Autophosphorylation of rat brain Ca2+-activated and phospholipid-dependent protein kinase
Abstract
Ca2+-activated and phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase C) isolated from rat brain cytosol undergoes autophosphorylation in the presence of Mg2+, ATP, Ca2+, phosphatidylserine, and diolein. Approximately 2-2.5 mol of phosphate were incorporated per mol of the kinase. After sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and autoradiography, the phosphorylated kinase showed a single protein band of Mr = 82,000 compared to the Mr = 80,000 of the nonphosphorylated enzyme. Analysis of the 32P-labeled tryptic peptides derived from the autophosphorylated kinase by peptide mapping revealed that multiple sites were phosphorylated. Both serine and threonine residues were found to be labeled with 32P. Limited proteolysis of the autophosphorylated kinase with trypsin resulted in the conversion of the kinase into a phospholipid- and Ca2+-independent form. Two major 32P-labeled fragments, Mr = 48,000 and 38,000, were formed as a result of proteolysis, suggesting that the catalytic domain and possibly the Ca2+- and phospholipid-binding region were both phosphorylated. Protein kinase C autophosphorylation has a Km for ATP (1.5 microM) about 10-fold lower than that for phosphorylation of exogenous substrates. The kinetically preferred autophosphorylation appears to be an intramolecular reaction. The autophosphorylated protein kinase C, unlike the protease-degraded enzyme, still depends on Ca2+ and phospholipid for maximal activity. However, the autophosphorylated form of the kinase has a lower Ka for Ca2+ and a higher affinity for the binding of [3H]phorbol-12, 13-dibutyrate. These findings suggest that autophosphorylation of protein kinase C may be important in the regulation of the enzymic activity subsequent to signal transduction.
