Tyrosine residues have been identified in the human platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) receptor beta-subunit whose phosphorylation is stimulated by PDGF. These sites are also in vitro autophosphorylation sites. There are a total of three phosphorylation sites in the kinase insert region, tyrosines 740, 751 and 771. Mutagenesis studies show that Tyr740 and 751 are involved in the PDGF-stimulated binding of phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3 kinase, and Tyr771 is required for efficient binding of GAP, the GTPase activator of Ras. The requirement for Tyr751 is only detected at low PDGF receptor levels, suggesting that it increases the affinity of binding of PI3 kinase but is not absolutely required. Small deletions in the kinase insert only 10 residues from Tyr740 and Tyr771 do not significantly reduce binding of PI3 kinase or GAP, indicating that distant sequences are probably unimportant for recognition. The data suggest that the receptor signals to different pathways via different phosphorylated tyrosines, and that certain proteins, such as PI3 kinase, can recognize two phosphorylated tyrosines in a single receptor.  相似文献

Autophosphorylation sites of growth factor receptors with tyrosine kinase activity function as specific binding sites for Src homology 2 (SH2) domains of signaling molecules. This interaction appears to be a crucial step in a mechanism by which receptor tyrosine kinases relay signals to downstream signaling pathways. Nck is a widely expressed protein consisting exclusively of SH2 and SH3 domains, the overexpression of which causes cell transformation. It has been shown that various growth factors stimulate the phosphorylation of Nck and its association with autophosphorylated growth factor receptors. A panel of platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) receptor mutations at tyrosine residues has been used to identify the Nck binding site. Here we show that mutation at Tyr-751 of the PDGF beta-receptor eliminates Nck binding both in vitro and in living cells. Moreover, the Y751F PDGF receptor mutant failed to mediate PDGF-stimulated phosphorylation of Nck in intact cells. A phosphorylated Tyr-751 is also required for binding of phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase to the PDGF receptor. Hence, the SH2 domains of p85 and Nck share a binding site in the PDGF receptor. Competition experiments with different phosphopeptides derived from the PDGF receptor suggest that binding of Nck and p85 is influenced by different residues around Tyr-751. Thus, a single tyrosine autophosphorylation site is able to link the PDGF receptor to two distinct SH2 domain-containing signaling molecules.  相似文献

Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) stimulates autophosphorylation of the PDGF receptor and association of the receptor with several cytoplasmic molecules, including phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI3 kinase). In this study we examined the association of PI3 kinase with immunoprecipitated autophosphorylated PDGF receptor in vitro. The PI3 kinase from cell lysates bound to the wild-type receptor but not to a mutant receptor that had a deletion of the kinase insert region. A protein of an apparent size of 85 kDa bound to the receptor, consistent with previous observations that a protein of this size is associated with PI3 kinase activity. In addition, 110- and 74-kDa proteins bound to the phosphorylated receptor. Dephosphorylated receptors lost the ability to bind PI3 kinase activity as well as the 85-kDa protein. A 20-amino-acid peptide composed of a sequence in the kinase insert region that included one of the autophosphorylation sites of the receptor (tyrosine 719) as well as a nearby tyrosine (Y708) blocked the binding of PI3 kinase to the receptor, but only when the peptide was phosphorylated on tyrosine residues. A scrambled version of the peptide did not block PI3 kinase binding to the receptor even when it was phosphorylated on tyrosine. These tyrosine-phosphorylated peptides did not block binding of phospholipase C-gamma or GTPase-activating protein to the receptor. In separate experiments (receptor blots), soluble radiolabeled receptor bound specifically to an 85-kDa protein present in sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis-fractionated 3T3 cell lysates that were transferred to nitrocellulose paper. The binding was blocked by the same tyrosine-phosphorylated peptides that prevented binding of PI3 kinase activity to immobilized receptors. These findings show that the PDGF receptor binds directly to an 85-kDa protein and to a PI3 kinase activity through specific sequences in the kinase insert region. The association of a 110-kDa protein with the receptor also involve these sequences, suggesting that this protein may be a subunit of the PI3 kinase. Phosphotyrosine is an essential structure required for the interactions of these proteins with the PDGF receptor.  相似文献

In response to binding of platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), the PDGF receptor (PDGFR) beta subunit is phosphorylated on tyrosine residues and associates with numerous signal transduction enzymes, including the GTPase-activating protein of ras (GAP) and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K). Previous studies have shown that association of PI3K requires phosphorylation of tyrosine 751 (Y751) in the kinase insert and that this region of receptor forms at least a portion of the binding site for PI3K. In this study, the in vitro binding of GAP to the PDGFR was investigated. Like PI3K, GAP associates only with receptors that have been permitted to autophosphorylate, and GAP itself does not require tyrosine phosphate in order to stably associate with the phosphorylated PDGFR. To define which tyrosine residues are required for GAP binding, a panel of PDGFR phosphorylation site mutants was tested. Mutation of Y771 reduced the amount of GAP that associates to an undetectable level. In contrast, the F771 (phenylalanine at 771) mutant bound wild-type levels of PI3K, whereas the F740 and F751 mutants bound 3 and 23%, respectively, of the wild-type levels of PI3K but wild-type levels of GAP. The F740/F751 double mutant associated with wild-type levels of GAP, but no detectable PI3K activity, while the F740/F751/F771 triple mutant could not bind either GAP or PI3K. The in vitro and in vivo associations of GAP and PI3K activity to these PDGFR mutants were indistinguishable. The distinct tyrosine residue requirements suggest that GAP and PI3K bind different regions of the PDGFR. This possibility was also supported by the observation that the antibody to the PDGFR kinase insert Y751 region that blocks association of PI3K had only a minor effect on the in vitro binding of GAP. In addition, highly purified PI3K and GAP associated in the absence of other cellular proteins and neither cooperated nor competed with each other's binding to the PDGFR. Taken together, these studies indicate that GAP and PI3K bind directly to the PDGFR and have discrete binding sites that include portions of the kinase insert domain.  相似文献

Src homology 2 (SH2) domains are found in a variety of signaling proteins and bind phosphotyrosine-containing peptide sequences. To explore the binding properties of the SH2 domain of the Src protein kinase, we used immobilized phosphopeptides to bind purified glutathione S-transferase-Src SH2 fusion proteins. With this assay, as well as a free-peptide competition assay, we have estimated the affinities of the Src SH2 domain for various phosphopeptides relative to a Src SH2-phosphopeptide interaction whose Kd has been determined previously (YEEI-P; Kd = 4 nM). Two Src-derived phosphopeptides, one containing the regulatory C-terminal Tyr-527 and another containing the autophosphorylation site Tyr-416, bind the Src SH2 domain in a specific though low-affinity manner (with about 10(4)-lower affinity than the YEEI-P peptide). A platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGF-R) phosphopeptide containing Tyr-857 does not bind appreciably to the Src SH2 domain, suggesting it is not the PDGF-R binding site for Src as previously reported. However, another PDGF-R-derived phosphopeptide containing Tyr-751 does bind the Src SH2 domain (with an affinity approximately 2 orders of magnitude lower than that of YEEI-P). All of the phosphopeptides which bind to the Src SH2 domain contain a glutamic acid at position -3 or -4 with respect to phosphotyrosine; changing this residue to alanine greatly diminishes binding. We have also tested Src SH2 mutants for their binding properties and have interpreted our results in light of the recent crystal structure solution for the Src SH2 domain. Mutations in various conserved and nonconserved residues (R155A, R155K, N198E, H201R, and H201L) cause slight reductions in binding, while two mutations cause severe reductions. The W148E mutant domain, which alters the invariant tryptophan that marks the N-terminal border of the SH2 domain, binds poorly to phosphopeptides. Inclusion of the SH3 domain in the fusion protein partially restores the binding by the W148E mutant. A change in the invariant arginine that coordinates twice with phosphotyrosine in the peptide (R175L) results in a nearly complete loss of binding. The R175L mutant does display high affinity for the PDGF-R peptide containing Tyr-751, via an interaction that is at least partly phosphotyrosine independent. We have used this interaction to show that the R175L mutation also disrupts the intramolecular interaction between the Src SH2 domain and the phosphorylated C terminus within the context of the entire Src protein; thus, the binding properties observed for mutant domains in an in vitro assay appear to mimic those that occur in vivo.  相似文献

Phosphorylation of the major autophosphorylation site (Tyr-1073) within Fujinami sarcoma virus P130gag-fps activates both the intrinsic protein-tyrosine kinase activity and transforming potential of the protein. In this report, a second site of autophosphorylation Tyr-836 was identified. This tyrosine residue is found within a noncatalytic domain (SH2) of P130gag-fps that is required for full protein-kinase activity in both rat and chicken cells. Autophosphorylation of this tyrosine residue implies that the SH2 region lies near the active site in the catalytic domain in the native protein and thus possibly regulates its enzymatic activity. Four mutations have occurred within the SH2 domain between the c-fps and v-fps proteins. Tyr-836 is one of these changes, being a Cys in c-fps. Site-directed mutagenesis was used to investigate the function of this autophosphorylation site. Substitution of Tyr-836 with a Phe had no apparent effect on the transforming ability or protein-tyrosine kinase activity of P130gag-fps in rat-2 cells. Mutagenesis of both autophosphorylation sites (Tyr-1073 and Tyr-836) did not reveal any cooperation between these two phosphorylation sites. The implications of the changes within the SH2 region for v-fps function and activation of the c-fps oncogenic potential are discussed.  相似文献

We have used a transient expression system and mutant platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) receptors to study the binding specificities of the Src homology 2 (SH2) regions of the Ras GTPase-activator protein (GAP) and the p85 alpha subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3 kinase). A number of fusion proteins, each tagged with an epitope allowing recognition by a monoclonal antibody, were expressed at levels comparable to those of endogenous GAP. Fusion proteins containing the central SH2-SH3-SH2 region of GAP or the C-terminal region of p85 alpha, which includes two SH2 domains, bound to PDGF receptors in response to PDGF stimulation. Both fusion proteins showed the same requirements for tyrosine phosphorylation sites in the PDGF receptor as the full-length proteins from which they were derived, i.e., binding of the GAP fusion protein was reduced by mutation of Tyr-771, and binding of the p85 fusion protein was reduced by mutation of Tyr-740, Tyr-751, or both residues. Fusion proteins containing single SH2 domains from either GAP or p85 alpha did not bind detectably to PDGF receptors in this system, suggesting that two SH2 domains in a single polypeptide cooperate to raise the affinity of binding. The sequence specificities of individual SH2 domains were deduced from the binding properties of fusion proteins containing one SH2 domain from GAP and another from p85. The results suggest that the C-terminal GAP SH2 domain specifies binding to Tyr-771, the C-terminal p85 alpha SH2 domain binds to either Tyr-740 or Tyr-751, and each protein's N-terminal SH2 domain binds to unidentified phosphorylation sites.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Ligand stimulation of the platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) beta-receptor leads to activation of its intrinsic tyrosine kinase and autophosphorylation of the intracellular part of the receptor. The autophosphorylated tyrosine residues mediate interactions with downstream signal transduction molecules and thereby initiate different signalling pathways. A pathway leading to activation of the GTP-binding protein Ras involves the adaptor molecule GRB2. Here we show that Tyr-716, a novel autophosphorylation site in the PDGF beta-receptor kinase insert, mediates direct binding of GRB2 in vitro and in vivo. In a panel of mutant PDGF beta-receptors, in which Tyr-716 and the previously known autophosphorylation sites were individually mutated, only PDGFR beta Y716F failed to bind GRB2. Furthermore, a synthetic phosphorylated peptide containing Tyr-716 bound GRB2, and this peptide specifically interrupted the interaction between GRB2 and the wild-type receptor. In addition, the Y716(P) peptide significantly decreased the amount of GTP bound to Ras in response to PDGF in permeabilized fibroblasts as well as in porcine aortic endothelial cells expressing transfected PDGF beta-receptors. The mutant PDGFR beta Y716F still mediated activation of mitogen-activated protein kinases and an increased DNA synthesis in response to PDGF, indicating that multiple signal transduction pathways transduce mitogenic signals from the activated PDGF beta-receptor.  相似文献

The beta subunit of the platelet derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR) coprecipitates with a phosphatidyl-inositol 3 kinase activity (PI3K) following stimulation of cells by PDGF. Mutagenesis of a tyrosine (Y) phosphorylation site, Y751, in the PDGFR, greatly reduces PI3K, consistent with the possibility that phosphorylation of Y751 signals association of PI3K. To test this we have reconstituted the binding of the PDGFR beta subunit and PI3K in vitro. Binding is rapid, saturable and requires phosphorylation of the PDGFR at Y751, but does not require PDGF-dependent phosphorylation of PI3K. To test which portions of the PDGFR are important for binding, we used an antibody to a small region of the receptor that includes Y751. This antibody blocked in vitro binding of PI3K to the receptor, while an antiserum to the C-terminus of the receptor had no effect on binding of PI3K. In addition, we found that PDGF stimulation of a cell results in the association of essentially all the PI3K activity with cellular PDGFRs. These data suggest that PI3K is a specific ligand for PDGF receptors that are phosphorylated at Y751.  相似文献

Two tyrosine phosphorylation sites in the human platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR) beta subunit have been mapped previously to tyrosine (Y)751, in the kinase insert, and Y857, in the kinase domain. Y857 is the major site of tyrosine phosphorylation in PDGF-stimulated cells. To evaluate the importance of these phosphorylations, we have characterized the wild-type (WT) and mutant human PDGF receptor beta subunits in dog kidney epithelial cells. Replacement of either Y751 or Y857 with phenylalanine (F) reduced PDGF-stimulated DNA synthesis to approximately 50% of the WT level. A mutant receptor with both tyrosines mutated was unable to initiate DNA synthesis, as was a kinase-inactive mutant receptor. Transmodulation of the epidermal growth factor receptor required Y857 but not Y751. We also tested the effects of phosphorylation site mutations on PDGF-stimulated receptor kinase activity. PDGF-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of two cellular proteins, phospholipase C gamma 1 (PLC gamma 1) and the GTPase activating protein of Ras (GAP), was assayed in epithelial cells expressing each of the mutant receptors. Tyrosine phosphorylation of GAP and PLC gamma 1 was reduced markedly by the F857 mutation but not significantly by the F751 mutation. Reduced kinase activity of F857 receptors was also evident in vitro. Immunoprecipitated WT receptors showed a two- to fourfold increase in specific kinase activity if immunoprecipitated from PDGF-stimulated cells. The F751 receptors showed a similar increase in activity, but F857 receptors did not. Our data suggest that phosphorylation of Y857 may be important for stimulation of kinase activity of the receptors and for downstream actions such as epidermal growth factor receptor transmodulation and mitogenesis.  相似文献

The receptor for the myeloid cell growth factor colony stimulating factor 1 (CSF-1) is a protein tyrosine kinase that is closely related to the PDGF receptor. Ligand binding results in kinase activation and autophosphorylation. Three autophosphorylation sites, Tyr697, Tyr706 and Tyr721, have been mapped to the kinase insert domain. Deletion of the entire kinase insert domain completely abrogates signal transduction by the CSF-1 receptor expressed in Rat-2 fibroblasts. To investigate the function of individual phosphorylation sites present in the CSF-1 receptor kinase insert domain, a number of phosphorylation site mutants were expressed in Rat-2 fibroblasts. Mutation of either Tyr697 or Tyr721 compromised signal transduction by the CSF-1 receptor. A mutant receptor, in which both Tyr697 and Tyr721 were replaced by phenylalanine, has lost all ability to induce changes in morphology or to increase cell growth rate in response to CSF-1. Tyr721 has been identified recently as the binding site for PI 3-kinase. Here we report that GRB2 associates with the CSF-1 receptor upon ligand binding. The phosphorylation on tyrosine of SHC and several other GRB2-associated proteins increased upon stimulation with CSF-1. Tyr697 was identified as a binding site for GRB2. We suggest that PI 3-kinase, GRB2 and some of the GRB2-associated proteins could play an important role in signal transduction by the CSF-1 receptor.  相似文献

The mutant c-erbB-2 protein with Glu instead of Val-659 exhibited transforming activity in NIH 3T3 cells. This protein showed enhanced tyrosine kinase activity in vitro and enhanced autophosphorylation at Tyr-1248 located proximal to the carboxyl terminus. Enhanced tyrosine phosphorylation of several cellular proteins was detected in cells expressing the Glu-659 c-erbB-2 protein. Introduction of an additional mutation at the ATP-binding site (Lys-753 to Met) of this protein resulted in abolition of its transforming ability. These data indicate that the transforming potential of c-erbB-2 is closely correlated with elevated tyrosine kinase activity of the gene product. To investigate the role of autophosphorylation in cell transformation, we introduced an additional mutation at the autophosphorylation site of the Glu-659 c-erbB-2 protein (Tyr-1248 to Phe). This mutant protein exhibited lower tyrosine kinase activity and lower transforming activity. On the other hand, when the carboxyl-terminal 230 amino acid residues were deleted from the c-erbB-2 protein, the tyrosine kinase activity and cell-transforming activity of the protein were enhanced. Thus, the carboxyl-terminal domain, which contains the major autophosphorylation site, Tyr-1248, may regulate cellular transformation negatively and autophosphorylation may eliminate this negative regulation.  相似文献

Here, we demonstrate a mechanism of TGFbeta-mediated inhibition of PDGF-induced DNA synthesis in mesangial cells. TGFbeta significantly inhibited nuclear Akt phosphorylation without any effect on PDGF-stimulated phosphorylation of PDGFR at PI 3 kinase binding site (Tyr-751). Remarkably, TGFbeta inhibited cyclin D1 and cyclin E expression with concomitant decrease in CDK2 activity induced by PDGF. More importantly, we demonstrate that TGFbeta significantly abolished Akt-mediated serine-9 phosphorylation of glycogen synthase kinase 3beta (GSK3beta), thus prevented its inactivation. Expression of inactive GSK3betaK85R mutant increased cyclin D1 expression and DNA synthesis similar to PDGF. These results provide the first evidence that TGFbeta intercepts Akt kinase activity in the nucleus to block inactivation of GSK3beta, leading to attenuation of PDGF-induced CDK2 activity and DNA synthesis.  相似文献

Exposure of cells to hydrogen peroxide or platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) induced Akt phosphorylation and oxidation of phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN). The Cys124 and Cys71 residues of PTEN were critical for the formation of a disulfide bond and the intermediate glutathionylation in the process of reduction of the disulfide bond. To determine which specific tyrosine residues of the PDGF beta receptor (PDGFβR) is involved in PDGF-induced PTEN oxidation and Akt phosphorylation, we investigated a kinase activity-deficient mutant and PDGFβR mutants where the tyrosine residues in the binding site for phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K), GTPase-activating protein of Ras, Src homology 2 domain containing protein-tyrosine phosphatase-2, and phospholipase C-1 were replaced by Phe. Both PTEN oxidation and Akt phosphorylation did not occur in response to PDGF in the kinase-deficient mutant and in the PDGFβR mutant with a mutation in the PI3K binding site (Tyr740 and Tyr751). Thus, the kinase activity and the constituent Tyr740 and Tyr751 residues of PDGFβR in the cells stimulated with PDGF are responsible for the oxidation of PTEN and the Akt phosphorylation.  相似文献

Autophosphorylation is a key event in the activation of protein kinases. In this study, we demonstrate that autophosphorylation of the recombinant Src family kinase Hck leads to a 20-fold increase in its specific enzymatic activity. Hck was found to autophosphorylate readily to a stoichiometry of 1.3 mol of phosphate per mol of enzyme, indicating that the kinase autophosphorylated at more than one site. Solid phase sequencing and two-dimensional mapping of the phosphopeptide fragments derived from the autophosphorylated enzyme revealed that the kinase can undergo autophosphorylation at the following two sites: (i) Tyr-388, which is located to the consensus autophosphorylation site commonly found in the activation loop of many protein kinases, and (ii) Tyr-29, which is located in the unique domain of Hck. Hck purified from mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages could also autophosphorylate in vitro at both Tyr-388 and Tyr-29, indicating that naturally occurring Hck can also autophosphorylate at Tyr-29. Furthermore, Hck transiently expressed in human embryonic kidney 293T cells was found to be phosphorylated at Tyr-29 and Tyr-388, proving that Hck can also undergo autophosphorylation at both sites in vivo. The recombinant enzyme carrying the mutation of Tyr-388 to Phe was also able to autophosphorylate at Tyr-29, albeit at a significantly slower rate. A 2-fold increase in the specific enzymatic activity was seen with this mutant despite the stoichiometry of autophosphorylation only approaching 0.2 mol of phosphate per mol of enzyme. This indicates that autophosphorylation of Tyr-29 contributes significantly to the activation of Hck. Regulation of the catalytic activity by phosphorylation of Tyr-29 in the unique domain may represent a new mechanism of regulation of Src family tyrosine kinases.  相似文献

Cancer cells depend on chemotaxis for invasion and frequently overexpress and/or activate Src. We previously reported that v-Src accelerates motility by promoting phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3-K) signalling but abrogates chemotaxis. We here addressed the mechanism of the loss of chemotactic response to platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) gradients in fibroblasts harbouring a thermosensitive v-Src kinase. At non-permissive temperature, PDGF receptor (PDGFR) signalling, assessed by phosphoY(751)-specific antibodies (a docking site for PI3-K), was not detected without PDGF and showed a concentration-dependent PDGF response. Both immunolabeling of PI3-K (p110) and live cell imaging of its product (phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5 tris-phosphate) showed PI3-K recruitment and activation at lamellipodia polarized towards a PDGF gradient. Centrosomes and PDGFR- and Src-bearing endosomes were also oriented towards this gradient. Upon v-Src thermoactivation, (i) Y(751) phosphorylation was moderately induced without PDGF and synergistically increased with PDGF; (ii) PI3-K was recruited and activated all along the plasma membrane without PDGF and did not polarize in response to a PDGF gradient; and (iii) polarization of centrosomes and of PDGFR-bearing endosomes were also abrogated. Thus, PDGF can further increase PDGFR auto-phosphorylation despite strong Src kinase activity, but diffuse downstream activation of PI3-K by Src abrogates cell polarization and chemotaxis: "signalling requires silence".  相似文献

A protein tyrosine kinase has been purified from the particulate fraction of bovine spleen to a specific activity of 0.217 mumol/min/mg at 100 microM ATP and 3 mM [Val5] angiotensin II. Both the angiotensin phosphorylation activity and immunoreactivity towards an antibody preparation raised against a synthetic peptide containing the autophosphorylation site of pp60c-src, Cys-src(403-421), were monitored during the purification. The purified sample displayed three closely spaced protein bands with molecular weights of 50-55 kDa on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. All bands could be phosphorylated exclusively on tyrosine residues under autophosphorylation conditions. All reacted on immunoblots with an antibody raised against a synthetic peptide corresponding to the consensus autophosphorylation site of members of the pp60c-src family of tyrosine kinases. Tryptic phosphopeptide maps of the three proteins were essentially indistinguishable. The results suggest that the purified enzyme preparation contained mainly three closely related pp60c-src-family protein tyrosine kinases or a pp60src-family protein tyrosine kinase modified posttranslationally to give three closely spaced protein bands on sodium dodecyl sulfate gel. Neither of these proteins appears to be pp60c-src or p56lck. The spleen protein tyrosine kinase was found to phosphorylate a p34cdc2 kinase peptide, Cys-cdc2(8-20), which contained the regulatory tyrosine residue Tyr-15 about 20 times better than [Val5]angiotensin II or Cys-src(403-421) peptide at a peptide substrate concentration of 1 mM. In contrast, epidermal growth factor receptor kinase partially purified from A431 cells did not show preference for Cys-cdc2(8-20) as its substrate. Although Cys-cdc2(8-20) contained two tyrosine residues, only the tyrosine corresponding to Tyr-15 in p34cdc2 was phosphorylated by the spleen tyrosine kinase. The observation suggests that the primary structure surrounding Tyr-15 of p34cdc2 contains substrate structural determinants specific for the spleen tyrosine kinase.  相似文献

The E5 oncoprotein of bovine papillomavirus type 1 is a Golgi-resident, 44-amino acid polypeptide that can transform fibroblast cell lines by activating endogenous platelet-derived growth factor receptor beta (PDGF-R). However, the recent discovery of E5 mutants that exhibit strong transforming activity but minimal PDGF-R tyrosine phosphorylation indicates that E5 can potentially use additional signal transduction pathway(s) to transform cells. We now show that two classes of E5 mutants, despite poorly activating the PDGF-R, induce tyrosine phosphorylation and activation of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI 3-K) and that this activation is resistant to a selective inhibitor of PDGF-R kinase activity, tyrphostin AG1296. Consistent with this independence from PDGF-R signaling, the E5 mutants fail to induce significant cell proliferation in the absence of PDGF, unlike wild-type E5 or the sis oncoprotein. Despite differences in growth factor requirements, however, both wild-type E5 and mutant E5 cell lines form colonies in agarose. Interestingly, activation of PI 3-K occurs without concomitant activation of the ras-dependent mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway. The known ability of constitutively activated PI 3-K to induce anchorage-independent cell proliferation suggests a mechanism by which the mutant E5 proteins transform cells.  相似文献

Cross-talk between integrin-mediated adhesion and growth factors has been described in many recent studies; however, the underlying mechanisms remain incompletely understood. We report here that detachment of cells from the extracellular matrix induced a decrease in both the autophosphorylation and protein levels of the platelet-derived growth factor receptor beta (PDGF-R beta), which was completely reversed upon replating cells on fibronectin. The effect occurred in all cells examined but to a greater extent in primary fibroblasts compared with established cell lines. Decreased PDGF-R levels in suspended cells correlated with ubiquitination of the PDGF-R and was blocked by treatment with inhibitors of the proteasome pathway. Unlike PDGF-induced down-regulation, detachment-induced degradation did not require receptor autophosphorylation, internalization, or tyrosine kinase activity. We conclude that cell detachment results in cellular desensitization to PDGF that is mediated by degradation of the PDGF-R via a novel ubiquitin-dependent pathway.  相似文献

Repression of the tyrosine kinase activity of the cellular src protein (pp60c-src) depends on the phosphorylation of a tyrosine residue (Tyr-527) near the carboxy terminus. Tyr-527 is located 11 residues C terminal from the genetically defined end of the kinase domain (Leu-516) and is therefore in a negative regulatory region. Because the precise sequence of amino acids surrounding Tyr-527 appears to be unimportant for regulation, we hypothesized that the conformational constraints induced by phosphorylated Tyr-527 may require the correct spacing between the kinase domain (Leu-516) and Tyr-527. In this report, we show that deletions at residue 518 of two, four, or seven amino acids or insertions at this residue of two or four amino acids activated the kinase activity and thus the transforming potential of pp60c-src. As is the case for the prototype transforming variant, pp60527F, activation caused by these deletions or insertions was abolished when Tyr-416 (the autophosphorylation site) was changed to phenylalanine. In comparison with wild-type pp60c-src, the src proteins containing the alterations at residue 518 showed a lower phosphorylation state at Tyr-527 regardless of whether residue 416 was a tyrosine or a phenylalanine. Mechanisms dealing with the importance of spacing between the kinase domain and Tyr-527 are discussed.  相似文献
