  • Title: [Isolation and characterization of casein kinases I and II from rabbit liver. Analysis of their effects on protein biosynthesis in the cell].
    Author: Elizarov SM, Stepanov AS.
    Journal: Biokhimiia; 1989 Mar; 54(3):409-20. PubMed ID: 2473785.
    Abstract:
    Two cAMP-independent protein kinases isolated from rabbit liver extracts phosphorylate casein far more effectively than histones. The first protein kinase consists of one polypeptide chain (Mr = 37,000), utilizes exclusively ATP and is not inhibited in the presence of low heparin and RNA concentrations. The second protein kinase consists of three subunits (Mr = 42,000, 40,000 and 25,000 Da), utilizes both ATP and GTP and is inhibited by low heparin and RNA concentrations. The latter enzyme has Mr approximately 140,000 Da and possesses a polyanion-binding activity. These characteristics allow to relate the above enzymes to casein kinases I and II, respectively. Injection of casein kinase I into frog oocytes results in the inhibition of the rate of amino acid incorporations into the soluble and detergent extractable proteins. Casein kinase II has no effect on the amino acid incorporation into the recipient oocytes.
