When 7721 human hepatocarcinoma cells were treated with 100 nM phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA), the activity of N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase V(GnT-V) in the cells varied in accordance with the activity of membranous protein kinase C (PKC), but not with that of cytosolic PKC. Quercetin, a non-specific inhibitor of Ser/Thr protein kinase, and D-sphingosine and staurosporine, two specific inhibitors of PKC, blocked the activation of membranous PKC and GnT-V by PMA. Among the three inhibitors, quercetin was least effective. The inhibitory rates of quercetin and staurosporine toward membranous PKC and GnTV were proportional to the concentrations of the two inhibitors. The activities of GnTV and membranous protein kinase A (PKA) were also induced in parallel by dibutyryl cAMP (db-cAMP) and this induction was blocked by a specific PKA inhibitor. When cell free preparations of 7721 cells and human kidney were treated with alkaline phosphatase (ALP) to remove the phosphate groups, the GnTV activities were decreased. These results suggest that GnTV may be activated by membranous PKC or PKA, indirectly or directly, via phosphorylation of Ser/Thr residues.

Transformation of baby hamster kidney fibroblasts by the Rous sarcoma virus causes a significant increase in the GlcNAcbeta(1, 6)Man-branched oligosaccharides by elevating the activity and mRNA transcript levels encoding N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase V (GlcNAc-T V). Elevated activity and mRNA levels could be inhibited by blocking cell proliferation with herbimycin A, demonstrating that Src kinase activity can regulate GlcNAc-T V expression. 5' RACE analysis was used to identify a 3-kilobase 5'-untranslated region from GlcNAc-T V mRNA and locate a transcriptional start site in a 25-kilobase pair GlcNAc-T V human genomic clone. A 6-kilobase pair fragment of the 5' region of the gene contained AP-1 and PEA3/Ets binding elements and, when co-transfected with a src expression plasmid into HepG2 cells, conferred src-stimulated transcriptional enhancement upon a luciferase reporter gene. This stimulation by src could be antagonized by co-transfection with a dominant-negative mutant of the Raf kinase, suggesting the involvement of Ets transcription factors in the regulation of GlcNAc-T V gene expression. The src-responsive element was localized by 5' deletion analysis to a 250-base pair region containing two overlapping Ets sites. src stimulation of transcription from this region was inhibited by co-transfection with a dominant-negative mutant of Ets-2, demonstrating that the effects of the src kinase on GlcNAc-T V expression are dependent on Ets.
