Adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate-dependent protein kinase from normal human adrenal.
The protein kinase of normal human adrenal cytosol has been resolved by DEAE-cellulose chromatography into two major components, the protein kinases I and II, which are both adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP) dependent. Both enzymes have similar substrate specificities, cAMP-dependency, and sensitivity to the stimulation by this nucleotide, but differ in their states of activation after preincubation with histone. The DEAE--cellulose charomatography of dissociated cytosol protein kinase reveals only one peak of kinase activity and two peaks of cAMP binding activity (A and B). Both binding proteins are able to inhibit the kinase activity of the catalytic subunit. Recombination experiments suggest that the regulatory subunit A originated from protein kinase I and subunit B from protein kinase II. The phosphorylation of histone by adrenal protein kinases is inhibited by a heat-stable protein inhibitor isolated from human fetal brain and human adult adrenal.
