    Abstract:
    Protein phosphokinase activity from a 0.5 M NaCl extract of purified porcine ovary nuclei has been resolved by Sephadex G-200 gel filtration into three forms of kinase, protein kinase I and III, both independent of adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP), and cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase II. Cyclic AMP-binding activity was associated with protein kinase II but not with protein kinases I and III. Protein kinases I, II, and III exhibited different cyclic nucleotide dependency and substrate specificity. Protein kinase II was inhibited by a heat-stable protein from rabbit skeletal muscle, whereas protein kinases I and III were not inhibited. According to previously established criteria [Traugh, J.A., Ashby, C.D. and Walsh, D.A. (1974) nuclear protein kinase II can be classified as cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase consisting of regulatory and catalytic subunits. Nuclear protein kinases I and III are cyclic-AMP-independent enzymes. Evidence for the identity of nuclear cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase II with cytosol (105 000 X g supernatant fraction) cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase was obtained in several ways. Nuclear and cytosol cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinases exhibited identical elution characteristics on DEAE-cellulose and Sephadex G-200 indicating that both kinases are of similar molecular size and possess similar ionic charge. Both kinases exhibited an identical Km for ATP of 8 muM, showed similar substrate specificity, and revealed similar antigenic properties. Cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase II was also identified in nuclei isolated in nonaqueous media, eliminating the possibility that the cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase activity identified in nuclei isolated in aqueous media may have arisen as the result of cytoplasmic contamination. After incubation of neonatal porcine ovaries which lack nuclear cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase with 0.1 muM 8-p-chlorophenylthio cyclic AMP, considerable cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase II activity was identified in nuclei isolated in nonaqueous media. From these data it is concluded that the nuclear cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase II is related to or identical with the ovary cytoplasmic cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase, supporting the concept that nuclear cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase is of cytoplasmic origin.
