Popis: We have identified Ser-1275 and Ser-1309 as novel serine autophosphorylation sites by direct sequencing of HPLC-purified tryptic phosphopeptides of the histidine-tagged insulin receptor kinase IRKD-HIS. The corresponding peptides (Ser-1275, amino acids 1272-1292; Ser-1309, amino acids 1305-1313) have been detected in the HPLC profiles of both the soluble kinase IRKD, which contains the entire cytoplasmic domain of the insulin receptor beta-subunit, and the insulin receptor purified from human placenta. In contrast, a kinase negative mutant, IRKD-K1018A, did not undergo phosphorylation at either the tyrosine or serine residues, strongly suggesting that insulin receptor kinase has an intrinsic activity to autophosphorylate serine residues.
