Abstract
T-cell protein tyrosine phosphatase, TCPTP, is a ubiquitously expressed non-receptor type tyrosine phosphatase. There are two splice variants of TCPTP, TC48 and TC45, which differ in their sub-cellular localizations and functions. TC45 is a nuclear protein, which has both nuclear and cytoplasmic substrates, and is involved in many signaling events including endocytic recycling of platelet-derived growth factor β-receptor. TC48 is a predominantly endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-localizing protein, which dephosphorylates some of the substrates of TC45 at the ER. However, recently few specific substrates for TC48 have been identified. These include C3G (RapGEF1), syntaxin 17 and BCR-Abl. TC48 moves from the ER to post-ER compartments, the ER-Golgi intermediate compartment (ERGIC) and Golgi, and it is retrieved back to the ER. The retrieval of ER proteins from post-ER compartments is generally believed as a mechanism of targeting these proteins to the ER. However, it is possible that this shuttling of TC48 serves to regulate signaling in the early secretory pathway. For example, TC48 dephosphorylates phosphorylated C3G at the Golgi and inhibits neurite outgrowth. TC48 interacts with and dephosphorylates syntaxin 17, which is an ER and ERGIC-localizing protein involved in vesicle transport. A yeast two-hybrid screen identified several unique interacting partners of TC48 belonging to two groups - proteins involved in vesicle trafficking and proteins involved in cell adhesion. These interacting proteins could be substrates or regulators of TC48 function and localization. Thus, the role of TC48 seems to be more diverse, which is still to be explored.

Abstract
Protein kinase CK2 exhibits oncogenic activity in mice and is over-expressed in a number of tumors or leukemic cells. On the basis of its amino acid sequence and a wealth of experimental information, CK2 has traditionally been classified as a protein serine/threonine kinase. In contrast to this traditional view of CK2, recent evidence has shown that CK2 can also phosphorylate tyrosine residues under some circumstances in vitro and in yeast. In this study, we provide definitive evidence demonstrating that CK2 also exhibits tyrosine kinase activity in mammalian cells. Tyrosine phosphorylation of CK2 in cells and in CK2 immunoprecipitates is dependent on CK2 activity and is inhibited by the CK2 selective inhibitor 4,5,6,7-tetrabromobenzotriazole. Examination of phosphotyrosine profiles in cells reveals a number of proteins, including CK2 itself, which exhibit increased tyrosine phosphorylation when CK2 levels are increased. Peptide arrays to evaluate the specificity determinants for tyrosine phosphorylation by CK2 reveal that its specificity for tyrosine phosphorylation is distinct from its specificity for serine/threonine phosphorylation. Of particular note is the requirement for an aspartic acid immediately C-terminal to the phosphorylatable tyrosine residue. Collectively, these data provide conclusive evidence that CK2 catalyzes the phosphorylation of tyrosine residues in mammalian cells, a finding that adds a new level of complexity to the challenge of elucidating its cellular functions. Furthermore, these results raise the possibility that increased CK2 levels that frequently accompany transformation may contribute to the increased tyrosine phosphorylation that occurs in transformed cells.

Abstract
Although chromatin condensation is one of the hallmarks of apoptosis, its relationship with DNA fragmentation has been controversial. We show here that apoptotic chromatin condensation is regulated by nucleoplasmin, a protein that decondenses sperm chromatin during male pronuclear assembly. In Xenopus egg extracts, nucleoplasmin is tyrosine-dephosphorylated during apoptosis. This dephosphorylation inactivates the chromatin decondensation activity of nucleoplasmin and leads to its exclusion from the chromatin. Inhibition of tyrosine dephosphorylation prevents apoptotic chromatin condensation but not DNA fragmentation. Studies with mutant proteins indicate that dephosphorylation of nucleoplasmin at Tyr-124 regulates chromatin condensation through changes in the interaction of nucleoplasmin with chromatin and the loss of its chromatin decondensation activity. These results show that chromatin condensation and DNA fragmentation are independent processes.

Abstract
Two alternatively spliced forms of the human protein tyrosine phosphatase TCPTP (T-cell protein tyrosine phosphatase) exist: a 48 kDa form that is targeted to the endoplasmic reticulum (TC48) and a shorter 45 kDa form that is targeted to the nucleus (TC45). In this study we have identified Ser-304 (Phe301-Asp-His-Ser304-Pro-Asn-Lys307) as a major TCPTP phosphory-lation site and demonstrate that TC45, but not TC48, is phosphorylated on this site in vivo. Phosphorylation of TC45 on Ser-304 was cell cycle-dependent, and increased as cells progressed from G2 into mitosis, but subsided upon mitotic exit. Ser-304 phosphorylation was increased when cells were arrested in mitosis by microtubule poisons such as nocodazole, but remained unaltered when cells were arrested at the G2/M checkpoint by adriamycin. Phosphorylation of Ser-304 did not alter significantly the phosphatase activity or the protein stability of TC45, and had no apparent effect on TC45 localization. Ser-304 phosphorylation was ablated when cells were treated with the CDK (cyclin-dependent protein kinase) inhibitors roscovitine or SU9516, but remained unaltered when ERK1/2 activation was inhibited with the MEK (mitogen-activated protein kinase/extracellular-signal-regulated kinase kinase) inhibitor PD98059. In addition, recombinant CDKs, but not the Polo-like kinase Plk1, phosphorylated Ser-304 in vitro. Our studies identify Ser-304 as a major phosphorylation site in human TCPTP, and the TC45 variant as a novel mitotic CDK substrate.

Abstract
CK2 (formerly termed "casein kinase 2") is a ubiquitous, highly pleiotropic and constitutively active Ser/Thr protein kinase whose implication in neoplasia, cell survival, and virus infection is supported by an increasing number of arguments. Here an updated inventory of 307 CK2 protein substrates is presented. More than one-third of these are implicated in gene expression and protein synthesis as being either transcriptional factors (60) or effectors of DNA/RNA structure (50) or translational elements. Also numerous are signaling proteins and proteins of viral origin or essential to virus life cycle. In comparison, only a minority of CK2 targets (a dozen or so) are classical metabolic enzymes. An analysis of 308 sites phosphorylated by CK2 highlights the paramount relevance of negatively charged side chains that are (by far) predominant over any other residues at positions n+3 (the most crucial one), n+1, and n+2. Based on this signature, it is predictable that proteins phosphorylated by CK2 are much more numerous than those identified to date, and it is possible that CK2 alone contributes to the generation of the eukaryotic phosphoproteome more so than any other individual protein kinase. The possibility that CK2 phosphosites play some global role, e.g., by destabilizing alpha helices, counteracting caspase cleavage, and generating adhesive motifs, will be discussed.

Abstract
The human protein tyrosine phosphatase TCPTP exists as two forms: an endoplasmic reticulum-targeted 48-kDa form (TC48) and a nuclear 45-kDa form (TC45). Although targeted to the nucleus, TC45 can exit in response to specific stimuli to dephosphorylate cytoplasmic substrates. In this study, we investigated the downregulation of insulin receptor (IR) signaling by TCPTP. In response to insulin stimulation, the TC48-D182A and TC45-D182A "substrate-trapping" mutants formed stable complexes with the endogenous tyrosine-phosphorylated IR beta-subunit in 293 cells. Moreover, in response to insulin stimulation, the TC45-D182A mutant accumulated in the cytoplasm of cells overexpressing the IR and in part colocalized with the IR beta-subunit at the cell periphery. These results indicate that the IR may serve as a cellular substrate for both TC48 and TC45. In immortalized TCPTP(-/-) murine embryo fibroblasts, insulin-induced IR beta-subunit tyrosine phosphorylation and protein kinase PKB/Akt activation were enhanced relative to the values in TCPTP(+/+) cells. Importantly, the expression of TC45 or TC48 to physiological levels suppressed the enhanced insulin-induced signaling in TCPTP(-/-) cells. These results indicate that the differentially localized variants of TCPTP may dephosphorylate the IR and downregulate insulin-induced signaling in vivo.

Abstract
Human dual-specificity phosphatases CDC25 (A, B and C) play an important role in the control of cell cycle progression by activating the cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs). Regulation of these phosphatases during the cell cycle involves post-translational modifications such as phosphorylation and protein-protein interactions. Given the suspected involvement of the protein kinase CK2 at the G2/M transition, we have investigated its effects on the CDC25B phosphatase. We show that in vitro CK2 phosphorylates CDC25B, but not CDC25C. Mass spectrometry analysis demonstrates that at least two serine residues, Ser-186 and Ser-187, are phosphorylated in vivo. We also report that CDC25B interacts with CK2, and this interaction, mediated by the CK2beta regulatory subunit, involves domains that are located within the first 55 amino acids of CK2beta and between amino acids 122 and 200 on CDC25B. This association was confirmed in vivo, in Sf9 insect cells and in U(2)OS human cells expressing an HA epitope-tagged CDC25B. Finally, we demonstrate that phosphorylation of CDC25B by protein kinase CK2 increases the catalytic activity of the phosphatase in vitro as well as in vivo. We discuss the possibility that CDC25B phosphorylation by CK2 could play a role in the regulation of the activity of CDC25B as a starter of mitosis.

Abstract
Previous results suggested a potential role for T-cell protein tyrosine phosphatase (TC-PTP) in cell proliferation. However, no conclusive data has supported such a function in the modulation of this process. In order to clarify this issue, we isolated TC-PTP-/- murine embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) as well as cell lines to characterize the role of TC-PTP in the control of cell proliferation and cell cycle. Both TC-PTP-/- primary MEFs and cell lines proliferate slower than TC-PTP+/+ cells. We also demonstrated that TC-PTP-/- cells have a slow progression through the G1 phase of the cell cycle. Further characterization of the G1 defect indicates that the kinetics of cyclin D1 induction was delayed and that p27(KIP1) remains at higher levels for an extended period of time. Moreover, cells lacking TC-PTP showed a delayed activation of CDK2. This slow progression through the early G1-phase resulted in decreased phosphorylation of the RB protein and subsequent delay into the S phase transition. In contrast, no further defects were detected in other phases of the cell cycle. Survey of the potential signaling pathways leading to this delayed cyclin D1 expression indicated that NF-kappaB activation was compromised and that IKKbeta activity was also reduced following PDGF stimulation. Reintroduction of wild-type TC-PTP into the TC-PTP-/- cells rescued the defective proliferation, cyclin D1 expression, NF-kappaB activation as well as IkappaB phosphorylation. Together, these results confirm that TC-PTP plays a positive role in the progression of early G1 phase of the cell cycle through the NF-kappaB pathway.

Abstract
PTP-S2 is a ubiquitously expressed nuclear protein tyrosine phosphatase which shows increased expression upon mitogenic stimulation in a variety of cells in vitro and in vivo. In order to understand the role of this enzyme in cell cycle progression, tetracycline-regulated HeLa clones expressing PTP-S2 were isolated and characterized. Tetracycline-controlled expression of PTP-S2 increased the rate of cell proliferation. An analysis of the distribution of cells in various phases of the cell cycle in an exponentially growing cell population showed that there was a large decrease in the percentage of cells in G1 phase in a PTP-S2-expressing population of cells compared to nonexpressing cells. This decrease in the percentage of cells in G1 was dependent on the level of PTP-S2 expression. There was a corresponding increase in the percentage of cells in G2/M but no significant increase in the percentage of cells in S phase. An analysis of the time course of cell cycle progression after release from double thymidine block showed that the duration of G1 phase was significantly shortened in cells induced to express exogenous PTP-S2. However, the duration of S phase was not significantly altered and the duration of G2 phase was increased to some extent. Induction of PTP-S2 expression was associated with an increase in c-Myc protein levels, although the c-Myc mRNA level was not changed. Our results suggest that overexpression of PTP-S2 promotes progression of cells through G1 to S phase and is associated with increased level of c-Myc protein through a posttranscriptional mechanism.
