We have examined the activity and substrate specificity of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae Hrr25p and the Schizosaccharomyces pombe Hhp1, Hhp2, and Cki1 protein kinase isoforms. These four gene products are isotypes of casein kinase I (CKI), and the sequence of these protein kinases predicts that they are protein serine/threonine kinases. However, each of these four protein kinases, when expressed in Escherichia coli in an active form, was recognized by anti-phosphotyrosine antibodies. Phosphoamino acid analysis of 32P-labeled proteins showed phosphorylation on serine, threonine, and tyrosine residues. The E. coli produced forms of Hhp1, Hhp2, and Cki1 were autophosphorylated on tyrosine, and both Hhp1 and Hhp2 were capable of phosphorylating the tyrosine-protein kinase synthetic peptide substrate polymer poly-E4Y1. Immune complex protein kinases assays from S. pombe cells showed that Hhp1-containing precipitates were associated with a protein-tyrosine kinase activity, and the Hhp1 present in these immunoprecipitates was phosphorylated on tyrosine residues. Although dephosphorylation of Hhp1 and Hhp2 by Ser/Thr phosphatase had little effect on the specific activity, tyrosine dephosphorylation of Hhp1 and Hhp2 caused a 1.8-to 3.1-fold increase in the Km for poly-E4Y1 and casein. These data demonstrate that four different CKI isoforms from two different yeasts are capable of protein-tyrosine kinase activity and encode dual-specificity protein kinases.  相似文献

Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase phosphatase (CaMKPase) dephosphorylates and regulates multifunctional Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent protein kinases. In order to elucidate the mechanism of substrate recognition by CaMKPase, we chemically synthesized a variety of phosphopeptide analogs and carried out kinetic analysis using them as CaMKPase substrates. This is the first report using systematically synthesized phosphopeptides as substrates for kinetic studies on substrate specificities of protein Ser/Thr phosphatases. CaMKPase was shown to be a protein Ser/Thr phosphatase having a strong preference for a phospho-Thr residue. A Pro residue adjacent to the dephosphorylation site on the C-terminal side and acidic clusters around the dephosphorylation site had detrimental effects on dephosphorylation by CaMKPase. Deletion analysis of a model substrate peptide revealed that the minimal length of the substrate peptide was only 2 to 3 amino acid residues including the dephosphorylation site. The residues on the C-terminal side of the dephosphorylation site were not essential for dephosphorylation, whereas the residue adjacent to the dephosphorylation site on the N-terminal side was essential. Ala-scanning analysis suggested that CaMKPase did not recognize a specific motif around the dephosphorylation site. Myosin light chain phosphorylated by protein kinase C and Erk2 phosphorylated by MEK1 were poor substrates for CaMKPase, while a synthetic phosphopeptide corresponding to the sequence around the phosphorylation site of the former was not dephosphorylated by CaMKPase but that of the latter was fairly good substrate. These data suggest that substrate specificity of CaMKPase is determined by higher-order structure of the substrate protein rather than by the primary structure around its dephosphorylation site. Use of phosphopeptide substrates also revealed that poly-L-lysine, an activator for CaMKPase, activated the enzyme mainly through increase in the V(max) values.  相似文献

Phosphate groups as substrate determinants for casein kinase I action   总被引:22,自引:0,他引:22  
Phosphorylation of rabbit muscle glycogen synthase by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase has been shown to enhance subsequent phosphorylation by casein kinase I (Flotow, H., and Roach, P. J. (1989) J. Biol. Chem. 264, 9126-9128). In the present study, synthetic peptides based on the sequences of the four phosphorylated regions in muscle glycogen synthase were used to probe the role of substrate phosphorylation in casein kinase I action. With all four peptides, prior phosphorylation significantly stimulated phosphorylation by casein kinase I. A series of peptides was synthesized based on the NH2-terminal glycogen synthase sequence PLSRTLS7VSS10LPGL, in which phosphorylation at Ser7 is required for modification of Ser10 by casein kinase I. The spacing between the P-Ser and the acceptor Ser was varied to have 1, 2, or 3 intervening residues. The peptide with a 2-residue spacing (-S(P)-X-X-S-) was by far the best casein kinase I substrate. When the P-Ser residue at Ser7 was replaced with P-Thr, the resulting peptide was still a casein kinase I substrate. However, substitution of Asp or Glu residues at Ser7 led to peptides that were not phosphorylated by casein kinase I. Phosphorylation of one of the other peptides showed that Thr could also be the phosphate acceptor. From these results, we propose that there are substrates for casein kinase I for which prior phosphorylation is a critical determinant of protein kinase action. In these instances, an important recognition motif for casein kinase I appears to be -S(P)/T(P)-Xn-S/T- with n = 2 much more effective than n = 1 or n = 3. Thus, casein kinase I may be involved in hierarchal substrate phosphorylation schemes in which its activity is controlled by the phosphorylation state of its substrates.  相似文献

Mammalian Chk1 and Chk2 are two Ser/Thr effector kinases that play critical roles in DNA damage-activated cell cycle checkpoint signaling pathways downstream of ataxia telangiectasia-mutated and ataxia telangiectasia-related. Endogenous substrates have been identified for human hCds1/Chk2 and Chk1; however, the sequences surrounding the substrate residues appear unrelated, and consensus substrate motifs for the two Ser/Thr kinases remain unknown. We have utilized peptide library analyses to develop specific, highly preferred substrate motifs for hCds1/Chk2 and Chk1. The optimal motifs are similar for both kinases and most closely resemble the previously identified Chk1 and hCds1/Chk2 substrate target sequences in Cdc25C and Cdc25A, the regulation of which plays an important role in S and G(2)M arrest. Essential residues required for the definition of the optimal motifs were also identified. Utilization of the peptides to assay the substrate specificities and catalytic activities of Chk1 and hCds1/Chk2 revealed substantial differences between the two Ser/Thr kinases. Structural modeling analyses of the peptides into the Chk1 catalytic cleft were consistent with Chk1 kinase assays defining substrate suitability. The library-derived substrate preferences were applied in a genome-wide search program, revealing novel targets that might serve as substrates for hCds1/Chk2 or Chk1 kinase activity.  相似文献

This study characterizes the insulin-activated serine/threonine protein kinases in H4 hepatoma cells active on a 37-residue synthetic peptide (called the SKAIPS peptide) corresponding to a putative autoinhibitory domain in the carboxyl-terminal tail of the p70 S6 kinase as well as on recombinant p70 S6 kinase. Three peaks of insulin-stimulated protein kinase active on both these substrates are identified as two (possibly three) isoforms of the 40-45-kDa erk/microtubule-associated protein (MAP)-2 kinase family and a 150-kDa form of cdc2. Although distinguishable in their substrate specificity, these protein kinases together with the p54 MAP-2 kinase share a major common specificity determinant reflected in the SKAIPS peptide: the requirement for a proline residue immediately carboxyl-terminal to the site of Ser/Thr phosphorylation. In addition, however, at least one peak of insulin-stimulated protein kinase active on recombinant p70, but not on the SKAIPS peptide, is present although not yet identified. MFP/cdc2 phosphorylates both rat liver p70 S6 kinase and recombinant p70 S6 kinase exclusively at a set of Ser/Thr residues within the putative autoinhibitory (SKAIPS peptide) domain. erk/MAP kinase does not phosphorylate rat liver p70 S6 kinase, but readily phosphorylates recombinant p70 S6 kinase at sites both within and in addition to those encompassed by the SKAIPS peptide sequences. Although the tryptic 32P-peptides bearing the cdc2 and erk/MAP kinase phosphorylation sites co-migrate with a subset of the sites phosphorylated in situ in insulin-stimulated cells, phosphorylation of the p70 S6 kinase by these proline-directed protein kinases in vitro does not reproducibly activate p70 S6 kinase activity. Thus, one or more erk/MAP kinases and cdc2 are likely to participate in the insulin-induced phosphorylation of the p70 S6 kinase. In addition to these kinases, however, phosphorylation of the p70 S6 kinase by other as yet unidentified protein kinases is necessary to recapitulate the multisite phosphorylation required for activation of the p70 S6 kinase.  相似文献

The casein kinase I (CKI) family consists of widely distributed monomeric Ser/Thr protein kinases that have a preference for acidic substrates. Four mammalian isoforms are known. A full length cDNA encoding the CKI alpha isoform was cloned from a rabbit skeletal muscle cDNA library and was utilized to construct a bacterial expression vector. Active CKI alpha was expressed in Escherichia coli as a polypeptide of Mr 36,000. The protein kinase phosphorylated casein, phosvitin and a specific peptide substrate (D4). The enzyme was inhibited by the isoquinolinesulfonamide CKI-7, half-maximally at 70 microM. Heparin inhibited phosphorylation of the D4 peptide or phosvitin by CKI alpha. Polylysine activated when the D4 peptide was the substrate but had no effect on phosvitin phosphorylation. It is becoming clear that the individual CKI isoforms have different kinetic properties and hence could have quite distinct cellular functions.  相似文献

Mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases bind tightly to many of their physiologically relevant substrates. We have identified a new subfamily of murine serine/threonine kinases, whose members, MAP kinase-interacting kinase 1 (Mnk1) and Mnk2, bind tightly to the growth factor-regulated MAP kinases, Erk1 and Erk2. MNK1, but not Mnk2, also binds strongly to the stress-activated kinase, p38. MNK1 complexes more strongly with inactive than active Erk, implying that Mnk and Erk may dissociate after mitogen stimulation. Erk and p38 phosphorylate MNK1 and Mnk2, which stimulates their in vitro kinase activity toward a substrate, eukaryotic initiation factor-4E (eIF-4E). Initiation factor eIF-4E is a regulatory phosphoprotein whose phosphorylation is increased by insulin in an Erk-dependent manner. In vitro, MNK1 rapidly phosphorylates eIF-4E at the physiologically relevant site, Ser209. In cells, Mnk1 is post-translationally modified and enzymatically activated in response to treatment with either peptide growth factors, phorbol esters, anisomycin or UV. Mitogen- and stress-mediated MNK1 activation is blocked by inhibitors of MAP kinase kinase 1 (Mkk1) and p38, demonstrating that Mnk1 is downstream of multiple MAP kinases. MNK1 may define a convergence point between the growth factor-activated and one of the stress-activated protein kinase cascades and is a candidate to phosphorylate eIF-4E in cells.  相似文献

A novel peptide with multiple phosphorylation sites, which we designated as multide, was developed to detect a wide variety of protein kinases in crude cell extracts. Multide, KKRKSSLRRWSPLTPRQMSFDC, has been designed to contain consensus sequences for various Ser/Thr protein kinases including cAMP-dependent protein kinase, protein kinase C, MAP kinases, and Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent protein kinases in a single peptide. In-gel protein kinase assay using multide was found to be very useful for analyzing the activities of protein kinases that are altered in response to various extracellular stimuli. The substrate specificities of the protein kinases thus detected were further determined by using five multide analogs with different phosphorylation sites.  相似文献

Phosphorylation of human vescicle docking protein p115 at Ser-942 (homologous to Ser-940 in rat p115) promotes its dissociation from the Golgi membrane. Here we show that a peptide encompassing the 934--950 sequence of p115 is unaffected or poorly phosphorylated by a variety of Ser/Thr protein kinases with the notable exception of the Golgi apparatus casein kinase (G-CK) which phosphorylates it with an efficiency comparable to that of its optimal peptide substrates. In contrast phosphorylation of the p115 peptide by protein kinase CK2 is negligible compared to that of the specific peptide substrates of this kinase. Phosphorylation by G-CK is abolished if a conserved cluster of acidic residues at position between n + 4 and n + 9 (EDDDDE) is replaced by a neutral stretch (GAGAGA). These data strongly support the view that G-CK but not the other two classes of ubiquitous "casein kinases" (CK1 and CK2) is the natural phosphorylating agent of p115.  相似文献

An hepatic protein kinase that phosphorylates microtubule-associated protein 2 (MAP-2) on Ser/Thr residues is markedly activated after intraperitoneal injection of cycloheximide in the rat. The enzyme has been purified greater than 10,000-fold to near homogeneity and corresponds to a 54-kDa polypeptide, based on auto-phosphorylation, renaturation of activity from sodium dodecyl sulfate gels, and gel filtration. The protein kinase activity is unaffected by prior autophosphorylation, Ca2+, diacylglycerol and phospholipids, cyclic nucleotides, staurosporine, and protein kinase inhibitor, but can be totally and specifically deactivated by the Ser/Thr protein phosphatase 2A. The enzyme is inhibited completely but reversible by transition metals and p-chloromercuribenzoate, and is strongly stimulated by poly-L-lysine toward most, but not all protein substrates. The activity of the cycloheximide-stimulated MAP-2 kinase (pp54 MAP-2 kinase) toward potential polypeptide substrates was compared to that of an insulin-stimulated MAP-2 kinase (pp42 MAP-2 kinase). Although both MAP-2 kinases exhibited little or no ability to phosphorylate histones and casein, the two kinases had a distinguishable substrate specificity. At comparable MAP-2 phosphorylating activities, pp42 MAP-2 kinase, but not pp54 MAP-2 kinase, phosphorylated and activated the Xenopus S6 protein kinase II. Moreover, pp42 MAP-2 kinase phosphorylated myelin basic protein at 10-12-fold higher rates than did pp54 MAP-2 kinase. Cycloheximide-activated pp54 MAP-2 protein kinase appears to be a previously uncharacterized protein kinase that is itself regulated through Ser/Thr phosphorylation and, perhaps, polypeptide regulators with basic domains. The identity of the upstream regulatory elements and the native substrates remain to be established.  相似文献

Cyclic nucleotide independent protein kinases preferring casein as in vitro substrates were resolved into four distinct species. Only one of the enzymes (CKII) was retained by DEAE-cellulose, whereas the three other enzymes (CKI-1, CKI-2, and CKI-3) were absorbed to CM-Sephadex, eluted with 250 and 600 mM NaCl, and fractionated by heparin-Sepharose chromatography. The casein kinase CKI-3 eluting at the highest NaCl concentration (550 mM) was purified to electrophoretic homogeneity by fast protein liquid chromatography. CKI-1 and CKI-2 correspond to mammalian type I casein kinase, because they bind to CM-Sephadex, they are monomeric enzymes of molecular weights below 50,000, they accept ATP exclusively (CKI-1) or predominantly (CKI-2) as phosphate donor, and they are either completely or relatively heparin insensitive. CKII corresponds to type II casein kinase due to its chromatographic properties, complex quaternary structure, nucleotide specificity (both ATP and GTP are phosphate donors), and heparin sensitivity. CKI-3 shares the following properties with type I casein kinases: it is retained by CM-Sephadex but not by DEAE-cellulose, and it consists of a monomeric protein having a molecular weight of 38,000. On the other hand, CKI-3 accepts both ATP and GTP with equal efficiency, and it is heparin sensitive (50% inhibition at 0.3 microgram/mL) like type II casein kinases. CKI-3 differs from the other three yeast casein kinases in requiring a low pH (5.5) and a high MgCl2 concentration (50 mM) for optimal activity. All four casein kinases phosphorylate their own catalytic protein at serine and threonine residues.  相似文献

Src kinase regulation by phosphorylation and dephosphorylation   总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10  
Src and Src-family protein-tyrosine kinases are regulatory proteins that play key roles in cell differentiation, motility, proliferation, and survival. The initially described phosphorylation sites of Src include an activating phosphotyrosine 416 that results from autophosphorylation, and an inhibiting phosphotyrosine 527 that results from phosphorylation by C-terminal Src kinase (Csk) and Csk homologous kinase. Dephosphorylation of phosphotyrosine 527 increases Src kinase activity. Candidate phosphotyrosine 527 phosphatases include cytoplasmic PTP1B, Shp1 and Shp2, and transmembrane enzymes include CD45, PTPalpha, PTPepsilon, and PTPlambda. Dephosphorylation of phosphotyrosine 416 decreases Src kinase activity. Thus far PTP-BL, the mouse homologue of human PTP-BAS, has been shown to dephosphorylate phosphotyrosine 416 in a regulatory fashion. The platelet-derived growth factor receptor protein-tyrosine kinase mediates the phosphorylation of Src Tyr138; this phosphorylation has no direct effect on Src kinase activity. The platelet-derived growth factor receptor and the ErbB2/HER2 growth factor receptor protein-tyrosine kinases mediate the phosphorylation of Src Tyr213 and activation of Src kinase activity. Src kinase is also a substrate for protein-serine/threonine kinases including protein kinase C (Ser12), protein kinase A (Ser17), and CDK1/cdc2 (Thr34, Thr46, and Ser72). Of the three protein-serine/threonine kinases, only phosphorylation by CDK1/cdc2 has been demonstrated to increase Src kinase activity. Although considerable information on the phosphoprotein phosphatases that catalyze the hydrolysis of Src phosphotyrosine 527 is at hand, the nature of the phosphatases that mediate the hydrolysis of phosphotyrosine 138 and 213, and phosphoserine and phosphothreonine residues has not been determined.  相似文献

Incubation of Swiss 3T3 or L929 cells with tumor necrosis factor (TNF) leads to the rapid stimulation of several cytosolic Ser/Thr kinases active toward myelin basic protein, the S6 peptide (RRLSSLR), the G peptide (SPQPSRRGSESSEE), and Kemptide (LRRASLG). This confirms the hypothesis that kinases other than protein kinases A and C may be involved in the TNF signal transduction. Chromatography on Mono Q resolved multiple kinase peaks with each substrate tested and moreover revealed a TNF-mediated casein kinase-2 activation in both cell lines, measurable with the specific RRREEESEEE peptide or with the G peptide. The TNF-stimulated myelin basic protein kinases-1 and -2 were identified as extracellular signal-regulated kinases-2 and -1, respectively, based on their elution pattern on Mono Q chromatography, their inactivation by protein phosphatase action, their reaction with phosphothreonine and phosphotyrosine antibodies, and by their migration on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis as 42- and 44-kDa proteins recognized by anti-extracellular signal-regulated kinase antibodies.  相似文献

DARPP-32 (dopamine- and cAMP-regulated phosphorprotein, Mr = 32,000 as determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis) is an inhibitor of protein phosphatase-1 and is enriched in dopaminoceptive neurons possessing the D1 dopamine receptor. Purified bovine DARPP-32 was phosphorylated in vitro by casein kinase II to a stoichiometry greater than 2 mol of phosphate/mol of protein whereas two structurally and functionally related proteins, protein phosphatase inhibitor-1 and G-substrate, were poor substrates for this enzyme. Sequencing of chymotryptic and thermolytic phosphopeptides from bovine DARPP-32 phosphorylated by casein kinase II suggested that the main phosphorylated residues were Ser45 and Ser102. In the case of rat DARPP-32, the identification of these phosphorylation sites was confirmed by manual Edman degradation. The phosphorylated residues are located NH2-terminal to acidic amino acid residues, a characteristic of casein kinase II phosphorylation sites. Casein kinase II phosphorylated DARPP-32 with an apparent Km value of 3.4 microM and a kcat value of 0.32 s-1. The kcat value for phosphorylation of Ser102 was 5-6 times greater than that for Ser45. Studies employing synthetic peptides encompassing each phosphorylation site confirmed this difference between the kcat values for phosphorylation of the two sites. In slices of rat caudate-putamen prelabeled with [32P]phosphate, DARPP-32 was phosphorylated on seryl residues under basal conditions. Comparison of thermolytic phosphopeptide maps and determination of the phosphorylated residue by manual Edman degradation identified the main phosphorylation site in intact cells as Ser102. In vitro, DARPP-32 phosphorylated by casein kinase II was dephosphorylated by protein phosphatases-1 and -2A. Phosphorylation by casein kinase II did not affect the potency of DARPP-32 as an inhibitor of protein phosphatase-1, which depended only on phosphorylation of Thr34 by cAMP-dependent protein kinase. However, phosphorylation of DARPP-32 by casein kinase II facilitated phosphorylation of Thr34 by cAMP-dependent protein kinase with a 2.2-fold increase in the Vmax and a 1.4-fold increase in the apparent Km. Phosphorylation of DARPP-32 by casein kinase II in intact cells may therefore modulate its phosphorylation in response to increased levels of cAMP.  相似文献

The specificity of casein kinase II has been further defined by analyzing the kinetics of phosphorylation reactions using a number of different synthetic peptides as substrates. The best peptide substrates are those in which multiple acidic amino acids are present on both sides of the phosphorylatable serine or threonine. Acidic residues on the NH2-terminal side of the serine (threonine) greatly enhance the kinetic constants but are not absolutely required. Acidic residues on the COOH-terminal side of the serine (threonine) are absolutely required. One position for which the occupation of an acidic residue is especially critical is the position located 3 residues to the COOH terminus of the phosphate acceptor site, although the presence of an acidic amino acid in the positions that are 4 or 5 residues removed may also provide an appropriate structure that will serve as a substrate for the kinase. Aspartate serves as a better amino acid determinant than glutamate. A relatively short sequence of amino acids surrounding the phosphate acceptor site appears to serve as the basis for the specificity of casein kinase II. The peptides in this study were also assayed with casein kinase I and the casein kinase from the mammary gland so that the specificities of these kinases could be compared to that of casein kinase II.  相似文献

A 30-kDa fragment of Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (30K-CaMKII) is a constitutively active protein Ser/Thr kinase devoid of autophosphorylation activity. We have produced a chimeric enzyme of 30K-CaMKII (designated CX40-30K-CaMKII), in which the N-terminal 40 amino acids of Xenopus Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase I (CX40) were fused to the N-terminal end of 30K-CaMKII. Although CX40-30K-CaMKII exhibited essentially the same substrate specificity as 30K-CaMKII, it underwent significant autophosphorylation. Surprisingly, its autophosphorylation site was found to be Tyr-18 within the N-terminal CX40 region of the fusion protein, although it did not show any Tyr kinase activity toward exogenous substrates. Several lines of evidence suggested that the autophosphorylation occurred via an intramolecular mechanism. These data suggest that even typical Ser/Thr kinases such as 30K-CaMKII can phosphorylate Tyr residues under certain conditions. The possible mechanism of the Tyr residue autophosphorylation is discussed.  相似文献

Five protein kinases were used to study the phosphorylation pattern of the purified skeletal muscle receptor for calcium-channel blockers (CaCB). cAMP kinase, cGMP kinase, protein kinase C, calmodulin kinase II and casein kinase II phosphorylated the 165-kDa and the 55-kDa proteins of the purified CaCB receptor. The 130/28-kDa and the 32-kDa protein of the receptor are not phosphorylated by these protein kinases. Among these protein kinases only cAMP kinase phosphorylated the 165-kDa subunit with 2-3-fold higher initial rate than the 55-kDa subunit. Casein kinase II phosphorylated the 165-kDa and the 55-kDa protein of the receptor with comparable rates. cGMP kinase, protein kinase C and calmodulin kinase II phosphorylated preferentially the 55-kDa protein. The 55-kDa protein is phosphorylated 50 times faster by cGMP kinase and protein kinase C than by calmodulin kinase II or casein kinase II and about 10 times faster by these enzymes than by cAMP kinase. Two-dimensional peptide maps of the 165-kDa subunit yielded a total of 11 phosphopeptides. Four or five peptides are phosphorylated specifically by cAMP kinase, cGMP kinase, casein kinase II and protein kinase C, whereas the other peptides are modified by several kinases. The same kinases phosphorylate 11 peptides in the 55-kDa subunit. Again, some of these peptides are modified specifically by each kinase. These results suggest that the 165-kDa and the 55-kDa subunit contain specific phosphorylation sites for cAMP kinase, cGMP kinase, casein kinase II and protein kinase C. Phosphorylation of these sites may be relevant for the in vivo function of the CaCB receptor.  相似文献

The use of phosphorylation state-specific antibodies has revolutionized the field of cellular signaling by Ser/Thr protein kinases. A more recent application of this technology is the development of phospho-specific antibodies that specifically recognize the consensus substrate phosphorylated motif of a given protein kinase. Here, we describe the development and use of such an antibody which is directed against the optimal phosphorylation motif of protein kinase D (PKD). A degenerate phosphopeptide library with fixed residues corresponding to the consensus LXR(Q/K/E/M)(M/L/K/E/Q/A)S*XXXX was used as an antigen to generate an antibody that recognizes this motif. We characterized the antibody by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and with immobilized peptide arrays and also detected immunoreactive phosphoproteins in HeLa cells stimulated with agonists known to activate PKD. Silencing PKD expression using RNA interference validated the specificity of this antibody immunoreactive against putative substrates. The antibody also detected the PKD substrates RIN1 and HDAC5. Knowledge of the PKD consensus motif also enabled us to identify Ser(82) in the human heat shock protein Hsp27 as a novel substrate for PKD. We term this antibody anti-PKD pMOTIF and predict that it will enable the discovery of novel PKD substrate proteins in cells.  相似文献

Casein kinase I has been shown to phosphorylate Ser123 and possibly Thr124, in simian virus 40 (SV40) large T antigen; the same sites are also modified in cultured cells incubated with 32Pi [Friedrich A. Gr?sser, Karl H. Scheidtmann, Polygena T. Tuazon, Jolinda A. Traugh & Gernot Walter (1988) Virology 165, 13-22]. The peptide, A-D-S-Q-H-S-T-P-P, which corresponds to the amino acid sequence 118-125 of SV40 large T antigen, was synthesized together with peptides containing changes in specific amino acid residues on either side of Ser123. These peptides were used as model substrates to determine the amino acids in the SV40 large T antigen important for recognition by casein kinase I. The native peptide identified above, with aspartate at the -4 position, was a poor substrate for casein kinase I in vitro. Peptides with acidic residues added at the -2 and -3 positions, preceding Ser123, were phosphorylated by casein kinase I with apparent Km values around 2 mM and Vmax values up to 500 pmol.min-1.ml-1. When acidic residues were added at both sides of the phosphorylatable serine, the peptide had a first-order rate constant over 20-fold higher than peptides with acidic amino acid residues at the N-terminus only; the apparent Km value was 0.65 mM with a Vmax of 2900 pmol.min-1.ml-1. The effects of modifying Ser120 to phosphoserine were examined by addition of a recognition sequence for the cAMP-dependent protein kinase prior to Ser120. Prior phosphorylation of the peptide at Ser120 lowered the apparent Km to 0.061 mM and increased the Vmax to 360 pmol.min-1.ml-1, a 50-fold decrease in Km for casein kinase I and a 6-fold increase in Vmax as compared to the non-phosphorylated peptide. This indicates that Ser120, which has been shown to be phosphorylated in vivo, provides an appropriate recognition determinant for casein kinase I.  相似文献
