We have studied the signal transduction pathways of fibroblast growth factor receptor-4 (FGFR-4) and FGFR-1, which showed virtually identical acidic fibroblast growth factor binding profiles as well as tyrosine autophosphorylation upon activation in transfected L6 rat myoblasts and NIH3T3 mouse fibroblasts. A prominently tyrosyl-phosphorylated doublet of polypeptides of 85 kDa coprecipitated with activated FGFR-4 from both cell lines studied, but these polypeptides were not detected upon immunoprecipitation of activated FGFR-1. Furthermore, FGFR-4 induced only a weak tyrosyl phosphorylation of phospholipase C-gamma and no detectable tyrosyl phosphorylation of the SHC adaptor proteins in contrast to FGFR-1. No phosphorylation of Ras GTPase-activating protein, p64 Syp/PTP1D tyrosine phosphatase, or association of the GRB2 adaptor protein SH2 domain with these receptors was detected. Unlike FGFR-1, FGFR-4 induced only a barely detectable phosphorylation of the cellular serine/threonine kinase Raf-1 and a weaker tyrosyl phosphorylation of mitogen-activated protein kinases than FGFR-1. Despite these differences, stimulation of both receptors resulted in increased DNA synthesis.

Transforming growth factor beta (TGF beta) inhibits the proliferation of a wide range of cell types through interaction with its cell surface receptor (R-TGF beta). R-TGF beta possesses serine/threonine kinase activity rather than the tyrosine kinase activity normally associated with peptide growth factor receptors; nevertheless, TGF beta triggers a signaling pathway that leads to the repression of transcription factors, which appear to mediate the action of receptor tyrosine kinases within the nucleus. Accumulating evidence has also shown that the nonreceptor protein tyrosine kinases of the Src family play essential roles in the signal transduction pathways that regulate cell proliferation, differentiation, and function. Here, we investigate whether signals initiated by R-TGF beta are transduced, at least in part, through members of the Src family of tyrosine kinases. Treatment of the responsive human prostate carcinoma cell line PC3 with TGF beta induces a rapid and specific decrease in cellular levels of pp60Src and pp53/56Lyn and a corresponding decrease in their protein kinase activity when the assays were performed in vitro using the exogenous substrate enolase. Consistent with suppression of pp60Src and pp53/56Lyn kinase activity, TGF beta also caused a substantial intracellular accumulation of the unphosphorylated form of SH2-containing protein (SHC), a substrate of the Src family kinases. This was paralleled by decreased formation of a complex between the adaptor protein known as growth factor receptor-bound protein 2 and SHC. These results suggest, for the first time, that TGF beta induces down-regulation of Src family kinases, leading to disruption of the SHC-growth factor receptor-bound protein 2 complex. These events may play a crucial role in the negative regulation of Ras, as well as in the control of downstream effector molecules involved in the regulation of cell growth.

We have examined the mechanism of signal transduction by the hemidesmosomal integrin alpha 6 beta 4, a laminin receptor involved in morphogenesis and tumor progression. Immunoprecipitation and immune complex kinase assays indicated that antibody- or laminin-induced ligation of alpha 6 beta 4 causes tyrosine phosphorylation of the beta 4 subunit in intact cells and that this event is mediated by a protein kinase(s) physically associated with the integrin. Co-immunoprecipitation and GST fusion protein binding experiments showed that the adaptor protein Shc forms a complex with the tyrosine-phosphorylated beta 4 subunit. Shc is then phosphorylated on tyrosine residues and recruits the adaptor Grb2, thereby potentially linking alpha 6 beta 4 to the ras pathway. The beta 4 subunit was found to be phosphorylated at multiple tyrosine residues in vivo, including a tyrosine-based activation motif (TAM) resembling those found in T and B cell receptors. Phenylalanine substitutions at the beta 4 TAM disrupted association of alpha 6 beta 4 with hemidesmosomes, but did not interfere with tyrosine phosphorylation of Shc and recruitment of Grb2. These results indicate that signal transduction by the alpha 6 beta 4 integrin is mediated by an associated tyrosine kinase and that phosphorylation of distinct sites in the beta 4 tail mediates assembly of the hemidesmosomal cytoskeleton and recruitment of Shc/Grb2.

Ligation of membrane immunoglobulin M (mIgM) receptor in the Ramos B-cell line induced tyrosine phosphorylation of several intracellular substrates, including the adaptor protein. Shc. Phosphorylated Shc could be seen to associate with Grb2 in a complex which included hSOS. Inasmuch as hSOS is involved in p21ras activation, we also demonstrated that mIgM ligation activated a Ras-dependent kinase cascade in which sequential activation of Raf-1 and MEK-1 culminates in the activation of p42 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase (ERK-2). The tumour promoter and protein kinase C agonist, phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), also activated Raf-1, MEK-1, and MAP kinase in Ramos cells, but did not induce tyrosine phosphorylation of Shc or Shc/Grb2 association. Okadaic acid, another tumour promoter and serine/threonine phosphatase inhibitor, activated p42 MAP kinase without activating Raf-1 or MEK-1, suggesting the existence of a serine/threonine phosphatase which directly regulates MAP kinase activity.

Rat liver parenchyma harbors equal numbers of epidermal growth factor (EGF) and insulin receptors. Following administration of a saturating dose of EGF (10 micrograms/100 g body weight), there was a rapid (t1/2 approximately 1.1 min) internalization of receptor coincident with its tyrosine phosphorylation at residue 1173 and receptor recruitment of the adaptor protein SHC, its tyrosine phosphorylation and its association with GRB2 and the Ras guanine nucleotide exchange factor, mSOS, largely in endosomes. This led to a cytosolic pool of a complex of tyrosine-phosphorylated SHC, GRB2 and mSOS. It was demonstrated that these constituents were linked to Ras activation by the characteristic decrease in Raf-1 mobility on SDS-PAGE, which was maintained for 60 min after a single bolus of administered EGF. While insulin administration (15 micrograms/100 g body weight) led to insulin receptor beta-subunit tyrosine phosphorylation and internalization, there was little detectable tyrosine phosphorylation of SHC, recruitment of GRB2, association of a complex with mSOS or any detectable change in the mobility of Raf-1. Therefore, in normal physiological target cells in vivo, distinct signaling pathways are realized after EGF or insulin receptor activation, with regulation of this specificity most probably occurring at the locus of the endosome.

We have previously shown that the IL-6R in a growth-responsive B cell line, AF10, induces activation of mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase. Here we demonstrate the activation of Raf-1 and MEK-1, which act as a MAP kinase kinase kinase and a MAP kinase kinase, respectively, in the MAP kinase cascade induced by IL-6 in AF10 cells. IL-6 also induced tyrosine phosphorylation of the signaling transducing subunit of the IL-6R in AF10 cells, along with tyrosine phosphorylation of the gp130-associated tyrosine protein kinase JAK1 and the adaptor molecule p52shc. Although induction of tyrosine phosphorylation and activation of MAP kinase by IL-6 in a differentiation-responsive B cell line, SKW 6.4, were below the limits of detection, the phorbol ester PMA did activate Raf-1, MEK-1, and MAP kinase without inducing the phosphorylation of gp130, JAKs, or p52shc. These results suggest that JAK kinase family members associated with the IL-6R may participate in the activation of MAP kinase in AF10 cells by way of an adaptor protein and Ras-dependent kinase cascade.

The large subunit of herpes simplex virus type 2 ribonucleotide reductase (ICP10) is a multifunctional protein. It consists of a ribonucleotide reductase and a serine/threonine protein kinase (PK) domain, which has three proline-rich motifs consistent with SH3-binding sites at positions 140, 149, and 396. We used site-directed mutagenesis to identify amino acids required for kinase activity and interaction with signaling proteins. Mutation of Lys176 or Lys259 reduced PK activity (5-8-fold) and binding of the 14C-labeled ATP analog rho-fluorosulfonylbenzoyl 5'-adenosine (FSBA) but did not abrogate them. Enzymatic activity and FSBA binding were abrogated by mutation of both Lys residues, suggesting that either one can bind ATP. Mutation of Glu209 (PK catalytic motif III) virtually abrogated kinase activity in the presence of Mg2+ or Mn2+ ions, suggesting that Glu209 functions in ion-dependent PK activity. ICP10 bound the adaptor protein Grb2 in vitro. Mutation of the ICP10 proline-rich motifs at positions 396 and 149 reduced Grb2 binding 20- and 2-fold, respectively. Binding was abrogated by mutation of both motifs. Grb2 binding to wild type ICP10 was competed by a peptide for the Grb2 C-terminal SH3 motif, indicating that it involves the Grb2 C-terminal SH3.

Nck is a 47-kDa cytosolic protein devoid of intrinsic catalytic activity and consisting of Src homology 2 and 3 (SH2 and SH3) domains organized as follows: SH3-SH3-SH3-SH2. Nck is believed to act as an adaptor protein mediating signal transduction initiated by receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs). Through its SH2 domain, Nck recognizes a specific phosphotyrosine residue on RTKs or on protein substrates of RTKs like insulin receptor substrate-1, the major substrate of the insulin receptor, and through its SH3 domains it interacts with poorly characterized effector molecules. To identify novel proteins that might interact with Nck, we have used the amino-terminal segment of Nck encompassing its three SH3 domains in the yeast two-hybrid system. Among the polypeptides that associate with Nck, we have identified the gamma2 isoform of the serine/threonine casein kinase I (CKI-gamma2). In transformed rat hepatocytes overexpressing the insulin receptor (HTC-IR cells), serine/threonine protein kinase activity coimmunoprecipitates with Nck, an interaction mediated mainly by the third SH3 domain of Nck. This kinase activity is not apparently modulated by insulin, nor is it sensitive to staurosporine or heparin, and it does not use GTP as a phosphate donor. However the kinase activity coimmunoprecipitated with Nck is completely abolished by N-(2-aminoethyl)-5-chloroisoquinoline-8-sulfonamide, a specific inhibitor of casein kinase I. In an in vitro renaturation gel kinase assay, a protein kinase of 70-75 kDa was detected associated with the SH3 domains of Nck. Far Western analysis demonstrated that the SH3 domains of Nck bound directly to a cytosolic protein of 70-75 kDa. A rabbit polyclonal antibody raised against the C-terminal region of CKI-gamma2 protein kinase immunoprecipitated a single specific protein of 70-75 kDa from HTC-IR cell lysates and detected CKI-gamma2 among the proteins coimmunoprecipitated with Nck. These results support an in vivo interaction between Nck and CKI-gamma2 and suggest that CKI-gamma2 could be involved in signaling pathways downstream of RTKs.

Taxol, a natural product with significant anti-tumor activity, stabilizes microtubules and arrests cells in the G2/M phase of the cell cycle. It has been reported that taxol has additional effects in cells, including an increase in tyrosine phosphorylation of proteins and activation of MAP kinase. We investigated a possible effect of taxol on tyrosine phosphorylation of Shc and on formation of the Shc/Grb-2 complex in the murine macrophage-like cell line RAW 264.7. Shc, an SH2 domain containing adaptor protein, was immunoprecipitated from lysates of taxol-treated cells with anti-phosphotyrosine antibody and its identity determined by Western blotting with anti-Shc antibody. Non-denatured Shc containing protein complexes were immunoprecipitated with anti-Shc antibody, and analysis with an anti-Grb2 antibody revealed the presence of the 24-kDa Grb2 protein. Taxol also activated Raf-1 kinase and ERK1/ERK2 MAP kinases in these cells. These results demonstrate that taxol affects tyrosine phosphorylation of Shc and this may result in the activation of the Raf-1/MAPK cascade.

Several members of the tumour-necrosis/nerve-growth factor (TNF/NGF) receptor family activate the transcription factor NF-kappaB through a common adaptor protein, Traf2 (refs 1-5), whereas the interleukin 1 type-I receptor activates NF-kappaB independently of Traf2 (ref. 4). We have now cloned a new protein kinase, NIK, which binds to Traf2 and stimulates NF-kappaB activity. This kinase shares sequence similarity with several MAPKK kinases. Expression in cells of kinase-deficient NIK mutants fails to stimulate NF-kappaB and blocks its induction by TNF, by either of the two TNF receptors or by the receptor CD95 (Fas/Apo-1), and by TRADD, RIP and MORT1/FADD, which are adaptor proteins that bind to these receptors. It also blocked NF-kappaB induction by interleukin-1. Our findings indicate that NIK participates in an NF-kappaB-inducing signalling cascade common to receptors of the TNF/NGF family and to the interleukin-1 type-I receptor.
