Abstract

Cdk5 activity is regulated by the amounts of two activator proteins, p35 and p39 (Tsai et al., 1994; Zheng et al., 1998; Humbert et al., 2000). The p35-Cdk5 and p39-Cdk5 complexes have differing sensitivity to salt and detergent concentrations (Hisanaga and Saito, 2003; Sato et al., 2007; Yamada et al., 2007; Asada et al., 2008). Cdk5 activation can be directly measured by immunoprecipitation of Cdk5 with its bound activator, followed by a Cdk5 kinase assay. In this protocol, buffers for cell lysis and immunoprecipitation are intended to preserve both p35- and p39-Cdk5 complexes to assess total Cdk5 activity. Cells are lysed and protein concentration is determined in the post-nuclear supernatant. Cdk5 is immunoprecipitated from equal amounts of total protein between experimental groups. Washes are then performed to remove extraneous proteins and equilibrate the Cdk5-activator complexes in the kinase buffer. Cdk5 is then incubated with histone H1, a well-established in vitro target of Cdk5, and [γ-32P]ATP. Reactions are resolved by SDS-PAGE and transferred to membranes for visualization of H1 phosphorylation and immunoblot of immunoprecipitated Cdk5 levels. We have used this assay to establish p39 as the primary activator for Cdk5 in the oligodendroglial lineage. However, this assay is amenable to other cell lineages or tissues with appropriate adjustments made to lysis conditions.

Background

Although Cdk5 is typically associated with neuronal function, recent work has demonstrated that Cdk5 also regulates oligodendroglia progenitor cell (OPC) development (Tang et al., 1998; Miyamoto et al., 2007 and 2008). Cdk5 function is critical for OPC migration and differentiation, and loss of Cdk5 results in CNS hypomyelination (Miyamoto et al., 2007 and 2008; He et al., 2010; Yang et al., 2013). However, molecular mechanisms that regulate Cdk5 function in neurons and OLs remain elusive. The activity of Cdk5 is controlled by the available amounts of two activator homologs, p35 and p39 (Tsai et al., 1994; Zheng et al., 1998; Humbert et al., 2000). The defects in embryonic brain development and perinatal lethality observed in mice lacking both p35 and p39 were nearly identical to defects in the Cdk5-null mice (Ohshima et al., 1996; Ko et al., 2001), indicating that p35 and p39 are the sole activators of Cdk5 in the brain. We uncovered that in contrast to the major role of p35 in activating Cdk5 in neurons, p39 is the primary Cdk5 activator in oligodendrocytes (OLs), where p35 expression is negligible. Using this active Cdk5 immunoprecipitation and kinase assay, we demonstrated that Cdk5 activity is almost completely ablated in OLs with siRNA-mediated p39 knockdown. Previous work established the differing sensitivity of p35 and p39 to high detergent and salt concentrations (Hisanaga and Saito, 2003; Sato et al., 2007; Yamada et al., 2007; Asada et al., 2008). Based on those reports, this protocol was developed to try and preserve both p35- and p39-Cdk5 complexes to measure total Cdk5 activity regardless of activator. Our work further showed that p39 is essential for OL differentiation and myelin repair, with upregulation of p35 masking the loss of p39 function during myelin development. Measuring Cdk5 activity from cells, in combination with immunoblots for Cdk5 target phosphorylation, provides a tool to identify novel regulators of Cdk5 activation.
