  • Title: Characterization of protein phosphokinase activities in horse thyroid nuclei.
    Author: Verhaegen M, Sand G.
    Journal: Biochim Biophys Acta; 1976 Mar 11; 429(1):163-72. PubMed ID: 177064.
    Abstract:
    The distribution of protein phosphokinase (EC 2.7.1.37) activities has been established in horse thyroid nuclei. The presence of several enzyme activities has been demonstrated, two of which are clearly distinct. The first one acts on histone as substrate and is activated by cyclic AMP. Physico-chemical properties of this nuclear cyclic AMP-dependent histone kinase and of the cytosol histone kinase are different, demonstrating the absence of a contamination from the cytosol. The second enzyme acts on casein as substrate and is not stimulated by cyclic AMP POR CYCLIC GMP. The findings are consistent with the observation of thyrotropin stimulation of histone phosphorylation in thyroid nuclei.
