Abstract

Inhibitor 1 (I-1) is a protein inhibitor of protein phosphatase 1 (PP1), a major eukaryotic Ser/Thr phosphatase. Nonphosphorylated I-1 is inactive, whereas phosphorylated I-1 is a potent PP1 inhibitor. I-1 is phosphorylated in vivo on Thr 35 and Ser 67 . Thr 35 is phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase (A kinase), and Thr 35 -phosphorylated I-1 inhibits PP1. Until now the kinase that phosphorylates Ser 67 had not been identified and the physiological role of Ser 67 phosphorylation was unknown. In this study we detected a high level of kinase activity in brain extract when a glutathione S -transferase (GST) fusion I-1 mutant containing an Ala substituted for Thr 35 [GST-I-1(T35A)] was used as the substrate. GST-I-1(T35A) kinase and neuronal cdc2-like protein kinase (NCLK) in the brain extract could not be separated from each other by a series of sequential chromatographies. GST-I-1(T35A) kinase immunoprecipitated with anti-NCLK antibody from kinase-active column fractions. Purified NCLK-phosphorylated GST-I-1(T35A) and I-1 (0.7 mole of phosphate per mole of I-1). HPLC phosphopeptide mapping, amino acid sequencing, and site-directed mutagenesis determined that NCLK phosphorylates Ser 67 of I-1. NCLK-phosphorylated I-1 and I-1(T35A) inhibited PP1 with IC 50 values ≈9.5 and 13.8 nM, respectively. When compared, A kinase-phosphorylated I-1 was only ≈1.2 times more inhibitory than NCLK-phosphorylated I-1. Our data indicate that NCLK is a potential in vivo I-1 kinase and that Thr 35 and Ser 67 phosphorylation independently activate I-1.
