| Abstract | The p53 tumour suppressor protein is regulated by several mechanisms including multisite phosphorylation. One of the protein kinases which has an established role in regulating p53 function is the protein kinase CK2. The regulation by CK2 occurs both through interaction of p53 with CK2 itself (the regulatory β subunit) and phosphorylation at the penultimate residue of p53, serine 386 (murine p53). Strikingly, this phosphorylation event controls several independent functions of p53 including site-specific DNA binding, strand renaturation, transcriptional repression and the anti-proliferative function of p53. However, CK2 is a constitutively-active enzyme and therefore the mechanism by which the phosphorylation of p53 at serine 386 is itself regulated, or indeed the question as to whether phosphorylation of this site is regulated at all, remains unresolved. In this paper we provide evidence that serine 386 is highly resistant to dephosphorylation in cultured cells, even though this site can be dephosphorylated in vitro by recombinant protein phosphatase 1. These data suggest that, once phosphorylated at the CK2 site, a p53 molecule remains in this modified form throughout its lifespan. To address the issue of whether the level of serine 386 phosphorylation may be regulated through controlling the subcellular compartmentalisation of p53 and CK2, we examined the subcellular localisation of p53 and CK2α in C57MG cells and Rat-1 fibroblasts by immunofluorescence staining. Both proteins were present in the cytoplasm and enriched in the nucleus, with minor variations in the intensity of subcellular location over the course of the cell cycle. Similarly, activation of p53 by UV irradiation or DNA damage-inducing drugs had no effect on either the localisation or levels of CK2α, even although significant nuclear p53 accumulation was observed. A striking observation arising from these studies was the intense staining of CK2α with the centrosomes, suggesting a potentially important role for this kinase in microtubule formation and/or chromosomal segregation. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
