Phosphorylation of lipocortins in vitro by protein kinase C.
Protein kinase C catalyzes the incorporation of about 1.1, 0.7 and 0.4 mole of phosphate per mole of Lipocortin-I (P35), Lipocortin-II (P36) and Lipocortin-85 (P36 oligomer) respectively. The phosphorylation is specific for protein kinase C and is dependent on the presence of both calcium and phospholipids. While Lipocortin-I is phosphorylated on threonine residues, Lipocortin-II and Lipocortin-85 are phosphorylated on serine residues. The substoichiometric phosphorylation of Lipocortin-85 appears to preclude the potential regulation of this protein by protein kinase C. The phosphorylation of Lipocortin-I on threonine residues and Lipocortin-II on serine residues suggests these proteins may be regulated by distinct phosphorylation-dephosphorylation reactions.[1]References
