Phosphorylation of the myristoylated protein kinase C substrate MARCKS by the cyclin E-cyclin-dependent kinase 2 complex in vitro.

چکیده
The myristoylated alanine-rich C-kinase substrate (MARCKS) purified from brain was recently characterized as a proline-directed kinase(s) substrate in vivo [Taniguchi, Manenti, Suzuki and Titani (1994) J. Biol. Chem. 269, 18299-18302]. Here we have investigated the phosphorylation of MARCKS by various cyclin-dependent kinases (Cdks) in vitro. We established that Cdk2, Cdk4 and, to a smaller extent, Cdk1 that have been immunoprecipitated from cellular extracts phosphorylate MARCKS. Comparison of MARCKS phosphorylation by protein kinase C (PKC) and by the purified cyclin E-Cdk2 complex suggested that two residues were phosphorylated by Cdk2 under these conditions. To identify these sites, Cdk2-phosphorylated MARCKS was digested with lysyl endoprotease and analysed by electrospray MS. Comparison with the digests obtained from the unphosphorylated protein demonstrated that two peptides, Gly12-Lys30 and Ala138-Lys152, were phosphorylated by cyclin E-Cdk2. The identity of these peptides was confirmed by automatic Edman degradation. On the basis of the consensus phosphorylation sequence described for Cdk2, and on MS/MS analysis of the Ala138-Lys152 peptide, we concluded that Ser27, one of the phosphorylation sites identified in vivo, and Thr150 were the Cdk2 targets in vitro. None of the other sites described in vivo were phosphorylated in these conditions. Interestingly, a preliminary phosphorylation of MARCKS by PKC improved the initial rate of phosphorylation by Cdk2 without modifying the number of sites concerned. In contrast, phosphorylation of MARCKS by Cdk2 did not significantly affect further phosphorylation by PKC.

Background: Novel roles for the interaction of cardiotonic steroids to Na+/K+-ATPase have been established in recent years. The aim of the present study was to investigate the intracellular signaling events downstream the action of ouabain on Na+/K+-ATPase in Sertoli cell obtained from immature rats. Treatment of Sertoli cells with ouabain (1 μM) induced a rapid and transient increase in the ex...

To evaluate the question of whether or not insulin activates protein kinase C (PKC), we compared the effects of insulin and phorbol esters on the phosphorylation of the PKC substrate, i.e. myristoylated alanine-rich C-kinase substrate (MARCKS). In rat adipocytes, rat soleus muscle and BC3H-1 myocytes, maximally effective concentrations of insulin and phorbol esters provoked comparable, rapid, 2...

A major in vivo substrate of Ca(2+)-phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (MARCKS) shows phosphorylation-dependent translocation between the cytoplasmic and the membrane fractions. The mechanism of the translocation was studied with purified MARCKS and various membranes. MARCKS was found to bind to pure phospholipid membranes as well as to the synaptic vesicle membranes. Although the interactio...

We have characterized membrane-associated substrates of Ca2+-dependent kinases in primary rat astrocytes by in vitro phosphorylation, 2-dimensional gel electrophoresis and autoradiography. The most prominent among these were three acidic, protein kinase C (PKC) substrates. These are important because they likely transduce cytokine and other neuro-immune modulatory signals mediated by PKC. We no...

MARCKS (myristoylated alanine-rich C kinase substrate) is a major cytoskeletal protein substrate of PKC (protein kinase C) whose cellular functions are still unclear. However numerous studies have implicated MARCKS in the stabilization of cytoskeletal structures during cell differentiation.
