The receptors for insulin and PDGF are tyrosine kinases that mediate distinct effects in identical cellular backgrounds. Each receptor must therefore engage a unique subset of the available signaling elements--at least partly through the selection of proteins with src-homology 2 domains (SH2 proteins). Autophosphorylation sites in the PDGFr directly bind SH2 proteins, whereas activation of the insulin receptor leads to phosphorylation of IRS-1, which in turn binds SH2 proteins. In HIR 3.5 cells, which contain similar numbers of PDGF and insulin receptors, insulin, but not PDGF, stimulated tyrosyl phosphorylation of IRS-1. Similarly, insulin, but not PDGF, treatment of HIR 3.5 stimulated the association of IRS-1 with PtdIns 3'-kinase, although PDGF stimulated the association of PtdIns 3'-kinase with the tyrosine-phosphorylated PDGFr. Association with IRS-1 activated PtdIns 3'-kinase more effectively than association with the PDGFr. Whereas the PDGFr associated with PtdIns 3'-kinase, ras-GAP, GRB-2, and phospholipase C gamma, only GRB-2 and PtdIns 3'-kinase associated with IRS-1. Moreover, PDGF, but not insulin, caused tyrosine phosphorylation of phospholipase C gamma in HIR 3.5 cells. Thus, the insulin signal differs from that of PDGF by the insertion of a cytosolic, nonreceptor SH2 domain docking protein (IRS-1). Furthermore, IRS-1 binds a different subset of SH2 domain-containing proteins than does the PDGFr and regulates at least one common element (PtdIns 3'-kinase) differently than the PDGFr. These results support the hypothesis that IRS-1 differentiates the signals generated by the insulin receptor and PDGFr tyrosine kinases by binding and regulating a specific subset of SH2 domain-containing signaling molecules.

There is a 3-aa insertion in the transmembrane (TM) domain of the p68gag-ros protein-tyrosine kinase encoded by avian sarcoma virus UR2 v-ros as compared with that of the protooncogene c-ros. The effect of this insertion on biological function and biochemical properties of v-Ros protein was investigated by deleting these 3 aa to generate the mutant TM1. This mutant has greatly reduced transforming, mitogenic, and tumorigenic activities despite the fact that the protein-tyrosine kinase activity and cell-surface localization of TM1 protein are unaffected. However, unlike UR2 protein, mutant TM1 protein becomes glycosylated, is differentially phosphorylated, and fails to induce tyrosine phosphorylation of a 88-kDa protein and a major substrate of insulin receptor, insulin receptor substrate 1. The TM1 protein is unable to associate with phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and fails to promote association of insulin receptor substrate 1 with phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase. By contrast, tyrosine phosphorylation of Shc protein and phospholipase C gamma as well as interaction of Grb2 protein with Shc and SOS protein signaling components are unaltered in the TM1 infected cells. Our results show that the TM-domain sequence of p68gag-ros profoundly affects its function and substrate interaction. The mutant defines a signaling pathway including phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, insulin receptor substrate 1, and possibly an 88-kDa protein that does not overlap the Ras pathway and is important for full transforming and mitogenic potency of v-ros protein-tyrosine kinase.

Insulin causes the activation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) through complexation of tyrosine-phosphorylated YMXM motifs on insulin receptor substrate 1 with the Src homology 2 domains of PI 3-kinase. Previous studies with inhibitors have indicated that activation of PI 3-kinase is necessary for the stimulation of glucose transport in adipocytes. Here, we investigate whether this activation is sufficient for this effect. Short peptides containing two tyrosine-phosphorylated or thiophosphorylated YMXM motifs potently activated PI 3-kinase in the cytosol from 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Introduction of the phosphatase-resistant thiophosphorylated peptide into 3T3-L1 adipocytes through permeabilization with Staphylococcus aureus alpha-toxin stimulated PI 3-kinase as strongly as insulin. However, under the same conditions the peptide increased glucose transport into the permeabilized cells only 20% as well as insulin. Determination of the distribution of the glucose transporter isotype GLUT4 by confocal immunofluorescence showed that GLUT4 translocation to the plasma membrane can account for the effect of the peptide. These results suggest that one or more other insulin-triggered signaling pathways, besides the PI 3-kinase one, participate in the stimulation of glucose transport.

src homology 2 (SH2) domains of intracellular signaling molecules such as phospholipase C-gamma and phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase-associated protein p85 represent recognition motifs for specific phosphotyrosine-containing regions on activated growth factor receptors. The binding of SH2 domains to activated growth factor receptors controls the interaction with signaling molecules and the regulation of their activities. In this report, we describe the kinetic parameters and binding affinities of SH2 domains of p85 toward short phosphotyrosine-containing peptides with the amino acid sequence motif YMXM, derived from a major insulin receptor substrate, IRS-1, by using real time biospecific interaction analysis (BIAcore). Associations were specific and of very high affinity, with dissociation constants of 0.3 to 3 nM, between phosphopeptides and the two separate SH2 domains contained within p85. Nonphosphorylated peptides showed no measurable binding, and the interactions were specific for the primary sequence very close to the phosphotyrosine residue. Moreover, the interactions between phosphopeptides and SH2 domains of other signaling molecules were of much lower affinity. Interestingly, the binding of the SH2 domains to the tyrosine-phosphorylated peptides was of high affinity as a result of a very high on rate, of 3 x 10(7) to 40 x 10(7)/M/s; at the same time, the rate of dissociation, of 0.11 to 0.19/s, was rapid, allowing for rapid exchange of associating proteins with the tyrosine phosphorylation sites.

Chronic treatment of mice with insulin results in hypertrophy and hyperplasia of the parotid and submandibular glands (Wang et al.: 1994, Proc Soc Exp Biol Med 205:353-361). Hyperplasia of the parotid gland is mediated by the elevation of tyrosine phosphorylation of phospholipase C gamma, p21ras-GTPase activating protein (p21ras-GAP) and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase. These proteins were found to be associated with the insulin receptor substrate-1 most likely through src homology (SH2) domains of these proteins. There was also a transient increase in intracellular cAMP and protein kinase A during the first day of treatment which declined by Day 3 to near control values. Protein kinase C activity, on the other hand, remained elevated for the 3-day injection regimen. Thus, acinar cell proliferation induced by insulin requires activation of many of the same signaling components as other tyrosine kinase possessing growth factor receptors.

The tyrosines in the cytoplasmic domain of an oncogenic human insulin-like growth factor I receptor (gag-IGFR) were systematically mutated to phenylalanines to investigate the role of those tyrosines in the enzymatic and biological function of the gag-IGFR. Our results indicate that tyrosines 1131, 1135, 1136, and 1221 are important for the receptor protein-tyrosine kinase (PTK) activity. However, mutation of Tyr-1136 only slightly affects the kinase activity but dramatically reduces the transforming ability and overall substrate phosphorylation, in particular, annexin II, which is strongly phosphorylated by the gag-IGFR but not by the Phe-1136 mutant. Single mutation of either Tyr-943 or Tyr-950 resulted in significantly reduced phosphorylation of the receptor but not on its PTK activity or transforming ability. Tyr-950 together with its surrounding sequence is involved in mediating the interaction between the gag-IGFR and insulin receptor substrate 1. Our data also suggest that Tyr-1316 is involved in phosphorylation of phospholipase C-gamma, which is, however, not important for cell transforming activity. Overall, our study has identified several tyrosine residues of IGFR important for its PTK activity and substrate interaction. The transforming potential of the gag-IGFR correlates well with its ability to phosphorylate overall cellular substrates and to activate phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase via insulin receptor substrate 1.

The intraperitoneal injection of a vanadate/H2O2 mixture (peroxovanadate) into mice resulted within minutes in the appearance of numerous tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins in the liver and kidney. These effects are presumably due to the inhibition of phosphotyrosine phosphatase activity. Three of the tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins have been identified as the receptors for epidermal growth factor, insulin, and hepatocyte growth factor. The injection of peroxovanadate also enhanced the tyrosine phosphorylation of many of the proteins known to function downstream of these receptors, including SHC, signal transducer and activator of transcription (Stat) 1alpha,beta, Stat 3, Stat 5, phospholipase C-gamma, insulin receptor substrate 1, GTPase-activating protein, beta-catenin, gamma-catenin, p120cas, SHP-1, and SHP-2. The administration of peroxovanadate also induced nuclear translocation of a number of tyrosine-phosphorylated Stat proteins. In addition, the global effects on tyrosine phosphorylation permitted the detection of a number of novel intracellular protein interactions, including an association of Tyk2 with beta-catenin. The in situ administration of peroxovanadate may prove useful in the search for novel tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins and the identification of new interactions between previously identified tyrosine-phosphorylated substrates.

In response to insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I), neonatal rat cardiac myocytes exhibit a hypertrophic response. The elucidation of the IGF-I signal transduction system in these cells remains unknown. We show here that cardiac myocytes present a single class of high affinity receptors (12,446 +/- 3,669 binding sites/cell) with a dissociation constant of 0.36 +/- 0.10 nM. Two different beta-subunits of IGF-I receptor were detected, and their autophosphorylation was followed by increases in the phosphotyrosine content of extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERKs), insulin receptor substrate 1, phospholipase C-gamma1, and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase. IGF-I transiently activates c-Raf in cultured neonatal cardiac myocytes, whereas A-raf is activated much less than c-Raf. Two peaks of ERK activity (ERK1 and ERK2) were resolved in cardiac myocytes treated with IGF-I by fast protein liquid chromatography, both being stimulated by IGF-I (with EC50 values for the stimulation of ERK1 and ERK2 by IGF-I of 0.10 and 0. 12 nM, respectively). Maximal activation of ERK2 (12-fold) and ERK1 (8.3-fold) activities was attained after a 5-min exposure to IGF-I. Maximal activation of p90 S6 kinase by IGF-I was achieved after 10 min, and then the activity decreased slowly. Interestingly, IGF-I stimulates incorporation of [3H]phenylalanine (1.6-fold) without any effect on [3H]thymidine incorporation. These data suggest that IGF-I activates multiple signal transduction pathways in cardiac myocytes some of which may be relevant to the hypertrophic response of the heart.

Overexpression of surrogate receptors [epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor (EGFR) and platelet-derived growth factor receptor] in adipocytes has demonstrated that multiple signaling pathways may lead to GLUT4-mediated glucose uptake. These implicated pathways function independently of IRS-1 phosphorylation and PI3-kinase activation. In addition, we previously demonstrated that EGFR tyrosyl autophosphorylation is required to stimulate GLUT4-mediated glucose transport in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. This observation suggests that signaling molecules that are dependent on EGFR autophosphorylation, such as phospholipase C (PLC), may lie in the signaling pathway to glucose transport. As PLC has been implicated in glucose transport by several clinical and basic mechanistic studies, we investigated whether EGFR signaling may promote glucose transport via modulation of PLC activity. Activation of EGFR overexpressing 3T3-L1 adipocytes leads to a 3.4 +/- 1.2-fold stimulation of PLC activity over basal levels vs. only 1.06 +/- 0.01-fold stimulation by insulin. Pharmacological inhibition of PLC by 50 microM U73122 reduced phosphoinositide accumulation by 79.2 +/- 16.9% and resulted in a concomitant 56.0 +/- 12.7% decrease in EGF-induced glucose transport. This inhibition of glucose transport by U73122 was specific, because the inactive congener, U73343, failed to block EGF-induced glucose transport. Despite the low levels of insulin-induced PLC activity, insulin-stimulated glucose transport activity was similarly inhibited by U73122 (55.9 +/- 13.1% inhibition). Inhibition of PLC activation did not impair either EGF- or insulin-induced activation of glycogen synthase or incorporation of glucose into lipid, supporting the hypothesis that both EGF- and insulin-induced glucose disposal can be independent of GLUT4-mediated glucose transport. The diminution of glucose transport secondary to inhibition of PLC activity was reflected by a decrease in GLUT4 translocation to the plasma membrane upon either EGF or insulin stimulation. These results are consistent with either a permissive or an active role for PLC activity in the translocation of GLUT4 to the plasma membrane.

SH2 domain proteins transmit intracellular signals initiated by activated tyrosine kinase-linked receptors. Recent three-dimensional structures suggest mechanisms by which tandem SH2 domains might confer higher specificity than individual SH2 domains. To test this, binding studies were conducted with tandem domains from the five signaling enzymes: phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase p85, ZAP-70, Syk, SHP-2, and phospholipase C-gamma1. Bisphosphorylated TAMs (tyrosine-based activation motifs) were derived from biologically relevant sites in platelet-derived growth factor, T cell, B cell, and high affinity IgE receptors and the receptor substrates IRS-1 (insulin receptor substrate-1) and SHPS-1/SIRP. Each tandem SH2 domain binds a distinct TAM corresponding to its appropriate biological partner with highest affinity (0.5-3.0 nM). Alternative TAMs bind the tandem SH2 domains with 1,000- to >10,000-fold lower affinity than biologically relevant TAMs. This level of specificity is significantly greater than the approximately 20-50-fold typically seen for individual SH2 domains. We conclude that high biological specificity is conferred by the simultaneous interaction of two SH2 domains in a signaling enzyme with bisphosphorylated TAMs in activated receptors and substrates.
