Cellular src protein, p60c-src, is phosphorylated on tyrosine 527 in chicken embryo fibroblasts, and this phosphorylation is implicated in suppressing the protein-tyrosine kinase activity and transforming potential of p60c-src. To determine whether tyrosine 527 phosphorylation is dependent on p60c-src kinase activity, the ATP-binding site of chicken p60c-src was destroyed by substitution of lysine 295 with methionine. The resultant protein, p60c-src(M295), expressed either in chicken cells or in yeast, lacked detectable kinase activity. Nevertheless, tyrosine and serine phosphorylation of p60c-src(M295) overproduced in chicken cells were indistinguishable from that of authentic p60c-src. By contrast, p60c-src(M295) was not phosphorylated on tyrosine in yeast. These results suggest that a protein kinase present in chicken cells but not in yeast phosphorylates tyrosine 527 in trans, and are consistent with the possibility that this kinase is distinct from p60c-src.

As cells enter mitosis, the protein-tyrosine kinase, p60c-src, is known to be extensively phosphorylated on threonine in its amino-terminal region. In the present work, extracts of mitotic cells were searched for the protein kinase responsible for this phosphorylation. HeLa cells and Xenopus eggs were found to contain a mitosis-specific protein kinase activity capable of phosphorylating highly purified p60c-src in vitro on threonine residues. Tryptic phosphopeptide maps indicate that the mitotic HeLa kinase phosphorylates the same sites in vitro as those used during mitosis in vivo. In addition, this mitotic HeLa kinase comigrates on gel filtration with p34cdc2-associated histone H1 kinase, a well known regulator of mitotic events. Finally, antibodies to the C-terminal peptide of human p34cdc2 specifically deplete p60c-src-phosphorylating activity from mitotic extracts. These results suggest that p60c-src may act as an effector of p34cdc2 in certain mitotic processes.

The physiological roles, precise locations, and relevant targets of the 60 kD protein-tyrosine kinase encoded by viral and cellular src genes p60src are not known, despite intensive study. We describe recent work that bears upon these unresolved problems: (i) p60c-src is phosphorylated during mitosis on threonine and serine residues by the protein kinase encoded by the mammalian homologue of cdc2, suggesting that c-src may contribute to the phenotype of mitotic cells; (ii) multiple regions in the amino-terminal portion of p60src are required for its proper intracellular localization--a short signal for myristylation and signals for association with cytoplasmic granules and with perinuclear and plasma membranes; and (iii) regions (called SH3 and SH2) upstream of the kinase domain modulate the behavior of p60src in complex ways, with some mutations in SH2 rendering p60 host-dependent for transformation. The latter mutants may prove to be powerful tools for identifying proteins that modify or serve as targets for src-encoded protein-tyrosine kinases.

Piceatannol (3,4,3'5'-tetrahydroxy-trans-stilbene), a plant secondary natural product that had previously been identified as an antileukemic principle, has been shown to be an inhibitor of protein-tyrosine kinase activity. Piceatannol inhibits the purified thymocyte protein-tyrosine kinase, p40, by competing for the peptide or protein substrate binding site (Ki = 15 microM). Piceatannol also inhibits the activity of the p56lck protein-tyrosine kinase measured either in LSTRA cell membranes or in intact cells. In contrast, piceatannol does not inhibit the activity of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase.

A brush-border membranal proteinase, which specifically clips the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase, is shown to cleave the receptor for the epidermal growth factor (EGF) (Mr = 170,000) into two fragments of Mr = 140,000 and 30,000. The 140-kDa fragment retains its EGF-binding site and its EGF-dependent protein tyrosine kinase activity on exogenous substrates, but it loses its capacity to undergo self-phosphorylation. It is shown to be distinct from the 150-kDa fragment of the EGF receptor obtained by the Ca2+-activated neutral proteinase. The membranal proteinase strictly recognizes the native structure of the receptor and fails to cleave either the denatured receptor or its 150-kDa degradation product. Thus the membranal proteinase acts as a conformation-recognizing probe for both the protein-tyrosine kinase domain of the EGF receptor and the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein-Ser/Thr kinase, suggesting that the known sequence homology between these two kinases is also reflected in their conformation. The well defined 140-kDa fragment described here is useful for structure-function studies of the EGF receptor.

Recent progress on analysis of functions of proto-oncogenes was discussed with the protein-tyrosine kinase group as an example. Many proto-oncogenes encode proteins related to regulation of cell growth and differentiation. Among those, the largest group is the protein kinase super family which includes growth factor receptors, non-receptor type protein-tyrosine kinases and serine-threonine kinases. They can be divided into subgroups according to their polypeptide and genomic structures. Members of each subgroup appeared to be originated from each single ancestral gene during evolutionary process even within the protein kinase super family.

The epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor is a plasma membrane glycoprotein. It contains four distinct segments: an N-terminal EGF binding domain which is exposed at the cell surface; a short transmembrane segment; a cytoplasmic domain with protein-tyrosine kinase activity; and a C-terminal regulatory segment. Binding of EGF to the external domain of the receptor activates the protein-tyrosine kinase activity of the receptor, and this elevated kinase activity is presumed to be involved in the activation of cell growth. The v-erbB transforming gene of avian erythroblastosis virus is derived, by retroviral transduction, from the gene (c-erbB) which encodes the avian EGF receptor. The transforming capacity of v-erbB appears to result from truncation of the receptor. In erythroid cells, truncation of the N-terminal ligand binding domain is sufficient for transformation, whereas in fibroblasts removal of an additional C-terminal segment is required for transformation. The EGF receptor is subject to complex regulatory controls, including ligand activation, downregulation by internalization, autophosphorylation and autoregulation and transmodulation involving phosphorylation by kinase C. This review is centered around the hypothesis that the transforming capacity of the truncated v-erbB gene product results from a loss in sensitivity to regulators and the consequent activation of protein kinase activity.

In recent years, two protein-tyrosine kinase activities, phosphorylating tyrosine residues on the transmembrane band-3 protein, have been isolated from human erythrocyte membranes and partially characterized by different laboratories, i.e. one extracted by non-ionic detergent (Triton X-100 or Nonidet P-40), the other solubilized by 0.25 M NaCl from the detergent-insoluble residue. The present paper shows that these two membrane-associated Tyr-protein kinases purified, in the presence of bovine serum albumin, by phosphocellulose chromatography followed by heparin-Sepharose chromatography, have the same apparent molecular mass (36 kDa) determined by Ultrogel Ac44 filtration. Moreover, both Tyr-protein kinases exhibit several identical properties, including Km values for band 3, the random acidic copolymer poly(Glu,Tyr)4:1 and angiotensin II, pH dependence, response to Mn2+ and Mg2+, response to NaCl and 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate. All these properties are identical or very similar to those exhibited by the Tyr-protein kinase previously isolated by us from human erythrocyte cytosol. These results suggest that the two membrane-associated and the cytosolic Tyr-protein kinase activities are mediated by the same enzyme, distributed between the cytosol and the membrane structures.

Sequences termed v-abl, which encode the protein-tyrosine kinase activity of Abelson murine leukemia virus, have been expressed in Escherichia coli as a fusion product (ptabl50 kinase). This fusion protein contains 80 amino acids of SV40 small t and the 403 amino acid protein kinase domain of v-abl. We report here the purification and characterization of this kinase. The purified material contains two proteins (Mr = 59,800 and 57,200), both of which possess sequences derived from v-abl. Overall purification was 3,750-fold, with a 31% yield, such that 117 micrograms of kinase could be obtained from 40 g of E. coli within 6-7 days. The specific kinase activity is over 170 mumol of phosphate min-1 mumol-1, comparable to the most active protein-serine kinases. Kinase activity is insensitive to K+, Na+, Ca2+, Ca2+-calmodulin, cAMP, or cAMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitor. The Km for ATP is dependent on the concentration of the second substrate. GTP can also be used as a phosphate donor. The enzyme can phosphorylate peptides consisting of as few as two amino acids and, at a very low rate, free tyrosine. Incubation of the kinase with [gamma-32P]ATP results in incorporation of 1.0 mol of phosphate/mol of protein. This reaction, however, cannot be blocked by prior incubation with unlabeled ATP. Incubation of 32P-labeled kinase with either ADP or ATP results in the synthesis of [32P]ATP. This suggests the phosphotyrosine residue on the Abelson kinase contains a high energy phosphate bond.

A region of the primary amino acid sequence of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGF) protein-tyrosine kinase, which is involved in ATP binding, was identified using chemical modification and immunological techniques. EGF receptor was 14C-labelled with the ATP analogue 5'-p-fluorosulphonylbenzoyladenosine and from a tryptic digest a single radiolabelled peptide was isolated. The amino acid sequence was determined to be residues 716-724 and hence lysine residue 721 is located within the ATP-binding site. Antisera were elicited in rabbits to a synthetic peptide identical to residues 716-727 of the EGF receptor and the homologous sequence in v-erb B transforming protein from avian erythroblastosis virus. The affinity-purified antibodies precipitated human ECF receptor from A431 cells and placenta, and the v-erb B protein from erythroblasts. The antibodies inhibited EGF-stimulated receptor protein-tyrosine kinase autophosphorylation and phosphorylation of an exogenous peptide substrate containing tyrosine. The antibodies did not immunoprecipitate the transforming proteins pp60v-src or P120gag-abl or cAMP-dependent protein kinase, proteins which have homologous but not identical sequences surrounding the lysine residue within the ATP-binding site, nor did they react with the platelet-derived growth factor receptor. The antibodies had no effect on the kinase activity of purified v-abl protein in solution. The antibodies may therefore be a specific inhibitor of the tyrosine kinase of the EGF receptor.
