The interaction of the brain-specific calmodulin-binding protein kinase C (PKC) substrate, neuromodulin (GAP 43), with membrane phospholipids was studied. Specific binding of neuromodulin to negatively charged phospholipids through electrostatic interactions was demonstrated. Comparison of the binding of neuromodulin to acidic phospholipids with that of neurogranin, a newly characterized calmodulin-binding PKC substrate (Baudier J., Deloulme, J. C., Van Dorsselaer, A., Black, D., and Mathes H. (1991) J. Biol. Chem. 266, 229-237) suggested that the conserved basic amino acid sequence which characterizes the two proteins and which corresponds to the PKC phosphorylation and calmodulin binding domain also serves as phospholipid binding site. In the absence of calmodulin, binding of neuromodulin to phosphatidylserine at low concentration parallels its phosphorylation by PKC, suggesting that formation of a ternary complex between neuromodulin, phosphatidylserine, and PKC is required for optimum neuromodulin phosphorylation. In the presence of calmodulin, the binding of neuromodulin to phosphatidylserine is inhibited, resulting in total inhibition of neuromodulin phosphorylation. Our results suggest that, in vivo, phosphorylation of neuromodulin may not only depend on protein kinase C (PKC)1 activation but also on the accessibility of the neuromodulin phosphorylation domain to activated membrane-bound PKC that could regulated by CaM. 相似文献

Calcium-calmodulin (CaM) binding to the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) has been shown to both inhibit and stimulate receptor activity. CaM binds to the intracellular juxtamembrane (JM) domain (Met645-Phe688) of EGFR. Protein kinase C (PKC) mediated phosphorylation of Thr654 occurs within this domain. CaM binding to the JM domain inhibits PKC phosphorylation and conversely PKC mediated phosphorylation of Thr654 or Glu substitution of Thr654 inhibits CaM binding. A second threonine residue (Thr669) within the JM domain is phosphorylated by the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK). Previous results have shown that CaM interferes with EGFR-induced MAPK activation. If and how phosphorylation of Thr669 affects CaM-EGFR interaction is however not known.In the present study we have used surface plasmon resonance (BIAcore) to study the influence of Thr669 phosphorylation on real time interactions between the intracellular juxtamembrane (JM) domain of EGFR and CaM. The EGFR-JM was expressed as GST fusion proteins in Escherichia coli and phosphorylation was mimicked by generating Glu substitutions of either Thr654 or Thr669. Purified proteins were coupled to immobilized anti-GST antibodies at the sensor surface and increasing concentration of CaM was applied. When mutating Thr654 to Glu654 no specific CaM binding could be detected. However, neither single substitutions of Thr669 (Gly669 or Glu669) nor double mutants Gly654/Gly669 or Gly654/Glu669 influenced the binding of CaM to the EGFR-JM. This clearly shows that PKC may regulate EGF-mediated CaM signalling through phosphorylation of Thr654 whereas phosphorylation of Thr669 seems to play a CaM independent regulatory role. The role of both residues in the EGFR-calmodulin interaction was also studied in silico. Our modelling work supports a scenario where Thr654 from the JM domain interacts with Glu120 in the calmodulin molecule. Phosphorylation of Thr654 or Glu654 substitution creates a repulsive electrostatic force that would diminish CaM binding to the JM domain. These results are in line with the Biacore experiments showing a weak binding of the CaM to the JM domain with Thr654 mutated to Glu. Furthermore, these results provide a hypothesis to how CaM binding to EGFR might both positively and negatively interfere with EGFR-activity. 相似文献

Neurogranin, formerly designated p17 (Baudier, J., Bronner, C., Kligman, D., and Cole, R. D.) (1989) J. Biol. Chem. 264, 1824-1828), a brain-specific in vitro substrate for protein kinase C (PKC), has been purified to homogeneity from bovine forebrain. The purified protein has a molecular mass of 7837.1 +/- 0.5 Da, determined by electrospray mass spectrometry. In the absence of reducing agent, dimers and higher oligomers accumulated. On sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels the protein monomer migrated abnormally with an apparent molecular mass of 15,000-19,000 Da, depending on the percentage of polyacrylamide. The native protein is blocked at its amino terminus. The majority of the primary amino acid sequence was determined following proteolytic and chemical fragmentation. A comparison of the amino acid sequence of neurogranin with that of the brain-specific PKC substrate neuromodulin, revealed a strikingly conserved amino acid sequence AA(X)KIQA-SFRGH(X)(X)RKK(X)K. The two proteins are not related over the rest of their sequences. Neurogranin was shown to be phosphorylated in hippocampal slices incubated with 32Pi and phorbol esters stimulated neurogranin phosphorylation, suggesting that neurogranin is likely to be an in vivo substrate for PKC. In vitro phosphorylation of neurogranin by PKC produced a shift of the isoelectric point of the protein (pI 5.6) to a more acidic value (pI 5.4). Tryptic digestion of the phosphorylated protein yielded a single phosphopeptide having the sequence IQASFR, where the serine residue is the phosphorylated amino acid. This phosphopeptide is part of the conserved sequence shared with neuromodulin and also corresponds to the PKC phosphorylation site on neuromodulin (Apel, E. D., Byford, M. F., Au, D., Walsh, K. A., and Storm, D. R. (1990) Biochemistry 29, 2330-2335). Evidence was obtained suggesting that neurogranin binds to calmodulin in the absence of Ca2+, a feature that also characterizes neuromodulin. We propose that the amino acid sequence shared by neurogranin and neuromodulin reflects a functional relationship between these two proteins and that the consensus sequence represents a conserved PKC phosphorylation site and a calmodulin binding domain that characterizes a class of brain-specific PKC substrates. 相似文献

Neurogranin (Ng) is a 78-amino-acid-long protein concentrated at dendritic spines of forebrain neurons that is involved in synaptic plasticity through the regulation of CaM (calmodulin)-mediated signalling. Ng features a central IQ motif that mediates binding to CaM and is phosphorylated by PKC (protein kinase C). We have analysed the subcellular distribution of Ng and found that it associates to cellular membranes in rat brain. In vitro binding assays revealed that Ng selectively binds to PA (phosphatidic acid) and that this interaction is prevented by CaM and PKC phosphorylation. Using the peptide Ng-(29-47) and a mutant with an internal deletion (Ng-IQless), we have shown that Ng binding to PA and to cellular membranes is mediated by its IQ motif. Ng expressed in NIH-3T3 cells accumulates at peripheral regions of the plasma membrane and localizes at intracellular vesicles that can be clearly visualized following saponin permeabilization. This distribution was affected by PLD (phospholipase D) and PIP5K (phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase) overexpression. Based on these results, we propose that Ng binding to PA may be involved in Ng accumulation at dendritic spines and that Ng could modulate PA signalling in the postsynaptic environment. 相似文献

Calcium-sensitive interaction between calmodulin and modified forms of rat brain neurogranin/RC3 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
Neurogranin (NG) binding of calmodulin (CaM) at its IQ domain is sensitive to Ca(2+) concentration and to modifications by protein kinase C (PKC) and oxidants. The PKC phosphorylation site of NG is within the IQ domain whereas the four oxidant-sensitive Cys residues are outside this region. These Cys residues were oxidized forming two pairs of intramolecular disulfides, and could also be glutathiolated by S-nitrosoglutathione resulting in the incorporation of four glutathiones per NG. Circular dichroism (CD) showed that modification of NG by phosphorylation, oxidation forming intramolecular disulfides, or glutathiolation did not affect the alpha-helical content of this protein. Mutation of the four Cys residues [Cys(-)-NG] to Gly and Ser did not affect the alpha-helical content either. Interaction of CaM with the reduced (red)-, glutathiolated (GS)-, or Cys(-)-NG in the Ca(2+)-free solution resulted in an increase in the alpha-helicity determined by their CD spectra, but relatively little change was seen with the oxidized NG (ox-NG) or phosphorylated NG (PO(4)-NG). The binding affinities between the various modified forms of NG and CaM were determined by CD spectrometry and sedimentation equilibrium: their affinities were Cys(-)-NG > red-NG, GS-NG > ox-NG > PO(4)-NG. Unlike Cys(-)-, red-, and GS-NG, neither ox- nor PO(4)-NG bound to a CaM-affinity column. Thus, both oxidation of NG to form intramolecular disulfides and phosphorylation of NG by PKC are effective in modulating the intracellular level of CaM. These results indicate that modification of NG to form intramolecular disulfides outside the IQ domain provides an alternative mechanism for regulation of its binding affinity to CaM. 相似文献

Regulation of protein dephosphorylation by cytoplasmic Ca(2+) levels and calmodulin (CaM) is well established and considered to be mediated solely by calcineurin. Yet, recent identification of protein phosphatases with EF-hand domains (PPEF/rdgC) point to the existence of another group of Ca(2+)-dependent protein phosphatases. We have recently hypothesised that PPEF/rdgC phosphatases might possess CaM-binding sites of the IQ-type in their N-terminal domains. We now employed yeast two-hybrid system and surface plasmon resonance (SPR) to test this hypothesis. We found that entire human PPEF2 interacts with CaM in the in vivo tests and that its N-terminal domain binds to CaM in a Ca(2+)-dependent manner with nanomolar affinity in vitro. The fragments corresponding to the second exons of PPEF1 and PPEF2, containing the IQ motifs, are sufficient for specific Ca(2+)-dependent interaction with CaM both in vivo and in vitro. These findings demonstrate the existence of mammalian CaM-binding protein Ser/Thr phosphatases distinct from calcineurin and suggest that the activity of PPEF phosphatases may be controlled by Ca(2+) in a dual way: via C-terminal Ca(2+)-binding domain and via interaction of the N-terminal domain with CaM. 相似文献

Structural and dynamic characterization of a neuron-specific protein kinase C substrate,neurogranin 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Neurogranin/RC3 is a neuron-specific, Ca(2+)-sensitive calmodulin binding protein and a specific protein kinase C substrate. Neurogranin may function to regulate calmodulin levels at specific sites in neurons through phosphorylation at serine residue within its IQ motif, oxidation outside the IQ motif, or changes in local cellular Ca(2+) concentration. To gain insight into the functional role of neurogranin in the regulation of calmodulin-dependent activities, we investigated the structure and dynamics of a full-length rat neurogranin protein with 78 amino acids using triple resonance NMR techniques. In the absence of calmodulin or PKC, neurogranin exists in an unfolded form as evidenced by high backbone mobility and the absence of long-range nuclear Overhauser effect (NOE). Analyses of the chemical shifts (13)C(alpha), (13)C(beta), and (1)H(alpha) reveal the presence of a local alpha-helical structure for the region between residues G25-A42. Three-bond (1)H(N)-(1)H(alpha) coupling constants support the finding that the sequence between residues G25 and A42 populates a non-native helical structure in the unfolded neurogranin. Homonuclear NOE results are consistent with the conclusions drawn from chemical shifts and coupling constants. (15)N relaxation data indicate motional restrictions on a nanosecond time scale in the region from D15 to S48. Spectral densities and order parameters data further confirm that the unfolded neurogranin exists in conformation with residual secondary structures. The medium mobility of the nascent helical region may help to reduce the entropy loss when neurogranin binds to its targets, but the complex between neurogranin and calmodulin is not stable enough for structural determination by NMR. Calmodulin titration of neurogranin indicates that residues D15-G52 of neurogranin undergo significant structural changes upon binding to calmodulin. 相似文献

A 25-amino acid peptide, containing the four protein kinase C (PKC) phosphorylation sites and the calmodulin (CaM) binding domain of the myristoylated alanine-rich C kinase substrate (MARCKS) protein, has been synthesized and used to determine the effects of phosphorylation on its binding and regulation of CaM. PKC phosphorylation of this peptide (3.0 mol of Pi/mol of peptide) produced a 200-fold decrease in its affinity for CaM. PKC phosphorylation of the peptide resulted in its dissociation from CaM over a time course that paralleled the phosphorylation of 1 mol of serine/mol of peptide. The peptide inhibited CaM's binding to myosin light chain kinase and CaM's stimulation of phosphodiesterase and calcineurin. PKC phosphorylation of the peptide resulted in a rapid release of bound CaM, allowing its subsequent binding to myosin light chain kinase (t1/2 = 1.6 min), stimulation of phosphodiesterase (t1/2 = 1.2 min) and calcineurin (t1/2 = 1.7 min). Partially purified MARCKS protein produced a similar inhibition of CaM-phosphodiesterase which was reversed by PKC phosphorylation. PKC phosphorylation of the peptide occurred primarily at serine 8 and serine 12, and phosphorylation of serine 12 regulated peptide affinity for CaM. Thus, PKC phosphorylation of the peptide and the MARCKS protein results in the rapid release of CaM and the subsequent activation of CaM-dependent enzymes. This process might allow for interplay between PKC and CaM-dependent signal transduction pathways. 相似文献

We have characterized a phosphoserine binding domain in the coactivator CREB-binding protein (CBP) which interacts with the protein kinase A-phosphorylated, and hence activated, form of the cyclic AMP-responsive factor CREB. The CREB binding domain, referred to as KIX, is alpha helical and binds to an unstructured kinase-inducible domain in CREB following phosphorylation of CREB at Ser-133. Phospho-Ser-133 forms direct contacts with residues in KIX, and these contacts are further stabilized by hydrophobic residues in the kinase-inducible domain which flank phospho-Ser-133. Like the src homology 2 (SH2) domains which bind phosphotyrosine-containing peptides, phosphoserine 133 appears to coordinate with a single arginine residue (Arg-600) in KIX which is conserved in the CBP-related protein P300. Since mutagenesis of Arg-600 to Gln severely reduces CREB-CBP complex formation, our results demonstrate that, as in the case of tyrosine kinase pathways, signal transduction through serine/threonine kinase pathways may also require protein interaction motifs which are capable of recognizing phosphorylated amino acids. 相似文献

Metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype 7 (mGluR7) is coupled to the inhibitory cyclic AMP cascade and is selectively activated by a glutamate analogue, L-2-amino-4-phosphonobutyrate. Among L-2-amino-4-phosphonobutyrate-sensitive mGluR subtypes, mGluR7 is highly concentrated at the presynaptic terminals and is thought to play an important role in modulation of glutamatergic synaptic transmission by presynaptic inhibition of glutamate release. To gain further insight into the intracellular signaling mechanisms of mGluR7, with the aid of glutathione S-transferase fusion affinity chromatography, we attempted to identify proteins that interact with the intracellular carboxyl terminus of mGluR7. Here, we report that calmodulin (CaM) directly binds to the carboxyl terminus of mGluR7 in a Ca(2+)-dependent manner. The CaM-binding domain is located immediately following the 7th transmembrane segment. We also show that the CaM-binding domain of mGluR7 is phosphorylated by protein kinase C (PKC). This phosphorylation is inhibited by the binding of Ca(2+)/CaM to the receptor. Conversely, the Ca(2+)/CaM binding is prevented by PKC phosphorylation. Collectively, these results suggest that mGluR7 serves to cross-link the cyclic AMP, Ca(2+), and PKC phosphorylation signal transduction cascades. 相似文献

GluA1 (formerly GluR1) AMPA receptor subunit phosphorylation at Ser-831 is an early biochemical marker for long-term potentiation and learning. This site is a substrate for Ca(2+)/calmodulin (CaM)-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) and protein kinase C (PKC). By directing PKC to GluA1, A-kinase anchoring protein 79 (AKAP79) facilitates Ser-831 phosphorylation and makes PKC a more potent regulator of GluA1 than CaMKII. PKC and CaM bind to residues 31-52 of AKAP79 in a competitive manner. Here, we demonstrate that common CaMKII inhibitors alter PKC and CaM interactions with AKAP79(31-52). Most notably, the classical CaMKII inhibitors KN-93 and KN-62 potently enhanced the association of CaM to AKAP79(31-52) in the absence (apoCaM) but not the presence of Ca(2+). In contrast, apoCaM association to AKAP79(31-52) was unaffected by the control compound KN-92 or a mechanistically distinct CaMKII inhibitor (CaMKIINtide). In vitro studies demonstrated that KN-62 and KN-93, but not the other compounds, led to apoCaM-dependent displacement of PKC from AKAP79(31-52). In the absence of CaMKII activation, complementary cellular studies revealed that KN-62 and KN-93, but not KN-92 or CaMKIINtide, inhibited PKC-mediated phosphorylation of GluA1 in hippocampal neurons as well as AKAP79-dependent PKC-mediated augmentation of recombinant GluA1 currents. Buffering cellular CaM attenuated the ability of KN-62 and KN-93 to inhibit AKAP79-anchored PKC regulation of GluA1. Therefore, by favoring apoCaM binding to AKAP79, KN-62 and KN-93 derail the ability of AKAP79 to efficiently recruit PKC for regulation of GluA1. Thus, AKAP79 endows PKC with a pharmacological profile that overlaps with CaMKII. 相似文献

Protein-protein interactions are thought to modulate the efficiency and specificity of Ca(2+)/calmodulin (CaM)-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) signaling in specific subcellular compartments. Here we show that the F-actin-binding protein α-actinin targets CaMKIIα to F-actin in cells by binding to the CaMKII regulatory domain, mimicking CaM. The interaction with α-actinin is blocked by CaMKII autophosphorylation at Thr-306, but not by autophosphorylation at Thr-305, whereas autophosphorylation at either site blocks Ca(2+)/CaM binding. The binding of α-actinin to CaMKII is Ca(2+)-independent and activates the phosphorylation of a subset of substrates in vitro. In intact cells, α-actinin selectively stabilizes CaMKII association with GluN2B-containing glutamate receptors and enhances phosphorylation of Ser-1303 in GluN2B, but inhibits CaMKII phosphorylation of Ser-831 in glutamate receptor GluA1 subunits by competing for activation by Ca(2+)/CaM. These data show that Ca(2+)-independent binding of α-actinin to CaMKII differentially modulates the phosphorylation of physiological targets that play key roles in long-term synaptic plasticity. 相似文献

Myristoylated alanine-rich C kinase substrate (MARCKS) is a prominent protein kinase C (PKC) substrate that is targeted to the plasma membrane by an amino-terminal myristoyl group. In its nonphosphorylated form, MARCKS cross-links F-actin and binds calmodulin (CaM) reciprocally. However, upon phosphorylation by PKC, MARCKS releases the actin or CaM. MARCKS may therefore act as a CaM sink in resting cells and regulate CaM availability during cell activation. We have demonstrated previously that thrombin-induced myosin light chain (MLC) phosphorylation and increased monolayer permeability in bovine pulmonary artery endothelial cells (BPAEC) require both PKC- and CaM-dependent pathways. We therefore decided to investigate the phosphorylation of MARCKS in BPAEC to ascertain whether this occurs in a temporally relevant manner to participate in the thrombin-induced events. MARCKS is phosphorylated in response to thrombin with a time course similar to that seen with MLC. As expected, MARCKS is also phosphorylated by phorbol 12-myristate 13 acetate (PMA), a PKC activator, but with a slower onset and more prolonged duration. Bradykinin also enhances MARCKS phosphorylation in BPAEC, but histamine does not. MARCKS is distributed evenly between the membrane and cytosol in BPAEC, and neither thrombin nor PMA caused significant translocation of the protein. Specific PKC inhibitors attenuated MARCKS phosphorylation by either thrombin or PMA. Since thrombin-induced MLC phosphorylation is also attenuated by these inhibitors, MARCKS may be involved in MLC kinase activation and subsequent BPAEC contraction. W7, a CaM antagonist, enhances the phosphorylation of MARCKS. This was expected since CaM binding to MARCKS has been shown to decrease MARCKS phosphorylation by PKC. On the other hand, tyrosine kinase inhibitors, genistein and tyrphostin, attenuate MARCKS phosphorylation but have no effect on MLC phosphorylation, suggesting that MARCKS may be phosphorylated by kinases other than PKC. Phosphorylation of MARCKS outside the PKC phosphorylation domain would not be expected to induce the release of CaM. These data provide support for the hypothesis that MARCKS may serve as a regulator of CaM availability in BPAEC. © 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

Calcium-/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaM kinase II), a decoder of Ca(2+) signals, and cytosolic phospholipase A(2) (cPLA(2)), an enzyme involved in arachidonate release, are involved in many physiological and pathophysiological processes. Activation of CaM kinase II in norepinephrine-stimulated vascular smooth muscle cells leads to activation of cPLA(2) and arachidonic acid release. Surface plasmon resonance, mass spectrometry, and kinetic studies show that CaM kinase II binds to cPLA(2) resulting in cPLA(2) phosphorylation on Ser-515 and an increase in its enzymatic activity. Phosphopeptide mapping studies with cPLA(2) from norepinephrine-stimulated smooth muscle cells indicates that phosphorylation of cPLA(2) on Ser-515, but not on Ser-505 or Ser-727, occurs in vivo. This novel signaling pathway for arachidonate release is shown to be cPLA(2)-dependent by use of a recently described and highly selective inhibitor of this enzyme. 相似文献

Microtubule associated protein tau is abnormally hyperphosphorylated in Alzheimer disease (AD) brain. To investigate the role of protein kinases involved in this lesion, metabolically active slices made from brains of adult rats were treated with or without various specific kinase activators in oxygenated artificial cerebrospinal fluid. The basal kinase activities of protein kinase-A (PKA), CaM Kinase II and GSK-3 were stimulated more than two-fold by isoproterenol, bradykinin and wortmannin, respectively. We found that cdk5 activity was co-stimulated with PKA by isoproterenol. Sequential activation of PKA (+cdk5), CaM Kinase II and GSK-3 produced hyperphosphorylation of tau at Ser-198/Ser-199/Ser-202, Ser-214, Thr-231/Ser-235, Ser-262, Ser-396/Ser-404 and Ser-422 sites. Like AD P-tau, the P-tau from brain slices bound to normal tau and its binding to tubulin was inhibited. These studies suggest that PKA, cdk5, CaM Kinase II and GSK-3 are involved in the regulation of phosphorylation of tau and that AD-type phosphorylation of tau is probably a product of the synergistic action of two or more of these kinases. 相似文献

Ionotropic glutamate receptors mediate the majority of excitatory synaptic transmission in the brain and are thought to be involved in learning and memory formation. The activity of alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole propionate (AMPA)-type glutamate receptors can be regulated by direct phosphorylation of their subunits, which affects the electrophysiological properties of the receptor, and the receptor association with numerous proteins that modulate membrane traffic and synaptic targeting of the receptor. In the present study we investigated the association of protein kinase C (PKC) gamma isoform with the GluR4 AMPA receptor subunit. PKC gamma was co-immunoprecipitated with GluR4 AMPA receptor subunit in rat cerebellum and in cultured chick retina cell extracts, and immunocytochemistry experiments showed co-localization of GluR4 and PKC gamma in cultured chick retinal neurons. Pull-down assays showed that native PKC gamma binds the GluR4 C-terminal membrane-proximal region, and recombinant PKC gamma was retained by GST-GluR4 C-terminal fusion protein, suggesting that the kinase binds directly to GluR4. Furthermore, GST-GluR4 C-terminal protein was phosphorylated on GluR4 Ser-482 by bound kinases, retained by the fusion protein, including PKC gamma. The GluR4 C-terminal segment that interacts with PKC gamma, which lacks the PKC phosphorylation sites, inhibited histone H1 phosphorylation by PKC, to the same extent as the PKC pseudosubstrate peptide 19-31, indicating that PKC gamma bound to GluR4 preferentially phosphorylates GluR4 to the detriment of other substrates. Additionally, PKC gamma expression in GluR4 transfected human embryonic kidney 293T cells increased the amount of plasma membrane-associated GluR4. Our results suggest that PKC gamma binds directly to GluR4, thereby modulating the function of GluR4-containing AMPA receptors. 相似文献

A 20-kDa DNA-binding protein that binds the AT-rich sequences within the promoters of the brain-specific protein kinase C (PKC) gamma and neurogranin/RC3 genes has been characterized as chromosomal nonhistone high-mobility-group protein (HMG)-I. This protein is a substrate of PKC alpha, beta, gamma, and delta but is poorly phosphorylated by PKC epsilon and zeta. Two major (Ser44 and Ser64) and four minor phosphorylation sites have been identified. The extents of phosphorylation of Ser44 and Ser64 were 1:1, whereas those of the four minor sites all together were <30% of the major one. These PKC phosphorylation sites are distinct from those phosphorylated by cdc2 kinase, which phosphorylates Thr53 and Thr78. Phosphorylation of HMG-I by PKC resulted in a reduction of DNA-binding affinity by 28-fold as compared with 12-fold caused by the phosphorylation with cdc2 kinase. HMG-I could be additively phosphorylated by cdc2 kinase and PKC, and the resulting doubly phosphorylated protein exhibited a >100-fold reduction in binding affinity. The two cdc2 kinase phosphorylation sites of HMG-I are adjacent to the N terminus of two of the three predicted DNA-binding domains. In comparison, one of the major PKC phosphorylation sites, Ser64, is adjacent to the C terminus of the second DNA-binding domain, whereas Ser44 is located within the spanning region between the first and second DNA-binding domains. The current results suggest that phosphorylation of the mammalian HMG-I by PKC alone or in combination with cdc2 kinase provides an effective mechanism for the regulation of HMG-I function. 相似文献

We report the isolation of a cDNA clone encoding a 60-kDa protein termed fragmin60 that cross-reacts with fragmin antibodies. Unlike other gelsolin-related proteins, fragmin60 contains a unique N-terminal domain that shows similarity with C2 domains of aczonin, protein kinase C, and synaptotagmins. The fragmin60 C2 domain binds three calcium ions, one with nanomolar affinity and two with micromolar affinity. Actin binding by fragmin60 requires higher calcium concentrations than does binding of actin by a fragmin60 mutant lacking the C2 domain, suggesting that the C2 domain secures the actin binding moiety in a conformation preventing actin binding at low calcium concentrations. The fragmin60 C2 domain does not bind phospholipids but interacts with the endogenous homologue of Saccharomyces cerevisiae S-phase kinase-associated protein (Skp1), as shown by pull-down assays and co-expression in mammalian cells. Recombinant fragmin60 promotes in vitro phosphorylation of actin Thr-203 by the actin-fragmin kinase. We further show that in vivo phosphorylation of actin in the fragmin60-actin complex occurs in sclerotia, a dormant stage of Physarum development, as well as in plasmodia. Our findings indicate that we have cloned a novel type of gelsolin-related actin-binding protein that is involved in controlling regulation of actin phosphorylation in vivo. 相似文献

Myosin-V, an unconventional myosin, has two notable structural features: (i) a regulatory neck domain having six IQ motifs that bind calmodulin and light chains, and (ii) a structurally distinct tail domain likely responsible for its specific intracellular interactions. Myosin-V copurifies with synaptic vesicles via its tail domain, which also is a substrate for calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II. We demonstrate here that myosin-V coimmunoprecipitates with CaM-kinase II from a Triton X-100-solubilized fraction of isolated nerve terminals. The purified proteins also coimmunoprecipitate from dilute solutions and bind in overlay experiments on Western blots. The binding region on myosin-V was mapped to its proximal and medial tail domains. Autophosphorylated CaM-kinase II binds to the tail domain of myosin-V with an apparent Kd of 7.7 nM. Surprisingly, myosin-V activates CaM-kinase II activity in a Ca2+-dependent manner, without the need for additional CaM. The apparent activation constants for the autophosphorylation of CaM-kinase II were 10 and 26 nM, respectively, for myosin-V versus CaM. The maximum incorporation of 32P into CaM-kinase II activated by myosin-V was twice that for CaM, suggesting that myosin-V binding to CaM-kinase II entails alterations in kinetic and/or phosphorylation site parameters. These data suggest that myosin-V, a calmodulin-carrying myosin, binds to and delivers CaM to CaM-kinase II, a calmodulin-dependent enzyme. 相似文献

For the phosphorylation state of microtubule-associated protein, tau plays a pivotal role in regulating microtubule networks in neurons. Tau promotes the assembly and stabilization of microtubules. The potential for tau to bind to microtubules is down-regulated after local phosphorylation. When we investigated the effects of PKN activation on tau phosphorylation, we found that PKN triggers disruption of the microtubule array both in vitro and in vivo and predominantly phosphorylates tau in microtubule binding domains (MBDs). PKN has a catalytic domain highly homologous to protein kinase C (PKC), a kinase that phosphorylates Ser-313 (= Ser-324, the number used in this study) in MBDs. Thus, we identified the phosphorylation sites of PKN and PKC subtypes (PKC-alpha, -betaI, -betaII, -gamma, -delta, -epsilon, -zeta, and -lambda) in MBDs. PKN phosphorylates Ser-258, Ser-320, and Ser-352, although all PKC subtypes phosphorylate Ser-258, Ser-293, Ser-324, and Ser-352. There is a PKN-specific phosphorylation site, Ser-320, in MBDs. HIA3, a novel phosphorylation-dependent antibody recognizing phosphorylated tau at Ser-320, showed immunoreactivity in Chinese hamster ovary cells expressing tau and the active form of PKN, but not in Chinese hamster ovary cells expressing tau and the inactive form of PKN. The immunoreactivity for phosphorylated tau at Ser-320 increased in the presence of a phosphatase inhibitor, FK506 treatment, which means that calcineurin (protein phosphatase 2B) may be involved in dephosphorylating tau at Ser-320 site. We also noted that PKN reduces the phosphorylation recognized by the phosphorylation-dependent antibodies AT8, AT180, and AT270 in vivo. Thus PKN serves as a regulator of microtubules by specific phosphorylation of tau, which leads to disruption of tubulin assembly. 相似文献
