We detail the purification and characterization of three distinct isoforms of PtdIns4P 5-kinase present in bovine brain. One of these, PtdIns4P 5-kinase C, was purified to apparent homogeneity, and SDS/PAGE analysis demonstrated a single polypeptide and molecular mass 53 KDa. These three isoforms were shown to differ in their kinetic properties, and immunological characterization with an antibody raised to PtdIns4P 5-kinase C demonstrated that this isoform was unrelated to the other two. Furthermore, PtdIns4P 5-kinase C was shown to be the bovine brain homologue of the Type II PtdIns4P 5-kinase previously purified from human erythrocytes [Bazenet, Ruano, Brockman & Anderson (1990) J. Biol. Chem. 265, 18012-18022].
