The effect of phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate on the phosphorylation of the ras p21 protein was studied by metabolically labeling cultured cells with [32P]orthophosphate and using a monoclonal antibody to immunoprecipitate the protein. Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (100 nM) induced phosphorylation of cKi-ras p21 in a mouse adrenocortical cell line (Yl) expressing high levels of cKi-ras with exon 4B. Phosphorylation was detected at 10 min and was maximal at 2 h. The ras protein was not phosphorylated in response to phorbol 12-myristate 13- acetate in NIH 3T3 cells expressing activated cHa-ras or vHa-ras. In vitro, protein kinase C phosphorylated cKi-ras in a phosphatidylserine and diolein-dependent manner. Both in intact cells and in vitro the amino acid phosphorylated was serine. Analysis of p21 from NIH 3T3 cells expressing a variety of ras proteins indicated that phosphorylation occurs within a domain encoded by exon 4B of cKi-ras. Phosphorylation affected neither the binding nor the GTPase activity of the ras protein. We conclude that cKi-ras is a substrate for protein kinase C and that the site of phosphorylation is likely to be serine 181 encoded by exon 4B.
