In vitro phosphorylation of microtubule-associated protein 2: differential effects of cyclic AMP analogues
Abstract
Microtubules purified from brain tissue contain endogenous cyclic AMP (cAMP)-dependent protein kinase activity, and microtubule-associated protein 2 (MAP2) is the major substrate. Beef brain microtubules were prepared and used as a model system to study the differential effects of rationally selected cyclic nucleotide analogues on microtubule receptor protein kinase. Data are presented to indicate that the following molecular interactions are essential for activation of the phosphorylation of MAP2: (a) hydrogen bond formation toward the 2', 3', or 5' position, (b) interaction with phosphorus, and (c) no hydrogen bonds but hydrophobic interactions at the base moiety. Thus, the activation mechanism of the type II protein kinase associated with brain microtubules resembles the mechanism found in protein kinases of other systems. In addition, we have studied the effect of the two diastereomers of adenosine 3',5'-monophosphorothioate (cAMPS). The (Sp)-cAMPS isomer was found to activate MAP2 protein kinase, whereas the (Rp)-cAMPS isomer had no activating effect. In contrast, this compound was able to inhibit cAMP-stimulated MAP2 phosphorylation and thus acts as an antagonist of the Sp diastereomer and cAMP. Hence, this analogue provides a useful means to clarify further the effect of cAMP-dependent phosphorylation on functional properties in microtubules in general.
