title: Protein kinase(s) in bovine brain coated vesicles.
abstract: Purified bovine brain coated vesicles contain protein kinase activity which phosphorylates 165, 54 and 50 kDa protein substrates. These phosphorylations do not seem to be induced by a unique protein kinase: indeed, the three substrates present different localizations in coated vesicles, the phosphorylation sites are either serine or threonine residues and vanadate and ATP[gamma S] have different effects on 32P incorporation in the substrates. Comparison of the coated vesicle protein and phosphorylation patterns from different tissues and animal origins shows that only the 50 kDa protein phosphorylation is always observed, compared to the great diversity in other minor phosphorylations which are observed or not in the various coated vesicles. The possible presence of a 50 kDa phosphoprotein phosphatase is also discussed. It is suggested that the 50 kDa protein with its connected specific kinase and phosphatase seems to constitute a regulatory system present in coated vesicles.
