Products of the crk oncogene are expressed in all tissues. Crk proteins are composed exclusively of Src homology 2 (SH2) and Src homology 3 (SH3) domains, and they have been implicated in intracellular signaling. For example, they participate as mediators of Ras activation during nerve growth factor stimulation of PC12 pheochromocytoma cells. We examined the role of Crk proteins during T cell receptor-mediated signaling and observed that Crk proteins specifically interact, via their SH2 domains, with a tyrosine-phosphorylated 116-kDa protein upon T cell activation. p116 may be related to the recently cloned fibroblast p130cas and/or p120-Cbl. In addition, we observed that GST-Crk fusion proteins and Crk-L bind, most likely via their SH3 domain, to C3G, a Ras guanine nucleotide exchange factor. Thus, the interaction of Crk with p116 and C3G strongly implicates Crk as a mediator of T cell receptor signaling, possibly involved in Ras activation.

Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and erythropoietin (Epo) are hematopoietic growth factors that regulate proliferation and differentiation of hematopoietic cells. They elicit and control a cascade of biochemical events, the earliest of which is tyrosine phosphorylation of several cellular proteins. Grb2/Ash is composed of SH2 and SH3 domains. The SH2 domain binds to tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins, and the SH3 domains bind to proteins containing proline-rich regions. It is considered that Grb2/Ash functions as an adapter protein linking tyrosine kinases and Ras in downstream of receptors for growth factors in fibroblasts. However, the mechanisms of signal transduction through Grb2/Ash and the roles of proteins associated with Grb2/Ash remain to be determined in hematopoietic cells. By means of the binding experiments using the glutathione S-transferase fusion protein including the full-length Grb2/Ash, we have found that Shc and unidentified 130- and 135-kDa proteins are associated with Grb2/Ash and that they are tyrosine phosphorylated by treatment with GM-CSF or Epo in a human leukemia cell line, UT-7. We have purified the 130-kDa protein (pp130) using the glutathione S-transferase-Grb2/Ash affinity column. The amino acid sequence analysis of the three peptides derived from the in situ protease digestion of the purified pp130 showed that the pp130 was identical to the human c-cbl proto-oncogene product (c-Cbl). c-Cbl constitutively binds to the SH3 domain of Grb2/Ash both in vitro and in vivo but not to the SH2 domain of Grb2/Ash, and the binding of Grb2/Ash to c-Cbl or Sos was not altered by GM-CSF stimulation. Moreover, c-Cbl (pp130) becomes tyrosine phosphorylated rapidly and transiently depending on GM-CSF or Epo stimulation. These findings strongly suggest that c-Cbl is implicated in the signal transduction of GM-CSF or Epo in hematopoietic cells and that c-Cbl is involved in another signaling pathway different from the Ras signaling pathway.

T-cell receptor (TCR) cross-linking increases tyrosine phosphorylation of multiple proteins, only a few of which have been identified. One of the most rapidly tyrosine-phosphorylated polypeptides is the 120-kDa product of the proto-oncogene c-cbl, a cytosolic and cytoskeletal protein containing multiple proline-rich motifs that are potential binding sites for proteins containing Src homology 3 (SH3) domains. We report here that in cultured Jurkat T cells, Cbl is coprecipitated with antibody against the adapter protein Grb2. Upon activation of Jurkat T cells via the TCR-CD3 complex, we find that high-affinity binding of Cbl requires the N-terminal SH3 domain of GST-Grb2 fusion protein but after cross-linking of the TCR-CD3 and CD4 receptors, Cbl binds equally to its SH2 domain. Grb2 antisera also precipitated p85 from serum-starved cells, while TCR activation increased p85 and tyrosine-phosphorylated Cbl but not Cbl protein in Grb2 immunocomplexes. Phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase activity was immunoprecipitated from serum-starved cells with Cbl and to a lesser extent with Grb2 antisera, and TCR cross-linking increased this activity severalfold. The PI 3-kinase activity associated with Cbl amounted to 5 to 10% of the total cellular activity that could be precipitated by p85 antisera. The Ras exchange factor Son-of-sevenless 1 (Sos-1) was not found in anti-Cbl immunoprecipitates from activated cells, and Cbl was not detectable in anti-Sos-1 precipitates, supporting the likelihood that Sos-Grb2 and Cbl-Grb2 are present as distinct complexes. Taken together, these data suggest that Cbl function in Jurkat T cells involves its constitutive association with Grb2 and its recruitment of PI 3-kinase in response to TCR activation.

The c-cbl gene was cloned as the cellular homolog of the v-cbl oncogene that is the transforming component of a murine tumorigenic retrovirus, CAS NS-1, though the biological roles of c-Cbl remain to be elucidated. We have previously reported that c-Cbl is implicated in the signal transduction triggered by granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor or erythropoietin in hematopoietic cells. Here, we observed tyrosine phosphorylation of C-cbl in cells expressing epidermal growth factor receptor depending on EGF stimulation and in v-src transformed cells. Furthermore, c-Cbl was revealed to associate with v-Src in vivo. By means of binding experiments using glutathione S-transferase fusion proteins, we have found that the SH2 and SH3 domains of many proteins bind to c-Cbl. These findings strongly suggest that c-Cbl is implicated in a wide variety of signal transduction pathways, including those of EGF receptor and Src protein, as well as in the signaling pathways of hematopoietic cells.

Crk is a Src homology 2 (SH2)/Src homology 3 (SH3)-containing adapter protein that has been implicated in intracellular signaling in fibroblasts and PC12 pheochromocytoma cells. Crk has been shown to bind to a tyrosine-phosphorylated protein of 116 kDa after TCR-mediated T cell activation. Here we demonstrate that the Crk-associated p116 phosphoprotein is not the Crk-associated substrate (Cas) but, rather, is a protein product of the c-cbl proto-oncogene. Whereas Cas was not tyrosine-phosphorylated after T cell activation, Cbl became highly phosphorylated. Crk immunoprecipitates from activated T cell lysates contain tyrosine-phosphorylated Cbl. This association is mediated by the SH2 domain of Crk, as evidenced by the interaction between Cbl and the fusion protein product of a glutathione S-transferase (GST) expression construct encoding the Crk-SH2 domain in vitro. Furthermore, phosphopeptide-binding studies revealed that the GST-Crk SH2 domain binds to a tyrosine-phosphorylated peptide corresponding to amino acids 770-781 of Cbl with high affinity. Cbl is a protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) substrate that becomes phosphorylated after engagement of numerous cell surface receptors including the TCR. Data revealed by genetic studies in the nematode, Caenorhabditis elegans, implicates a Cbl-like molecule, Sli-1, as a negative regulator of the Let-23-signaling pathway. Because the signal from the Let-23 pathway affects the activation status of the Let-60 (Ras homologue in C. elegans) pathway, the activation-dependent association between Crk and Cbl may represent another TCR-generated signal leading to Ras-related pathways.

We reported that ecto-NAD+ glycohydrolase activity induced upon differentiation of HL-60 cells with retinoic acid is localized on the extracellular domain of CD38 and that CD38 ligation by a specific monoclonal antibody, HB-7, is followed by rapid tyrosine phosphorylation of cellular proteins including a proto-oncogene product, Cbl. In the present study, we investigated intracellular signaling linked to the HB-7-induced Cbl phosphorylation in dibutyryl cAMP-treated THP-1 cells. The 85-kDa regulatory subunit (p85) of phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase was immunoprecipitated with anti-Cbl antibody in a manner dependent on the tyrosine phosphorylation of Cbl. PI 3-kinase activity was also observed in the immunoprecipitated fractions containing tyrosine-phosphorylated Cbl. The phosphorylated form of Cbl, which had been separated from the CD38-stimulated cells, was capable of directly binding to a recombinant p85 fused to glutathione S-transferase. Thus, the direct association of tyrosine-phosphorylated Cbl with PI 3-kinase, possibly leading to the kinase activation, appeared to be involved in intracellular signaling caused by the CD38 ligation.

Grb2/Ash and Shc are the adapter proteins that link tyrosine-kinase receptors to Ras and make tyrosine-kinase functionally associated with receptors and Ras in fibroblasts and hematopoietic cells. Grb2/Ash and Shc have the SH3, SH2, or phosphotyrosine binding domains. These domains bind to proteins containing proline-rich regions or tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins and contribute to the association of Grb2/Ash and Shc with other signaling molecules. However, there could remain unidentified signaling molecules that physically and functionally interact with these adapter proteins and have biologically important roles in the signaling pathways. By using the GST fusion protein including the full length of Grb2/Ash, we have found that c-Cbl and an unidentified 135-kD protein (pp135) are associated with Grb2/Ash. We have also found that they become tyrosine-phosphorylated by treatment of a human leukemia cell line, UT-7, with granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF). We have purified the pp135 by using GST-Grb2/Ash affinity column and have isolated the full-length complementary DNA (cDNA) encoding the pp135 using a cDNA probe, which was obtained by the degenerate polymerase chain reaction based on a peptide sequence of the purified pp135. The cloned cDNA has 3,958 nucleotides that contain a single long open reading frame of 3,567 nucleotides, encoding a 1,189 amino acid protein with a predicted molecular weight of approximately 133 kD. The deduced amino acid sequence reveals that pp135 is a protein that has one SH2, one SH3, and one proline-rich domain. The pp135, which contains two motifs conserved among the inositol polyphosphate-5-phosphatase proteins, was shown to have the inositol polyphosphate-5-phosphatase activity. The pp135 was revealed to associate constitutively with Grb2/Ash and inducibly with Shc using UT-7 cells stimulated with GM-CSF. In the cell lines derived from human chronic myelogenous leukemia, pp135 was constitutively tyrosine-phosphorylated and associated with Shc and Bcr-Abl. These facts suggest that pp135 is a signaling molecule that has a unique enzymatic activity and should play an important role in the signaling pathway triggered by GM-CSF and in the transformation of hematopoietic cells caused by Bcr-Abl.

The human proto-oncogene product c-Cbl and a similar protein in Caenorhabditis elegans (Sli-1) contain a proline-rich COOH-terminal region that binds Src homology 3 (SH3) domains of proteins such as the adapter Grb2. Cb1-Grb2 complexes can be recruited to tyrosine-phosphorylated epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptors through the SH2 domain of Grb2. Here we identify by molecular cloning a Drosophila cDNA encoding a protein (Drosophila Cbl [D-Cbl]) that shows high sequence similarity to the N-terminal region of human c-Cbl but lacks proline-rich sequences and fails to bind Grb2. Nonetheless, in COS-1 cells, expression of hemagglutinin epitope-tagged D-Cbl results in its coimmunoprecipitation with EGF receptors in response to EGF. EGF also caused tyrosine phosphorylation of D-Cbl in such cells, but no association of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase was detected in assays using anti-p85 antibody. A point mutation in D-Cbl (G305E) that suppresses the negative regulation of LET-23 by the Cbl homolog Sli-1 in C. elegans prevented tyrosine phosphorylation of D-Cbl as well as binding to the liganded EGF receptor in COS-1 cells. Colocalization of EGF receptors with both endogenous c-Cbl or expressed D-Cbl in endosomes of EGF-treated COS-1 cells is also demonstrated by immunofluorescence microscopy. In lysates of adult transgenic Drosophila melanogaster, GST-DCbl binds to the tyrosine-phosphorylated 150-kDa torso-DER chimeric receptor. Expression of D-Cbl directed by the sevenless enhancer in intact Drosophila compromises severely the development of the R7 photoreceptor neuron. These data suggest that despite the lack of Grb2 binding sites, D-Cbl functions as a negative regulator of receptor tyrosine kinase signaling in the Drosophila eye by a mechanism that involves its association with EGF receptors or other tyrosine kinases.

Grb2/Ash is composed of one SH2 and two SH3 domains and functions as an adapter linking tyrosine-kinase receptors and Ras in fibroblasts. The SH2 domain binds to tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins and the SH3 domain binds to protein containing proline-rich regions. However, the mechanisms of signal transduction through Grb2/Ash in hematopoietic cells are still unclear. By means of the binding experiments using the GST fusion protein including the full length Grb2/Ash, we have found that Shc and unidentified 130-kDa and 135-kDa proteins are associated with Grb2/Ash and that they are tyrosine-phosphorylated by treatment with granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and erythropoietin (EPO) in a human leukemia cell line UT-7. We have purified the 130-kDa protein (pp 130) using GST-GRB2/Ash affinity column. The amino-acid sequence analysis showed that the pp130 was identical to the human c-cbl proto-oncogene product (c-Cbl). c-Cbl constitutively binds to the SH3 domain of Grb2/Ash both in vitro and in vivo but not to the SH2 domain of Grb2/Ash. Moreover, c-Cbl (pp 130) becomes tyrosine-phosphorylated rapidly and transiently depending on GM-CSF and EPO stimulation. However, we could not find the homologous regions with guanine nucleotide exchange factors or GTPase-activating proteins in the c-cbl gene. These findings strongly suggest that c-Cbl is implicated in the signal transduction of GM-CSF and EPO in hematopoietic cells, and c-Cbl and Grb2/Ash might also transduce a signal that is different from the signal leading to Ras regulation. Recently, we have shown that the proto-oncogene vav product (Vav) is also tyrosine-phosphorylated by treatment with GM-CSF and EPO and is constitutively associated with the SH3 domain of Grb2/Ash in UT-7. Another guanine nucleotide exchange factor Sos is also associated with Grb2/Ash in UT-7. It has been reported that Vav has guanine nucleotide exchange activity and activates Ras in vitro and in vivo. These data suggest that tyrosine kinases, the adapter Grb2/Ash, and the guanine nucleotide exchange factor Vav and Sos are members of a signaling pathway leading to Ras activation in hematopoietic cells.

We have observed previously the co-immunoprecipitation of the p85 subunit of phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI3K) and SHP2 in murine lymphohemopoietic cells after stimulation with interleukin-3. We have investigated this interaction in more detail and now report the identification of a potentially novel 100-kDa protein (termed p100), which is inducibly phosphorylated on tyrosine after interleukin-3 treatment and which co-immunoprecipitates with both p85 PI3K and SHP2. The Src homology region 2 domains of both p85 and SHP2 appear to mediate their interactions with p100. Sequential precipitation analyses suggest that these interactions are direct and do not involve Grb2, and that the same p100 protein, or a portion of it, interacts with both p85 and SHP2, implying that p100 may serve to link these two proteins. Far Western blotting with both full-length p85 and isolated p85 Src homology region 2 domains supports this view. Interestingly, p100 also appears to be a substrate for the SHP2 phosphatase activity. In addition, p100 is precipitated by Grb2-glutathione S-transferase fusion proteins, an interaction largely mediated by the Grb2 SH3 domains. p100 appears to be distinct from JAK2, Vav, STAT5, and c-Cbl. Although largely cytosolic, p100 can be detected associated with SHP2 and PI3K in crude membrane fractions after interleukin-3 stimulation. We propose that p100 plays a role as an adaptor molecule, linking PI3K and SHP2 in IL-3 signaling.
