Tissue energy of mammalian modulator-dependent protein kinases.

The levels of modulator-dependent protein kinases and protamine-dependent protein kinase(s) in various tissues of adult mice were compared. Cerebellum contained the highest levels of both modulator-dependent protein kinases and protamine-dependent protein kinase(s), whereas skeletal muscle contained no detectable enzymes. The lung and the ileum were also rich in modulator-dependent protein kinases, while other tissues were poor sources of these enzymes.
