In the Triton X-100-treated polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN), which were stimulated with formyl-Met-Leu-Phe (FMLP) for 1 min, a 64,000 molecular weight protein (p64) was preferentially phosphorylated by the incubation with [gamma-32P]ATP in the presence of Mg2+, but not in the presence of Ca2+. Phosphoamino acid analysis of pp64 revealed that the p64-kinase was a serine-specific protein kinase. The p64 was maximally phosphorylated in the first minute, suggesting that the rapid phosphorylation was related to the initial reaction for activation of the FMLP-stimulated PMN functions. The FMLP-stimulated phosphorylation of p64 was slightly inhibited by the addition of cGMP in the reaction mixture. However, addition of cAMP, the cyclic nucleotide-dependent kinase inhibitor (H-8), protein kinase C-inhibitor (H-7) or Ca/calmodulin-dependent kinase inhibitor (W-7), showed no effect on the phosphorylation. These data suggest that phosphorylation of p64 seems to be a novel protein kinase specific to p64.
