Several forms of protein kinase C with molecular masses of 74-, 77-, and 80-kDa were detected in subcellular fractions of human breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells which express the alpha-type protein kinase C. Several lines of evidence indicated that the 74-kDa is the precursor of the 77- and 80-kDa protein kinase C forms. (i) Pulse-labeling experiments revealed that protein kinase C is synthesized on membranes as a 74-kDa protein that can be chased into the 77- and the 80-kDa protein kinase C forms. (ii) The primary translation product of protein kinase C displayed an apparent molecular size of 74-kDa as determined by in vitro translation of poly(A)+ RNA from MDA-MB-231 cells. (iii) Incubation with serine/threonine-specific protein phosphatases (potato acid phosphatase and phosphatase 1 or 2A) resulted in the complete dephosphorylation of the 77-kDa to the 74-kDa protein kinase C form. Protein kinase C appears to be synthesized in membranes as an unphosphorylated and presumably inactive 74-kDa form that is converted into the active 77- and 80-kDa protein kinase C by post-translational modification involving at least two phosphorylation steps. The first phosphorylation is probably achieved by a specific, yet unidentified, "protein kinase C kinase" since the 74-kDa protein kinase C species did not undergo autophosphorylation and was neither a substrate for the purified protein kinase C, S6 kinase, phosphorylase kinase, casein kinase II, nor for the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Except for phosphorylase kinase and the catalytic subunit of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase, phosphorylation of the 77-kDa protein kinase C form with purified protein kinase C (autophosphorylation), S6 kinase or casein kinase II shifted the molecular mass of the 77-kDa protein kinase C to 80-kDa. Prolonged exposure of MDA-MB-231 cells to phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate not only leads to a complete down-regulation of protein kinase C activity but also to an accumulation of 74-kDa protein kinase C due to a retarded conversion of the 74-kDa into the 77- and 80-kDa protein kinase C forms in these cells. Our data indicate that tumor promoters additionally interfere with the posttranslational processing that converts the 74-kDa protein kinase C precursor into the 77- and 80-kDa forms of the enzyme. 相似文献

Protein function is often regulated by posttranslational modifications (PTMs), and recent advances in mass spectrometry have resulted in an exponential increase in PTM identification. However, the functional significance of the vast majority of these modifications remains unknown. To address this problem, we compiled nearly 200,000 phosphorylation, acetylation, and ubiquitination sites from 11 eukaryotic species, including 2,500 newly identified ubiquitylation sites for Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We developed methods to prioritize the functional relevance of these PTMs by predicting those that likely participate in cross-regulatory events, regulate domain activity, or mediate protein-protein interactions. PTM conservation within domain families identifies regulatory "hot spots" that overlap with functionally important regions, a concept that we experimentally validated on the HSP70 domain family. Finally, our analysis of the evolution of PTM regulation highlights potential routes for neutral drift in regulatory interactions and suggests that only a fraction of modification sites are likely to have a significant biological role. 相似文献

Cofactors in and as posttranslational protein modifications 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A symposium at the FASEB meeting in Las Vegas in May 1988 will be devoted to the role of cofactors (vitamins, coenzymes, prosthetic groups) in and as posttranslational protein modifications; the symposium is part of a thematic focus on metabolic regulation. In planning the symposium, we decided to consider metabolic regulation in its broadest context, which should include both the short-term activity modulations in the life of contemporary organisms and the adaptations of special molecular strategies over evolutionary time. We further decided to focus the symposium context on the involvement of cofactors both as catalytic participants in and as substrates or end products of posttranslational modifications. As a preview of the actual symposium, the present discussion is an attempt to enumerate cases of cofactor involvement in these different categories: 1) essential nutrients as participants in posttranslational modifications; 2) cofactors as donor substrates in reversible, regulatory modifications; and 3) cofactor incorporation or generation as covalent constituents of proteins. The actual symposium topics are taken from category 1: vitamin C and protein hydroxylation (K. I. Karivikkio) and vitamin K and protein carboxylation (J. W. Suttie) and category 3: biotinylation (H. G. Wood), phycobiliproteins (A. Glazer), and pyruvoyl enzymes (W. Dowhan). 相似文献

The sites of posttranslational modifications of the influenza A virus M2 protein were examined, and the effect of these modifications on the M2 protein ion channel activity was analyzed. Cysteine residues 17 and 19 in the M2 protein ectodomain form disulfide bonds. The cytoplasmic tail is posttranslationally modified by palmitoylation, and mutagenic studies support the view that cysteine residue 50 is the site for fatty acylation. In addition, the cytoplasmic tail of the M2 protein was found to be posttranslationally modified by the addition of phosphate to specific serine residues. Site-directed mutagenesis of serine residues in the M2 protein cytoplasmic tail, combined with phosphoamino acid analysis, indicated that serine residue 64 is the predominant site for phosphorylation but that serine residues 82, 89, and 93 were also phosphorylated but to much lesser extents. Disulfide-bond formation, palmitoylation, and phosphorylation occurred on M2 protein expressed in mammalian cells infected with influenza virus, in mammalian cells in which the M2 protein was expressed from DNA expression vectors, and when the M2 protein was expressed in oocytes of Xenopus laevis. The membrane currents of oocytes of Xenopus laevis expressing wild-type and site-specifically altered forms of the M2 protein, to ablate posttranslational modifications, indicated that none of the posttranslational modifications significantly affected the ion channel activity of the M2 protein in oocytes. Therefore, these data do not indicate a functional role for posttranslational modifications of the M2 protein in its ion channel activity. 相似文献

Posttranslational modifications of proteins possess key functions in the regulation of various cellular processes. While they facilitate fast, location-specific and transient reactions to changing conditions in the first place they enhance the already high complexity of a cellular proteome by orders of magnitude. Furthermore, they can utterly alter the properties of the modified protein, thus making a timely analysis even more difficult. While several standardized methods for the analysis of protein phosphorylation and glycosylation have been established most other modifications require tailor-made solutions for a comprehensive analysis. Therefore, we will provide guidelines for the analysis of some important posttranslational modifications that are underrepresented in contemporary literature. 相似文献

Posttranslational modifications are increasingly recognized as key strategies used by bacterial and viral pathogens to modulate host factors critical for infection. A number of recent studies illustrate how pathogens use these posttranslational modifications to target central signaling pathways in the host cell, such as the NF-kB and MAP kinase pathways, which are essential for pathogens' replication, propagation, and evasion from host immune responses. These discoveries open new avenues for investigating the fundamental mechanisms of pathogen infection and the development of new therapeutics. 相似文献

The objective of this investigation was to determine whether nonmammalian myelin basic protein contained charge isomers resulting from extensive posttranslational modifications as seen in mammalian MBP. Four charge isomer components from dogfish MBP have been isolated. These forms arise by phosphorylation and deamidation modifications. Components C1, C2 and C3 have been characterized. We are currently characterizing component C8. Dogfish MBP is less cationic than mammalian MBP and has about 50% lower mobility on a basic pH gel electrophoresis relative to human and to bovine MBP. The mammalian component C1, which is unmodified, is modified in the dogfish by phosphorylation. The reduced electrophoretic mobility is largely attributable to the charge reduction resulting from phosphorylation in serine 72, 83, and 120 or 121 in C1, and C3. In component C2, two or three phosphate groups were distributed among residues 134, 138 and 139. It was found that dogfish amino acid residue 30 was a lysine residue and not a glutamate residue as reported in the literature. 相似文献

In this report, we examine the performance of a mass spectrometry (MS)-based method for quantification of protein posttranslational modifications (PTMs) using stable isotope labeled internal standards. Uniform labeling of proteins and highly similar behavior of the labeled vs nonlabeled analyte pairs during chromatographic separation and electrospray ionization (ESI) provide the means to directly quantify a wide range of PTMs. In the companion report (Jiang et al., Anal. Biochem., 421 (2012) 506-516.), we provided principles and example applications of the method. Here we show satisfactory accuracy and precision for quantifying protein modifications by using the SILIS method when the analyses were performed on different types of mass spectrometers, such as ion-trap, time-of-flight (TOF), and quadrupole instruments. Additionally, the stable isotope labeled internal standard (SILIS) method demonstrated an extended linear range of quantification expressed in accurate quantification up to at least a 4 log concentration range on three different types of mass spectrometers. We also demonstrate that lengthy chromatographic separation is no longer required to obtain quality results, offering an opportunity to significantly shorten the method run time. The results indicate the potential of this methodology for rapid and large-scale assessment of multiple quality attributes of a therapeutic protein in a single analysis. 相似文献

With the increased attention to quality by design (QbD) for biopharmaceutical products, there is a demand for accurate and precise quantification methods to monitor critical quality attributes (CQAs). To address this need we have developed a mass spectrometry (MS) based method to quantify a wide range of posttranslational modifications (PTMs) in recombinant proteins using stable isotope-labeled internal standard (SILIS). The SILIS was produced through metabolic labeling where 15N was uniformly introduced at every nitrogen atom in the studied proteins. To enhance the accuracy of the method, the levels of PTMs in SILIS were quantified using orthogonal analytical techniques. Digestion of an unknown sample mixed with SILIS generates a labeled and a nonlabeled version of each peptide. The nonlabeled and labeled counterparts coelute during RP-HPLC separation but exhibit a sufficient mass difference to be distinguished by MS detection. With the application of SILIS, numerous PTMs can be quantified in a single analysis based on the measured MS signal ratios of 15N-labeled versus the nonlabeled pairs. Several examples using microbial and mammalian-expressed recombinant proteins demonstrated the principle and utility of this method. The results indicate that SILIS is a valuable methodology in addressing CQAs for the QbD paradigm. 相似文献

Calreticulin (CRT) is a highly versatile lectin-like chaperone that affects many cellular functions both inside and outside the endoplasmic reticulum lumen. We previously reported that calreticulin interacts with several protein kinase C isozymes both in vitro and in vivo. The aim of this study was to elucidate the molecular determinants involved in the association between these proteins and the biochemical significance of their interaction. Using full-length or CRT-domain constructs expressed as GST-fusion proteins, we found that protein kinase C binds to the CRT N domain in overlay and pull-down assays. Phosphorylation experiments showed that only this CRT domain is phosphorylated by the kinase. Lectin blot analysis demonstrated that CRT is modified by N-glycosylation, but this modification did not affect its interaction with protein kinase C. We also demonstrated that although both domains of protein kinase C theta can bind to CRT, it is the catalytic one that binds with higher affinity to CRT. Immunofluorescence studies showed that CRT and PKC co-localize mainly at the ER (estimated in 35%). Activation of protein kinase C induced caused transient changes in CRT localization, and unexpectedly, also induced changes in posttranslational modifications found in the protein: CRT N-glycosylation is abolished, whereas tyrosine phosphorylation and O-linked β-N-acetylglucosamine modification are increased. Together, these findings suggest that protein kinase C is involved in the regulation of CRT function. 相似文献

Protein activity and turnover is tightly and dynamically regulated in living cells. Whereas the three-dimensional protein structure is predominantly determined by the amino acid sequence, posttranslational modification (PTM) of proteins modulates their molecular function and the spatial-temporal distribution in cells and tissues. Most PTMs can be detected by protein and peptide analysis by mass spectrometry (MS), either as a mass increment or a mass deficit relative to the nascent unmodified protein. Tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) provides a series of analytical features that are highly useful for the characterization of modified proteins via amino acid sequencing and specific detection of posttranslationally modified amino acid residues. Large-scale, quantitative analysis of proteins by MS/MS is beginning to reveal novel patterns and functions of PTMs in cellular signaling networks and biomolecular structures. 相似文献

Cross-talk among different types of posttranslational modifications (PTMs) has emerged as an important regulatory mechanism for protein function. Here we elucidate a mechanism that controls PKCα stability via a sequential cascade of PTMs. We demonstrate that PKCα dephosphorylation decreases its sumoylation, which in turn promotes its ubiquitination and ultimately enhances its degradation via the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. These findings provide a molecular explanation for the activation-induced down-regulation of PKC proteins. 相似文献

Some proteins undergo posttranslational modification by the addition of an isoprenyl lipid (farnesyl- or geranylgeranyl-isoprenoid) to a cysteine residue proximal to the C terminus. Protein isoprenylation promotes membrane association and contributes to protein-protein interactions. Farnesylated proteins include small GTPases, tyrosine phosphatases, nuclear lamina, cochaperones, and centromere-associated proteins. Prenylation is required for the transforming activity of Ras. Because of the high frequency of Ras mutations in cancer, farnesyl transferase inhibitors (FTIs) were investigated as a means to antagonize Ras function. Evaluation of FTIs led to the finding that both K- and N-Ras are alternatively modified by geranylgeranyl prenyltransferase-1 in FTI-treated cells. Geranylgeranylated forms of Ras retain the ability to associate with the plasma membrane and activate substrates. Despite this, FTIs are effective at inhibiting the growth of human tumor cells in vitro, suggesting that activity is dependent on blocking the farnesylation of other proteins. FTIs also inhibit the in vivo growth of human tumor xenografts and sensitize these models to chemotherapeutics, most notably taxanes. Several FTIs have entered clinical trials for various cancer indications. In some clinical settings, primarily hematologic malignancies, FTIs have displayed evidence of single-agent activity. Clinical studies in progress are exploring the antitumor activity of FTIs as single agents and in combination. This review will summarize the basic biology of FTIs, their antitumor activity in preclinical models, and the current status of clinical studies with these agents. 相似文献

In the present work the complexity in the 2D-gel protein pattern of murin lenticular alphaA-Crystallin was analyzed. An in depth study of the different protein isoforms was done combining different proteomic tools. Lens proteins of four different ages, from embryo to 100-week-old mice, were separated by large 2D-PAGE, revealing an increase in the number and intensity of the spots of alphaA-Crystallin during the process of aging. For further analyses the oldest mice were chosen. Comparison and evaluation of two different staining methods proved Imidazole-Zinc to be a good alternative to the generally used Coomassie stain. The characterization of the different alphaA-Crystallin protein species was done using nanoLC-ESI-MS/MS (liquid chromatography electrospray ionisation tandem mass spectrometry). Data interpretation was done by database searching, manual validation and a new MS/MS-interpretation tool for posttranslational modifications--the PTM-Explorer. Using this way, eight different phosphorylation sites were identified and localized; the identification of four of them was not published so far. Furthermore, quantitative N-terminal acetylation of alphaA-Crystallin and variable C-terminal truncation was observed, also not published in this extent yet. The results of the mass spectrometric analysis were validated by immunoblotting experiments using two different alphaA-Crystallin specific antibodies. In addition, a fluorescent phospho-specific stain was used to detect the protein spots including phosphorylation groups. Re-separation 2D-PAGE was done to round off the present study and explain the appearance of some of the protein spots in the gel as artifacts of the 2D-PAGE separation. 相似文献

The unique combination of nucleophilicity and redox-sensitivity that is characteristic of cysteine residues results in a variety of posttranslational modifications (PTMs), including oxidation, nitrosation, glutathionylation, prenylation, palmitoylation and Michael adducts with lipid-derived electrophiles (LDEs). These PTMs regulate the activity of diverse protein families by modulating the reactivity of cysteine nucleophiles within active sites of enzymes, and governing protein localization between soluble and membrane-bound forms. Many of these modifications are highly labile, sensitive to small changes in the environment, and dynamic, rendering it difficult to detect these modified species within a complex proteome. Several chemical-proteomic platforms have evolved to study these modifications and enable a better understanding of the diversity of proteins that are regulated by cysteine PTMs. These platforms include: (1) chemical probes to selectively tag PTM-modified cysteines; (2) differential labeling platforms that selectively reveal and tag PTM-modified cysteines; (3) lipid, isoprene and LDE derivatives containing bioorthogonal handles; and (4) cysteine-reactivity profiling to identify PTM-induced decreases in cysteine nucleophilicity. Here, we will provide an overview of these existing chemical-proteomic strategies and their effectiveness at identifying PTM-modified cysteine residues within native biological systems. 相似文献
