Abstract
A new protein kinase, showing a high specificity for the ribosomal acidic P proteins (RAP kinase) has been purified and characterized from Saccharomyces cerevisiae extracts. Purification was carried out by four chromatographic steps, including DEAE-cellulose, phosphocellulose, heparin-Sepharose and P protein-Sepharose. The purified enzyme preparation contains only one polypeptide of around 55 kDa as determined by SDS gel electrophoresis and gradient centrifugation. RAP kinase is different from all previous well-characterized kinases and does not show cross-reaction with antibodies to the 71 kDa 60S ribosomal subunit-specific kinase PK60 previously reported. The enzyme uses ATP as a better phosphate donor and is less sensitive to heparin than casein kinase II but is moderately affected by salt. Among the different substrates tested, ribosomal acidic proteins are preferentially modified by RAP kinase, which phosphorylates only serine residues in the four P proteins as well as the related ribosomal protein P0. Casein is phosphorylated at a much lower level. All the data indicate that RAP kinase might be the enzyme responsible for the phosphorylation of the P proteins, and in this way may also participate in a possible translational regulatory mechanism.

Abstract
Four ribosomal proteins of Mr 13 kDa, 15 kDa, 19 kDa and 38 kDa were identified as phosphorylation substrates for protein kinases tightly associated with Trichosporon cutaneum ribosomes. It was found that proteins of 13 kDa, 19 kDa and 38 kDa were phosphorylated by multifunctional casein kinase II while the protein of 15 kDa by casein kinase I. Proteins of 13 kDa and 38 kDa were detected in the large subunits while 15 kDa and 19 kDa in the small ribosomal subunits. By using isoelectrofocusing the protein of 13 kDa was resolved into two individual phosphorylated forms. The phosphorylation level of both forms was much higher in ribosomes from the cells collected at the exponential growth phase than in those from the stationary phase. The same phosphoprotein forms were identified in ribosomes from in vitro and in vivo [32P]-labelling experiments.

Abstract
Protein P0 together with proteins P1 and P2 form the stalk in eukaryotic ribosomes. P0 has a carboxyl-terminal domain about 100 amino acids long that has high sequence similar to the ribosomal proteins P1 and P2. By sequential deletion of this region, a series of Saccharomyces cerevisiae truncated P0 genes have been constructed that encode proteins lacking 21, 87, and 132 amino acids from the carboxyl terminus, respectively. These constructions have been used to transform yeast P0 conditional null mutants to test their capacity to restore cell growth. Removal of only the last 21 amino acids causes a small effect on cell growth in wild-type strains; however, this deletion is lethal in strains having P protein-deficient ribosomes. A P0 lacking 87 amino acids allows cell growth at a low rate, and ribosomes bind P proteins with much less affinity. Lastly, removal of 132 amino acids totally inactivates P0; this deleted protein is unable to bind to the particles, causing a deficiency in active 60 S subunits and making the cell nonviable. These results indicate that at least one out of the five protein P-like carboxyl termini present in the ribosome has to be firmly bound to the particle for protein synthesis and cell viability, and this structure can be provided by protein P0. The part of P0 from around positions 230-290 is important for the interaction of proteins P1/P2 with the ribosome, but it is not essential for protein synthesis. Finally, the region including from residues 185 to 230 is required for the interaction of P0 with the rRNA.

Abstract
Two major ribosomal proteins of Mr 13 kDa and 38 kDa were identified as phosphorylation substrates for ribosome-bound protein kinases from different yeast species. The phosphorylation level was much higher in ribosomes from the cells collected at the exponential growth phase, than in those from the stationary phase. Isoelectrofocusing of the protein band of 13 kDa and subsequent silver staining allowed to identify from four in the case of Pichia stipitis up to ten in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Saccharomycodes Ludwigii, Torulopsis utilis and Kloeckera apiculata individual peptides. In the most of the yeast species studies five phosphorylated peptides were observed. However, only one or two such phosphopeptides were detected in Pichia stipitis and Trichosporon cutaneum ribosomes, respectively. The same phosphoprotein forms were identified in the in vivo 32P-labelling experiments.

Abstract
A protein kinase, specific for 60S ribosomal proteins, has been isolated from Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells, purified to almost homogeneity and characterized. The isolated enzyme is not related to other known protein kinases. Enzyme purification comprised three chromatography steps; DEAE-cellulose, phosphocellulose and heparin-Sepharose. SDS/PAGE analysis of the purified enzyme, indicated a molecular mass of around 71 kDa for the stained single protein band. The specific activity of the protein kinase was directed towards the 60S ribosomal proteins L44, L44', L45 and a 38 kDa protein. All the proteins are phosphorylated only at the serine residues. None of the 40S ribosomal proteins were phosphorylated in the presence of the kinase. For that reason we have named the enzyme the 60S kinase. An analysis of the phosphopeptide maps of acidic ribosomal proteins, phosphorylated at either the 60S kinase or casein kinase II, showed almost identical patterns. Using the immunoblotting technique, the presence of the kinase has been detected in extracts obtained from intensively growing cells. These findings suggest an important role played by the 60S kinase in the regulation of ribosomal activity during protein synthesis.

Abstract
Four acidic phosphoproteins from the ribosomes of the slime mold Dictyostelium discoideum have been identified and partially characterized. These proteins are selectively released from ribosomal particles by salt/ethanol washes, have low molecular weight and acidic pI, and tend to aggregate in solution to form homodimers. These features correspond to proteins of different origins that have been included in the conserved family of eukaryotic A-ribosomal proteins, and, therefore, we have named them Dictyostelium ribosomal proteins A1, A2, A3 and A4. We also demonstrate that Dictyostelium ribosomal A-proteins are specifically phosphorylated in vitro by a type II casein kinase previously identified in Dictyostelium. Isoelectric focusing separation has permitted us to identify four proteins (or P-proteins) that may consist of the phosphorylated forms of A-proteins. A-proteins from Dictyostelium and yeast do not present immunological cross-reactivity. Dictyostelium A-proteins contain, therefore, some specific features in their amino acid sequence that distinguish them from other members of the conserved eukaryotic A-protein family; this conclusion is coherent with data deduced from the nucleotide sequence of cDNA clones encoding two Dictyostelium A-proteins (P1 and P2) which we have recently reported.

Abstract
cDNA clones encoding three antigenically related human ribosomal phosphoproteins (P-proteins) P0, P1, and P2 were isolated and sequenced. P1 and P2 are analogous to Escherichia coli ribosomal protein L7/L12, and P0 is likely to be an analog of L10. The three proteins have a nearly identical carboxy-terminal 17-amino-acid sequence (KEESEESD(D/E)DMGFGLFD-COOH) that is the basis of their immunological cross-reactivity. The identities of the P1 and P2 cDNAs were confirmed by the strong similarities of their encoded amino acid sequences to published primary structures of the homologous rat, brine shrimp, and Saccharomyces cerevisiae proteins. The P0 cDNA was initially identified by translation of hybrid-selected mRNA and immunoprecipitation of the products. To demonstrate that the coding sequences are full length, the P0, P1, and P2 cDNAs were transcribed in vitro by bacteriophage T7 RNA polymerase and the resulting mRNAs were translated in vitro. The synthetic P0, P1, and P2 proteins were serologically and electrophoretically identical to P-proteins extracted from HeLa cells. These synthetic P-proteins were incorporated into 60S but not 40S ribosomes and also assembled into a complex similar to that described for E. coli L7/L12 and L10.

Abstract
The effects of oestrogen on the incorporation of newly-made ribosomal proteins into the ribosomes of the immature rat uterus has been investigated. Different newly-made proteins were shown to enter ribosomes at different rates and there was some evidence that the hormone exerted differential effects. Oestradiol also stimulated the phosphorylation of ribosomal protein S6 but the effect could be explained by hormone-induced changes in the precursor pools.

Abstract
Neurospora crassa acidic ribosomal proteins from the high salt-ethanol extract of 80 S ribosomes have been fractionated by DEAE-cellulose chromatography. Six acidic ribosomal proteins were purified. All resemble Escherichia coli L7 and L12 in amino acid composition and molecular weight but each has a slightly different net charge at pH 3.2. Four have an apparent molecular weight of approx. 14 000, and two have a molecular weight of approx. 14 800. The amino acid compositions and circular dichroism (CD) spectra of the purified Neuropsora proteins are identical for the four 14 kDa proteins, but clearly distinguishable from the two 14.8 kDa proteins. The latter are also identical in amino acid composition and CD spectra. This suggests that there are two Neurospora acidic, or 'A', proteins, one of which exists in four microheterogeneous forms and the other exists in two forms.

Abstract
Studies were performed to identify in cytoplasmic extracts of Krebs II ascites cells protein kinase activities that might be responsible for the phosphorylation of the ribosomal proteins previously identified as phosphoproteins in these cells in vivo. Column chromatography resolved a casein kinase activity that could use ATP or GTP as a phosphoryl donor to phosphorylate, in ribosomes, exclusively the acidic 60S phosphoprotein(s) phosphorylated in vivo. A second casein kinase fraction could use ATP, only, in a similar reaction, but also contained protein kinase activity with respect to other ribosomal proteins, including the basic ribosomal protein phosphorylated in vivo, ribosomal protein S6. This latter was also among several proteins phosphorylated by an activity in the cyclic AMP-independent histone kinase fraction.

Abstract
The acidic proteins extracted by 0.4 M NH4Cl and 50% ethanol from ribosomes from Saccharomyces cerevisiae, wheat germ, Artemia salina, Drosophila melanogaster, rat liver and rabbit reticulocytes have been studied comparatively in several structural and functional aspects. All the species studied have in the ribosome two strongly acidic proteins with pI values not greater than pH 4.5., which appear to be monophosphorylated in the case of S. cerevisiae, A.Salina, D. melanogaster and wheat germ. Rat liver proteins are multiphosphorylated, as possibly are those from reticulocytes. The molecular weight of these acidic proteins as determined by SDS electrophoresis ranges from around 13,500 to 17,000 and, except in the case of yeast, of which both proteins have the same molecular weight, the size of the two proteins in the other species differs by approx. 1,000-2,000. In general, the size of the proteins increases with the evolutionary position of the organism, as seems to be the case with the degree of phosphorylation. From an immunological point of view the ribosomal acid proteins of eukaryotic cells are partically related, since antisera against yeast protein cross-react with proteins from wheat germ, rat liver and reticulocytes. Bacterial proteins L7 and L12 are very weakly recognized by the anti-yeast sera. Anti-bacterial acidic proteins do not cross-react with any of the protein from the species studied. The proteins from all the species studied are functional equivalents and can reconstitute the activity of particles of S. cerevisiae deprived of their acidic proteins.

Abstract
Proteins of membrane-bound ribosomes from normal liver contained 60-70% more phosphate than did proteins from free ribosomes. This difference was not a reflection of the phosphate contents of respective 40 S subunits. Instead, it was owing to the presence of high levels of phosphorylated proteins in the 60 S subunits, i.e., phosphate contents equal to or greater than those for 40 S subunits. The proteins of membrane-bound 60 S subunits contained twice the phosphate as free 60 S subunits. In regenerating rat liver, membrane-bound ribosomes had increased phosphate in the proteins of the 40 S subunits and decreased phosphate in proteins of the 60 S subunit when compared to controls for normal rat liver. No significant changes occurred in the proteins of free ribosomes from regenerating rat liver. These findings are discussed with respect to (a) the importance of assessing total phosphate contents of proteins in the study of ribosomal protein phosphorylation, and (b) the possible involvement of ribosomal protein phosphorylation in the segregation of ribosomes into free and membrane-bound populations and the regulation of these distributions to meet changes in the translational demands of the cell.

Abstract
In BHK cells infected with pseudorabies virus, there was a substantial increase in the phosphorylation of ribosomal protein S6. This increase occurred between 2 and 4 h after infection and persisted at least until 9 h. We estimated that in mock-infected cells S6 contained, on an average, one phosphate group per protein chain, whereas in infected cells this rose to between four and five phosphate groups per protein chain. A second ribosomal protein, either S16 or S18, was also phosphorylated after infection. No increase in cyclic AMP was found at the time of phosphorylation. We also found an increased phosphorylation of S6 in herpes simplex virus-infected BHK cells.

Abstract
Electrofocusing of the acidic proteins extracted from Saccharomyces cerevisiae ribosomes shows the presence of eight bands in the gels, which upon treatment with alkaline phosphatase are reduced to three. Two of them, proteins L44 and L45, correspond to the proteins equivalent to the bacterial L7 and L12 and the third, protein Ax, behaves like a supernatant factor. In the ribosome, proteins L44 and L45 are found unphosphorylated and monophosphorylated while protein Ax is detected mostly in a modified state, showing from one to three phosphate groups per molecule. In the cytoplasm where protein Ax is abundant and proteins L44 and L45 are present in small quantities, the three proteins are unphosphorylated. Protein Ax, having one or two phosphate groups, can be removed from the ribosomes in conditions that release the initiation factors, while the triphosphorylated molecules are tightly bound to the particles. The data indicate a relationship between the degree of phosphorylation of protein Az and its affinity for the ribosome.

Abstract
The phosphorylation of ribosomal proteins in rat liver injured fro various times by carbon tetrachloride and extrahepatic cholestasis was studied. The incorporation of [32P]phosphate into the protein moiety of the small ribosomal subunit was increased over 2-fold 1 to 4 h after injection of the hepatotoxin, whereas the specific activity of the 60 S subunit was low and changed only insignificantly. Two-dimensional electrophoretic analysis of ribosomal proteins complemented by autoradiography revealed that CCl4 stimulated the phosphorylation of only a single protein (S6) in the 40 S subunit. The phosphorylation of S6 led to a measurable anodic shift and elongation of the protein on the 2-dimensional electropherograms. In response to bile duct ligation a similar increase in phosphorylation of protein S6 was noticed.

Abstract
P5/P5', the most acidic and exchangeable phosphoproteins from the large ribosomal subunit in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, were purified from the rest of the ribosomal proteins by means of polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Antibodies against the pure P5/P5' proteins cross-reacted with polypeptides from the cytoplasm suggesting that a cytoplasmic pool of P5/P5' exist. The cytoplasmic polypeptides immunologically related to P5/P5' are not phosphorylated.

Abstract
The complements of ribosomal proteins in growing and starved cells of Tetrahymena pyriformis strain GL were examined by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. In growing cells, the 40-S ribosomal subunit contained 30 proteins, 4 of which migrated toward the anode at pH 8.6, while the 60-S ribosomal subunit contained 46 proteins, 9 of which migrated toward the anode at pH 8.6. When exponentially growing cells were transferred into a non-nutrient medium pronounced phosphorylation of a single 40-S ribosomal subunit protein, S6, was induced. The phosphorylation was very specific; more than 99.5% of the [32P]phosphate incorporated into ribosomal proteins was associated with S6. Phosphate was incorporated into S6 as O-phosphoserine and O-phosphothreonine. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis indicated that the complement of proteins associated with the ribosomes isolated from starved cells differed from that of growing cells. Careful examination, however, suggested that except for the phosphorylation of certain ribosomal proteins in starved cells, the observed differences did not reflect starvation-induced changes in vivo, but most probably different levels of artifactual modifications (limited proteolysis) during the preparation of the ribosomes.

Abstract
The acidic ribosomal phosphoprotein, Lgamma, of Krebs II ascites cells was further characterized and compared with proteins L7 and L12 of Escherichia coli. Ribosomal protein Lgamma was selectively removed from 60S sibosomal subunits by 50% ethanol and 1M-NH4Cl, and antibodies raised against protein Lgamma cross-reacted with E. coli protein L12 in immunodiffusion experiments. These and other, previously reported, data support the proposal that the uekaryotic counterpart of E. coli proteins L7 and L12 is phosphorylated.

Abstract
Eucaryotic L7/L12-type proteins are present in ethanol/salt extracts (P1 protein) of ribosomes from Artemia salina and rat liver. These proteins are partially phosphorylated and occur in two forms of closely related structure: a major form eL12 having methionine at the N-terminal position and a minor form of eL12 (eL12') which seems slightly elongated and contains a blocked N terminus. Purification of the four different forms of this protein, eL12, eL12-P, eL12' and eL12'-P, was performed by ion-exchange chromatography on carboxymethyl-cellulose and DEAE-cellulose. Using a radioimmuno assay, 1.8 copies of eL12 and 0.9 of eL12' were found on the 80-S A. salina ribosome. In ribosomes of both rat liver and A. salina, eL12 is present in a larger quantity than eL12'. 40-S and 60-S ribosomal subunits extracted with ethanol/salt were essentially free of eL12 proteins. A large pool of eL12 was found in the cytosol after removal of the ribosomes by centrifugation or molecular sieving. The proteins of rat liver and A. salina are similar with regard to their isoelectric points and molecular weights. Sedimentation equilibrium studies indicated that the isolated protein eL12 occurs as a dimer.

Abstract
Two-dimensional polyacrylamide-gel electrophoretic analysis of yeast ribosomal proteins labelled in vivo with 32PO43- revealed that the proteins S2 and S10 of the 40S ribosomal subunit, and the proteins L9, L30, L44 and L45 of the 60S ribosomal subunit, are phosphorylated in vivo. Most of the phosphate groups appeared to be linked to serine residues. Teh number of phosphate groups per molecule of phosphorylated protein species ranged from 0.01 to 0.79. Since most of the phosphorylated ribosomal proteins appear to associate with the pre-ribosomal particles at a very late stage of ribosome assembly, phosphorylation is more likely to play a role in the functioning of the ribosome than in its assembly.

Abstract
An acidic protein from rat liver 60-S ribosomal subunits was selectively extracted with 50% ethanol. It was revealed as three different spots by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, two of them being attributable to phosphorylated forms since they disappeared after alkaline phosphatase treatment. The relationship between this protein and similar acidic proteins found in eucaryotic cells is discussed.

Abstract
1. A modified method of two-dimensional gel electrophoresis has been developed for detecting acidic eukaryotic ribosomal proteins. 2. Using this method it has been demonstrated that the major phosphoprotein (Lgamma) of mouse ascites and hamster fibroblast 60-S ribosomal subunits is an acidic protein, apparently analagous to L7/12 of Escherichia coli, and not a neutral protein as previously thought. Electrophoretic resolution of phosphorylated and non-phosphorylated forms of Lgamma has enabled the stoichiometric nature of the phosphorylation (previously deduced from measurement of the specific radioactivity of the ATP pool) to be confirmed. 3. When ascites cells were incubated for 3 h there appeared an altered form of Lgamma which is most likely produced by proteolytic cleavage of the original form. The extent of phosphorylation of Lgamma was decreased by one-half or more in these circumstances. 4. Phosphoprotein Lgamma was found to be almost completely phosphorylated in both polyribosomes and monoribosomes isolated from hamster fibroblasts. Thus the function of the phosphorylation of Lgamma appears not to be concerned with the inactivation of ribosomes.

Abstract
Krebs II ascites cells incubated in Earle's saline (lacking glucose and amino acids) contain ribosomes with proteins S6 and Lgamma phosphorylated, as do ascites cells grown in the peritonea of mice or hamster fibroblasts grown in Eagle's medium. When ascites cells were incubated in Eagle's medium (containing glucose and amino acids) there was extensive glycolysis, producing very acidic conditions, and ribosomal proteins S3 and L14 became phosphorylated whereas Lgamma became dephosphorylated. This altered pattern of phosphorylation could not be produced merely by incubating ascites cells in Earle's saline at a decreased pH, but a rather similar pattern was produced when Earle's saline was supplemented with amino acids (but with glucose still omitted). These results suggest that depriving ascites cells of glucose may induce the synthesis of a protein (or proteins), necessary for alteration of the pattern of phosphorylation of the ribosomal proteins.

Abstract
Electrophoresis of ribosomal proteins according to Kaltschmidt and Wittmann, 1970a, b (pH 8.6/pH 4.5 urea system) yielded 29 proteins for the small subunits and 35 and 37 proteins for the large subunits of Krebs II ascites and HeLa ribosomes, respectively. Analysis of the proteins according to a modified technique by Mets and Bogorad (1974) (pH 4.5/pH 8.6 SDS system) revealed 28 and 29 proteins in the small subunits and 37 and 38 proteins in the large subunits of Krebs II ascites and HeLa ribosomes. The molecular weights of the individual proteins were determined by: 1. "three-dimensional" gel electrophoresis; 2. two-dimensional gel electrophoresis at pH 4.K/pH 8.6 in SDS. The molecular weights for 40S proteins ranged from 10,000 to 39,000 dalton (number average molecular weight: 21,000). The molecular weights for the 60S proteins ranged from 14,000 to 44,000 dalton (number average molecular weight: 23,000) using the "three-dimensional" technique. A molecular weight range from 10,000 to 38,000 dalton (number average molecular weight: 21,000) was obtained for the 40S subunits, whereas the molecular weights for the 60S ribosomal proteins (average molecular weight: 26,000) ranged from 12,000 to 69,000 dalton using the pH 4.5/pH 8.6 SDS system. The molecular weights Krebs II ascites and HeLa ribosomal proteins are compared with those obtained by other authors for different mammalian species.

Abstract
Three fractions of protein kinase from postribosomal supernatant of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, active in phosphorylation of casein, were resolved on DEAE-cellulose. Two of these fractions: protein kinase 1 and protein kinase 3, were further purified about 1000 and 1800-fold respectively. The kinase 1 appeared to exist as a monomer with a molecular weight of 50 000 and utilized only ATP as phosphoryl donor. The protein kinase 3 was an aggregated form of enzyme with a molecular weight of above half a million and used both ATP and GTP for protein phosphorylation. Both isolated enzymes showed variations in respect to Michaelis constants, and inhibitory effects exerted by monovalent cations and nucleotide phosphates. The activity of the kinases was not affected by the presence of cAMP (adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate) or cGMP, however, only protein kinase 1 appeared to be a cAMP nucleotide-independent enzyme. Despite these differences both enzymes equally phosphorylated two strongly acidic proteins of the 60-S ribosome subunit, possibly related to L7, L12 of Escherichia coli.

Abstract
Two-dimensional analysis of the ribosomal proteins from 60-S subunits of HeLa cells revealed a triplet of acidic proteins, L40a, L40b and L40c, of identical molecular weight (13,700), which can be separated only on the basis of their charge differences. Two of the spots, L40b and L40c, become labeled after incubation of the cells with inorganic [32P]phosphate. The electrophoretic behavior and molecular weights of these proteins support the notion that the proteins L40b and L40c, are phosphorylated forms of the protein L40a. The same proteins can be phosphorylated also in vitro by a HeLa protein kinase on 60-S subunits but not on 80-S ribosomes. The inaccessibility of L40 proteins to the phosphorylation in vitro on 80-S ribosomes suggests that they are located in the interface between the 40-S and 60-S subunits.

Abstract
Two acidic proteins from 80-S ribosomes were isolated and purified to homogeneity. The purified acidic proteins could be phosphorylated by casein kinase using [gamma-32P]ATP and [gamma-32P]GTP as a phosphoryl donor. The proteins became phosphorylated in situ, too. Sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel analysis of the purified acidic proteins and 80-S particles showed identical phosphoproteins in the 16 000 dalton region.
