Abstract
CRHSP-24 is a prominently regulated phosphoprotein in pancreatic acinar cells where it is the major substrate for the serine/threonine protein phosphatase, calcineurin, in response to secretagogues. We now identify the four regulated sites of CRHSP-24 phosphorylation as serines 30, 32, 41, and 52 and show that Ser30 and Ser32 are directly dephosphorylated by calcineurin. Coordinate phosphorylation/dephosphorylation of these four serines explains the multiple phosphorylated isoforms of CRHSP-24 present in acinar cells and provides a molecular framework to study CRHSP-24 regulation by secretagogues and growth factor-induced kinases and phosphatases in vivo.
