Phosphorylated and other modified forms of eukaryotic ribosomal protein S3 analysed by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis.
Proteins were isolated from the 40S ribosomal subunits of baby-hamster kidney fibroblasts and subjected to two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. When the cells were pretreated with cyclic AMP or 2-deoxyglucose a more basic derivative of ribosomal protein S3 or S3a was often observed, apparently similar to that previously reported to occur early in liver generation. This derivative was not a dephosphorylated form of protein S3, which protein does not appear to be phosphorylated in normal cells; nor did it correspond to the proteolytic fragment, S3b. It appears to be an oxidation product of protein S3 or S3a, as it can be eliminated by thorough reduction of the ribosomal protein before electrophoresis. In contrast with previous results with Krebs II ascites cells, starvation of baby-hamster kidney fibroblasts of glucose did not cause extensive phosphorylation of ribosomal protein S3.[1]References
