Exposure of 3T3-L1 cells to insulin stimulates a soluble, serine(threonine)-specific protein kinase that phosphorylates microtubule-associated protein 2 (MAP-2) in vitro. The enzyme, termed MAP kinase, was isolated from insulin-treated or control cells radiolabeled with 32Pi. A 40-kDa phosphoprotein was found to elute in exact correspondence with enzymatic activity during hydrophobic interaction and gel filtration chromatography of extracts from cells stimulated with insulin. Both MAP kinase activity and the phosphoprotein were absent in fractions prepared from untreated cells. The 32P incorporated into the 40-kDa protein was stable during treatment with alkali. Phospho amino acid analysis confirmed that the radiolabel was primarily incorporated into phosphotyrosine and to a lesser extent phosphothreonine. In addition, MAP kinase was incompletely but specifically adsorbed by antibodies to phosphotyrosine. We conclude, based on these data and additional studies from this laboratory, that MAP kinase is phosphorylated on tyrosine in vivo. The data are consistent with the possibility that MAP kinase may be a substrate for the insulin receptor or another insulin-regulated tyrosine kinase.
