To explore the molecular mechanisms of nerve growth factor (NGF) action, we have attempted to identify proteins that immunoprecipitate with the NGF receptor. An anti-NGF receptor antibody was developed that immunoprecipitated the 75-Kd receptor in PC-12 cells. In [35S]methionine-labeled cells lysed with nonionic detergent, immunoprecipitation with this antireceptor antisera specifically brought down several associated proteins, although prior treatment of cells with NGF produced no apparent change in the distribution of these proteins. However, in vitro phosphorylation assays of the immunoprecipitated complex revealed the presence of a serine kinase that phosphorylated two predominant substrates with Mrs of 60 and 130 Kd. Prior treatment of cells produced no change in the appearance of the 60-Kd phosphoprotein, but NGF did stimulate the appearance of the 130-Kd protein. This effect was observed with as little as 0.1 nM NGF and was maximal at 5 min, but declined thereafter. Prior treatment of cells with NGF did not increase the phosphorylation of enolase added exogenously to the immunoprecipitates, suggesting that this action of NGF may have reflected the hormone-dependent association of the 130-Kd protein with the receptor, rather than activation of a receptor-associated kinase. Thus the association of the NGF 75-Kd receptor with a 130-Kd protein may be involved in signal transduction for the growth factor, although the role of this receptor in the NGF-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation remains unclear.

The pathways depicted in Figure 1 summarize the data discussed in this article. In neurons, the binding of insulin and IGF-I to their respective receptors triggers autophosphorylation of the receptor beta-subunits. IGF-II binds to both neuronal insulin and IGF-I receptors and can stimulate autophosphorylation of either receptor type. In addition to enhancing insulin and IGF-I receptor autophosphorylation, all 3 peptides stimulate the tyrosine phosphorylation of a 70 kDa protein with a similar time course and dose response to receptor phosphorylation. The identity of pp70 is unknown, although the close temporal relationship between pp70 phosphorylation and neurite outgrowth suggests a potential role for this protein. Subsequent to these very early events, two neuronal serine kinases are activated by insulin. One has S6 kinase activity and may represent either the pp90rsk or pp70 class of S6 kinases. Since S6 kinases are activated by direct phosphorylation rather than by second messengers, it is likely that a neuronal S6 kinase kinase exists. The activation of S6 kinase is likely to mediate insulin's effects on neuronal protein synthesis or other growth-related processes. The second serine kinase that is activated by insulin is PKC epsilon. This enzyme is largely restricted to the nervous system, so this signalling pathway may be neuronal-specific. The mechanism of activation of PKC epsilon is unknown, although preliminary data suggests that enhanced phosphorylation of the enzyme is involved. Studies are currently underway to investigate the potential role of diacylglycerol, a potential second messenger generated from either phosphotidylinositol or phosphotidylcholine hydrolysis, in the activation of PKC epsilon by insulin.

We have recently characterized a serine kinase in T lymphocytes which phosphorylates microtubule-associated protein-2 (MAP-2) in vitro. This kinase is activated in a rapidly reversible fashion during ligation of CD3/Ti by a process which involves tyrosine phosphorylation of the enzyme itself. We show that the stimulatory anti-CD2 mAb combination, anti-(T11(2) + T11(3), stimulates MAP-2K activity in Jurkat cells with kinetics that are more prolonged than during anti-CD3 treatment. The principal difference is not in the rate of response induction, but in the decline of the response beyond the peak, to which end anti-CD2 stimulation resembles the sustained phytohaemagglutin (PHA) response. Parallel immunoblotting, utilizing anti-phosphotyrosine antibodies, also revealed differences in the rate at which tyrosine phosphorylation of pp43 (MAP-2K) disappears after induction. In spite of these differences, CD2 was absolutely dependent on the presence of CD3 for inducing a MAP-2K response in Jurkat cells. These results indicate that, even though CD2 and CD3 are using a common signalling pathway in Jurkat cells, additional differences such as the involvement of a tyrosine phosphatase may have to be considered in response generation. We also demonstrate that the common CD45 isoform, when cross-linked to CD2 by mAb, could inhibit the MAP-2K response during both induction as well as the disappearing phase of the response.

Forskolin-pretreatment of A431 cells reduced both intrinsic and epidermal growth factor (EGF)-induced EGF receptor phosphorylation, however, phosphorylation of phospholipase C-gamma (PLC-gamma) was stimulated under the same conditions. No significant difference was detected in the amount of phosphotyrosine of PLC-gamma between two cultures with or without forskolin treatment followed by EGF. On the other hand, phosphorylation of a 47 kDa protein (P47) which cross-reacted with an anti-PLC-gamma monoclonal antibody, was stimulated by both forskolin and EGF. Phosphorylation was exclusively on serine residues in this case. These results indicate that both PLC-gamma and P47 are phosphorylated by a cAMP-dependent protein kinase and the EGF-stimulated serine kinase, and suggest that serine phosphorylation of PLC-gamma has no effect on ligand-dependent coupling with the EGF receptor.

Extracts of bakers' yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) contain protein-tyrosine kinase activity that can be detected with a synthetic Glu-Tyr copolymer as substrate (G. Schieven, J. Thorner, and G.S. Martin, Science 231:390-393, 1986). By using this assay in conjunction with ion-exchange and affinity chromatography, a soluble tyrosine kinase activity was purified over 8,000-fold from yeast extracts. The purified activity did not utilize typical substrates for mammalian protein-tyrosine kinases (enolase, casein, and histones). The level of tyrosine kinase activity at all steps of each preparation correlated with the content of a 40-kDa protein (p40). Upon incubation of the most highly purified fractions with Mn-ATP or Mg-ATP, p40 was the only protein phosphorylated on tyrosine. Immunoblotting of purified p40 or total yeast extracts with antiphosphotyrosine antibodies and phosphoamino acid analysis of 32P-labeled yeast proteins fractionated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis indicated that the 40-kDa protein is normally phosphorylated at tyrosine in vivo. 32P-labeled p40 immunoprecipitated from extracts of metabolically labeled cells by affinity-purified anti-p40 antibodies contained both phosphoserine and phosphotyrosine. The gene encoding p40 (YPK1) was cloned from a yeast genomic library by using oligonucleotide probes designed on the basis of the sequence of purified peptides. As deduced from the nucleotide sequence of YPK1, p40 is homologous to known protein kinases, with features that resemble known protein-serine kinases more than known protein-tyrosine kinases. Thus, p40 is a protein kinase which is phosphorylated in vivo and in vitro at both tyrosine and serine residues; it may be a novel type of autophosphorylating tyrosine kinase, a bifunctional (serine/tyrosine-specific) protein kinase, or a serine kinase that is a substrate for an associated tyrosine kinase.

The effects of cationic polyamino acids on phosphorylation of the insulin and insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor kinases were studied and the following observations were made. (a) Polylysine stimulated both tyrosine and serine phosphorylation of the insulin receptor and of additional proteins present in lectin-purified membrane preparations from rat liver. (b) Polylysine synergized with insulin to enhance phosphorylation of the insulin receptor and of additional proteins (pp40 and pp110). (c) Polylysine effects were more pronounced upon increasing the polylysine chain length. (d) The effect of polylysine was biphasic with an optimum at 100 micrograms/ml. (e) Polylysine was found ineffective in stimulating the phosphorylation of immobilized insulin receptors. Taken together, these findings support the notion that the action of polylysine involves conformational changes and presumably aggregation of soluble receptors. The same effects of polylysine were obtained with highly purified insulin receptor preparations. Under these conditions polylysine enhanced both serine and tyrosine phosphorylation of the insulin receptor, suggesting that polylysine stimulates the activity of the insulin receptor kinase, and of a serine kinase that is tightly associated with the insulin receptor.

A soluble derivative of the human insulin receptor cytoplasmic domain, as expressed in insect cells via a Baculovirus vector, is an active protein-tyrosine kinase. In the present study, we find that three forms of the enzyme (48, 43, and 38 kDa) can be partially purified by MonoQ fast protein liquid chromatography. Two-dimensional thin layer phosphopeptide mapping reveals that the 48-kDa enzyme undergoes a rapid autophosphorylation on the same tyrosines (residues 1158, 1162, 1163, 1328, and 1334) that have previously been shown to be major autophosphorylation sites on the native insulin receptor beta-subunit in intact cells. Furthermore, the 48- and 43-kDa proteins are phosphorylated on serine residues by a serine kinase(s) that copurifies through MonoQ fast protein liquid chromatography. Tyrosine autophosphorylation sites 1328 and 1334 and virtually all serine phosphorylation sites are absent in the 38-kDa kinase. Partial tryptic proteolysis of the 48-kDa kinase generates a core 38-kDa enzyme that undergoes autophosphorylation almost exclusively on tyrosines 1158, 1162, and 1163. Phosphorylation of these tyrosine residues occurs in a cascade manner analogous to that found in the intact insulin receptor beta-subunit.

Ligation of CD3/TCR on T-cells induces transient activation of lymphoid MAP-2 kinase (MAP-2K), a 43 kDa serine kinase which itself is a substrate of an unidentified tyrosine kinase (pp43). The reversibility of the MAP-2K response agrees with removal of tyrosine phosphates from pp43. Since both activity as well as tyrosine phosphorylation of MAP-2K could be prolonged by Na3VO4, a phosphotyrosine phosphatase inhibitor, we studied the effect of the common CD45 isoform, which is a member of the CD45 phosphatase family, on MAP-2K activity in vivo and in vitro. We demonstrate the ability of purified CD45 phosphatase to remove tyrosine phosphates from partially purified lymphoid MAP-2K. Utilizing the approach of heterologous receptor aggregation, we also showed that CD45 could inhibit the induction of MAP-2K activity in intact Jurkat cells during CD3 or CD3 + CD4 stimulation. We therefore suggest that this phosphatase may control the activity of lymphoid MAP-2K in vivo.

Two inhibitory Ras mutant proteins [(Asn 17) Ras and RAST] were microinjected into NIH3T3 cells in order to compare their inhibitory activity with that of a neutralizing anti-ras antibody. Both mutants were able to block efficiently the mitogenic effects of serum added to quiescent NIH3T3 cells. Furthermore, each of the inhibitors blocked cell cycle progression at the same point as the injected anti-ras antibody, just prior to the initiation of a new round of DNA synthesis. Finally, as with the injected anti-ras antibody, each of the inhibitors was efficiently able to block proliferation and reverse the transformed morphology of cells transformed by tyrosine kinase oncogenes, while cells transformed by serine kinase oncogenes were unaffected. Therefore, results with all three reagents clearly indicate that cellular Ras activity is required in the late G1 phase of the cell cycle and is essential for the maintenance of the transformed phenotype induced by tyrosine but not serine kinase oncogenes. These studies demonstrate the utility of dominant inhibitory mutants as a means of interfering with the activity of cellular oncogenes.

The products of the cot gene, a novel oncogene isolated by DNA transfection assay using the hamster cell line SHOK, were identified as 46 kDa and 52 kDa proteins by using anti-peptide antibodies. The 46 kDa and 52 kDa proteins both showed autophosphorylation activity at serine residues. The two forms of the Cot protein were suggested to differ in their amino-terminal structures as a result of alternative initiation of translation. Subcellular fractionation revealed that the 46 kDa and 52 kDa proteins are both predominantly localized in the cytosol. These Cot proteins are the fourth oncogene products with serine kinase activity identified.
