Binding of ligand to the alpha subunit of Fc gamma RIIIA(CD16), expressed at the natural killer (NK) cell membrane in association with homo or heterodimers of proteins of the zeta family, results in phosphorylation of several proteins on tyrosine residues. We have analyzed the role of protein tyrosine phosphorylation in the regulation of molecular events induced upon stimulation of Fc gamma RIIIA in NK cells and in T cells expressing the Fc gamma RIII alpha chain in association with endogenous zeta 2 homodimers and devoid of other (CD3, CD2) transducing molecules. Our data indicate that treatment of these cells with protein tyrosine kinase inhibitors prevents not only Fc gamma RIIIA-induced protein tyrosine phosphorylation but also phosphatidylinositol 4,5 diphosphate hydrolysis and increased intracellular Ca2+ concentration, indicating a primary role of tyrosine kinase(s) in the induction of these early activation events. Occupancy of Fc gamma RIIIA by ligand results in phospholipase C (PLC)-gamma 1 tyrosine phosphorylation in NK cells and in Fc gamma RIIIA-transfected CD3-/CD2- T cells, and induces functional activation of p56lck in Fc gamma RIIIA alpha/zeta 2-transfected T cells, suggesting the possibility that the receptor-induced PLC-gamma 1 activation occurs upon phosphorylation of its tyrosine residues mediated by this kinase and is, at least in part, responsible for the signal transduction mediated via CD16 upon ligand binding.

Crosslinking of the low affinity immunoglobulin G (IgG) Fc receptor (Fc gamma R type III) on natural killer (NK) cells initiates antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity. During this process, Fc gamma R stimulation results in the rapid activation of phospholipase C (PLC), which hydrolyzes membrane phosphoinositides, generating inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate and sn-1,2-diacylglycerol as second messengers. We have recently reported that PLC activation after Fc gamma R stimulation can be inhibited by a protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) inhibitor. Based on the paradigm provided by the receptor tyrosine kinases, we investigated whether PLC-gamma 1 and/or PLC-gamma 2 are expressed in NK cells, and whether the PLC-gamma isoforms are tyrosine phosphorylated in response to Fc gamma R stimulation. Immunoblotting analyses with PLC-gamma 1- and PLC-gamma 2-specific antisera demonstrate that both isoforms are expressed in human NK cells. Furthermore, Fc gamma R crosslinking triggers the tyrosine phosphorylation of both PLC-gamma 1 and PLC-gamma 2 in these cells. Phosphorylation of both isoforms is detectable within 1 min, and returns to basal level within 30 min. Pretreatment with herbimycin A, a PTK inhibitor, blocked the Fc gamma R-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of PLC-gamma 1 and PLC-gamma 2, and the subsequent release of inositol phosphates. These results suggest that Fc gamma R-initiated phosphoinositide turnover in human NK cells is regulated by the tyrosine phosphorylation of PLC-gamma. More broadly, these observations demonstrate that nonreceptor PTK(s) activated by crosslinkage of a multisubunit receptor can phosphorylate both PLC-gamma isoforms.

Ligand-induced dimerization of growth factor receptors is crucial for stimulation of their intrinsic protein tyrosine kinase activity promoting receptor autophosphorylation by an intermolecular mechanism. Moreover, the suppressive and negative dominant action of defective epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) was shown to be caused by formation of inactive heterodimers with normal EGFR leading to diminished biological signaling. In this report we explore the structural requirements and functional significance of heterodimerization between EGFR and HER2. HER2 (also called c-erbB-2 or neu) is a member of the EGFR family whose natural ligand is still unknown. We show that in response to EGF, wild type EGFR and various EGFR mutants were able to undergo heterodimerization with HER2. Addition of EGF to transfected cells co-expressing HER2 with a kinase negative point mutant of EGFR (K721A) stimulated heterodimer formation, tyrosine phosphorylation of K721A and HER2, and tyrosine phosphorylation of one of their known substrates, phospholipase C gamma. However, the binding of EGF to transfected cells co-expressing HER2 together with another EGFR mutant CD533 (a deletion mutant lacking most of the cytoplasmic domain of EGFR) caused heterodimerization and inhibition of tyrosine kinase activity. It appears therefore that EGF-induced heterodimerization of EGFR and HER2 can promote either stimulatory or inhibitory influences on kinase activity. We propose that the nature of receptor interactions on the cell surface can either activate or inhibit the initiation of growth factor-controlled cellular signaling.

The mechanisms by which phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) and cAMP attenuate the hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns 4,5-P2) induced by ligation of the T-cell antigen receptor complex (TCR) was studied in the human Jurkat T-cell line. It has previously been shown that stimulation of Jurkat cells with antibodies to CD3, components of the TCR, elicits a rapid and transient phosphorylation of phospholipase C (PLC)-gamma 1, the predominant PLC isozyme in Jurkat cells, at multiple tyrosine residues and that such tyrosine phosphorylation leads to activation of PLC-gamma 1. Prior incubation of Jurkat cells with PMA or forskolin, which increases intracellular cAMP concentrations, prevented tyrosine phosphorylation of PLC-gamma 1 as well as the hydrolysis of PtdIns 4,5-P2 induced by ligation of CD3. Dose-response curves of PMA and of forskolin for the inhibition of PLC-gamma 1 tyrosine phosphorylation and of PtdIns 4,5-P2 hydrolysis were similar. These results suggest that the inhibition of PtdIns 4,5-P2 hydrolysis by PMA and cAMP is attributable to reduced tyrosine phosphorylation of PLC-gamma 1. Treatment of Jurkat cells with PMA or forskolin stimulated the phosphorylation of PLC-gamma 1 at serine 1248. PMA treatment also elicited the phosphorylation of PLC-gamma 1 at an unidentified serine site. Phosphopeptide map analysis indicated that the sites of PLC-gamma 1 phosphorylated in Jurkat cells treated with PMA and forskolin are the same as those phosphorylated in vitro by protein kinase C (PKC) and cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA), respectively. Stimulation of Jurkat cells with antibodies to CD3 also elicited phosphorylation of PLC-gamma 1 at serine 1248 and at the unidentified serine site phosphorylated in PLC-gamma 1 from PMA-treated cells. Thus, phosphorylation of PLC-gamma 1 by PKC or PKA at serine 1248 may modulate the interaction of PLC-gamma 1 with the protein tyrosine kinase or the protein tyrosine phosphatase; this altered interaction may, at least in part, be responsible for the decreased tyrosine phosphorylation of PLC-gamma 1 seen in PMA- and forskolin-treated Jurkat cells. Furthermore, in the absence of PMA, activation of PKC by diacylglycerol provides a negative feedback signal responsible for reducing the phosphotyrosine contents of PLC-gamma 1.

The TCR is a multimeric structure comprised of distinct Ag recognition and signal transduction components. Although none of the molecules that make up the TCR possess intrinsic protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) activity, stimulation of T cells via the TCR results in the rapid appearance of newly tyrosine phosphorylated proteins in cell lysates. Evidence suggests ligation of the TCR induces activation of a PTK that may be a member of the src family. One early consequence of this TCR-mediated PTK activation is the phosphorylation of the gamma 1 isoform of phospholipase C. This phosphorylation event is associated with increased enzymatic activity resulting in the hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol 4,5 bisphosphate into two second messengers, inositol 1,4,5 trisphosphate and diacylglycerol. Recently, our laboratory and others have isolated mutant T cells that lack surface expression of CD45, the major surface tyrosine phosphatase expressed on lymphoid cells. Stimulation of the TCR on these cells fails to result in the expected activation events. We demonstrate that reconstitution of surface expression of the 180-kDa isoform of CD45 by gene transfer into a CD45-deficient mutant of the Jurkat T cell leukemic line restores the ability of the TCR to couple fully to its signal transduction machinery. These results support the role of CD45 tyrosine phosphatase activity in regulating the TCR-activated PTK.

Two novel sites of autophosphorylation were localized to the C-terminal tail of the PDGF beta-receptor. To evaluate the importance of these phosphorylation sites, receptor mutants in which Tyr1009, Tyr1021 or both were replaced with phenylalanine residues, were expressed in porcine aortic endothelial (PAE) cells. These mutants were similar to the wild type receptor with regard to protein tyrosine kinase activity and ability to induce mitogenicity in response to PDGF-BB. However, both the Y1009F and Y1021F mutants showed a decreased ability to mediate association with and the tyrosine phosphorylation of phospholipase C-gamma (PLC-gamma) compared to the wild type PDGF beta-receptor; in the case of the Y1009F/Y1021F double mutant, no association or phosphorylation of PLC-gamma could be detected. These data show that tyrosine phosphorylation of PLC-gamma is dependent on autophosphorylation of the PDGF beta-receptor at Tyr1009 and Tyr1021.

Several lines of evidence implicate a regulatory tyrosine phosphorylation in the activation of phospholipase C (PLC) by the T cell antigen receptor (TCR). These include studies using inhibitors of protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs). In Jurkat T cells expressing the heterologous human muscarinic receptor (HM1), PLC activity can be induced by either the TCR or HM1. HM1 activates PLC via a guanine nucleotide binding protein. We have studied the selectivity of the effects of the PTK inhibitors, herbimycin A and genistein, in this system. The results indicate that these inhibitors have different mechanisms of action, and suggest that herbimycin A, but not genistein, is a specific inhibitor of PTKs in T cells. Herbimycin A markedly inhibited both the resting and induced levels of phosphotyrosine-containing proteins, including the gamma 1 isozyme of PLC and the zeta chain of the TCR, and prevented activation of PLC by anti-TCR mAb. Herbimycin A did not inhibit activation of PLC by HM1. Genistein had a much less pronounced effect than herbimycin A on the appearance of tyrosine phosphoproteins. Moreover, genistein inhibited activation of PLC by both the TCR and HM1, and inhibition was only partial. Genistein was cytotoxic and markedly inhibited protein synthesis in both Jurkat cells and human peripheral lymphocytes. Herbimycin A was not cytotoxic. These findings confirm the role of a regulatory tyrosine phosphorylation in activation of PLC by the TCR. Herbimycin A was a selective inhibitor of a subclass of PTKs in Jurkat cells. In contrast, inhibition of signal transduction and later events in T cells by genistein may be due to effects other than direct inhibition of PTK activity.

It has been proposed that during T cell receptor antigen recognition, CD4- or CD8-p56lck molecules interact with the T cell antigen receptor-CD3 complex (TCR-CD3) to phosphorylate various undefined substrates, which then initiate signal transduction through the TCR-CD3 complex. The ability of CD4 to modulate the TCR-CD3-induced increase in intracellular Ca2+, [Ca2+]i, and substrate tyrosine phosphorylation was studied in mutants of the human leukemic T cell line HPB-ALL characterized by their low expression of the TCR-CD3 complex on the cell surface. In TCR-CD3low cells, in which CD3-zeta was found to be associated with the TCR-CD3 complex, cross-linking CD3 with CD4 resulted in a profile of calcium mobilization, CD3-zeta, and phospholipase C-gamma 1 tyrosine phosphorylation similar to that observed in HPB-ALL cells, although the magnitude of generalized substrate tyrosine phosphorylation appeared to be smaller, as compared with wild-type cells. Responses were weak or absent when CD3 was cross-linked alone. In contrast, in a mutant in which association of CD3-zeta 2 with the TCR-CD3 was defective, cross-linking of CD3 with CD4 had a weaker effect on any of the activation parameters tested. These experiments showed that the presence of CD3-zeta 2 in the TCR-CD3 complex is of critical importance for the ability of CD4 to enhance early transducing signals inside the cell. The data also suggest that CD4-associated protein tyrosine kinase p56lck could up-regulate defective CD3-mediated induction of phospholipase C activity by increasing tyrosine phosphorylation of phospholipase C-gamma 1.

Cross-linking the antigen receptor on B cells results in a rapid increase in protein tyrosine kinase activity as detected by increased phosphorylation on tyrosine residues of multiple proteins. Although the identity of most of this substrates remains unknown, some have been proposed. One possible substrate of the antigen receptor-associated kinase is phospholipase C (PLC). Since multiple isoforms of PLC have been identified, we have studied which isoforms are targets of the antigen receptor. PLC-gamma 1 and PLC-gamma 2 but not PLC-beta 1 or PLC-delta 1 were detected in human B cells. Immunoprecipitation with antibodies against PLC-gamma 1 or PLC-gamma 2 and subsequent Western blotting with anti-phosphotyrosine antibodies revealed that both PLC-gamma 1 and PLC-gamma 2 are tyrosine phosphorylated in stimulated but not in resting B cells. This was confirmed by experiments whereby B cell lysates were immunoprecipitated with anti-phosphotyrosine antibody and subsequently blotted with antibodies against PLC-gamma 1 or PLC-gamma 2. Further, the specific protein tyrosine kinase inhibitors, tyrphostins, which block phospholipase-C activation and proliferation of B cells also inhibited tyrosine phosphorylation on both PLC-gamma 1 and PLC-gamma 2. We conclude that both isoforms PLC-gamma 1 and PLC-gamma 2 are targets of the antigen receptor-associated protein tyrosine kinase.

The effects of the expression of the protein tyrosine kinase pp60v-src on endothelin- and thrombin-stimulated inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) production and calcium responses were investigated in Rat-1 fibroblasts. The ability of endothelin-1 to induce the accumulation of these second messengers was dramatically amplified by v-src transformation, with 6- and 3-fold enhancements of the peak Ins(1,4,5)P3 and peak calcium responses, respectively. In contrast, thrombin-dependent responses were slightly reduced following v-src transformation, demonstrating that the augmentation of endothelin-stimulated signal transduction is a selective effect. The magnitude of the stimulated accumulation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 presumably depends upon both the functional activation of phospholipase C to produce Ins(1,4,5)P3, and the activity of the enzymes that metabolize Ins(1,4,5)P3. Although the metabolism of Ins(1,4,5)P3 was strikingly altered by expression of pp60v-src, with a bias towards the production of higher inositol polyphosphates that is consistent with an activated Ins(1,4,5)P3 3-kinase, this change could not account for the marked increase in endothelin-stimulated signaling induced by v-src transformation. This suggests that an effect of pp60v-src is expressed at the level of the plasma membrane, through an interaction with one or more components in the receptor/guanine nucleotide binding protein (G protein)/phospholipase C system that transduces the endothelin signal into Ins(1,4,5)P3 production. Preparation of membranes from normal and v-src-transformed cells showed that, while there was no change in the number of high-affinity endothelin binding sites, the release of Ins(1,4,5)P3 in response to guanine nucleotides and endothelin-1 was significantly increased following v-src transformation. In contrast, the Ins(1,4,5)P3 responses to thrombin and high Ca2+ concentrations were unaffected by transformation. Thus the selective interactions within the G protein system that couples the endothelin receptor to phospholipase C are potential sites at which the v-src transformation process may act to amplify endothelin-dependent Ins(1,4,5)P3 production.
