Parathyroid hormone (PTH) interacts in target tissues with a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) localized in the plasma membrane. Although activation of GPCR can elicit rapid stimulation of cellular protein tyrosine phosphorylation, the mechanism by which G proteins activate protein-tyrosine kinases is not completely understood. In the present work, we demonstrate that PTH rapidly increases the activity of non-receptor tyrosine kinase c-Src in rat intestinal cells (enterocytes). The response is biphasic, the early phase is fast and transient, peaking at 30 s (+120%), while the second phase progressively increases up to 5 min (+220%). The hormone activates c-Src in intestinal cells through fast changes in tyrosine phosphorylation of the enzyme. The first event in the activation of c-Src is the dephosphorylation of Tyr527 (which happens after a few seconds of PTH treatment), followed by a second event of activation with phosphorylation at Tyr416 (+twofold, 5 min). Removal of external Ca2+ (EGTA, 0.5 mM) and chelation of intracellular Ca2+ with 1,2-bis(2-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N′,N′-tetracetic acid acetoxymethyl ester (BAPTA) (5 μM) suppressed Tyr527 dephosphorylation and Tyr416 phosphorylation, indicating that Ca2+ is an upstream activator of c-Src in enterocytes stimulated with PTH. The G protein subunits, Gαs and Gβ, are associated with c-Src in basal conditions and this association increases two- to threefold in cells treated with PTH. Blocking of Gβ subunits by preincubation of cells with a Gβ antibody abolished hormone-dependent c-Src Tyr416 phosphorylation and ERK1/ERK2 activation. The results of this work indicate that PTH activates c-Src in intestinal cells through conformational changes via G proteins and calcium-dependent modulation of tyrosine phosphorylation of the enzyme, and that PTH receptor activation leads via Gβγ–c-Src to the phosphorylation of the MAP kinases, ERK1 and ERK2.

The possible involvement of G-proteins in T cell antigen-receptor complex (TCR)-mediated inositol phosphate production was investigated in HPB-ALL T-cells, which were found to express the phospholipase C gamma 1 and beta 3 isoforms. Cross-linking the CD3 antigen on streptolysin-O-permeabilized cells stimulated a dose-dependent increase in inositol phosphate production, as did addition of guanosine 5′-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (GTP[S]) or vanadate, a phosphotyrosine phosphatase inhibitor. It was possible, therefore, that the CD3-antigen-mediated production of inositol phosphates was either via a G-protein-dependent mechanism or by stimulation of protein tyrosine phosphorylation. The CD3-induced inositol phosphate production was potentiated by addition of vanadate, but not by addition of GTP[S]. Guanosine 5′-[beta-thio]diphosphate (GDP[S]) inhibited the rise in inositol phosphates induced by GTP[S], vanadate or cross-linking the CD3 antigen. The increase in protein tyrosine phosphorylation stimulated by vanadate or the OKT3 monoclonal antibody was not observed in the presence of GDP[S], showing that in permeabilized HPB-ALL cells, GDP[S] inhibits the actions of tyrosine kinases as well as G-protein function. Addition of either ADP[S] or phenylarsine oxide inhibited CD3- and vanadate-mediated increases in both tyrosine phosphorylation and inositol phosphate production, but did not inhibit GTP[S]-stimulated inositol phosphate production. On the other hand, pretreatment of cells with phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate inhibited subsequent GTP[S]-stimulated inositol phosphate production but did not inhibit significantly inositol phosphate production stimulated by either OKT3 F(ab')2 fragments or vanadate. Our results are consistent with the CD3 antigen stimulating inositol phosphate production by increasing the level of protein tyrosine phosphorylation, but not by activating a G-protein.

SummaryIt has been demonstrated that activation of platelets by platelet-activating factor (PAF) results in a dramatic increase in tyrosine phosphorylation of several cellular proteins. We report here that p72 syk is a potential candidate for the protein-tyrosine phosphorylation following PAF stimulation in porcine platelets. Immunoprecipitation kinase assay revealed that PAF stimulation resulted in a rapid activation of p72 syk which peaked at 10 s. The level of activation was found to be dose dependent and could be completely inhibited by the PAF receptor antagonist, CV3988. Phosphorylation at the tyrosine residues of p72 syk coincided with activation of yllsyk. Pretreatment of platelets with aspirin and apyrase did not affect PAF induced activation of p72 syk .Furthermore, genistein, a potent protein-tyrosine-kinase inhibitor, diminished PAF-induced p72 syk activation and Ca2+ mobilization as well as platelet aggregation. These results suggest that p72 syk may play a critical role in PAF-induced aggregation, possibly through regulation of Ca2+ mobilization.

Tyrosine phosphorylation constitutes up to 5% of the total phophoproteome. However, only limited studies are available on protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs) that catalyze protein tyrosine phosphorylation in plants. In this study, domain analysis of the 27 annotated PTK genes in rice genome led to the identification of 18 PTKs with tyrosine kinase domain. The kinase domain of rice PTKs shared high homology with that of dual specificity kinase BRASSINOSTEROID-INSENSITIVE 1 (BRI1) of Arabidopsis. In phylogenetic analysis, rice PTKs clustered with receptor-like cytoplasmic kinases-VII (RLCKs-VII) of Arabidopsis. mRNAseq analysis using Genevestigator revealed that rice PTKs except PTK9 and PTK16 express at moderate to high level in most tissues. PTK16 expression was highly abundant in panicle at flowering stage. mRNAseq data analysis led to the identification of drought, heat, salt, and submergence stress regulated PTK genes in rice. PTK14 was upregulated under all stresses. qRT-PCR analysis also showed that all PTKs except PTK10 were significantly upregulated in root under osmotic stress. Tissue specificity and abiotic stress mediated differential regulation of PTKs suggest their potential role in development and stress response of rice. The candidate dual specificity PTKs identified in this study paves way for molecular analysis of tyrosine phosphorylation in rice.

The protein product of the CT10 virus, p47gag-crk (v-Crk), which contains Src homology region 2 (SH2) and 3 (SH3) domains but lacks a kinase domain, is believed to cause an increase in cellular protein tyrosine phosphorylation. A candidate tyrosine kinase, Csk (C-terminal Src kinase), has been implicated in c-Src Tyr-527 phosphorylation, which negatively regulates the protein tyrosine kinase of pp60c-src (c-Src). To investigate how c-Src kinase activity is regulated in vivo, we first looked at whether v-Crk can activate c-Src kinase. We found that cooverexpression of v-Crk and c-Src caused elevation of c-Src kinase activity, resulting in an increase of tyrosine phosphorylation of cellular proteins and morphological transformation of rat 3Y1 fibroblasts. v-Crk and c-Src complexes were not detected, although v-Crk bound to a variety of tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins in cells overexpressing v-Crk and c-Src. Overexpression of Csk in these transformed cells caused reversion to normal phenotypes and also reduced the level of c-Src kinase activity. However, Csk did not cause reversion of cells transformed by v-Src or c-Src527F, in which Tyr-527 was changed to Phe. These results strongly suggest that Csk acts on Tyr-527 of c-Src and suppresses c-Src kinase activity in vivo. Because Csk can suppress transformation by cooverexpression of v-Crk and c-Src, we suggest that v-Crk causes activation of c-Src in vivo by altering the phosphorylation state of Tyr-527.

Integrins play a central role in cellular adhesion and anchorage of the cytoskeleton and participate in the generation of intracellular signals, including tyrosine phosphorylation. We have recently isolated a cDNA encoding a unique, focal adhesion-associated protein tyrosine kinase (FAK) that is a component of an integrin-mediated signal transduction pathway. Here we report the isolation of cDNAs encoding the C-terminal, noncatalytic domain of the FAK kinase, termed FRNK (FAK-related nonkinase). Both the FAK- and FRNK-encoded polypeptides, pp125FAK and p41/p43FRNK, are expressed in normal chicken embryo cells. pp125FAK and p41/p43FRNK were localized to focal adhesions, suggesting that pp125FAK is directed to the focal adhesions by sequences within its C-terminal domain. We also show that the fibronectin-dependent increase in tyrosine phosphorylation of pp125FAK is accompanied by a concomitant posttranslational modification of p41FRNK.

Abstract Heterotrimeric G-proteins transmit signals of G-protein coupled receptors and regulate many basic cellular functions. However, their role in normal and malignant hematopoietic stem cells remains obscure. Activating mutations in the heterotrimeric G-protein Gaq were found in various cancers and its expression is enhanced in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and T-ALL. Our previous data suggested the involvement of heterotrimeric G-proteins in Flt3-ITD-mediated leukemic transformation. FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 with internal tandem duplication (FLT3-ITD) is a frequent oncoprotein in acute myeloid leukemia causing constitutive active STAT5 signaling. Here, we investigated a novel role of Gaq in Flt3-ITD-induced leukemic transformation. We could show that Gaq is indispensable for aberrant FLT3-ITD activation and oncogenic function as Gaq activity is necessary to maintain the autophosphorylation of FLT3-ITD. Gaq abrogation resulted in diminished cell proliferation and colony formation as well as delayed leukemogenesis in vivo of Flt3-ITD leukemic cells. Importantly, the growth inhibition could be rescued by addition of IL3 and did not occur in the presence of FLT3 ligand-activated FLT3 wildtype receptor, demonstrating the specificity of Gaq requirement for FLT3-ITD oncogenic signaling. Interestingly, co-immunoprecipitations revealed a direct physical interaction between FLT3-ITD and Gaq which did not require phosphorylation of the receptor tyrosine kinase. Hence, FLT3-ITD hyperphosphorylation seems to be rather a consequence of the interaction than a prerequisite. Flt3-ITD-induced transformation of murine hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs) strictly depended on the presence of Gaq, and the ablation of Gaq/11 in transplanted Flt3-ITD-transduced HSPCs from conditional Gaq/11 double knock-out mice delayed leukemic burden. These findings of an unexpected, yet critical, role of Gaq place the molecule as an important target for antileukemic strategies. Disclosures No relevant conflicts of interest to declare.

Abstract Many biochemical pathways are driven by G protein-coupled receptors, cell surface proteins that convert the binding of extracellular chemical, sensory, and mechanical stimuli into cellular signals. Their interaction with various ligands triggers receptor activation that typically couples to and activates heterotrimeric G proteins, which in turn control the propagation of secondary messenger molecules (e.g. cAMP) involved in critically important physiological processes (e.g. heart beat). Successful transfer of information from ligand binding events to intracellular signaling cascades involves a dynamic interplay between ligands, receptors, and G proteins. The development of Förster resonance energy transfer and bioluminescence resonance energy transfer-based methods has now permitted the kinetic analysis of initial steps involved in G protein-coupled receptor-mediated signaling in live cells and in systems as diverse as neurotransmitter and hormone signaling. The direct measurement of ligand efficacy at the level of the receptor by Förster resonance energy transfer is also now possible and allows intrinsic efficacies of clinical drugs to be linked with the effect of receptor polymorphisms.

The glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored F3 molecule, a member of the Ig superfamily made up of Ig and FNIII-like domains, is involved in cell-cell adhesion, neuronal pathfinding and fasciculation. Little is known about the mechanism(s) that governs the F3-mediated cell-cell recognition. In particular, it is not known whether F3 transduces signals across the membrane. Here we show that in F3-transfected CHO cells (1A cells) an increase in tyrosine phosphorylation occurs during F3-mediated aggregation. Moreover, under aggregation conditions F3 immunoprecipitated from 32P-metabolically labeled 1A cells associated with three major phosphorylated proteins. Interestingly, genistein inhibited the F3-mediated aggregation. Increased tyrosine phosphorylation was also observed using antibody-mediated F3-cross-linking. Furthermore, F3 expressed both in 1A cells and in post-natal mouse cerebellum forms non-covalent soluble complexes with protein tyrosine kinase(s). In cerebellum the F3-associated kinase was identified as fyn. By contrast, a truncated F3 protein, expressed in CHO cells, from which all the FN type III repeats have been deleted, does not associate with a kinase. Cross-linking of the F3-truncated form does not induce modulation of tyrosine phosphorylation. Taken together these data demonstrate that F3 is a molecule that transduces signals through both association with protein tyrosine kinase and modulation of protein tyrosine phosphorylation. The presence of FN type III domains is essential for the activation of the intracellular signaling pathway.
