain. Phosphorylation by purified type III protein kinase C (canine heart) antagonized the calmodulin activation of the Ca(2+)-ATPase, particularly at lower Ca2+ concentrations (0.2-1.0 microM). By contrast, a purified but unresolved protein kinase C isoenzyme mixture from rat brain stimulated the activity of Ca(2+)-ATPase prepared in asolectin, but not glycerol, by more than 2-fold in the presence of the ionophore A23187, without increasing its Ca2+ sensitivity. The results clearly indicate that human erythrocyte Ca(2+)-ATPase is a substrate of protein kinase C, but the effect of phosphorylation on the activity of the enzyme depends on the isoenzyme form of protein kinase C used and on the lipid associated with the Ca(2+)-ATPase.

Dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD) inhibits the activity of the F1F0-H+ ATP synthase of Escherichia coli by reacting with aspartyl 61 in subunit c of the FO sector to form a stable N-acylurea. The segment of chromosomal DNA which codes the subunits of the FO was cloned from four independently isolated DCCD-resistant mutants, and the sequence of the subunit c gene (uncE) was determined. An Ala24 to serine (A24S) substitution was found in the subunit c gene of each mutant. The A24S uncE gene was cloned into the BamHI site of a mutant derivative of plasmid pBR322. The A24S subunit c conferred DCCD resistance to a variety of recipient E. coli strains when it was overexpressed from this plasmid. A 7-base pair deletion beginning at position 132 of the plasmid vector was responsible for the observed overexpression. Hoppe et al. (Hoppe, J., Schairer, H. U., and Sebald, W. (1980) Eur. J. Biochem. 112, 17-24) had previously shown that mutation of subunit c Ile28 to threonine or valine resulted in DCCD resistance. The DCCD sensitivities of the membrane ATPase of these mutants and the A24S mutant were compared. DCCD sensitivity decreased in the order: wild-type much greater than I27V greater than I28T = A24S. The venturicidin sensitivities of wild-type and mutant membranes were also examined. The membrane ATPase of the I28T and I28V mutants was venturicidin resistant whereas the A24S substitution resulted in a hypersensitivity to inhibition by venturicidin. These results support a model in which subunit c folds in the membrane like a hairpin, where the region of residues 24-28 in transmembrane helix-1 is close to that of aspartyl 61 in transmembrane helix-2.

DnaK, the sole Escherichia coli member of the highly conserved 70-kDa heat shock protein (HSP70) family of proteins, autophosphorylates when incubated with ATP in vitro. We show that threonine-199 is the amino acid that becomes phosphorylated and we demonstrate that threonine-199 is critical for the ATPase activity of DnaK. We also report that both the ATPase and autophosphorylating activities of DnaK increase very strongly over the range of temperatures that is physiologically relevant for E. coli growth. The temperature dependence of either or both of these activities could be of significance with respect to the postulated role of DnaK as a molecular chaperone in helping cells ameliorate the deleterious consequences of elevated temperature. Furthermore, we postulate that DnaK plays a key role in regulation of the heat shock response by serving as a cellular thermometer that directly senses the environmental temperature.

We have previously demonstrated [Rihs, H.-P. and Peters, R. (1989) EMBO J., 8, 1479-1484] that the nuclear transport of recombinant proteins in which short fragments of the SV40 T-antigen are fused to the amino terminus of Escherichia coli beta-galactosidase is dependent on both the nuclear localization sequence (NLS, T-antigen residues 126-132) and a phosphorylation-site-containing sequence (T-antigen residues 111-125). While the NLS determines the specificity, the rate of transport is controlled by the phosphorylation-site-containing sequence. The present study furthers this observation and examines the role of the various phosphorylation sites. Purified, fluorescently labeled recombinant proteins were injected into the cytoplasm of Vero or hepatoma (HTC) cells and the kinetics of nuclear transport measured by laser microfluorimetry. By replacing serine and threonine residues known to be phosphorylated in vivo, we identified the casein kinase II (CK-II) site S111/S112 to be the determining factor in the enhancement of the transport. Either of the residues 111 or 112 was sufficient to elicit the maximum transport enhancement. The other phosphorylation sites (S120, S123, T124) had no influence on the transport rate. Examination of the literature suggested that many proteins harboring a nuclear localization sequence also contain putative CK-II sites at a distance of approximately 10-30 amino acid residues from the NLS. CK-II has been previously implicated in the transmission of growth signals to the nucleus. Our results suggest that CK-II may exert this role by controlling the rate of nuclear protein transport.

An endogenous ATPase inhibitor protein has been identified and isolated for the first time from plant mitochondria. The inhibitor protein was isolated from potato (Solanum tuberosum) tuber mitochondria and purified to homogeneity. The isolated inhibitor is a heat-stable, trypsin-sensitive, basic protein, with a molecular mass approximately 8.3 kDa. Amino acid analysis reveals a high content of glutamic acid, lysine and arginine and the absence of proline; threonine and leucine. The interaction of the inhibitor with F1-ATPase requires the presence of Mg2(+)-ATP in the incubation medium. The ATPase activity of isolated F1 is inhibited to 50% in the presence of 14 micrograms inhibitor/mg F1. A stoichiometry of 1.3 mol inhibitor/mol F1 for complete inhibition can be calculated from this value. The potato ATPase inhibitor is also a potent inhibitor of the ATPase activity of the isolated yeast F1. The inhibitor resembles the ATPase inhibitors of yeast and mammalian mitochondria, and does not seem to be related to the inhibitory peptide, epsilon subunit, of chloroplast ATPase.

Spinach chloroplast RNA polymerase has been shown to efficiently terminate transcription at the threonine attenuator (thra) from Escherichia coli. In this study, efficient transcription termination by the chloroplast RNA polymerase was observed at a second prokaryotic terminator, the histidine attenuator (hisa) from Salmonella typhimurium. Termination occurred regardless of the orientation of either attenuator. In higher-plant chloroplast DNA, the genes for the beta subunit of the ATPase (atpB) and the large subunit of ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (rbcL) are adjacent and divergently transcribed. Bidirectional transcription vectors, containing the histidine and threonine terminators, were constructed to analyze the divergently oriented atpB and rbcL promotors. One plasmid construction, pRTT7, contained two tandem copies of the threonine attenuator (pRTT7). Two additional constructs, pRHT1 and pRHT2, each contained oppositely oriented copies of thra and hisa. A DNA fragment containing the rbcL and atpB promoters was inserted between the two terminators present in the pRTT7, pRHT1, and pRHT2 plasmids. Transcription of these recombinant DNAs by spinach chloroplast RNA polymerase resulted in discretely sized rbcL and atpB transcripts. In addition, these bidirectional transcription vectors were used to identify previously uncharacterized chloroplast promoters.

The kinetics of phosphorylation of an integral membrane enzyme, Na+/K(+)-ATPase, by calcium- and phospholipid-dependent protein kinase C (PKC) were characterized in vitro. The phosphorylation by PKC occurred on the catalytic alpha-subunit of Na+/K(+)-ATPase in preparations of purified enzyme from dog kidney and duck salt-gland and in preparations of duck salt-gland microsomes. The phosphorylation required calcium (Ka approximately 1.0 microM) and was stimulated by tumor-promoting phorbol ester (12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate) in the presence of a low concentration of calcium (0.1 microM). PKC phosphorylation of Na+/K(+)-ATPase was rapid and plateaued within 30 min. The apparent Km of PKC for Na+/K(+)-ATPase as a substrate was 0.5 microM for dog kidney enzyme and 0.3 microM for duck salt-gland enzyme. Apparent substrate inhibition of PKC activity was observed at concentrations of purified salt-gland Na+/K(+)-ATPase greater than 1.0 microM. Phosphorylation of purified kidney and salt-gland Na+/K+ ATPases occurred at both serine and threonine residues. The 32P-phosphopeptide pattern on 15% sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis after hydroxylamine cleavage of pure 32P-phosphorylated alpha subunit was the same for the two sources of enzyme, which suggests that the phosphorylation sites are similar. The results indicate that Na+/K(+)-ATPase may serve as a substrate for PKC phosphorylation in intact cells and that the Na+/K(+)-ATPase could be a useful in vitro model substrate for PKC interaction with integral membrane proteins.

Protein kinase C (PKC) consists of a family of Ca2(+)- and phospholipid-dependent protein kinases that catalyze the transfer of the gamma-phosphate of ATP to phosphoacceptor serine or threonine residues of protein and peptide substrates. In this report, we demonstrate that purified, autophosphorylated rat brain PKC catalyzes a Ca2(+)- and phospholipid-dependent ATPase reaction, that appears to represent the bond-breaking step of its phosphotransferase reaction. The histone kinase and ATPase activities of PKC each had a Kmapp of 6 microM for ATP, and their metal ion cofactor requirements were similar. The rate of the Ca2(+)- and phospholipid-dependent PKC-catalyzed ATPase reaction was approximately 5 times slower than the rate of histone phosphorylation, but the basal rates of the PKC-catalyzed ATPase and histone kinase activities differed by less than a factor of 2. The mechanism of the ATPase reaction could entail either direct hydrolysis of ATP by water or formation of a stable phosphoenzyme (PKC-P) followed by its hydrolysis (PKC + Pi). The latter mechanism appears unlikely since [gamma-32P]ATP failed to label autophosphorylated PKC. Furthermore, the PKC preparation did not contain contaminating protein phosphatases, excluding the possibility that the ATPase activity represented dephosphorylation of contaminating PKC substrates. Therefore, our results suggest that water may effectively compete with protein substrates of PKC for the gamma-phosphate of ATP. Using PKC inhibitors and activators, we found that the ATPase and protein kinase activities of PKC were regulated analogously, providing evidence that allosteric activation of PKC involves facilitation of the bond-breaking step of the phosphotransferase reaction.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Phosphorylation of a single threonine (myosin IA) or serine (myosins IB and IC) in the heavy chains of the Acanthamoeba myosin I isozymes is required for expression of their actin-activated Mg2(+)-ATPase activities. We now report that the synthetic peptide Gly-Arg-Gly-Arg-Ser-Ser-Val-Tyr-Ser, which corresponds to the phosphorylated region of Acanthamoeba myosin IC, is a good substrate for myosin I heavy chain kinase: Km = 54 microM, and Vmax = 15 mumols/min.mg. The same serine is phosphorylated as in the native substrate (residue 6 in the above sequence), and kinase activity with the synthetic peptide as substrate is also stimulated by phosphatidylserine-enhanced autophosphorylation of the kinase. These results indicate that all of the essential sequence determinants of kinase specificity are contained within this 9-residue peptide. With the peptide as substrate, we found that another acidic phospholipid, phosphatidylinositol, also enhances autophosphorylation of the kinase whereas the neutral phospholipids phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine do not. By comparing the Km and Vmax values for a series of synthetic peptide substrates, we established that 1 basic amino acid is essential on the NH2-terminal side of the phosphorylation site, and two are preferable, and that a tyrosine is essential 2 residues away on the COOH-terminal side. There is a slight preference for arginines over lysines. All of these local sequence specificity determinants are present in the three native substrates, Acanthamoeba myosins IA, IB, and IC, and in two Dictyostelium myosin I isozymes that are putative substrates for the kinase. Similar sequences do not occur in the myosins I from intestinal brush border, which is not a substrate for the Acanthamoeba kinase.

Bovine platelet myosin is phosphorylated by protein kinase C at multiple sites. Most of the phosphate is incorporated in the 20,000-dalton light chain although some phosphate is incorporated in the heavy chain. Phosphorylation of the 20,000-dalton light chain of platelet myosin is 10 times faster than the phosphorylation of smooth muscle myosin. Platelet myosin light chain is first phosphorylated at a threonine residue followed by a serine residue. Dominant phosphorylation sites of the 20,000-dalton light chain are estimated as serine-1, serine-2, and threonine-9. Prolonged phosphorylation by protein kinase C resulted in an additional phosphorylation site which, on the basis of limited proteolysis, appears to be either serine-19 or threonine-18. Phosphorylation by protein kinase C causes an inhibition of actin-activated ATPase activity of platelet myosin prephosphorylated by myosin light chain kinase. Inhibition of ATPase activity is due to a decreased affinity of myosin for actin, and no change in Vmax is observed. It is shown that platelet myosin also exhibits the 6S to 10S conformation transition as judged by viscosity and gel filtration methods. Mg2(+)-ATPase activity of platelet myosin is paralleled with the 10S-6S transition. Phosphorylation by protein kinase C affects neither the 10S-6S transition nor the myosin filament formation. Therefore, the inhibition of actin-activated ATPase activity of platelet myosin is not due to the change in the myosin conformation.
