Protein kinase Cdelta (PKCdelta) is unusual among AGC kinases in that it does not require activation loop (Thr(505)) phosphorylation for catalytic competence. Nevertheless, Thr(505) phosphorylation has been implicated as a mechanism that influences PKCdelta activity. This study examines the controls of PKCdelta-Thr(505) phosphorylation in cardiomyocytes. We implicate phosphoinositide-dependent kinase-1 and PKCdelta autophosphorylation in the "priming" maturational PKCdelta-Thr(505) phosphorylation that accompanies de novo enzyme synthesis. In contrast, we show that PKCdelta-Thr(505) phosphorylation dynamically increases in cardiomyocytes treated with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate or the alpha(1)-adrenergic receptor agonist norepinephrine via a mechanism that requires novel PKC isoform activity and not phosphoinositide-dependent kinase-1. We used a PKCepsilon overexpression strategy as an initial approach to discriminate two possible novel PKC mechanisms, namely PKCdelta-Thr(505) autophosphorylation and PKCdelta-Thr(505) phosphorylation in trans by PKCepsilon. Our studies show that adenovirus-mediated PKCepsilon overexpression leads to an increase in PKCdelta-Thr(505) phosphorylation. However, this cannot be attributed to an effect of PKCepsilon to function as a direct PKCdelta-Thr(505) kinase, since the PKCepsilon-dependent increase in PKCdelta-Thr(505) phosphorylation is accompanied by (and dependent upon) increased PKCdelta phosphorylation at Tyr(311) and Tyr(332). Further studies implicate Src in this mechanism, showing that 1) PKCepsilon overexpression increases PKCdelta-Thr(505) phosphorylation in cardiomyocytes and Src(+) cells but not in SYF cells (that lack Src, Yes, and Fyn and exhibit a defect in PKCdelta-Tyr(311)/Tyr(332) phosphorylation), and 2) in vitro PKCdelta-Thr(505) autophosphorylation is augmented in assays performed with Src (which promotes PKCdelta-Tyr(311)/Tyr(332) phosphorylation). Collectively, these results identify a novel PKCdelta-Thr(505) autophosphorylation mechanism that is triggered by PKCepsilon overexpression and involves Src-dependent PKCdelta-Tyr(311)/Tyr(332) phosphorylation.

D016392 Proto-Oncogene Proteins pp60(c-src) Membrane-associated tyrosine-specific kinases encoded by the c-src genes. They have an important role in cellular growth control. Truncation of carboxy-terminal residues in pp60(c-src) leads to PP60(V-SRC) which has the ability to transform cells. This kinase pp60 c-src should not be confused with csk, also known as c-src kinase. c-src Protein pp60,pp60(c-src),src Proto-Oncogene Protein pp60,Phosphoprotein pp60(c-src),Proto-Oncogene Protein pp60(c-src),Proto-Oncogene Protein src,pp60 c-src,src Proto-Oncogene Product,Protein pp60, c-src,Protein src, Proto-Oncogene,Proto Oncogene Protein src,Proto-Oncogene Product, src,c src Protein pp60,c-src, pp60,pp60 c src,pp60, c-src Protein,src Proto Oncogene Product,src Proto Oncogene Protein pp60
