Gastrin/cholecystokinin-binding proteins were purified using the column affinity chromatography on immobilized pig tetragastrin and cholecystokinin. Immunoblotting analysis of different human tissue extracts with specific antisera obtained against gastrin-binding proteins was performed. It was found that high molecular weight polypeptide zones of 120 kDa and 35 kDa were characteristic of the brain only. Autoantisera of patients with type A gastric disease reacted with some gastrin/cholecystokinin-binding proteins in human brain and mucosa including human brain polypeptide of 120 kDa. It is supposed that there are neurospecific gastrin-binding proteins (possibly gastrin/cholecystokinin receptors in the brain).

Large increases in tyrosine phosphorylation have been detected in subcellular matrixes isolated from lectin treated human lymphocytes. In lectin stimulated cells proteins of molecular weight 105, 75, 58 and 35 kDa contained phosphotyrosine (P-tyr) whereas non-stimulated cells had no 105 and low levels of P-tyr in proteins of 75, 58 and 35 kDa. In stimulated cells increased tyrosine kinase activity was also shown using gastrin as substrate. In both stimulated and non-stimulated cells the 58 kDa phosphoprotein was the most heavily labelled, after partial proteolysis of the 58 kDa different phosphopeptides were generated. A peptide with a sequence analogous to the autophosphorylated tyrosine site of pp60src inhibited tyrosine phosphorylation in stimulated cells. The lymphocyte system provides a useful tool to study normal tyrosine protein kinases and their role in cellular proliferation.

The cellular localization of the 35 kDa, low molecular mass acid metallophosphatase (LMW AcPase) from the frog (Rana esculenta) liver and its activity towards P-Ser and P-Tyr phosphorylated peptides were studied. This enzyme was localized to the cytoplasm of hepatocytes but did not appear in other cells of liver tissue (endothelium, macrophages, blood cells). This LMW AcPase does not display activity towards (32)P-phosphorylase a under conditions standard for the enzymes of PPP family. Proteins containing P-Ser: rabbit (32)P-phosphorylasea and phosvitin are hydrolysed only at acidic pH and are poor substrates for this enzyme. The frog AcPase is not inhibited by okadaic acid and F(-) ions, the Ser/Thr protein phosphatase inhibitors. Moreover, the frog enzyme does not cross-react with specific antisera directed against N-terminal fragment of human PP2A and C-terminal conserved fragment of the eukaryotic PP2A catalytic subunits. These results exclude LMW AcPase from belonging to Ser/Thr protein phosphatases: PP1c or PP2Ac. In addition to P-Tyr, this enzyme hydrolyses efficiently at acidic pH P-Tyr phosphorylated peptides (hirudin and gastrin fragments). K(m) value for the hirudin fragment (7.55 +/- 1.59 x 10(-6) M) is 2-3 orders of magnitude lower in comparison with other substrates tested. The enzyme is inhibited competitively by typical inhibitors of protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPases): sodium orthovanadate, molybdate and tungstate. These results may suggest that the LMW AcPase of frog liver can act as PTPase in vivo. A different cellular localization and different response to inhibition by tetrahedral oxyanions (molybdate, vanadate and tungstate) provide further evidence that LMW AcPase of frog liver is distinct from the mammalian tartrate-resistant acid phosphatases.
