Casein kinase II, cyclin-dependent kinases, and glycogen synthase kinase-3 are members of the protein kinase subfamily with a prominent insert in domain X of their catalytic subunit sequence. The function of the insert sequence in casein kinase II was investigated utilising synthetic peptides corresponding to the insert, cross-linking experiments, and the generation of casein kinase II insert region mutants. The mutation of basic residues (R276-->A, R278-->A, R281-->A, K277-->A) within the major insert sequence (PRFHDILQRHSRKRWERFVHSDNQHL, positions 265-290) did not affect alpha/beta subunit association, enzyme tetramerisation, thermal stability, and peptide (RRRDDDSDDD-NH2) phosphorylation. Similarly, replacement of residues 276-290 within the major insert with the corresponding residues from the cell-cycle kinase cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (CDK2) (FPKWKPGSLASHVKN) had no significant effect. The mutation of charged residues (H232-->A, H234-->A, D235-->A) within a nearby minor insert sequence (HGHDNY, positions 232-237), or replacement of residues 234-237 with the corresponding residues from CDK2 (DSEI) also did not affect alpha/beta subunit association and tetramerisation, but reduced enzyme thermal stability to more closely resemble the stability of the isolated alpha-subunit. In addition, mutations within the minor insert caused approximately a threefold increase in the apparent Km for peptide substrate. The results indicate that the major and minor inserts are not essential for alpha/beta subunit association, but the minor insert region influences substrate binding and thermal stability.
