Abstract
In an attempt to gain information about the identity of the Golgi apparatus casein kinase(s) (G-CK), responsible for the phosphorylation of caseins in lactating mammary gland, the proteins present in fractions enriched in G-CK activity eluted from DEAE-Sepharose and heparin-Sepharose columns were resolved by two-dimensional electrophoresis and analyzed by mass spectrometry. This led to the identification of 47 proteins altogether, none of which is a bona fide protein kinase. At least 9 of the identified proteins however, are readily phosphorylated by co-purifying G-CK activity, and 7 are physically associated with it to give supramolecular complex(es) of about 500 kDa as judged from Superdex S200 gel fitration and glycerol gradient ultracentrifugation experiments. In contrast, the apparent molecular weight of G-CK estimated from an in gel activity assay after SDSPAGE and renaturation is about 41 kDa. Many of the proteins phosphorylated by and/or associated with G-CK belong to the category of chaperonines, including HSP90, GRP-94 and -78, and various isoforms of protein disulfide isomerases, suggesting a global role of this kinase in the modulation of protein folding.

Abstract
Tyrosine phosphorylation by unidentified enzymes has been observed in mitochondria, with recent evidence indicating that non-receptorial tyrosine kinases belonging to the Src family, which represent key players in several transduction pathways, are constitutively present in mitochondria. The extent of protein phosphorylation reflects a coordination balance between the activities of specific kinases and phophatases. The present study demonstrates that purified rat brain mitochondria possess endogenous tyrosine phosphatase activity. Mitochondrial phosphatases were found to be capable of dephosphorylating different exogenous substrates, including paranitrophenylphosphate, (32)P-poly(Glu-Tyr)(4:1) and (32)P-angiotensin. These activities are strongly inhibited by peroxovanadate, a well-known inhibitor of tyrosine phosphatases, but not by inhibitors of alkali or Ser/Thr phosphatases, and mainly take place in the intermembrane space and outer mitochondrial membrane. Using a combination of approaches, we identified the tyrosine phosphatase Shp-2 in mitochondria. Shp-2 plays a crucial role in a number of intracellular signalling cascades and is probably involved in several human diseases. It thus represents the first tyrosine phosphatase shown to be present in mitochondria.

Abstract
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS The overall increase in proteolytic activity in diabetes is known to be associated with the development and progression of vascular complications. Our aim was to investigate in detail the molecular nature of this activity in the plasma of Type 1 diabetic subjects. METHODS Plasma of both diabetic and control subjects was subjected to various purification procedures (ion exchange and affinity chromatography, HPLC, immunoprecipitation, electrophoresis, immunoblot and mass analyses) to identify the proteins of interest. Biological activities were measured on specific substrates. RESULTS In diabetic but not normal plasma we identified the presence of two heat shock proteins, Grp94 (Glucose-regulated protein94) and HSP70. The higher-than-normal proteolytic activity of Grp94 was: (i) directed against casein, but not against endogenous plasma proteins; (ii) fully and specifically inhibited only by anti-Grp94 polyclonal antibodies; and (iii) coupled with low-level ATPase activity. In addition, ATP binding to Grp94 was able to modulate proteolytic activity. We found that Grp94 in plasma circulates only as high molecular mass homo- and hetero-complexes, the latter mostly formed with IgG to which Grp94 is also linked by tenacious binding. Proteolytically-active Grp94 was purified by immunoprecipitation, which co-immunoprecipitated alpha(1)antitrypsin. CONCLUSION/INTERPRETATION Our results show the unexpected extracellular location and characteristic biological function of Grp94 even at a late stage of disease. These findings have physiopathological relevance for predicting activation of both autoimmune and inflammatory processes potentially associated with vascular complications.

Abstract
CK2 is a pleiotropic and constitutively active serine/threonine protein kinase composed of two catalytic (alpha and/or alpha') and two regulatory beta-subunits, whose mechanism of modulation is still obscure. Here we show that CK2 alpha/alpha' subunits undergo intermolecular (trans) tyrosine-autophosphorylation, which is dependent on intrinsic catalytic activity and is suppressed by the individual mutation of Tyr182, a crucial residue of the activation loop, to phenylalanine. At variance with serine-autophosphorylation, tyrosine-autophosphorylation of CK2alpha is reversed by ADP and GDP and is counteracted by the beta-subunit and by a peptide reproducing the activation loop of CK2alpha/alpha' (amino acids 175-201). These results disclose new perspectives about the mode of regulation of CK2 catalytic subunits.

Abstract
Phosphorylation of human vescicle docking protein p115 at Ser-942 (homologous to Ser-940 in rat p115) promotes its dissociation from the Golgi membrane. Here we show that a peptide encompassing the 934--950 sequence of p115 is unaffected or poorly phosphorylated by a variety of Ser/Thr protein kinases with the notable exception of the Golgi apparatus casein kinase (G-CK) which phosphorylates it with an efficiency comparable to that of its optimal peptide substrates. In contrast phosphorylation of the p115 peptide by protein kinase CK2 is negligible compared to that of the specific peptide substrates of this kinase. Phosphorylation by G-CK is abolished if a conserved cluster of acidic residues at position between n + 4 and n + 9 (EDDDDE) is replaced by a neutral stretch (GAGAGA). These data strongly support the view that G-CK but not the other two classes of ubiquitous "casein kinases" (CK1 and CK2) is the natural phosphorylating agent of p115.

Abstract
Previous studies have shown that the Golgi apparatus casein kinase (G-CK) recognizes phosphoacceptor sites specified by the triplet SXE/Sp, which is found in several phosphoproteins, besides casein itself. In the present study, we report that G-CK can phosphorylate, with comparable efficiency, sequences surrounding Ser-22 of salivary proline-rich protein-1 (PRP1), which do not conform to the SXE/Sp motif. By using a series of peptide substrates derived from the PRP1 Ser-22 site, we also have shown that the optimal consensus sequence recognized by G-CK in this case was SXQXX(D/E)3, where the acidic residues at positions n+5 to n+7 and, to a lesser extent, the glutamine residue at position n+2 are the critical determinants.

Abstract
Treatment of intact human erythrocytes with pervanadate induces Tyr (Y)-phosphorylation of the transmembrane protein band 3; in parallel, the activity of the immunoprecipitated tyrosine kinases Syk and Lyn is increased. When erythrocytes are incubated with pervanadate together with PP1, a specific inhibitor of Src kinases, including Lyn, the Y-phosphorylation of band 3 is only partially reduced. Indeed, the PP1-resistant phosphorylation of band 3 precedes and is a prerequisite for its coimmunoprecipitation with Lyn, which interacts with the phosphoprotein via the SH2 domain of the enzyme, as proven by binding competition experiments. Upon recruitment to primarily phosphorylated band 3, Lyn catalyzes the secondary phosphorylation of the transmembrane protein. These data are consistent with the view that band 3 is phosphorylated in intact erythrocytes by both PP1-resistant (most likely Syk) and PP1-inhibited (most likely Lyn) tyrosine kinases according to a sequential phosphorylation process. Similar radiolabeled peptide maps are obtained by tryptic digestion of (32)P-band 3 isolated from either pervanadate-treated erythrocytes or red cell membranes incubated with exogenous Syk and Lyn. It has also been demonstrated by means of mass spectrometry that the primary phosphorylation of band 3 occurs at Y8 and Y21, while the secondary phosphorylation affects Y359 and Y904.

Abstract
Hematopoietic lineage cell-specific protein 1 (HS1), a tyrosine multiphosphorylated protein implicated in receptor-mediated apoptosis and proliferative responses, is shown here to become Ser/Thr phosphorylated upon incubation of platelets with radiolabeled inorganic phosphate. The in vivo Ser/Thr phosphorylation of HS1 is enhanced by okadaic acid and reduced by specific inhibitors of casein kinase (CK)2. In vitro, HS1 is an excellent substrate for either CK2 alpha subunit alone (Km = 47 nM) or CK2 holoenzyme, tested in the presence of polylysine (Km = 400 nM). Phosphorylation reaches a stoichiometry of about 2 mol phosphate per mol HS1 and occurs mainly at threonyl residue(s), mostly located in the N-terminal region, but also at seryl residue(s) residing in the central core of the molecule (208-402), as judged from experiments with deleted forms of HS1. Ser/Thr phosphorylation of HS1, either induced in vivo by okadaic acid or catalysed in vitro by CK2, potentiates subsequent phosphorylation at tyrosyl residues. These data indicate the possibility that regulation of HS1 may also be under the control of Ser/Thr phosphorylation, and suggest that in quiescent cells CK2 could play a role in inducing constitutive Tyr phosphorylation of HS1 in the absence of stimuli that activate the protein tyrosine kinase pathway.

Abstract
A phosphorylatable protein band of about 94 kDa (as judged by SDS-PAGE) which co-purifies and co-immunoprecipitates with Golgi apparatus casein kinase (G-CK) from rat lactating mammary gland has been shown by mass spectrometric sequence analysis to be identical or very similar to the glucose-regulated protein, GRP94. GRP94 is also readily phosphorylated by G-CK (K(m)=0.2 microM) at seryl sites which are different from the sites affected by casein kinase-2 (CK2) in the same protein. A study with peptide substrates would indicate that the G-CK sites in GRP94 conform to the motif S-R/K-E-X (X being different from D and E) which is not recognized by CK2.

Abstract
The catalytic (alpha) subunit of protein kinase CK2 and the hematopoietic specific protein 1 (HS1) display opposite effects on Ha-ras induced fibroblast transformation, by enhancing and counteracting it, respectively. Here we show the occurrence of physical association between HS1 and CK2alpha as judged from both far Western blot and plasmon resonance (BIAcore) analysis. Association of HS1 with CK2alpha is drastically reduced by the deletion of the HS1 C-terminal region (403-486) containing an SH3 domain. HS1, but not its deletion mutant HS1 Delta324-393, lacking a sequence similar to an acidic stretch of the regulatory beta-subunit of CK2, inhibits calmodulin phosphorylation by CK2alpha. These data indicate that HS1 physically interacts with CK2alpha and down-regulates its activity by a mechanism similar to the beta-subunit.

Abstract
Greater arachidonic acid (AA) contents, which were correlated with erythrocyte transmembrane oxalate (Ox) transport, were observed in plasma and erythrocyte membrane phospholipids of patients with idiopathic calcium renal stones, suggesting a link between membrane phospholipid fatty acid composition and cellular Ox transport. To confirm this hypothesis, the effects of exogenous red blood cell incorporation of three different fatty acids (i.e., oleic acid, AA, and eicosapentaenoic acid) on Ox transport and the phosphorylation status of band 3 protein, which has been shown to mediate red blood cell Ox flux, were investigated. Preincubation of erythrocytes with AA induced a dose-dependent increase in the phosphorylation level of band 3 protein and an increase in transmembrane Ox self-exchange. In contrast, inhibitory effects on both parameters were observed after the incorporation of oleic and eicosapentaenoic acids. These data, together with previous observations of dietary effects on erythrocyte Ox transport and urinary Ox excretion, indicate that genetic and/or nutritional changes in membrane phospholipid fatty acid composition play a crucial role in modulating cellular Ox transport in idiopathic calcium Ox nephrolithiasis.

Abstract
The hematopoietic lineage cell-specific protein HS1 was shown to undergo a process of sequential phosphorylation both in vitro and in vivo, which is synergistically mediated by Syk and Src family protein-tyrosine kinases and essential for B cell antigen receptor-mediated apoptosis. We have now identified tyrosine 222 as the HS1 residue phosphorylated by the Src family protein kinases c-Fgr and Lyn, and we show that a truncated form of HS1 (HS1-208-401) lacking the N-terminal putative DNA binding region and the C-terminal Src homology 3 (SH3) domain is still able to undergo all the steps of sequential phosphorylation as efficiently as full-length HS1. We also show that a stable association of phospho-HS1 with c-Fgr through its SH2 domain requires previous autophosphorylation of the kinase and is prevented by subsequent phosphorylation of Tyr-222. Kinetic studies with HS1 and its truncated forms previously phosphorylated by Syk and with a peptide substrate reproducing the sequence around tyrosine 222 support the view that efficient phosphorylation of HS1 by Src family protein kinases entirely relies on TyrP-SH2 domain interaction with negligible, if any, contribution of local specificity determinants. Our data indicate that the proline-rich region of HS1 bordered by tyrosyl residues affected by Syk and Src family kinases represents a functional domain designed to undergo a process of sequential phosphorylation.

Abstract
The SH2 domain of c-Fgr (class 1A) has been expressed in E. coli as GST fusion protein and tested for its ability to prevent the dephosphorylation of a variety of phosphotyrosyl (poly)peptides by three distinct protein tyrosine phosphatases (TC-PTPase, YOP, and Low Mr PTPase). Dephosphorylation of HS1 protein and of a derived phosphopeptide, HS1 (388-402), exhibiting the motif selected by class 1A SH2 domains is inhibited in a dose dependent manner with full inhibition promoted by a 2- to 3-molar excess of GST/SH2 domain irrespective of either the nature or the amount of phosphatase used. The IC50 values for inhibition of these and other phosphotyrosyl substrates roughly correlates with their expected affinity for class 1A SH2 domain. Inhibition is partially reversed by the addition of D-myo-inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate, which competes for the binding to the SH2 domains. Our data on one side show that additional mechanism(s) besides mere competition must assist PTPases to dissociate SH2-PTyr complexes and on the other suggest a role for SH2 domains in protecting phosphotyrosyl residues from premature dephosphorylation.

Abstract
Two tyrosyl residues have been reported to play a crucial role in the regulation of protein tyrosine kinases of the Src family: autophosphorylation of Tyr416 (c-Src numbering) located in the catalytic domain correlates with enzyme activation, while Csk-mediated phosphorylation of the C-terminal tyrosine Tyr527 (c-Src numbering) gives rise to inactive forms of Src kinases. Here we show that the Src-related Lyn kinase undergoes spontaneous and stoichiometric autophosphorylation at both Tyr396 (homologous to c-Src Tyr416) and Tyr507 (homologous to c-Src Tyr527). Such a doubly autophosphorylated form of Lyn is hyperactive toward peptide substrates and insensitive to Csk-induced downregulation. In contrast, doubly autophosphorylated Lyn exhibits reduced activity toward protein substrates such as phospho-p50/HS1 (hematopoietic-lineage cell-specific protein) and p57/PDI (protein disulfide isomerase related protein), whose multiple sequential/processive phosphorylation relies on the accessibility of the SH2 domain of the kinase. These data disclose a novel conformation of Lyn that is catalytically active despite the presence of an intramolecular interaction between the phosphorylated tail and the SH2 domain. This enzyme conformation is expected to display a reduced oncogenic potential resulting from its defective recognition of a subset of protein substrates whose targeting is mediated by the Lyn SH2 domain.

Abstract
An eicosapeptide encompassing the C-terminal tail of c-Src (Tyr527) which is conserved in most Src-related protein kinases, is phosphorylated by C-terminal Src kinase (CSK) and by the two Src-related protein kinases c-Fgr and Lyn, with similar kinetic constants. Two related peptides reproducing the C-terminal segments of c-Src mutants defective in CSK phosphorylation [MacAuley, A., Okada, M., Nada, S., Nakagawa, H. & Cooper, J. A. (1993) Oncogene 8, 117-124] AFLEDSCTGTEPLYQRGENL (mutant number 28) and AFLEDNFTGTKPQYHPGENL (mutant number 29), proved a better and a much worse substrates, respectively than the wild-type peptide, with either CSK or the two Src kinases. By changing individual residues in the best peptide substrate, it was shown that the main element responsible for its improved phosphorylation is leucine at position -1 (instead of glutamine), while lysine at position -3 (instead of glutamate) has a detrimental effect, possibly accounting for the negligible phosphorylation of peptide derived from mutant number 29. By contrast to most peptide substrates, including the Src C-terminal peptides, which exhibit relatively high K(m) values, a polyoma-virus-middle-T-antigen-(mT)-derived peptide with tyrosine embedded in a highly hydrophobic sequence (EEEPQFEEIPIYLELLP) exhibits with CSK a quite low K(m) value (63 microM). Consistent with this, the optimal sequence selected by CSK in an oriented peptide library is XXXIYMFFF. This is different from sequences selected by Lyn (DEEIYEELX) and c-Fgr (XEEIYGIFF), although they all share a high selection for a hydrophobic residue at n-1. In sharp contrast, TPKIIB/p38syk, related to the catalytic domain of p72syk, selects acidic residues at nearly all positions, n-1 included. These data support the notion that the features determining the specific phosphorylation of the C-terminal tyrosine residue of Src do not reside in the primary structure surrounding the target tyrosine. They also show that this site does not entirely fulfil the optimal consensus sequence recognized by CSK, disclosing the possibility that as yet unrecognized CSK targets structurally unrelated to the C-terminal tyrosine residue of Src kinases may exist.

Abstract
Hematopoietic lineage cell-specific HS1 protein is converted into a substrate for c-Fgr by previous Syk-mediated phosphorylation, at site(s) that bind to the SH2 domain of c-Fgr [Ruzzene, M., Brunati, A. M., Marin, O., Donella-Deana, A. & Pinna, L. A. (1996) Biochemistry 35, 5327-5332]. Here we show that a phosphopeptide derived from one such site, HS1-(320-329)-phosphopeptide (PEGDYpEEVLE), enhances up to tenfold, in a dose-dependent manner, the catalytic activity of c-Fgr either assayed with peptide substrates or evaluated as intermolecular autophosphorylation of c-Fgr itself. The dephosphorylated HS1-(320-329)-peptide is totally ineffective, while the stimulatory efficacy of other phosphopeptides derived from the polyoma virus middle T antigen-(393-402) sequence, c-Src, and c-Fgr autophosphorylation sites, and the C-terminal c-Src site (Tyr527) is variable and correlates reasonably well with the predicted affinity for the c-Fgr SH2 domain. Stimulation of c-Fgr catalytic activity is also promoted by the full-length HS1 protein, previously tyrosine phosphorylated by Syk, and is accounted for by an increased Vmax while the Km values are unchanged. If the normal activator of c-Fgr kinase, Mg2+, is replaced by Mn2+, stimulation by HS1-(320-329)-phosphopeptide is still observable with peptide substrates, while autophosphorylation is, in contrast, inhibited by the phosphopeptide. These findings, in conjunction with the ability of previously autophosphorylated c-Fgr to be stimulated by HS1-(320-329)-phosphopeptide, support the view that stimulation of c-Fgr by phosphopeptide is not or is not entirely a consequence of increased autophosphorylation. Interestingly, neither Syk and C-terminal Src kinase nor three other members of the Src family (Lyn, Lck, and Fyn) are susceptible to stimulation by phosphopeptide, as observed with c-Fgr. These data support the notion that c-Fgr undergoes a unique mechanism of activation promoted by tyrosine-phosphorylated polypeptide that binds to its SH2 domain. This suggests that such a mode of regulation is peculiar of protein-tyrosine kinases committed to the secondary phosphorylation of sequentially phosphorylated proteins.

Abstract
TPK-IIB is a protein kinase that is predominant in the cytosol of spleen and is characterized by a high specific activity toward acidic peptide substrates and a low auto-phosphorylation activity. A prominent 52-kDa component purifies with the kinase [Marin, O., Donella-Deana, A., Brunati, A. M., Fischer, S. & Pinna, L. A. (1991) J. Biol. Chem. 266, 17798-17803]. Here we demonstrate that the 52-kDa protein displays sequence identity with the Miller-Dieker lissencephaly protein (LIS 1). The protein is not related to any known protein kinase and lacks an ATP-binding motif. The ATP binding and phosphotransferase activities of TPK-IIB can be fully accounted for by a minor 38-kDa protein band (p38/TPK-IIB) which can be separated from the 52-kDa protein by Mono-Q/FPLC in the presence of EDTA. Sequence analysis of p38/TPK-IIB reveals a high level of similarity, if not identity, with the catalytic domain of p72syk, a protein-tyrosine kinase implicated in the activation of hematopoietic cells. Antibodies raised against the catalytic domain of p72syk, but not antibodies raised against its N-terminal segment, cross-react with p38/TPK-IIB. The peptide substrate specificity of p72syk is almost identical to that of p38/TPK-IIB, which also supports the classification of TPK-IIB as a close relative (possibly a proteolytic or alternative spliced form) of p72syk. p38/TPK-IIB, however, exhibits a specific activity which is sixfold higher than that of p72syk and appears to be 50-fold more sensitive to inhibition by heparin. Thus, the observation that Ca(2+)-dependent degradation of p72syk by particulate fraction of rat spleen is accompanied by increased catalytic activity and increased sensitivity to heparin would be consistent with the possibility that hyperactive p38/TPK-IIB might be proteolytically generated from p72syk in response to an increase of intracellular Ca2+.

Abstract
Band-3 protein (approximately 95 kDa), the major and multifunctional transmembrane protein of human erythrocytes, has been shown to be phosphorylated by endogenous Tyr-protein kinases on different Tyr residues at its N and C cytoplasmic domains. Both the added p36syk (catalytic domain of p72syk) and Lyn kinases are able to phosphorylate the isolated cytoplasmic domain of band 3 (cdb3), yielded by chymotryptic digestion of band 3 in the isolated membranes (ghosts). However, the two Tyr-protein kinases exhibited different phosphorylation behaviours when added to the isolated erythrocyte membranes. More precisely, the added p36syk markedly Tyr phosphorylates the band-3 protein, whereas the added Lyn phosphorylates it very poorly. It is of interest that Lyn can associate with membranes and markedly phosphorylate band 3 when this latter protein has been previously phosphorylated by p36syk, i.e. the p36(syk)-catalyzed phosphorylation is proposed to be a prerequisite for the association of Lyn with the membrane (likely to band 3) and for the Lyn-catalyzed phosphorylation of different band-3 Tyr sites.

Abstract
The protein tyrosine kinase p72syk readily phosphorylates hematopoietic linkage cell-specific protein p50/HS1 with high stoichiometry (up to 4 mol of Pi/mol of protein) and favorable kinetic constants (Km 77 nM, kcat 0.37 s-1), at sites that display the motif that is specifically recognized by the HS2 domains of Src tyrosine kinases. Such a phosphorylation converts p50/HS1 into a good substrate for c-Fgr, which in contrast is nearly inactive on nonphosphorylated p50/HS1. A phosphopeptide reproducing one of the main p50/HS1 site affected by p72syk, but neither its dephosphorylated derivative nor other phosphopeptides with different structure, blocks the secondary phosphorylation of phospho(p50/HS1) by c-Fgr but not its primary phosphorylation by p72syk. It also prevents the coimmunoprecipitation of phospho(HS1) with c-Fgr by anti-(c-Fgr) antibodies. In contrast the HS1[393-402] phosphopeptide is ineffective on the kinase activity of c-Fgr when tested with peptide substrates, showing that inhibition of p50/HS1 phosphorylation is not exerted at the catalytic site of c-Fgr. The sequential phosphorylation of p50/HS1 as well as its specific blockage by the HS1 phosphopeptide is also observable if c-Fgr is replaced by two other Src-related kinases, namely, Lyn and Fyn, as secondary phosphorylating agents. None of these Src-related kinases, however, can carry out the phosphorylation of p50/HS1 at the sites affected by p72syk, even after prolonged incubation. Our data suggest that sequential phosphorylation might represent a general mechanism by which p72syk and other Syk-related kinases generate substrates for Src-related protein tyrosine kinases. They also show that sequential phosphorylation (requiring the concerted action of a primary and a secondary kinases) cannot be surrogated by "processive" phosphorylation where a single kinase catalyzes both the primary and secondary phosphorylation, although both these modes of multiple phosphorylation are based on interactions between SH2 domains of the kinases and phosphotyrosyl sites of the substrate.

A comparative study of the phosphotyrosyl phosphatase specificity of protein phosphatase type 2A and phosphotyrosyl phosphatase type 1B using phosphopeptides and the phosphoproteins p50/HS1, c-Fgr and Lyn.

Abstract
The phosphotyrosyl phosphatase (PTPase) specificity of phosphotyrosyl-phosphatase-activator-(PTPA)-stimulated protein phosphatase (PP)2A(D) (rabbit muscle) and a bona fide PTP-1B (Xenopus laevis oocytes) were examined in vitro using phosphotyrosine-containing peptides, derived from the phosphorylation sites of p34cdc2, p50/HS1 protein, Abl, c-Src and c-Fgr, as well as the intact phosphoprotein p50/HS1 and the Src-related tyrosine kinases, Lyn and c-Fgr. The local specificity determinants were found to be different for both PTPases. The length of the phosphopeptides is more important for PP2A(D) than for PTP-1B, C-terminal acidic residues adjacent to the phosphotyrosine are detrimental for the PTPase activity of PP2A(D), but they do not affect the PTP-1B activity. Acidic residues at the --2 and --3 position relative to Tyr(P) primarily dictate dephosphorylation by PTP-1B. The higher-order structure of the protein substrates also differentially influences both enzymes: the phospho-octapeptide KDDEYpNPA, which reproduces the autophosphorylation site in c-Fgr (Tyr400), is only dephosphorylated by PP2A(D) if embedded in the intact protein, whereas the opposite is true for PTP-1B. Both the intact p50/HS1 phosphoprotein and the derived phosphopeptide are substrates only for PTP-1B and not for PP2A(D). Lyn and c-Fgr phosphorylated by C-terminal Src kinase (CSK) at their down-regulatory site are resistant to the action of both PTPases while the [Phe6]Src-(514-533) phosphopeptide, representing the highly similar site affected by CSK in c-Src, is readily dephosphorylated by both PTPases, although to a different extent. In vitro dephosphorylation of the c-Fgr Tyr400 site by PP2A(D) is correlated with a decreased tyrosine kinase activity towards exogenous substrates. Under experimental conditions in which both Tyr400 (autophosphorylation site) and Tyr511 (down-regulatory site) of c-Fgr are phosphorylated, PP2A(D) can reverse both phosphorylations.

Abstract
A 57-kDa protein (p57) has been purified to homogeneity from a microsomal fraction of rat spleen. It is specifically and efficiently phosphorylated by the Src-like tyrosine kinase Lyn purified from the same source with a Km of 0.34 microM. The tyrosine kinases c-Fgr, Fyn, C-terminal Src kinase and p72syk, as well as the Ser/Thr-specific cAMP-dependent protein kinase and protein kinases CK1 and CK2 do not phosphorylate p57. C-terminal Src kinase, which acts to down-regulate the Src-like protein-tyrosine kinases, almost completely prevents the protein phosphorylation catalysed by Lyn. Protein mass fingerprinting with tryptic fragments identified p57 as a protein related to protein disulfide-isomerase which belongs to the superfamily of Cys-Gly-His-Cys-containing sequences. Lyn phosphorylates tyrosine residues Y444, Y453 and Y466 which are located in a highly acidic region of the protein at the C-terminus. Upon phosphorylation, p57 forms a complex with Lyn which can be immunoprecipitated with anti-Lyn IgG. The association which occurs between the phosphorylated substrate and the SH2 domain of the kinase is consistent with the suggested 'processive phosphorylation' model, which implies that a primary phosphorylation site of the substrate binds to the SH2 domain of the enzyme and triggers the phosphorylation at secondary site(s).

Abstract
A systematic analysis reveals that out of 20 protein kinases examined, specific for either Ser/Thr or Tyr, the majority are extremely sensitive to staurosporine, with IC50 values in the low nanomolar range. A few of them however, notably protein kinases CK1 and CK2, mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase and protein-tyrosine kinase CSK, are relatively refractory to staurosporine inhibition, exhibiting IC50 values in the micromolar range. With all protein kinases tested, namely PKA, CK1, CK2, MAP kinase (ERK-1), c-Fgr, Lyn, CSK and TPK-IIB/p38Syk, staurosporine inhibition was competitive with respect to ATP, regardless of its inhibitory power. In contrast, either uncompetitive or noncompetitive kinetics of inhibition with respect to the phosphoacceptor substrate were exhibited by Ser/Thr and Tyr-specific protein kinases, respectively, consistent with a different mechanism of catalysis by these two sub-families of kinases. Computer modeling based on PKA crystal structure in conjunction with sequence analysis suggest that the low sensitivity to staurosporine of CK2 may be accounted for by the bulky nature of three residues, Val66, Phe113 and Ile174 which are homologous to PKA Ala70, Met120 and Thr183, respectively. In contrast these PKA residues are either conserved or replaced by smaller ones in protein kinases highly sensitive to staurosporine inhibition. On the other hand, His160 which is homologous to PKA Glu170, appears to be responsible for the unique behaviour of CK2 with respect to a staurosporine derivative (CGP44171A) bearing a negatively charged benzoyl substituent: while CGP44171A is 10- 100-fold less effective than staurosporine against PKA and most of the other protein kinases tested, it is actually more effective than staurosporine for CK2 inhibition, but it looses part of its efficacy if it is tested on a CK2 mutant (H160D) in which His160 has been replaced by Asp. It can be concluded from these data that the catalytic sites of protein kinases are divergent enough as to allow a competitive inhibitor like staurosporine to be fairly selective, a feature that can be enhanced by suitable modifications designed based on the structure of the catalytic site of the kinase.

Abstract
Protein tyrosine kinase p72syk purified from rat spleen has been assayed for its ability to phosphorylate a number of peptide substrates derived from naturally occurring phospho-acceptor sites. The phosphorylation efficiency is extremely variable, depending on the peptide sequence, with Km values in the 3-1500 microM range. The by far best peptide substrates, with Km values of 3 and 4 microM are those reproducing the phospho-acceptor sites of Vav and HS1 proteins, respectively. These sites include multiple acidic residues flanking tyrosine on both sides and they also display the consensus sequences (YEDL and YEEV) preferred by the SH2 domains of the Src family. Alteration of this consensus in the HS1 peptide, by replacing either the glutamic acid or valine, also reduces the phosphorylation efficiency by p72syk. Also the replacement of acidic residues at position -1 and, to a lesser extent at positions -3 and -4 (but not at positions +3 and +5) are detrimental. These observations may suggest a role of p72syk in the recruitment of ligands/substrates for the Src family enzymes. We also show that the HS1 peptide can be used for the specific monitoring of p72syk since neither the two Src-related c-Fgr and Lyn kinases (needing a hydrophobic instead of acidic residue at position -1) nor CSK appreciably phosphorylate it.

Abstract
TPK-IIB is an acidophilic protein tyrosine kinase devoid of autophosphorylation activity and unrelated to the Src family kinases [Marin, O., Donella-Deana, A., Brunati, A.M., Fischer, S. & Pinna, L. A. (1991) J. Biol. Chem. 266, 17798-17803]. Here, we describe the purification to homogeneity of a 50-kDa prominent substrate (p50) of TPK-IIB from rat spleen homogenates. Microsequence analysis of fragments from purified p50 discloses its homology to HS1, a hematopoietic-lineage cell-specific protein implicated in B-cell-antigen receptor-mediated signalling [Yamanashi, Y., Okada, M., Semba, T., Yamori, T., Umemori, H., Tsunasawa, S., Toyoshima, K., Kitamura, D., Watanabe, T. & Yamamoto, T. (1993) Proc. Natl Acad. Sci. USA 90, 3631-3635]. p50 is an excellent substrate for TPK-IIB, exhibiting very favourable kinetic constants (Km = 0.07 microM, kcat = 1.5) and incorporating up to 4 mol P/mol protein. p50 is, however, a weak substrate for the Src-related protein kinases Lyn and c-Fgr. Once phosphorylated by TPK-IIB, however, p50 is converted into a good substrate for c-Fgr and, to a lesser extent, for Lyn. p50 phosphorylated by TPK-IIB associates with c-Fgr and Lyn, as judged by co-immunoprecipitation with anti-Fgr IgG and anti-Lyn IgG, respectively. These data suggest the involvement of TPK-IIB in B-cell-antigen receptor-mediated signalling, and support the idea that phosphorylation by TPK-IIB might be a prerequisite for the recruitment of certain protein substrates by Src-related protein tyrosine kinases.

Abstract
The protein tyrosine kinase expressed by the protooncogene c-fgr is phosphorylated and down-regulated in vitro by the c-Src kinase (CSK). CSK catalyzed phosphorylation affects Tyr-511 of c-Fgr, homologous to Tyr-527 of c-Src and it prevents the autophosphorylation normally occurring at c-Fgr Tyr-400, homologous to c-Src Tyr-416. Polylysine, histones H1 and H2A and other polycationic proteins on the other hand stimulate c-Fgr activity while promoting enhanced autophosphorylation of both Tyr-400 and Tyr-511. Once phosphorylated at Tyr-511 and down-regulated by CSK, c-Fgr is no more susceptible to polylysine stimulation. Previous autophosphorylation (at Tyr-400) reduces c-Fgr susceptibility to down-regulation by CSK, although Tyr-511 can be still phosphorylated by it. If a more exhaustive autophosphorylation (of both Tyr-400 and Tyr-511) is performed in the presence of polylysine, c-Fgr becomes totally insensitive to CSK down-regulation. These data support the concept that down-regulation of c-Fgr by Tyr-511 phosphorylation is prevented if Tyr-400 is also phosphorylated and they are consistent with an outcompetition of phospho-Tyr-511 from the Src homology 2 domain by phospho-Tyr-400, which, in c-Fgr, is surrounded by an amino acid sequence divergent from that of the other Src-related protein tyrosine kinases.

Abstract
Spleen TPK-IIB is an acidophilic protein tyrosine kinase, devoid of autophosphorylation activity, whose phosphorylation of the src-peptide NEYTA is crucially specified by Glu-2[(1991) J. Biol. Chem. 266, 17798-17803]. We show that phosphothreonine, phosphotyrosine and phosphoserine are, in this order, specificity determinants even more effective than glutamic acid if they are replacing Glu-2, to give the phosphopeptides NTpYTA, NYpYTA, NSpYTA, respectively. Non-phosphorylated threonine, tyrosine and serine are conversely ineffective. Consequently also the heptapeptide GEGTYGV reproducing the phosphoacceptor and inhibitory site of p34cdc2 is not appreciably affected by TPK-IIB, unless its threonyl residue is previously phosphorylated, the phosphoderivative GEGTpYGV being readily phosphorylated at its tyrosyl residue. Such a behaviour is unique for TPK-IIB among the protein tyrosine kinases tested (lyn-TPK, fgr-TPK and EGF-receptor, besides TPK-IIB). These data provide the first evidence that, in some instances, the targeting by protein tyrosine kinases can be specifically determined by the previous phosphorylation of the peptide substrate, thus extending the concept of 'hierarchal phosphorylation' [(1991) J. Biol. Chem. 266, 14139-14142] to tyrosyl residues as well.

Abstract
TPK-III, a tyrosine-protein-kinase fraction previously isolated from rat spleen [Brunati, A. M. & Pinna, L. A. (1988) Eur. J. Biochem. 172, 451-457] has been further purified and resolved by Mono-Q FPLC into two homogeneous compounds, Q1 and Q2, with molecular mass approximately 52 kDa, exhibiting high specific activities for phosphate incorporation into the phosphoacceptor substrate poly(Glu80Tyr20) (1194 nmol.min-1 x mg-1 and 579 nmol.min-1 x mg-1, respectively). Both Q1 and Q2 appear to be scr-related enzymes since they are readily recognised by anti-SEEP serum raised against the highly conserved segment at positions 330-345 of p60c-scr. Q1, but not Q2, interacts with a specific antibody raised against the N-terminal segment of p55c-fgr. Microsequence analysis of tryptic fragments generated from Q1 revealed five peptides which exactly overlap the expected segments of p55c-fgr. Two of these peptides were not entirely conserved in any of the other src-related tyrosine protein kinases. A sixth fragment is very similar, albeit not identical, to the C-terminus of p55c-fgr. Microsequence analysis of two tryptic fragments from the other TPK-III fraction, Q2, provided the sequences FQILNSSE and LTTQETGYIPSNY, which are identical to two segments of fyn not entirely conserved in any of the other src-related tyrosine protein kinases. These results provide evidence that the spleen tyrosine-protein-kinase fraction, conventionally designated TPK-III, is composed of products from two proto-oncogenes, one of which corresponds to fyn, while the other is either identical or very closely related to c-fgr.

Abstract
Polyclonal antibodies have been raised against two synthetic peptides reproducing the 48-64 and 353-369 sequences of CSK, a protein tyrosine kinase implicated in the down-regulation of src-related protein kinases. Both antibodies specifically recognize recombinant CSK and a CSK-related 49 kDa protein tyrosine kinase present in spleen but they do not cross-react with purified TPK-IIB, a spleen protein tyrosine kinase sharing with CSK catalytic activity toward src kinases and incapability to autophosphorylate. CSK and TPK-IIB once resolved from each other by heparin-Sepharose affinity chromatography, display opposite specificities toward synthetic peptides reproducing the sequences around the main phosphoacceptor residues of pp60c-src, namely Tyr-416 and Tyr-527. These data support the view that TPK-IIB and CSK may exert opposite effects on the activity of src-related protein tyrosine kinases.

Abstract
A tyrosine protein kinase (TPK-I), isolated from rat spleen [Brunati, A. M. & Pinna, L. A. (1988) Eur. J. Biochem. 172, 451-457] and recently identified as the product of the lyn oncogene [Brunati, A. M., Donella-Deana, A., Ralph, S., Marchiori, F., Borin, G., Fischer, S. & Pinna, L. A. (1991) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 1901, 123-126], is stimulated by a variety of effectors, including poly(lysine), heparin and very high NaCl concentrations. The efficacy of these compounds is variably dependent on the nature of the phosphoacceptor peptide substrates. Here we show that poly(lysine), but neither NaCl nor heparin, specifically enhances the phosphorylation efficiency of lyn TPK for the peptide EDNEYTA (src peptide). It reproduces the main autophosphorylation site of pp60c-src (Tyr416), which is entirely conserved in lyn TPK. The favourable effect of poly(lysine) is accounted for by both a dramatic drop of the Km value (70 microM versus 670 microM) and more than a threefold increase in Vmax. The effect is not so evident with a variety of different peptides, either unrelated to the src peptide (e.g. angiotensin II, AAYAA) or derived from the src peptide by single or multiple substitutions of the residues located on the N-terminal side of tyrosine. In particular, the responsiveness to poly(lysine) is dramatically reduced whenever alanine is replaced for either asparagine at position -2 or glutamic acid at position -1, either in the src heptapeptide or in its shorter derivative, the pentapeptide NEYTA. In sharp contrast, the favourable effect of 2 M NaCl, which is invariably accounted for only by an increased Vmax, is especially evident with peptides like angiotensin II and AAYAA, whose phosphorylation is less sensitive to poly(lysine) stimulation. The phosphorylation of the src peptides are actually inhibited rather than stimulated by 2 M NaCl. Consistent with this, lyn TPK autophosphorylation is also dramatically stimulated by poly(lysine) while being inhibited by 2 M NaCl. These data show that poly(lysine) deeply alters the selectivity of lyn TPK by conferring to it an enhanced activity and an especially high affinity toward peptides that reproduce the conserved autophosphorylation site of the TPK of the src family. It is suggested that endogenous compound, whose effect is mimicked by poly(lysine) in vitro, may play a relevant role in determining the specificity of lyn TPK in vivo and possibly of other TPK of the src family.

Abstract
TPK-IIB, a spleen tyrosine protein kinase devoid of autophosphorylation activity (Brunati, A. M., and Pinna, L. A. (1988) Eur. J. Biochem. 172, 451-457), has been purified to near homogeneity and assayed for its ability to phosphorylate the synthetic peptides EDNEYTA and EPQYQPA reproducing the two conserved phosphoacceptor sites of pp60c-src (Tyr-416 and Tyr-527). While EPQYQPA was phosphorylated with low efficiency (Km = 16.7 mM, Kcat = 14.4), EDNEYTA is an excellent substrate displaying a Km value of 58 microM and a Kcat value of 31.2. The single substitution, in the latter peptide, of the glutamic acid adjacent to the tyrosine by alanine to give EDNAYTA caused a 6-fold increase in the Km. The positive influence on the phosphorylation of the acidic residues at -3 and -4 relative to the tyrosine is indicated by comparison of the kinetic constants for peptides EDAAYAA (Kcat = 4.6, Km 0.325 mM) and QNAAYAA (Kcat 2.4, Km 1.7 mM). Furthermore, when residues in the peptide NEYTA were replaced by alanine, the phosphorylation of the peptides NAYTA and AAYAA, was almost negligible (in terms of Kcat/Km ratio). However, AEYTA, NEYAA and AEYAA were still phosphorylated, albeit less efficiently than NEYTA. The probability that these peptides will adopt a beta-turn is EDNAYTA = EDNEYTA, NAYTA greater than NEYTA, and no predicted beta-turn for AEYTA, NEYAA, and AEYAA. Therefore these results support the concept that an amino-terminal acidic residue(s) is strictly required by TPK-IIB, irrespective of peptide conformation, although a beta-turn may enhance the phosphorylation of those peptides that satisfy this requirement. Two other spleen tyrosine kinases, TPK-I/lyn and TPK-III, both related to the src family, also have a far greater preference for the peptide EDNEYTA over EPQYQPA. However, they can be distinguished from TPK-IIB by their lower affinity for the peptides EDNEYTA and NEYTA and by their different specificity towards the substituted derivatives of NEYTA. TPK-I/lyn, accepts most of the substitutions that are detrimental to TPK-IIB, the triply substituted peptide AAYAA being actually preferred over the parent peptide NEYTA. The substitution of glutamic acid by alanine is also tolerated by TPK-III, although, in contrast to TPK-IIB, the phosphorylation efficiency is drastically decreased by the substitution of the asparagine at position -2.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
20 synthetic peptides, each of which includes a tyrosyl residue flanked by either neutral or acidic amino acids in different proportions and at variable positions, have been employed as model substrates for investigation of the site specificity of three tyrosine protein kinases previously isolated from spleen [Brunati, A. M. & Pinna, L. A. (1988) Eur. J. Biochem. 172, 451-457] and conventionally termed TPK-I, TPK-IIB and TPK-III. Comparison of the phosphorylation efficiencies shows that each tyrosine protein kinase is considerably different from the others in both the stringency and the nature of its specificity determinants. By considering, in particular, the kinetic constants obtained with the pentapeptides AAYAA, EEYAA, AEYAA, EAYAA, with the tetrapeptides AYAA and EYAA and with the tripeptides AYA and EYA, it turns out that N-terminal acidic residue(s) are only essential with TPK-IIB for efficient phosphorylation with multiple residues displaying a synergistic effect. The very similar Km (130 microM) but 14-fold-different Vmax values with YEEEEE vs. EEEEEY indicate that an N-terminal rather than C-terminal location of acidic residues is required for a high phosphorylation rate with, though not for binding to TPK-IIB. Acidic residues decrease the phosphorylation rate with TPK-I, a kinase related to the src family which is immunologically indistinguishable from the lyn TPK; they are nearly ineffective, however, with TPK-III, the least specific of the tyrosine protein kinases, which exhibits appreciable activity toward tripeptides and dipeptides like GAY and AY which are not significantly affected by TPK-I and TPK-IIB. While the peptide substrate specificity of TPK-I is similar to that of TPK-IIA, a spleen tyrosine protein kinase previously considered [Brunati, A. M., Marchiori, F., Ruzza, P., Calderan, A., Borin, G. & Pinna, L. A. (1989) FEBS Lett. 254, 145-149], the remarkable requirement of TPK-IIB alone for acidic peptides may suggest the involvement of this enzyme, which is also unique in its failure to autophosphorylate, in the phosphorylation of the highly conserved and quite acidic phosphoacceptor sites of the src family protein kinases.

Abstract
The octapeptide E-E-K-E-Y-H-A-E, corresponding to the amino acid sequence 841-845 of EGF receptor, whose tyrosine-845 is homologous to the main phosphorylation site of pp60v-src, has been synthesized together with seven shorter peptides encompassing variable segments around the tyrosine residue. The peptides have been employed as model substrates for inspecting the local structural determinants of three tyrosine protein kinases (TPKs), namely; TPK-IIB and TPK-III, isolated from lymphoid cells (Eur. J. Biochem. 172, 451-457 (1988] and the TPK encoded by the oncogene of Abelson murine leukemia virus. The phosphorylation order with the different peptide substrates is variable depending on the TPK used: in particular, the lysine residue at position -2 relative to tyrosine proved especially harmful with TPK-IIB, the peptides K-E-Y-H and K-E-Y-H-A-E being very poor substrates compared with their shorter derivatives devoid of the N-terminal lysine (E-Y-H and E-Y-H-A-E, respectively). Conversely, such a basic residue is well tolerated by the other two TPKs. The negative effect of the N-terminal lysine on TPK-IIB-catalyzed phosphorylation is accounted for by an increase of Km and can be overcome by the presence of additional glutamic acid(s) on that side. On the other hand, the C-terminal acidic doublet Ala-Glu specifically impairs the phosphorylation efficiency of abl-TPK, by lowering the Vmax value, the heptapeptide E-K-E-Y-H-A-E being much less readily phosphorylated than E-K-E-Y-H. Collectively, these results would indicate that the site specificity of tyrosine protein kinases results from the balance of positive and negative determinants whose influence on the catalytic activity of the individual enzymes can differ greatly.

Abstract
Tyrosine-protein kinase, phosphorylating tyrosine residues of transmembrane band 3 protein, has been partially purified from human erythrocyte cytosol by DEAE-Sepharose chromatography followed by heparin-Sepharose chromatography. Such a Tyr-protein kinase (36 kDa), as distinct from the Ser/Thre-protein kinases (casein kinase S and TS), appears to display a broader site specificity than does the previously described human erythrocyte P-Tyr-protein phosphatase, dephosphorylating band 3 protein. That is, it is able to phosphorylate not only the highly acidic copolymer poly(Glu-Tyr) but also angiotensin II, lacking an acidic amino acid sequence around the target Tyr residue. Moreover, the phosphorylation of these two substrates exhibits a different pH dependence and a different response to NaCl and 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate. These results suggest that in intact erythrocytes the cytosolic Tyr-protein kinase might phosphorylate band 3 not only on Tyr-8, surrounded by several acidic side-chains (as demonstrated preferentially to occur in isolated ghosts), but also on other Tyr residues surrounded by other amino acid sequences.

Abstract
Four distinct tyrosine protein kinases active on poly(Glu4,Tyr1) and angiotensin II, and operationally termed TPK-I, TPK-IIA, TPK-IIB and TPK-III have been resolved and partially purified from rat spleen particulate fraction by combining DEAE-Sepharose, heparin-Sepharose, phosphocellulose and polylysine-agarose chromatographies. Once partially purified all of them are free of Ser/Thr-specific protein kinase activity as judged using casein, histones, protamine and the peptide Arg-Arg-Ala-Ser-Val-Ala as substrates. TPK-I (apparent molecular mass 64 kDa, by gel filtration) and TPK-IIA (54 kDa) share several properties, including substrate specificity and stimulation by heparin; the latter however is much more responsive to polylysine then the former (10- and 3-fold maximum stimulation, respectively). Conversely TPK-IIB (51 kDa) is markedly inhibited by heparin and it is also characterized by its unique substrate specificity: unlike the other three tyrosine protein kinases it by far prefers the tetrapeptide Glu-Tyr-Ala-Ala over the decapeptide Asp-Ala-Glu-Tyr-Ala-Ala-Arg-Arg-Arg-Gly and readily phosphorylates band-3 protein of red cell membrane. The unusual preference for Mg2+ over Mn2+ as activator and the capability to phosphorylate calmodulin distinguish TPK-III (61 kDa) from the other isoenzymes. Moreover TPK-III is insensitive to heparin and polylysine and is inhibited by quercetin much more efficiently than the other enzymes (I50 = 10 microM). Upon incubation with [gamma-32P]ATP, TPK-I, TPK-IIA and TPK-III give rise to alkali-stable radiolabeled components of 61, 55 and 52 kDa respectively, as evaluated by PAGE/SDS. In every case such a radiolabeling takes place also in the presence of a large excess of phosphorylatable substrate (angiotensin II) while it is readily reversed by isotopic dilution with 10-fold excess unlabeled ATP, supporting the view that it represents an autophosphorylation process. No (auto)phosphorylation product(s) could be detected in TPK-IIB even if its amount, in terms of catalytic activity, was 10-fold higher than that of the others.

Abstract
Ten distinct protein kinases have been tested for their ability to phosphorylate calmodulin. Only casein kinase-2 and a spleen tyrosine protein kinase (TPK-III) proved effective, their phosphorylation efficiency being dramatically enhanced by histones and other polybasic peptides while being depressed by 50 microM Ca2+. Phosphorylation by CK-2 takes place with a Km of 12 microM calmodulin, leading to the incorporation of more than 1.5 mol P/mol substrate. Ser81 and Thr79 are among the residues affected. On the other hand, the two tyrosyl residues of calmodulin are both phosphorylated by TPK-III, Tyr99 being preferred over Tyr138.

Abstract
Human erythrocyte membranes exhibit, in addition to "acid" p-nitrophenyl-phosphatase activity, remarkable phosphotyrosyl-protein phosphatase activity, assayed on synthetic polymer poly (Glu-Tyr) 4:1, previously phosphorylated on Tyr residues by rat spleen tyrosine-protein kinase. The results reported here indicate that such a 32P-Tyr-phosphatase activity, rather than p-nitrophenyl-phosphatase, is involved in the dephosphorylation of transmembrane band 3 protein on 32P-tyrosine residues.

Abstract
Five different types of protein kinase activities have been evaluated in cell lines from murine lymphomas induced by Abelson leukemia virus (A-MuLV), whose oncogene codes for a tyrosine protein kinase. Such activities were compared with those of normal cells and of cells transformed by Moloney leukemia virus (M-MuLV), lacking oncogene sequences in its genome. While cAMP-dependent protein kinase and casein kinase-1 do not undergo significant changes, casein kinase-2 rises in both A-MuLV and M-MuLV infected lymphocytes, becoming largely associated with the particulate fraction of transformed cells. Protein kinase-C on the other hand is unchanged in M-MuLV transformed cells but it undergoes a 2-3-fold increment in both soluble and particulate fractions of A-MuLV transformed lymphocytes, which also display high tyrosine protein kinase activity.

Abstract
Phosphotyrosyl-protein phosphatase activity of human erythrocyte cytosol can be resolved into two fractions by DEAE-cellulose chromatography followed by P-cellulose chromatography. Both 32P-Tyr-phosphatases are able to dephosphorylate 32P-Tyr of poly (Glu-Tyr) 4:1 but not angiotensin II and synthetic peptide Asp-Ala-Glu-Tyr-Ala-Ala-Arg-Arg-Gly, previously phosphorylated on tyrosine residues by rat spleen tyrosine-protein kinase. Both 32P-Tyr-phosphatase activities distinctly differ from either 32P-Ser-casein phosphatase activity or "acid" and "alkaline" p-nitrophenylphosphatase activities with regard to catalytic and physico-chemical properties such as substrate specificity, chromatographic behaviour, response to various effectors.

Abstract
Three phosphotyrosine protein phosphatases (PTP-I PTP-II and PTP-III) inhibited by Zn2+ and active on the phosphotyrosyl residues included into the acidic co-polymer poly (Glu, Tyr) 4:1 previously phosphorylated by a spleen tyrosyl kinase have been resolved and partially purified from rat spleen cytosol by DEAE cellulose chromatography followed by phosphocellulose chromatography and/or Ultrogel AcA 44 gel filtration. PTP-I (Mr 65,000 by gel filtration) was purified about 1000 folds. It is stimulated by EDTA and unaffected by either vanadate (50 microM) or molybdate (up to 25 microM). PTP-II (Mr 30,000) and PTP-III (Mr 50,000) are insensitive to EDTA and inhibited by molybdate. In addition PTP-III is also inhibited by vanadate.

Abstract
Three peaks of tyrosine protein kinase activity (TK-I, TK-II and TK-III) can be resolved when the extract of rat spleen particulate fraction is subjected to DEAE-cellulose gradient chromatography. TK-I and TK-II, insensitive to both EGF and insulin, have been further purified by Sephacryl S200 gel filtration and characterized. TK-I has an apparent mR of 65000, by far prefers Mn2+ over Mg2+ as activator, can use GTP besides ATP as phosphate donor and is stimulated 2-3-fold by polylysine. TK-II, whose mR approximates 50000, is equally activated by Mg2+ and Mn2+, does not use GTP and is insensitive to polylysine. TK-I and TK-II can phosphorylate the synthetic peptide Asp-Ala-Glu-Tyr-Ala-Ala-Arg-Arg-Arg-Gly (as well as its derivative with Orn in place of Arg), angiotensin II and poly(Glu, Tyr) 4:1 which exhibits different km values with TK-I and TK-II, (100 and 10 microM, respectively). When TK-I was incubated with [gamma-32P]ATP and MnCl2 a doublet of alkali-stable radiolabeled bands with molecular masses of 55 and 60 kDa were observed. Under identical conditions TK-II gives rise to a single alkali-stable radiolabeled band of 51 kDa, which may represent the autophosphorylation product of TK-II itself.

Abstract
Highly purified repressible acid phosphatase from Saccharomyces cerevisiae very efficiently dephosphorylates 32P-histones and the phosphopeptides Arg-Arg-Ala-Ser-(32P)-Val-Ala and Arg-Arg-Leu-Ser (32P)-Leu-Arg previously phosphorylated by either cAMP-dependent protein kinase or protein kinase-C. The Km values (0.03-1 microM) are very favourable if compared with those calculated for free phosphoaminoacids and p-nitrophenylphosphate which are three to six orders of magnitude higher. While also the phosphopeptide Asp-Ala-Gly-Tyr(32P)-Ala-Arg3-Gly is readily dephosphorylated, other phosphopeptides and phosphoproteins including phosphorylase kinase, phosvitin and casein phosphorylated by both casein kinase 1 and 2 are not appreciably affected by acid phosphatase. It is suggested that yeast repressible acid phosphatase may act in vivo as a phosphoprotein phosphatase.

Abstract
Rat liver type-2 casein kinase-TS (Ck-TS) is unevenly distributed among the different components of the rat liver post-mitochondrial particulate fraction: while it accounts for the whole casein kinase activity of protein-glycogen particles, it is absent in the microsomal membranes (exhibiting exclusively casein kinase activity of type-1) and coexists with type-1 casein kinase in ribosomes. At least seven proteins whose phosphorylation is promoted by Ck-TS have been detected in these fractions. The only important target of Ck-TS in protein-glycogen particles is a rather heterogeneous protein of Mr around 85000 which has been identified as glycogen synthase. Two polypeptides of Mr about 16000, possibly identifiable with acidic proteins P1 and P2, and an unidentified protein of Mr about 35000 are the main ribosomal substrates of Ck-TS. Three protein bands of Mr 52000, 79000 and 91000 are also very efficiently phosphorylated whenever the microsomal membranes, devoid of intrinsic casein kinase-2, are incubated with cytosolic Ck-TS. These membrane-bound radiolabeled proteins require deoxycholate for their solubilization: they are very acidic, according to their high affinity for DEAE-cellulose, and give rise to partially superimposable [32P]peptide maps, suggesting extensive homologies among them. They also exhibit a low affinity Ca2+ binding activity comparable to that of calsequestrin.

Abstract
The hexapeptide (Arg)2-Pro-Thr-Pro-Ala (T1) and octapeptide (Arg)2-Pro-Thr-Pro-Ala (T5), reproducing the phosphorylatable site of protein phosphatase inhibitor-1, a physiological target of cAMP-dependent protein kinase, and five related peptides were synthesized by the method in solution. The phosphorylation rates of such peptides by cAMP-dependent protein kinase and their kinetic parameters have been determined and compared with those of the hexapeptide (Arg)2-Ala-Ser-Val-Ala, reproducing the phosphorylatable site of rat liver pyruvate kinase. The results obtained show that both the presence of threonine instead of serine and the adjacent C-terminal proline represent highly unfavourable factors seriously impairing the protein kinase reaction by both increasing Km and depressing V. On the other hand the N-terminal proline is compatible with high phosphorylation rates and the row of four rather than two consecutive arginines improves the phosphorylation efficiency by lowering tenfold the Km, without affecting the V. The extension of the hexapeptide T1 on its C-terminal side to give the derivative (Arg)2-Pro-Thr-Pro-Ala-Thr-Val-Ala has no significant effect on the kinetic parameters. Moreover no relationship between the phosphorylation efficiency and the predicted secondary structures around the target residue could be evidenced. Therefore the local structural features of the phosphorylatable site of inhibitor-1 cannot fully account for the fast phosphorylation of this regulatory protein. Other factors must optimize the protein kinase reaction.

Abstract
Rat liver casein kinase TS (Ck-TS) having quaternary structure alpha 2 beta 2, autophosphorylates at its 25 kDa, beta-subunits, incorporating up to 1.2 mol P/mol enzyme. According to their effects on the autophosphorylation pattern the effectors of Ck-TS activity can be grouped into 3 classes: (i) inhibitors, like heparin, which also prevent the autophosphorylation of the beta-subunit; (ii) stimulators possessing several amino groups (like spermine) which increase the autophosphorylation at the beta-subunit; (iii) stimulators possessing several guanido groups, like protamines and related peptides, which prevent the phosphorylation of the beta-subunit, while promoting the autophosphorylation of the 38 kDa alpha-subunit. In the presence of such polyarginyl effectors the 130 kDa Ck-TS is converted into forms with higher sedimentation coefficient.
