Abstract
Glycosylphosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase D (GPI-PLD) was phosphorylated in vitro by cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) and by tyrosine kinase. Phosphorylation by PKA occurred in the 110 kDa native form of GPI-PLD as well as in multiple proteolytic degradation products and caused a significant decrease in enzyme activity. Dephosphorylation by treatment with alkaline phosphatase completely restored GPI-PLD activity. In addition, incubation of GPI-PLD with trypsin, which results in the generation of distinct peptide fragments, resulted in complete dephosphorylation of radiolabeled GPI-PLD. The site of phosphorylation by PKA was assigned to Thr-286. Tyrosine phosphorylation was only observed in a proteolytically processed fragment of GPI-PLD but not in the 110 kDa native form and had no effect on GPI-PLD activity.
