    Abstract:
    The ribosomal protein S6 in exocrine cells is phosphorylated during stimulation of exocytosis by cAMP-dependent or calcium-dependent agonists. Under both conditions the same tryptic S6 phosphopeptides (termed A, B, and C) were found [Padel, Kruppa, Jahn & Söling (1983) FEBS Lett. 159, 112-118]. Studies have now been made of the phosphorylation pattern of protein S6 from purified guinea pig parotid ribosomes following in vitro phosphorylation with calmodulin-dependent, phospholipid-dependent, and cAMP-dependent protein kinases. Only the phospholipid-dependent enzyme led to the phosphorylation of peptides A, B, and C, while the cAMP-dependent enzyme phosphorylated only peptides A and C, and the calmodulin-dependent enzyme did not phosphorylate any of the phosphopeptides found in S6 from unstimulated or stimulated intact cells. Guinea pig parotid microsomes contain substantial phospholipid-dependent protein kinase activity. Stimulation of intact parotid glands with tetradecanoylphorbol acetate led to a significant phosphorylation of S6 and a similar tryptic S6 phosphopeptide pattern as seen with carbamoylcholine. It is concluded that activation of phospholipid-dependent protein kinase is responsible for the phosphorylation of protein S6 during stimulation with calcium-dependent and cAMP-dependent secretagogues.
