Exposure of dexamethasone-treated cells of the mT-1 line of F111 rat cells bearing a dexamethasone-inducible polyoma virus middle T (mT) antigen gene to very low concentrations of the protein kinase C-stimulating phorbol ester TPA increased the association of mT antigen with the cellular pp60c-src tyrosine protein kinase, as indicated by an increased phosphorylation of tyrosine residues of mT in mT:pp60c-src complexes precipitated from extracts of the TPA-treated cells by anti-mT antibodies. This TPA (hence probably protein kinase C)-enhanced association of mT with pp60c-src was accompanied by a large increase in the transforming ability of mT as indicated by a much enhanced ability of TPA-treated mT-1 cells producing submaximal levels of mT to proliferate while suspended in semi-solid medium and to form foci on confluent monolayers of normal F111 cells.

We introduced two mutations into the carboxy-terminal regulatory region of chicken pp60c-src. One, F527, replaces tyrosine 527 with phenylalanine. The other, Am517, produces a truncated pp60c-src protein lacking the 17 carboxy-terminal amino acids. Both mutant proteins were phosphorylated at tyrosine 416 in vivo. The specific activity of the Am517 mutant protein kinase was similar to that of wild-type pp60c-src whereas that of the F527 mutant was 5- to 10-fold higher. Both mutant c-src genes induced focus formation on NIH 3T3 cells, but the foci appeared at lower frequency, and were smaller than foci induced by polyoma middle tumor antigen (mT). The wild-type or F527 pp60c-src formed a complex with mT, whereas the Am517 pp60c-src did not. The results suggest that one, inability to phosphorylate tyrosine 527 increases pp60c-src protein kinase activity and transforming ability; two, transformation by mT involves other events besides lack of phosphorylation at tyrosine 527 of pp60c-src; three, activation of the pp60c-src protein kinase may not be required for transformation by the Am517 mutant; and four, the carboxyl terminus of pp60c-src appears to be required for association with mT.  相似文献

The polyoma middle tumor antigen (MTAg) associates with the src proto-oncogene product pp60c-src in infected or transformed rodent cells. The tyrosine protein kinase activity of pp60c-src, as measured by in vitro phosphorylation of pp60c-src itself or the exogenous substrate enolase, was increased 10- to 20-fold in cells transformed or infected with transformation-competent polyoma virus compared with controls. pp60c-src associated with MTAg and precipitated with polyoma antitumor serum had a novel site(s) of in vitro tyrosine phosphorylation within its amino-terminal domain. These observations suggest that association of MTAg with pp60c-src alters the accessibility of pp60c-src tyrosine residues for phosphorylation in vitro and increases pp60c-src protein kinase activity. Several transformation-defective mutants of MTAg did not cause amino-terminal tyrosine phosphorylation of pp60c-src in vitro or enhance its protein kinase activity, suggesting that these properties correlate with the transforming ability of MTAg. However, one transformation-defective MTAg mutant, dl1015, did cause amino-terminal tyrosine phosphorylation of pp60c-src in vitro and did enhance its protein kinase activity. This suggests that properties of MTAg, in addition to modifying the structure and function of pp60c-src, may be important for transformation.  相似文献

Reconstitution of the polyoma virus middle T antigen (mT)-pp60-src complex and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PtdIns 3-kinase) has been accomplished in vitro with immunopurified baculovirus-expressed mT-pp60c-src and PtdIns 3-kinase purified from rat liver. Both the 110- and 85-kDa subunits of the PtdIns 3-kinase associated with the mT-pp60c-src complex. The association of PtdIns 3-kinase with the mT-pp60c-src complex was dependent on the protein-tyrosine kinase activity of pp60c-src as a kinase-inactive mutant (pp60(295c-src)) still complexed with mT, but the mT-pp60(295c-src)) complex was unable to bind PtdIns 3-kinase. The mT-pp60c-src complex phosphorylated both subunits of PtdIns 3-kinase on tyrosine residues. The immunopurified mT-pp60c-src complex also associated with PtdIns 3-kinase activity from whole cell lysates, and this association was dependent upon the protein-tyrosine kinase activity of pp60c-src. Comparison of 35S-labeled proteins from whole cell lysates which associated with immunopurified mT-pp60c-src and mT-pp60(295c-src) revealed proteins of 110 and 85 kDa as the major peptides dependent on protein-tyrosine kinase activity for association with the complex. In addition, a synthetic phosphopeptide (13-mer) containing sequences conserved between the major tyrosine phosphorylation site of murine polyoma virus mT, hamster polyoma virus mT, and the insulin receptor substrate (IRS-1) specifically blocked the association of the 85- and 110-kDa polypeptides with the mT-pp60c-src complex. The ability to block the association was dependent on the tyrosine phosphorylation of the peptide. Association of PtdIns 3-kinase activity was blocked concurrently. This is the first demonstration that the 110-kDa subunit of PtdIns 3-kinase can associate with mT-pp60c-src. This association in vitro is a step toward understanding protein-protein interactions important in the signal transduction pathway of oncogenic proteins.  相似文献

Substitution of phenylalanine for tyrosine 315 of the polyoma virus middle T (mT) protein lowers the incidence and limits the spectrum of tumors induced following inoculation of the virus into newborn mice. This substitution removes the major site of phosphorylation by pp60c-src without altering the ability of mT to associate with or to activate pp60c-src. The mutant mT fails to show binding of a phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (Ptdlns 3-kinase) activity that is normally present in wild-type mT complexes. Furthermore, an anti-peptide antiserum that specifically recognizes mT lacking phosphate at tyrosine 315 precipitates binary (mT-pp60c-src) but not ternary (mT-pp60c-src-Ptdlns 3-kinase) complexes from wild-type infected cell extracts. Reprecipitation with either anti-pp60c-src or anti-mT serum brings down ternary complexes containing mT phosphorylated on tyrosine 315. Phosphorylation of mT by pp60c-src in vivo is therefore a critical event for binding of Ptdlns 3-kinase and for expression of the full tumorigenic potential of the virus.  相似文献

The transforming protein of polyoma virus, middle T antigen, associates with the protein tyrosine kinase pp60c-src, and analysis of mutants of middle T suggests that this complex plays an important role in transformation by polyoma. It has recently been reported that pp60c-src from polyoma virus-transformed cells has enhanced tyrosine kinase activity in vitro. The data presented here confirm these findings and show that the enhanced kinase activity of pp60c-src is due to an increase in the Vmax of the enzyme. Sucrose density gradient analysis demonstrates that only the form of pp60c-src which is bound to middle T antigen is activated. The difference in enzyme activity between pp60c-src from normal and middle T-transformed cells is more marked when the enzyme is prepared from lysates containing the phosphotyrosine protein phosphatase inhibitor, sodium orthovanadate. pp60c-src from middle T transformed cells is unaffected, but pp60c-src from normal cells has reduced kinase activity if dephosphorylation is prevented. The kinase activity of pp60c-src thus appears to be regulated by its degree of phosphorylation at tyrosine, and data are presented which support this hypothesis. pp60c-src is the first example of a protein tyrosine kinase whose activity is inhibited by phosphorylation at tyrosine. Middle T antigen may increase the kinase activity of pp60c-src by preventing phosphorylation at this regulatory site.  相似文献

We characterized the tyrosine phosphorylation sites of free pp60c-src and of pp60c-src associated with the polyomavirus middle tumor antigen (mT) in transformed avian and rodent cells. The sites of tyrosine phosphorylation in the two populations of pp60c-src were different, both in vitro and in vivo. Free pp60c-src was phosphorylated in vitro at a single site, tyrosine 416. pp60c-src associated with mT was phosphorylated in vitro on tyrosine 416 and on one or more additional tyrosine residues located in the amino-terminal region of the molecule. Free pp60c-src in polyomavirus mT-transformed cells was phosphorylated in vivo on tyrosine 527. In contrast, pp60c-src associated with mT was phosphorylated in vivo on tyrosine 416 and not detectably on tyrosine 527. Thus, the in vivo phosphorylation sites of pp60c-src associated with mT in transformed cells are identical to those of pp60v-src, the Rous sarcoma virus transforming protein. The results suggest that altered phosphorylation of pp60c-src associated with mT may play a role in the enhancement of the pp60c-src protein kinase activity and in cell transformation by polyomavirus.  相似文献

Phosphoinositide kinase activity and transformation   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
We have used the DNA tumor virus polyoma as a model system to examine whether the phosphatidylinositol (PI) turnover pathway is a critical target for transforming gene products. Polyoma-infected cells show elevated levels of polyphosphoinositides and polyphosphoinositols, and a PI kinase activity is associated with middle T antigen, a transforming gene product of polyoma virus. In anti-T immunoprecipitates from polyoma-infected or -transformed cells, comparisons of wild-type and polyoma mutants defective for transformation show a strong correlation between middle T-associated PI kinase activity and transforming ability. Middle T has previously been found to associate at the plasma membrane with pp60 c-src and to activate it as a tyrosine kinase. c-src itself does not appear to phosphorylate PI; however, the middle T/pp60 c-src tyrosine kinase activity may be important for activation of PI kinase. Ammonium orthovanadate, a tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor, elevates the middle T/pp60 c-src-associated PI kinase activity. We propose that middle T/pp60 c-src activates a PI kinase and modulates PI turnover in vivo by tyrosine phosphorylation.  相似文献

Expression of antisense c-src RNAs in rat and mouse fibroblasts had a dramatic effect on the function of polyoma virus middle T (mT). Antisense c-src RNA decreased the amount of mT:pp60c-src complexes in de novo virus-infected cells and prevented expression of the transformed phenotype in rat F111 cells. Expression of antisense c-src RNA in infected NIH3T3 cells also reduced the formation of mT:pp60c-src complexes but did not affect the ability of polyoma virus to carry out a productive infection. Further analysis of the effects of antisense c-src RNA in uninfected cells revealed that pp60c-src is required for cell growth. When pp60c-src synthesis was reduced, F111 cells stopped proliferating and showed decreased S6 phosphorylation in response to serum. However, F111 cells expressing reduced pp60c-src could be efficiently transformed by v-rasHa, even in the presence of low serum. Thus, pp60c-src appears to function as a component of a signal transduction pathway which regulates cell proliferation in response to serum.  相似文献

We have studied phosphorylation carried out by purified plasma membranes from polyoma virus-infected cells. When isolated membranes are incubated with [gamma-32P]ATP, polyoma virus middle T antigen (mT) becomes phosphorylated on tyrosine. Partial proteolysis mapping shows the same pattern as previously noted for mT labeled in immune complexes. Membranes labeled in vitro were also extracted and immunoprecipitated with anti-T or anti-src antibody. With either antibody, both mT and pp60c-src were brought down and shown to be labeled on tyrosine. The mT of an hr-t mutant (NG59) showed only a trace amount of labeling in membranes under the same conditions. Proteins from infected and uninfected cell membranes labeled in vitro were separated on two-dimensional gels. An acidic 40-kd phosphoprotein was labeled in uninfected cell membranes, but was not seen using membranes from wild-type virus-infected cells. Neither NG59, which encodes a defective but membrane-associated mT, nor a mutant encoding a truncated mT that fails to associate with membranes, alters the level of the 40-kd phosphoprotein in membranes labeled in vitro. These results suggest that mT, acting through pp60c-src and possibly other cellular kinases and phosphatases, can affect cell protein phosphorylation as part of the transformation process.  相似文献

The transforming activity of polyoma virus middle-T antigen is believed to be dependent on its ability to form a complex with the cellular tyrosine protein kinase, pp60c-src. This hypothesis is based on observations of mutants of middle-T which demonstrated a correlation between these two activities. To investigate further the significance of pp60c-src association in transformation by middle-T, a series of deletion and point mutants were constructed around the NG59 lesion since this region has been implicated in pp60c-src binding. Analysis of the middle-T variants revealed a complete correlation between the presence of associated activated pp60c-src and the ability to transform. Further, this ability of pp60c-src to associate with middle-T may depend on the presence of a beta-turn between amino acids 177 and 180. The results indicate the NG59 phenotype results from the introduction of an isoleucine residue between amino acids 177 and 178 rather than the transition mutation at 179. The mutant MG1 is a single point mutation (at residue 180) and represents the smallest change in the middle-T which abolishes both the transformating and kinase activity of middle-T. Taken together, the data suggest the region surrounding the NG59 lesion is involved in the formation of an active complex between middle-T and pp60c-src and strongly suggest that this association is an absolute requirement for polyoma virus-induced transformation.  相似文献

The transforming protein of polyomavirus, middle T (mT), forms a complex with two cellular enzymes: the protein tyrosine kinase pp60c-src and a phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) 3-kinase. A mutant virus, Py1178T, encodes an mT protein which associates with and activates pp60c-src to the same extent as the wild type but fails to associate with PtdIns 3-kinase. To investigate relationships between activation of pp60c-src, association of PtdIns 3-kinase, and cellular levels of the second messenger inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3), we examined the effects of wild-type and mutant mT proteins on inositol metabolism in rat and mouse fibroblasts. Expression of either wild-type or 1178T mT caused a 300 to 500% increase in the InsP3 level. Cells transformed by Rous sarcoma virus also showed similar increases in InsP3 levels. Mutant mT proteins which failed to activate pp60c-src (NG59 and 1387T) had no effect on InsP3 levels. Pulse-chase experiments with [3H]inositol showed that the turnover of phosphoinositides was increased in cells transformed by either wild-type polyomavirus or Py1178T as compared with the normal parent cell line. The turnover of inositol phosphates was unchanged upon transformation. These data indicate that cells expressing either wild-type or mutant 1178T mT or pp60v-src exhibit elevated levels of InsP3 because of activation of phospholipase C. This activation appears to depend, directly or indirectly, upon activation of pp60src protein kinase activity. Activation of pp60c-src and elevation of InsP3 content are not sufficient for full transformation. Full transformation also requires the association of mT-pp60c-src complexes with PtdIns 3-kinase.  相似文献

The 58,000-Mr form (58K form) of the polyomavirus middle T antigen (mT) is a minor species distinguished by its phosphorylation in vivo on serine and by its efficient phosphorylation on tyrosine in immune complexes (B.S. Schaffhausen and T.L. Benjamin, J. Virol. 40:184-196, 1981). Here we report that the tumor promoter 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA), an activator of protein kinase C, rapidly stimulates phosphorylation of this mT species when added to cultures of wild-type polyomavirus-infected or polyomavirus-transformed 3T3 cells. Incubation with TPA leads to an accumulation of the 58K mT species to levels 1.5- to 5-fold higher than that in untreated cells within 15 min. TPA specifically stimulates phosphorylation of the 58K mT species without affecting that of the 56K species. Mapping by partial proteolysis shows that TPA-stimulated phosphorylation occurs at or near the site in 58K mT that is normally phosphorylated in the absence of TPA. A synthetic diacyl glycerol, 1-oleoyl-2-acetyl-glycerol, also specifically stimulates phosphorylation of 58K mT in vivo, while an inactive phorbol analog does not. TPA fails to induce phosphorylation of a 58K mT species encoded by certain nontransforming virus mutants with altered mT proteins that normally fail to undergo phosphorylation at the 58K site. These results indicate that the 58K form of mT is phosphorylated by or through the action of protein kinase C. TPA treatment of infected cells also leads to increased levels of 58K mT as measured in the immune complex kinase reaction, in which mT becomes phosphorylated on tyrosine by pp60c-src. These results are discussed in terms of a possible role for protein kinase C in activating mT function(s), including the formation of stable complexes with pp60c-src.  相似文献

Lipocortin I is a 39-kilodalton membrane-associated protein that in A431 cells is phosphorylated on tyrosine in response to epidermal growth factor (EGF). We have used recombinant human lipocortin I as a substrate for several protein kinases and identified phosphorylated residues by a combination of peptide mapping and sequence analysis. Lipocortin I was phosphorylated near the amino terminus at Tyr-21 by recombinant pp60c-src. The same tyrosine residue was phosphorylated by polyoma middle T/pp60c-src complex, by recombinant pp50v-abl, and with A431 cell membranes by the EGF receptor/kinase. The primary site of phosphorylation by protein kinase C was also near the amino terminus at Ser-27. The major site of phosphorylation by adenosine cyclic 3',5'-phosphate dependent protein kinase was on the carboxy-terminal half of the molecule at Thr-216. These sites are compared to the phosphorylation sites previously located in the structurally related protein lipocortin II.  相似文献

The role of tyrosine phosphorylation in the regulation of tyrosine protein kinase activity was investigated using site-directed mutagenesis to alter the structure and environment of the three tyrosine residues present in the C terminus of avian pp60c-src. Mutations that change Tyr 527 to Phe or Ser activate in vivo tyrosine protein kinase activity and induce cellular transformation of chicken cells in culture. In contrast, alterations of tyrosine residues present at positions 511 or 519 in c-src do not induce transformation or in vivo tyrosine protein kinase activity. Amber mutations, which alter the structure of the pp60c-src C terminus by inducing premature termination of the c-src protein at either residue 518 or 523 also induce morphological transformation and increase in vivo tyrosine phosphorylation, whereas removal of the last four residues of c-src by chain termination at residue 530 does not alter the kinase activity or the biological activity of the resultant c-src protein. We conclude from these studies that C-terminal alterations which either remove or replace Tyr 527 serve to activate the c-src protein resulting in cellular transformation and increased in vivo tyrosine protein kinase activity.  相似文献

We have examined the effect of polyoma virus infection of primary mouse embryo cells on the tyrosyl kinase activity associated with the cellular src gene product, pp60c-src. The results of our studies demonstrate that infection of mouse cells with wild-type polyoma virus or viral mutants capable of transforming rodent cells in culture and inducing tumors in animals results in the stimulation of pp60c-src tyrosyl kinase activity. The level of pp60c-src kinase stimulation in infected cells was found to be proportional to both the oncogenic potential of the virus strain used for infection and the characteristic phenotype of rodent cells transformed by the various strains of polyoma virus. Stimulation of pp60c-src kinase activity was not observed in mouse cells infected with transformation-defective strains of polyoma virus. In examining the kinetics of pp60c-src kinase stimulation in mouse cells at various times following wild-type polyoma virus infection, we found that the level of pp60c-src kinase activity correlated directly with the synthesis of polyoma virus-encoded tumor antigens. By comparing wild-type polyoma virus with other viral mutants in these experiments, we conclude that the stimulation of pp60c-src kinase activity in mouse cells following polyoma virus infection is associated with the synthesis of middle tumor antigen.  相似文献

The complex of polyoma virus middle-T antigen and pp60c-src.   总被引:44,自引:7,他引:37       下载免费PDF全文
We have recently proposed that the transforming protein of polyoma virus, middle-T antigen, forms a complex with pp60c-src. Here we provide additional evidence for the existence of the complex using both monoclonal antibodies specific for middle-T and antibodies raised against synthetic peptides corresponding to sequences from both middle-T and pp60c-src. The complex was retained during partial purification of middle-T and was stable to incubation under various conditions. A survey of a number of mutants of middle-T antigen showed that there was a complete correlation between the ability of middle-T to accept phosphate in the in vitro kinase reaction and the presence of a middle-T: pp60c-src complex. This result is in accord with our hypothesis that middle-T itself is not a protein kinase but rather that pp60c-src phosphorylates middle-T. All mutant forms of middle-T antigen capable of transformation had associated pp60c-src. The middle-T of two non-transforming mutants (hr-t mutants) did not have associated pp60c-src, whereas other non-transforming middle-T species did associate with pp60c-src. We propose that the complex plays an essential role in transformation by polyoma virus, but that the existence of the complex per se may not be sufficient.  相似文献

Phosphorylation at tyrosine 527 of the proto-oncogene product, pp60c-src, has been proposed to decrease the tyrosine kinase activity of the enzyme. We have investigated potential factors that might influence phosphorylation at this site by making mutant variants of the pp60c-src protein. By effectively eliminating the site of N-terminal myristylation, we demonstrated that stable membrane association is not necessary for tyrosine 527 phosphorylation. Furthermore, mutational elimination of the enzymatic activity of this mutant pp60c-src protein did not alter the efficiency of phosphorylation at tyrosine 527. These data are consistent with the proposal that pp60c-src may be phosphorylated at tyrosine 527 by a cellular tyrosine kinase distinct from pp60c-src. In addition, using detergent-permeabilized cells, we established conditions that allow efficient phosphorylation of tyrosine 527 in vitro.  相似文献

We have observed increased phosphorylation of tyrosine residues on the polyoma virus middle tumor antigen (MTAg) in in vitro kinase assays of the immune complexes immunoprecipitated from lysates of polyoma virus-infected mouse embryo cells to which increasing amounts of uninfected mouse embryo cell lysate had been added. The components from uninfected mouse cells responsible for increased MTAg phosphorylation were localized by subcellular fractionation to the plasma membrane and found to be sensitive to protease digestion, N-ethylmaleimide, and 5'-p-fluorosulfonylbenzoyladenosine inactivation. The majority of the membrane-associated activity responsible for the increased MTAg phosphorylation in these assays could be cleared from lysates of uninfected mouse cell lysates by centrifugation after reaction with Sepharose-bound monoclonal antibodies which recognize pp60c-src. These results suggest that MTAg can associate with cellular tyrosyl kinases in vitro and be phosphorylated by these enzymes in immune-complex kinase assays. The identity of at least one of these cellular tryosyl kinases which can associate with MTAg in vitro is likely to be pp60c-src.  相似文献

fyn is a member of the growing family of protein tyrosine kinase genes whose sequences are highly related to that of c-src. We have generated antibodies to peptides corresponding to two different amino-terminal sequences encoded by this gene. Antisera to both peptides recognized a 59 kd protein from human and mouse fibroblasts. p59fyn was phosphorylated in vivo on serine and tyrosine residues and was also myristylated. Furthermore, immune precipitates of p59fyn had tyrosine kinase activity in vitro, as measured by autophosphorylation and by phosphorylation of substrates such as enolase. This kinase activity was shown to be negatively regulated by tyrosine phosphorylation. We have also established that, like pp60c-src and p62c-yes, p59fyn was complexed with middle T antigen, the transforming protein of polyoma virus. However, the tyrosine kinase activity of p59fyn was not elevated in middle T transformed cells. Possible explanations for this are discussed.  相似文献
