Newly isolated strains of avian sarcoma virus, S1 and S2, were shown to have the transduced cellular src gene as their viral transforming gene (Yamagishi et al., Virology 137:266-275, 1984). In this work, the S1 and S2 genomes were molecularly cloned, and the junction sequences between the viral genomes and the c-src genes and the complete nucleotide sequences of the v-src genes transduced in these viruses were determined. Data on the junction sequences suggested that 5' recombination had occurred between the 5'-noncoding region of c-src and the 5' region of the gag sequence encoding p19 in both viruses and that 3' recombination had occurred in the last coding exon of c-src with either the middle portion of the env sequence encoding gp85 for S1 or the 3' portion of pol coding for reverse transcriptase for S2. Comparison of the amino acid sequences of the S1 and S2 src products deduced from the nucleotide sequences (pp62S1-src and pp62S2-src with that of c-src protein (pp60c-src) indicated that in pp62S1-src the 8 carboxy-terminal amino acid residues of the total of 533 in pp60c-src are replaced by 43 residues translated from the env sequence at the wrong frame. In pp62S2-src, on the other hand, the 14 carboxy-terminal amino acids of pp60c-src are replaced by the 38 carboxy-terminal residues of reverse transcriptase. The mechanism of c-src transduction and the structural changes necessary for pp60c-src activation are discussed.

Analysis of the biological and biochemical activities of pp60recombinant-src proteins encoded by 12 carboxyl-terminal mutants showed that a wide family of alternate src carboxyl termini permit complete transforming and kinase activities. src proteins having carboxyl termini which are up to 10 amino acids longer than that of pp60c-src (17 amino acids longer than that of pp60v-src) still permit transformation. Transformation-positive mutations preserve leucine-516, a residue which is highly conserved in protein-tyrosine kinase sequences; removal causes in vivo protein instability. Successive deletion mutants show that this residue is at the boundary of a region required for kinase activity. pp60src which is truncated just outside this point still transforms cells and binds both pp50 and pp90 cellular proteins.

The lck proto-oncogene encodes a lymphocyte-specific member of the src family of protein tyrosine kinases. Here we demonstrate that pp56lck is phosphorylated in vivo at a carboxy-terminal tyrosine residue (Tyr-505) analogous to Tyr-527 of pp60c-src. Substitution of phenylalanine for tyrosine at this position resulted in increased phosphorylation of a second tyrosine residue (Tyr-394) and was associated with an increase in apparent kinase activity. In addition, this single point mutation unmasked the oncogenic potential of pp56lck in NIH 3T3 cell transformation assays. Viewed in the context of similar results obtained with pp60c-src, it is likely that the enzymatic activity and transforming ability of all src-family protein tyrosine kinases can be regulated by carboxy-terminal tyrosine phosphorylation. We further demonstrate that overexpression of pp56lck in the murine T-cell lymphoma LSTRA as a result of a retroviral insertion event produces a kinase protein that despite wild-type primary structure is nevertheless hypophosphorylated at Tyr-505. Thus, control of normal growth in this lymphoid cell line may have been abrogated through acquisition of a posttranslationally activated version of pp56lck.

We raised antibodies in rabbits against the amino-terminal portion of the viral yes protein produced in bacteria with the use of an expression vector based on the lac operon. The anti-yes serum thus obtained precipitated P90gag-yes from Yamaguchi 73 virus-transformed chicken embryo fibroblasts, and this immunoprecipitation was blocked by the purified antigen. The anti-yes serum did not recognize viral src, fps, or fgr proteins. Affinity-purified anti-yes immunoglobulin G (IgG) precipitated two proteins of 59 and 62 kilodaltons from lysates of normal chicken embryo fibroblasts. Two-dimensional tryptic peptide mapping showed that these proteins are closely related to P90gag-yes and that they are different from pp60c-src. Similar to P90gag-yes, the 59- and 62-kilodalton proteins were phosphorylated exclusively on tyrosine in an in vitro kinase reaction, whereas in vivo they were phosphorylated on serine and, to a lesser extent, on tyrosine as well. Expression of the 59- and 62-kilodalton proteins, determined by the immune complex kinase assay, was relatively high in brain, retina, kidney, and liver. The presence in normal chicken embryo fibroblasts and in chicken kidney of two transcripts, 3.7 and 3.9 kilobases in length, that hybridize with a yes-specific DNA probe, as well as the two proteins recognized by anti-yes IgG, suggests either differential splicing of cellular yes gene transcripts or the existence of another yes-related gene.

pp60c-src was localized in the cerebellum of developing chicken embryos by immunoperoxidase staining with antisera raised against bacterially expressed pp60v-src. Immunoreactivity (IR) appeared in the cerebellum of the chicken embryos at the time of neuronal differentiation. pp60c-src IR was detected in regions of the developing cerebellum where processes of developing neurons and glia are located. In the early embryo (stage 17), pp60c-src IR was localized in the marginal zone of the cerebellar plate. By stage 40, pp60c-src IR was localized in the process-rich molecular layer of the cerebellum and between the cells of the developing internal granular layer. Cell bodies of cerebellar neurons did not show pp60c-src IR at any stage of development. Mitotically active neuroepithelial cells of the metencephalon did not express pp60c-src before the onset of differentiation in the early embryo, nor did proliferating cells of the external granular layer express pp60c-src at later stages. Although it is not possible to ascertain whether pp60c-src is localized in developing neurons or glia at the light microscope level, the time of its appearance and pattern of distribution in the molecular layer is suggestive of a localization within the developing neuronal processes which compose the bulk of this layer. Biochemical analyses of pp60c-src in the developing cerebellum by the immune complex protein kinase activity and sensitivity of the kinase to inhibition by P1,P4-di(adenosine-5')tetraphosphate confirmed that the expression of pp60c-src coincided with the time of neuronal differentiation. We conclude from these results that in the central nervous systems, pp60c-src may be more important in an aspect of cell differentiation or a mature neuronal function than in the proliferation of neuronal or glial precursors.

Chicken embryo tissues were examined for the expression of pp60c-src, the normal cellular homolog of the transforming protein of Rous sarcoma virus. Three assays, including a solid-phase radioimmunoassay, a competitive radioimmunoprecipitation assay, and an immune complex protein kinase assay, were employed. Elevated levels of pp60c-src were detected in lysates from several neural tissues, including brain, retina, and spinal ganglia. Other tissues contained 8- to 10-fold-lower levels of pp60c-src, levels comparable to those found in chicken embryo fibroblasts. Expression of pp60c-src in brain tissues was also shown to vary with the developmental stage of the embryo.

We contrasted the protein kinase activities of pp60v-src, the transforming protein of Rous sarcoma virus, and its normal cellular homolog pp60c-src with respect to inhibition by P1,P4-di(adenosine-5')tetraphosphate by using the immune complex protein kinase assay. The concentration of P1,P4-di(adenosine-5')tetraphosphate required for 50% inhibition of pp60v-src kinase (1 microM) was found to be significantly lower than that required for inhibition of pp60c-src kinase (46 microM). Viral and cellular pp60src kinases differed to a lesser extent with respect to inhibition by adenosine-5'-tetraphosphate, di(guanosine-5')tetraphosphate, and ADP. No significant differences were found in the ATP Km values of pp60v-src (0.108 +/- 0.048 microM) and pp60c-src kinases (0.056 +/- 0.012 microM). These results demonstrate that the protein kinase activities of viral and cellular pp60src are functionally distinguishable, particularly on the basis of enhanced sensitivity of the viral enzyme to inhibition by P1,P4-di(adenosine-5')tetraphosphate. These functional differences are likely to be due to differences in the conformation of the active site and may be important for determining transformation potential.

Serum from Rous sarcoma virus tumor-bearing rabbits immunoprecipitated from extracts of the freshwater sponge Spongilla lacustris a tyrosine-specific protein kinase with characteristics similar to the chicken pp60c-src kinase activity. An immune competition assay confirmed the relationship between the protein from sponges and viral pp60v-src.

Recent studies have shown that the protooncogene c-src is required for normal osteoclastic bone resorption. In this study we examined the expression and regulation of pp60c-src in murine bone marrow cultures in which bone-resorbing multinucleated osteoclasts form over 6 days of culture. We found that both pp60c-src protein expression and pp60c-src tyrosine kinase activity correlated closely with the numbers of active osteoclasts in the cultures. PTH increased the numbers of osteoclasts, pp60c-src tyrosine kinase activity, and src protein, whereas calcitonin decreased the numbers of osteoclasts, src protein, and tyrosine kinase activity. However, when calcitonin was incubated for short periods (< 2 h) with the active osteoclasts present after 6 days of culture, there was a decrease in pp60c-src tyrosine kinase activity and the phosphorylation state, but not in total pp60c-src protein. These data suggest that pp60c-src is expressed in cultures of osteoclasts in parallel with the number of active bone-resorbing osteoclasts. They indicate that pp60c-src activity in osteoclast cultures depends on the activity and numbers of osteoclasts and is hormone regulated. As calcitonin receptors are detectable only in osteoclasts in these cultures, the inhibitory effects of calcitonin suggest that the critical site for pp60c-src expression in these cultures is in osteoclasts.

Tyrosine phosphorylation of several cellular proteins is one of the earliest signaling events induced by cross-linking of the high-affinity receptor for immunoglobulin E (Fc epsilon RI) on mast cells or basophils. Tyrosine kinases activated during this process include the Src family kinases, Lyn, c-Yes, and c-Src, and members of another subfamily, Syk and PTK72 (identical or highly related to Syk). Recently, some of us described two novel tyrosine kinases, Emb and Emt, whose expression was limited to subsets of hematopoietic cells, including mast cells. Emb turned out to be identical to Btk, a gene product defective in human X-linked agammaglobulinemia and in X-linked immunodeficient (xid) mice. Here we report that Fc epsilon RI cross-linking induced rapid phosphorylation on tyrosine, serine, and threonine residues and activation of Btk in mouse bone marrow-derived mast cells. A small fraction of Btk translocated from the cytosol to the membrane compartment following receptor cross-linking. Tyrosine phosphorylation of Btk was not induced by either a Ca2+ ionophore (A23187), phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, or a combination of the two reagents. Co-immunoprecipitation between Btk and receptor subunit beta or gamma was not detected. The data collectively suggest that Btk is not associated with Fc epsilon but that its activation takes place prior to protein kinase C activation and plays a novel role in the Fc epsilon RI signaling pathway.
