The TrkB receptor protein-tyrosine kinase is a receptor for brain-derived neurotrophic factor and neurotrophin-3. In response to brain-derived neurotrophic factor and neurotrophin-3 treatment, TrkB expressed exogenously in Rat-2 cells is rapidly phosphorylated on tyrosine residues. At least 2 regions of TrkB contain phosphorylated tyrosines. The major sites of autophosphorylation are in the region containing Tyr-670, Tyr-674, and Tyr-675, which lies in the kinase domain and corresponds by sequence homology to the Tyr-416 autophosphorylation site in p60c-Src. Tyr-785, which lies just to the COOH-terminal side of the kinase domain in a relatively short tail characteristic of the Trk family of protein-tyrosine kinase receptors, is also phosphorylated in response to neurotrophin-3 treatment. The sequence around Tyr-785 fits a consensus sequence for binding phospholipase C-gamma 1. The simplest interpretation of these results is that, in response to neurotrophin binding, at least two and perhaps all three of the tyrosines in the Tyr-670/674/675 region are autophosphorylated independently, and Tyr-785 is autophosphorylated in vivo. Following activation of TrkB, phospholipase C-gamma 1 is phosphorylated on Tyr-783, Tyr-771, and Tyr-1254. Phospholipase C-gamma 1 also forms a complex with TrkB in response to neurotrophin-3 treatment, consistent with the possibility that one of the TrkB autophosphorylation sites provides a binding site for the phospholipase C-gamma 1 SH2 domains, as is the case for other receptor protein-tyrosine kinases. We conclude that phospholipase C-gamma 1 is directly phosphorylated by TrkB. Since phosphorylation of Tyr-783 and Tyr-1254 results in activation of phospholipase C-gamma 1, we predict that neurotrophin-3 leads to activation of phospholipase C-gamma 1 following binding to TrkB in Rat-2 cells.

We have isolated cDNA clones encoding Tyro 10, a novel receptor protein-tyrosine kinase (PTK) whose catalytic domain exhibits significant similarity to the Trk family of neurotrophin receptors (Lai & Lemke, 1991). We find that the Tyro 10 gene is widely expressed, both within and outside the nervous system, and in both developing and mature neural tissue. The primary structure of Tyro 10, deduced from cDNA sequence, defines a new sub-family of receptor PTKs. Although the Tyro 10 kinase domain is more closely related to the equivalent domains of Trk, TrkB and TrkC than to the catalytic domains of other receptor PTKs, it is less closely related to these Trk domains than they are to each other. More significantly, the Tyro 10 extracellular (ligand binding) domain is not structurally related to the extracellular domains of the Trk receptors, but instead bears homology to cell surface mediators of protein-protein interactions, including blood coagulation Factors V and VIII, and the neuronal recognition protein A5. These appear to be structural features of a distinct receptor PTK sub-family, in that they are also found in the recently-described discoidin domain receptor (DDR).

Using the polymerase chain reaction with primers corresponding to conserved regions in the kinase domain of protein-tyrosine kinases, we amplified segments of several protein-tyrosine kinase genes from Hydra vulgaris, a member of the ancient metazoan phylum Cnidaria. Characterization of cDNA clones for one of these genes, HTK16, revealed that it encodes a non-receptor protein-tyrosine kinase with two SH2 domains but no SH3 domain. In this regard the predicted HTK16 protein resembles two mammalian non-receptor protein-tyrosine kinases, the products of the ZAP-70 and syk genes. However, the HTK16 protein contains five ankyrin-like repeats, a structural motif which has not previously been found in protein-tyrosine kinases. The HTK16 protein also contains a potential tyrosine phosphorylation site in its carboxyl-terminal tail which resembles the phosphorylation site in members of the src family. RNA hybridization analysis indicates that the HTK16 gene is expressed in epithelial cells, cells which also express the Hydra homologue of the src protein. Our finding of the HTK16 gene in Hydra indicates that diversification of genes encoding non-receptor protein-tyrosine kinases was a very early event in metazoan evolution.

A protein ligand for the ECK receptor protein-tyrosine kinase has been isolated by using the extracellular domain (ECK-X) of the receptor as an affinity reagent. Initially, concentrated cell culture supernatants were screened for receptor binding activity using immobilized ECK-X in a surface plasmon resonance detection system. Subsequently, supernatants from selected cell lines were fractionated directly by receptor affinity chromatography, resulting in the single-step purification of B61, a protein previously identified as the product of an early response gene induced by tumour necrosis factor-alpha. We report here that recombinant B61 induces autophosphorylation of ECK in intact cells, consistent with B61 being an authentic ligand for ECK. ECK is a member of a large orphan receptor protein-tyrosine kinase family headed by EPH, and we suggest that ligands for other members of this family will be related to B61, and can be isolated in the same way.

We studied the abundance, subcellular distribution of a non-receptor protein-tyrosine kinase p72syk (Taniguchi, T., Kobayashi, T., Kondo, J., Takahashi, K., Nakamura, H., Suzuki, J., Nagai, K., Yamada, T., Nakamura, S., and Yamamura, H. (1991) J. Biol. Chem. 266, 15790-15796) in porcine polymorphonuclear neutrophils and the activation upon the stimulation with concanavalin A. The abundance was about 0.1% of total proteins and mainly distributed in the particulate fraction. Upon concanavalin A stimulation, the activity of p72syk increased within 30 s, attained to the maximum level at 1 min, and then returned to the basal level within 6 min. This activation was observed in a dose-dependent manner and abrogated by simultaneous addition of methyl alpha-mannopyranoside. When both extra- and intracellular Ca2+ were depleted, the activation of p72syk was still persistent; in contrast, the deactivation process was completely abrogated even at 6 min after stimulation. The replenishment of Ca2+ in the presence of A23187 resulted in a similar deactivation pattern as seen in the Ca(2+)-rich condition. In addition, genistein and herbimycin A, potent protein-tyrosine-kinase inhibitors, were capable of reducing concanavalin A-evoked p72syk activation and Ca2+ mobilization as well as the aggregation and lysozyme release. Furthermore, A23187-induced Ca2+ accumulation in inhibitor-treated cells resulted in the restoration of those cellular responses. These lines of evidence suggest that p72syk is activated with concanavalin A in a Ca(2+)-independent manner, participating in a mechanism of Ca2+ recruitment, and negatively regulated by a feedback mechanism through Ca2+ in neutrophils.

Temperature-sensitive mutations in the avian sarcoma virus UR2 oncogene ros, encoding a receptor protein-tyrosine kinase (PTK), were identified. The Ala385-->Gly change mapping within the highly conserved RDLAARN motif in the Ros kinase domain was responsible for the temperature-sensitive phenotype. Based on the sequence homology of all known protein kinases and the crystalline structure of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase, this conserved region probably represents the PTK catalytic loop. The same mutation when introduced into the human insulin and insulin-like growth factor I receptors made these PTKs temperature sensitive in both biological function and kinase activity. Our results support the presumed catalytic role of this highly conserved sequence in PTKs. Due to its highly conserved nature, we predict that the same mutation would probably confer temperature sensitivity on other PTKs.

The tyrosines in the cytoplasmic domain of an oncogenic human insulin-like growth factor I receptor (gag-IGFR) were systematically mutated to phenylalanines to investigate the role of those tyrosines in the enzymatic and biological function of the gag-IGFR. Our results indicate that tyrosines 1131, 1135, 1136, and 1221 are important for the receptor protein-tyrosine kinase (PTK) activity. However, mutation of Tyr-1136 only slightly affects the kinase activity but dramatically reduces the transforming ability and overall substrate phosphorylation, in particular, annexin II, which is strongly phosphorylated by the gag-IGFR but not by the Phe-1136 mutant. Single mutation of either Tyr-943 or Tyr-950 resulted in significantly reduced phosphorylation of the receptor but not on its PTK activity or transforming ability. Tyr-950 together with its surrounding sequence is involved in mediating the interaction between the gag-IGFR and insulin receptor substrate 1. Our data also suggest that Tyr-1316 is involved in phosphorylation of phospholipase C-gamma, which is, however, not important for cell transforming activity. Overall, our study has identified several tyrosine residues of IGFR important for its PTK activity and substrate interaction. The transforming potential of the gag-IGFR correlates well with its ability to phosphorylate overall cellular substrates and to activate phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase via insulin receptor substrate 1.

c-Abl is a non-receptor protein-tyrosine kinase lacking a clear physiological role. A clue to its normal function is suggested by overexpression of Abl in fibroblasts, which leads to inhibition of cell growth. This effect requires tyrosine kinase activity and the Abl C-terminus. c-Abl is localized to the cell nucleus, where it can bind DNA, and interacts with the retinoblastoma protein, a potential mediator of the growth-inhibitory effect. Nuclear localization of Abl can be directed by a pentalysine nuclear localization signal in the Abl C-terminus. Here, we have identified two additional basic motifs in the Abl C-terminus, either of which can function independently of the pentalysine signal to localize Abl to the nucleus. Using a quantitative transfection assay, we show that both c-Abl and transforming Abl proteins inhibit entry into S phase and this effect is absolutely dependent on nuclear localization. Further, we demonstrate that the Abl cytostatic effect requires both the Rb and p53 tumor suppressor gene products. These results indicate that Abl inhibits cell proliferation by interacting with central elements of the cell cycle control apparatus in the nucleus, and suggest a direct connection between p53 and Rb in this growth-inhibitory pathway.

Molecules containing Src-homology 2 (SH2) and Src-homology 3 (SH3) domains are critical components of signal transduction pathways that serve to relay signals originating from the cell surface to the interior of the cell. Src-like adapter protein (SLAP) is a recently described adapter protein that binds activated the Eck receptor protein-tyrosine kinase. Although SLAP bears a striking homology to the SH3 and SH2 domains of the Src family of nonreceptor tyrosine kinases, it does not contain a tyrosine kinase catalytic domain. In this report, the Slap gene was mapped by linkage analysis to mouse chromosome 15, while its putative human homolog (SLA) was identified and mapped to human 8q22.3-qter using a panel of somatic cell hybrids.

The human BCR gene encodes a protein with serine/threonine kinase activity and regulatory domains for the small G-proteins RAC and CDC42. Previous work in our laboratory has established that BCR is a substrate for c-FES, a non-receptor tyrosine kinase linked to myeloid growth and differentiation. Tyrosine phosphorylation led to the association of BCR with the RAS guanine nucleotide exchange complex GRB2-SOS in vivo via the GRB2 SH2 domain, linking BCR to RAS signaling (Maru, Y., Peters, K. L., Afar, D. E. H., Shibuya, M., Witte, O. N., and Smithgall, T. E. (1995) Mol. Cell. Biol. 15, 835-842). In the present study, we demonstrate that BCR Tyr-246 and at least one of the closely spaced tyrosine residues, Tyr-279, Tyr-283, and Tyr-289 (3Y cluster), are phosphorylated by FES both in vitro and in 32Pi-labeled cells. Mutagenesis of BCR Tyr-177 to Phe completely abolished FES-induced BCR binding to the GRB2 SH2 domain, identifying Tyr-177 as an additional phosphorylation site for FES. Co-expression of BCR and FES in human 293T cells stimulated the tyrosine autophosphorylation of FES. By contrast, tyrosine phosphorylation of BCR by FES suppressed BCR serine/threonine kinase activity toward the 14-3-3 protein and BCR substrate, BAP-1. These data show that tyrosine phosphorylation by FES affects the interaction of BCR with multiple signaling partners and suggest a general role for BCR in non-receptor protein-tyrosine kinase regulation and signal transduction.
