  • Title: Isolation and solubilization of casein kinase from Golgi apparatus of bovine mammary gland and phosphorylation of peptides.
    Author: Szymanski ES, Farrell HM.
    Journal: Biochim Biophys Acta; 1982 Apr 03; 702(2):163-72. PubMed ID: 6952938.
    Abstract:
    Phosphate incorporation from [gamma-32P]ATP into native and dephosphorylated alpha s1-casein is catalyzed by a casein kinase localized in the Golgi apparatus of lactating bovine mammary gland. Casein kinase from the Golgi is activated with either Mg2+ or Ca2+, and increased specific activity is observed with dephosphorylated casein as the substrate. The casein kinase can be solubilized from Golgi apparatus by the non-ionic detergent, Triton X-100. Gel permeation chromatography on Sepharose CL-4B yields a Stokes radius of 10 nm for the detergent-solubilized casein kinase. Dephosphorylated beta-peptide, the amino-terminal peptide from beta-casein, is a good substrate for the solubilized casein kinase. With dephosphorylated beta-peptide, the maximal velocity is 9.1 and 12.0 nmol/min per mg protein with Mg2+ and Ca2+ activation, respectively. The Michaelis constant for beta-peptide is greater with Ca2+ than with Mg2+ (4.8 mg/ml compared to 0.97 mg/ml). However, the Michaelis constant for ATP is not greatly influenced by these metal ions. The Triton X-100-solubilized Golgi enzyme can also catalyze the phosphorylation of peptides, such as fibrinopeptide A and alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone.
