It has previously been demonstrated that calmodulin can be phosphorylated in vitro and in vivo by both tyrosine-specific and serine/threonine protein kinase. We demonstrate here that the insulin receptor tyrosine kinase purified from human placenta phosphorylates calmodulin. The highly purified receptors (prepared by insulin-Sepharose chromatography) were 5-10 times more effective in catalysing the phosphorylation of calmodulin than an equal number of partially purified receptors (prepared by wheat-germ agglutinin-Sepharose chromatography). Phosphorylation occurred exclusively on tyrosine residues, up to a maximum of 1 mol [0.90 +/- 0.14 (n = 5)] of phosphate incorporated/mol of calmodulin. Phosphorylation of calmodulin was dependent on the presence of certain basic proteins and divalent cations. Some of these basic proteins, i.e. polylysine, polyarginine, polyornithine, protamine sulphate and histones H1 and H2B, were also able to stimulate the phosphorylation of calmodulin via an insulin-independent activation of the receptor tyrosine kinase. Addition of insulin further increased incorporation of 32P into calmodulin. The magnitude of the effect of insulin was dependent on the concentration and type of basic protein used, ranging from 0.5- to 9.0-fold stimulation. Maximal phosphorylation of calmodulin was obtained at an insulin concentration of 10(-10) M, with half-maximal effect at 10(-11) M. Either Mg2+ or Mn2+ was necessary to obtain phosphorylation, but Mg2+ was far more effective than Mn2+. In contrast, maximal phosphorylation of calmodulin was observed in the absence of Ca2+. Inhibition of phosphorylation was observed as free Ca2+ concentration exceeded 0.1 microM, with almost complete inhibition at 30 microM free Ca2+. The Km for calmodulin was approx. 0.1 microM. To gain further insight into the effects of basic proteins in this system, we examined the binding of calmodulin to the insulin receptor and the polylysine. Calmodulin binds to the insulin receptor in a Ca2+-dependent manner, whereas it binds to polylysine seemingly by electrostatic interactions. These studies identify calmodulin as a substrate for the highly purified insulin receptor tyrosine kinase of human placenta. They also demonstrate that the basic proteins, which are required for insulin to stimulate the phosphorylation of calmodulin, do so by a direct interaction with calmodulin. 相似文献

Epidermal growth factor dependent phosphorylation of a 35-kilodalton protein in placental membranes 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
In human placental membranes isolated in the presence of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), epidermal growth factor (EGF) stimulated the [gamma-32P]ATP-dependent phosphorylation of tyrosine residues on the 170-kilodalton (kDa) EGF receptor and on a 35-kDa protein. The initial rate of phosphorylation of these proteins in the presence of EGF was 5.2 and 3.5 nmol of phosphate min-1 (mg of receptor protein)-1, and this was approximately 10- and 6-fold higher than the basal rate, respectively. Half-maximal phosphorylation of both proteins occurred at about 2.5 nM EGF. In the presence of p-nitrophenyl phosphate, EGF stimulated the phosphorylation of the 35-kDa protein but not the EGF receptor, suggesting that hormone-stimulated autophosphorylation of the receptor/kinase was not required for kinase activation. The 35-kDa protein exists in two forms: (1) 35Keluate, which was associated with the membrane in the presence of Ca2+ but was eluted with EDTA, and (2) 35Kmemb, which was not eluted from membranes with EDTA. Both forms were immunologically related to a 35-kDa protein previously isolated from A431 cells. Antiserum against the 35-kDa protein also reacted with a protein with an apparent size of 66 kDa that was phosphorylated in an EGF-dependent manner. In phosphorylation reactions performed in the presence of Mg2+, Ca2+ was required for phosphorylation of the 35Keluate form, but Ca2+ was not required for phosphorylation of the 35Kmemb form. Phosphorylation appears to change the membrane-binding properties of the 35Kmemb form because 32P-labeled 35Kmemb could be eluted from the membrane by EDTA.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

C-kinase phosphorylates the epidermal growth factor receptor and reduces its epidermal growth factor-stimulated tyrosine protein kinase activity 总被引:84,自引:0,他引:84

The Ca2+- and phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (C-kinase) binds tightly in the presence of Ca2+ to purified membranes of A431 human epidermoid carcinoma cells. The major membrane substrate for C-kinase is the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor. Phosphorylation of the EGF receptor is Ca2+-dependent and occurs at threonine and serine residues. After tryptic digestion of the receptor, three major phosphothreonine-containing peptides were identified. These are identical with three new phosphopeptides present in the EGF receptor isolated from A431 cells treated with either of the tumor promoters 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate or teleocidin. C-kinase catalyzes phosphorylation at these same sites in purified EGF receptor protein. These results indicate that, in A431 cells exposed to tumor promoters, C-kinase catalyzes phosphorylation of a significant population of EGF receptor molecules. This phosphorylation of EGF receptors results in decreased self-phosphorylation of the EGF receptor at tyrosine residues both in vivo and in vitro and in decreased EGF-stimulated tyrosine kinase activity in vivo. 相似文献

Proteolytic cleavage of epidermal growth factor receptor. A Ca2+-dependent, sulfhydryl-sensitive proteolytic system in A431 cells 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
The Mr = 160,000 epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor in A431 cells is partially cleaved during membrane isolation to a Mr = 145,000 polypeptide containing both EGF binding and phosphate acceptor sites. We show that the proteolytic degradation of the EGF receptor depends upon the presence of Ca2+ in the medium used to scrape the cells from the substratum. Only the high molecular weight form of the receptor is detected in membranes prepared in the absence of Ca2+. Ca2+-dependent proteolysis occurs rapidly (t1/2 approximately 5 min) following cell scraping. Proteolysis results in a decrease in EGF-dependent phosphorylation of the receptor while retaining EGF binding capacity. In addition, membranes containing the uncleaved form of the receptor reveal a substantial increase in EGF-dependent phosphorylation of proteins with Mr approximately 80, 89, and 185 X 10(3). In the presence of Ca2+, addition of iodoacetic acid to the scraping medium strongly inhibits receptor fragmentation, whereas other inhibitors (phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride, leupeptin, and pepstatin) have no effect. The results implicate a role for a Ca2+-dependent, SH-sensitive protease in EGF receptor degradation. Prevention of proteolysis yields membrane preparations with highly active EGF-dependent kinase system. 相似文献

Membrane vesicles shed from intact A-431 epidermoid carcinoma cells and harvested in the presence of Ca2+ contained epidermal-growth-factor (EGF) receptor/kinase substrates of apparent molecular masses 185, 85, 70, 55, 38 and 27 kDa. The 38 kDa substrate (p38) was recognized by an antibody that had been raised against the human placental EGF receptor/kinase substrate calpactin II (lipocortin I). The A-431 and placental substrates, isolated by immunoprecipitation after phosphorylation in situ, yielded identical phosphopeptide maps upon limited proteolytic digestion with each of five different enzymes. The A-431-cell vesicular p38 is therefore calpactin II. EGF treatment of the intact A-431 cells before inducing vesiculation was not necessary for the substrate to be present within the vesicles. Our data thus indicate that receptor internalization is not a prerequisite for receptor-mediated phosphorylation of calpactin II. The ability of the protein to function as a substrate for the receptor/kinase depended upon the continued presence of Ca2+ during the vesicle-isolation procedure. EGF-stimulated phosphorylation of calpactin II was much less pronounced in vesicles prepared from A-431 cells in the absence of Ca2+, although comparable amounts of the protein were detectable by immunoblotting. Calpactin II therefore appears to be sequestered in a Ca2+-modulated manner within shed vesicles, along with at least four other major targets for the EGF receptor/kinase. The vesicle preparation may be a useful model system in which to study the phosphorylation and function of potentially important membrane-associated substrates for the receptor. 相似文献

Regulation of epidermal growth factor-stimulated formation of inositol phosphates in A-431 cells by calcium and protein kinase C 总被引:15,自引:0,他引:15
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

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

Ca2+-dependent hydrophobic-interaction chromatography. Isolation of a novel Ca2+-binding protein and protein kinase C from bovine brain. 总被引:9,自引:5,他引:4
M P Walsh K A Valentine P K Ngai C A Carruthers M D Hollenberg 《The Biochemical journal》1984,224(1):117-127
Several bovine brain proteins have been found to interact with a hydrophobic chromatography resin (phenyl-Sepharose CL-4B) in a Ca2+-dependent manner. These include calmodulin, the Ca2+/phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase C) and a novel Ca2+-binding protein that has now been purified to electrophoretic homogeneity. This latter protein is acidic (pI 5.1) and, like calmodulin and some other high-affinity Ca2+-binding proteins, exhibits a Ca2+-dependent mobility shift on sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis, with an apparent Mr of 22 000 in the absence of Ca2+ and Mr 21 000 in the presence of Ca2+. This novel calciprotein is distinct from known Ca2+-binding proteins on the basis of Mr under denaturing conditions, Cleveland peptide mapping and amino acid composition analysis. It may be a member of the calmodulin superfamily of Ca2+-binding proteins. This calciprotein does not activate two calmodulin-dependent enzymes, namely cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase and myosin light-chain kinase, nor does it have any effect on protein kinase C. It may be a Ca2+-dependent regulatory protein of an as-yet-undefined enzymic activity. The Ca2+/phospholipid-dependent protein kinase is also readily purified by Ca2+-dependent hydrophobic-interaction chromatography followed by ion-exchange chromatography, during which it is easily separated from calmodulin. A preparation of protein kinase C that lacks contaminating kinase or phosphatase activities is thereby obtained rapidly and simply. Such a preparation is ideal for the study of phosphorylation reactions catalysed in vitro by protein kinase C. 相似文献

Purification and characterization of a calcium-calmodulin-dependent phospholamban kinase from canine myocardium 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
A Ca2+-calmodulin-dependent protein kinase was purified to apparent homogeneity from the cytosolic fraction of canine myocardium, with phospholamban as substrate. Purification involved sequential chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, calmodulin-agarose, DEAE-Bio-Gel A, and phosphocellulose. This procedure resulted in a 987-fold purification with a 5.4% yield. The purified enzyme migrated as a single band on native polyacrylamide gels, and it exhibited an apparent molecular weight of 550,000 upon gel filtration. Gel electrophoresis under denaturing conditions revealed a single protein band with Mr 55,000. The purified kinase could be autophosphorylated in a Ca2+-calmodulin-dependent manner, and under optimal conditions, 6 mol of Pi was incorporated per mole of 55,000-dalton subunit. The activity of the enzyme was dependent on Ca2+, calmodulin, and ATP.Mg2+. Other ions which could partially substitute for Ca2+ in the presence of Mg2+ and saturating calmodulin concentrations were Sr2+ greater than Mn2+ greater than Zn2+ greater than Fe2+. The substrate specificity of the purified Ca2+-calmodulin-dependent protein kinase for cardiac proteins was determined by using phospholamban, troponin I, sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes, myofibrils, highly enriched sarcolemma, and mitochondria. The protein kinase could only phosphorylate phospholamban and troponin I either in their purified forms or in sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes and myofibrils, respectively. Exogenous proteins which could also be phosphorylated by the purified protein kinase were skeletal muscle glycogen synthase greater than gizzard myosin light chain greater than brain myelin basic protein greater than casein. However, phospholamban appeared to be phosphorylated with a higher rate as well as affinity than glycogen synthase.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Insulin-stimulated phosphorylation of calmodulin by rat liver insulin receptor preparations 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Insulin stimulates autophosphorylation of the beta subunit of its receptor and activates the associated tyrosine kinase. This kinase, in turn, phosphorylates a number of specific protein substrates; however, the functional and structural identity of these substrates is largely unknown. In this study, we demonstrate that insulin also stimulates the phosphorylation of calmodulin by rat hepatocyte insulin receptors partially purified by wheat germ agglutinin affinity chromatography. Phosphorylation occurred predominantly on tyrosine residues and had an absolute requirement for insulin receptors, divalent cations, and certain basic proteins. Maximal 32P incorporation was observed at an insulin concentration of 5 X 10(-9) M, and the K0.5 for insulin was approximately 4 X 10(-10) M. Phosphorylation of calmodulin was dependent upon ATP, saturating at 100 microM ATP with a K0.5 of 30 microM. Insulin-stimulated phosphorylation of calmodulin was also dependent upon Mg2+ or Mn2+, but was approximately 12-fold greater in the presence of Mg2+. Maximal phosphorylation was observed in the absence of Ca2+ and was inhibited at Ca2+:EGTA ratios greater than 0.8 (0.16 microM free Ca2+). Certain basic proteins, such as polylysine, histone Hf2b, and protamine sulfate, were necessary to observe insulin-stimulated phosphorylation of calmodulin. The relative amount of insulin-stimulated phosphorylation of calmodulin observed in the presence of each of these proteins differed. Maximal insulin-stimulated phosphorylation was observed in the presence of polylysine. These data suggest that both Ca2+ and calmodulin may participate in the early post-receptor events in the cellular mechanism of insulin action in hepatocytes. 相似文献

Microsomes isolated from cat pancreas were incubated with [gamma-32P]ATP in the presence or absence of Ca2+. Following fractionation of phosphoproteins by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis a single microsomal protein with an apparent molecular mass of 77,000 dalton (77K) was found to be phosphorylated in a Ca2+-dependent mechanism. Maximal phosphate incorporation into the 77K protein was observed at 10(-6) mol/l [Ca2+] and was 4-fold higher than in the absence of Ca2+. The 77K phosphoprotein showed characteristic of a stable phosphoester rather than an acyl phosphate. Measurable phosphate incorporation into the 77K protein was noted 5 s following addition of [gamma-32P]ATP and reached maximum at 9-10th min. The lack of effect of exogenous cyclic AMP, cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, calmodulin, the calmodulin antagonist trifluoperazine, leupeptin and the suppression of phosphorylation by some phospholipid-interacting drugs suggested that the 77K protein is a substrate for cyclic AMP- and calmodulin-independent, Ca2+-activated phospholipid-sensitive kinase activity. Centrifugation of the pancreatic homogenate in a ficoll-sucrose density gradient indicated that both the 77K protein and enzyme were associated in a fraction enriched in rough endoplasmic reticulum. 相似文献

Treatment of quiescent human embryonic lung fibroblastic cells (TIG-3) with 10 nM epidermal growth factor (EGF) resulted in 4-6-fold activation of a protein kinase activity in cell extracts that phosphorylated microtubule-associated protein 2 (MAP2) on serine and threonine residues in vitro. The half-maximal activation of the kinase activity occurred within 5 min after EGF treatment, and the maximal level was attained at 15 min. Casein and histone were very poor substrates for this EGF-stimulated MAP2 kinase activity. The activation of the kinase activity persisted after brief dialysis. Interestingly, the EGF-stimulated MAP2 kinase activity was sensitive to micromolar concentrations of free Ca2+; it was inhibited 50% by 0.5 microM Ca2+ and almost totally inhibited by 2 microM Ca2+. The activated MAP2 kinase activity was recovered in flow-through fractions on phosphocellulose column chromatography, while kinase activities that phosphorylate 40 S ribosomal protein S6 (S6 kinase activities) were mostly retained on the column and eluted at 0.5 M NaCl. Platelet-derived growth factor, fibroblast growth factor, insulin-like growth factor-I, insulin, phorbol esters (12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate and phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate), and fresh fetal calf serum also induced activation of the MAP2 kinase in the quiescent TIG-3 cells. The activated MAP2 kinase activity in cells stimulated by platelet-derived growth factor, fibroblast growth factor, insulin-like growth factor-I, insulin, 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate, phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate, or fetal calf serum was almost completely inhibited by 2 microM Ca2+, like the EGF-stimulated kinase. In addition, MAP2 phosphorylated by the kinase activated by different stimuli gave very similar phosphopeptide mapping patterns. These results suggest that several growth factors, phorbol esters, and serum activate a common, Ca2+-inhibitable protein kinase which is distinct from S6 kinase in quiescent human fibroblasts. 相似文献

Epidermal growth factor stimulates the phosphorylation of the calcium-dependent 35,000-dalton substrate in intact A-431 cells 总被引:18,自引:0,他引:18
We have previously reported the isolation of a 35-kDa protein from A-431 cells that, in the presence of Ca2+, is an excellent in vitro substrate for the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor/kinase present in membrane preparations (Fava, R. A., and Cohen, S. (1984) J. Biol. Chem. 259, 2636-2645). In this communication we demonstrate that the phosphorylation of the 35-kDa protein is markedly enhanced in intact, 32P-labeled, A-431 cells following exposure of the cells to EGF. The 35-kDa protein immunoprecipitated from cells treated with EGF is phosphorylated to a 20-120-fold greater extent than comparable preparations from control cells. Both phosphotyrosine and phosphoserine residues are detected in the protein after treatment of the cells with EGF. EGF-dependent phosphorylation of the 35-kDa protein is barely detected unless the intact cells are exposed to EGF for periods greater than 5 min. We suggest that endosomes containing internalized EGF X receptor/kinase complexes are primarily responsible for the observed phosphorylation of the 35-kDa protein in intact cells. 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

The intrinsic protein-tyrosine kinase activity of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor is required for signal transduction. Increased protein-tyrosine kinase activity is observed following the binding of EGF to the receptor. However, signaling is rapidly desensitized during EGF treatment. We report that EGF receptors isolated from desensitized cells exhibit a lower protein-tyrosine kinase activity than EGF receptors isolated from control cells. The mechanism of desensitization of kinase activity can be accounted for, in part, by the EGF-stimulated phosphorylation of the receptor at Ser1046/7, a substrate for the multifunctional calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II in vitro. Mutation of Ser1046/7 by replacement with Ala residues blocks desensitization of the EGF receptor protein-tyrosine kinase activity. Furthermore, this mutation causes a marked inhibition of the EGF-stimulated endocytosis and down-regulation of cell surface receptors. Thus, the phosphorylation site Ser1046/7 is required for EGF receptor desensitization in EGF-treated cells. This regulatory phosphorylation site is located at the carboxyl terminus of the EGF receptor within the subdomain that binds src homology 2 regions of signaling molecules. 相似文献

The increase in the intracellular concentration of Ca2+ in A431 cells induced by the calcium ionophore A23187 leads to phosphorylation of epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptors at serine and/or threonine residues. This process is accompanied by the decrease in the level of EGF receptor autophosphorylation at tyrosine residues. Preincubation of cells in a A23187-containing medium in the presence of phorbol-12-myristoyl-13-acetate leads to a further decrease of the phosphotyrosine content in EGF receptors. At increased intracellular concentrations of Ca2+ preincubation of A431 cells with the protein kinase C inhibitor H-7 has no effect on the degree of EGF receptor autophosphorylation. Down-regulation of cellular protein kinase C does not change the A23187-induced effect either. The data obtained suggest that the decreased autophosphorylation of EGF receptors induced by Ca2+ is not due to the activation of cellular protein kinase C. 相似文献

Calmodulins were isolated from vegetative mycelia of Basidiomycetes fungi, Agaricus campestris and Coprinus lagopus. These calmodulins showed similar mobilities to those of animal calmodulins on nondenaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence or absence of Ca2+. The molecular weights of both calmodulins were determined to be 16,000. Agaricus calmodulin consisted of 148 amino acids including epsilon-N-trimethyllysine and cysteine. The UV-absorption spectrum showed the relatively high content of phenylalanine in Basidiomycetes calmodulins. The difference UV-absorption spectrum due to the blue shift by Ca2+ was observed. Both calmodulins activated muscle myosin light chain kinase and pea NAD+ kinase in a Ca2+-dependent manner, and the activities were inhibited by trifluoperazine or chlorpromazine. A calmodulin-like protein was partially purified from baker's yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae. However, detection of a calmodulin-like protein in prokaryotes was not successful. 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

Okadaic acid, a potent tumor promoter and inhibitor of phosphoserine/threonine protein phosphatases 1 and 2A, produces a large increase in epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor phosphorylation in several cell types. The increases are limited to phosphoserine and phosphothreonine residues. 12-O-Tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA), a distinct tumor promoter and protein kinase C activator, also induces serine/threonine phosphorylation of the EGF receptor and is known to modulate receptor functions. Comparison of okadaic acid and TPA influences on the EGF receptor show significant differences. Okadaic acid did not promote phosphorylation of Thr-654, a major site of TPA-induced phosphorylation. However, other sites of phosphorylation were similar for the two tumor promoters. In vitro experiments with purified protein phosphatase 2A demonstrate the insensitivity of Thr-654 phosphorylation, which regulates EGF receptor function, to dephosphorylation by this okadaic acid-sensitive protein phosphatase. In contrast to TPA, okadaic acid did not attenuate the tyrosine kinase activity or ligand binding capacity of the EGF receptor. However, okadaic acid did produce a decrease in EGF-stimulated inositol phosphate formation in a manner distinct from that of TPA. 相似文献

Cells derived from the inner medullary collecting duct undergo in vitro branching tubulogenesis to both the c-met receptor ligand hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) as well as epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor ligands. In contrast, many other cultured renal epithelial cells respond in this manner only to HGF, suggesting that these two receptors may use independent signaling pathways during morphogenesis. We have therefore compared the signaling pathways for mIMCD-3 cell morphogenesis in response to EGF and HGF. Inhibition of the p42/44 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway with the mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MKK1) inhibitor PD98059 (50 microm) markedly inhibits HGF-induced cell migration with only partial inhibition of EGF-induced cell motility. Similarly, HGF-dependent, but not EGF-dependent, branching morphogenesis was more greatly inhibited by the MKK1 inhibitor. Examination of EGF-stimulated cells demonstrated that extracellular-regulated kinase 5 (ERK5) was activated in response to EGF but not HGF, and that activation of ERK5 was only 60% inhibited by 50 microm PD98059. In contrast, the MKK inhibitor U0126 markedly inhibited both ERK1/2 and ERK5 activation and completely prevented HGF- and EGF-dependent migration and branching process formation. Expression of dominant negative ERK5 (dnBMK1) likewise inhibited EGF-dependent branching process formation, but did not affect HGF-dependent branching process formation. Our results indicate that activation of the ERK1/ERK2 signaling pathway is critical for HGF-induced cell motility/morphogenesis in mIMCD-3 cells, whereas ERK5 appears to be required for EGF-dependent morphogenesis. 相似文献
