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

Selective antagonists of myosin light chain kinase (MLCK) [e.g. ML-7; 1-(5-iodonaphthalene-1-sulphonyl)-1H-hexahydro-1,4-diazepine hydrochloride] were found to inhibit superoxide (O2-) release from stimulated neutrophils. The concentrations of ML-7 that were inhibitory were substantially lower than those reported for a selective antagonist of protein kinase C [i.e. H-7; 1-(5-isoquinolinesulphonyl)-2-methylpiperazine dihydrochloride]. ML-7 also reduced the phosphorylation of the 47 kDa subunit of the NADPH-oxidase system (p47-phox) and blocked translocation of this protein to the Triton X-100-insoluble fraction in stimulated cells. Interestingly, ML-7 also inhibited O2- production in a cell-free system derived from neutrophils at concentrations similar to those that were effective in vivo. This cell-free system does not require ATP and is insensitive to all other inhibitors of protein kinases tested, including some highly effective against MLCK (i.e. staurosporine). Thus, the data suggest that ML-7 does not block O2- release by inhibiting a protein kinase but instead may interact directly with a subunit of the oxidase. The binding site for ML-7 may provide a valuable target for inhibiting the inflammatory properties of phagocytic leucocytes by naphthalenesulphonamides designed to lack activity against protein kinases.

Studies were carried out to elucidate the mechanisms underlying the diminished phosphorylation of cerebral ribosomal protein in experimental hyperphenylalaninaemia [Roberts & Morelos (1980) Biochem. J.190, 405–419]. Administration of N6,O2′-dibutyryl cyclic AMP or 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine, which increased phosphorylation of the S6 protein of cerebral 40S ribosomal subunits in control infant rats, did not counteract the decreased phosphorylation of this ribosomal protein resulting from intraperitoneal administration of a loading dose of l-phenylalanine. N2,O2′-Dibutyryl cyclic GMP had no effect on cerebral ribosomal-protein phosphorylation in either control or hyperphenylalaninaemic animals. The phenylalanine-induced decrease in ribosomal-protein phosphorylation was associated with decreased protein kinase activity in cerebral cytosolic and microsomal preparations. However, the maximal protein kinase response to cyclic AMP added in vitro was unaltered by prior administration of phenylalanine in vivo. The heat-stable protein inhibitor of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinases decreased the activity of these enzymes by about 90% and eliminated the phenylalanine-induced difference in protein kinase activity in the absence of added cyclic AMP. Intracisternal administration of doses of dibutyryl cyclic AMP or 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine which increased the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase activity ratio in control infant rats was without effect on this index in phenylalanine-treated animals. Dibutyryl cyclic GMP had no effect on the protein kinase activity ratio in either group of animals. These results suggest that inhibition of cerebral cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinases by abnormally high concentrations of phenylalanine may contribute to the decrease in cerebral ribosomal-protein phosphorylation in experimental hyperphenylalaninaemia.
