Different properties of four molecular forms of protein kinase CK2 from Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

چکیده
CK2 is a pleiotropic constitutively active serine/threonine protein kinase composed of two catalytic alpha- and two regulatory beta-subunits, whose regulation is still not well understood. It seems to play an essential role in regulation of many cellular processes. Four active forms of CK2, composed of alphaalpha'betabeta', alpha(2)betabeta', alpha'(2)betabeta', and a free alpha'-subunit were isolated from wild-type yeast and strains containing a single deletion of the catalytic subunit. Each species exhibits properties typical for CK2, but they differ in substrate specificity and sensitivity to inhibitors. This suggests that each CK2 isomer may regulate different process or may differ in the way of its regulation.

CK2 forms a stable complex with TFIIIB and activates RNA polymerase III transcription in human cells.
CK2 is a highly conserved protein kinase with growth-promoting and oncogenic properties. It is known to activate RNA polymerase III (PolIII) transcription in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and is shown here to also exert a potent effect on PolIII in mammalian cells. Peptide and chemical inhibitors of CK2 block PolIII transcription in human cell extracts. Furthermore, PolIII transcription in mammalian...
