Protein phosphorylation was investigated in the bacterium Acinetobacter calcoaceticus both in vivo and in vitro. In cells grown with [32P]orthophosphate, several radioactive phosphoproteins were detected by gel electrophoresis and autoradiography. These proteins were shown to contain phosphoserine, phosphothreonine, and a relatively large proportion of phosphotyrosine residues. Incubation of cellular extracts with [gamma-32P] ATP also resulted in the phosphorylation of several proteins. At least four of them, namely an 81-kDa protein, were modified at tyrosine. No protein labeling occurred when extracts were incubated with [gamma-32P] ATP or [14C]ATP. Moreover, phosphoproteins were insensitive to snake venom phosphodiesterase. All together these results indicate that A. calcoaceticus harbors different protein kinases including a protein-tyrosine kinase activity. Further analysis of this activity showed that it has little, if any, functional similarity with eukaryotic protein-tyrosine kinases.
