Chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) and some acute lymphoblastic leukemias (ALL) are caused by the t(9;22) chromosome translocation, which produces the constitutively activated BCR/ABL tyrosine kinase. When introduced into factor dependent hematopoietic cell lines, BCR/ABL induces the tyrosine phosphorylation of many cellular proteins. One prominent BCR/ABL substrate is p120CBL, the cellular homolog of the v-Cbl oncoprotein. In an effort to understand the possible contribution of p120CBL to transformation by BCR/ABL, we looked for cellular proteins which associate with p120CBL in hematopoietic cell lines transformed by BCR/ABL. In addition to p210BCR/ABL and c-ABL, p120CBL coprecipitated with an 85 kDa phosphoprotein, which was identified as the p85 subunit of PI3K. Anti-p120CBL immunoprecipitates from BCR/ABL-transformed, but not from untransformed, cell lines contained PI3K lipid kinase activity. Interestingly, the adaptor proteins CRKL and c-CRK were also found in these complexes. In vitro binding studies indicated that the SH2 domains of CRKL and c-CRK bound directly to p120CBL, while the SH3 domains of c-CRK and CRKL bound to BCR/ABL and c-ABL. The N-terminal and the C-terminal SH2 and the SH3 domain of p85PI3K bound directly in vitro to p120CBL. The ABL-SH2, but not ABL-SH3, could also bind to p120CBL. These data suggest that BCR/ABL may induce the formation of multimeric complexes of signaling proteins which include p120CBL, PI3K, c-CRK or CRKL, c-ABL and BCR/ABL itself.

We have shown previously that cell adhesion or platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) promotes the in vivo association of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) with phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase. In vitro experiments indicated that this interaction was mediated by the p85 subunit of PI 3-kinase and dependent on the tyrosine phosphorylation of FAK. Here we report data suggesting that the major autophosphorylation site of FAK (Tyr-397) is the binding site for the SH2 domains of p85 in vitro and is also required for the association of FAK with PI 3-kinase in vivo. We also show that Tyr-397 is responsible for the increased FAK:PI 3-kinase association upon PDGF stimulation, implying that no additional site of FAK was involved in its binding to PI 3-kinase after PDGF stimulation. Finally, we present evidence that the interaction of PI 3-kinase with Tyr-397 of FAK stimulates its activity. Together, these results suggest that FAK activation and autophosphorylation at Tyr-397 may lead to its association with PI 3-kinase through the SH2 domains of p85, which can subsequently activate PI 3-kinase during cell adhesion.

Angiotensin II (AII), acting via its G-protein linked receptor, is an important regulator of cardiac, vascular, and renal function. Following injection of AII into rats, we find that there is also a rapid tyrosine phosphorylation of the major insulin receptor substrates 1 and 2 (IRS-1 and IRS-2) in the heart. This phenomenon appears to involve JAK2 tyrosine kinase, which associates with the AT1 receptor and IRS-1/IRS-2 after AII stimulation. AII-induced phosphorylation leads to binding of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) to IRS-1 and IRS-2; however, in contrast to other ligands, AII injection results in an acute inhibition of both basal and insulin-stimulated PI 3-kinase activity. The latter occurs without any reduction in insulin receptor or IRS phosphorylation or in the interaction of the p85 and p110 subunits of PI 3-kinase with each other or with IRS-1/IRS-2. These effects of AII are inhibited by AT1 receptor antagonists. Thus, there is direct cross-talk between insulin and AII signaling pathways at the level of both tyrosine phosphorylation and PI 3-kinase activation. These interactions may play an important role in the association of insulin resistance, hypertension, and cardiovascular disease.

Interaction of the cell surface integrin receptors with extracellular matrix proteins results in the activation of intracellular signaling pathways, including activation of the p42/p44 mitogen-activated protein kinases. The protein tyrosine kinase focal adhesion kinase, or FAK, is linked to integrin signaling and interacts with several molecules involved in signal transduction. Here we report that exposure of fibroblast cells to extracellular matrix proteins activates the p70/p85 ribosomal S6 kinase (S6K) pathway in a ligand dependent manner. Treatment of cells with inhibitors of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, or FRAP (FKBP 12/rapamycin-associated protein) blocks integrin-mediated activation of S6K. In contrast to the integrin-directed activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinases, cytochalasin D treatment does not inhibit S6K activation. Treatment with the protein tyrosine kinase inhibitors herbimycin A and genistein completely blocks S6K activation, indicating a requirement for tyrosine kinase activity. Overexpression of the COOH-terminal noncatalytic domain of FAK, FRNK (FAK-related non-kinase) in chick embryo cells results in a significant reduction in the integrin-mediated activation of S6K and a concomitant reduction in FAK tyrosine phosphorylation. These results indicate at least a partial requirement for FAK in the S6K activation pathway.

Integrin crosslinking on human B cells induces tyrosine phosphorylation of a set of proteins ranging from 105 to 130 kDa, among which is the focal adhesion kinase p125FAK. Here we show that the c-CBL protooncogene product p120c-CBL is a component of these substrates. beta 1 integrin stimulation of p120c-CBL phosphorylation was observed in both transformed and normal human B cells, and was inhibited by prior treatment of cells with cytochalasin B, which disrupts the actin network. In contrast, tyrosine phosphorylation of p120c-CBL following crosslinking of the B cell antigen receptor (BCR) was not affected by cytochalasin B. Integrin stimulation of the promegakaryocytic cell line MO7e also led to a cytoskeleton-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation of p120c-CBL. In MO7e cells, this stimulation was induced by ligation of either beta 1 or beta 2 integrin, whereas only by ligation of beta 1 integrin in B cells. Tyrosine phosphorylation of p120c-CBL links phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI-3K) with the BCR signaling machinery. Although the p85 subunit of PI-3K was increased in p120c-CBL immunoprecipitates from BCR-stimulated B cells, this association was only minimally increased by beta 1 integrin ligation. The function of p120c-CBL remains unknown; however, its interactions in vitro and in vivo with Src homology 2 and 3 (SH2 and SH3) domain-containing proteins suggest that p120c-CBL has a significant function in signal transduction pathways, and therefore may play a role in integrin signaling in lymphoid and hematopoietic cells.

Prolactin (PRL) has been demonstrated to induce tyrosine phosphorylation and activation of the cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase JAK2. The present study represents an initial effort to identify the phosphorylation repertoire of the PRL receptor (PRLR). For this purpose we have modified the rat PRLR cDNA to encode an additional N-terminal epitope specifically designed to allow the rapid purification of the PRLR and associated proteins from transfected cells. The Flag-tagged PRLR was stably expressed in the human 293 cell line. PRL induced tyrosine phosphorylation of proteins of 85, 95, and 185 kDa from 10 to 30 min after PRL stimulation. Immunoblot analysis of immunoprecipitation indicates that p85 corresponds to the 85-kDa regulatory subunit of phosphatidylinositol (PI)-3' kinase, p95 to PRLR, and p185 to insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS-1). Both PI-3' kinase and IRS-1 appear to associate with PRLR in a PRL-dependent manner. These results thus indicate that kinases other than JAK2, namely PI-3' kinase, are activated by PRL.

The vav proto-oncogene product (Vav), which is specifically expressed in hematopoietic cells, contains multiple structural motifs commonly used by intracellular signaling molecules. Although a variety of stimuli including erythropoietin (Epo) have been shown to tyrosine phosphorylate Vav, little is known about the Vav signal transduction pathway. Here, we have investigated the role of Vav in the Epo signaling pathway by characterizing its interaction with other proteins, using the human Epo-responsive cell line, F-36P. Immunoprecipitation and immunoblot analyses have demonstrated that Vav was associated with the Epo receptor (EpoR) in an Epo-independent manner and was tyrosine-phosphorylated after Epo stimulation. Furthermore, two phosphotyrosine proteins (pp70 and pp100) co-immunoprecipitated with the regulatory subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-kinase) (p85) were identified as EpoR and Vav, respectively. The interaction between Vav and p85 was shown to be mediated through the SH2 domains of p85 by an in vitro binding assay and confirmed by the presence of in vitro PI3-kinase activity associated with Vav. Treatment of the cells with antisense-vav and -p85 abrogated Epo-induced cell proliferation and PI3-kinase activity. Finally, we found that JAK2 was associated with Vav in vivo and that Vav could be tyrosine-phosphorylated by activated JAK2 in vitro. These results suggest the possible role of JAK2 for tyrosine phosphorylation of Vav and involvement of Vav and PI3-kinase in Epo-induced proliferative signals.

Cell attachment to fibronectin stimulates the integrin-dependent interaction of p85-associated phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase with integrin-dependent focal adhesion kinase (FAK) as well as activation of the Ras/mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase pathway. However, it is not known if this PI 3-kinase-FAK interaction increases the synthesis of the 3-phosphorylated phosphoinositides (3-PPIs) or what role, if any, is played by activated PI 3-kinase in integrin signaling. We demonstrate here the integrin-dependent accumulation of the PI 3-kinase products, PI 3,4-bisphosphate [PI(3,4)P2] and PI(3,4,5)P3, as well as activation of AKT kinase, a serine/threonine kinase that can be stimulated by binding of PI(3,4)P2. The PI 3-kinase inhibitors wortmannin and LY294002 significantly decreased the integrin-induced accumulation of the 3-PPIs and activation of AKT kinase, without having significant effects on the levels of PI(4,5)P2 or tyrosine phosphorylation of paxillin. These inhibitors also reduced cell adhesion/spreading onto fibronectin but had no effect on attachment to polylysine. Interestingly, integrin-mediated Erk-2, Mek-1, and Raf-1 activation, but not Ras-GTP loading, was inhibited at least 80% by wortmannin and LY294002. In support of the pharmacologic results, fibronectin activation of Erk-2 and AKT kinases was completely inhibited by overexpression of a dominant interfering p85 subunit of PI 3-kinase. We conclude that integrin-mediated adhesion to fibronectin results in the accumulation of the PI 3-kinase products PI(3,4)P2 and PI(3,4,5)P3 as well as the PI 3-kinase-dependent activation of the kinases Raf-1, Mek-1, Erk-2, and AKT and that PI 3-kinase may function upstream of Raf-1 but downstream of Ras in integrin activation of Erk-2 MAP and AKT kinases.

The Tec family of tyrosine kinases are involved in signals emanating from cytokine receptors, antigen receptors, and other lymphoid cell surface receptors. One family member, ITK (inducible T cell kinase), is involved in T cell activation and can be activated by the T cell receptor and the CD28 cell surface receptor. This stimulation of tyrosine phosphorylation and activation of ITK can be mimicked by the Src family kinase Lck. We have explored the mechanism of this requirement for Src family kinases in the activation of ITK. We found that coexpression of ITK and Src results in increased membrane association, tyrosine phosphorylation and activation of ITK, which could be blocked by inhibitors of the lipid kinase phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) as well as overexpression of the p85 subunit of PI 3-kinase. Removal of the Pleckstrin homology domain (PH) of ITK resulted in a kinase that could no longer be induced to localize to the membrane or be activated by Src. The PH of ITK was also able to bind inositol phosphates phosphorylated at the D3 position. Membrane targeting of ITK without the PH recovered its ability to be activated by Src. These results suggest that ITK can be activated by a combination of Src and PI 3-kinase.

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.
