In B cells, two classes of protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs), the Src family of PTKs (Lyn, Fyn, Lck, and Blk) and non-Src family of PTKs (Syk), are known to be involved in signal transduction induced by the stimulation of the B-cell antigen receptor (BCR). Previous studies using Lyn-negative chicken B-cell clones revealed that Lyn is necessary for transduction of signals through the BCR. The kinase activity of the Src family of PTKs is negatively regulated by phosphorylation at the C-terminal tyrosine residue, and the PTK Csk has been demonstrated to phosphorylate this C-terminal residue of the Src family of PTKs. To investigate the role of Csk in BCR signaling, Csk-negative chicken B-cell clones were generated. In these Csk-negative cells, Lyn became constitutively active and highly phosphorylated at the autophosphorylation site, indicating that Csk is necessary to sustain Lyn in an inactive state. Since the C-terminal tyrosine phosphorylation of Lyn is barely detectable in the unstimulated, wild-type B cells, our data suggest that the activities of Csk and a certain protein tyrosine phosphatase(s) are balanced to maintain Lyn at a hypophosphorylated and inactive state. Moreover, we show that the kinase activity of Syk was also constitutively activated in Csk-negative cells. The degree of activation of both the Lyn and Syk kinases in Csk-negative cells was comparable to that observed in wild-type cells after BCR stimulation. However, BCR stimulation was still necessary in Csk-negative cells to elicit tyrosine phosphorylation of cellular proteins, as well as calcium mobilization and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate generation. These results suggest that not only activation of the Lyn and Syk kinases but also additional signals induced by the cross-linking of the BCR are required for full transduction of BCR signaling. 相似文献

Using glutathione S-transferase Syk fusion proteins, we evaluated the mode of platelet FcgammaRII tyrosine phosphorylation induced by FcgammaRII cross-linking or anti-CD9 monoclonal antibodies (mAb). The N-terminal SH2 domain of Syk (Syk-N-SH2), the C-terminal SH2 domain of Syk (Syk-C-SH2), and the domain having both the N- and C-terminal SH2 of Syk (Syk-NC-SH2) all bound to tyrosine-phosphorylated FcgammaRII with FcgammaRII cross-linking. In the case of anti-CD9 mAb-induced platelet activation, only Syk-C-SH2 and Syk-NC-SH2 bound to tyrosine-phosphorylated FcgammaRII. Since the SH2 domain is specific for a particular structure containing phosphotyrosine, these findings suggest that only one tyrosine residue in the immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM) is phosphorylated with anti-CD9 mAb, and that both are phosphorylated with FcgammaRII cross-linking. Synthetic peptides corresponding to the ITAM of human platelet FcgammaRII with the N-terminal tyrosine residue phosphorylated (N-P) or the C-terminal tyrosine residue phosphorylated (C-P), were used. N-P more potently dissociated Syk-C-SH2 from tyrosine-phosphorylated FcgammaRII than C-P, suggesting that the N-terminal tyrosine residue is phosphorylated upon anti-CD9 mAb-induced activation. Furthermore, these findings imply that Syk-N-SH2 binds to the phosphorylated C-terminal tyrosine residue of ITAM, and Syk-C-SH2 to the N-terminal tyrosine. Taken together, our findings suggest that FcgammaRII-dependent platelet activation without FcgammaRII dimerization, such as with anti-CD9 mAb, is distinct from that induced by FcgammaRII cross-linking. 相似文献

Latent membrane protein 2A (LMP2A) of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is expressed on the plasma membrane of B lymphocytes latently infected with EBV and blocks B-cell receptor (BCR) signal transduction in EBV-immortalized B cells in vitro. The LMP2A amino-terminal domain that is essential for the LMP2A-mediated block on BCR signal transduction contains eight tyrosine residues. Association of Syk protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) with LMP2A occurs at the two tyrosines of the LMP2A immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif, and it is hypothesized that Lyn PTK associates with the YEEA amino acid motif at LMP2A tyrosine 112 (Y112). To examine the specific association of Lyn PTK to LMP2A, a panel of LMP2A cDNA expression vectors containing LMP2A mutations were transfected into an EBV-negative B-cell line and analyzed for Lyn and LMP2A coimmunoprecipitation. Lyn associates with wild-type LMP2A and other LMP2A mutant constructs, but Lyn association is lost in the LMP2A construct containing a tyrosine (Y)-to-phenylalanine (F) mutation at LMP2A residue Y112 (LMP2AY112F). Next, the LMP2AY112F mutation was recombined into the EBV genome to generate stable lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs) transformed with the LMP2AY112F mutant virus. Analysis of BCR-mediated signal transduction in the LMP2AY112F LCLs revealed loss of the LMP2A-mediated block in BCR signal transduction. In addition, LMP2A was not tyrosine phosphorylated in LMP2AY112F LCLs. Together these data indicate the importance of the LMP2A Y112 residue in the ability of LMP2A to block BCR-mediated signal transduction and place the role of this residue and its interaction with Lyn PTK as essential to LMP2A phosphorylation, PTK loading, and down-modulation of PTKs involved in BCR-mediated signal transduction. 相似文献

Engagement of the B-cell antigen receptor complex induces immediate activation of receptor-associated Src family tyrosine kinases including p55blk, p59fyn, p53/56lyn, and perhaps p56lck, and this response is accompanied by tyrosine phosphorylation of distinct cellular substrates. These kinases act directly or indirectly to phosphorylate and/or activate effector proteins including p42 (microtubule-associated protein kinase) (MAPK), phospholipases C-gamma 1 (PLC gamma 1) and C-gamma 2 (PLC gamma 2), phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-K), and p21ras-GTPase-activating protein (GAP). Although coimmunoprecipitation results indicate that the Src family protein tyrosine kinases interact physically with some of these effector molecules, the molecular basis of this interaction has not been established. Here, we show that three distinct sites mediate the interaction of these kinases with effectors. The amino-terminal 27 residues of the unique domain of p56lyn mediate association with PLC gamma 2, MAPK, and GAP. Binding to PI 3-K is mediated through the Src homology 3 (SH3) domains of the Src family kinases. Relatively small proportions of cellular PI 3-K, PLC gamma 2, MAPK, and GAP, presumably those which are tyrosine phosphorylated, bind to the SH2 domains of these kinases. Comparative analysis of binding activities of Blk, Lyn, and Fyn shows that these kinases differ in their abilities to associate with MAPK and PI 3-K, suggesting that they may preferentially bind and subsequently phosphorylate distinct sets of downstream effector molecules in vivo. Fast protein liquid chromatography Mono Q column-fractionated MAPK maintains the ability to bind bacterially expressed Lyn, suggesting that the two kinases may interact directly. 相似文献

Antigen receptor ligation on lymphocytes activates protein tyrosine kinases and phospholipase C-gamma (PLC-gamma) isoforms. Glutathione S-transferase fusion proteins containing the C-terminal Src-homology 2 [SH2(C)] domain of PLC-gamma1 bound to tyrosyl phosphorylated Syk. Syk isolated from antigen receptor-activated B cells phosphorylated PLC-gamma1 on Tyr-771 and the key regulatory residue Tyr-783 in vitro, whereas Lyn from the same B cells phosphorylated PLC-gamma1 only on Tyr-771. The ability of Syk to phosphorylate PLC-gamma1 required antigen receptor ligation, while Lyn was constitutively active. An mCD8-Syk cDNA construct could be expressed as a tyrosyl-phosphorylated chimeric protein tyrosine kinase in COS cells, was recognized by PLC-gamma1 SH2(C) in vitro, and induced tyrosyl phosphorylation of endogenous PLC-gamma1 in vivo. Substitution of Tyr-525 and Tyr-526 at the autophosphorylation site of Syk in mCD8-Syk substantially reduced the kinase activity and the binding of this variant chimera to PLC-gamma1 SH2(C) in vitro; it also failed to induce tyrosyl phosphorylation of PLC-gamma1 in vivo. In contrast, substitution of Tyr-348 and Tyr-352 in the linker region of Syk in mCD8-Syk did not affect the kinase activity of this variant chimera but almost completely eliminated its binding to PLC-gamma1 SH(C) and completely eliminated its ability to induce tyrosyl phosphorylation of PLC-gamma1 in vivo. Thus, an optimal kinase activity of Syk and an interaction between the linker region of Syk with PLC-gamma1 are required for the tyrosyl phosphorylation of PLC-gamma1. 相似文献

In Epstein-Barr virus-transformed B cells, known as lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs), LMP2A binds the tyrosine kinases Syk and Lyn, blocking B-cell receptor (BCR) signaling and viral lytic replication. SH2 domains in Syk mediate binding to a phosphorylated immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM) in LMP2A. Mutation of the LMP2A ITAM in LCLs eliminates Syk binding and allows for full BCR signaling, thereby delineating the significance of the LMP2A-Syk interaction. In transgenic mice, LMP2A causes a developmental alteration characterized by a block in surface immunoglobulin rearrangement resulting in BCR-negative B cells. Normally B cells lacking cognate BCR are rapidly apoptosed; however, LMP2A transgenic B cells develop and survive without a BCR. When bred into the recombinase activating gene 1 null (RAG(-/-)) background, all LMP2A transgenic lines produce BCR-negative B cells that develop and survive in the periphery. These data indicate that LMP2A imparts developmental and survival signals to B cells in vivo. In this study, LMP2A ITAM mutant transgenic mice were generated to investigate whether the LMP2A ITAM is essential for the survival phenotype in vivo. LMP2A ITAM mutant B cells develop normally, although transgene expression is comparable to that in previously described nonmutated LMP2A transgenic B cells. Additionally, LMP2A ITAM mutant mice are unable to promote B-cell development or survival when bred into the RAG(-/-) background or when grown in methylcellulose containing interleukin-7. These data demonstrate that the LMP2A ITAM is required for LMP2A-mediated developmental and survival signals in vivo. 相似文献

N-Myristoyltransferase (NMT) is an essential eukaryotic enzyme that catalyzes the cotranslational and/or posttranslational transfer of myristate to the amino terminal glycine residue of a number of important proteins especially the non-receptor tyrosine kinases whose activity is important for tumorigenesis. Human NMT was found to be phosphorylated by non-receptor tyrosine kinase family members of Lyn, Fyn and Lck and dephosphorylated by the Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent protein phosphatase, calcineurin. Deletion of 149 amino acids from the N-terminal end resulted in the absence of phosphorylation suggesting that the phosphorylation sites are located in the N-terminal end of NMT. Furthermore, a site-directed mutagenesis study indicated that substitution of tyrosine 100 with phenylalanine served NMT as a poor substrate for the Lyn kinase. A synthetic peptide corresponding to the amino-terminal region encompassing tyrosine 100 of NMT served as a good substrate for the Lyn and Fyn kinases. Our studies also indicated that NMT was found to interact with Lyn through its N-terminal end in a phosphorylation-dependent manner. This is the first study demonstrating the cross-talk between NMT and their myristoylated protein substrates in signaling pathways. 相似文献

Stimulation of B lymphocytes through their antigen receptor (BCR) results in rapid increases in tyrosine phosphorylation on a number of proteins and induces both an increase of phosphatidylinositol and mobilization of cytoplasmic free calcium. The BCR associates with two classes of tyrosine kinase: Src-family kinase (Lyn, Fyn, Blk or Lck) and Syk kinase. To dissect the functional roles of these two types of kinase in BCR signaling, lyn-negative and syk-negative B cell lines were established. Syk-deficient B cells abolished the tyrosine phosphorylation of phospholipase C-gamma 2, resulting in the loss of both inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) generation and calcium mobilization upon receptor stimulation. Crosslinking of BCR on Lyn-deficient cells evoked a delayed and slow Ca2+ mobilization, despite the normal kinetics of IP3 turnover. These results demonstrate that Syk mediates IP3 generation, whereas Lyn regulates Ca2+ mobilization through a process independent of IP3 generation. 相似文献

Human monocytes/macrophages express three classes of receptors for IgG: FcgammaRI, FcgammaRII, and FcgammaRIII. The expression and function of these receptors has been extensively studied with the exception of one, FcgammaRIIb. While the mRNA for FcgammaRIIb has been detected in human monocytes, the protein has remained elusive. Studies in mouse models indicated that the macrophage FcgammaRIIb serves to down-regulate FcgammaR-mediated phagocytosis and immune complex-induced inflammation. FcgammaRIIb has also been shown to modulate the action of cytotoxic antibodies against tumors in mouse models. Hence, an understanding of how FcgammaRIIb expression is regulated is of great importance. Here we demonstrate for the first time FcgammaRIIb protein expression and function in human monocytes. We also report that the expression of FcgammaRIIb is highly up-regulated by interleukin-4, a Th2 cytokine, and that the up-regulation of FcgammaRIIb results in a decrease in the phagocytic efficiency of interleukin-4-treated THP-1 cells. Furthermore co-clustering FcgammaRIIb with FcgammaRIIa resulted in enhanced phosphorylation of the inositol phosphatase SHIP, association of SHIP with Shc, and phosphorylation of additional proteins around 120 and 60-65 kDa, with a concomitant attenuation of Akt activation. We, therefore, propose that FcgammaRIIb serves to inhibit FcgammaRI/IIa-mediated macrophage activation using SHIP as its effector. 相似文献

Fyn is a member of the Src-family protein tyrosine kinases and plays important roles in both neurons and oligodendrocytes. Here we report association of Fyn with p250GAP, a RhoGAP protein that is expressed predominantly in brain. p250GAP interacts with Fyn both in vitro and in vivo. p250GAP is tyrosine phosphorylated by Fyn when co-expressed in HEK293T cells. This phosphorylation appears to enhance the interaction between p250GAP and Fyn. Furthermore, the level of tyrosine phosphorylation of p250GAP increases upon differentiation of the oligodendrocyte cell line CG4. Given that Fyn activity is up-regulated during oligodendrocyte maturation, the results argue that p250GAP is phosphorylated by Fyn in oligodendrocytes. Tyrosine phosphorylation of p250GAP by Fyn would regulate its RhoGAP activity, subcellular localization, or interactions with other proteins, leading to morphological and phenotypic changes of oligodendrocytes. 相似文献

Engagement of high-affinity immunoglobulin E receptors (FcεRI) activates two signaling pathways in mast cells. The Lyn pathway leads to recruitment of Syk and to calcium mobilization whereas the Fyn pathway leads to phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase recruitment. Mapping the connections between both pathways remains an important task to be completed. We previously reported that Phospholipid Scramblase 1 (PLSCR1) is phosphorylated on tyrosine after cross-linking FcεRI on RBL-2H3 rat mast cells, amplifies mast cell degranulation, and is associated with both Lyn and Syk tyrosine kinases. Here, analysis of the pathway leading to PLSCR1 tyrosine phosphorylation reveals that it depends on the FcRγ chain. FcεRI aggregation in Fyn-deficient mouse bone marrow-derived mast cells (BMMC) induced a more robust increase in FcεRI-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation of PLSCR1 compared to wild-type cells, whereas PLSCR1 phosphorylation was abolished in Lyn-deficient BMMC. Lyn association with PLSCR1 was not altered in Fyn-deficient BMMC. PLSCR1 phosphorylation was also dependent on the kinase Syk and significantly, but partially, dependent on detectable calcium mobilization. Thus, the Lyn/Syk/calcium axis promotes PLSCR1 phosphorylation in multiple ways. Conversely, the Fyn-dependent pathway negatively regulates it. This study reveals a complex regulation for PLSCR1 tyrosine phosphorylation in FcεRI-activated mast cells and that PLSCR1 sits at a crossroads between Lyn and Fyn pathways. 相似文献

Low concentrations of anti-Ig dextran conjugates that stimulate very high levels of B cell proliferation and Ig secretion stimulate no detectable increases in tyrosine phosphorylation. To study this point further, we compared tyrosine phosphorylation patterns induced by mitogenic and nonmitogenic anti-Ig antibodies. Whereas the mitogenic, strongly cross-linking, antibody H delta a/1 induced greater levels of tyrosine phosphorylation than did the nonmitogenic antibody FF1-4D5, the pattern of substrate phosphorylation was equivalent. At lower concentrations of H delta a/1, which were still mitogenic, the degree of phosphorylation that was induced was similar to that induced by high concentrations of FF1-4D5. Both antibodies stimulated comparable increases in the kinase activity of the three src-related kinases present in normal B cells and linked to the IgR, i.e., Blk, Fyn, and Lyn. These results suggest that the extent of tyrosine kinase activation is proportional to mIg cross-linking, that induction of B cell DNA synthesis may require little tyrosine kinase activation, and that activation of tyrosine kinase per se does not necessarily lead to B cell DNA synthesis. 相似文献

Fyn is a Src-family tyrosine kinase involved in neuronal development, transmission, and plasticity in mammalian central nervous system. We have previously reported that Fyn binds to a cytoskeletal protein, beta-adducin, in a phosphorylation-dependent manner. In the present report, we show that Fyn phosphorylates beta-adducin at tyrosine 489 located in its C-terminal tail domain. Phosphorylation of beta-adducin at Y489 was required for its association with the Fyn-SH2 domain. An antibody specific to the phosphorylated form of beta-adducin was raised in rabbits and showed that Y489 of beta-adducin was phosphorylated in wild type, but not in Fyn(-/-) mice, suggesting that Y489 of beta-adducin is phosphorylated downstream of Fyn in vivo. After phosphorylation at Y489, beta-adducin was translocated to the cell periphery, and colocalized with Fyn. These results suggest that Fyn phosphorylates and binds to beta-adducin at Y489, resulting in translocation of beta-adducin to the Fyn-enriched regions in the plasma membrane. 相似文献

A close relationship between Sam68, a tyrosine and proline-rich RNA-binding protein, and Src protein tyrosine kinases (PTK) has already been established, also in T lymphocytes. A constitutive phosphorylation of the molecule has also been documented in various transformed T cells, which probably reflects an increased expression of PTK of the Src family. Using the hybridoma T cell line, T8.1, or Jurkat T cells, we investigated the respective contribution of the two Src kinases Fyn and Lck, expressed in T cells, in this phenomenon. By overexpressing the two proteins, we show that the constitutive phosphorylation of Sam68 in vivo directly correlates with cellular Fyn levels, but not with Lck expression, despite the capacity of the PTK to strongly phosphorylate the molecule in vitro. Overexpressed Fyn is mainly localized at the cell membrane. We find that Sam68 phosphorylation, including in the nuclear fraction in which the molecule is predominantly expressed, is lost with a delocalized Fyn mutant deleted of its N-terminal membrane-anchoring domain. Finally, we demonstrate, using a construct encoding a Sam68 molecule without its nuclear localization signal, that nuclear expression of Sam68 is not required for phosphorylation. We conclude that the constitutive phosphorylation of Sam68 in T cells is a Fyn-dependent process occurring in a cell-membrane compartment from which phospho-Sam68 molecules can thereafter accumulate into the nucleus. 相似文献

BCR signaling regulates the activities and fates of B cells. BCR signaling encompasses two feedback loops emanating from Lyn and Fyn, which are Src family protein tyrosine kinases (SFKs). Positive feedback arises from SFK-mediated trans phosphorylation of BCR and receptor-bound Lyn and Fyn, which increases the kinase activities of Lyn and Fyn. Negative feedback arises from SFK-mediated cis phosphorylation of the transmembrane adapter protein PAG1, which recruits the cytosolic protein tyrosine kinase Csk to the plasma membrane, where it acts to decrease the kinase activities of Lyn and Fyn. To study the effects of the positive and negative feedback loops on the dynamical stability of BCR signaling and the relative contributions of Lyn and Fyn to BCR signaling, we consider in this study a rule-based model for early events in BCR signaling that encompasses membrane-proximal interactions of six proteins, as follows: BCR, Lyn, Fyn, Csk, PAG1, and Syk, a cytosolic protein tyrosine kinase that is activated as a result of SFK-mediated phosphorylation of BCR. The model is consistent with known effects of Lyn and Fyn deletions. We find that BCR signaling can generate a single pulse or oscillations of Syk activation depending on the strength of Ag signal and the relative levels of Lyn and Fyn. We also show that bistability can arise in Lyn- or Csk-deficient cells. 相似文献

The B-cell lymphocyte kinase (Blk) is a src-family protein tyrosine kinase specifically expressed in B-lineage cells of mice. The early onset of Blk expression during B-cell development in the bone marrow and the high expression levels of Blk in mature B cells suggest a possible important role of Blk in B-cell physiology. To study the in vivo function of Blk, mice homozygous for the targeted disruption of the blk gene were generated. In homozygous mutant mice, neither blk mRNA nor Blk protein is expressed. Despite the absence of Blk, the development, in vitro activation, and humoral immune responses of B cells to T-cell-dependent and -independent antigens are unaltered. These data are consistent with functional redundancy of Blk in B-cell development and immune responses. 相似文献

To reveal topography of FcgammaRII components of the receptor-signalling complex, large plasma-membrane sheets were obtained by cell cleavage and analysed by immuno-electron microscopy. Non-activated FcgammaRII was dispersed in the plane of the plasma membrane and only rarely was localized in the proximity of Lyn, an Src family tyrosine kinase, and CD55, a glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored protein. After FcgammaRII activation by cross-linking with antibodies, clusters of an electron-dense material acquiring about 86% of FcgammaRII and reaching up to 300 nm in diameter were formed within 5 min. These structures also accommodated about 85% of Lyn and 63% of CD55 labels that were located in close vicinity of gold particles attributed to the cross-linked FcgammaRII . The electron-dense structures were also abundant in tyrosine phosphorylated proteins. At their margins PIP2 was preferentially located. Based on a concentration of Lyn, CD55 and activated FcgammaRII , the electron-dense structures seem to reflect coalescent membrane rafts. 相似文献

Studies in B cells from Lyn-deficient mice have identified Lyn as both a kinetic accelerator and negative regulator of signaling through the BCR. The signaling properties of bone marrow-derived mast cells from Lyn(-/-) mice (Lyn(-/-) BMMCs) have also been explored, but their signaling phenotype remains controversial. We confirm that Lyn(-/-) BMMCs release more beta-hexosaminidase than wild-type BMMCs following FcepsilonRI cross-linking and show that multiple mast cell responses to FcepsilonRI cross-linking (the phosphorylation of receptor subunits and other proteins, the activation of phospholipase Cgamma isoforms, the mobilization of Ca(2+), the synthesis of phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate, the activation of the alpha(4)beta(1) integrin, VLA-4) are slow to initiate in Lyn(-/-) BMMCs, but persist far longer than in wild-type cells. Mechanistic studies revealed increased basal as well as stimulated phosphorylation of the Src kinase, Fyn, in Lyn(-/-) BMMCs. Conversely, there was very little basal or stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation or activity of the inositol phosphatase, SHIP, in Lyn(-/-) BMMCs. We speculate that Fyn may substitute (inefficiently) for Lyn in signal initiation in Lyn(-/-) BMMCs. The loss of SHIP phosphorylation and activity very likely contributes to the increased levels of phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate and the excess FcepsilonRI signaling in Lyn(-/-) BMMCs. The unexpected absence of the transient receptor potential channel, Trpc4, from Lyn(-/-) BMMCs may additionally contribute to their altered signaling properties. 相似文献
