We contrasted the protein kinase activities of pp60v-src, the transforming protein of Rous sarcoma virus, and its normal cellular homolog pp60c-src with respect to inhibition by P1,P4-di(adenosine-5')tetraphosphate by using the immune complex protein kinase assay. The concentration of P1,P4-di(adenosine-5')tetraphosphate required for 50% inhibition of pp60v-src kinase (1 microM) was found to be significantly lower than that required for inhibition of pp60c-src kinase (46 microM). Viral and cellular pp60src kinases differed to a lesser extent with respect to inhibition by adenosine-5'-tetraphosphate, di(guanosine-5')tetraphosphate, and ADP. No significant differences were found in the ATP Km values of pp60v-src (0.108 +/- 0.048 microM) and pp60c-src kinases (0.056 +/- 0.012 microM). These results demonstrate that the protein kinase activities of viral and cellular pp60src are functionally distinguishable, particularly on the basis of enhanced sensitivity of the viral enzyme to inhibition by P1,P4-di(adenosine-5')tetraphosphate. These functional differences are likely to be due to differences in the conformation of the active site and may be important for determining transformation potential.

The Rous sarcoma virus (RSV) oncogene product pp60src is known to trigger the acquisition of the transformed phenotype by phosphorylating host cell target molecule(s) at tyrosine residues. To identify phosphotyrosine-containing proteins, rabbit antibodies were raised against the synthetic hapten p-azobenzene-phosphonate (ABP) that specifically cross-reacts with phosphorylated tyrosine. By immuno-decoration of proteins extracted from RSV-transformed mouse fibroblasts and transferred to nitrocellulose sheets, phosphoproteins of 130, 70 and 60 kd were identified. These molecules were found to be associated with the cellular fraction insoluble in non-ionic detergent. Moreover, ABP antibodies precipitated detergent-insoluble proteins of 130, 70 and 60 kd, plus two additional components of 85 and 65 kd, that had been phosphorylated in vitro by [gamma-32P]ATP under conditions allowing the kinase reaction catalyzed by pp60src. Phosphoproteins of closely related mol. wts. were immunoprecipitated from RSV-transformed avian fibroblasts. The radioactivity co-migrated with authentic phosphotyrosine in two-dimensional chromatography. The 60-kd protein comigrated with pp60src, while the identity between the 130-kd protein and vinculin was disproved by the lack of cross-reaction with appropriate antisera. In transformed mouse and duck fibroblasts ABP antibodies, employed in indirect immunofluorescence microscopy, stained diffusely the cytoplasm and intensely decorated restricted areas of the ventral cell plasma membrane. These data show that antibodies reacting with phosphotyrosine may be usefully employed in the identification and in the intracellular localization of molecules that are potential targets of the pp60src protein kinase.

A monoclonal mouse antibody has been prepared against a synthetic peptide corresponding to the six carboxy-terminal amino acids (C' peptide) of the src gene product pp60v -src of Rous sarcoma virus (RSV). The antibody was able to precipitate pp60v -src and to bind pp60v -src kinase activity in a competition test, indicating that this peptide can serve as an antibody-binding site (epitope). Furthermore, the finding that three out of 28 pp60src-specific tumor-bearing rabbit (TBR) sera contained antibody against the C' peptide argues for an in vivo role for the carboxy terminus of pp60src. C' peptide-specific IgG was purified from one TBR serum using affinity chromatography, and was shown to precipitate significant amounts of pp60src, and bind most of the pp60src kinase activity from SRA, PrA, and B77-C strains of avian sarcoma virus (ASV), but not endogenous pp60c -src, a cellular homologue to the viral pp60v -src. Similar results were obtained with IgG isolated from a C' peptide immune rabbit serum. None of the three C' peptide-specific IgGs could serve as a phosphate acceptor in an immune complex protein kinase reaction.

Growth of a selected variant of A431 cells (clone 29) is stimulated by epidermal growth factor (EGF) in contrast to the growth inhibition caused by EGF in an unselected clone, A431(8). Twelve phosphoproteins from each clone were compared to determine whether unique EGF-dependent substrate phosphorylations might explain the cells' differing growth responses to EGF. Treatment of both clone 29 and A431(8) cells with EGF increased phosphorylation of the EGF receptor/kinase and six cellular proteins identified on 2-dimensional polyacrylamide gels. Four of these proteins (the EGF receptor/kinase and proteins of 36, 70, and 81 kd) contained phosphotyrosine in both clone 29 and A431(8) cells, indicating that the same modification of several proteins occurred in cells which have totally different growth responses to EGF. Two proteins were identified whose phosphorylation was EGF dependent and which were unique to clone 29 cells; however, EGF increased phosphorylation of only serine residues in these proteins. This indicates that these proteins are not primary targets of the EGF-dependent tyrosine-specific protein kinase, but rather are substrates for serine-specific kinase(s) activated as a consequence of EGF:receptor interaction. cAMP, which inhibited growth of both clones, was utilized to compare the effects of EGF when the growth response of both cell lines was similar. In the presence of cAMP, EGF increased A431(8) cellular phosphotyrosine content and the phosphorylation of the same phosphotyrosine-containing proteins of both clone 29 and A431(8) cells. The in vivo activity of a second tyrosine-specific protein kinase, p60V -src in B77 Rous sarcoma virus (RSV)-transformed newborn rat kidney (NRK) cells, was also unaffected by cAMP. Thus cAMP did not block the in vivo activity of two tyrosine-specific kinases or the tyrosine phosphorylation of three specific protein substrates. A threshold model of tyrosine kinase activity is proposed as an alternative explanation for the differing growth responses to EGF.

The injection of Rous sarcoma virus (RSV) into the wing web of newly hatched chicks causes a rapidly growing sarcomatous tumour which is palpable within 1 week of inoculation; and cultures of fibroblasts derived from chick embryos (CEF) and infected with RSV become rapidly transformed. Genetic studies have determined that expression of a single viral gene, designated v-src, is necessary for neoplastic transformation. This gene codes for a 60,000-molecular weight phosphoprotein termed pp60SPC , which possesses a protein kinase activity that phosphorylates polypeptides on tyrosine residues and is constitutively expressed in infected CEF cells. It has been suggested that transformation, and possibly tumorigenesis, may result solely from the consequences of this increase in tyrosine phosphorylations. The pathogenicity of RSV in chick embryos in ovo is less clear. Murphy and Rous suggested that RSV may have caused tumours in "various tissues" of "some embryos", but the subsequent studies of Milford and Duran - Reynals , as well as several other laboratories, failed to find any evidence of intraembryonic tumours in RSV-infected early embryos. The findings of Duran - Reynals , if correct, cannot be explained easily in view of our present understanding of RSV tumorigenicity. Thus, we have re-examined the interaction of RSV with the avian embryo and confirm here that RSV is nontumorigenic and non-teratogenic when microinjected into day 4 chicken embryos. In addition, we found that (1) the virus not only replicates in the embryo, but it also expresses an active src-specific protein kinase and (2) once the cells from the infected limbs are disrupted and placed in culture, they are capable of expressing the transformed phenotype after a 24-h delay.

A protein kinase activity (PK) was associated with immunoprecipitates between polypeptides of human lymphoblastoid cells of malignant origin (Raji cell line) or of their normal counterparts ( Priess cell line) and antibodies directed against avian pp60 src or against the carboxyterminal hexapeptide of pp60 src. Therefore, these human cells and Rous Sarcoma Virus (RSV) transformed avian cells share antigenic determinants of pp60 src and, in particular, its carboxyterminal sequence, as well as one of its functions, a protein kinase activity. The protein kinase from Raji cells phosphorylated predominantly tyrosine residues, that from Priess cells threonine residues.

Cellular genes that are homologous to the transforming genes of certain RNA tumor viruses are suspected to play a functional role during normal developmental processes. To investigate this further, we are studying the expression of the cellular homolog of the Rous sarcoma virus transforming gene (c-src) during embryogenesis of fish, frog, and chicken by quantitative determination of the activity of the c-src encoded protein kinase (pp60c-src). The kinase activity from embryos of fish, frog, and chicken displays the same enzymatic characteristics as the kinase from adult animals: It phosphorylates only tyrosine residues in protein substrates, and its activity is relatively insensitive to inhibition by the diadenosine nucleotide Ap4A. During the course of development, the varying kinase activity level reflects differential expression of the c-src gene product. The kinase activity is low during early development, increases dramatically during organogenesis, and decreases thereafter to the level found in adult animals. The kinase activity displays an organ specificity, with brain showing the highest activity in embryos as well as in adults. Muscle, however, shows high activities during organogenesis, but no or barely detectable activity in adult animals. Our data suggest, therefore, that the c-src gene product plays more of a role in differentiation than in proliferation processes during embryogenesis, and that it may act as a pleiotropic effector.

The transforming protein of Rous sarcoma virus, p60src, has associated with it a protein kinase activity. We examined whether a correlation exists between the cellular concentration of enzymatically active p60src and the degree to which chick cells are transformed by mutants of Rous sarcoma virus which are temperature-sensitive for transformation. Such a correlation does exist, but cells infected with some mutants could be shown to contain, at the nonpermissive temperature, an amount of protein kinase activity equal to 30 to 40% of that in a wild-type transformed cell. We quantified the amount of virus-induced protein kinase activity by precipitation of p60src with an excess of antitumor antiserum. Our initial measurements of activity were serious underestimates, due to the lability of the protein kinase activity associated with p60src of at least four temperature-sensitive mutants. In fact, no activity at all was associated with p60src of tsLA90 when immunoprecipitation was performed by standard means. However, when immunoprecipitation was performed with procedures which minimize inactivation, it became apparent both that cells transformed by tsLA90 contained protein kinase activity and that cells infected with either NY68 or BK5 contained at the nonpermissive temperature, one-third to one-half as much activity as wild-type transformed cells. This level of activity was much more than that arising from p60sarc in uninfected cells. In uninfected cells we found an amount of protein kinase activity which varied from 3 to 5% as much as that in a virally transformed cell. The lability of the protein kinase activity of each of these mutants is a further demonstration that this activity is essential for the transformation of cells by Rous sarcoma virus. So as to explain the high protein kinase levels in cells infected with NY68 and BK5 at the nonpermissive temperature, the idea that transformation may be a response to a small quantitative change in the total activity of p60src and the possibility that there may be more than one viral function which is essential for transformation are discussed.

The protein kinase activity associated with pp60src, the transforming protein of Rous sarcoma virus, was found to phosphorylate tyrosine when assayed in an immunoprecipitate. Despite the fact that a protein kinase with this activity has not been described before, several observations suggest that pp60src also phosphorylates tyrosine in vivo. First, chicken cells transformed by Rous sarcoma virus contain as much as 8-fold more phosphotyrosine than do uninfected cells. Second, phosphotyrosine is present in pp60src itself, at one of the two sites of phosphorylation. Third, phosphotyrosine is present in the 50,000-dalton phosphoprotein that coprecipitates with pp60src extracted from transformed chicken cells. We infer from these observations that pp60src is a novel protein kinase and that the modification of proteins via the phosphorylation of tyrosine is essential to the malignant transformation of cells by Rous sarcoma virus. pp60sarc, the closely related cellular homologue of viral pp60src, is present in all vertebrate cells. This normal cellular protein, obtained from both chicken and human cells, also phosphorylated tyrosine when assayed in an immunoprecipitate. This is additional evidence of the functional similarity of these structurally related proteins and demonstrates that all uninfected vertebrate cells contain at least one protein kinase that phosphorylates tyrosine.

The localization of the src-encoded protein kinase was examined by fractionating cellular extracts from rat cells transformed by a wild type and a temperature-sensitive mutant of Rous sarcoma virus (SR-A 3Y1 and ts68 3Y1 cells). It was found to be specifically localized in the post-microsomal supernatant (PMS) fraction. Furthermore, it was noticed that a protein with a molecular weight of 16,000 (16K-protein) in the PMS fraction was phosphorylated in vitro when the PMS fraction from ts68 3Y1 cells was preincubated at 33 degrees C, but not at 42 degrees C. This protein was phosphorylated when the fraction from SR-A 3Y1 cells was preincubated at 33 degrees C and at 42 degrees C. Similar temperature-sensitive phosphorylation of 16K-protein was also observed in the PMS fraction from ts68 3Y1 cells labeled in vivo with [32P]orthophosphate at 33 degrees C. These results suggest that this 16K-protein might be a candidate for the endogenous acceptor for the src-encoded protein kinase.
