Activated pp60c-src has been implicated in a number of human malignancies including colon carcinoma and breast adenocarcinoma. Association of the src SH2 domain with tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins plays a role in src-mediated signal transduction. Inhibitors of src SH2 domain-phosphoprotein interactions are, thus, of great interest in defining the role(s) of src in signal transduction pathways. To facilitate such studies, an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed to detect inhibitors of src SH2-phosphoprotein interactions. This assay measures inhibition of binding of a fusion construct (glutathione S-transferase src SH3-SH2) with autophosphorylated epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase domain. Activities of phosphopeptide segments derived from potential src SH2 cognate phosphoprotein partners were determined, with the focal adhesion kinase-derived segment VSETDDY*AEIIDE yielding the highest inhibitory activity. Structure activity studies starting from acetyl (Ac)-Y*EEIE have identified Ac-Y*Y*Y*IE as the most active compound screened in the ELISA. This compound is at least 20-fold more active than the parent peptide Ac-Y*EEIE. A high resolution (2 A) crystal structure of human src SH2 complexed with Ac-Y*EEIE was obtained and provided a useful framework for understanding the structure-activity relationships. Additionally, Ac-Y*EEIE was able to block interactions between src and its cellular phosphoprotein partners in vanadate-treated cell lysates from MDA-MB-468 breast carcinoma cells. However, it is unable to abrogate proliferation of MDA-MB-468 cells in culture, presumably because of poor cell penetration and/or lability of the phosphate group on tyrosine.

We have previously described pp60c-src SH2 mutants that are host-range-dependent for cell transformation; most of these mutants can transform CEF cells but not NIH3T3 cells, and other transform NIH3T3 cells more efficiently than CEF (Hirai and Varmus, 1990c). In an attempt to understand the molecular basis of these phenotypes, we analysed the ability of mutant SH2 domains in GST fusion proteins to bind to tyrosine phosphorylated proteins in lysates from CEF and NIH3T3 cells. The relative affinity of mutated versions of the SH2 domain for phosphotyrosine-containing proteins from CEF and NIH3T3 cells was compared with the relative ability of the mutant Src proteins to transform the two cell types. While the affinity of the SH2 domain for phosphotyrosine-containing proteins was closely correlated with transformation in NIH3T3 cells, there was no correlation between phosphotyrosine binding and transformation of CEF cells, and none of the host range mutant SH2 domains showed significant differences in their ability to bind phosphotyrosine-containing proteins from lysates from either cell type. In addition, the SH3 domain was shown to augment the capacity of mutant SH2 domain to bind phosphotyrosine-containing proteins.

CSK is a predominantly cytosolic protein-tyrosine kinase (PTK) that negatively regulates Src family PTKs by phosphorylation of a conserved tyrosine near their C termini. Little is known about how CSK itself is regulated. On the basis of immunofluorescence studies, a model has been proposed that when c-Src is activated, it is redistributed to podosomes, in which substrates become phosphorylated, creating binding sites for CSK. CSK is recruited to these sites of c-Src activation via its SH2 and SH3 domains and is then in a position to downregulate c-Src activity (B. W. Howell and J. A. Cooper, Mol. Cell. Biol. 14:5402-5411, 1994). To identify phosphotyrosine (P.Tyr)-containing proteins that may mediate translocation of CSK due to c-Src activation, we have examined the whole spectrum of P.Tyr-containing proteins that associate with CSK in v-Src NIH 3T3 cells by anti-P.Tyr immunoblotting. Nine P.Tyr-containing proteins coimmunoprecipitated with CSK from v-Src NIH 3T3 cells. One of these, an approximately 62-kDa protein, also associated with CSK in NIH 3T3 cells treated with vanadate prior to lysis and in NIH 3T3 cells expressing an activated c-Src mutant. This 62-kDa protein was shown to be identical to the GTPase-activating protein (GAP)-associated p62 (GAP-A.p62) protein. The interaction between CSK and GAP-A.p62 could be reconstituted in vitro with glutathione S-transferase fusion proteins containing full-length CSK or the CSK SH2 domain. Furthermore, our data show that CSK interacts directly with GAP.A-p62 and that the complex between the two proteins is localized in subcellular membrane or cytoskeletal fractions. Our results suggest that GAP-A.p62 may function as a docking protein and may mediate translocation of proteins, including GAP and CSK, to membrane or cytoskeletal regions upon c-Src activation.

The angiotensin II type-1 (AT1) receptor, a G protein-coupled receptor, lacks intrinsic kinase activity. However, recent data show that angiotensin II (Ang II) stimulates tyrosine phosphorylation of phospholipase C-gamma 1 (PLC-gamma 1), Stat91 (one of the signal transducers and activators of transcription), and paxillin in vascular smooth muscle cells. The tyrosine kinases responsible for these phosphorylation events are unknown. Src family kinases have been shown to phosphorylate PLC-gamma 1 and to be activated by G protein-coupled receptors. We hypothesized that pp60c-src associates with the AT1 receptor and is activated after Ang II stimulation of smooth muscle cells. We immunoprecipitated pp60c-src from Ang II-stimulated vascular smooth muscle cells and measured pp60c-src activity by autophosphorylation and by phosphorylation of enolase. Both assays demonstrated an approximately threefold increase in pp60c-src activity within 1 minute. A similar increase in Ang II-stimulated pp60c-src activity was observed in Chinese hamster ovary cells transfected with the AT1 receptor but not in untransfected cells. These data are the first to show that pp60c-src is activated by Ang II. To determine if pp60c-src associated with the AT1 receptor, the AT1 receptor was immunoprecipitated (with two different antibodies), and Western blots were performed with two different anti-pp60c-src antibodies. No pp60c-src was detected. In addition, direct interaction between the AT1 receptor and pp60c-src could not be demonstrated by using a glutathione S-transferase (GST)-AT1 fusion protein to bind proteins from cell lysates stimulated by Ang II.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

The protein-tyrosine kinase activity of pp60c-src (c-Src) is inhibited by phosphorylation of tyr527, within the c-Src c-terminal tail. Genetic and biochemical data have suggested that this negative regulation requires an intact Src homology 2 (SH2) domain. Since SH2 domains recognize phosphotyrosine, it is possible that these two non-catalytic domains associate, and thereby repress c-Src kinase activity. Consistent with this model, an isolated Src SH2 domain expressed in bacteria as a GST fusion protein bound in vitro to a synthetic phosphotyrosine-containing peptide modeled on the C-terminal 13 residues of the c-Src tail. Binding was absolutely dependent on phosphorylation of tyr527 in the tail peptide, and was modified by both the length and sequence of the peptide. Competition experiments indicated only a moderate binding affinity between the Src SH2 domain and the phosphorylated tail. A distinct phosphotyrosine-containing peptide previously identified as binding the Src SH2 domain with high affinity stimulated c-Src tyrosine kinase activity in vitro, possibly by competing with the endogenous tail phosphorylation site for binding to the SH2 domain. Indeed, this activation was competitively inhibited by purified bacterial Src SH2 domain. These data provide direct evidence that the c-Src tail has an intrinsic affinity for the Src SH2 domain, and suggest that such an interaction in the intact molecule contributes to maintaining c-Src in an inactive form.

Mammalian cells respond to ionizing radiation (IR) with cell cycle arrest, activation of DNA repair, and induction of early response genes. The present work has examined the involvement of Src-like protein-tyrosine kinases in the response of irradiated HL-60 myeloid leukemia cells. The results demonstrate little if any effect of IR on p59fyn, p56lck, and pp60c-src activity. In contrast, HL-60 cells responded to x-ray exposure with activation of p56/p53lyn. At a dose of 200 centigrays, induction of p56/p53lyn activity was detectable at 15 min. Doses as low as 50 centigrays were effective in activating p56/p53lyn. H2O2 and the scavenger N-acetylcysteine had no detectable effect on p56/p53lyn activation, while the protein-tyrosine kinase inhibitors, herbimycin and genistein, blocked induction by IR. The results also demonstrate that incubation of a glutathione S-transferase-Lyn fusion protein with lysates of irradiated HL-60 cells is associated with binding of the cell cycle regulatory protein, p34cdc2. The interaction of p56/p53lyn and p34cdc was confirmed in similar experiments with a glutathione S-transferase-Cdc2 fusion protein. Moreover, coimmunoprecipitation studies demonstrate the selective binding of activated p56/p53lyn to p34cdc2 in irradiated cells. These findings indicate that IR activates p56/p53lyn in HL-60 cells and that this tyrosine kinase may contribute to the regulation of p34cdc2.

The present studies have examined the effects of mitomycin C (MMC), a genotoxic alkylating agent, on the activation of Src-like protein tyrosine kinases in HL-60 myeloid leukemia cells. The results demonstrate no detectable induction of p59fyn or pp60c-src activity. The response of HL-60 cells to MMC however was associated with rapid activation of p56/p53lyn. Similar findings were obtained with other alkylating agents such as nitrogen mustard and cis-platinum. Activation of p56/p53lyn was associated with increased autophosphorylation on tyrosine and sensitivity to the tyrosine kinase inhibitors herbimycin A and genistein. Studies with a glutathione S-transferase-Lyn fusion protein were performed to explore the potential significance of p56/p53lyn activation. Analysis of the adsorbates demonstrates interaction of Lyn with the cell cycle regulatory protein, p34cdc2. Coimmunoprecipitation studies further confirmed the association of p56/p53lyn and p34cdc2 in MMC-treated cells. We also demonstrate that p34cdc2 undergoes increased phosphorylation on tyrosine following MMC exposure and that p56/p53lyn phosphorylates the Tyr-15 site of p34cdc2 in vitro. These findings indicate that the cellular response to MMC includes activation of p56/p53lyn and that this event may contribute to signals transduced by the DNA damage-dependent mitotic checkpoint.

The Src homology 3 (SH3) domain, located in the amino-terminal, noncatalytic half of pp60src, is highly conserved among members of the Src family of tyrosine kinases. SH3 domains have also been identified in a variety of proteins otherwise unrelated to protein-tyrosine kinases. The presence of SH3 domains in proteins with diverse functions suggests this domain may be important for directing protein-protein interactions necessary for protein function or cellular localization. To explore possible interactions between the SH3 domain and cellular proteins, we have established conditions for the isolation of proteins that bind in solution to the Src SH3 domain. A 67-amino acid fragment of c-Src containing either the entire glutathione S-transferase-SH3 domain (GST-SH3) or the SH3 domain from the neuronal form of c-Src (GST-SH3+) was expressed as a glutathione S-transferase fusion protein. The GST fusion proteins were incubated with lysates from [35S]methionine-labeled Balb/c 3T3 cells or v-Src-transformed Balb/c 3T3 cells. We found that GST-SH3, but not wild-type GST, specifically interacted with multiple cellular proteins, whereas GST-SH3+ only weakly associated with a small subset of these proteins. The majority of the SH3-binding proteins were found in particulate and detergent-insoluble cell fractions. Anti-phosphotyrosine immunoblots of the SH3-binding proteins revealed that several of the SH3-binding proteins are phosphorylated on tyrosine in v-Src-transformed cells. In addition, a number of the SH3-binding proteins were phosphorylated on serine and/or threonine in in vitro kinase assays, suggesting that one or more of the SH3-binding proteins has kinase activity. We identified paxillin, a vinculin-binding protein, as one of the Src SH3-binding proteins. This finding strongly supports the hypothesis that SH3 domains may be involved in subcellular localization of proteins to cytoskeleton and/or cellular membranes.

Focal adhesion kinase (FAK) is a nonreceptor protein-tyrosine kinase (PTK) that associates with integrin receptors and participates in extracellular matrix-mediated signal transduction events. We showed previously that the c-Src nonreceptor PTK and the Grb2 SH2/SH3 adaptor protein bound directly to FAK after fibronectin stimulation (D. D. Schlaepfer, S.K. Hanks, T. Hunter, and P. van der Geer, Nature [London] 372:786-791, 1994). Here, we present evidence that c-Src association with FAK is required for Grb2 binding to FAK. Using a tryptic phosphopeptide mapping approach, the in vivo phosphorylation of the Grb2 binding site on FAK (Tyr-925) was detected after fibronectin stimulation of NIH 3T3 cells and was constitutively phosphorylated in v-Src-transformed NIH 3T3 cells. In vitro, c-Src phosphorylated FAK Tyr-925 in a glutathione S-transferase-FAK C-terminal domain fusion protein, whereas FAK did not. Using epitope-tagged FAK constructs, transiently expressed in human 293 cells, we determined the effect of site-directed mutations on c-Src and Grb2 binding to FAK. Mutation of FAK Tyr-925 disrupted Grb2 binding, whereas mutation of the c-Src binding site on FAK (Tyr-397) disrupted both c-Src and Grb2 binding to FAK in vivo. These results support a model whereby Src-family PTKs are recruited to FAK and focal adhesions following integrin-induced autophosphorylation and exposure of FAK Tyr-397. Src-family binding and phosphorylation of FAK at Tyr-925 creates a Grb2 SH2-domain binding site and provides a link to the activation of the Ras signal transduction pathway. In Src-transformed cells, this pathway may be constitutively activated as a result of FAK Tyr-925 phosphorylation in the absence of integrin stimulation.

In many cells, stimulation of mitogen-activated protein kinases by both receptor tyrosine kinases and receptors that couple to pertussis toxin-sensitive heterotrimeric G proteins proceed via convergent signaling pathways. Both signals are sensitive to inhibitors of tyrosine protein kinases and require Ras activation via phosphotyrosine-dependent recruitment of Ras guanine nucleotide exchange factors. Receptor tyrosine kinase stimulation mediates ligand-induced receptor autophosphorylation, which creates the initial binding sites for SH2 domain-containing docking proteins. However, the mechanism whereby G protein-coupled receptors mediate the phosphotyrosine-dependent assembly of a mitogenic signaling complex is poorly understood. We have studied the role of Src family nonreceptor tyrosine kinases in G protein-coupled receptor-mediated tyrosine phosphorylation in a transiently transfected COS-7 cell system. Stimulation of Gi-coupled lysophosphatidic acid and alpha2A adrenergic receptors or overexpression of Gbeta1gamma2 subunits leads to tyrosine phosphorylation of the Shc adapter protein, which then associates with tyrosine phosphoproteins of approximately 130 and 180 kDa, as well as Grb2. The 180-kDa Shc-associated tyrosine phosphoprotein band contains both epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor and p185(neu). 3-5-fold increases in EGF receptor but not p185(neu) tyrosine phosphorylation occur following Gi-coupled receptor stimulation. Inhibition of endogenous Src family kinase activity by cellular expression of a dominant negative kinase-inactive mutant of c-Src inhibits Gbeta1gamma2 subunit-mediated and Gi-coupled receptor-mediated phosphorylation of both EGF receptor and Shc. Expression of Csk, which inactivates Src family kinases by phosphorylating the regulatory carboxyl-terminal tyrosine residue, has the same effect. The Gi-coupled receptor-mediated increase in EGF receptor phosphorylation does not reflect increased EGF receptor autophosphorylation, assayed using an autophosphorylation-specific EGF receptor monoclonal antibody. Lysophosphatidic acid stimulates binding of EGF receptor to a GST fusion protein containing the c-Src SH2 domain, and this too is blocked by Csk expression. These data suggest that Gbetagamma subunit-mediated activation of Src family nonreceptor tyrosine kinases can account for the Gi-coupled receptor-mediated tyrosine phosphorylation events that direct recruitment of the Shc and Grb2 adapter proteins to the membrane.
