Abstract
The imbalance in the phosphorylation and the dephosphorylation of proteins leads to various diseases. Therefore, in vivo, the functions of protein kinases and protein phosphatases are strictly regulated. Mg2+/Mn2+-dependent protein phosphatase PPM1M has been implicated in immunity and cancer; however, the regulation mechanism remains unknown. In this study, we show that PPM1M is regulated in different ways by multiple phosphorylation. PPM1M has four Ser/Thr-Pro motifs (Ser27, Ser43, Ser60, and Thr254) that are recognized by proline-directed kinases, and Ser60 was found to be phosphorylated by cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (CDK5) in the cell. The phospho-mimetic mutation of Ser27 and Ser43 in the N-terminal domain suppresses the nuclear localization of PPM1M and promotes its accumulation in the cytoplasm. The phospho-mimetic mutation of Ser60 decreases PPM1M activity; conversely, the phospho-mimetic mutation of Thr254 increases PPM1M activity. These results suggest that the subcellular localization and phosphatase activity of PPM1M are regulated by protein kinases, including CDK5, via phosphorylation at multiple sites. Thus, PPM1M is differentially regulated by proline-directed kinases, including CDK5.

Abstract
Bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2)-inducible kinase (BMP2K) is induced by the cytokine BMP2, which is also implicated in the production of bone differentiation. In addition to regulating bone differentiation, BMP2K is implicated in a variety of cancers. Therefore, understanding the variables that determine where in the cell this kinase functions may help in understanding malignancies linked to BMP2K. However, the mechanisms regulating the subcellular localization of BMP2K are mainly unknown. By liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS), BMP2K forms droplets in the cytoplasm, but how the droplets are regulated remains unclear. The reason why BMP2K localizes to the cytoplasm irrespective of having a nuclear localization signal (NLS) is also unknown. Here we show the element that controls BMP2K's LLPS and cytoplasmic localization. A glutamine-rich area is necessary for BMP2K phase separation, and droplet formation is controlled by hyperosmolarity. Cytoplasmic localization of BMP2K is managed by inhibition of NLS function through phosphorylation of Ser-1010 and by a newly found cytoplasmic localization region that antagonizes the NLS. These results will provide an important biochemical foundation for the advancement of BMP2K-related cell biology, structural biology, and pathophysiology.

Abstract
CaMK phosphatase (CaMKP/POPX2/PPM1F) is a Ser/Thr protein phosphatase that belongs to the PPM family. Accumulating evidence suggests that CaMKP is involved in the pathogenesis of various diseases, including cancer. To clarify the relationship between CaMKP activity and human breast cancer cell motility, we examined the phosphatase activity of CaMKP in cell extracts. CaMKP activity assays of the immunoprecipitates prepared from the cell extract revealed that cells exhibiting higher motility had higher CaMKP activity, with no significant differences in the specific activity being observed. Two CaMKP-specific inhibitors, 1-amino-8-naphthol-4-sulfonic acid (ANS) and 1-amino-8-naphthol-2,4-disulfonic acid (ANDS), inhibited the migration of highly invasive MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells without significant cytotoxicity, while an inactive analog, naphthionic acid, did not. Furthermore, the cells lost their elongated morphology and assumed a rounded shape following treatment with ANS, whereas they retained their elongated morphology following treatment with naphthionic acid. Consistent with these findings, ANS and ANDS significantly enhanced the phosphorylation level of CaMKI, a cellular substrate of CaMKP, while naphthionic acid did not. The present data suggest that CaMKP could be a novel therapeutic target for cancer metastasis.

Abstract
CaMK phosphatase (CaMKP/PPM1F/POPX2) is a Mn2+-dependent, calyculin A/okadaic acid-insensitive Ser/Thr protein phosphatase that belongs to the PPM family. CaMKP is thought to be involved in regulation of not only various protein kinases, such as CaM kinases and p21-activated protein kinase, but also of cellular proteins regulated by phosphorylation. A large-scale screening of a chemical library identified gallic acid and some of its alkyl esters as novel CaMKP inhibitors highly specific to CaMKP. Surprisingly, they caused specific carbonylation of CaMKP, leading to its inactivation. Under the same conditions, no carbonylation nor inactivation was observed when PPM1A, which is affiliated with the same family as CaMKP, and λ-phosphatase were used. The carbonylation reaction was inhibited by SH compounds such as cysteamine in a dose-dependent manner with a concomitant decrease in CaMKP inhibition by ethyl gallate. The pyrogallol structure of gallate was necessary for the gallate-mediated carbonylation of CaMKP. Point mutations of CaMKP leading to impairment of phosphatase activity did not significantly affect the gallate-mediated carbonylation. Ethyl gallate resulted in almost complete inhibition of CaMKP under the conditions where the carbonylation level was nearly identical to that of CaMKP carbonylation via metal-catalyzed oxidation with ascorbic acid/FeSO4, which resulted in only a partial inhibition of CaMKP. The gallate-mediated carbonylation of CaMKP absolutely required divalent cations such as Mn2+, Cu2+, Co2+ and Fe2+, and was markedly enhanced by a phosphopeptide substrate. When MDA-MB-231 cells transiently expressing CaM kinase I, a CaMKP substrate, were treated by ethyl gallate, significant enhancement of phosphorylation of CaM kinase I was observed, suggesting that ethyl gallate can penetrate into cells to inactivate cellular CaMKP. All the presented data strongly support the hypothesis that CaMKP undergoes carbonylation of its specific amino acid residues by incubation with alkyl gallates and the divalent metal cations, leading to inactivation specific to CaMKP.

Abstract
Ca2+/calmodulin (CaM)-dependent protein kinase Iδ (CaMKIδ) is a Ser/Thr kinase that plays pivotal roles in Ca2+ signalling. CaMKIδ is activated by Ca2+/CaM-binding and phosphorylation at Thr180 by CaMK kinase (CaMKK). In this study, we characterized four splice variants of mouse CaMKIδ (mCaMKIδs: a, b, c and d) found by in silico analysis. Recombinant mCaMKIδs expressed in Escherichia coli were phosphorylated by CaMKK; however, only mCaMKIδ-a and c showed protein kinase activities towards myelin basic protein in vitro, with mCaMKIδ-b and mCaMKIδ-d being inactive. Although mCaMKIδ-a and mCaMKIδ-c underwent autophosphorylation in vitro, only mCaMKIδ-c underwent autophosphorylation in 293T cells. Site-directed mutagenesis showed that the autophosphorylation site is Ser349, which is found in the C-terminal region of only variants c and b (Ser324). Furthermore, phosphorylation of these sites (Ser324 and Ser349) in mCaMKIδ-b and c was more efficiently catalyzed by cAMP-dependent protein kinase in vitro and in cellulo as compared to the autophosphorylation of mCaMKIδ-c. Thus, variants of mCaMKIδ possess distinct properties in terms of kinase activities, autophosphorylation and phosphorylation by another kinase, suggesting that they play physiologically different roles in murine cells.

Abstract
Protein phosphatase PPM1H is known to participate in various biological or pathophysiological mechanisms. However, little is known about the molecular mechanisms of its regulation. In this study, we investigated the protein kinases that directly phosphorylate PPM1H, identifying them as cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) and Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase I (CaMKI). In vitro and in silico analyses showed that the phosphorylation sites of PPM1H by PKA and CaMKI were Ser-123 and Ser-210, respectively. The phosphorylation state of PPM1H in cells exhibited the kinase activator- and inhibitor-dependent changes. In mouse neuroblastoma Neuro2a cells, phosphorylation of Ser-210 was much higher in the phospho-mimetic mutant (S123D) than in the non-phosphorylatable mutant (S123A) when they were treated with ionomycin. This suggests that a hierarchical phosphorylation, with initial phosphorylation of Ser-123 promoting subsequent phosphorylation of Ser-210, occurs in these neuron-like cells. Moreover, in cell-based assay a PPM1H(S123A/S210A) double mutant barely dephosphorylated Smad1, a transcription factor known as an endogenous substrate of PPM1H. These results suggest that cAMP and Ca2+/calmodulin regulate dephosphorylation of Smad1 through the dual phosphorylation of PPM1H at Ser-123 and Ser-210.

Abstract
Protein kinases are known to be implicated in various biological phenomena and diseases through their involvement in protein phosphorylation. Therefore, analysis of the activity of protein kinases by examination of their phosphorylation state is important to elucidate their mechanisms. However, a method for analyzing the phosphorylation state of entire protein kinases in cells is not established. In the present study, we developed a new profiling method to analyze the expression and phosphorylation state of protein kinases using a Multi-PK antibody and Phos-tag 2D-PAGE. When HL-60 cells were differentiated into macrophage-like cells induced by 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate, we observed significant changes in the expression and phosphorylation state of immunoreactive spots by this method. These results show that tyrosine kinase expression levels and phosphorylation state are changed by differentiation. Taken together, the developed method will be a useful tool for analysis of intracellular tyrosine protein kinases.

Abstract
We surveyed genome sequences from the basidiomycetous mushroom Coprinopsis cinerea and isolated a cDNA homologous to CMKA, a calmodulin-dependent protein kinase (CaMK) in Aspergillus nidulans. We designated this sequence, encoding 580 amino acids with a molecular weight of 63,987, as CoPK02. CoPK02 possessed twelve subdomains specific to protein kinases and exhibited 43, 35, 40% identity with rat CaMKI, CaMKII, CaMKIV, respectively, and 40% identity with CoPK12, one of the CaMK orthologs in C. cinerea. CoPK02 showed significant autophosphorylation activity and phosphorylated exogenous proteins in the presence of Ca2+/CaM. By the CaM-overlay assay we confirmed that the C-terminal sequence (Trp346-Arg358) was the calmodulin-binding site, and that the binding of Ca2+/CaM to CoPK02 was reduced by the autophosphorylation of CoPK02. Since CoPK02 evolved in a different clade from CoPK12, and showed different gene expression compared to that of CoPK32, which is homologous to mitogen-activated protein kinase-activated protein kinase, CoPK02 and CoPK12 might cooperatively regulate Ca2+-signaling in C. cinerea.

Abstract
Diverse biological events are regulated through protein phosphorylation mediated by protein kinases. Some of these protein kinases are known to be involved in the pathogenesis of various diseases. Although 518 protein kinase genes were identified in the human genome, it remains unclear how many and what kind of protein kinases are expressed and activated in cells and tissues under varying situations. To investigate cellular signaling by protein kinases, we developed monoclonal antibodies, designated as Multi-PK antibodies, that can recognize multiple protein kinases in various biological species. These Multi-PK antibodies can be used to profile the kinases expressed in cells and tissues, identify the kinases of special interest, and analyze protein kinase expression and phosphorylation state. Here we introduce some applications of Multi-PK antibodies to identify and characterize the protein kinases involved in epigenetics, glucotoxicity in type 2 diabetes, and pathogenesis of ulcerative colitis. In this review, we focus on the recently developed technologies for kinomics studies using the powerful analytical tools of Multi-PK antibodies. Multi-PK antibodies recognize a wide variety of protein kinases. New analytical methods using Multi-PK antibodies for protein kinase studies are explained. Kinomics studies using Multi-PK antibodies are introduced.

Abstract
Cyclin-dependent kinase-like 5 (CDKL5) is a Ser/Thr protein kinase primarily expressed in the central nervous system and is known to cause X-linked neurodevelopmental disorders such as Rett syndrome. However, the mechanisms regulating CDKL5 have not yet been fully clarified. Therefore, in this study, we investigated the protein kinase that directly phosphorylates CDKL5, identifying it as dual specificity tyrosine-phosphorylation-regulated kinase 1A (DYRK1A), an enzyme binding to and phosphorylating CDKL5. We showed that subcellular distribution of CDKL5 was regulated by its phosphorylation by DYRK1A. In mouse neuroblastoma Neuro2a cells, CDKL5 was localized in both the cytosol and nucleus, whereas DYRK1A showed a typical nuclear localization. When CDKL5 and DYRK1A were co-expressed, the cytosolic localization of CDKL5 was significantly increased. Results of site-directed mutagenesis revealed that the phosphorylation site was Ser-308, in the vicinity of the nuclear localization signal. A mutation mimicking the phosphorylated serine residue by aspartate substitution (S308D) changed CDKL5 localization to the cytosol, whereas the corresponding alanine-substituted analog, CDKL5(S308A), was primarily localized to the nucleus. Taken together, these results strongly suggested that DYRK1A bound to CDKL5 and phosphorylated it on Ser-308, thus interfering with its nuclear localization.

Abstract
Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase phosphatase (CaMKP/PPM1F) is a Ser/Thr phosphatase that belongs to the PPM family. Growing evidence suggests that PPM phosphatases including CaMKP act as a complex with other proteins to regulate cellular functions. In this study, using the two-dimensional far-western blotting technique with digoxigenin-labeled CaMKP as a probe, in conjunction with peptide mass fingerprinting analysis, we identified neurofilament L (NFL) as a CaMKP-binding protein in a Triton-insoluble fraction of rat brain. We confirmed binding of fluorescein-labeled CaMKP (F-CaMKP) to NFL in solution by fluorescence polarization. The analysis showed that the dissociation constant of F-CaMKP for NFL is 73 ± 17 nM (n = 3). Co-immunoprecipitation assay using a cytosolic fraction of NGF-differentiated PC12 cells showed that endogenous CaMKP and NFL form a complex in cells. Furthermore, the effect of CaMKP on self-assembly of NFL was examined. Electron microscopy revealed that CaMKP markedly prevented NFL from forming large filamentous aggregates, suggesting that CaMKP-binding to NFL inhibits its filament association. These findings may provide new insights into a novel mechanism for regulating network formation of neurofilaments during neuronal differentiation.

Abstract
Protein kinase expression and activity play important roles in diverse cellular functions through regulation of phosphorylation signaling. The most commonly used tools for detecting the protein kinase are protein kinase-specific antibodies, and phosphorylation site-specific antibodies were used for detecting activated protein kinase. Using these antibodies, only one kinase was analyzed at a time, however, a method for analyzing the expression and activation of a panel of protein kinases in cells is not established. Therefore, we developed a combined method using Multi-PK antibody and Phos-tag SDS-PAGE for profiling the expression and phosphorylation state of intracellular protein kinases. Using the new method, changes in the expression and phosphorylation state of various protein kinases were detected in cells treated with anticancer agent which inhibit multiple tyrosine kinase activities. Therefore, the new method is a useful technique for analysis of intracellular protein kinases.Multi-PK antibody recognizes a wide variety of protein kinases in various species. Using Phos-tag SDS-PAGE, phosphorylated proteins are visualized as slower migration bands compared with corresponding non-phosphorylated proteins. This combined method can be used for detecting changes in the expression and phosphorylation state of various intracellular protein kinases.

Abstract
Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase phosphatase (CaMKP/PPM1F) is a Ser/Thr protein phosphatase that belongs to the PPM family. It is important to identify an endogenous regulator of CaMKP. Using an Escherichia coli two-hybrid screening method, we identified the C-terminal cytoplasmic fragment of protocadherin γ subfamily C5 (Pcdh-γC5), which was generated by intracellular processing, as a CaMKP-binding protein. Dephosphorylation of phosphorylated Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase I (CaMKI) by CaMKP was significantly activated by the C-terminal cytoplasmic fragment, Pcdh-γC5(715-944), both in vitro and in cells, suggesting that the C-terminal fragment functions as an endogenous activator of CaMKP. The nuclear translocation of the fragment was blocked by its binding to cytoplasmic CaMKP to form a ternary complex with CaMKI. Taken together, these results strongly suggest that the C-terminal cytoplasmic fragment of Pcdh-γC5 acts as a scaffold for CaMKP and CaMKI to regulate CaMKP activity. These findings may provide new insights into the reversible regulation of CaMKP in cells.

Abstract
Molecular oscillation of the circadian clock is based on E-box-mediated transcriptional feedback loop formed with clock genes and their encoding products, clock proteins. The clock proteins are regulated by post-translational modifications such as phosphorylation. We investigated the effects of a series of kinase inhibitors on gene expression rhythms in Rat-1 fibroblasts. The period of the cellular circadian rhythm in culture was lengthened by treatment with SB203580 (p38 MAPK inhibitor), SP600125 (JNK inhibitor), IC261 (CKI inhibitor) and Roscovitine (CDK inhibitor). On the other hand, the period was shortened by SB216763 (GSK-3 inhibitor) or KN93 (CaMKII inhibitor) treatment. Application of 20 μM KN93 completely abolished the rhythmic gene expression. The activity of CaMKII exhibited circadian variation in a phase close to the E-box-mediated transcriptional rhythms. In vitro kinase assay revealed that CaMKII directly phosphorylates N-terminal and Ser/Pro-rich domains of CLOCK, an activator of E-box-mediated transcription. These results indicate a phosphorylation-dependent tuning of the period length by a regulatory network of multiple kinases and reveal an essential role of CaMKII in the cellular oscillation mechanism.

Abstract
Cyclin-dependent kinase-like 5 (CDKL5) is a Ser/Thr protein kinase known to be associated with X-linked neurodevelopmental disorders. In a previous study, we identified amphiphysin 1 (Amph1) as a potential substrate for CDKL5 and identified a single phosphorylation site at Ser-293. In this study, we investigated the molecular mechanisms of substrate recognition by CDKL5 using Amph1 as a model substrate. Amph1 served as an efficient CDKL5 substrate, whereas Amph2, a structurally related homologue of Amph1, was not phosphorylated by CDKL5. The sequence around the Amph1 phosphorylation site is RPR(293)SPSQ, while the corresponding sequence in Amph2 is IPK(332)SPSQ. To define the amino acid sequence specificity of the substrate, various point mutants of Amph1 and Amph2 were prepared and phosphorylated by CDKL5. Both Amph2(I329R) and Amph1 served as efficient CDKL5 substrates, but Amph1(R290I) did not, indicating that the arginyl residue at the P -3 position is critical for substrate recognition. With regard to prolyl residues around the phosphorylation site of Amph1, Pro-291 at the P -2 position, but not Pro-294 at the P +1 position, is indispensable for phosphorylation by CDKL5. Phosphorylation experiments using various deletion mutants of Amph1 revealed that the proline-rich domain (PRD) (amino acids 247-315) alone was not phosphorylated by CDKL5. In contrast, Amph1(247-385), which comprised the PRD and CLAP domains, served as an efficient CDKL5 substrate. These results, taken together, suggest that both the phosphorylation site sequence (RPXSX) and the CLAP domain structure in Amph1 play crucial roles in recognition and phosphorylation by CDKL5.

Abstract
Daily behavioral rhythms in mammals are governed by the central circadian clock located in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN), and calcium is thought to play a role in the oscillation of the SCN. Kon et al. now find that Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) activity promotes dimerization of CLOCK and BMAL1 and is essential for the cellular oscillation and synchronization among oscillators in the SCN. Kinase-dead CaMKIIα weakened the behavioral rhythmicity and elicited decoupling between the morning and evening activity rhythms. Daily behavioral rhythms in mammals are governed by the central circadian clock, located in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN). The behavioral rhythms persist even in constant darkness, with a stable activity time due to coupling between two oscillators that determine the morning and evening activities. Accumulating evidence supports a prerequisite role for Ca2+ in the robust oscillation of the SCN, yet the underlying molecular mechanism remains elusive. Here, we show that Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) activity is essential for not only the cellular oscillation but also synchronization among oscillators in the SCN. A kinase-dead mutation in mouse CaMKIIα weakened the behavioral rhythmicity and elicited decoupling between the morning and evening activity rhythms, sometimes causing arrhythmicity. In the mutant SCN, the right and left nuclei showed uncoupled oscillations. Cellular and biochemical analyses revealed that Ca2+–calmodulin–CaMKII signaling contributes to activation of E-box-dependent gene expression through promoting dimerization of circadian locomotor output cycles kaput (CLOCK) and brain and muscle Arnt-like protein 1 (BMAL1). These results demonstrate a dual role of CaMKII as a component of cell-autonomous clockwork and as a synchronizer integrating circadian behavioral activities.

Abstract
Multifunctional Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent protein kinases (CaMKs) have been extensively studied in mammals, whereas fungus CaMKs still remain largely uncharacterized. We previously obtained CaMK homolog in Coprinopsis cinerea, designated CoPK12, and revealed its unique catalytic properties in comparison with the mammalian CaMKs. To further clarify the regulatory mechanisms of CoPK12, we investigated post-translational modification and subcellular localization of CoPK12 in this study. In C. cinerea, full-length CoPK12 (65 kDa) was fractionated in the membrane fraction, while the catalytically active fragment (46 kDa) of CoPK12 was solely detected in the soluble fraction by differential centrifugation. Expressed CoPK12-GFP was localized on the cytoplasmic and vacuolar membranes as visualized by green fluorescence in yeast cells. In vitro N-myristoylation assay revealed that CoPK12 is N-myristoylated at Gly-2 in the N-terminal position. Furthermore, calmodulin could bind not only to CaM-binding domain but also to the N-terminal myristoyl moiety of CoPK12. These results, taken together, suggest that the cellular localization and function of CoPK12 are regulated by protein N-myristoylation and limited proteolysis.

Abstract
We developed a method for detecting phosphatase activities in crude tissue extracts after separation of proteins by a novel non-denaturing two-dimensional electrophoresis. In the first dimension, protein samples were separated by a MicroRotofor, a liquid-phase isoelectric focusing, in the presence or absence of urea. In the second dimension, fractionated proteins by the MicroRotofor were resolved by a native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of 20 mM 2-mercaptoethanol. After electrophoresis, the polyacrylamide gel was directly immersed in a reaction mixture containing 4-methylumbelliferyl phosphate (MUP), a fluorogenic substrate, and phosphatase activities were detected as fluorescent bands. In this assay, a variety of phosphatase activities were clearly detected in gel when the tissue extracts were separated by the MicroRotofor in the presence of 1.5 M urea. Furthermore, after detecting phosphatase activities in polyacrylamide gel at neutral pH, its activities at acidic pH could be detected by immersing the gel in sodium citrate buffer (pH 3.0). Therefore, this method is a quite useful technique to analyze various phosphatases by sequential reactions with MUP under different conditions after sample separation by the two-dimensional electrophoresis.

Abstract
Protein phosphorylation by protein tyrosine (Tyr) kinases plays important roles in a variety of signalling pathways in cell growth, differentiation and oncogenesis in animals. Despite the absence of classical Tyr kinases in plants, a similar ratio of phosphotyrosine residues in phosphorylated proteins was found in Arabidopsis thaliana as in human. However, protein kinases responsible for tyrosine phosphorylation in plants except some dedicated dual-specificity kinases still remain unclear. In this study, we found that PKL01, a nuclear Dbf2-related (Ndr) kinase homologue in Lotus japonicus, was autophosphorylated at a tyrosine residue when it was expressed in Escherichia coli, but kinase-dead mutant of PKL01 was not. Tyrosine phophorylation site in PKL01 was identified as Tyr-56 by LC-MS/MS analysis. Recombinant PKL01, which had been dephosphorylated by an alkaline phosphatase, could be phosphorylated again at the Tyr residue when it was incubated with ATP. Furthermore, other Ndr kinases in plants and PKL01 phosphorylated on Tyr residues in the exogenous substrates such as poly(Glu, Tyr)(4:1) and casein. Therefore, the Ndr kinases in plants, which had been assumed as protein serine (Ser)/threonine (Thr) kinases, turned out to be dual-specificity kinases responsible for phosphorylation of Tyr residues and Ser/Thr residues in plant proteins.

Abstract
To investigate the regulatory mechanisms of cellular signaling by protein phosphorylation, it is important to analyze protein phosphatases, as well as protein kinases expressed in cells and tissues. In this unit, two different types of in-gel phosphatase assays are described. The first is an in-gel phosphatase assay using fluorogenic substrates. Protein samples containing phosphatase activities are resolved by native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (native-PAGE) and phosphatase activities detected in situ using fluorogenic substrates, such as 4-methylumbelliferyl phosphate (MUP) or 6,8-difluoro-4-methylumbelliferyl phosphate (DiFMUP). The other assay is an in-gel phosphatase assay using (32)P-labeled substrates. In this method, protein samples are resolved by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) using polyacrylamide gels containing (32)P -labeled substrates, renatured in situ, and the dephosphorylating activities detected by autoradiography. Each method has advantages and disadvantages that are discussed in the commentary.

Abstract
Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase phosphatase (CaMKP) and its nuclear homolog CaMKP-N are Ser/Thr protein phosphatases that belong to the PPM family. These phosphatases are highly specific for multifunctional CaM kinases and negatively regulate their activities. CaMKP-N is only expressed in the brain and specifically localized in the nucleus. In this study, we found that zebrafish CaMKP-N (zCaMKP-N) underwent proteolytic processing in both the zebrafish brain and Neuro2a cells. In Neuro2a cells, the proteolytic processing was effectively inhibited by the proteasome inhibitors MG-132, Epoxomicin, and Lactacystin, suggesting that the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway was involved in this processing. Using MG-132, we found that the proteolytic processing changed the subcellular localization of zCaMKP-N from the nucleus to the cytosol. Accompanying this change, the cellular targets of zCaMKP-N in Neuro2a cells were significantly altered. Furthermore, we obtained evidence that the zCaMKP-N activity was markedly activated when the C-terminal domain was removed by the processing. Thus, the proteolytic processing of zCaMKP-N at the C-terminal region regulates its catalytic activity, subcellular localization and substrate targeting in vivo.

Abstract
Intracellular signaling is governed by protein phosphorylation and dephosphorylation catalyzed by protein kinases and protein phosphatases, respectively. Since there is growing evidence that a variety of protein phosphatases are involved in the pathogenesis of various diseases, protein phosphatases have recently been the focus of intense research interest, not only in basic biology but also in clinical medicine. In the process of these studies, analytical methods for protein phosphatases will be of increasing importance. A major bottleneck in protein phosphatase assays is the selection and preparation of an efficient substrate for the phosphatase to be assayed. To circumvent this difficulty, a variety of protein phosphatase substrates have been devised during the development of novel assay techniques by which protein phosphatase activities can be readily detected. In this review, we focus on the methodology for detecting protein phosphatase activities, with special emphasis on in-gel protein phosphatase assays and related techniques. The utility and limitations of these methods are also discussed.

Abstract
Glucotoxicity is a critical component of the pathophysiology of type 2 diabetes mellitus; however, the molecular mechanisms of glucotoxicity are still not fully understood. We have attempted to determine the protein kinases involved in glucotoxicity in pancreatic β-cells by the use of a new technique. Using Multi-PK antibodies, which are capable of detecting a wide variety of protein kinases, we analyzed the protein kinase that correlated with insulin synthesis in INS-1 cells under glucotoxic conditions. When expression patterns of protein kinases in INS-1 cells were analyzed by Western blotting with Multi-PK antibodies, a kinase of 63 kd was significantly reduced concomitant with the decrease of insulin secretion under glucotoxic conditions. To identify the 63-kd kinase, we used a unique 2-dimensional gel electrophoretic technique and MicroRotofor (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Tokyo, Japan) electrophoresis. From the molecular size of a native kinase/cyanogen bromide fragment and pI value, the 63-kd protein kinase was deduced to be CaMKIV. This was confirmed by Western blotting analysis using anti-CaMKIV antibodies. The decreased CaMKIV levels under glucotoxic conditions recovered to original levels after changing the medium to a normal glucose concentration. Recombinant CaMKIV was degraded in a Ca²+-dependent manner by incubation with cell lysates from INS-1 cells under glucotoxic conditions, and degradation was protected by calpain inhibitor. Furthermore, CaMKIV was reduced in the pancreatic islets of diabetic Otsuka Long-Evans Tokushima fatty rats, whereas that of nondiabetic Long-Evans Tokushima Otsuka rats was not. This study suggests that the abnormal regulation of CaMKIV is a component of β-cell dysfunction caused by high glucose.

Abstract
We examined the change of protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs) expression levels in colonic epithelial cells isolated from mice in which colitis was induced by oxazolone administration, using the monoclonal antibody YK34, which cross-reacts with a wide variety of PTKs. We identified focal adhesion kinase (FAK) and found the expression level increased due to the induction of colitis. Furthermore, we found that there was a positive correlation between FAK expression and the severity of colitis. Also, FAK expression localized in the colonic epithelium but not in the lamina propria, implying FAK functions in epithelial cells during colitis formation and/or wound repairing.

Abstract
Doublecortin-like protein kinase (DCLK), a Ser/Thr protein kinase predominantly expressed in brain and eyes, is believed to play crucial roles in neuronal functions. However, the regulatory mechanisms for DCLK activation and its physiological targets are still unknown. In the present study, we found that a deletion mutant consisting of the catalytic domain of zebrafish DCLK, zDCLK(377-677), exhibited the highest activity among various mutants. Since fully active zDCLK(377-677) showed essentially the same substrate specificity as wild-type zDCLK, we used it to search for physiological substrates of zDCLK. When a zebrafish brain extract was resolved by isoelectric focusing and then phosphorylated by zDCLK(377-677), a highly basic protein with a molecular mass of approximately 90 kDa was detected. This protein was identified as synapsin II by mass spectrometric analysis. Synapsin II was found to interact with the catalytic domain of zDCLK and was phosphorylated at Ser-9 and Ser-58. When synaptosomes were isolated from zebrafish brain, both synapsin II and zDCLK were found to coexist in this preparation. Furthermore, synapsin II in the synaptosomes was efficiently phosphorylated by zDCLK. These results suggest that zDCLK mediates its neuronal functions through phosphorylation of physiological substrates such as synapsin II.

Abstract
We developed a method for the detection of phosphatase activity using fluorogenic substrates after polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. When phosphatases such as Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase phosphatase (CaMKP), protein phosphatase 2C (PP2C), protein phosphatase 5 (PP5), and alkaline phosphatase were resolved by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the absence of SDS and the gel was incubated with a fluorogenic substrate such as 4-methylumbelliferyl phosphate (MUP), all of these phosphatase activities could be detected in situ. Although 6,8-difluoro-4-methylumbelliferyl phosphate (DiFMUP) as well as MUP could be used as a fluorogenic substrate for an in-gel assay, MUP exhibited lower background fluorescence. Using this procedure, several fluorescent bands that correspond to endogenous phosphatases were observed after electrophoresis of various crude samples. The in-gel phosphatase assay could also be used to detect protein phosphatases resolved by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. In this case, however, the denaturation/renaturation process of resolved proteins was necessary for the detection of phosphatase activity. This procedure could be used for detection of renaturable protein phosphatases such as CaMKP and some other phosphatases expressed in cell extracts. The present fluorescent in-gel phosphatase assay is very useful, since no radioactive compounds or no special apparatus are required.

Abstract
DNA methyltransferase 1 (Dnmt1) is an enzyme that recognizes and methylates hemimethylated CpG after DNA replication to maintain methylation patterns. Although the N-terminal region of Dnmt1 is known to interact with various proteins, such as methyl-CpG-binding protein 2 (MeCP2), the associations of protein kinases with this region have not been reported. In the present study, we found that a 110-kDa protein kinase in mouse brain could bind to the N-terminal domain of Dnmt1. This 110-kDa kinase was identified as cyclin-dependent kinase-like 5 (CDKL5) by LC-MS/MS analysis. CDKL5 and Dnmt1 were found to colocalize in nuclei and appeared to interact with each other. Catalytically active CDKL5, CDKL5(1-352), phosphorylated the N-terminal region of Dnmt1 in the presence of DNA. Considering that defects in the MeCP2 or CDKL5 genes cause Rett syndrome, we propose that the interaction between Dnmt1 and CDKL5 may contribute to the pathogenic processes of Rett syndrome.

Abstract
We isolated cDNA clones for novel protein kinases by expression screening of a cDNA library from the basidiomycetous mushroom Coprinus cinereus. One of the isolated clones was found to encode a calmodulin (CaM)-binding protein consisting of 488 amino acid residues with a predicted molecular weight of 53,906, which we designated CoPK12. The amino acid sequence of the catalytic domain of CoPK12 showed 46% identity with those of rat Ca2+/CaM-dependent protein kinase (CaMK) I and CaMKIV. However, a striking difference between these kinases is that the critical Thr residue in the activating phosphorylation site of CaMKI/IV is replaced by a Glu residue at the identical position in CoPK12. As predicted from its primary sequence, CoPK12 was found to behave like an activated form of CaMKI phosphorylated by an upstream CaMK kinase, indicating that CoPK12 is a unique CaMK with different properties from those of the well-characterized CaMKI, II, and IV. CoPK12 was abundantly expressed in actively growing mycelia and phosphorylated various proteins, including endogenous substrates, in the presence of Ca2+/CaM. Treatment of mycelia of C. cinereus with KN-93, which was found to inhibit CoPK12, resulted in a significant reduction in growth rate of mycelia. These results suggest that CoPK12 is a new type of multifunctional CaMK expressed in C. cinereus, and that it may play an important role in the mycelial growth.

Abstract
Multifunctional Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinases (CaMKs) play pivotal roles in intracellular Ca2+ signaling pathways. There is growing evidence that CaMKs are involved in the pathogenic mechanisms underlying various human diseases. In this review, we begin by briefly summarizing our knowledge of the involvement of CaMKs in the pathogenesis of various diseases suggested to be caused by the dysfunction/dysregulation or aberrant expression of CaMKs. It is widely known that the activities of CaMKs are strictly regulated by protein phosphorylation/dephosphorylation of specific phosphorylation sites. Since phosphorylation status is balanced by protein kinases and protein phosphatases, the mechanism of dephosphorylation/deactivation of CaMKs, corresponding to their 'switching off', is extremely important, as is the mechanism of phosphorylation/activation corresponding to their 'switching on'. Therefore, we focus on the regulation of multifunctional CaMKs by protein phosphatases. We summarize the current understanding of negative regulation of CaMKs by protein phosphatases. We also discuss the biochemical properties and physiological significance of a protein phosphatase that we designated as Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase phosphatase (CaMKP), and those of its homologue CaMKP-N. Pharmacological applications of CaMKP inhibitors are also discussed. These compounds may be useful not only for exploring the physiological functions of CaMKP/CaMKP-N, but also as novel chemotherapies for various diseases.

Abstract
To search for the downstream target protein kinases of Ca (2+)/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase kinase (CaMKK), we performed affinity chromatography purification of a rat brain extract using a GST-fused CaMKKalpha catalytic domain (residues 126-434) as the affinity ligand. Proteomic analysis was then carried out to identify the CaMKK-interacting protein kinases. In addition to identifying the catalytic subunit of 5'-AMP-activated protein kinase, we identified SAD-B as interacting. A phosphorylation assay and mass spectrometry analysis revealed that SAD-B was phosphorylated in vitro by CaMKK at Thr (189) in the activation loop. Phosphorylation of Thr (189) by CaMKKalpha induced SAD-B kinase activity by over 60-fold. In transfected COS-7 cells, kinase activity and Thr (189) phosphorylation of overexpressed SAD-B were significantly enhanced by coexpression of constitutively active CaMKKalpha (residues 1-434) in a manner similar to that observed with coexpression of LKB1, STRAD, and MO25. Taken together, these results indicate that CaMKKalpha is capable of activating SAD-B through phosphorylation of Thr (189) both in vitro and in vivo and demonstrate for the first time that CaMKK may be an alternative activating kinase for SAD-B.
