lüll Phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of histidine residues in proteins Klumpp S; Krieglstein JEur J Biochem 2002[Feb]; 269 (4): 1067-71Protein phosphorylation is a key mechanism for intracellular signal transduction in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Vertebrate proteins are prevalently phosphorylated on side chains that contain a hydroxyl group, such as serine, threonine and tyrosine residues. In the past decade, however, an increasing number of examples of histidine phosphorylation has been described. Because acid treatment of phosphoproteins during purification and detection of phosphoamino acid analysis is routine, O-phosphomonoesters have been studied more often, and the existence of acid-labile phosphates has been largely overlooked. The latter class of N-phosphoamidates may well be more widespread than is generally believed, even though the O-phosphates remain the major class in terms of quantity and extent of distribution in proteins. Phosphohistidine currently is estimated to be 10- to 100-fold more abundant than phosphotyrosine, but less abundant than phosphoserine [Matthews, H.R. (1995) Pharmac. Ther. 67, 323-350.]. This minireview briefly summarizes the extensive knowledge of the key mechanisms and functions of phosphohistidine in bacteria. It also describes the still limited, yet increasing, data from homologs of the bacterial two-component system. Finally, novel mechanisms of phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of histidine residues not related to the two-component system are described.|Histidine Kinase[MESH]|Histidine/*metabolism[MESH]|Phosphoprotein Phosphatases/*metabolism[MESH]|Phosphoproteins/metabolism[MESH]|Phosphorylation[MESH]|Protein Kinases/*metabolism[MESH]|Signal Transduction[MESH]|Species Specificity[MESH] |
