The ability of epidermal growth factor (EGF) and angiotensin II to stimulate production of inositol trisphosphate and mobilize intracellular Ca2+ in hepatocytes was compared using quin2 fluorescence to monitor changes in Ca2+ levels and high performance liquid chromatography to resolve the inositol trisphosphate (InsP3) isomers. Both EGF and angiotensin II stimulated an increase in free intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) as well as a rapid increase in the production of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3). Concentrations of angiotensin II which gave a rise in [Ca2+]i equivalent to that seen with maximal doses of EGF produced an equivalent increase in Ins(1,4,5)P3 formation. Both EGF and angiotensin II stimulated the formation of the Ins(1,3,4)P3 and inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate isomers. The formation of the Ins(1,3,4)P3 isomer lagged behind production of Ins(1,4,5)P3 but eventually reached higher levels in the cell. The initial rise in [Ca2+]i and InsP3 levels stimulated by EGF and angiotensin II was not affected by reducing the external Ca2+ concentration below 30 nM with an excess of [ethylenebis(oxyethylenenitrilo)] tetraacetic acid. Treatment of hepatocytes for 30-180 s with 1 micrograms/ml phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate prior to the addition of EGF blocked the EGF-stimulated production of Ins(1,4,5)P3 and the increase in [Ca2+]i. Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate attenuated the production of Ins(1,4,5)P3 generated by angiotensin II over the concentration range of 10(-10) to 10(-8) M; however, the Ca2+ signal was only inhibited at the 10(-10) M dose of angiotensin II. Treatment of rats with pertussis toxin for 72 h prior to isolating hepatocytes blocked the ability of EGF to increase Ins(1,4,5)P3 and Ins(1,3,4)P3 but did not inhibit the ability of any concentration of angiotensin II to stimulate formation of InsP3 or inositol tetrakisphosphate. The observation that pertussis toxin selectively abolishes EGF-stimulated inositol lipid breakdown suggests that EGF and angiotensin II use different mechanisms to activate phospholipase C in hepatocytes.  相似文献

Studies were performed to examine a potential role for a guanine nucleotide-binding protein in epidermal growth factor (EGF)-stimulated phospholipase A2 (PLA2) activity. EGF increased prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) production in intact or saponin-permeabilized rat inner medullary collecting tubule (RIMCT) cells. Incubation of permeabilized cells with guanosine 5'-O-(thiotriphosphate) (GTP gamma S) enhanced and with guanosine 5'-O-(2-thiodiphosphate) (GDP beta S) inhibited the response to EGF. GDP beta S had no effect on ionomycin-stimulated PGE2 production. Exposure of intact cells to 25 mM NaF + 10 microM AlCl3 enhanced both basal and EGF-stimulated PGE2 production. Pertussis toxin ADP-ribosylated a 41-kDa protein in RIMCT cell membranes. Pretreatment of cells with pertussis toxin (100 ng/ml for 16 h) eliminated the response to EGF in intact cells and the response to EGF + GTP gamma S in permeabilized cells. Pertussis toxin had no effect on the response to ionomycin. The effect of pertussis toxin was not due to alterations in cAMP as cellular cAMP levels were unaffected by pertussis toxin both in the basal state and in the presence of EGF. PGE2 production in response to EGF was not transduced by a G protein coupled to phospholipase C (PLC) as neomycin, which inhibited PLC, did not decrease EGF-stimulated PGE2 production. Also, PGE2 production was not increased by inositol trisphosphate and did not require the presence of extracellular Ca2+. In contrast to EGF-stimulated PLC activity, stimulation of PLA2 by EGF was not susceptible to inhibition by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate. These results clearly demonstrate the existence of a PLA2-specific pertussis toxin-inhibitable guanine nucleotide-binding protein coupled to the EGF receptor in RIMCT cells.  相似文献

Over 30 inositol polyphosphates are known to exist in mammalian cells; however, the majority of them have uncharacterized functions. In this study we investigated the molecular basis of synthesis of highly phosphorylated inositol polyphosphates (such as inositol tetrakisphosphate, inositol pentakisphosphate (IP5), and inositol hexakisphosphate (IP6)) in rat cells. We report that heterologous expression of rat inositol polyphosphate kinases rIPK2, a dual specificity inositol trisphosphate/inositol tetrakisphosphate kinase, and rIPK1, an IP5 2-kinase, were sufficient to recapitulate IP6 synthesis from inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate in mutant yeast cells. Overexpression of rIPK2 in Rat-1 cells increased inositol 1,3,4,5,6-pentakisphosphate (I(1,3,4,5,6)P5) levels about 2-3-fold compared with control. Likewise in Rat-1 cells, overexpression of rIPK1 was capable of completely converting I(1,3,4,5,6)P5 to IP6. Simultaneous overexpression of both rIPK2 and rIPK1 in Rat-1 cells increased both IP5 and IP6 levels. To reduce IPK2 activity in Rat-1 cells, we introduced vector-based short interference RNA against rIPK2. Cells harboring the short interference RNA had a 90% reduction of mRNA levels and a 75% decrease of I(1,3,4,5,6)P5. These data confirm the involvement of IPK2 and IPK1 in the conversion of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate to IP6 in rat cells. Furthermore these data suggest that rIPK2 and rIPK1 act as key determining steps in production of IP5 and IP6, respectively. The ability to modulate the intracellular inositol polyphosphate levels by altering IPK2 and IPK1 expression in rat cells will provide powerful tools to study the roles of I(1,3,4,5,6)P5 and IP6 in cell signaling.  相似文献

Both substance P and carbachol produced increases in inositol tris- and tetrakisphosphate and increased cytosolic free [Ca2+] in dispersed parotid acinar cells loaded with fura-2. The increase in [Ca2+]i in response to each agonist was due to a combination of mobilization of internal Ca2+ and entry of extracellular Ca2+. Kinetic studies of the initial response to substance P, and measurement of peak [Ca2+]i, demonstrated that the initial rapid rise in [Ca2+]i was due to both internal release and entry of Ca2+. Substance P could evoke a greater initial increase in [Ca2+]i and inositol trisphosphate than could carbachol. However, after 1 min in the presence of external Ca2+, the maintained [Ca2+]i level in response to substance P was considerably smaller than that seen with carbachol, an effect apparently due to homologous desensitization of the substance P receptor. The two agonists each produced a similar 4-5-fold increase in inositol tetrakisphosphate levels within 30 s; this level was maintained in the presence of carbachol, but decreased with substance P. Similarly, the level of inositol (1,4,5)-trisphosphate decreased after prolonged incubation with substance P. Thus, the maintained level of [Ca2+]i, and by deduction Ca2+ entry, correlated with the levels of inositol (1,4,5)-trisphosphate and inositol tetrakisphosphate; a result consistent with a possible role for these inositol phosphates in the control of receptor-mediated Ca2+ channels.  相似文献

Epidermal growth factor (EGF) treatment of A-431 cells induces a biphasic increase in the levels of inositol phosphates. The growth factor produces an initial, rapid increase in the level of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins-1,4,5-P3) due to hydrolysis of phosphatidyl-inositol-4,5-bisphosphate (Wahl, M., Sweatt, J. D., and Carpenter, G. (1987) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 142, 688-695). The level of inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate (Ins-1,3,4,5-P4) also rises rapidly in response to treatment with EGF. The initial formation (less than 1 min) of Ins-1,4,5-P3 and Ins-1,3,4,5-P4 does not require Ca2+ present in the culture medium. However, the addition of Ca2+ to the medium at levels of 100 microM or greater potentiates the growth factor-stimulated increases in the levels of all inositol phosphates at later times after EGF addition (1-60 min). The data suggest that EGF-receptor complexes initially stimulate the enzyme phospholipase C in a manner that is independent of an influx of extracellular Ca2+. The presence of Ca2+ in the medium allows prolonged growth factor activation of phospholipase C. Treatment of A-431 cells with Ca2+ ionophores (A23187 and ionomycin) did not mimic the activity of EGF in producing a rapid increase in the formation of the Dowex column fraction containing Ins-1,4,5-P3, Ins-1,3,4,5-P4, and inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate (InsP3). However, the initial EGF-stimulated formation of inositol phosphates was substantially diminished in cells loaded with the Ca2+ chelator Quin 2/AM. EGF receptor occupancy studies indicated that maximal stimulation of InsP3 accumulation by EGF requires nearly full (75%) occupancy of available EGF binding sites, while half-maximal stimulation requires 25% occupancy. 12-O-Tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA), an exogenous activator of Ca2+/phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase C), causes a dramatic, but transient, inhibition of the EGF-stimulated formation of inositol phosphates. Tamoxifen and sphingosine, reported pharmacologic inhibitors of protein kinase C activity, potentiate the capacity of EGF to induce formation of inositol phosphates. Neither TPA nor tamoxifen significantly affects the 125I-EGF binding capacity of A-431 cells; however, TPA appeared to enhance internalization of the ligand. Ligand occupation of the EGF receptor on the A-431 cell appears to initiate a complex signaling mechanism involving production of intracellular messengers for Ca2+ mobilization and activation of protein kinase C.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)  相似文献

Epidermal growth factor (EGF)-induced increases in cytosolic Ca2+ and inositol polyphosphate production were compared in a human hepatocellular carcinoma-derived cell line, PLC/PRF/5, and in an EGF receptor-overexpressing subline, NPLC/PRF/5. Formation of these second messengers was correlated to EGF receptor display at the cell surface by monitoring ligand-induced EGF receptor down-regulation. Both cell lines exhibited a strikingly similar cytosolic Ca2+ increase upon exposure to EGF. The initial inositol phosphate responses were also similar in the two cell lines; inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate increased within 10-15 s and returned to prestimulatory values after 2 min in both cell lines, while inositol tetrakisphosphate and inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate were elevated after a 2-min exposure to EGF. At later times the responses were markedly different; NPLC/PRF/5 cells exhibited prolonged production of inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate and inositol tetrakisphosphate (maximum at 1-3 h) but PLC/PRF/5 cells showed decreased levels of these isomers after 10 min and a return to basal values by 1 h. Exposure of PLC/PRF/5 cells to EGF caused a progressive decrease in the amount of EGF receptor at the cell surface whereas such treatment did not change the surface receptor levels in NPLC/PRF/5 cells. Kinetic analysis of EGF receptor down-regulation showed that receptor internalization was rapid enough to account for the transient nature of the inositol phosphate response in PLC/PRF/5 cells. Thus, the divergent patterns of signaling exhibited by the two cell lines may reflect differences in the efficiency of EGF-induced down-regulation of surface receptors.  相似文献

Rat PC-12 pheochromocytoma cells respond to stimulation with bradykinin, angiotensin II, and carbachol with an increased formation of labeled inositol phosphates after preincubation of the cells with [3H]inositol. Li+ potentiates greatly the agonist-induced increase in amount of inositol mono-, bis-, and trisphosphate but not the increase in amount of inositol tetrakisphosphate. Separation of the isomers of inositol trisphosphate shows that the lithium-induced increase in amount of inositol trisphosphate is due to potentiation evoked by lithium of the accumulation of inositol-1,3,4-trisphosphate.  相似文献

The inositol trisphosphate liberated on stimulation of guinea-pig hepatocytes, pancreatic acinar cells and dimethyl sulphoxide-differentiated human myelomonocytic HL-60 leukaemia cells is composed of two isomers, the 1,4,5-trisphosphate and the 1,3,4-trisphosphate. Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate was released rapidly, with no measurable latency on hormone stimulation, and, consistent with its proposed role as an intracellular messenger for Ca2+ mobilization, there was good temporal correlation between its formation and Ca2+-mediated events in these tissues. There was a definite latency before an increase in the formation of inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate could be detected. In all of these tissues, however, it formed a substantial proportion of the total inositol trisphosphate by 1 min of stimulation. In guinea-pig hepatocytes, where inositol trisphosphate increases for at least 30 min after hormone application, inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate made up about 90% of the total inositol trisphosphate by 5-10 min. In pancreatic acinar cells, pretreatment with 20 mM-Li+ caused an increase in hormone-induced inositol trisphosphate accumulation. This increase was accounted for by a rise in inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate; inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate was unaffected. This finding is consistent with the observation that Li+ has no effect on Ca2+-mediated responses in these cells. The role, if any, of inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate in cellular function is unknown.  相似文献

Transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF beta 1) is a multifunctional regulator of cell growth and differentiation. We report here that TGF beta 1 decreased the proliferation of nontransformed bovine anterior pituitary-derived cells grown in culture. We have previously demonstrated that these cells express both TGF alpha and its receptor [the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor] and that expression can be stimulated by phorbol ester (TPA) and EGF. TGF beta 1 treatment over a 2-day period decreased the proliferation of pituitary cells. This decreased growth rate was accompanied by a decrease in the TGF alpha mRNA level. The effect of TGF beta 1 on TGF alpha mRNA down-regulation was both dose dependent (maximal effect observed at 1.0 ng/ml TGF beta 1) and time dependent (minimum of 2-day treatment with TGF beta 1 was required before a decrease in TGF alpha mRNA was observed). Studies on TGF alpha mRNA stability indicated that TGF beta 1 did not alter the TGF alpha mRNA half-life. Treatment of the TGF beta 1 down-regulated cells with EGF resulted in the stimulation of TGF alpha mRNA levels; thus, the TGF beta 1-treated cells remained responsive to EGF. The decreased proliferation in response to TGF beta 1 could be only partially reversed by simultaneous treatment of the cells with EGF (10(-9)M) and TGF beta 1 (3.0 ng/ml). Qualitatively, the TGF beta 1-induced reduction of TGF alpha mRNA content was independent of cell density. TGF beta 1 treatment of the anterior pituitary-derived cells also reduced the levels of c-myc and EGF receptor mRNA. These results represent the first demonstration of the down-regulation of TGF alpha synthesis by a polypeptide growth factor and suggest that TGF beta 1 may be a physiological regulator of TGF alpha production in vivo.  相似文献

Both epidermal growth factor (EGF) and vanadate can activate 45Ca2+ influx into A431 epidermal carcinoma cells, without a detectable lag period possibly via a voltage-independent calcium channel. 22Na+/H+ exchange and 45Ca2+ uptake are mutually independent. Neither EGF nor vanadate induce any significant change in the steady-state levels of [1,3-3H]glycerol-labeled diacylglycerol, myo-[2-3H]inositol-labeled inositol trisphosphate or in 32P-labeled polyphosphoinositides or phosphatidic acid over the first 10 min of treatment, suggesting that the EGF receptor is not directly coupled to phosphatidylinositol turnover and that the two ion fluxes are not induced via a kinase C-dependent pathway. An increase in turnover of polyphosphoinositides can be detected in EGF-stimulated cells by nonequilibrium labeling with [32P]phosphate, but the increase shows a lag of about 1 min under the conditions used to detect 45Ca2+ influx. Chelation of free Ca2+ decreases but does not abolish the EGF-stimulated turnover. Preincubation with tetradecanoylphorbol acetate or 1-oleoyl-2-acetylglycerol inhibits the increase in 45Ca2+ uptake by both EGF and vanadate. Tetradecanoylphorbol acetate alone does not alter the basal rate of influx when added together with 45Ca2+. Surprisingly, the activation by vanadate and its inhibition by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate are unaffected by down-regulation of the EGF receptors through prior incubation with growth factor. Therefore, in A431 cells the activation of Na+/H+ exchange and Ca2+ influx appear to be independent of phosphatidylinositol turnover, and the EGF receptor does not itself function as a Ca2+ channel. Vanadate apparently activates influx through a mechanism distinct from or distal to the EGF receptor.  相似文献

Alterations in c-myc proto-oncogene expression after treatment of human mammary carcinoma MDA-468 cells with epidermal growth factor (EGF) and/or transforming growth factor beta (TGF beta) have been investigated. A stimulation of c-myc messenger RNA was detected within 60 min after treatment with EGF. This induction persisted for at least 24 hr, albeit to a lower extent. The early and late increase in c-myc mRNA levels induced by EGF were inhibited by the presence of TGF beta. TGF beta alone induced little change in c-myc mRNA levels. The effect of TGF beta represents a novel action of this hormone at the level of gene expression.  相似文献

Exposure of A431 human epidermoid carcinoma cells to epidermal growth factor (EGF), bradykinin, and histamine resulted in a time- and concentration-dependent accumulation of the inositol phosphates (InsP) inositol monophosphate, inositol bisphosphate, and inositol trisphosphate (InsP3). Maximal concentrations of EGF (316 ng/ml; approximately 50 nM), bradykinin (1 microM), and histamine (1 mM) resulted in 3-, 6-, and 3-fold increases, respectively, in the amounts of inositol phosphates formed over a 10-min period. The K0.5 values for stimulation were approximately 10 nM, 3 nM, and 10 microM for EGF, bradykinin, and histamine, respectively. EGF and bradykinin stimulated the rapid accumulation of the two isomers of InsP3, Ins(1,3,4)P3, and Ins(1,4,5)P3 as determined by high performance liquid chromatography analysis; maximal accumulation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 occurred within 15 s. EGF and bradykinin also stimulated a rapid (maximal levels attained within 30 s after addition of hormone) and a sustained 4- and 6-fold rise, respectively, in cytosolic free Ca2+ levels as measured by Fura-2 fluorescence. EGF and bradykinin also produced a rapid, although transient, 3- and 5-fold increase, respectively, in cytosolic free Ca2+ after chelation of extracellular Ca2+ with 3 mM EGTA. These data are consistent with the idea that EGF elevates intracellular Ca2+ levels in A431 cells, at least in part, as a result of the rapid formation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 and the consequential release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores.  相似文献

Second messenger molecules relay, amplify, and diversify cell surface receptor signals. Two important examples are phosphorylated D-myo-inositol derivatives, such as phosphoinositide lipids within cellular membranes, and soluble inositol phosphates. Here, we review how phosphoinositide metabolism generates multiple second messengers with important roles in T-cell development and function. They include soluble inositol(1,4,5)trisphosphate, long known for its Ca(2+)-mobilizing function, and phosphatidylinositol(3,4,5)trisphosphate, whose generation by phosphoinositide 3-kinase and turnover by the phosphatases PTEN and SHIP control a key "hub" of TCR signaling. More recent studies unveiled important second messenger functions for diacylglycerol, phosphatidic acid, and soluble inositol(1,3,4,5)tetrakisphosphate (IP(4)) in immune cells. Inositol(1,3,4,5)tetrakisphosphate acts as a soluble phosphatidylinositol(3,4,5)trisphosphate analog to control protein membrane recruitment. We propose that phosphoinositide lipids and soluble inositol phosphates (IPs) can act as complementary partners whose interplay could have broadly important roles in cellular signaling.  相似文献

We compared the effects of HGF and EGF on cytoplasmic free calcium concentration, [Ca2+]c, and inositol trisphosphate production in rat hepatocytes. HGF induced a prompt and transient elevation of [Ca2+]c. EGF also induced an immediate increase in [Ca2+]c, the magnitude of which was greater than that by HGF. In contrast, in the presence of 1 microM extracellular calcium EGF increased [Ca2+]c to a lesser extent than HGF. When cells were pretreated with EGF, the effect of HGF on [Ca2+]c was greatly enhanced. However, such enhancement was not observed in medium containing 1 microM extracellular calcium. In hepatocytes prelabeled with [3H]-inositol, both HGF and EGF increased [3H]inositol trisphosphate. HGF and EGF acted synergistically to stimulate production of inositol trisphosphate. These results indicate that both HGF and EGF increase [Ca2+]c by a mechanism involving phosphoinositide turnover and that the actions of HGF and EGF on hepatocyte calcium metabolism are not totally identical.  相似文献

We have investigated a new mechanism by which epidermal growth factor (EGF) increases intracellular Ca(2+) ([Ca(2+)](i)) in Rat-2 fibroblasts. EGF induced a transient increase of [Ca(2+)](i), and sustained Ca(2+) increase disappeared in the absence of extracellular Ca(2+). However, EGF had no effect on the formation of inositol phosphates. Expression of N17Rac or scrape-loading of C3 transferase blocked the elevation of [Ca(2+)](i) by EGF, but not by lysophosphatidic acid (LPA). EGF increased intracellular H(2)O(2), with a maximal increase at 5 min, which was blocked by catalase, scrape-loading of C3 transferase, or expression of N17Rac. H(2)O(2) scavengers, catalase and N-acetyl-L-cysteine, also blocked the Ca(2+) response to EGF, but not to LPA. In the presence of EGTA, preincubation with EGF completely inhibited subsequent Ca(2+) response to extracellular H(2)O(2) and vice versa. Incubation with EGF or phosphatidic acid abolished subsequent elevation of [Ca(2+)](i) by phosphatidic acid or EGF, respectively. Furthermore, preincubation with LPA inhibited the subsequent Ca(2+) response to EGF, but not vice versa. These results suggested that intracellular H(2)O(2) regulated by Rac and RhoA, but not inositol phosphates, was responsible for the EGF-stimulated elevation of [Ca(2+)](i). It was also suggested that EGF cross talked with LPA in the regulation of [Ca(2+)](i) by producing intracellular H(2)O(2).  相似文献

There are no reports of the effect of stretch on inositol phosphates in smooth muscle. Phosphoinositide and inositol phosphate metabolism was studied in cultured rat vascular smooth muscle cells subjected to stretching. The masses of inositol trisphosphate and tetrakisphosphate increased (+34 +/- 7% and +58 +/- 12%, respectively; p less than 0.001) after 25 s of a single 20% stretch and had returned to control levels by 45 s; phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylinositol phosphate and bisphosphate did not change. Repetitive stretch did not alter the masses of any of the compounds. A single stretch also increased 45Ca2+ efflux (+52 +/- 5%, p less than 0.01). These data suggest that stretch of cultured vascular smooth muscle can elicit a rapid, short-lived increase in inositol phosphates, which may subsequently affect Ca2+.  相似文献

Addition of epidermal growth factor (EGF) to many cell types activates phospholipase C resulting in increased levels of diacylglycerol and intracellular Ca2+ which may lead to activation of protein kinase C. EGF treatment of cells can also lead to phosphorylation of the EGF receptor at threonine 654 (a protein kinase C phosphorylation site) which appears to attenuate some aspects of receptor signaling. Thus, a feedback loop involving the EGF receptor, phospholipase C, and protein kinase C may regulate EGF receptor function. In this report, the role of phosphorylation of threonine 654 of the EGF receptor in regulation of EGF-stimulated activation of phospholipase C was investigated. NIH-3T3 cells expressing the normal human EGF receptor or expressing EGF receptor in which an alanine residue had been substituted at residue 654 of the receptor were used. Addition of EGF to cells expressing wild-type receptor induced a rapid, but transient, increase in phosphorylation of threonine 654. EGF addition also caused the rapid accumulation of inositol phosphates in these cells. EGF-stimulated accumulation of inositol phosphates was significantly higher in cells expressing Ala-654 receptors compared to control cells. Treatment of cells with 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA), which stimulated phosphorylation of threonine 654 to a greater degree than EGF, completely inhibited EGF-dependent inositol phosphate accumulation in cells expressing wild-type receptor, but caused only a 20-30% inhibition in Ala-654 expressing cells. EGF stimulated phosphorylation of phospholipase C-gamma on serine and tyrosine residues in cells expressing wild-type of Ala-654 receptors. However, TPA treatment of cells inhibited EGF-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of phospholipase C-gamma only in cells expressing wild-type receptors. Similarly, TPA inhibited tyrosine-specific autophosphorylation of the EGF receptor and tyrosine phosphorylation of several other proteins in wild-type receptor cells, but not in Ala-654 cells. TPA treatment abolished high affinity binding of EGF to cells expressing wild-type receptors, while decreasing the number of high affinity binding sites 20-30% in Ala-654 cells. These data suggest that phosphorylation of threonine 654 can regulate early events in EGF receptor signal transduction such as phosphoinositide turnover, probably through a feedback mechanism involving protein kinase C. Subsequent dephosphorylation of threonine 654 could reactivate the EGF receptor for participation in later signaling events.  相似文献
