- Treatment of bovine brain myelin basic protein with 42-kDa mitogen-activated protein kinase [p42 MAPK or extracellular signal-regulated kinase 2 (ERK2)] in the presence of ATP and Mg2+ results in phosphorylation of Thr94 and Thr97. Thr94 is not previously known to be an ERK2 phosphorylation site. Both residues are phosphorylated to about the same extent and are in the highly conserved segment Asn91-Ile-Val-Thr94-Pro-Arg-Thr97-Pro-Pro-Pro-Ser101 MALDI mass spectrometry before and after ERK2 treatment revealed the addition of two phosphate groups to the protein. Tryptic cleavage resulted in a single fragment (positions 91-104) carrying the observed mass increase. Tandem mass spectrometry applied to the tryptic peptide showed that both Thr94 and Thr97 are acceptors of phosphate. A singly phosphorylated species could not be detected. Identification of the ERK2 phosphorylation site Thr94 in bovine myelin basic protein reveals a nontraditional phosphate acceptor position, preceded by three noncharged residues (Asn-Ile-Val). Proline at position -2 or -3 from the phosphorylation site, typical for the recognition sequence of proline-directed kinases, is missing. The results provide information for delineation of a further substrate consensus motif for ERK2 phosphorylation.

- The homologous lipases from Rhizomucor miehei and Humicola lanuginosa showed approximately the same enantioselectivity when 2-methyldecanoic acid esters were used as substrates. Both lipases preferentially hydrolyzed the S- enantiomer of 1-heptyl 2-methyldecanoate (R. miehei: E(S) = 8.5; H. lanuginosa: E(S) = 10.5), but the R-enantiomer of phenyl 2-methyldecanoate (E(R) = 2.9). Chemical arginine specific modification of the R. miehei lipase with 1,2-cyclohexanedione resulted in a decreased enantioselectivity (E(R) = 2.0), only when the phenyl ester was used as a substrate. In contrast, treatment with phenylglyoxal showed a decreased enantioselectivity (E(S) = 2.5) only when the heptyl ester was used as a substrate. The presence of guanidine, an arginine side chain analog, decreased the enantioselectivity with the heptyl ester (E(S) = 1.9) and increased the enantioselectivity with the aromatic ester (E(R) = 4.4) as substrates. The mutation, Glu 87 Ala, in the lid of the H. lanuginosa lipase, which might decrease the electrostatic stabilization of the open-lid conformation of the lipase, resulted in 47% activity compared to the native lipase, in a tributyrin assay. The Glu 87 Ala mutant showed an increased enantioselectivity with the heptyl ester (E(S) = 17.4) and a decreased enantioselectivity with the phenyl ester (E(R) = 2.5) as substrates, compared to native lipase. The enantioselectivities of both lipases in the esterification of 2-methyldecanoic acid with 1-heptanol were unaffected by the lid modifications.
