Mitochondrial protein tyrosine phosphorylation is an important mechanism for the modulation of mitochondrial functions. In the present study, we have identified novel substrates of c-Src in mitochondria and investigated their function in the regulation of oxidative phosphorylation. The Src family kinase inhibitor PP2 {amino-5-(4-chlorophenyl)-7-(t-butyl) pyrazolo [3,4d] pyrimidine} exhibits significant reduction of respiration. Similar results were obtained from cells expressing kinase-dead c-Src, which harbours a mitochondrial-targeting sequence. Phosphorylation-site analysis selects c-Src targets, including NDUFV2 (NADH dehydrogenase [ubiquinone] flavoprotein 2) at Tyr(193) of respiratory complex I and SDHA (succinate dehydrogenase A) at Tyr(215) of complex II. The phosphorylation of these sites by c-Src is supported by an in vivo assay using cells expressing their phosphorylation-defective mutants. Comparison of cells expressing wild-type proteins and their mutants reveals that NDUFV2 phosphorylation is required for NADH dehydrogenase activity, affecting respiration activity and cellular ATP content. SDHA phosphorylation shows no effect on enzyme activity, but perturbed electron transfer, which induces reactive oxygen species. Loss of viability is observed in T98G cells and the primary neurons expressing these mutants. These results suggest that mitochondrial c-Src regulates the oxidative phosphorylation system by phosphorylating respiratory components and that c-Src activity is essential for cell viability.

We have shown that mitochondrial c-Src regulates reactive oxygen species (ROS) production by phosphorylating the succinate dehydrogenase A of respiratory complex II (CxII). To elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying ROS production regulated by c-Src in the CxII, we investigated the CxII protein complex derived from cells treated with Src family kinase inhibitor PP2. We identified flotillin-1 as a c-Src target that prevents ROS production from CxII. Phosphorylation-site analysis suggests Tyr56 and Tyr149 on flotillin-1 as sites for phosphorylation by c-Src. A comparison of cells expressing flotillin-1 and its phosphorylation defective mutants confirms the requirement for flotillin-1 phosphorylation for its interaction with CxII and subsequent reduction in ROS production. Our findings suggest a critical role of flotillin-1 in ROS production mediated by c-Src.
