Protein kinase C phosphorylates different sites on the 20,000-Da light chain of smooth muscle heavy meromyosin (HMM) than did myosin light chain kinase (Nishikawa, M., Hidaka, H., and Adelstein, R. S. (1983) J. Biol. Chem. 258, 14069-14072). Although protein kinase C incorporates 1 mol of phosphate into 1 mol of 20,000-Da light chain when either HMM or the whole myosin molecule is used as a substrate, it catalyzes the incorporation of up to 3 mol of phosphate/mol of 20,000-Da light chain when the isolated light chains are used as a substrate. Threonine is the major phosphoamino acid resulting from phosphorylation of HMM by protein kinase C. Prephosphorylation of HMM by protein kinase C decreases the rate of phosphorylation of HMM by myosin light chain kinase due to a 9-fold increase of the Km for prephosphorylated HMM compared to that of unphosphorylated HMM. Prephosphorylation of HMM by myosin light chain kinase also results in a decrease of the rate of phosphorylation by protein kinase C due to a 2-fold increase of the Km for HMM. Both prephosphorylations have little or no effect on the maximum rate of phosphorylation. The sequential phosphorylation of HMM by myosin light chain kinase and protein kinase C results in a decrease in actin-activated MgATPase activity due to a 7-fold increase of the Km for actin over that observed with phosphorylated HMM by myosin light chain kinase but has little effect on the maximum rate of the actin-activated MgATPase activity. The decrease of the actin-activated MgATPase activity correlates well with the extent of the additional phosphorylation of HMM by protein kinase C following initial phosphorylation by myosin light chain kinase.
