The herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) regulatory protein ICP27 is a 63-kDa phosphoprotein required for viral replication. ICP27 has been shown to contain both stable phosphate groups and phosphate groups that cycle on and off during infection (K. W. Wilcox, A. Kohn, E. Sklyanskaya, and B. Roizman, J. Virol. 33:167-182, 1980). Despite extensive genetic analysis of the ICP27 gene, there is no information available about the sites of the ICP27 molecule that are phosphorylated during viral infection. In this study, we mapped several of the phosphorylation sites of ICP27 following in vivo radiolabeling. Phosphoamino acid analysis showed that serine is the only amino acid that is phosphorylated during infection. Two-dimensional phosphopeptide mapping showed a complex tryptic phosphopeptide pattern with at least four major peptides and several minor peptides. In addition, ICP27 purified from transfected cells yielded a similar phosphopeptide pattern, suggesting that cellular kinases phosphorylate ICP27 during viral infection. In vitro labeling showed that protein kinase A (PKA), PKC, and casein kinase II (CKII) were able to differentially phosphorylate ICP27, resulting in distinct phosphopeptide patterns. The major phosphorylation sites of ICP27 appeared to cluster in the N-terminal portion of the protein, such that a frameshift mutant that encodes amino acids 1 to 163 yielded a phosphopeptide pattern very similar to that seen with the wild-type protein. Further, using small deletion and point mutations in kinase consensus sites, we have elucidated individual serine residues that are phosphorylated in vivo. Specifically, the serine at residue 114 was highly phosphorylated by PKA and the serine residues at positions 16 and 18 serve as targets for CKII phosphorylation in vivo. These kinase consensus site mutants were still capable of complementing the growth of an ICP27-null mutant virus. Interestingly, phosphorylation of the serine at residue 114, which lies within the major nuclear localization signal, appeared to modulate the efficiency of nuclear import of ICP27.
