Protein tyrosine phosphorylation was studied in macrophages and fibroblasts to identify putative components of post-receptor mitogenic pathways that might be functionally conserved in different cell types. Nondenaturing conditions were established for the approximately quantitative recovery of anti-phosphotyrosine antibody (alpha PY)-reactive proteins from cells. A common, 57-kDa alpha PY-reactive protein was identified by V8 protease peptide mapping in colony-stimulating factor-1 (CSF-1)- or granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF)-stimulated BAC1.2F5 macrophages, in platelet-derived growth factor-stimulated NIH-3T3 cells, and in CSF-1-stimulated NIH-3T3 cells expressing the c-fms/CSF-1 receptor. The 57-kDa protein was phosphorylated on serine and tyrosine and was the only alpha PY-reactive protein band whose phosphorylation was reproducibly increased in GM-CSF-stimulated cells. The effect of the growth factors on the tyrosine phosphorylation of the 57-kDa protein could be mimicked by treatment of the cells with orthovanadate, a phosphotyrosine protein phosphatase inhibitor. In the absence of growth factors, tyrosine phosphorylation of the 57-kDa protein was higher in v-fms or c-fms (F969, S301)-transformed NIH-3T3 cells than in untransformed NIH-3T3 (c-fms) and NIH-3T3 (c-fms, F969) cells. These data indicate that the 57-kDa protein is a common target for growth factor-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation and potentially important for growth factor mitogenic signaling.

The mechanism of action of the hemopoietic growth factor, murine interleukin-3 (mIL-3), was investigated using an mIL-3-dependent multipotential hematopoietic cell line, B6SUtA1. Murine granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (mGM-CSF) was as potent as mIL-3 in stimulating these cells. In addition, sodium orthovanadate, an inhibitor of phosphotyrosine phosphatase, and 12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate (TPA), a known activator of protein kinase C, also stimulated DNA synthesis in these cells, suggesting that protein phosphorylation might be involved in the mechanism of action of mIL-3 and mGM-CSF. To assess this possibility, intact B6SUtA1 cells exposed for brief periods to mIL-3, mGM-CSF, and TPA were analyzed for changes in phosphorylation patterns using metabolic 32P-labeling and antibodies to phosphotyrosine. Both mIL-3 and mGM-CSF induced the serine-specific phosphorylation of a 68-Kd cytosolic protein, whereas all three agents stimulated the serine-specific phosphorylation of a 68-Kd membrane protein. Furthermore, mIL-3 stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of the 68-Kd membrane protein, as well as of 140-, 90-, 55, and 40-Kd proteins. The 90-Kd protein was also tyrosine phosphorylated in response to mGM-CSF. These phosphotyrosine containing proteins were not detected in TPA-treated cells. These results indicate that protein phosphorylations on tyrosine and serine residues occur in B6SUtA1 cells following short-term incubation with mIL-3 or mGM-CSF and that most of these phosphorylation events are mediated by kinases other than protein kinase C (PkC).

Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to identify protein-tyrosine phosphatases (PTPases) in a human leukemic cell line, F-36P. Degenerate primers deduced from the highly conserved amino acid sequences in the catalytic domain of known PTPases were used for amplification. Among 16 clones sequenced, 13 were identical to known PTPases, whereas the other three clones were disclosed to encode novel PTPases. The expression pattern of one of the three newly identified PTPases, designated as F-36-12, was further analysed. In murine tissues, the F-36-12 message was predominantly expressed in brain, kidney, and intestine, and was weakly expressed in heart and thymus. In human hematopoietic cell lines, the F-36-12 message was preferentially expressed in a promyelocytic leukemic cell line, HL60, and two factor-dependent leukemic cell lines, F-36P and F-36E, that are dependent on granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor or interleukin-3 and erythropoietin, respectively. The transcript was approximately 8 kb long and the message level in HL60 cells was slightly increased at 24 hours and then slowly declined when treated with dimethyl sulfoxide for granulocyte differentiation, while the message level was rapidly decreased when treated with 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate for monocyte/macrophage differentiation. These results show that several PTPases including three novel ones are expressed in a human leukemic cell line and that the particular PTPase, F-36-12, might be involved in the differentiation process in HL60 cells.

Phosphotyrosine phosphatases (PTPases) regulate cellular metabolic activation by reversing the effects of tyrosine kinases activated earlier in intracellular signaling pathways. We coupled fluorescence-activated cell sorter analysis using anti-CD45 monoclonal antibody with direct measurements of enzyme activity in resolved subcellular fractions to define mechanisms that potentially regulate the availability and activity of CD45-PTPase on neutrophil plasma membranes. Neutrophils in freshly obtained blood as well as neutrophils freshly isolated from blood were found to possess detectable levels of plasma membrane CD45 as assessed by immunofluorescence. However, plasma membranes from these cells were essentially devoid of PTPase catalytic activity, which was largely confined to the specific granules. Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) upregulated both the catalytic and antigenic components of CD45-PTPase on the plasma membrane of these cells. Upregulation was associated with a shift in the particulate subcellular PTPase catalytic activity from the specific granule fraction to the plasma membrane fraction. The tyrosine kinase inhibitor genistein abrogated GM-CSF-promoted upregulation of plasma membrane CD45 PTPase but did not prevent the GM-CSF-dependent decrease in specific granule catalytic activity. Anti-CD45 antibody immunoprecipitated PTPase activity from both specific granules of resting cells and plasma membranes of GM-CSF-treated cells. However, antiphosphotyrosine immunoprecipitated only activity that had translocated to the plasma membrane, suggesting a role for CD45 phosphorylation in translocation. Western analysis confirmed the tyrosine phosphorylation of CD45 in plasma membranes of GM-CSF-treated neutrophils. Preincubation of plasma membranes of GM-CSF-stimulated neutrophils with cytosol from resting cells resulted in a time- and temperature-dependent loss in membrane PTPase as a consequence of the effects of a cytosolic inactivator. Cytosol obtained from stimulated neutrophils possessed substantially reduced levels of this PTPase inactivator. We conclude that activity of the catalytic component of membrane PTPase in circulating neutrophils is regulated by a cytosolic inactivator. Upon stimulation, intact CD45 PTPase is incorporated into the plasma membrane by a process that requires tyrosine phosphorylation. As a result of inhibition of the cytosolic inactivator, the translocated PTPase expresses full activity, thereby amplifying the potential regulatory influence of the enzyme on the cells' functional response.

Five tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins with molecular masses of 180, 145, 116, 100, and 70 kD are associated with phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) in erythropoietin (Epo)-stimulated UT-7 cells. The 180- and 70-kD proteins have been previously shown to be IRS2 and the Epo receptor. In this report, we show that the 116-kD protein is the IRS2-related molecular adapter, GAB1. Indeed, Epo induced the transient tyrosine phosphorylation of GAB1 in UT-7 cells. Both kinetics and Epo dose-response experiments showed that GAB1 tyrosine phosphorylation was a direct consequence of Epo receptor activation. After tyrosine phosphorylation, GAB1 associated with the PI 3-kinase, the phosphotyrosine phosphatase SHP2, the phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5 trisphosphate 5-phosphatase SHIP, and the molecular adapter SHC. GAB1 was also associated with the molecular adapter GRB2 in unstimulated cells, and this association dramatically increased after Epo stimulation. Thus, GAB1 could be a scaffold protein able to couple the Epo receptor activation with the stimulation of several intracellular signaling pathways. Epo-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of GAB1 was also observed in normal human erythroid progenitors isolated from cord blood. Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and thrombopoietin (TPO) also induced the tyrosine phosphorylation of GAB1 in UT-7 cells, indicating that this molecule participates in the signal transduction of several cytokine receptors.
