1. A partially purified preparation of human placental insulin receptors was incubated with [gamma-32P]ATP in the presence or absence of insulin. The 32P-labelled insulin-receptor beta-subunits were then isolated, cleaved with trypsin followed by protease V8 and the [32P]phosphopeptides generated were analysed by thin layer electrophoresis and chromatography. This approach revealed that insulin stimulates autophosphorylation of the insulin-receptor beta-subunit in vitro on at least seven tyrosine residues distributed among three distinct domains. 2. One domain (domain 2), containing tyrosine residues 1146, 1150 and 1151 was the most rapidly phosphorylated and could be recovered as mono-, di- and triphosphorylated peptides cleaved by trypsin at Arg-1143 and either Lys-1153 or Lys-1156. Multiple phosphorylation of this domain appears to partially inhibit the cleavage at Lys-1153 by trypsin. 3. In a second domain (domain 3) containing two phosphorylated tyrosine residues at positions 1316 and 1322 the tyrosines were phosphorylated more slowly than those in domain 2. This domain is close to the C-terminus of the beta-subunit polypeptide chain. 4. At least two further tyrosine residues appeared to be phosphorylated after those in domains 2 and 3. These residues probably residue within a domain lying in close proximity to the inner face of the plasma membrane containing tyrosines 953, 960 and 972, but conclusive evidence is still required. 5. The two-dimensional thin-layer analysis employed in this study to investigate insulin-receptor phosphorylation has several advantages over previous methods based on reverse-phase chromatography. It allows greater resolution of 32P-labelled tryptic peptides and, when coupled to radioautography, is considerably more sensitive. The approach can be readily adapted to study phosphorylation of the insulin receptor within intact cells.

Insulin Receptor Kinase Activity

H-35 rat hepatoma cells were labelled with [32P]orthophosphate and their insulin receptors isolated on wheat germ agglutinin (WGA)-agarose and anti-(insulin receptor) serum. The incubation of these cells with 10 mM-H2O2 for 10 min increased the phosphorylation of both the serine and tyrosine residues of the beta subunit of the insulin receptor. Next, insulin receptors were purified on WGA-agarose from control and H2O2-treated H-35 cells and the purified fractions incubated with [gamma-32P]ATP and Mn2+. Phosphorylation of the beta subunit of insulin receptors obtained from H2O2-treated cells was 150% of that of control cells. The kinase activity of the WGA-purified receptor preparation obtained from H2O2-treated cells, as measured by phosphorylation of src-related synthetic peptide, was increased about 4-fold over control cells. These data suggest that in intact cell systems, H2O2 may increase the insulin receptor kinase activity by inducing phosphorylation of the beta subunit of insulin receptor.

Previous studies, by ourselves and others, have shown that tyrosine residues 1158, 1162 and 1163 are very rapidly autophosphorylated on the human insulin receptor after insulin binding and that this is followed by the autophosphorylation of tyrosine residues 1328 and 1334. The autophosphorylation of these tyrosine residues, and their role in transmembrane signalling, were examined by using Chinese-hamster ovary cells transfected with either normal intact insulin receptors or receptors in which tyrosine residues 1162 or 1162/1163 were substituted with phenylalanine. These studies show the following. (1) Tyrosine-1158 could still be autophosphorylated when tyrosine-1162 and -1163 were substituted with phenylalanine. (2) Insulin-stimulated insulin-receptor tyrosine phosphorylation in intact cells was complete within 30 s and was accompanied, after a lag of 2-5 min, by a rise in serine and threonine phosphorylation the beta-subunit. (3) Replacement of tyrosine-1162 with phenylalanine blocked insulin-stimulated threonine phosphorylation of the insulin receptor in intact cells. (4) Insulin-stimulated serine phosphorylation of the beta-subunit was found in both intact cells and partially purified receptor preparations incubated with [gamma-32P]ATP and was still apparent after the replacement of tyrosine-1162 with phenylalanine. (5) Our data strongly suggest that insulin-stimulated insulin-receptor serine and threonine phosphorylations are initiated through two distinct pathways, with only the latter showing a strict dependence on autophosphorylation of tyrosine-1162.

Earlier studies indicate the presence of an insulin-like immunoreactivity (ILI) in rat submandibular salivary glands (SSG). Previous observations also showed that streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetes was accompanied by an increase in SSG ILI concentrations. In the present work we studied the effect of SSG ILI from normal and STZ diabetic rats (ILI-N and ILI-D, respectively) on insulin receptor binding and function in LMH cell line. ILI-N and ILI-D inhibited 125I-insulin binding to intact cells and wheat germ agglutinin (WGA)-purified insulin receptors with a high affinity. Furthermore, ILI-N and ILI-D activated, although weakly, the beta-subunit autophosphorylation of solubilized and WGA-purified insulin receptors. An ATP hydrolytic activity was present in ILI-N and, to a greater extent, in ILI-D extracts, which can at least in part explain their low potency for activating autophosphorylation and kinase activity of insulin receptors in vitro. However, after ILI treatment of intact cells and immunoprecipitation of insulin receptors, ILI induced a dose-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation of the insulin receptor beta-subunit. Finally, ILI-N and ILI-D stimulated amino acid uptake and lipogenesis in LMH cells. These findings suggest that SSG ILI is biologically active and can participate in metabolic regulations.

In intact rat hepatocytes insulin stimulates the phosphorylation of the beta-subunit of its receptor exclusively on serine residues, which are also phosphorylated in the absence of insulin. In contrast, in partially purified insulin receptors derived from these same cells and in highly purified insulin receptors obtained by immunoprecipitation with anti-receptor antibodies, the receptor beta-subunit is phosphorylated solely on tyrosine residues. For both cell-free systems, insulin's stimulatory action on receptor phosphorylation leads to an increase in phosphotyrosine. When partially purified receptors were used to phosphorylate two exogenous substrates, casein and histone, insulin was found to stimulate the phosphorylation of both tyrosine and serine. However, the basal and insulin-stimulated kinase activity of immunoprecipitated receptors was only tyrosine-specific. From these observations we propose that the insulin-receptor complex consists of two different insulin-stimulatable kinase activities: (1) a tyrosine-specific kinase, which is a constituent of the insulin-receptor structure and whose activation is likely to be the first post-binding event in insulin action; and (2) a serine-specific kinase, which is closely associated with the receptor in the cell membrane.

Insulin stimulates the autophosphorylation of the partially purified insulin receptor initially on tyrosine residues 1146, 1150 and 1151. This is followed by increased autophosphorylation of tyrosine residues 1316, 1322 and two further residues, possibly tyrosine residues 953 and 960 or 972 [Tavaré & Denton (1988) Biochem. J. 252, 607-615]. In the present paper we have used two cell lines transfected with insulin-receptor cDNA (CHO.T and NIH 3T3 HIR3.5 cells) to assess which tyrosine residues are phosphorylated on the insulin receptor within intact cells. We show that: (1) insulin causes a rapid increase in phosphorylation of tyrosine residues 1146, 1150 and 1151 in both cell types; tyrosine residues 1316 and 1322 are also phosphorylated, but apparently to a lesser extent in NIH 3T3 HIR3.5 cells; (2) the sites that may correspond to tyrosine residues 953 and 960 or 972 appear to be very poorly phosphorylated in both intact cell types; (3) insulin also promotes a substantial and rapid increase in the phosphorylation of serine and threonine residues on insulin receptors on CHO.T cells; this results in the appearance of two phosphopeptides not evident in the maps of the solubilized receptor preparations autophosphorylated in vitro.

P-selectin is a 140 kDa membrane glycoprotein found in secretory granules of platelets and endothelial cells where it is rapidly translocated to the plasma membrane upon cell activation. It then functions as a receptor for various types of leucocytes. Metabolic labelling of resting platelets with 32Pi showed that P-selectin is primarily phosphorylated on serine residues, although some tyrosine phosphorylation was observed as well. However, tyrosine phosphorylation of P-selectin was greatly stimulated by treatment with the permeating phosphatase inhibitor, pervanadate. When P-selectin immunoprecipitates were incubated with [gamma-32P]ATP (in vitro kinase assay), a fraction of P-selectin was phosphorylated on its tyrosine residues by a co-precipitated kinase. P-selectin phosphorylated in vitro co-migrated with 140 kDa surface-labelled 125I-P-selectin during SDS/PAGE under reducing conditions. Under non-reducing conditions, however, phosphorylated P-selectin was disulphide-linked to unknown protein(s) in a 205 kDa complex. In vitro kinase assays of the most abundant platelet tyrosine kinase, pp60c-src, demonstrated the presence of similar 140 and 205 kDa phosphorylated proteins in SDS/PAGE under reducing and non-reducing conditions respectively. Extraction and reprecipitation studies with proteins phosphorylated in vitro indicated that P-selectin and pp60c-src form a 205 kDa 1:1 disulphide-linked complex. In the complex, pp60c-src autophosphorylation is inhibited and P-selectin is phosphorylated on tyrosine residues. As protein disulphides in the cytoplasm of intact cells are extremely rare, our results suggest that P-selectin and pp60c-src, which co-localize in platelet dense granules, may be non-covalently associated and spontaneously form disulphide bridges during lysis. In addition, the observed tyrosine phosphorylation of P-selectin in intact platelets suggests that its function might be regulated by phosphorylation by pp60c-src.
