two serines, and it may be that the elimination of both serines is
necessary to eliminate a spot corresponding to such a peptide. In
accord with this idea, a single spot was eliminated from the
phosphopeptide maps of S303A,S304A and S345A,S348A (Fig. 1, left). The map of the sextuple mutant S328A-S379A lacked

) production by phagocytes and B
lymphocytes. This multicomponent enzyme is dormant in resting cells but
is activated on exposure of the cells to an appropriate stimulus. Upon
activation, several serine residues on the cytosolic oxidase subunit
p47 become phosphorylated. Using
two-dimensional tryptic phosphopeptide mapping, we studied the
phosphorylation of p47
in
P
-loaded Epstein-Barr virus-transformed B
lymphoblasts expressing wild type p47or any of
several p47
Ser
Ala mutants. We were
able to identify the labeled peptides from wild type p47
as those containing Ser

Ser
, Ser
, Ser
and/or
Ser
, and Ser
; no
P-labeled Ser
-containing peptide was found.
When purified p47
was phosphorylated in
vitro by various protein kinases, varying phosphopeptide patterns
were observed. Protein kinase C phosphorylated all the peptides except
the one containing Ser
; protein kinase A
phosphorylated the peptide containing Ser
and one or both
of the peptides containing Ser
and Ser
;
while mitogen-activated protein kinase phophorylated only the peptide
containing Ser

three kinases play distinct roles in the activation of the respiratory

NADPH(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) .
In resting cells the enzyme is inactive, and its components are
distributed between the cytosol and the membranes of secretory
vesicles. When the cells are activated, the cytosolic components
migrate to the membranes, where they associate with the membrane-bound
components to assemble the catalytically active oxidase (1, 5, 7) ., one of the cytosolic subunits, becomes
phosphorylated on several serines(8, 9) . We recently
found that in human neutrophils serines Ser
,
Ser
, Ser
, Ser
,
Ser
, Ser
, and Ser
and/or
Ser
are phosphorylated and that other serines lying
between Ser
and Ser
could be
phosphorylated(10) . We further showed that at least one of
these serines is absolutely required for oxidase activation in whole
cells stimulated with PMA(11) . In this study, we report the
use of site-directed mutagenesis combined with two-dimensional
phosphopeptide mapping to further characterize the phosphorylation of
p47
in B lymphocytes and to compare the in
vitro phosphorylation of purified p47
by
various serine/threonine-specific protein kinases.
Reagents
Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate,
leupeptin, pepstatin, aprotinin, phosphatidylserine, diacylglycerol,
and protein kinase A (catalytic subunit) were purchased from Sigma.
Protein kinase C was obtained from Calbiochem. MAP (

[-
P]ATP (3000 Ci/mmol) were purchased from
DuPont NEN.
Site-directed Mutagenesis and Transfections
Most
of the mutants used for these experiments have been previously
reported(11) . S303A,S304A was constructed by cloning the WT
p47 cDNA template into the XbaI/NotI
fragment of pBluescript KSII, then mutating by an
oligonucleotide-directed technique using the oligonucleotide
CGGATGGCCGCGCGCCGGGGCGGCGC (deviations from the WT
sequence are shown in boldface)(11) . The elimination of a BssHII site in the mutant was used for screening.
S328A-S359A was constructed by the sequential introduction of the
single mutations S348A, S345A, S359A, and S328A into the WT clone using
templates reported elsewhere(11) . S370A,S379A was similarly
created by the sequential introduction of the mutations S379A and S370A
into the WT clone. S328A-S379A was then constructed by replacing
the NaeI/NarI fragment of S370A,S379A with the NaeI/NarI fragment of S328A-S359A. In every
case, the mutations were confirmed by dideoxynucleotide-based
sequencing(11) . The wild type or mutant cDNAs were then
excised from Bluescript, cloned into the XbaI/NotI
sites of the mammalian expression vector EBOpLPP and transfected into
p47
-deficient EBV-transformed B lymphocytes as described
elsewhere(12) .
Transfected B lymphoblasts were

as described
previously(11) . Briefly, the cells were incubated overnight in
phosphate-free medium, then transferred to fresh medium containing P
(0.2 mCi/ml) and incubated for 4 h at 37
°C. The cells were then activated for 12.5 min with PMA (1
µg/ml/10
cells), after which their p47 was isolated and purified by immunoaffinity chromatography as
described before(10) .
In Vitro Phosphorylation of

immunoprecipitation from resting neutrophils exactly as described
elsewhere(10, 16) . Labeling with protein kinase A was
performed by incubating a reaction mixture containing 1 µg of

mM
-glycerophosphate for 30 min at 37 °C. For the
protein kinase C reaction, 1 µg of immunopurified p47 was incubated with 0.5 µg of protein kinase C in 20 mM Tris-Cl (pH 7.5), 10 mM MgCl
, 0.5 mM CaCl
, 1 mM dithiothreitol, 50 µM (1 µCi) [-

of p47
with 0.5 µg of MAP kinase (p42-ERK2) and 50
µM (1 µCi) [

the conditions used for the protein kinase A reaction.
SDS-PAGE and Tryptic Phosphopeptide
Analysis
Immunoprecipitated or recombinant P-labeled p47
was analyzed by 10% SDS-PAGE
and blotted to nitrocellulose using the Laemmli (13) and Towbin et al. (14) systems, respectively. Labeled
p47
was detected on the immunoblot by a specific
anti-peptide antibody (15) and by autoradiography for 1 to 2 h.
The band corresponding to p47
was digested with trypsin,
and the resulting peptides were separated by high voltage
electrophoresis and chromatography on a cellulose thin layer plate as
described elsewhere(10, 17) . Phosphopeptides were
detected by exposing the thin layer plates to Reflexion film (DuPont
NEN) for 24-72 h at -70 °C with an intensifying screen.
For the peptide-containing serines 359 and 370, phosphorylation was
analyzed by digesting the blotted p47
with Glu-C,
separating the resulting peptides by Tris-Tricine SDS-PAGE and
subjecting the resulting gel to autoradiography. Phosphorylated peptide
359/370 appears as a radioactive band at
4 kDa. Each autoradiogram
is representative of two or three separate experiments, each carried
out with a different transfection.
Identification of Phosphopeptides on the Tryptic
Peptide Map of Phosphorylated p47
During the
activation of the respiratory burst oxidase in phagocytes and B
lymphocytes, p47, Including a
Phosphopeptide Containing Ser
becomes extensively phosphorylated.
Using CNBr cleavage followed by proteolysis, Tricine gel
electrophoresis, and Edman degradation, we showed that the targets of
phosphorylation in p47
are the serine residues lying
between Ser
and Ser
inclusively, and that
among these serines the following are phosphorylated:
Ser
, Ser
, Ser
,
Ser
, Ser
, Ser
, Ser
and/or Ser
, and
Ser
(10, 11) , the last phosphorylated
much less extensively than the rest. The methods employed in that study
were elaborate and time-consuming, however, and presented certain
limitations: in qualitative analysis because manual Edman degradation
is only reliable through the first 10-15 cycles (18) and
in quantitative analysis because of unequal losses of phosphorylated
peptides during the workup of the samples. A simpler and more
quantifiable method would be the analysis of phosphorylation by
two-dimensional tryptic peptide mapping(17) . We therefore
carried out experiments to identify the phosphopeptides on the tryptic
peptide map of
P-labeled p47

these lymphocytes with

and then activate
them with PMA to label their p47; and finally to purify
the labeled p47
mutants, map them, and look for
differences between those maps and the map of
P-labeled WT
p47
. In a tryptic digest of p47
, the
phosphorylation targets are distributed among several peptides (Table 1; trypsin is unable to split Lys-Pro and
Arg-Pro bonds)(17) . Of these, the peptide containing
Ser
and Ser
would probably be difficult to
see because it would contain very little
P relative to the
other peptides(10, 11) . The results (Fig. 1, left) showed that the map of WT p47
contained
six major phosphopeptides (arrows), all of which were seen in
each of 15 separate experiments, together with several minor
phosphopeptides whose presence in the maps was inconstant. Taking into
consideration the serines known to be phosphorylated during oxidase
activation (10) and the peptides generated by tryptic digestion
of p47
(Table 1), we made a number of mutants in
which two or more serines had been converted to alanines, and used
these together with mutants containing a single Ser

to identify the labeled peptides on the two-dimensional map.

lacked a single spot, and the map of S315A, which lacked two spots (Fig. 1, left). The latter result suggests that at
least two peptides were produced, probably because of partial cleavage
at the sequence RKR (residues 316-318). Sequences containing
basic residues in tandem are known to be susceptible to partial
cleavage(17) .

the two peptides Ser
and Ser
, because
the spots corresponding to the remaining phosphopeptides (i.e. Ser
, Ser
, and Ser
)
were present on the map. (
)It appears that the
phosphorylated peptides Ser and Ser
coincide on the tryptic peptide map. Finally, these results
suggest that Ser
is not phosphorylated during oxidase
activation.

identifying peptides on maps with missing spots. P
lies at a level between peptides Ser and

phosphopeptides all migrate toward the cathode. The location of the

spot relative to the point of application of
the sample (marked by a plus sign (+) in the lower left corner of the figure) provides a mobility standard that allows the
identification of individual peptides even in the absence of
information concerning the overall distribution of spots on the
chromatogram, as would occur under conditions in which only one or two
peptides are phosphorylated.

Comparison of Phosphopeptides in p47

from activated human
neutrophils and EBV-transformed normal B lymphocytes. The results (Fig. 3) showed that the same six major phosphopeptides appeared
in both maps. These findings suggest that the p47
phosphopeptide assignments made through the experiments described
above are valid for neutrophils as well as B lymphocytes, and that this
method can therefore be employed to study the phosphorylation of
p47
during the activation of neutrophils and probably
other phagocytes as well.

Phosphorylation of Purified p47
We employed tryptic phosphopeptide mapping to

production by the respiratory burst oxidase. For this purpose,
p47 immunopurified from resting neutrophils was
incubated with [
-
P]ATP together with the
kinase of interest (protein kinase A, protein kinase C, or MAP kinase),
then repurified and analyzed either by CNBr cleavage followed by
Tris-Tricine SDS-PAGE (19) or by tryptic peptide mapping. As
shown previously with p47
that had been phosphorylated
in intact cells(10) , the sites phosphorylated in vitro by all three kinases were located in the C-terminal CNBr peptide
of the labeled p47
(Fig. 4). Peptide mapping
showed that protein kinase C phosphorylated all the p47
peptides except the peptide corresponding to Ser
(Fig. 5, top), while protein kinase A, a more
selective kinase, phosphorylated only the Ser
peptide and
the Ser
and/or the Ser
peptides (Fig. 5, middle). When p47
phosphorylated by protein kinase C or protein kinase A was
cleaved by Glu-C endopeptidase and then analyzed by SDS-PAGE, a labeled
fragment appeared at 4 kDa (Fig. 6), indicating that the peptide
containing Ser
was phosphorylated. The status of
Ser
remained unresolved, although its phosphorylation in
PMA-activated neutrophils suggests that it was probably phosphorylated
at least by protein kinase C. MAP kinase, used here as an example of a
proline-directed kinase, phosphorylated only the Ser
peptide, as expected from the sequences around the target serines
in p47
(Fig. 5, bottom). Taken together,
these results suggest that the three kinases could play different roles
in regulating the activity of the respiratory burst oxidase.

spots were disregarded as irrelevant to the physiological labeling

.
labeled with
P either in intact cells or in a cell-free system provides
an efficient way of identifying which of the target peptides are
phosphorylated, and in combination with image analysis of radioactivity
could yield important information on the relative quantities of
phosphate on various of the serines of the protein. The results
obtained by tryptic peptide mapping retain a certain amount of
ambiguity, however, because they provide no information as to which of
the two serines on a two-serine peptide is (are) phosphorylated.
Whether it is important to answer that question will depend on studies
correlating structure and function in Ser
Ala mutants of
p47
, although a partial answer is provided by our recent
report showing that Ser
Ala mutations of individual serines from
position 303 to 370 have little effect on oxidase
activity(11) .
. Except for the mutant S315A, whose anomalous
properties were discussed above, mutations affecting the serines on a
single tryptic peptide caused the loss of at most one spot on the
phosphopeptide map. This finding suggests that there is no target
serine whose phosphorylation is absolutely dependent on the
phosphorylation of a serine on a different peptide, or the
phosphorylation of a group of such serines. Rather, it appears that
these serines can be phosphorylated in any order.
, Ser
, Ser
,
Ser
, Ser
, Ser
, Ser
and/or Ser
, and Ser
of p47
are phosphorylated(10, 11) . The present studies
confirm the earlier results by another method, and in addition have
shown that Ser
is also phosphorylated, bringing the total
number of phosphorylated serines in the C-terminal region of activated
p47
to 9 or 10. Ser
has already been found
to play an important role in oxidase activation and p47
translocation, and it is likely that protein kinase-mediated
phosphorylation of other target serines is equally important. In fact,
several lines of evidence already support a role for protein kinase C
in oxidase activation. For example, PMA, an activator of several forms
of protein kinase C, is a powerful stimulator of
O
production in whole
cells(20) . Purified p47 is a good substrate for
protein kinase C in vitro(21) , while staurosporine, a
potent inhibitor of protein kinase C (and other kinases), blocks
PMA-induced O
generation as well as the
phosphorylation of p47(22, 23) .
Finally, we show in this study that the phosphopeptide map of
p47
isolated from PMA-activated neutrophils and
EBV-transformed B lymphocytes is identical to the phosphopeptide map of
p47
phosphorylated in vitro by protein kinase
C, except for the absence of the Ser
peptide from the
latter map. These findings suggest that one or more of the
PMA-responsive forms of protein kinase C could be a critical mediator
of oxidase activation. We showed recently that Ser
and
Ser
are not required for oxidase activation(11) ,
since the S345A,S348A mutant of p47
is fully active in
EBV-transformed B cells. This finding suggests that, in contrast to
protein kinase C, phosphorylation of p47
by
proline-directed kinases such as MAP kinase may have little to do with
oxidase activation. The role of target serines in the regulation of
oxidase activity is currently under investigation in our laboratory.
was also shown to occur upon
addition of dibutyryl cAMP to neutrophil cytoplasts or cytosol,
suggesting that p47
is also a substrate for protein
kinase A(24) . Dibutyryl cAMP did not induce
O
production, however, indicating that
phosphorylation by protein kinase A alone is not sufficient to activate
the oxidase. It is possible, in fact, that the the phosphorylation of
p47 by protein kinase A prevents the assembly of the
oxidase, since the elevation of neutrophil cAMP inhibits
O
production(25) . Our results
show that protein kinase A phosphorylates fewer target serines than
protein kinase C, phosphorylating only peptides Ser,
Ser
, and possibly Ser
(a maximum of
four target serines), in contrast to the five peptides (up to seven
target serines) phosphorylated by protein kinase C. The protein kinase
A targets could be responsible for the negative regulation of
p47
phosphorylation and oxidase activation by protein
kinase A.
