pp54 microtubule-associated protein-2 kinase requires both tyrosine and serine/threonine phosphorylation for activity
pp54 microtubule-associated protein-2 (MAP-2) kinase, a recently discovered protein serine/threonine kinase (Kyriakis, J., and Avruch, J. (1990) J. Biol. Chem. 265, 17355-17363), is shown to contain immunoreactive phosphotyrosine residues. Treatment with recombinant rat brain protein tyrosine phosph...

Summary: | pp54 microtubule-associated protein-2 (MAP-2) kinase, a recently discovered protein serine/threonine kinase (Kyriakis, J.,
and Avruch, J. (1990) J. Biol. Chem. 265, 17355-17363), is shown to contain immunoreactive phosphotyrosine residues. Treatment
with recombinant rat brain protein tyrosine phosphatase-1 deactivates pp54 MAP-2 kinase, concomitant with the removal of phosphotyrosine
residues. Protein (serine/threonine) phosphatase-1 also deactivates pp54 MAP-2 kinase in a specific fashion. pp54 MAP-2 kinase
joins pp42 MAP-2 kinase and cdc2/maturation-promoting factor as one of only three serine/threonine protein kinases known to
be regulated by phosphorylation at both tyrosine and, independently, at serine/threonine residues. In view of these shared
regulatory properties, a role for pp54 MAP-2 kinase in the control of cell division is likely. |
