We have isolated eight rat lymphocyte-myeloma hybrid cell lines producing monoclonal antibodies that react with the 21,000-dalton transforming protein (p21) encoded by the v-ras gene of Harvey murine sarcoma virus (Ha-MuSV). These antibodies specifically immunoprecipitate both phosphorylated and non-phosphorylated forms of p21 from lysates of cells transformed by Ha-MuSV. All eight react with the products of closely related ras genes expressed in cells transformed by two additional sarcoma viruses (rat sarcoma virus and BALB sarcoma virus) or by a cellular Harvey-ras gene placed under the control of a viral promoter. Three of the antibodies also react strongly with the p21 encoded by the v-ras gene of Kirsten MuSV. These same three antibodies immunoprecipitate the predominant p21 species synthesized normally in a variety of rodent cell lines, including the p21 produced at high levels in 416B murine hemopoietic cells. This suggests that an endogenous gene closely related to Kirsten-ras is expressed in these cells. The monoclonal antibodies have been used to confirm two properties associated with p21; localization at the inner surface of the membrane of Ha-MuSV-transformed cells, assayed by immunofluorescence microscopy, and binding of guanine nucleotides. 相似文献

The Harvey murine sarcoma virus has been cloned and induces focus formation on NIH 3T3 cells. Recombinants of this virus have been constructed which include the thymidine kinase gene of herpes simplex virus type 1 in a downstream linkage with the p21 ras gene of Harvey murine sarcoma virus. Harvey murine sarcoma tk virus rescued from cells transfected with this construct is both thymidine kinase positive and focus inducing in in vitro transmission studies. The hypoxanthine-aminopterin-thymidine selectability of the thymidine kinase gene carried by this virus has been exploited to develop three mutants defective in the p21 ras sequence. All three are focus negative and thymidine kinase positive when transmitted to suitable cells. Of these, only one encodes a p22 that is immunologically related to p21. This mutant has been used to explore the relationship between the known characteristics of p21 and cellular transformation. Data presented herein indicate that the p21 of Harvey murine sarcoma virus consists of at least two domains, one which specifies the guanine nucleotide-binding activity of p21 and the other which is involved in p21-membrane association in transformed cells. 相似文献

Comparative analysis of p21 proteins from various cell types by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The products of the ras gene family are related proteins at a molecular weight of 21 kDa, designated p21. In the present study we used two-dimensional gel electrophoresis to compare p21 proteins from five different normal and malignant cell lines. Using a known protein (3H-labeled translation initiation factor [eIF-4D]) as a standard internal marker for isoelectric point (pI), we show that p21 proteins from various cells differ only slightly in molecular weight (21-24 kDa) but express a wide variety in charge (pI 4.8 to 7) that could only be detected by the use of two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. p21 in NIH/3T3 cells was expressed as a single protein, which migrated at 21 kDa and pI 5.1. This peptide, which is probably the product of the normal cellular ras gene, was also detected in normal human lymphocytes. The synthesis of this peptide was not elevated in the transformed cells. However, transformation of NIH/3T3 fibroblasts and of human leukocytes was found to be associated with expression of qualitatively different forms of p21 peptides. Four additional p21-associated peptides of identical molecular weight (23 kDa), but multiple charge forms, were detected selectively in Kirsten murine sarcoma virus-transformed NIH/3T3 cells. Transformation of cells with Harvey murine sarcoma virus was found to be associated with prominent expression of two major pairs of p21-associated proteins, one at 21 kDa (pI, 5.2 and 5.3) and the other at 23 kDa (pI, 5.1 and 5.2). In HL-60 leukemic cells there was an additional, more acidic form (pI 5.0) of p21, which appeared to be absent or reduced in normal human lymphocytes. These results indicate that p21 from viral origin or cellular origin might be expressed in the cells in multiple charge forms. The capability to distinguish multiple forms of p21 and slight charge modifications associated with malignancy should call for the use of 2-D gel electrophoresis as an important tool in future studies involving p21 proteins. 相似文献

BALB and Harvey murine sarcoma viruses contain ras transforming genes capable of altering the proliferation and differentiation of cells within the erythroid and lymphoid lineages (W. D. Hankins and E. M. Scolnick, Cell 26:91-97, 1981; J. H. Pierce and S. A. Aaronson, J. Exp. Med. 156:873-887, 1982; E. M. Scolnick et al., Mol. Cell. Biol. 1:68-74). The present studies demonstrate hematopoietic targets of ras-containing viruses within the myeloid lineage. Diffuse colonies were induced by BALB or Harvey marine sarcoma virus infection of murine bone marrow cells. Generally, these colonies were made up of relatively mature macrophages which exhibited increased self-renewal capacity but eventually underwent terminal differentiation in culture. Cells from one BALB murine sarcoma virus-induced colony displayed phenotypic markers of more immature myelomonocytic cells. This colony, designated BAMC1, readily established as a continuous cell line and was highly malignant in vivo. Exposure of these cells to 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate led to the induction of a more mature myeloid phenotype, which was associated with decreased growth potential in vitro and in vivo. The effects of the inducing agent were not mediated by an alteration in the level of expression of the ras-coded p21 transforming protein. Our present findings extend the spectrum of targets whose growth is altered by ras-containing retroviruses to cells at several stages of differentiation within each of the major hematopoietic lineages. 相似文献

Rasheed rat sarcoma virus (RaSV) has been shown to code for a protein of 29,000 Mr not present in replication-competent rat type C helper virus (RaLV)-infected cells. This protein is a fused gene product consisting of a portion of the RaLV p15 gag protein and the transformation-specific 21,000 Mr (p21) ras protein, which is also found in Harvey murine sarcoma virus. We now report the molecular cloning of both the SD-1 (Sprague-Dawley) strain of RaLV and the transforming ras sequences of RaSV. Heteroduplex analysis of these cloned DNAs demonstrated that the RaSV ras gene (v-Ra-ras) was inserted into the rat type C viral genome with a small deletion of RaLV genetic information in the 5' region of the gag gene and that the v-Ra-ras gene (0.72 kilobase pair) is homologous to and colinear with the p21 ras gene of Harvey murine sarcoma virus (v-Ha-ras). Restriction enzyme mapping confirmed the homology demonstrated by heteroduplex mapping, showing strong site conservation of restriction endonucleases known to cleave v-Ha-ras. Cloned v-Ra-ras DNA transformed NIH 3T3 cells, inducing the synthesis of the p29 RaSVgag-ras protein. 相似文献

Revertants of Ha-MuSV-transformed MDCK cells express reduced levels of p21 and possess a more normal phenotype 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Four subclones of the originally cloned Harvey murine sarcoma virus-transformed Madin Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells have been isolated. These subclones fall into two general classes. Two subclones have a fibroblastic morphology, have lost the growth requirement for prostaglandin E1 (PGE1), do not respond to glucagon or vasopressin, and, in general, appear transformed. Two other subclones have epithelioid morphologies, are growth-stimulated by PGE1, respond to vasopressin with an increase in intracellular cAMP. We propose that these cells represent revertants to a more non-transformed phenotype. Unlike normal cells, however, these revertants grow under anchorage-independent conditions, express detectable but reduced amounts of the transforming gene product, p21, and grow in nude mice. The appearance of such revertants may be one cause of the observed heterogeneity of tumor cells. 相似文献

The sequences encoding the 21-kilodalton transforming protein (p21 ras) of Harvey murine sarcoma virus have previously been localized genetically to a 1.3-kilobase segment of the viral DNA (E. H. Chang, R. W. Ellis, E. M. Scolnick, and D. R. Lowy, Science 210:1249-1251, 1980). Within this segment, DNA sequence analysis has found a single open reading frame large enough to encode the viral p21 (R. Dhar, R. W. Ellis, T. Y. Shih, S. Oroszlan, B. Shapiro, J. Maizel, D. Lowy, and E. M. Scolnick, Science 217:934-937, 1982). There are three potential in-frame ATG initiation codons at the 5' end of this open reading frame. By constructing a mutant of Harvey murine sarcoma virus DNA from which the first two ATG codons of this open reading frame have been deleted, we now show by transfection of the mutant viral DNA into NIH 3T3 cells that only the third ATG codon is necessary and sufficient for synthesis of the viral p21 and for cellular transformation. 相似文献

Transformation of a rat thyroid epithelial cell line (FRTL5-C12) with Kirsten and Harvey murine sarcoma viruses (carrying the ras oncogenes) results in elevated levels of three perchloric acid-soluble nuclear phosphoproteins. These three proteins are also induced to high levels in the PC-C13 thyroid epithelial cell line when transformed by the myeloproliferative sarcoma virus (carrying the v-mos oncogene) and when transformed by transfection with the c-myc proto-oncogene followed by infection with the polyoma leukaemia virus (PyMuLV) carry the polyoma middle T antigen gene. Neither c-myc or PyMuLV alone induced high levels of the three nuclear proteins. Untransformed thyroid fibroblasts have high levels of two of the three proteins and can be transformed by PyMuLV alone resulting in the appearance of the third protein. Transformation with Harvey sarcoma virus also results in the induction of the third protein. The three phosphoproteins have been purified by h.p.l.c. and shown to be related to the HeLa protein HMGI already described. The results of these studies indicate that elevated levels of these HMGI-like proteins are associated with neoplastic transformation and/or with an undifferentiated phenotype. 相似文献

A previously described type virus stock (designated PP-1R), isolated by cocultivating baboon cells with mink cells transformed by Kirsten sarcoma virus (64J1), has been further cloned and characterized. End point-diluted stocks of PP-1R have been obtained that are free of focus-forming activity and lack both Kirsten sarcoma and primate type C viral sequences. Nucleic acid hybridization experiments show that the cloned virus (MiLV) is an endogenous, genetically transmitted virus of the mink (Mustela vison). MiLV replicates in canine, feline, and 64J1 mink cells but not in an untransformed mink cell line. Multiple viral gene copies can be detected in the DNA of normal mink cells in culture and in normal mink tissues; related endogenous viral genes are also detected in several related Mustela species. The virus codes for a p30 protein very closely related antigenically to that of feline leukemia virus but contains p15 and p12 proteins that are antigenically distinct. The mink cell line, Mv1Lu, and its Kirsten sarcoma-transformed derivatives, 64J1, express relatively low levels of type C viral RNA related to MiLV and normally do not produce detectable levels of MiLV p30 protein or complete, infectious viral particles. Infection of sarcoma virus-transformed mink cells with baboon type C virus, however, can augment the level of expression of endogenous mink viral RNA and can result in the synthesis and packaging of mink viral RNA and p30 antigen in extracellular virions. Since the Mv1Lu cell line and its tranformed derivatives have become widely used in studies of retroviruses, the possibility of activating endogenous mink viral genes should be considered by investigators working with these cells. 相似文献

The EJ bladder carcinoma oncogene is activated by a point mutation in the c-rasH proto-oncogene at the 12th amino acid codon. In an attempt to understand the mechanism of oncogenic activation, a comparative study was undertaken to examine the metabolic turnover and subcellular localization of the p21 protein encoded by the EJ oncogene, the viral oncogene, and its normal cellular homolog. Pulse-labeling experiments indicated that both c-ras p21 proteins were synthesized by a very similar pathway, as was observed for the viral p21 protein of Harvey murine sarcoma virus. The pro-p21 proteins were detected in free cytosol, and the processed products were associated with plasma membrane. The intracellular half-life of p21 proteins was determined by pulse-labeling and chasing in the presence of excess unlabeled methionine. Although both p21 proteins of EJ and the normal c-ras genes which are not phosphorylated have a half-life of 20 h, the viral p21 protein of Harvey murine sarcoma virus which includes a phosphorylated form is much more stable in cells, having a half-life of 42 h, apparently due to phosphorylation. 相似文献

p21v-H-ras, the transforming protein of Harvey murine sarcoma virus, contains a covalently attached lipid. Using thin-layer chromatography, we identified the acyl group as the 16-carbon saturated fatty acid palmitic acid. No myristic acid was detected in fatty acids released from in vivo-labeled p21v-H-ras. The p21v-K-ras protein encoded by Kirsten sarcoma virus was also palmitylated. The processing and acylation of p21v-K-ras however differed from that of p21v-H-ras. Three forms of [3H]palmitic acid-labeled p21ras proteins were detected in Kirsten sarcoma virus-transformed cells. This contrasted with Harvey sarcoma virus, in which two forms of p21v-H-ras contained palmitic acid. Analysis by partial proteolysis of p21v-H-ras labeled with [3H]palmitic acid suggested that all of the lipid found in intact p21v-H-ras was located in the C-terminal region. On sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels, p21v-H-ras labeled with [3H]palmitic acid migrated slightly ahead of the majority of p21v-H-ras. Of the mature forms of p21v-H-ras, apparently only a subpopulation contains palmitic acid. 相似文献

A novel species of 30S RNA has been detected in a variety of mouse cell lines. The 30S RNA is specifically packaged by helper-independent type C viruses propagated in such cells. Nucleic acid hybridization detects no homology between the 30SRNA and the genomic RNA of helper-independent mouse type C viruses. The properties of the 30S RNA suggest that it is a defective endogenous mouse type C virus and that it is analogous to a previously described class of defective endogenous rat type C virus, which has been shown previously to be the progenitor of Kirsten and Harvey murine sarcoma viruses. 相似文献

We have recently described an intracellular protein, p21, in nonproducer cells transformed by either the Kirsten (Ki-MSV) or Harvey (Ha-MSV) strain of murine sarcoma virus (Shih et al., Virology, in press). The p21 is phosphorylated and has been shown to be coded for by either Ki-MSV or Ha-MSV. In this report, we compare the thermal stability of the newly synthesized [35S]methionine-labeled p21 in cells transformed by the wild-type Ki-MSV or by a mutant of Ki-MSV (ts 371) which is temperature sensitive in a viral function required for the maintenance of several properties of the transformed phenotype. The immunoprecipitability of the p21 coded for by the ts 371 Ki-MSV was markedly more thermolabile than the p21 of the wild-type Ki-MSV when the cell extracts are heated in vitro. The present finding suggests that the p21 is required for the maintenance of transformation induced by Ki-MSV. 相似文献

Abnormal regulation of mammalian p21ras contributes to malignant tumor growth in von Recklinghausen (type 1) neurofibromatosis. 总被引:37,自引:0,他引:37

Tumor cell lines derived from malignant schwannomas removed from patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) have been examined for the level of expression of NF1 protein. All three NF1 lines examined expressed lower levels of NF1 protein than control cells, and the level in one line was barely detectable. The tumor lines expressed normal levels of p120GAP and p21ras. Although the p21ras proteins isolated from the tumor cells had normal (nonmutant) biochemical properties in vitro, they displayed elevated levels of bound GTP in vivo. The level of total cellular GAP-like activity was reduced in extracts from the tumor line that expresses very little NF1 protein. Introduction of the catalytic region of GAP into this line resulted in morphological reversion and lower in vivo GTP binding by endogenous p21ras. These data implicate NF1 protein as a tumor suppressor gene product that negatively regulates p21ras and define a "positive" growth role for ras activity in NF1 malignancies. 相似文献
