pubmed:abstractText
Ca2+/calmodulin (CaM)-dependent protein kinase II is a major effector of the Ca2+ signaling pathway. It has a wide tissue distribution and phosphorylates multiple substrates. Villus enterocytes from rat ileum contain a Ca2+/CaM-dependent kinase activity that phosphorylates the exogenous neural substrate synapsin I. This phosphorylation is blocked by a specific peptide inhibitor. Antibodies made to rat brain Ca2+/CaM-dependent protein kinase II label a single band with a relative molecular mass of approximately 50 kDa in isolated rat enterocytes by immunoblot. Almost one-half of this immunoreactive protein is preferentially found in a particulate compared with a soluble subcellular fraction of the enterocytes. Virtually all of the 50-kDa band in the particulate fraction is insoluble in nonionic detergent, suggesting that the kinase is associated with the enterocyte cytoskeleton. Antibodies to Ca2+/CaM-dependent protein kinase II immunocytochemically detect fibrillar structures concentrated in the terminal web region of intestinal epithelial cells that colocalized with myosin II. This enzyme may have a role in regulating the intestinal epithelial cytoskeleton.
