| Abstract: | Protein kinase activities were measured in Rous sarcoma virus-infected baby hamster kidney (BHK) cells that express v-src (BHK v-src]) and compared with those of revertant and control BHK cells. We observed about a fivefold-higher tyrosine phosphorylating activity in BHK (v-src) cell extracts, which was due to src but not other cellular tyrosyl kinase activities since preincubation with anti-src serum reduced the activity to control cell levels. The cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase activity was also altered when v-src was expressed. Resolution of the two cyclic AMP-dependent isozymes from the detergent-soluble fraction of cells revealed that the type I activity was selectively decreased about fivefold in BHK (v-src) cells. |
