Choline acetyltransferase, the enzyme that synthesizes the transmitter acetylcholine in cholinergic neurons, is a substrate for protein kinase C. In the present study, we used mass spectrometry to identify serine 440 in recombinant human 69-kDa choline acetyltransferase as a protein kinase C phosphorylation site, and site-directed mutagenesis to determine that phosphorylation of this residue is involved in regulation of the enzyme's catalytic activity and binding to subcellular membranes. Incubation of HEK293 cells stably expressing wild-type 69-kDa choline acetyltransferase with the protein kinase C activator phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate showed time- and dose-related increases in specific activity of the enzyme; in control and phorbol ester-treated cells, the enzyme was distributed predominantly in cytoplasm (about 88%) with the remainder (about 12%) bound to cellular membranes. Mutation of serine 440 to alanine resulted in localization of the enzyme entirely in cytoplasm, and this was unchanged by phorbol ester treatment. Furthermore, activation of mutant enzyme in phorbol ester-treated HEK293 cells was about 50% that observed for wild-type enzyme. Incubation of immunoaffinity purified wild-type and mutant choline acetyltransferase with protein kinase C under phosphorylating conditions led to incorporation of [(32)P]phosphate, with radiolabeling of mutant enzyme being about one-half that of wild-type, indicating that another residue is phosphorylated by protein kinase C. Acetylcholine synthesis in HEK293 cells expressing wild-type choline acetyltransferase, but not mutant enzyme, was increased by about 17% by phorbol ester treatment. 相似文献

Neuromodulin (P-57, GAP-43, B-50, F-1) is a neurospecific calmodulin binding protein that is phosphorylated by protein kinase C. Phosphorylation by protein kinase C has been shown to abolish the affinity of neuromodulin for calmodulin [Alexander, K. A., Cimler, B. M., Meier, K. E., & Storm, D. R. (1987) J. Biol. Chem. 262, 6108-6113], and we have proposed that the concentration of free CaM in neurons may be regulated by phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of neuromodulin. The purpose of this study was to identify the protein kinase C phosphorylation site(s) in neuromodulin using recombinant neuromodulin as a substrate. Toward this end, it was demonstrated that recombinant neuromodulin purified from Escherichia coli and bovine neuromodulin were phosphorylated with similar Km values and stoichiometries and that protein kinase C mediated phosphorylation of both proteins abolished binding to calmodulin-Sepharose. Recombinant neuromodulin was phosphorylated by using protein kinase C and [gamma-32P]ATP and digested with trypsin, and the resulting peptides were separated by HPLC. Only one 32P-labeled tryptic peptide was generated from phosphorylated neuromodulin. The sequence of this peptide was IQASFR. The serine in this peptide corresponds to position 41 of the entire protein, which is adjacent to or contained within the calmodulin binding domain of neuromodulin. A synthetic peptide, QASFRGHITRKKLKGEK, corresponding to the calmodulin binding domain with a few flanking residues, including serine-41, was also phosphorylated by protein kinase C. We conclude that serine-41 is the protein kinase C phosphorylation site of neuromodulin and that phosphorylation of this amino acid residue blocks binding of calmodulin to neuromodulin.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Like virtually all endocytic receptors, the human asialoglycoprotein (ASGP) receptor is phosphorylated by protein kinase C at serine residues within the cytoplasmic domains of its two subunits H1 and H2. Activation of protein kinase C by phorbol esters results in hyperphosphorylation and in a concomitant net redistribution of receptors to intracellular compartments (down-regulation) in HepG2 cells. To test whether there is a causal relationship between receptor hyperphosphorylation and redistribution, we examined the effect of phorbol ester treatment on the ASGP receptor composed of either wild-type subunits or of mutant subunits lacking any cytoplasmic serine residues in transfected NIH3T3 fibroblast and COS-7 cells. Although the wild-type subunits were hyperphosphorylated in fibroblast cells, the distribution of neither the wild-type nor the mutant receptors was affected. In contrast, phorbol ester treatment of transfected COS-7 cells induced down-regulation of both wild-type and mutant receptors. These findings indicate that redistribution of the receptor is independent of its cytoplasmic serines and is not caused by receptor phosphorylation. 相似文献

Characterization of the calmodulin binding domain of neuromodulin. Functional significance of serine 41 and phenylalanine 42. 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14

Neuromodulin (also designated P-57, GAP-43, B-50) is a major presynaptic substrate for protein kinase C. Phosphorylation of neuromodulin decreases its affinity for calmodulin, suggesting that neuromodulin may function to bind and concentrate calmodulin at specific sites within neurons, releasing calmodulin locally in response to phosphorylation by protein kinase C (Alexander, K. A., Cimler, B. M., Meier, K. E., and Storm, D. R. (1987) J. Biol. Chem. 262, 6108-6113). In the present study, we have constructed and characterized several mutant neuromodulins to demonstrate that the amino acid sequence 39-56 is required for calmodulin binding, and that this domain contains the sole in vitro protein kinase C phosphorylation site at serine 41. We also demonstrate that the adjacent phenylalanine 42, interacts hydrophobically with calmodulin. These hydrophobic interactions may be disrupted by the introduction of negative charge at serine 41, and thereby regulate the neuromodulin/calmodulin binding interactions. The sensitivity of the neuromodulin/calmodulin binding interaction to negative charge at serine 41 was determined by substitution of serine 41 with an aspartate or an asparagine residue. The asparagine mutant retained its affinity for calmodulin-Sepharose while the aspartate mutant did not adsorb to calmodulin-Sepharose. We conclude that protein kinase C phosphorylation of neuromodulin abolishes calmodulin binding by introducing negative charges within the calmodulin binding domain at a position adjacent to the phenylalanine. 相似文献

Protein kinase D (PKD) is a serine/threonine kinase regulated by diacylglycerol signaling pathways with unique domain composition and enzymatic properties, still awaiting identification of its specific substrate(s). Here we have isolated, cloned, and characterized a novel protein from PC12 cells, termed Kidins220 (kinase D-interacting substrate of 220 kDa), as the first identified PKD physiological substrate. Kidins220 contains 11 ankyrin repeats and four transmembrane domains within the N-terminal region. We have shown that Kidins220 is an integral membrane protein selectively expressed in brain and neuroendocrine cells, where it concentrates at the tip of neurites. In PC12 cells, PKD co-immunoprecipitates and phosphorylates endogenous Kidins220. This phosphorylation is increased after stimulating PKD activity in vivo by phorbol-12, 13-dibutyrate treatment. A constitutively active PKD mutant (PKD-S744E/S748E) phosphorylates recombinant Kindins220-VSVG in vitro in the absence of phorbol-12,13-dibutyrate. Conversely, Kidins220-VSVG phosphorylation is abolished when a dominant negative mutant of PKD (PKD-D733A) is used. Moreover, a peptide within the Kidins220 sequence, containing serine 919 in a consensus motif for PKD-specific phosphorylation, behaved as the best peptide substrate to date. Substitution of serine 919 to alanine abrogated peptide phosphorylation. Furthermore, by generating an antibody recognizing Kidins220 phosphorylated on serine 919, we show that phorbol ester treatment causes the specific phosphorylation of this residue in PC12 cells in vivo. Our results provide the first physiological substrate for PKD and indicate that Kidins220 is phosphorylated by PKD at serine 919 in vivo. 相似文献

Neuromodulin (also called GAP43, G50, F1, pp46), a neural-specific calmodulin binding protein, is a major protein kinase C substrate found in developing and regenerating neurons. Here, we report the immunocytochemical characterization of neuromodulin in cultured 0-2A bipotential glial precursor cells obtained from newborn rat brain. Neuromodulin is also present in oligodendrocytes and type 2 astrocytes (stellate-shaped astrocytes), which are both derived from the bipotential glial 0-2A progenitor cells, but is absent of type 1 astrocytes (flat protoplasmic astrocytes). These results support the hypothesis of a common cell lineage for neurons and bipotential 0-2A progenitor cells and suggest that neuromodulin plays a more general role in plasticity during development of the central nervous system. The expression of neuromodulin in secondary cultures of newborn rat oligodendrocytes and its absence in type 1 astrocytes was confirmed by Northern blot analysis of isolated total RNA from these different types of cells using a cDNA probe for the neuromodulin mRNA and by Western blot analysis of the cell extracts using polyclonal antibodies against neuromodulin. The properties of the neuromodulin protein in cultured oligodendrocytes and neuronal cells have been compared. Although neuromodulin in oligodendrocytes is soluble in 2.5% perchloric acid like the neuronal counterpart it migrates essentially as a single protein spot on two-dimensional gel electrophoresis whereas the neuronal antigen can be resolved into at least three distinct protein spots. To obtain precise alignments of the different neuromodulin spots from these two cell types, oligodendrocyte and neuronal cell extracts were mixed together and run on the same two-dimensional gel electrophoresis system. Oligodendroglial neuromodulin migrates with a pI identical to the basic forms of the neuronal protein in isoelectric focusing gel. However, the glial neuromodulin shows a slightly lower mobility in the second dimensional lithium dodecyl sulfate-PAGE than its neuronal counterpart. As measured by 32Pi incorporation, neuromodulin phosphorylation in oligodendrocytes is dramatically increased after short-term phorbol ester treatments, which activate protein kinase C, and is totally inhibited by long-term phorbol ester treatments, which downregulates protein kinase C, thus confirming its probable specific in vivo phosphorylation by protein kinase C. In primary cultures of neuronal cells, two of the three neuromodulin spots were observed to be phosphorylated with an apparent preferential phosphorylation of the more acid forms. 相似文献

Activation of the serine/threonine kinase, protein kinase D (PKD/PKC mu) via a phorbol ester/PKC-dependent pathway involves phosphorylation events. The present study identifies five in vivo phosphorylation sites by mass spectrometry, and the role of four of them was investigated by site-directed mutagenesis. Four sites are autophosphorylation sites, the first of which (Ser(916)) is located in the C terminus; its phosphorylation modifies the conformation of the kinase and influences duration of kinase activation but is not required for phorbol ester-mediated activation of PKD. The second autophosphorylation site (Ser(203)) lies in that region of the regulatory domain, which in PKC mu interacts with 14-3-3tau. The last two autophosphorylation sites (Ser(744) and Ser(748)) are located in the activation loop but are only phosphorylated in the isolated PKD-catalytic domain and not in the full-length PKD; they may affect enzyme catalysis but are not involved in the activation of wild-type PKD by phorbol ester. We also present evidence for proteolytic activation of PKD. The fifth site (Ser(255)) is transphosphorylated downstream of a PKC-dependent pathway after in vivo stimulation with phorbol ester. In vivo phorbol ester stimulation of an S255E mutant no longer requires PKC-mediated events. In conclusion, our results show that PKD is a multisite phosphorylated enzyme and suggest that its phosphorylation may be an intricate process that regulates its biological functions in very distinct ways. 相似文献

StarD10 is a dual specificity lipid transfer protein capable of shuttling phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine between membranes in vitro. We now provide evidence that, in vivo, StarD10 is phosphorylated on serine 284. This novel phosphorylation site was identified by tandem mass spectrometry of immunoaffinity-purified StarD10 from lysates of HEK293T cells transiently expressing the protein. In vitro kinase assays revealed that casein kinase II was capable of phosphorylating wild-type StarD10 but not a S284A mutant protein. Interestingly, hypotonic extracts prepared from HEK293T cells expressing the serine to alanine mutant exhibited increased lipid transfer activity compared with those from wild-type StarD10-expressing cells, suggesting that, in a cellular context, phosphorylation on serine 284 negatively regulates StarD10 activity. Because casein kinase II phosphorylation also inhibited lipid transfer activity of the purified recombinant StarD10 protein, inhibition is not dependent on any cellular cofactors. Instead, our data show that C-terminal StarD10 phosphorylation on serine 284 regulates its association with cellular membranes. 相似文献

Importance of protein kinase C targeting for the phosphorylation of its substrate, myristoylated alanine-rich C-kinase substrate 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7

We visualized the translocation of myristoylated alanine-rich protein kinase C substrate (MARCKS) in living Chinese hamster ovary-K1 cells using MARCKS tagged to green fluorescent protein (MARCKS-GFP). MARCKS-GFP was rapidly translocated from the plasma membrane to the cytoplasm after the treatment with phorbol ester, which translocates protein kinase C (PKC) to the plasma membrane. In contrast, PKC activation by hydrogen peroxide, which was not accompanied by PKC translocation, did not alter the intracellular localization of MARCKS-GFP. Non-myristoylated mutant of MARCKS-GFP was distributed throughout the cytoplasm, including the nucleoplasm, and was not translocated by phorbol ester or by hydrogen peroxide. Phosphorylation of wild-type MARCKS-GFP was observed in cells treated with phorbol ester but not with hydrogen peroxide, whereas non-myristoylated mutant of MARCKS-GFP was phosphorylated in cells treated with hydrogen peroxide but not with phorbol ester. Phosphorylation of both MARCKS-GFPs reduced the amount of F-actin. These findings revealed that PKC targeting to the plasma membrane is required for the phosphorylation of membrane-associated MARCKS and that a mutant MARCKS existing in the cytoplasm can be phosphorylated by PKC activated in the cytoplasm without translocation but not by PKC targeted to the membrane. 相似文献

Insulin and phorbol ester stimulate phosphorylation of a 40-kDa protein in adipocyte plasma membranes 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Several substrates of endogenous Ca2+- and phospholipid-sensitive protein kinase have been identified in plasma membranes and cytosol from rat adipocytes. Specifically, Ca2+ stimulates phosphorylation of a 40-kDa protein in isolated plasma membranes, an effect which is further enhanced by the addition of the phorbol ester tetradecanoylphorbol acetate and phospholipase C. The 40-kDa phosphoprotein is also present in the cytosol, and its phosphorylation is stimulated in a Ca2+-dependent manner by phosphatidylserine, diacylglycerol, and phorbol ester. Direct addition of insulin to adipocyte plasma membranes stimulates phosphorylation of the 40-kDa protein in a concentration-dependent manner. Maximal stimulation was observed at 10(-8) M insulin. At 6.7 X 10(-8) M insulin, phosphorylation of the 40-kDa protein was stimulated by 68 +/- 9% (n = 6). Addition of phorbol ester (1, 10, and 100 ng/ml) plus insulin further enhanced the phosphorylation (286 +/- 39, n = 3; 350 +/- 65, n = 4; and 323 +/- 42%, n = 5, stimulation, respectively). Analysis of the 40-kDa phosphoprotein by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis revealed that incubations containing no additions, insulin, and/or phorbol ester all resulted in the generation of a single and apparently identical phosphorylated 40-kDa species. These studies indicate that insulin and Ca2+- and phospholipid-dependent protein kinase stimulate phosphorylation of a 40-kDa protein in adipocyte plasma membranes. 相似文献

The leukocyte adhesion molecule L-selectin has an important role in the initial steps of leukocyte extravasation during inflammation and lymphocyte homing. Its cytoplasmic domain is involved in signal transduction after L-selectin cross-linking and in the regulation of receptor binding activity in response to intracellular signals. However, the signaling events occurring at the level of the receptor are largely unknown. This study therefore addressed the question of whether protein kinases associate with the cytoplasmic domain of the receptor and mediate its phosphorylation. Using a glutathione S-transferase fusion protein of the L-selectin cytoplasmic domain, we isolated a kinase activity from cellular extracts of the human leukemic Jurkat T-cell line that phosphorylated L-selectin on serine residues. This kinase showed characteristics of the protein kinase C (PKC) family. Moreover, the Ca(2+)-independent PKC isozymes theta and iota were found associated with the cytoplasmic domain of L-selectin. Pseudosubstrate inhibitors of these isozymes abolished phosphorylation of the cytoplasmic domain, demonstrating that these kinases are responsible for the phosphorylation. Analysis of proteins specifically bound to the phosphorylated cytoplasmic tail of L-selectin revealed that PKCalpha and -theta are strongly associated with the phosphorylated cytoplasmic domain of L-selectin. Binding of these isozymes to L-selectin was also found in intact cells after phorbol ester treatment inducing serine phosphorylation of the receptor. Furthermore, stimulation of Jurkat T-cells by CD3 cross-linking induced association of PKCalpha and -theta with L-selectin, indicating a role of these kinases in the regulation of L-selectin through the T-cell receptor complex. The phosphorylation-regulated association of PKC isozymes with the cytoplasmic domain of L-selectin indicates an important role of this kinase family in L-selectin signal transduction. 相似文献

Talin is a high molecular weight phosphoprotein that is localized at adhesion plaques. We have found that talin phosphorylation increases 3.0-fold upon exposure of chicken embryo fibroblasts to the tumor-promoting phorbol ester, phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate. Talin isolated from tumor promoter-treated cells is phosphorylated on serine and threonine residues. Vinculin, a 130 kDa talin-binding protein, also exhibits increased phosphorylation in vivo in response to tumor promoter, but to a lesser degree than does talin. Because tumor-promoting phorbol esters augment protein kinase C activity, we have compared the ability of purified protein kinase C to phosphorylate talin and vinculin in vitro. Both talin and vinculin were found to be substrates for protein kinase C; however, talin was phosphorylated to a greater extent than was vinculin. Cleavage of protein kinase C-phosphorylated talin by the calcium-dependent protease (Type II) revealed that while both the resulting 190-200 and 46 kDa proteolytic peptides were phosphorylated, the majority of label was contained within the 46-kDa fragment. Although incubation of chicken embryo fibroblasts with tumor-promoting phorbol ester induces a dramatic increase in talin phosphorylation, we detected no change in the organization of stress fibers and focal contacts in these cells. Exposure of the cells to tumor promoter did, however, result in a loss of actin and talin-rich cell surface elaborations that resemble focal contact precursor structures. 相似文献

Phosphorylation of neuromodulin (GAP-43) by casein kinase II. Identification of phosphorylation sites and regulation by calmodulin. 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7

Neuromodulin (P-57, GAP-43, B-50, F-1) is a neurospecific calmodulin-binding protein believed to play a role in regulation of neurite outgrowth and neuroplasticity. Neuromodulin is phosphorylated by protein kinase C, and this phosphorylation prevents calmodulin from binding to neuromodulin (Alexander, K. A., Cimler, B. M., Meier, K. E. & Storm, D. R. (1987) J. Biol. Chem. 262, 6108-6113). The only other protein kinase known to phosphorylate neuromodulin is casein kinase II (Pisano, M. R., Hegazy, M. G., Reimann, E. M. & Dokas, L. A. (1988) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 155, 1207-1212). Phosphoamino acid analyses revealed that casein kinase II modified serine and threonine residues in both native bovine and recombinant mouse neuromodulin. Two serines located in the C-terminal end of neuromodulin, Ser-192 and Ser-193, were identified as the major casein kinase II phosphorylation sites. Thr-88, Thr-89, or Thr-95 were identified as minor casein kinase II phosphorylation sites. Phosphorylation by casein kinase II did not affect the ability of neuromodulin to bind to calmodulin-Sepharose. However, calmodulin did inhibit the phosphorylation of neuromodulin by casein kinase II with a Ki of 1-2 microM. Calmodulin inhibition of casein kinase II phosphorylation was due to calmodulin binding to neuromodulin rather than to the protein kinase. These data suggest that the minimal secondary and tertiary structure exhibited by neuromodulin may be sufficient to juxtapose its calmodulin-binding domain, located at the N-terminal end, with the neuromodulin casein kinase II phosphorylation sites at the C-terminal end of the protein. We propose that calmodulin regulates casein kinase II phosphorylation of neuromodulin by binding to neuromodulin and sterically hindering the interaction of casein kinase II with its phosphorylation sites on neuromodulin. 相似文献

In vivo and in vitro phosphorylation of murine lymphocyte differentiation antigen CD5 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Ly-1, the murine lymphocyte differentiation antigen CD5, is phosphorylated constitutively in vivo. This phosphorylation is enhanced by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) treatment, but not by concanavalin A, Ca2+ ionophore or dibutyryl cAMP. Prolonged PMA treatment abolished PMA-induced Ly-1 phosphorylation but not constitutive phosphorylation, suggesting that protein kinase C (PKC) is responsible for this enhanced phosphorylation, but not the basal phosphorylation of Ly-1. Ly-1 is phosphorylated by PKC added to membranes, further supporting a role for protein kinase C in the in vivo phosphorylation of Ly-1. 相似文献

G-protein-coupled receptor kinases (GRKs) are important regulators of G-protein-coupled receptor function. Two members of this family L, GRK2 and GRK5 L, have been shown to be substrates for protein kinase C (PKC). Whereas PKC-mediated phosphorylation results in inhibition of GRK5, it increases the activity of GRK2 toward its substrates probably through increased affinity for receptor-containing membranes. We show here that this increase in activity may be caused by relieving a tonic inhibition of GRK2 by calmodulin. In vitro, GRK2 was preferentially phosphorylated by PKC isoforms alpha, gamma, and delta. Two-dimensional peptide mapping of PKCalpha-phosphorylated GRK2 showed a single site of phosphorylation, which was identified as serine 29 by HPLC-MS. A S29A mutant of GRK2 was not phosphorylated by PKC in vitro and showed no phorbol ester-stimulated phosphorylation when transfected into human embryonic kidney (HEK)293 cells. Serine 29 is located in the calmodulin-binding region of GRK2, and binding of calmodulin to GRK2 results in inhibition of kinase activity. This inhibition was almost completely abolished in vitro when GRK2 was phosphorylated by PKC. These data suggest that calmodulin may be an inhibitor of GRK2 whose effects can be abolished with PKC-mediated phosphorylation of GRK2. 相似文献

Phosphorylation of the major leukocyte surface sialoglycoprotein, leukosialin, is increased by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Leukosialin (CD43) is a heavily O-glycosylated membrane glycoprotein present on all leukocytes and on platelets. We found that leukosialin is phosphorylated in erythroid, myeloid, and T-lymphoid cell lines, as well as in platelets and peripheral blood lymphocytes. Leukosialin phosphorylation was increased 2.5-15-fold following phorbol ester treatment. The phosphorylation could be inhibited with the protein kinase C inhibitor staurosporine but not with HA 1004 that inhibits cAMP- or cGMP-dependent protein kinases. The phosphoamino acid analysis showed that serine residues were exclusively phosphorylated, either with or without phorbol ester treatment. Two-dimensional peptide maps of phosphorylated leukosialin from K562 and Jurkat cells gave almost identical patterns. The number of labeled peptides increased after treatment with phorbol ester, indicating that new sites were phosphorylated. The major phosphorylation site on leukosialin was identified as Ser-332 in a region of the cytoplasmic domain located 73 amino acids from the transmembrane portion. 相似文献

A novel serine/threonine protein kinase regulated by phorbol esters and diacylglycerol (named PKD) has been identified. PKD contains a cysteine-rich repeat sequence homologous to that seen in the regulatory domain of protein kinase C (PKC). A bacterially expressed NH2-terminal domain of PKD exhibited high affinity phorbol ester binding activity (Kd = 35 nM). Expression of PKD cDNA in COS cells conferred increased phorbol ester binding to intact cells. The catalytic domain of PKD contains all characteristic sequence motifs of serine protein kinases but shows only a low degree of sequence similarity to PKCs. The bacterially expressed catalytic domain of PKD efficiently phosphorylated the exogenous peptide substrate syntide-2 in serine but did not catalyse significant phosphorylation of a variety of other substrates utilised by PKCs and other major second messenger regulated kinases. PKD expressed in COS cells showed syntide-2 kinase activity that was stimulated by phorbol esters in the presence of phospholipids. We propose that PKD may be a novel component in the transduction of diacylglycerol and phorbol ester signals. 相似文献

Aquaporin-4 (AQP4) is expressed in the perivascular and subpial astrocytes end-feet in mammalian brain, and plays a critical component of an integrated water and potassium homeostasis. Here we examine whether AQP4 is phosphorylated in primary cultured mouse astrocytes. Astrocytes were metabolically labeled with [32P]phosphoric acid, then AQP4 was immunoprecipitated with anti-AQP4 antibody. We observed that AQP4 was constitutively phosphorylated, which is reduced by treatment with protein kinase CK2 inhibitors. To elucidate the phosphorylation of AQP4 by CK2, myc-tagged wild-type or mutant AQP4 was transiently transfected in primary cultured astrocytes. Substitution of Ala residues for four putative CK2 phosphorylation sites in the C terminus abolished the phosphorylation of AQP4. Immunofluorescent microscopy revealed that the quadruple mutant was localized in the Golgi apparatus. These observations indicate that the C-terminal domain of AQP4 is constitutively phosphorylated at least in part by protein kinase CK2 and it is required for Golgi transition. 相似文献

RGS5 is a member of regulators of G protein signaling (RGS) proteins that attenuate heterotrimeric G protein signaling by functioning as GTPase-activating proteins (GAPs). We investigated phosphorylation of RGS5 and the resulting change of its function. In 293T cells, transiently expressed RGS5 was phosphorylated by endogenous protein kinases in the basal state. The phosphorylation was enhanced by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) and endothelin-1 (ET-1), and suppressed by protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitors, H7, calphostin C and staurosporine. These results suggest involvement of PKC in phosphorylation of RGS5. In in vitro experiments, PKC phosphorylated recombinant RGS5 protein at serine residues. RGS5 protein phosphorylated by PKC showed much lower binding capacity for and GAP activity toward Galpha subunits than did the unphosphorylated RGS5. In cells expressing RGS5, the inhibitory effect of RGS5 on ET-1-induced Ca(2+) responses was enhanced by staurosporine. Mass spectrometric analysis of the phosphorylated RGS5 revealed that Ser166 was one of the predominant phosphorylation sites. Substitution of Ser166 by aspartic acid abolished the binding capacity to Galpha subunits and the GAP activity, and markedly reduced the inhibitory effect on ET-1-induced Ca(2+) responses. These results indicate that phosphorylation at Ser166 of RGS5 by PKC causes loss of the function of RGS5 in G protein signaling. Since this serine residue is conserved in RGS domains of many RGS proteins, the phosphorylation at Ser166 by PKC might act as a molecular switch and have functional significance. 相似文献
