Biological Activity
| Targets | PKC |
| ln Vitro |
The structures of four new protein kinase C inhibitors of microbial origin, K-252a, K252b, c and d were determined by spectral studies and chemical conversion.[1] These phosphorylation reactions were inhibited by a cell-impermeable ectokinase inhibitor, K252b, and cell surface phosphorylation was also inhibited by exogenously added OPN and BSP substrates, indicating competition for the ectokinase enzyme. However, phosphorylation of OPN and BSP, both of which can mediate cell attachment through Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) motifs, was not inhibited by an RGD peptide, suggesting that binding of OPN and BSP to cell surface integrins is not required. In similar experiments, ectokinase-mediated phosphorylation of OPN and BSP was demonstrated during mineralized tissue formation by FRCCs in vitro. These studies demonstrate that OPN and BSP secreted by bone cells are phosphorylated by a casein kinase II-like ectokinase present on the surface of osteoblastic cells[3]. |
| ln Vivo | 1. ACh release from motor nerve endings in diaphragms of rats treated chronically with alpha-bungarotoxin (alpha-BuTX) is upregulated at the level of the individual endplate. Involvement of protein kinases in this mechanism of synaptic adaptation was investigated. 2. Miniature endplate potentials (MEPPs) and endplate potentials (EPPs) were recorded after mu-conotoxin treatment, which prevents muscle action potentials. The quantal content at endplates was calculated 'directly', i.e. by dividing the EPP amplitude by the MEPP amplitude. 3. Incubation of muscles from control and alpha-BuTX-treated rats with H-7, a protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor, reduced MEPP amplitudes but had no clear effect on quantal contents. Polymyxin B, another PKC inhibitor, had a similar effect on muscles from alpha-BuTX-treated rats. 4. Incubation of muscles from alpha-BuTX-treated rats with K252a, a broad-spectrum protein kinase inhibitor of, amongst others, PKC, Ca(2+)-calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) and neurotrophin receptor tyrosine kinases, resulted in a 30% decrease of the quantal content. However, K252a did not change the quantal content of controls. Incubations with the closely related compound K252b, which has an exclusively extracellular action, had a similar effect. 5. KN62, a specific inhibitor of CaMKII, decreased the mean quantal content of muscles from alpha-BuTX-treated rats by 18%. 6. Tyrphostin 51, a selective tyrosine kinase inhibitor, had no effect on quantal contents of muscles from alpha-BuTX-treated and control rats. However, it increased the frequency and amplitude of MEPPs in muscles from alpha-BuTX-treated rats, leaving those of controls unchanged. 7. The extent of reduction of quantal content, caused by K252a, K252b and KN62, varied between endplates of individual muscles from alpha-BuTX-treated rats; quantal contents at endplates with small MEPPs were more sensitive than those at endplates with large MEPPs. 8. It is concluded that PKC does not play a role in the mechanism of upregulation of ACh release at endplates of alpha-BuTX-treated rats. Instead, CaMKII and some tyrosine kinases in the presynaptic membrane, as well as in the cytoplasm, might be involved[2]. |

| Additional Infomation |
K-252b is an indolocarbazole. 9,12-Epoxy-1H-diindolo[1,2,3-fg:3',2',1'-kl]pyrrolo[3,4-i][1,6]benzodiazocine-10-carboxylicacid, 2,3,9,10,11,12-hexahydro-10-hydroxy-9-methyl-1-oxo-, (9S,10R,12R)- has been reported in Nocardiopsis with data available. Osteopontin (OPN) and bone sialoprotein (BSP) are phosphorylated glycoproteins that, together with osteonectin/secreted protein, acidic, rich in cysteine (SPARC) and osteocalcin, comprise the major non-collagen proteins of bone. Although phosphorylation of OPN and BSP, which is known to influence the biological properties of these proteins, has been shown to occur intracellularly, recent studies have demonstrated ectokinase activity in bone cell populations [Mikuni-Takagaki, Kakai, Satoyoshi, Kawano, Suzuki, Kawase and Saito (1995) J. Bone Miner. Res. 10, 231-241]. To determine whether OPN and BSP are phosphorylated by ectokinase activity we have used [gamma-32P]ATP and [gamma-32P]GTP as cell-impenetrable phosphate donors to analyse for ectokinase activity in osteoblastic UMR106.06 cells and fetal rat calvarial cells (FRCCs). By pulse-labelling confluent cells with radiolabelled nucleotides, the phosphorylation of endogenous and exogenously added OPN and BSP was demonstrated together with the labelling of a number of cell surface proteins.[3] |
