After bacteriophage T7 infection, a protein kinase (EC 2.7.1.37; ATP:protein phosphotransferase) activity can be demonstrated inE. coli in vivoby sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and autoradiography. Cell-free extracts catalyzed the transfer of the terminal phosphoryl group of [γ-32P]ATP to endogenous protein acceptor or to added histone. The bond between phosphate and protein shows the characteristics of serine phosphate: it is stable in 1 N HCl (100°) and cleaved by 1 N KOH (37°) and by alkaline phosphatase treatment. Moreover, after partial acid hydrolysis, radiophosphate migrates with markerO-phosphoserine on polyethyleneimine-cellulose thin-layer chromatograms. Enzyme activity in uninfected cells is negligible. Ultraviolet irradiation of the phage genome prevents the appearance of the protein kinase; irradiation of the host genome does not. The enzyme activity occurs 4 min after infection and its gene maps in the early region (promoter proximal to gene1). Ribosomal proteins are phosphorylatedin vivoand are substratesin vitro. Enzyme activityin vitrois not changed by addition of cyclic AMP or cyclic GMP.
