  • Title: A cyclic GMP-dependent histone kinase bound to liver nucleoli.
    Author: Linnala-Kankkunen A, Mäenpää PH.
    Journal: Biochim Biophys Acta; 1979 Oct 18; 587(3):324-32. PubMed ID: 232990.
    Abstract:
    A method of steady-state electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gels was used to analyze the presence of cyclic nucleotide binding components in cell extracts. Multiple cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP binding components were detected in soluble cytoplasmic and nuclear extracts derived from avian liver, but only a single cyclic GMP binding protein was found in the 0.3 M NaCl extract of liver nucleoli. In the presence of cyclic GMP, this protein phosphorylated efficiently a calf thymus histone mixture and an endogenous nucleolar protein, which migrated identically with histone H4 in sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The isoelectric point of the cyclic GMP-binding protein was 4.8. Addition of cyclic GMP did not influence the activity of the endogenous nucleolar RNA polymerase.
