Mutants of polyomavirus middle-T antigen 总被引:17,自引:0,他引:17
Polyomavirus middle-T antigen induces the transformation of established cell lines in culture and is known to interact with and/or modulate the activity of several enzymes (pp60c.src, protein kinase C and phosphatidylinositol kinase) in vitro. This review is a compilation of the reported mutants of middle-T antigen and their biochemical and biological properties as they relate to the transformation event. The mutants of polyomavirus middle-T antigen have been previously classified phenotypically. Given the now large number of mutants, the classification presented here is based upon the position within the molecule. A model of middle-T is presented in which the protein is considered as consisting of three domains: a hydrophobic domain (the putative membrane-binding domain), the amino-terminal half of the molecule (the putative pp60c.src-binding domain) and the intervening amino acids (the putative modulatory domain). A current model for the induction of transformation by polyomavirus middle-T is presented. 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 majority of the carboxy-terminal half of polyomavirus middle-T antigen has been variously mutated and, with the exception of the putative membrane-binding domain (amino acids 394 to 415), was found to be largely dispensible for the transforming activity of the protein. A comparison of the small-T antigen amino acid sequences (equivalent to the region of middle-T encoded by exon 1) of simian virus 40, BK virus, polyomavirus, and a recently described hamster papovavirus highlighted regions of potential interest in mapping functions to the amino-terminal half of polyomavirus middle-T antigen. The regions of interest include amino acids 168 to 191 (previously investigated by this group [S. H. Cheng, W. Markland, A. F. Markham, and A. E. Smith, EMBO J. 5:325-334, 1986]), two cysteine-rich clusters (amino acids 120 to 125 and 148 to 153), and amino acids 92 to 117 (within the limits of the previously described hr-t mutant, SD15). Point mutations, multiple point mutations, and deletions were made by site-specific and site-directed mutagenesis within the cysteine-rich clusters and residues 92 to 117. Studies of the transforming ability of the altered middle-T species demonstrated that this activity is highly sensitive to amino acid changes. All four regions (as defined above) within the amino-terminal half of middle-T have now been studied in detail. The phenotype of the mutants is predominantly transformation defective, and the corresponding variant middle-T species are characterized by being either totally or severely handicapped in the ability to associate actively with pp60c-src. Whether the mutations affect the regions of interaction between middle-T and pp60c-src or simply interfere with the overall conformation of this domain is not known. However, there would appear to be a conformational constraint on this portion of the molecule with regard to its interaction with pp60c-src and by extension to the ability of the middle-T species to transform. 相似文献

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

Middle-T antigen (middle-T), the transforming gene product of polyomavirus, associates with several cellular tyrosine kinases, such as pp60c-src. Complex formation leads to kinase activation and is essential for cell transformation. Middle-T-associated as well as uncomplexed pp60c-src is predominantly found in the plasma membrane. We transfected mouse 3T3 fibroblasts with a mutated c-src gene (2Ac-src), allowing the expression of a protein containing alanine instead of glycine in position 2 of the primary translation product. Contrary to the wild-type c-src gene product, pp60c-src(2A) was not myristylated and accumulated in the cytoplasm instead of being transferred to cellular membranes. The mutant protein was able to associate with middle-T and was activated similarly to the wild-type c-src gene product. Both wild-type and 2A mutant protein were membrane associated upon complex formation with middle-T. This finding suggests that the putative carboxy-terminal membrane anchor sequence of middle-T is sufficient to hold middle-T-associated pp60c-src(2A) in the plasma membrane. 相似文献

In polyomavirus-transformed cells, pp60c-src is activated by association with polyomavirus middle T antigen. These complexes have a higher tyrosine kinase activity compared with that of unassociated pp60c-src. Genetic analyses have revealed that the carboxy-terminal 15 amino acids of pp60c-src and the amino-terminal half of middle T antigen are required for this association and consequent activation of the tyrosine kinase. To define in greater detail the borders of the domain in middle T antigen required for activation of pp60c-src, we constructed a set of unidirectional amino-terminal deletion mutants of middle T antigen. Analysis of these mutants revealed that the first six amino acids of middle T antigen are required for it to activate the kinase activity of pp60c-src and to transform Rat-1 fibroblasts. Analysis of a series of insertion and substitution mutants confirmed these observations and further revealed that mutations affecting the first four amino acids of middle T antigen reduced or abolished its capacity to activate the kinase activity of pp60c-src and to transform Rat-1 cells in culture. Our results suggest that the first four amino acids of middle T antigen constitute part of a domain required for activation of the pp60c-src tyrosyl kinase activity and for consequent cellular transformation. 相似文献

The biological and biochemical properties of pp60c-src are regulated, in part, by phosphorylation at Tyr-416 and Tyr-527. The tyrosine kinase and transforming activities of pp60c-src are suppressed by phosphorylation at Tyr-527, whereas full activation of pp60c-src requires phosphorylation at Tyr-416. To test specifically the significance of the negatively charged phosphate moieties on these tyrosine residues, we have substituted the codons for both residues with codons for either Glu or Gln. A negatively charged Glu at position 527 was unable to mimic a phosphorylated Tyr at this position, and, in consequence, the mutated pp60c-src was activated and transforming. Similarly, substitution of Tyr-416 with Glu was unable to stimulate the activities of the enzyme. However, mutagenesis of Tyr-416 to Gln (to form the mutant 416Q) activated the kinase activity approximately twofold over that observed for wild-type pp60c-src. When introduced into the mutant 527F (containing Phe-527 instead of Tyr), the double mutant 416Q-527F exhibited weak transforming activity. This is in contrast to the other double mutants 416E-527F and 416F-527F, which were nontransforming. The biochemical basis by which 416Q activates pp60c-src is not understood but probably involves some local conformational perturbation. Deletion of residues 519 to 524 (RH5), a region previously shown to be necessary for association with middle-T antigen, led to loss of phosphorylation at Tyr-527 and activation of the enzymatic and focus-forming activities of pp60c-src. Hence, the sequences necessary for complex formation with middle-T antigen may also be required by the kinase(s) which phosphorylates Tyr-527 in vivo. This suggests that normal cells contain cellular proteins which are analogous to middle-T antigen and whose action regulates the activity of pp60c-src by controlling phosphorylation or dephosphorylation at residue 527. 相似文献

The c-fyn proto-oncogene is a member of a family of closely related genes of which c-src is the prototype. Using peptide antibodies which had been raised against sequences predicted to be specific for the human c-fyn gene product, the c-fyn protein was identified. It is a tyrosine kinase with apparent mol. wt of 59 kd that is also phosphorylated and myristylated. Like pp60c-src and pp62c-yes, pp59c-fyn is able to form a stable complex with middle-T antigen, the transforming protein of polyomavirus. The transformation-defective middle-T mutant NG59, which is unable to associate stably with pp60c-src does not associate with pp59c-fyn. In contrast to pp60c-src, complex formation with middle-T antigen does not lead to a significant increase in the tyrosine kinase activity of pp59c-fyn. These findings lead us to suggest that middle-T mediated transformation may be a consequence of the deregulation of several members of the src-family of protein tyrosine kinases. 相似文献

Tyrosine residues of middle-T and tyrosine phosphorylation are thought to be important in the transformation of cultured rodent cells by polyomavirus. Of the potential tyrosine sites in the carboxyl-terminal half of middle-T, tyrosines 297, 315, and 322 have been studied previously, whereas tyrosine 250 has not. Two mutant plasmids, XD121 and pT250, encode polyomavirus middle-T species in which the tyrosine 250 residue is affected. XD121 is a deletion mutant in which the region encoding tyrosine 250, together with three adjacent amino acids, is deleted, whereas pT250 is a point mutant in which the tyrosine 250 codon has been converted to a phenylalanine codon. The plasmids were handicapped in transforming ability, as judged by focus formation on a monolayer of Rat-1 cells. Both demonstrated a reduction in the number of foci produced and a lag in the time of appearance of foci when compared with wild-type plasmid. The importance of residue 250 in this phenotype was indicated by the observation that plasmids containing multiple mutations proximal to the tyrosine 250 codon were wild type in their transforming ability. Furthermore, a revertant of pT250 (pT250-w.t.), which utilized the alternative tyrosine codon of TAC, was shown to regain full transforming activity. A combined-mutant plasmid, pTH, encodes a middle-T species in which both tyrosines 250 and 315 are converted to phenylalanine. This plasmid was totally defective in the transformation of rodent cells in a focus formation assay; however, it did impart a small measure of anchorage-independent growth when the encoded protein was expressed in NIH 3T3 cells. The in vitro kinase activity and pp60c-src association of the mutant middle-T antigens were examined. These assays demonstrated a reduction in phosphate acceptor activity for the middle-T species encoded by pT250 and pTH. Quantitative kinase assays showed that all of the tyrosine-mutant middle-T species, encoded by pAS131 (containing the tyrosine 315 codon-to-phenylalanine codon mutation), pT250, and pTH, were able to enhance pp60c-src kinase activity but only at levels which were intermediate and which reflected their transforming abilities relative to wild type. 相似文献

A large number of mutations were introduced into the carboxy-terminal domain of pp60c-src. The level of phosphorylation on Tyr-416 and Tyr-527, the transforming activity (as measured by focus formation on NIH 3T3 cells), kinase activity, and the ability of the mutant pp60c-src to associate with the middle-T antigen of polyomavirus were examined. The results indicate that Tyr-527 is a major carboxy-terminal element responsible for regulating pp60c-src in vivo. A good but not perfect correlation exists between lack of phosphorylation at Tyr-527 and increased phosphorylation at Tyr-416, between elevated phosphorylation on Tyr-416 and activated kinase activity, and between activated kinase activity and transforming activity. Phosphorylation of Tyr-527 was insensitive to the mutation of adjacent residues, indicating that the primary sequence only has a minor role in recognition by kinases or phosphatases which regulate it in vivo. Three mutants which have in common a modified Glu-524 residue were phosphorylated on Tyr-416 and Tyr-527 and were weakly transforming. This suggests that other mechanisms besides complete dephosphorylation of Tyr-527 can lead to increased phosphorylation of Tyr-416 and activation of the transforming activity of pp60c-src. Furthermore, the residues between Asp-518 and Pro-525 were required to form a stable complex with middle-T antigen. The proximity of these sequences to Tyr-527 suggests a model in which middle-T activates pp60c-src by binding directly to this region of the molecular and thereby preventing phosphorylation of Tyr-527. Alternatively, middle-T binding may mediate a conformational change in this region, which in turn induces an alteration in the level of phosphorylation at Tyr-527 and Tyr-416. 相似文献

The src gene of Rous sarcoma virus (v-src) and its cellular homolog, the c-src gene, share extensive sequence homology. The most notable differences between these genes reside in the region encoding the carboxy terminus of the src proteins. We constructed mutations within the 3' end of the v-src gene to determine the significance of this region to the transforming potential of the v-src protein, pp60v-src. The mutants CHdl300 and CHis1511 contain mutations that alter the last 23 amino acids of pp60v-src, whereas the mutant CHis1545-C contains a linker insertion that alters the last 11 amino acids of pp60v-src, and the mutant CHis1545-H contains a linker insertion that results in a 9-amino-acid insertion at position 415. Plasmids bearing each of these mutations were unable to transform chicken cells when introduced into these cells by DNA transfection. In addition, the structurally altered src proteins encoded by the mutants had much-reduced levels of tyrosine protein kinase activity in vivo, as measured by autophosphorylation and phosphorylation of the 34,000-Mr cellular protein, and in vitro, as determined by measuring the level of pp60src autophosphorylation. These data indicate that the carboxy-terminal amino acid sequences play an important role in maintaining the structure of the catalytic domain of pp60v-src. In contrast, the transfection of chicken cells with plasmid DNA containing a chimeric v-c-src gene resulted in morphological cell transformation and the synthesis of an enzymatically active hybrid protein. Therefore, the carboxy-terminal sequence alterations observed in the c-src protein do not alone serve to alter the functional activity of a hybrid v-c-src protein appreciably. 相似文献

pp60v-src is a nonreceptor protein tyrosine kinase that can transform both chicken and rodent fibroblasts. The src homology 2 (SH2) domain of this protein serves a critical role in the regulation of protein tyrosine kinase activity. The host range proteins pp60v-src-L, which contains a deletion of a highly conserved residue (Phe-172) in the SH2 domain, and pp60v-src-PPP, which contains a change from a Leu to a Phe at amino acid 186 in the SH2 domain, transform chicken but not rat cells and have slightly reduced kinase activity measured in vitro. The data presented here show that these altered proteins require autophosphorylation on Tyr-416 for high kinase activity and transforming ability. In the absence of autophosphorylation, there is a further decrease of at least threefold in in vitro kinase activity relative to the phosphorylated host range parental protein, no morphological transformation, a reduction in anchorage independent growth, and no disruption of the actin cytoskeleton. In addition, these SH2 mutations abolish the ability of the SH2 domain to bind a phosphorylated peptide that corresponds to the autophosphorylation site of pp60src. Thus, like mutant alleles of c-src encoding transformation competent proteins, and unlike v-src, transformation by pp60v-src-F172 delta and pp60v-src-L186F is dependent on phosphorylation of Y-416 for high kinase activity and transformation ability. The dependence of transformation on phosphotyrosine is not a reflection of an intramolecular interaction between the autophosphorylation site and the SH2 domains since purified SH2 domains are incapable of binding phosphorylated autophosphorylation site peptides in vitro. 相似文献

To examine how amino acid sequences outside of the catalytic domain of pp60c-src influence the functional activity of this protein, we have introduced deletion mutations within the amino-terminal half of pp60c-src. These mutations caused distinct changes in the biochemical properties of the c-src gene products and in the properties of cells infected with retroviruses carrying these mutant c-src genes. Cells expressing the c-srcNX protein, which contains a deletion of amino acids 15 to 89, displayed a refractile, spindle-shaped morphology, formed intermediate-sized, tightly packed colonies in soft agar, and contained elevated levels of cellular phosphotyrosine-containing proteins. Thus, deletion of amino acids 15 to 89 can activate the kinase activity and transforming potential of the c-src gene product. Deletion of amino acids 112 to 225, however, did not increase the kinase activity or transforming ability of pp60c-src; indeed, deletion of these sequences in c-srcHP suppressed phenotypic alterations induced by pp60c-src. Cells expressing the c-srcNP or c-srcBS gene products (containing deletions of amino acids 15 to 225 and 55 to 169, respectively) displayed a fusiform, refractile morphology and formed diffuse colonies in soft agar; the mutant proteins displayed an increased in vitro protein-tyrosine kinase activity. However, only a few cellular proteins contained elevated levels of phosphotyrosine in vivo. Thus, deletions downstream of amino acid 89 severely restricted the ability of c-src to phosphorylate cellular substrates in vivo without affecting the intrinsic tyrosine kinase activity of the c-src gene product. These results suggest the existence of at least two modulatory regions within the amino-terminal half of pp60c-src that are important for the regulation of tyrosine kinase activity and for the interaction of pp60c-src with cellular substrates. 相似文献

Our results indicate that only one type of tyrosine kinase is present within each middle-T antigen-tyrosine kinase complex, suggesting that middle-T antigen forms separate complexes with different tyrosine kinases. Furthermore, we determined that there is only one molecule of middle-T antigen within any one of these complexes. We interpret this to mean that in any given cell, polyomavirus transformation involves, at least in part, the simultaneous deregulation of a number of separate pathways controlling cellular proliferation. Finally, we also demonstrate that the separate middle-T:pp60c-src and middle-T:pp59c-fyn complexes are each able to interact with the same cellular p81/85-kDa phosphoprotein, a possible component of the phosphatidylinositol kinase. 相似文献

The products of the viral and cellular src genes, p60v-src and p60c-src, appear to be composed of multiple functional domains. Highly conserved regions called src homology 2 and 3 (SH2 and SH3), comprising amino acid residues 88 to 250, are believed to modulate the protein-tyrosine kinase activity present in the carboxy-terminal halves of the src proteins. To explore the functions of these regions more fully, we have made 34 site-directed mutations in a transformation-competent c-src gene encoding phenylalanine in place of tyrosine 527 (Y527F c-src). Twenty of the new mutations change only one or two amino acids, and the remainder delete small or large portions of the SH2-SH3 region. These mutant alleles have been incorporated into a replication-competent Rous sarcoma virus vector to examine the biochemical and biological properties of the mutant proteins after infection of chicken embryo fibroblasts. Four classes of mutant proteins were observed: class 1, mutants with only slight differences from the parental gene products; class 2, mutant proteins with diminished transforming and specific kinase activities; class 3, mutant proteins with normal or enhanced specific kinase activity but impaired biological activity, often as a consequence of instability; and class 4, mutant proteins with augmented biological and catalytic activities. In general, there was a strong correlation between total kinase activity (or amounts of intracellular phosphotyrosine-containing proteins) and transforming activity. Deletion mutations and some point mutations affecting residues 109 to 156 inhibited kinase and transforming functions, whereas deletions affecting residues 187 to 226 generally had positive effects on one or both of those functions, confirming that SH2-SH3 has complex regulatory properties. Five mutations that augmented the transforming and kinase activities of Y527F c-src [F172P, R175L, delta(198-205), delta(206-226), and delta(176-226)] conferred transformation competence on an otherwise normal c-src gene, indicating that mutations in SH2 (like previously described lesions in SH3, the kinase domain, and a carboxy-terminal inhibitory domain) can activate c-src. 相似文献

In vitro phosphorylation of platelet subcellular fractions revealed that most of the alkali-resistant phosphoproteins and the majority of pp60c-src were in the surface membrane fraction. An alkali-resistant phosphoprotein of about 100 kDa was also immune precipitated by an anti-phosphotyrosine antibody and comigrated with gpIIIa. The phosphorylation of gpIIIa, but not gpIIb, was confirmed by the comparison of reduced and non-reduced gels, and this protein was phosphorylated exclusively on tyrosine. In contrast, both gpIIb and gpIIIa were phosphorylated when the purified complex was added to immunopurified, immobilised pp60c-src. A synthetic peptide with partial homology to a putative tyrosine phosphorylation site in the cytoplasmic domain of gpIIIa was phosphorylated by antibody-purified pp60c-src. Our results indicate that tyrosine-specific phosphorylation of gpIIIa by pp60c-src may play a role in the regulation of platelet function. 相似文献

Middle-T antigen of mouse polyomavirus, an oncogenic DNA virus, associates with and activates the cellular tyrosine kinases c-Src, c-Yes, and Fyn. This interaction is essential for polyomavirus-mediated transformation of cells in culture and tumor formation in animals. To determine the domain of c-Src directing association with middle-T, mutant c-Src proteins lacking the amino-terminal unique domain and the myristylation signal, the SH2 domain, the SH3 domain, or all three of these domains were coexpressed with middle-T in NIH 3T3 cells. All mutants were found to associate with middle-T, demonstrating that the kinase domain of c-Src, including the carboxy-terminal regulatory tail, is sufficient for association with middle-T. Moreover, we found that Hck, another member of the Src kinase family, does not bind middle-T, while chimeric kinases consisting of the amino-terminal domains of c-Src fused to the kinase domain of Hck or the amino-terminal domains of Hck fused to the kinase domain of c-Src associated with middle-T. Hck mutated at its carboxy-terminal regulatory residue, tyrosine 501, was also found to associate with middle-T. These results suggest that in Hck, the postulated intramolecular interaction between the carboxy-terminal regulatory tyrosine and the SH2 domain prevents association with middle-T. This intramolecular interaction apparently also limits the ability of c-Src to associate with middle-T, since removal of the SH2 or SH3 domain increases the efficiency with which middle-T binds c-Src. 相似文献

Complementary cDNA clones encoding the TSH (thyroid stimulatory hormone) receptor were isolated from a human thyroid lambda gt10 library using Iow stringency hybridization with LH/hCG (luteinizing hormone-human choriogonadotropic hormone) receptor probes. Sequencing of the clones showed a 764 amino acid open reading frame. The first 21 amino acids probably correspond to a signal peptide, the mature protein thus contains 743 amino acids (calculated molecular weight: 84,501 daltons). Its putative structure consists of a 394 amino acid extracellular domain, a 266 amino acid membrane spanning domain with 7 putative transmembrane segments and a 83 amino acid intracellular domain. A high degree of homology is observed with LH/hCG receptor suggesting the definition of a new subfamily of G-protein coupled receptors. Computer search showed the presence in the putative third intracellular loop of a motif resembling that described in the non receptor type protein tyrosine kinases (c-src, c-yes, c-fgr, etc...). RNA blots showed that the receptor messenger RNA consists of two major species of 4300 and 3900 nucleotides. The cDNA was inserted into an expression vector and after transfection into COS 7 cells it was shown to produce a functional TSH receptor. 相似文献

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
