1. Triton extracts of syncytiotrophoblast membranes were incubated with [gamma-32P]ATP, MgCl2 and MnCl2. Addition of epidermal growth factor (EGF) resulted in increased phosphorylation not only of the EGF receptor and a Mr-35,000 protein as previously described, but also a protein of Mr 95,000 on both tyrosine and serine residues. In addition, a small increase in the phosphorylation of a protein of Mr 105,000 was observed. Spermine had a similar effect on the phosphorylation of the Mr-95,000 protein, without affecting the phosphorylation of the other proteins. In the absence of MnCl2, the effect of spermine on the phosphorylation of Mr-95,000 protein was still evident, whereas that of EGF was greatly diminished. 2. The Mr-95,000 protein bound poorly to wheat-germ-lectin-Sepharose and was not precipitated by antisera specific for insulin and EGF receptors. The protein continued to exhibit serine and tyrosine phosphorylation on addition of [gamma-32P]ATP, MgCl2 and MnCl2 to a glycoprotein-depleted fraction prepared by chromatography on wheat-germ-lectin-Sepharose. The extent of phosphorylation was no longer increased by spermine or EGF, but was inhibited by heparin. 3. It is suggested that the Mr-95,000 protein not only is a possible direct substrate for the EGF-receptor (but not the insulin receptor) tyrosine kinase but is a substrate for other endogenous kinases, including a protein tyrosine kinase which is probably not a glycoprotein, and a protein serine kinase with properties similar to those of casein kinase II. 相似文献

The transferrin (Tf) receptor is a major transmembrane protein which provides iron for normal and malignant cell growth. Epidermal growth factor (EGF) has been reported to rapidly and transiently alter the number of surface Tf receptors in normal and transformed epithelial cells. To investigate mechanisms of EGF-induced changes in surface Tf display, EGF effects on surface Tf receptors were compared in two cell lines which differ in their number of EGF receptors and growth responses to EGF. In cloned A431 cells with high receptor numbers which are growth-inhibited by EGF, EGF caused a 50% decrease in Tf receptor expression after 30 min. In contrast, EGF induced a rapid, transitory increase (within 5 min) in the number of surface Tf receptors on KB carcinoma cells which returned to basal levels by 15 min. The observed changes in Tf receptor display were due to altered receptor distribution and not changes in ligand affinity or total cellular transferrin receptor pools. Anti-EGF receptor monoclonal antibody blocked effects of EGF on transferrin receptor expression. Since the antibody is internalized and causes EGF receptor down-regulation, effects on transferrin receptor expression were independent of these events. EGF-induced alterations in Tf receptor display occurred even when cells were pretreated with colchicine, suggesting that changes in surface Tf binding were not mediated by cytoskeletal components. Na orthovanadate, which mimics some early cellular effects of EGF, duplicated EGF's effects on A431 Tf receptors, but had no effect on KB cells, suggesting these responses occur by differing mechanisms. To determine whether EGF caused changes in Tf receptor phosphorylation, 32P-labelled Tf receptors were immunoprecipitated after EGF treatment. After exposure to EGF, A431 cells showed no change in Tf phosphorylation, but KB cells showed a transient, 6-fold increase in transferrin receptor phosphorylation on serine residues. In both A431 and KB cells, phorbol ester (PMA) also increased phosphorylation on transferrin receptors, but had little effect on surface Tf receptor expression. In malignant cell lines, EGE induces rapid, variable changes in transferrin receptor expression and phosphorylation which differ from the effects of PMA. These early responses to EGF appear to differ with the cell type and correlate poorly with alterations in Tf receptor phosphorylation. These results suggest Tf receptor phosphorylation does not regulate Tf receptor display in all cells. 相似文献

Forskolin-pretreatment of A431 cells reduced both intrinsic and epidermal growth factor (EGF)-induced EGF receptor phosphorylation, however, phosphorylation of phospholipase C-gamma (PLC-gamma) was stimulated under the same conditions. No significant difference was detected in the amount of phosphotyrosine of PLC-gamma between two cultures with or without forskolin treatment followed by EGF. On the other hand, phosphorylation of a 47 kDa protein (P47) which cross-reacted with an anti-PLC-gamma monoclonal antibody, was stimulated by both forskolin and EGF. Phosphorylation was exclusively on serine residues in this case. These results indicate that both PLC-gamma and P47 are phosphorylated by a cAMP-dependent protein kinase and the EGF-stimulated serine kinase, and suggest that serine phosphorylation of PLC-gamma has no effect on ligand-dependent coupling with the EGF receptor. 相似文献

Epidermal growth factor receptor threonine and serine residues phosphorylated in vivo 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
The epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor is regulated by EGF-stimulated autophosphorylation and by phorbol ester-stimulated, protein kinase C (Ca2+/phospholipid-dependent enzyme) mediated phosphorylation at identified sites. The EGF receptor contains additional phosphorylation sites including a prominent phosphothreonine and several phosphoserines which account for the majority of phosphate covalently bound to the receptor in vivo. We have identified three of these sites in EGF receptor purified from 32P-labeled A431 cells. The major phosphothreonine was identified as threonine 669 in the EGF receptor sequence. Phosphoserine residues were identified as serines 671 and 1046/1047 of the EGF receptor. Two other phosphoserine residues were localized to tryptic peptides containing multiple serine residues located carboxyl-terminal to the conserved protein kinase domain. The amino acid sequences surrounding the three identified phosphorylation sites are highly conserved in the EGF receptor and the protein products of the v-erb B and neu oncogenes. Analysis of predicted secondary structure of the EGF receptor reveals that all of the phosphorylation sites are located near beta turns. In A431 cells phosphorylation of the serine residues was dependent upon serum. In mouse B82 L cells transfected with a wild type human EGF receptor. EGF increased the 32P content in all tryptic phosphopeptides. A mutant EGF receptor lacking protein tyrosine kinase activity was phosphorylated only at threonine 669. Regulated phosphorylation of the EGF receptor at these threonine and serine residues may influence aspects of receptor function. 相似文献

To investigate the functional significance of epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor phosphorylation, experimental systems were explored in which receptor phosphorylation on tyrosine and serine/threonine could be differentially stimulated. Exposure of A431 cells to 20 nM EGF at 37 degrees C results in phosphorylation of serine, threonine, and tyrosine sites on the receptor. Monoclonal antibody (mAb) 225 binds to the EGF receptor with affinity comparable to EGF and competes with the binding of EGF. Exposure of A431 cells to 20 nM EGF in the presence of 300 nM anti-EGF receptor mAb 225 (15-fold excess) selectively activated serine and threonine phosphorylation of the receptor, but not tyrosine phosphorylation. This observation indicates that EGF-mediated receptor phosphorylation on tyrosine and on serine/threonine residues is dissociable. The intracellular fate of the EGF receptor was examined under conditions that produce different phosphorylation states of receptor amino acids. Exposure of A431 cells to EGF decreased the half-life (T1/2) of the receptor from 17.8 h to 5.6 h, with activation of tyrosine, serine, and threonine phosphorylation. Incubation with mAb 225 augmented the degradation rate (T1/2 = 8.5 h) without activation of receptor phosphorylation. Concurrent exposure to EGF (20 nM) and mAb 225 (300 nM) resulted in comparable enhanced degradation (T1/2 = 9.5 h), with increased phosphorylation only on serine and threonine residues. These results suggest that serine/threonine phosphorylation is irrelevant to the augmentation of receptor degradation. Methylamine, an inhibitor of lysosomal function that did not affect phosphorylation of the EGF receptor, completely protected EGF receptors from rapid degradation induced by EGF, but it only slightly altered the rate of EGF receptor degradation elicited by mAb 225 or by EGF plus 15-fold excess mAb 225. In contrast, mAb 455, which binds to the receptor but does not inhibit EGF binding and EGF-induced activation of phosphorylation on tyrosine, serine, and threonine residues, did not influence EGF-induced rapid, methylamine sensitive degradation of EGF receptor. The results suggest that when EGF receptors are internalized under conditions that do not activate the receptor tyrosine kinase, they are sorted into a nonlysosomal pathway that differs from the methylamine-sensitive lysosomal pathway traversed following activation by EGF. The data indicate the possibility of a function for tyrosine kinase activation and tyrosine autophosphorylation in determining the lysosomal intracellular pathway of EGF receptor processing and degradation. 相似文献

While a cAMP-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase A) has been suggested to phosphorylate epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor in vitro, both intrinsic and EGF- or potent phorbol tumor promoter-induced phosphorylation of EGF receptor were found to be depressed in human epidermoid carcinoma A431 cells by prior incubation of the cells with various protein kinase A activators (e.g. cholera toxin, forskolin, cAMP analogues, or a combination of prostaglandin E1 and 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine). Protein kinase A activators did not change significantly either the number of EGF receptors or their affinity for EGF. The tryptic phosphopeptide map of EGF receptors from cells treated with cholera toxin alone or cholera toxin followed by EGF revealed unique peptides whose serine phosphorylation was preferentially depressed. However, the catalytic subunit of protein kinase A phosphorylated no threonine and little serine in the EGF receptors in the plasma membranes of isolated A431 cells in vitro, while serine residues in an unidentified 170-kDa membrane protein(s) other than EGF receptor were heavily phosphorylated. Pretreatment of the cells with forskolin blocked 1,2-diacylglycerol induction by EGF; growth inhibition by nanomolar levels of EGF could be partially restored by the presence of forskolin. These results indicate that an increase in intracellular cAMP modulates the EGF receptor signal transduction system by reducing EGF-induced production of diacylglycerol without direct phosphorylation of EGF receptors by protein kinase A in A431 cells. 相似文献

Progesterone receptors are phosphoproteins, in which phosphorylation has been proposed as a control mechanism for some stages of hormone action. Progesterone administration was shown to increase phosphorylation of the receptor from both cytosol and nuclear extracts of whole cells. We have analyzed the receptor phosphopeptides generated by chemical and proteolytic cleavage to assess the number of phosphorylation sites and their approximate location in the receptor. Progesterone receptor was labeled in situ in the presence or absence of hormone in medium containing [32P] orthophosphate, isolated by immunoprecipitation, and then digested with several proteases. The resulting 32P-labeled peptides were resolved by either two-dimensional electrophoresis:chromatography or by reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography. Multiple phosphopeptides (3-6) were detected after cleavage with trypsin, chymotrypsin, or V8 protease. Major increases in phosphorylation occurred at existing sites since after hormone treatment no new phosphopeptides were found. Individual phosphopeptides showed variable increases in phosphorylation of 1.5-5-fold. The A and B receptor forms showed identical phosphorylation patterns, indicating similar processing in vivo. The phosphopeptide pattern for receptor in nuclear extracts resembled that of cytosol receptor. Chemical cleavage was used to assess the distribution of phosphorylation sites. Cyanogen bromide produced a large 40-kDa polypeptide which contained all of the phosphorylation sites and comprised the residues 129-449. Hydroxylamine was used to cleave a unique bond, Asn-372-Gly-373, in the 40-kDa polypeptide. All of the phosphorylation sites were located on the amino-terminal side of the cleavage. Thus, all of the phosphorylation sites were localized to a specific region (Met-129 to Asn-372) of the progesterone receptor that does not include either the DNA or steroid binding domains. 相似文献

Previous studies of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) action on tumor cells revealed a possible role for tyrosine phosphorylation of epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor in the growth-regulatory activities of this cytokine (N. J. Donato, G. E. Gallick, P. A. Steck, and M. G. Rosenblum, J. Biol. Chem., 264: 20474-20481, 1989). EGF receptor immunoprecipitated from [32P] phosphate-equilibrated A431 cells demonstrated that TNF treatment resulted in both a time- and concentration-dependent stimulation of EGF receptor phosphorylation, which was maximal (approximately 3-fold) after 10-20 min of TNF exposure (10 nM). Incubation of A431 cells with an equivalent concentration of EGF resulted in similar stimulation of EGF receptor phosphorylation, albeit at different phosphotyrosine levels. Antiphosphotyrosine immunoblot analysis confirmed these results but suggested that the extent and kinetics of TNF-induced tyrosine phosphorylation were distinct from those obtained in EGF-treated cells. Resolution of tryptic phosphopeptides from EGF receptor demonstrated that TNF-induced phosphorylation of EGF receptor was similar, but not identical, to profiles obtained from EGF-treated cells and distinct when compared to the actions of phorbol ester. Unlike EGF, TNF was unable to directly stimulate EGF receptor tyrosine kinase activity in membranes prepared from A431 cells. In addition, TNF treatment had no significant effect on either the high- or low-affinity ligand-binding sites on EGF receptor and did not alter the kinetics or extent of ligand-induced internalization of EGF receptors. However, EGF receptor biosynthesis was consistently increased upon prolonged treatment with TNF (4-12 h). Our results suggest that TNF regulates both phosphorylation and biosynthesis of EGF receptor in a manner distinct from that of both EGF and phorbol ester, and studies of the differential phosphorylation of EGF receptor may aid in understanding the molecular mode of TNF action. 相似文献

Treatment of cells with tumor-promoting phorbol diesters, which causes activation of protein kinase C, leads to phosphorylation of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor at threonine-654. Addition of phorbol diesters to intact cells causes inhibition of the EGF-induced tyrosine-protein kinase activity of the EGF receptor and it has been suggested that this effect of phorbol diesters is mediated by the phosphorylation of the receptor by protein kinase C. We measured the activity of protein kinase C in A431 cells by determining the incorporation of [32P]phosphate into peptides containing threonine-654 obtained by trypsin digestion of EGF receptors. After 3 h of exposure to serum-free medium, A431 cells had no detectable protein kinase C activity. Addition of EGF to these cells resulted in [32P] incorporation into threonine-654 as well as into tyrosine residues. This indicates that EGF promotes the activation of protein kinase C in A431 cells. The phosphorylation of threonine-654 induced by EGF was maximal after only 5 min of EGF addition and the [32P] incorporation into threonine-654 reached 50% of the [32P] in a tyrosine-containing peptide. This indicates that a significant percentage of the total EGF receptors are phosphorylated by protein kinase C. A variety of external stimuli activate Na+/H+ exchange, including EGF, phorbol diesters, and hypertonicity. To ascertain whether activation of protein kinase C is an intracellular common effector of all of these systems, we measured the activity of protein kinase C after exposure of A431 cells to hyperosmotic conditions and observed no effect on phosphorylation of threonine-654, therefore, activation of Na+/H+ exchange by hypertonic medium is independent of protein kinase C activity. Since stimulation of protein kinase C by phorbol diesters results in a decrease in EGF receptor activity, the stimulation of protein kinase C activity by addition of EGF to A431 cells contributes to a feedback mechanism which results in the attenuation of EGF receptor function. 相似文献

Vitamin K-3 or 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA) reduced the binding of epidermal growth factor (EGF) to its receptor by more than 90% in human foreskin fibroblasts. After the equilibration of fibroblasts with [32P]orthophosphate, vitamin K-3 or TPA markedly increased the amount of 32P found in the receptor; the increase was principally due to serine and threonine phosphorylation. By the use of two-dimensional tryptic phosphopeptide mapping, using a synthetic phosphopeptide as a standard, threonine-654 was identified as one of the residues whose phosphorylation state was elevated by vitamin K-3 or TPA. Because of the large amounts of EGF receptor present on A431 human carcinoma cells, these cells were used to study further the relationship between the phosphorylation state of threonine-654, the tyrosine phosphorylation state of the receptor, and the receptor's protein tyrosine kinase activity toward exogenous substrates. Vitamin K-3 and TPA both increased the amount of phosphate on threonine-654 in A431 cells. However, whereas receptor from TPA-treated cells lacked phosphotyrosine, vitamin K-3-treated cells contained receptor with markedly elevated levels of phosphotyrosine. The addition of vitamin K-3, TPA or EGF to intact A431 cells followed by homogenization of the cells and the assay of EGF receptor protein tyrosine kinase activity by the use of a synthetic peptide substrate resulted in marked decreases in apparent receptor kinase activity. Therefore, assuming that the activity measured in the peptide assay reflects the protein tyrosine kinase activity of the receptor in the intact cell, the activity of the EGF receptor kinase cannot be deduced from the amount of phosphotyrosine associated with the receptor. 相似文献

The major sites of serine and threonine phosphorylation of the human epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor observed in intact cells are Thr654, Thr669, Ser1046, and Ser1047. Phosphorylation of the EGF receptor is increased at these sites in cells treated with platelet-derived growth factor or phorbol ester. This increase in EGF receptor phosphorylation is associated with an inhibition of the high affinity binding of EGF to cell surface receptors and an inhibition of the receptor tyrosine protein kinase activity. In order to test the hypothesis that the phosphorylation of the EGF receptor is mechanistically related to the modulation of EGF receptor function, we replaced the major sites of serine and threonine phosphorylation with alanine residues. EGF receptors containing single point mutations or multiple mutations were expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells. Analysis of the regulation of the EGF receptor tyrosine protein kinase activity demonstrated that phorbol ester caused an inhibition of the tyrosine phosphorylation of wild-type receptors and receptors lacking Thr669, Ser1046, or Ser1047. In contrast, the inhibition of EGF receptor tyrosine phosphorylation caused by phorbol ester was not observed for any of the mutated EGF receptors that lacked Thr654. These data are consistent with the hypothesis that the phosphorylation of the EGF receptor at Thr654 is required for the inhibition of the receptor tyrosine protein kinase activity caused by phorbol ester. Investigation of the apparent affinity of the EGF receptor demonstrated that treatment with phorbol ester caused an inhibition of the high affinity binding of 125I-EGF to cells expressing wild-type EGF receptors and each of the mutated EGF receptors examined. We conclude that the regulation of the apparent affinity of the EGF receptor is independent of the major sites of serine and threonine phosphorylation of the EGF receptor. 相似文献

Avian progesterone receptor exists as two forms, A and B, with molecular weights of 79,000 and 110,000 daltons, respectively. The origin and significance of these two forms is an area of active investigation and debate. Monoclonal antibodies produced against these two forms were used to examine receptor stability in cytosol and changes in the receptor forms induced by hormone binding. The lability of hormone binding at elevated temperatures is well documented. Analysis by Western blotting showed the receptor was stable in freshly prepared oviduct cytosol for 2 hr at 37°C, while hormone binding was lost within 30 min. However, loss of receptor through degradation was seen when cytosol was prepared from frozen tissue or when homogenization was excessive. Progesterone was injected into diethylstilbestrol-stimulated chicks to examine, in vivo, effects of hormone treatment on receptor forms in the cytosol and nuclear fractions. Progesterone treatment caused a time- and dose-dependent conversion of the A receptor to a form (A′) with a slower electrophoretic mobility. The cytosolic progesterone receptor was divided equally between the B and A forms, while the nuclear receptor was predominantly A′. The amount of nuclear receptor was consistently less than cytosolic receptor. Receptor phosphorylation was analyzed by incubating tissue minces with [32P]orthophosphate with or without progesterone followed by immune isolation of receptor forms. Progesterone treatment caused a time-dependent increase in cytosol receptor phosphorylation which was evident after 5 min of treatment. This phosphorylation was observed with both the A and B receptor forms. The results indicate that receptor phosphorylation is a very early event during progesterone action. 相似文献

Addition of amiloride to A431 human epidermoid carcinoma cell membranes inhibited autophosphorylation of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor. The tyrosine phosphorylation of histone H2B catalyzed by an affinity-purified preparation of EGF receptor was also inhibited by amiloride. The inhibition was noncompetitive with respect to histone but competitive with ATP, suggesting that amiloride may act as an ATP analogue which causes the formation of nonproductive enzyme-substrate complexes. The tyrosine phosphorylation of histone H2B catalyzed by the purified EGF receptor was inhibited by amiloride at concentrations identical to those previously reported to block EGF action on cell proliferation (Ki = 350 microM). Amiloride similarly inhibited the tyrosine phosphorylation of the human placental insulin receptor and the platelet-derived growth factor receptor of Swiss 3T3 cells. Immunoprecipitation of the EGF receptor from A431 cells labeled for 24 h with [32P]phosphate demonstrated that amiloride decreased the phosphorylation of the EGF receptor on serine and threonine residues and blocked the effect of EGF to cause phosphorylation of the receptor on tyrosine residues. Phosphoamino acid analysis of total cell proteins indicated that amiloride inhibited the increase in phosphotyrosine levels caused by EGF. We conclude that amiloride directly inhibits the tyrosine kinase activity of the receptors for EGF, insulin, and platelet-derived growth factor in in vitro and can mediate such actions in vivo. This effect of amiloride demonstrates that it is unsuitable as a drug to test the hypothesis that the stimulation of the Na+/H+ antiporter is essential for mitogenic signaling by growth factor receptors. 相似文献

Dopamine D2 receptor activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERKs) in non-neuronal human embryonic kidney 293 cells was dependent on transactivation of the platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) receptor, as demonstrated by the effect of the PDGF receptor inhibitors tyrphostin A9 and AG 370 on quinpirole-induced phosphorylation of ERKs and by quinpirole-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of the PDGF receptor. In contrast, ectopically expressed D2 receptor or endogenous D2-like receptor activation of ERKs in NS20Y neuroblastoma cells, which express little or no PDGF receptor, or in rat neostriatal neurons was largely dependent on transactivation of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor, as demonstrated using the EGF receptor inhibitor AG 1478 and by quinpirole-induced phosphorylation of the EGF receptor. The D2 receptor agonist quinpirole enhanced the coprecipitation of D2 and EGF receptors in NS20Y cells, suggesting that D2 receptor activation induced the formation of a macromolecular signaling complex that includes both receptors. Transactivation of the EGF receptor also involved the activity of a matrix metalloproteinase. Thus, although D2 receptor stimulation of ERKs in both cell lines was decreased by inhibitors of ERK kinase, Src-family protein tyrosine kinases, and serine/threonine protein kinases, D2-like receptors activated ERKs via transactivation of the EGF receptor in NS20Y neuroblastoma cells and rat embryonic neostriatal neurons, but via transactivation of the PDGF receptor in 293 cells. 相似文献

Intact A431 cells were labeled with [gamma-32P]ATP. The major phosphorylation product of the ecto-kinase activity of A431 cells had the molecular mass of 170 kd and was identified as EGF receptor by specific immunoprecipitation. This phosphorylation was not stimulated by EGF added to the reaction buffer, but replacement of MgCl2 by MnCl2 in the buffer remarkably stimulated phosphorylation. An exogenous protein substrate, alpha-casein, was also phosphorylated by intact A431 cells. The analyses for phospho-amino acids of both EGF receptor and alpha-casein revealed that phosphorylation occurred mainly at phosphotyrosine residues. Tryptic phospho-peptides of the EGF receptor of intact A431 cells labeled with [gamma-32P]ATP were fractionated by HPLC. The elution patterns were essentially the same as that of the autophosphorylated EGF receptor, indicating that the phosphorylation sites of EGF receptor labeled in vivo with [gamma-32P]ATP are located in three tyrosine residues in the carboxyl terminus. These results indicate that the carboxyl-terminal tyrosine kinase domain of a small fraction of the EGF receptor molecules of an A431 cell is exposed on the outer surface of the cells. 相似文献

Tumor-promoting phorbol diesters mediate phosphorylation of the epidermal growth factor receptor 总被引:20,自引:0,他引:20
4 beta-Phorbol 12 beta-myristate 13 alpha-acetate (PMA) markedly inhibited the binding of low concentrations (less than 10(-9 m) of 125I-epidermal growth factor (EGF) to A431 human epidermoid carcinoma cells. However, very little change in the binding of 125-I-EGF at high concentrations (greater than 10(-8) M) was observed in response to PMA. Affinity labeling of the 170,000-dalton EGF receptor with 125I-EGF and disuccinimidyl suberate was also decreased by the tumor promoter at low, but not high, concentrations of 125I-EGF. In order to examine this action of PMA on the EGF receptor, the receptor phosphorylation state was evaluated in A431 cells that had been incubated with [32P]phosphate for 3 h prior to the addition of PMA. The 32P content of the EGF receptor purified with EGF-Sepharose was increased by 38% compared with the same amount of receptor isolated from control cells. The increase in EGF receptor phosphorylation was dose-dependent with a half-maximal effect between 0.1 and 1 nM PMA and was specific for tumor promoting analogues of phorbol diesters. Phosphoamino acid analysis indicated that the increase in the 32P content of the EGF receptor was mainly due to phosphoserine. These results demonstrate that the EGF receptor is a target for PMA action and suggest that the mechanism of PMA action on the response of cells to epidermal growth factor may be mediated in part by phosphorylation of the EGF receptor. 相似文献

The meiotic maturation of Xenopus laevis oocytes is induced in vitro by progesterone which interacts at the cell surface level. A cell-free membrane preparation (P-10,000) incorporated 32P from [gamma-32P]ATP, mostly into two proteins, Mr approximately 56,000 and approximately 48,000 (as determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis). Progesterone, added in vitro, specifically inhibited the phosphorylation of the Mr approximately 48,000 protein (named p48). Half-maximal inhibition of p48 phosphorylation occurred with progesterone approximately 8 microM, in good correlation with hormone concentration inducing oocyte maturation. The effect was not due to stimulation of protein phosphatase activity. The potent maturation inducers testosterone and deoxycorticosterone also inhibited p48 phosphorylation, whereas biologically inactive steroids or cholesterol did not. p48 phosphorylation was not affected by cAMP, cGMP, polyamines, calmodulin, and phospholipids + diolein. EGTA had a stimulatory effect which was reversed by added Ca2+. The inhibitory effects of progesterone and Ca2+ were additive, suggesting two distinct sites of action. Phospho-p48 was not detected in yolk platelets, microsomes, and cytosol of oocytes. Contrary to p48 itself, the p48 kinase activity was loosely associated with P-10,000. Progesterone inhibited p48 phosphorylation produced by either cytosol or exogenous pure catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Conversely, phosphorylation of casein and histones by protein kinase activity present in P-10,000 was not modified by progesterone. It is then suggested that progesterone regulates p48 phosphorylation by affecting the protein substrate in the membrane, rather than by inhibiting the protein kinase enzyme itself. The data demonstrate a direct effect (not mediated by change of protein synthesis) of steroids on p48 phosphorylation in the plasma membrane, and they suggest that this protein could be implicated in the initial action of progesterone on oocyte maturation. 相似文献

Interleukin 1 or tumor necrosis factor alpha can cause a transient down-modulation of epidermal growth factor (EGF) binding to quiescent fibroblast monolayers; the effect results from a reduction in EGF receptor (EGF-R) affinity and appears to be mediated by a protein kinase C (PKC)-independent mechanism. Here we show transient increases in EGF-R serine/threonine phosphorylation which are temporally coordinated with the effects on EGF binding; we also demonstrate that the cytokine-mediated phosphorylations, unlike those caused by PKC activators, have little discernible effect upon intrinsic EGF-R-associated tyrosine kinase activity. Cytokine-mediated EGF-R phosphorylation is resistant to staurosporine, an extremely potent inhibitor of PKC. Analysis of tryptic 32P-phosphopeptides reveals that Thr654, the unique site of PKC-mediated phosphorylation, is not phosphorylated in cytokine-treated cells, but a different, relatively acidic, peptide containing phosphoserine can be detected instead. 相似文献

The biosynthesis, phosphorylation, and degradation of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor were examined in normal human fibroblasts. The receptor was initially synthesized as an Mr = 160,000 immature form which matured to an Mr = 170,000 form in a monensin-sensitive manner. Tunicamycin treatment led to the accumulation of an Mr = 130,000 protein. The receptor was phosphorylated on serine and threonine residues in normally growing and quiescent cells, and treatment with EGF or the tumor promoter 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) resulted in a two- to threefold increase in receptor-bound phosphate. EGF increased the amount of phosphoserine and phosphothreonine and caused the appearance of a minor amount of phosphotyrosine. TPA increased the levels of phosphoserine and phosphothreonine exclusively. Prior treatment with TPA inhibited the EGF-dependent appearance of phosphotyrosine in the receptor. Analysis of tryptic phosphopeptides revealed that six of the seven major peptides were common to the receptor from cells treated with EGF or TPA. EGF strongly stimulated [3H]thymidine incorporation in confluent cells, increased final saturation density three to fourfold, and increased whole-cell levels of phosphotyrosine about threefold. Treatment of cells with TPA before addition of EGF inhibited all three of these EGF-dependent responses. EGF also decreased the receptor half-life from 15 h to 1 h, but this was not inhibited by TPA. TPA alone had no detectable effect on the receptor half-life. 相似文献
