II is selectively activated at the nucleus during
G2 phase of cell cycle where it is required for entry into
mitosis. Selective nuclear activation of PKC
II is
conferred by molecular determinants within the carboxyl-terminal
catalytic domain of the kinase (Walker, S. D., Murray, N. R.,
Burns, D. J., and Fields, A. P. (1995) Proc. Natl.
Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 92, 9156-9160). We previously described a
lipid-like PKC activator in nuclear membranes, termed nuclear membrane
activation factor (NMAF), that potently stimulates PKC
II activity through interactions involving this domain
(Murray, N. R., Burns, D. J., and Fields, A. P. (1994)
J. Biol. Chem. 269, 21385-21390). We have now
identified NMAF as phosphatidylglycerol (PG), based on several lines of
evidence. First, NMAF cofractionates with PG as a single peak of
activity through multiple chromatographic separations and exhibits
phospholipase sensitivity identical to that of PG. Second, purified PG,
but not other phospholipids, exhibits dose-dependent NMAF
activity. Third, defined molecular species of PG exhibit different
abilities to stimulate PKC
II activity. 1,2-Dioleoyl-PG
possesses significantly higher activity than other PG species,
suggesting that both fatty acid side chain composition and the glycerol
head group are important determinants for activity. Fourth, in
vitro binding studies demonstrate that PG binds to the
carboxyl-terminal region of PKC
II, the same region we
previously implicated in NMAF-mediated activation of PKC
II. Taken together, our results indicate that specific
molecular species of nuclear PG function to physiologically regulate
PKC
II activity at the nucleus.
