Paramyosin fromCaenorhabditis eleganswas examined for post-translational modification by phosphorylation. Paramyosin purified from populations of mixed-age animals contained 0.7 to 2.0 moles of phosphate per mole of paramyosin. Paramyosin was also phosphorylatedin vitroby an endogenous kinase in the particulate fraction. Analysis of thein vitrophosphorylated paramyosin in comparison with the DNA sequence of theunc-15 paramyosin gene ofC. elegansshows that serine residues in the non-α-helical N-terminal region are the targets of the kinase. The N-terminal region of paramyosin has significant similarity to the non-helical C-terminal region of the two body wall myosin heavy chains ofC. elegans. All three regions contain three copies of a Ser-∗-Ser-∗-Ala motif, the most likely target for phosphorylation in paramyosin, suggesting that these regions may be modified by the same kinase.
