The 90 kDa heat shock protein (hsp 90) is a major phosphorylated protein under normal growth conditions. However, it does not incorporate detectable levels of phosphate by incubation of control HeLa cell lysates with [gamma-32P]ATP in vitro. In this paper we show that strong phosphorylation of hsp 90 occurs in lysates prepared from heat shocked HeLa cells. Possible involvement of the eukaryotic initiation factor 2 kinase of the heme-controlled repressor of translation is discussed.

D019892	eIF-2 Kinase	A dsRNA-activated cAMP-independent protein serine/threonine kinase that is induced by interferon. In the presence of dsRNA and ATP, the kinase autophosphorylates on several serine and threonine residues. The phosphorylated enzyme catalyzes the phosphorylation of the alpha subunit of EUKARYOTIC INITIATION FACTOR-2, leading to the inhibition of protein synthesis.
