The radioactive polypeptides were characterized by SDS-PAGE. In the presence of Mg2+ and 5 microM [gamma-32P]ATP, rapid and transient incorporation of 32P occurred at 0 degrees C. Radioactivity was essentially found in the major polypeptide of the material, the 95 kDa subunit of (H+ + K+)-ATPase. Under the same experimental conditions, thiophosphorylation was slower and reached a plateau within 1 h. Incorporation levels were higher with manganese than with magnesium. After one hour at 0 degrees C, and in the presence of 10 mM manganese and 5 microM ATP[S], 0.58 +/- 0.06 nmoles of thiophosphate were incorporated per mg of protein. Twenty seven percent of the thiophosphorylated amino acids were acylphosphates i.e. likely to be the ATPase thiophosphointermediate. The remaining thiophosphorylated amino acids (73%) were thought to be produced by protein kinases. This was supported by the autoradiographies of membrane SDS-PAGE which indicated that, in addition to the 95 kDa ATPase subunit, other polypeptides were thiophosphorylated especially at 108, 58, 47, 45 and 36-40 kDa. A previous study had provided strong evidence that chloride transport in gastric microsomes, is modulated by a protein kinase-dependent phosphorylation (Soumarmon, A., Abastado, M., Bonfils, S. and Lewin M.J.M. (1980) J. Biol. Chem. 255, 11682-11687). In the present work, we demonstrate that the peptidic inhibitor of cAMP-dependent protein kinases decreased thiophosphorylation of a 45 kDa polypeptide. We suggest that this polypeptide could be regarded as a candidate for the role of chloride transporter or chloride transport regulator. | lld:pubmed |
