| Research Abstract |
The availability of imaging techniques for intracellular Ca^<2+> dynamics using fluorescent indicators prompted us to try to visualize the dynamic features of specific molecules in living cells, since it would provide us with new information permitting direct analysis of the role of given functional molecules in specific biological functions. Our aim in this project was to prepare reagents which could be used as indicators to direct visualize dynamic features of kinase activities and also to consist a system to detect and analyze faint fluorescence images. To monitor CaMKII activity, we synthesized a reagent, AS2, by conjugating a fluoroprobe, acrylodan to syntide 2, a specific substrate of CaMKII and showed it to be an effective indicator of the activation of calmodulin by Ca^<2+> and subsequent activation of CaMKII in cell-free conditions. In order to visualize dynamics of PKA activity, we constructed a fluorescence substrate for PKA consisting of a fluorescence probe acrylodan and a partial amino acid sequence of the one of the two isotypes of regulatory domain, regulatory domain II (RII) of PKA which contains a specific autophosphorylation site, a serine residue (ARII). ARII were found to be phosphorylated by PKA and its fluorescence intensity decreased in response to the phosphorylation. We developed a new imaging system with a cooled CCD device and an image analyzer. The newly developed fluoroprobes and imaging systems were applied to neuronal cells in primary culture and had desirable results to show the dynamic features of kinase activities in living cells. We further tried to improve these probes to make them much stable and sensitive, and got several promising dyes.
