Abstract

Protein phosphorylation was investigated inStreptomyces lincolnensis underin vivo conditions. In cells grown in the presence of32P-orthophosphate, proteins ofM=12, 22, 45, 68 and 90 kDa were labeled with32P (detected by gel electrophoresis and autoradiography). These proteins were shown to contain O-phosphoserine and a small proportion of O-phosphotyrosine. Taken together the results indicate thatStreptomyces lincolnensis harbors several protein kinases including a protein-tyrosine kinase activity.
