Characterization of an arginine-specific protein kinase tightly bound to rat liver DNA. 1987

F Levy-Favatier, and M Delpech, and J Kruh

A new protein kinase has been characterized among the proteins tightly bound to rat liver DNA and released by DNase I and RNase A treatment. This enzyme was separated by gel filtration from this released material. Its apparent molecular mass was found to be 34 kDa and it is made of a single unit. The main characteristic of this protein kinase is that it is arginine-specific. Isolation of phosphoarginine required the use of proteolytic enzymes at alkaline pH since the phosphate bond is highly acid-labile. This protein kinase is able to autophosphorylate and to phosphorylate a single chromosomal protein of 11 kDa also tightly bound to DNA. It uses ATP and dATP as phosphate donors and is cAMP-independent. Its optimal activity requires Mn2+ ions. Vanadate, spermine and heparin have no effect on its activity.
