Changes in protein phosphorylation during the cell cycle of Chinese hamster ovary cells.
The phosphorylation patterns of proteins were examined during the cell cycle of Chinese hamster ovary cells. This was accomplished by labeling synchronized cells at various times with [32P]orthophosphate and separating the proteins by both isoelectric focusing and nonequilibrium pH gradient two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. The most dramatic changes occurred during late G2/M when approximately eight proteins (including vimentin, lamin B, and histones 1 and 3) showed increased phosphorylation. Ten other proteins appeared to be uniquely phosphorylated during late G2/M. Of these 10 proteins, seven were no longer phosphorylated shortly after mitosis. There is also at least one protein which showed a relative decrease in phosphorylation during late G2/M.
