ABSTRACT The use of small-molecule inhibitors to study molecular components of cellular signal transduction pathways provides a means of analysis complementary to currently used techniques, such as antisense, dominant-negative (interfering) mutants and constitutively activated mutants. We have identified and characterized a small-molecule inhibitor, SU6656, which exhibits selectivity for Src and other members of the Src family. A related inhibitor, SU6657, inhibits many kinases, including Src and the platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) receptor. The use of SU6656 confirmed our previous findings that Src family kinases are required for both Myc induction and DNA synthesis in response to PDGF stimulation of NIH 3T3 fibroblasts. By comparing PDGF-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation events in untreated and SU6656-treated cells, we found that some substrates (for example, c-Cbl, and protein kinase C δ) were Src family substrates whereas others (for example, phospholipase C-γ) were not. One protein, the adaptor Shc, was a substrate for both Src family kinases (on tyrosines 239 and 240) and a distinct tyrosine kinase (on tyrosine 317, which is perhaps phosphorylated by the PDGF receptor itself). Microinjection experiments demonstrated that a Shc molecule carrying mutations of tyrosines 239 and 240, in conjunction with an SH2 domain mutation, interfered with PDGF-stimulated DNA synthesis. Deletion of the phosphotyrosine-binding domain also inhibited synthesis. These inhibitions were overcome by heterologous expression of Myc, supporting the hypothesis that Shc functions in the Src pathway. SU6656 should prove a useful additional tool for further dissecting the role of Src kinases in this and other signal transduction pathways.

Pulmonary artery smooth muscle cell (PASMC) adhesion, spreading, and migration depend on matrix-stimulated reorganization of focal adhesions. Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) activates intracellular signal transduction cascades that also regulate adhesion, spreading, and migration, but the signaling molecules involved in these events are poorly defined. We hypothesized that phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinases and Src tyrosine kinases translate matrix and PDGF-initiated signals into cell motility. In experiments with cultured canine PASMCs, inhibition of PI 3-kinases with wortmannin (0.3 μM) and LY-294002 (50 μM) and of Src kinase with PP1 (30 μM) did not decrease spontaneous (nonstimulated) or PDGF-stimulated (10 ng/ml) adhesion onto collagen. PI 3-kinase and Src kinase activities, however, were necessary for cell spreading: PP1 inhibited cell spreading and Src Tyr-418 phosphorylation in a concentration-dependent manner. Inhibition of PI 3-kinase and Src partially reduced cell migration, while at 10 and 30 μM, PP1 eliminated migration, likely due to inhibition of PDGF receptors. In conclusion, both PI 3-kinases and Src tyrosine kinases are components of pathways that mediate spreading and migration of cultured PASMCs on collagen.

The Src family of protein tyrosine kinases have been implicated in the response of cells to several ligands. These include platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), epidermal growth factor (EGF), and colony stimulating factor type 1 (CSF-1, in macrophages and in fibroblasts engineered to express the receptor). We recently described a microinjection approach which we used to demonstrate that Src family kinases are required for PDGF-induced S phase entry of fibroblasts. We now use this approach to ask whether other ligands also require Src kinases to stimulate cells to replicate DNA. An antibody specific for the carboxy terminus of Src, Fyn, and Yes (anti-cst.1) inhibited Src kinase activity in vitro and caused morphological reversion of Src transformed cells in vivo. Microinjection of this antibody was used to demonstrate that Src kinases were required for both CSF-1 and EGF to drive cells into the S phase. Expression of a kinase-inactive form of Src family kinases also prevented EGF- and CSF-1-stimulated DNA synthesis. However, even though the Src family kinases were necessary for both PDGF- and EGF-induced DNA synthesis in Swiss 3T3 cells, the responses to two other potent growth factors for these cells, lysophosphatidic acid and bombesin, were unaffected by the neutralizing antibodies. Therefore, some but not all growth factors required functional Src family kinases to transmit mitogenic responses.

Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk) is tyrosine phosphorylated and enzymatically activated following ligation of the B-cell antigen receptor. These events are temporally regulated, and Btk activation follows that of various members of the Src family of protein tyrosine kinases, thus raising the possibility that Src kinases participate in the Btk activation process. We have evaluated the mechanism underlying Btk enzyme activation and have explored the potential regulatory relationship between Btk and Src protein kinases. We demonstrate in COS transient-expression assays that Btk can be activated through intramolecular autophosphorylation at tyrosine 551 and that Btk autophosphorylation is required for Btk catalytic functions. Coexpression of Btk with members of the Src family of protein tyrosine kinases, but not Syk, led to Btk tyrosine phosphorylation and activation. Using a series of point mutations in Blk (a representative Src protein kinase) and Btk, we show that Src kinases activate Btk through an indirect mechanism that requires membrane association of the Src enzymes as well as functional Btk SH3 and SH2 domains. Our results are compatible with the idea that Src protein tyrosine kinases contribute to Btk activation by indirectly stimulating Btk intramolecular autophosphorylation.

Phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase plays an important role in the signalling of cell growth. We previously purified two types of PI 3-kinase from bovine thymus, a monomer from (PI 3-kinase I) and a heterodimer form (PI 3-kinase II) [Shibasaki, Homma and Takenawa (1991) J. Biol. Chem. 266, 8108-8114]. Here we examine the properties of these purified PI 3-kinases. Both PI 3-kinases were inhibited strongly by quercetin and isoquercetin. The inhibition of PI 3-kinase I and PI 3-kinase II by quercetin appears to be non-competitive, with apparent Ki values of 4 microM and 2.5 microM respectively. PI 3-kinase II, but not PI 3-kinase I, co-immunoprecipitates with pp60v-src and polyoma middle T (mT)/pp60c-src, even under conditions where the PI 3-kinases are not phosphorylated, suggesting that non-phosphorylated PI 3-kinase recognizes autophosphorylated pp60v-src. PI 3-kinase II is phosphorylated by pp60v-src and binds to it. Anti-p85 (85 kDa subunit of PI 3-kinase II) antibody precipitates not only PI 3-kinase II but also co-immunoprecipitates pp60v-src in src-transformed cells, suggesting that PI 3-kinase II binds to pp60v-src in vivo. These data suggest that the two PI 3-kinases may be regulated independently.

Abstract Abstract 5041 Stat5A and Stat5B transcription factors (TF) play an important role in the control of hematopoietic cell proliferation and survival and are constitutively activated in number of hematological malignancies and solid tumours. Studies conducted with constitutively active (ca) Stat5 mutants (Stat51*6 and cS5F) have shown that deregulated Stat5 activity promotes leukemogenesis. In order to evaluate the role of Src kinases in the transforming properties of Stat5 TF, caStat5 expressing Ba/F3 cells and primary murine bone marrow cells were treated with the PP1 Src kinase inhibitor and with its inactive analogue PP3 as a control. We found that PP1 but not PP3 strongly inhibited Stat5A1*6- and Stat5B1*6- expressing Ba/F3 cell growth and survival while no changes were observed in IL-3 stimulated-parental Ba/F3 cells when treated with PP1. Similarly, we were able to demonstrate specific requirement of Src kinases in cS5F-induced primary bone marrow cell growth. We then examined the contribution of Src kinases to the phosphorylation of various signaling molecules involved in cell growth and survival like Stat5, PI3-K/Akt, Ras/Mapk and NF-kB. The treatment of caStat5 (Stat51*6 or cS5F)-expressing Ba/F3 cells with PP1 resulted in a strong decrease of Erk1/2 phosphorylation, but not of Stat5, Akt and IKK species. In addition, caStat5-expressing Ba/F3 cells were found to express a constitutive molecular complex comprising Stat5, Shc, Grb2, Sos, Erk, Gab2, p85, Lyn and Hck. Finally we found that the Lyn Src kinase was overexpressed in the caStat5-expressing cells. Our data suggest a direct implication of Src kinases in the proliferation of caStat5- Ba/F3 transformed cells through the Shc/Erk1/2 signaling pathway and that Src family members are required for caStat5 (Stat51*6 and cS5F)-induced hematopoietic cell growth.

Physiological stimuli activate protein kinases for finite periods of time, which is critical for specific biological outcomes. Mimicking this transient biological activity of kinases is challenging due to the limitations of existing methods. Here, we report a strategy enabling transient kinase activation in living cells. Using two protein-engineering approaches, we achieve independent control of kinase activation and inactivation. We show successful regulation of tyrosine kinase c-Src (Src) and Ser/Thr kinase p38α (p38), demonstrating broad applicability of the method. By activating Src for finite periods of time, we reveal how the duration of kinase activation affects secondary morphological changes that follow transient Src activation. This approach highlights distinct roles for sequential Src-Rac1– and Src-PI3K–signaling pathways at different stages during transient Src activation. Finally, we demonstrate that this method enables transient activation of Src and p38 in a specific signaling complex, providing a tool for targeted regulation of individual signaling pathways.

GTPase-activating protein (GAP) enhances the rate of GTP hydrolysis by cellular Ras proteins and is implicated in mitogenic signal transduction. GAP is phosphorylated on tyrosine in cells transformed by Rous sarcoma virus and serves as an in vitro substrate of the viral Src (v-Src) kinase. Our previous studies showed that GAP complexes stably with normal cellular Src (c-Src), although its association with v-Src is less stable. To further investigate the molecular basis for interactions between GAP and the Src kinases, we examined GAP association with and phosphorylation by a series of c-Src and v-Src mutants. Analysis of GAP association with c-Src/v-Src chimeric proteins demonstrates that GAP associates stably with Src proteins possessing low kinase activity and poorly with activated Src kinases, especially those that lack the carboxy-terminal segment of c-Src containing the regulatory amino acid Tyr-527. Phosphorylated Tyr-527 is a major determinant of c-Src association with GAP, as demonstrated by c-Src point mutants in which Tyr-527 is changed to Phe. While the isolated amino-terminal half of the c-Src protein is insufficient for stable GAP association, analysis of point substitutions of highly conserved amino acid residues in the c-Src SH2 region indicate that this region also influences Src-GAP complex formation. Therefore, our results suggest that both Tyr-527 phosphorylation and the SH2 region contribute to stable association of c-Src with GAP. Analysis of in vivo phosphorylation of GAP by v-Src mutants containing deletions encompassing the SH2, SH3, and unique regions suggests that the kinase domain of v-Src contains sufficient substrate specificity for GAP phosphorylation. Even though tyrosine phosphorylation of GAP correlates to certain extent with the transforming ability of various c-Src and v-Src mutants, our data suggest that other GAP-associated proteins may also have roles in Src-mediated oncogenic transformation. These findings provide additional evidence for the specificity of Src interactions with GAP and support the hypothesis that these interactions contribute to the biological functions of the Scr kinases.

SummaryPlatelet shape change was found to be associated with an increase in protein tyrosine phosphorylation upon stimulation of thrombin-, ADPand thromboxane A2-G-protein coupled receptors in human platelets and thromboxane A2 receptors in mouse platelets. By using PP1 and PD173956, two structurally unrelated specific inhibitors of Src-family tyrosine kinases, and mouse platelets deficient in the Src-kinase Fyn or Lyn, we show that Src-family kinases cause the increase in protein tyrosine phosphorylation. We further detected that the non-Src tyrosine kinase Syk was activated during shape change in a manner dependent on Src-family kinaseactivation. The pharmacological experiments and the studies on Fyn-, Lyn- and Syk-deficient mouse platelets showed that neither Src-family kinases nor Syk are functionally involved in shape change. Also human platelets deficient of the tyrosine kinase Btk showed a normal shape change. Binding of PAC-1 that recognizes activated integrin αIIb β3 complexes on the platelet surface was enhanced during shape change and blocked by inhibition of Src-kinases. We conclude that the activation of Src-kinases and the subsequent Syk stimulation upon activation of G-protein coupled receptors are not involved in the cytoskeletal changes underlying shape change of human and mouse platelets, but that the stimulation of this evolutionary conserved pathway leads to integrin αIIb β3 exposure during shape change.

Recent studies have shown that ligand-activated growth factor receptors as well as transforming versions of nonreceptor protein-tyrosine kinases physically associate with phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI-3 kinase). Reasoning that PI-3 kinase might also play a role in the normal functions of nonreceptor kinases, we sought to determine whether association with PI-3 kinase might serve as a measure of nonreceptor protein-tyrosine kinase activation under physiological conditions. We found that p60c-src as well as p59fyn, the product of another member of the src family of proto-oncogenes, physically associated with a PI kinase activity within 5 s after exposure to thrombin. Furthermore, PI kinase reaction products generated in p60v-src, p60c-src or p59fyn containing immunoprecipitates were indistinguishable, demonstrating the identity of the associated enzyme as PI-3 kinase. These findings demonstrate a thrombin-dependent interaction between p60c-src or p59fyn and PI-3 kinase and suggest a role for nonreceptor protein-tyrosine kinases in human platelet signal transduction.

ABSTRACT Src family kinases regulate multiple cellular processes including proliferation and oncogenesis. C-terminal Src kinase (Csk) encodes a critical negative regulator of Src family kinases. We demonstrate that the Drosophila melanogaster Csk ortholog, dCsk, functions as a tumor suppressor: dCsk mutants display organ overgrowth and excess cellular proliferation. Genetic analysis indicates that the dCsk−/− overgrowth phenotype results from activation of Src, Jun kinase, and STAT signal transduction pathways. In particular, blockade of STAT function in dCsk mutants severely reduced Src-dependent overgrowth and activated apoptosis of mutant tissue. Our data provide in vivo evidence that Src activity requires JNK and STAT function.

AbstractThe Src family kinases Yes, Fyn, and c-Src play a pivotal role in regulating diverse liver functions such as bile flow, proteolysis, apoptosis, and proliferation and are regulated by anisoosmotic cell volume changes, death receptor ligands, and bile acids. For example, cell swelling leads to an integrin-sensed and focal adhesion kinase-mediated activation of c-Src-triggering choleresis, proteolysis inhibition, regulatory volume decrease via p38MAPK and proliferation via the activation of the epidermal growth factor receptor and extracellular regulated kinases 1 and 2. In contrast, hepatocyte shrinkage generates an almost instantaneous oxidative stress response that triggers the activation of c-Jun N-terminal kinase and the Src family kinases Fyn and Yes. Whereas Fyn activation mediates cholestasis, Yes triggers CD95 activation and apoptosis. This review will discuss the role of Src family kinases in the regulation of liver function with emphasis on their role in osmo-signaling and bile acid signaling.

Full textAbstract:
Hsp90 is a molecular chaperone involved in the activation of numerous client proteins, including many kinases. The most stringent kinase client is the oncogenic kinase v-Src. To elucidate how Hsp90 chaperones kinases, we reconstituted v-Src kinase chaperoning in vitro and show that its activation is ATP-dependent, with the cochaperone Cdc37 increasing the efficiency. Consistent with in vivo results, we find that Hsp90 does not influence the almost identical c-Src kinase. To explain these findings, we designed Src kinase chimeras that gradually transform c-Src into v-Src and show that their Hsp90 dependence correlates with compactness and folding cooperativity. Molecular dynamics simulations and hydrogen/deuterium exchange of Hsp90-dependent Src kinase variants further reveal increased transitions between inactive and active states and exposure of specific kinase regions. Thus, Hsp90 shifts an ensemble of conformations of v-Src toward high activity states that would otherwise be metastable and poorly populated.

Both neurotransmitter release and insulin secretion occur via regulated exocytosis and share a variety of similar regulatory mechanisms. It has been suggested that Src family tyrosine kinases inhibit neurotransmitter release from neuronal cells (H. Ohnishi, S. Yamamori, K. Ono, K. Aoyagi, S. Kondo, and M. Takahashi. Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 98: 10930–10935, 2001). Thus the potential role of Src family kinases in the regulation of insulin secretion was investigated in this study. Two structurally different inhibitors of Src family kinases, SU-6656 and PP2, but not the inactive compound, PP3, enhanced Ca2+-induced insulin secretion in both rat pancreatic islets and INS-1 cells in a concentration-dependent and time-dependent manner. Furthermore, Src family kinase-mediated insulin secretion appears to be dependent on elevated intracellular Ca2+ and independent of glucose metabolism, the ATP-dependent K+ channel, adenylyl cyclase, classical PKC isoforms, extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2, and insulin synthesis. The sites of action for Src family kinases seem to be distal to the elevation of intracellular Ca2+ level. These results indicate that one or more Src family tyrosine kinases exert a tonic inhibitory role on Ca2+-dependent insulin secretion.

Loss of function of Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk) results in X-linked immunodeficiencies characterized by a broad spectrum of signaling defects, including those dependent on Src family kinase-linked cell surface receptors. A gain-of-function mutant, Btk*, induces the growth of fibroblasts in soft agar and relieves the interleukin-5 dependence of a pre-B-cell line. To genetically define Btk signaling pathways, we used a strategy to either activate or inactivate Src family kinases in fibroblasts that express Btk*. The transformation potential of Btk* was dramatically increased by coexpression with a partly activated c-Src mutant (E-378 --> G). This synergy was further potentiated by deletion of the Btk Src homology 3 domain. Downregulation of Src family kinases by the C-terminal Src kinase (Csk) suppressed Btk* activation and biological potency. In contrast, kinase-inactive Csk (K-222 --> R), which functioned as a dominant negative molecule, synergized with Btk* in biological transformation. Activation of Btk* correlated with increased phosphotyrosine on transphosphorylation and autophosphorylation sites. These findings suggest that the Src and Btk kinase families form specific signaling units in tissues in which both are expressed.

Full textAbstract:
We compared the role of tyrosine kinases in α1A-adrenergic receptor (AR) and growth factor receptor stimulation of mitogen-activated protein kinase pathways in PC12 cells. Norepinephrine (NE) (noradrenaline), epidermal growth factor (EGF) and nerve growth factor (NGF) caused different patterns of tyrosine phosphorylation in PC12 cells stably expressing α1A-ARs. NE increased tyrosine phosphorylation of focal adhesion-related kinase Pyk2 and a 70 kDa protein, probably paxillin, whereas EGF strongly stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of the EGF receptor and cytokine-activated kinase Jak2. The EGF receptor inhibitor AG1478 inhibited activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERKs) by EGF but not by NE. EGF and NGF strongly activated tyrosine phosphorylation of Shc and caused association of Src-homology collagen (Shc) with growth-factor-receptor-bound protein 2 (Grb2); however, neither NE nor UTP caused substantial activation of the Shc/Grb2 pathway. NE, UTP, EGF and NGF all increased tyrosine phosphorylation of Src, and this was inhibited by the Src inhibitor PP2. However, PP2 inhibited ERK activation in response to NE and UTP, but not in response to EGF or NGF. PP2 also completely blocked NE-induced PC12 cell differentiation, but had no measurable effect on NGF-induced differentiation. These studies show that activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase pathways by G-protein-coupled receptors and tyrosine kinase receptors proceed through distinct molecular pathways in PC12 cells, and support an obligatory role for Src activation in mitogenic responses to α1A-ARs in these cells.

Abstract Src family Kinases (SFKs) are important tyrosine kinases in platelets. The family consists of 9 members (viz., Blk, Fgr, Fyn, Hck, Lck, Lyn, Src, Yes and Yrk) and many of the isoforms are expressed in platelets. SFKs are key kinases in glycoprotein (GPVI) mediated platelet activation and we have shown that these kinases play an important role in thromboxane generation. Until now, the role of specific SFKs downstream of G protein signaling in platelets is not well understood. In the present study we characterized functional roles of specific SFK members Fyn, Lyn, Lck and Src Kinases downstream of ADP receptors. Src, Lyn and Fyn are activated downstream of ADP receptors (P2Y) receptors in a time and concentration dependent manner. The presence of fibrinogen receptor antagonist, GR144053, did not affect the activation of Src and Fyn; however, Lyn is not activated in the presence of GR144053, suggesting that Lyn requires outside-in signaling for it’s activation. On the other hand, Lck kinase is not activated downstream of ADP receptors. ADP activates P2Y1 and P2Y12 receptors which in turn couple to Gq and Gi, respectively. In order to further delineate the Src activation pathways we used P2Y1 and P2Y12 receptor antagonists MRS 2179 and AR-C69931MX respectively. Src activation is not inhibited by either P2Y1 or P2Y12 receptor antagonists, suggesting that both receptors independently contribute to the activation of Src kinase. Platelets from mice deficient in Src, Fyn or Lyn were analyzed for thromboxane generation upon stimulation with ADP. Lyn and Fyn KO mice had reduced levels of thromboxane A2 compared to wild type littermates. However, thromboxane generation from platelets lacking Src was unaffected. Hence, we conclude Lyn and Fyn kinases, but not Src, positively regulate thromboxane generation downstream of ADP receptors. We also conclude that Lyn requires outside-in signaling for its activation.

Abstract The SRC, Abelson murine leukemia viral oncogene homolog 1, TEC and C-terminal SRC Kinase families of non-receptor tyrosine kinases (collectively the Src module kinases) mediate an array of cellular signaling processes and are therapeutic targets in many disease states. Crystal structures of Src modules kinases provide valuable insights into the regulatory mechanisms that control activation and generate a framework from which drug discovery can advance. The conformational ensembles visited by these multidomain kinases in solution are also key features of the regulatory machinery controlling catalytic activity. Measurement of dynamic motions within kinases substantially augments information derived from crystal structures. In this review, we focus on a body of work that has transformed our understanding of non-receptor tyrosine kinase regulation from a static view to one that incorporates how fluctuations in conformational ensembles and dynamic motions influence activation status. Regulatory dynamic networks are often shared across and between kinase families while specific dynamic behavior distinguishes unique regulatory mechanisms for select kinases. Moreover, intrinsically dynamic regions of kinases likely play important regulatory roles that have only been partially explored. Since there is clear precedence that kinase inhibitors can exploit specific dynamic features, continued efforts to define conformational ensembles and dynamic allostery will be key to combating drug resistance and devising alternate treatments for kinase-associated diseases.

The nonreceptor protein tyrosine kinase Src plays a crucial role in the signal transduction pathways involved in cell division, motility, adhesion, and survival in both normal and cancer cells. Although the Src family kinases (SFKs) are activated in various types of cancers, the exact mechanisms through which they contribute to the progression of individual tumors remain to be defined. The activation of Src in human cancers may occur through a variety of mechanisms that include domain interaction and structural remodeling in response to various activators or upstream kinases and phosphatastes. Because of Src's prominent roles in invasion and tumor progression, epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition, angiogenesis, and the development of metastasis, Src is a promising target for cancer therapy. Several small molecule inhibitors of Src are currently being investigated in clinical trials. In this article, we will summarize the mechanisms regulating Src kinase activity in normal and cancer cells and discuss the status of Src inhibitor development against various types of cancers.

Abstract The receptor tyrosine kinase c-Kit plays a critical role in hematopoiesis and gain-of-function mutations of the receptor are frequently seen in several malignancies, including acute myeloid leukemia (AML), mastocytoma and sinonasal NK/T cell lymphomas. The most common mutation of c-Kit in these disorders is a substitution of the aspartic acid residue in position 816 to a valine (D816V), leading to constitutive activation of the receptor. In this study we aimed to investigate the role of Src family kinases in c-Kit/D816V signaling. Src family kinases are necessary for the phosphorylation of wild-type c-Kit as well as for activation of downstream signaling pathways including receptor ubiquitination and the Ras/MEK/Erk pathway. Tyrosine 568 of c-Kit, that is important for Src activation by wild-type c-Kit, was mutated to phenylalanine in both wild-type c-Kit and c-Kit/D816V and stably transfected into the hematopoietic cell line Ba/F3. Our data demonstrate that, unlike wild-type c-Kit, the phosphorylation of c-Kit/D816V is not dependent on Src family kinases. In addition we found that neither receptor ubiquitination nor Erk activation by c-Kit/D816V required activation of Src family kinases. In vitro kinase assay using synthetic peptides revealed that c-Kit/D816V had an altered substrate specificity resembling Src and Abl tyrosine kinases. The serine/threonine kinases Akt and Erk play important roles in cell survival and proliferation mediated by receptor tyrosine kinases. We could show constitutive activation of both PI3-kinase pathway and Erk in Ba/F3 cells expressing c-Kit/D816V, although ligand stimulation induced even stronger activation. We further present evidence that, in contrast to wild-type c-Kit, Src family kinases are dispensible for c-Kit/D816V cell survival. Taken together, we demonstrate that the signal transduction pathways mediated by c-Kit/D816V are markedly different from those activated by wild-type c-Kit and that altered substrate substrate specificity of c-Kit circumvents a need for Src family kinases in signaling of growth and survival, thereby contributing to the transforming potential of c-Kit/D816V.

src family tyrosine kinases contain two noncatalytic domains termed src homology 3 (SH3) and SH2 domains. Although several other signal transduction molecules also contain tandemly occurring SH3 and SH2 domains, the function of these closely spaced domains is not well understood. To identify the role of the SH3 domains of src family tyrosine kinases, we sought to identify proteins that interacted with this domain. By using the yeast two-hybrid system, we identified p62, a tyrosine-phosphorylated protein that associates with p21ras GTPase-activating protein, as a src family kinase SH3-domain-binding protein. Reconstitution of complexes containing p62 and the src family kinase p59fyn in HeLa cells demonstrated that complex formation resulted in tyrosine phosphorylation of p62 and was mediated by both the SH3 and SH2 domains of p59fyn. The phosphorylation of p62 by p59fyn required an intact SH3 domain, demonstrating that one function of the src family kinase SH3 domains is to bind and present certain substrates to the kinase. As p62 contains at least five SH3-domain-binding motifs and multiple tyrosine phosphorylation sites, p62 may interact with other signalling molecules via SH3 and SH2 domain interactions. Here we show that the SH3 and/or SH2 domains of the signalling proteins Grb2 and phospholipase C gamma-1 can interact with p62 both in vitro and in vivo. Thus, we propose that one function of the tandemly occurring SH3 and SH2 domains of src family kinases is to bind p62, a multifunctional SH3 and SH2 domain adapter protein, linking src family kinases to downstream effector and regulatory molecules.

The interactions of Src family kinases (SFKs) with the plasma membrane are crucial for their activity. They depend on their fatty-acylated N-termini, containing N-myristate and either a polybasic cluster (in Src) or palmitoylation sites (e.g., Fyn). To investigate the roles of these moieties in SFK membrane association, we used fluorescence recovery after photobleaching beam-size analysis to study the membrane interactions of c-Src-GFP (green fluorescent protein) or Fyn-GFP fatty-acylation mutants. Our studies showed for the first time that the membrane association of Fyn is more stable than that of Src, an effect lost in a Fyn mutant lacking the palmitoylation sites. Unexpectedly, Src-S3C/S6C (containing cysteines at positions 3/6, which are palmitoylated in Fyn) exhibited fast cytoplasmic diffusion insensitive to palmitoylation inhibitors, suggesting defective fatty acylation. Further replacement of the charged Lys-5 by neutral Gln to resemble Fyn (Src-S3C/S6C/K5Q) restored Fyn-like membrane interactions, indicating that Lys-5 in the context of Src-S3C/S6C interferes with its myristoylation/palmitoylation. This was validated by direct myristoylation and palmitoylation studies, which indicated that the residue at position 5 regulates the membrane interactions of Src versus Fyn. Moreover, the palmitoylation levels correlated with targeting to detergent-resistant membranes (rafts) and to caveolin-1. Palmitoylation-dependent preferential containment of Fyn in rafts may contribute to its lower transformation potential.

Tyrosine phosphorylation of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) creates a high-affinity binding site for the src homology 2 domain of the Src family of tyrosine kinases. Assembly of a complex between FAK and Src kinases may serve to regulate the subcellular localization and the enzymatic activity of members of the Src family of kinases. We show that simultaneous overexpression of FAK and pp60c-srcor p59fynresults in the enhancement of the tyrosine phosphorylation of a limited number of cellular substrates, including paxillin. Under these conditions, tyrosine phosphorylation of paxillin is largely cell adhesion dependent. FAK mutants defective for Src binding or focal adhesion targeting fail to cooperate with pp60c-srcor p59fynto induce paxillin phosphorylation, whereas catalytically defective FAK mutants can direct paxillin phosphorylation. The negative regulatory site of pp60c-srcis hypophosphorylated when in complex with FAK, and coexpression with FAK leads to a redistribution of pp60c-srcfrom a diffuse cellular location to focal adhesions. A FAK mutant defective for Src binding does not effectively induce the translocation of pp60c-srcto focal adhesions. These results suggest that association with FAK can alter the localization of Src kinases and that FAK functions to direct phosphorylation of cellular substrates by recruitment of Src kinases.

Src family tyrosine kinases are signaling intermediates in a diverse array of cellular events including cell differentiation, motility, proliferation, and survival. In nonairway smooth muscle cells, muscarinic receptors directly interact with Src family tyrosine kinases. As little is known about the expression and signaling of these Src family tyrosine kinases in human airway smooth muscle cells, we determined the expression of Src family members and characterized the muscarinic receptor-mediated activation of Lyn kinase in these cells. RT-PCR revealed mRNA transcripts for FYN, c- SRC, YES, FRK, and LYN. Fyn, c-Src, Yes, and Lyn were identified in cultured airway smooth muscle cells by immunoblot analysis. In both nontransformed human cultured airway smooth muscle cells and cells transduced with wild-type human Lyn kinase, carbachol increased Lyn kinase activity. Pertussis toxin pretreatment failed to block carbachol activation of Lyn kinase but did attenuate the carbachol-induced increase in ERK/MAPK phosphorylation. Moreover, carbachol inhibited adenylyl cyclase but failed to increase total inositol phosphate synthesis in these cells. The present study shows that Lyn kinase is expressed in human cultured airway smooth muscle cells at both the mRNA and protein levels and that carbachol, an M2 muscarinic receptor agonist in these cells, activates Lyn kinase by a pertussis toxin-insensitive signaling pathway.

SRC family kinases are a group of nine cytoplasmic protein tyrosine kinases essential for many cell functions. Some appear to be ubiquitously expressed, whereas others are highly tissue specific. The ability of members of the SRC family to influence ion transport has been recognized for several years. Mounting evidence suggests a broad role for SRC family kinases in the cell response to both hypertonic and hypotonic stress, and in the ensuing regulatory volume increase or decrease. In addition, members of this tyrosine kinase family participate in the mechanotransduction that accompanies cell membrane deformation. Finally, at least one SRC family member operates in concert with the p38 MAPK to regulate tonicity-dependent gene transcription.

Full textAbstract:
The HBx protein of hepatitis B virus (HBV) is a small transcriptional transactivator that is essential for infection by the mammalian hepadnaviruses and is thought to be a cofactor in HBV-mediated liver cancer. HBx stimulates signal transduction pathways by acting in the cytoplasm, which accounts for many but not all of its transcriptional activities. Studies have shown that HBx protein activates Ras and downstream Ras signaling pathways including Raf, mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase kinase kinase (MEK), and MAP kinases. In this study, we investigated the mechanism of activation of Ras by HBx because it has been found to be central to the ability of HBx protein to stimulate transcription and to release growth arrest in quiescent cells. In contrast to the transient but strong stimulation of Ras typical of autocrine factors, activation of Ras by HBx protein was found to be constitutive but moderate. HBx induced the association of Ras upstream activating proteins Shc, Grb2, and Sos and stimulated GTP loading onto Ras, but without directly participating in complex formation. Instead, HBx is shown to stimulate Ras-activating proteins by functioning as an intracellular cytoplasmic activator of the Src family of tyrosine kinases, which can signal to Ras. HBx protein stimulated c-Src and Fyn kinases for a prolonged time. Activation of Src is shown to be indispensable for a number of HBx activities, including activation of Ras and the Ras-Raf-MAP kinase pathway and stimulation of transcription mediated by transcription factor AP-1. Importantly, HBx protein expressed in cultured cells during HBV replication is shown to activate the Ras signaling pathway. Mechanisms by which HBx protein might activate Src kinases are discussed.

Src family kinases (SFKs) constitute the biggest family of non-receptor tyrosine kinases considered as therapeutic targets for cancer therapy. An aberrant expression and/or activation of the proto-oncogene c-Src kinase, which is the oldest and most studied member of the family, has long been demonstrated to play a major role in the development, growth, progression and metastasis of numerous human cancers, including colon, breast, gastric, pancreatic, lung and brain carcinomas. For these reasons, the pharmacological inhibition of c-Src activity represents an effective anticancer strategy and a few compounds targeting c-Src, together with other kinases, have been approved as drugs for cancer therapy, while others are currently undergoing preclinical studies. Nevertheless, the development of potent and selective inhibitors of c-Src aimed at properly exploiting this biological target for the treatment of cancer still represents a growing field of study. In this review, the co-crystal structures of c-Src kinase in complex with inhibitors discovered in the past two decades have been described, highlighting the key ligand–protein interactions necessary to obtain high potency and the features to be exploited for addressing selectivity and drug resistance issues, thus providing useful information for the design of new and potent c-Src kinase inhibitors.

Several growth factors activate signal transducers and activators of transcription (Stats) but the mechanism of Stat activation in receptor tyrosine kinase signalling has remained elusive. In the present study we have analysed the roles of different platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-induced tyrosine kinases in the activation of Stat5. Co-expression experiments in insect and mammalian cells demonstrated that both PDGF β-receptor (PDGF β-R) and Jak1, but not c-Src, induced the activation of Stat5. Furthermore, immune-complex-purified PDGF β-R was able to phosphorylate Stat5 directly. The role of the cytoplasmic tyrosine kinases in the PDGF-induced activation of Stat5 was further investigated by overexpressing kinase-negative (KN) and wild-type Jak and c-Src kinases. Jak1-KN or Jak2-KN had no effect but both Src-KN and wild-type c-Src similarly decreased the PDGF-β-R-induced activation of Stat5. The activation of both Src and Stat5 is dependent on the same tyrosine residues Tyr579 and Tyr581 in PDGF β-R; thus the observed inhibition by Src might result from competition for binding of Stat5 to the receptor. Finally, fibroblasts derived from Src-/- and Fyn-/- mice showed normal pattern of PDGF-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of Stat5. Taken together, these results indicate that Stat5 is a direct substrate for PDGF β-R and that the activation does not require Jak1, Jak2, c-Src or Fyn tyrosine kinases.

Most of the nine members of the Src family of tyrosine kinases arc restricted in their expression, often to cells of the haematopoietic lineage, while some, particularly Src, Fyn and Yes, are more unbiquitously expressed. We have been studying the functions of Src, Fyn and Yes in fibroblasts. We have shown that stimulation of quiescent fibroblasts with platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) causes Src, Fyn and Yes to become activated, and to associate transiently with the PDGF receptor. To address the role of Src, Fyn and Yes in the response to PDGF, we have used a dominant negative approach, in which cells were engineered to express catalytically inactive forms of Src kinases. These cells were unable to enter S phase in response to PDGF, and we therefore conclude that Src family tyrosine kinases are required in order for the PDGF receptor to transmit a mitogenic signal. It has previously been shown that the kinase activity of Src is negatively regulated by phosphorylation of tyr 527 in its carboxy-terminal tail. A kinase, Csk, that phosphorylates tyr 527 has recently been identified. We expressed Src in yeast to test the model that phosphorylation of tyr 527 represses activity by promoting intramolecular association between the tail and the SH2 domain. Inducible expression of Src in S. pombe caused cell death. Co-expression of Csk counteracted this effect. Src proteins mutated in the SH2 domain were as lethal as wild-type Src, but were insensitive to Csk. We interpret these results in favour of an SH2 domain : phosphorylated tail interaction repressing Src activity. However, we have also found that Src molecules containing mutations in the SH3 domain are not regulated by Csk, suggesting that the SH3 domain also functions in the intramolecular regulation of Src activity.

The purpose of this study was to determine whether Src tyrosine kinases are one of the signaling intermediaries linking M2 receptor stimulation to extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) in cultures of canine colonic smooth muscle cells (CSMC). RT-PCR studies demonstrate expression of multiple Src tyrosine kinases, including Src, Fyn, and Yes, in CSMC. Muscarinic stimulation of CSMC with 10 μM ACh results in a twofold increase in Src activity within 10 min but does not increase the activity of Fyn. Treatment with the M2 antagonist AF-DX 116 (10 μM) blocks ACh-stimulated Src activation in primary CSMC cultures that express both M2and M3 receptors and in first-passage CSMC cultures that express predominantly M2 receptors. Alkylation of M3 receptors with 100 nM N,N-dimethyl-4-piperidinyl diphenylacetate mustard has no effect on Src activity. Treatment with the pyrazolopyrimidine Src inhibitor PP1 (10 μM) or AF-DX 116 (10 μM) blocks ACh-stimulated ERK phosphorylation. Together these results indicate that M2 receptors are coupled to Src tyrosine kinase and subsequent activation of ERK in cultured CSMC.

Full textAbstract:
The proto-oncogene nonreceptor tyrosine-protein kinase SRC is a member of the SRC family of tyrosine kinases (SFKs), and its activation and overexpression have been shown to play a protumorigenic role in multiple solid cancers, including pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). PDAC is currently the seventh-leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide, and, by 2030, it is predicted to become the second-leading cause of cancer-related death in the United States. PDAC is characterized by its high lethality (5-year survival of rate of <10%), invasiveness, and chemoresistance, all of which have been shown to be due to the presence of pancreatic cancer stem cells (PaCSCs) within the tumor. Due to the demonstrated overexpression of SRC in PDAC, we set out to determine if SRC kinases are important for PaCSC biology using pharmacological inhibitors of SRC kinases (dasatinib or PP2). Treatment of primary PDAC cultures established from patient-derived xenografts with dasatinib or PP2 reduced the clonogenic, self-renewal, and tumor-initiating capacity of PaCSCs, which we attribute to the downregulation of key signaling factors such as p-FAK, p-ERK1-2, and p-AKT. Therefore, this study not only validates that SRC kinases are relevant and biologically important for PaCSCs but also suggests that inhibitors of SRC kinases may represent a possible future treatment option for PDAC patients, although further studies are still needed.

Full textAbstract:
Activation of tyrosine kinases during integrin-mediated cell-matrix adhesion is involved both in the regulation of focal contact assembly and in the initiation of signaling processes at the cell-matrix adhesive interface. In order to determine the role of pp60c-src and related kinases in these processes, we have compared the dynamic reorganization of phosphotyrosine, vinculin, focal adhesion kinase and tensin in cells with altered expression of Src-family kinases. Both null cells for pp60c-src and triple knockout cells for pp60c-src, pp59fyn, and pp62c-yes exhibited decreased phosphotyrosine levels in focal contacts when compared with wild-type cells. pp60c-src-null cells also exhibited faster assembly of cell-matrix adhesions and a more exuberant recruitment of FAK to these sites. Tensin, which normally segregates into fibrillar adhesions was localized in large focal contacts in the two mutant cell lines, suggesting involvement of pp60c-src in the segregation of focal contacts and fibrillar adhesions. Moreover, treatment of wild-type cells with tyrphostin AG1007, which inhibits both pp60c-src and FAK activity, induced accumulation of tensin in peripheral focal adhesions. These findings demonstrate that Src family kinases, and pp60c-src in particular, have a central role in regulating protein dynamics at cell-matrix interfaces, both during early stages of interaction and in mature focal contacts.

Changes in cellular growth and dramatic alterations in cell morphology and adhesion are common features of cells transformed by oncogenic protein tyrosine kinases, such as pp60src and other members of the Src family. In this report, we present evidence for the stable association of two Src family kinases (pp60src and pp59fyn) with tyrosine-phosphorylated forms of a focal adhesion-associated protein tyrosine kinase, pp125FAK. In Src-transformed chicken embryo cells, most of the pp125FAK was stably complexed with activated pp60src (e.g., pp60(527F). The stable association of pp125FAK with pp60(527F) in vivo required the structural integrity of the Src SH2 domain. The association of pp60(527F) and pp125FAK could be reconstituted in vitro by incubation of normal cell extracts with glutathione S-transferase fusion proteins containing SH2 or SH3/SH2 domains of pp60src. Furthermore, the association of isolated SH2 or SH3/SH2 domains with in vitro 32P-labeled pp125FAK protected the major site of pp125FAK autophosphorylation from digestion with a tyrosine phosphatase, indicating that the autophosphorylation site of pp125FAK participates in binding with Src. Immunoprecipitation of Src family kinases from extracts of normal chicken embryo cells revealed stable complexes of pp59fyn and tyrosine-phosphorylated pp125FAK. These data provide evidence for a direct interaction between two cytoplasmic nonreceptor protein tyrosine kinases and suggest that Src may contribute to changes in pp125FAK regulation in transformed cells. Furthermore, pp125FAK may directly participate in the targeting of pp59fyn or possibly other Src family kinases to focal adhesions in normal cells.

The binding of von Willebrand factor (VWF) to glycoprotein (GP) Ib-IX-V stimulates transmembrane signaling events that lead to platelet adhesion and aggregation. Recent studies have implied that activation of Src family kinases is involved in GPIb-mediated platelet activation, although the related signal transduction pathway remains poorly defined. This study presents evidence for an important role of Src and GPIb association. In platelet lysates containing Complete, a broad-spectrum protease inhibitor mixture, Src and Lyn dynamically associated with GPIb on VWF-botrocetin stimulation. Cytochalasin D, which inhibits translocation of Src kinases to the cytoskeleton, further increased Src and GPIb association. Similar results were obtained with botrocetin and monomeric A1 domain, instead of intact VWF, with induction of both Src activation and association between GPIb and Src. These findings suggest that ligand binding of GPIb, without receptor clustering, is sufficient to activate Src. Immunoprecipitation studies demonstrated that Src, phosphoinositide 3– kinase (PI 3–kinase), and GPIb form a complex in GPIb-stimulated platelets. When the p85 subunit of PI 3–kinase was immunodepleted, association of Src with GPIb was abrogated. However, wortmannin, a specific PI 3–kinase inhibitor, failed to block complex formation between Src and GPIb. The Src-SH3 domain as a glutathione S-transferase (GST)–fusion protein coprecipitated the p85 subunit of PI 3–kinase and GPIb. These findings taken together suggest that the p85 subunit of PI 3–kinase mediates GPIb-related activation signals and activates Src independently of the enzymatic activity of PI 3– kinase.

ABSTRACT The nef gene from human and simian immunodeficiency viruses (HIV and SIV) regulates cell function and viral replication, possibly through binding of the nef product to cellular proteins, including Src family tyrosine kinases. We show here that the Nef protein encoded by SIVmac239 interacts with and also activates the human Src kinases Lck and Hck. This is in direct contrast to the inhibitory effect of HIV type 1 (HIV-1) Nef on Lck catalytic activity. Unexpectedly, however, the interaction of SIV Nef with human Lck or Hck is not mediated via its consensus proline motif, which is known to mediate HIV-1 Nef binding to Src homology 3 (SH3) domains, and various experimental analyses failed to show significant interaction of SIV Nef with the SH3 domain of either kinase. Instead, SIV Nef can bind Lck and Hck SH2 domains, and its N-terminal 50 amino acid residues are sufficient for Src kinase binding and activation. Our results provide evidence for multiple mechanisms by which Nef binds to and regulates Src kinases.

SUMMARYProtein kinases (PKs) of parasitic protozoa are being evaluated as drug targets. A large number of protein kinases within the protein kinome ofEntamoeba histolyticastrongly suggest that protein phosphorylation is a key component of pathogenesis regulation by this parasite. PI3 K and Src are kinases previously described in this parasite, but their role is poorly understood. Here, the effect of Src-1-inhibitor and PI3 K inhibitor (Wortmannin) on the virulence factors ofE. histolyticawas evaluated. Results show that both inhibitors affect the actin cytoskeleton and the amoebic movement. Also, the proteolytic activity is diminished by Wortmannin, but not by Src-inhibitor-1; however, the phagocytic capacity is diminished by Wortmannin and Src-1-inhibitor. Finally, we found that the virulencein vivoofE. histolyticais affected by Wortmannin but not by Src-1-inhibitor. This study opens the way for the design of anti-amoebic drugs based on kinase inhibition.

ABSTRACT Pseudomonas aeruginosa plays a major role in respiratory tract infections or sepsis in patients with cystic fibrosis or upon suppression of the immune system. Several P. aeruginosa strains have been shown to be internalized by human epithelial cells; however, the molecular mechanisms of the invasion process are poorly characterized. Here, we show that the internalization of P. aeruginosa into human epithelial cells results in and requires activation of the Src-like tyrosine kinases p59Fyn and p60Src and the consequent tyrosine phosphorylation of several eukaryotic proteins. The significance of Src-like tyrosine kinase activation is shown by an almost complete blockade of P. aeruginosa internalization, but not adhesion, upon inhibition of Src-like tyrosine kinases. Likewise, inhibition of P. aeruginosa binding to CFTR, which has been shown to blockP. aeruginosa internalization, prevents Src and Fyn activation, supporting a pivotal role of Src-like tyrosine kinases for invasion by P. aeruginosa.

To approach the transmembrane signaling pathway in the cell-to-cell adherens junctions (AJ), AJ-specific tyrosine phosphorylation was analyzed. When various types of rat adult tissues were pretreated with sodium orthovanadate, a potent inhibitor of tyrosine phosphatase, immunofluorescence microscopy showed that anti-phosphotyrosine polyclonal antibody specifically stained the undercoat of the cell-to-cell AJ. This indicates that the tyrosine kinase activity is elevated at the undercoat of the cell-to-cell AJ of adult tissues. To identify tyrosine kinases responsible for the high level of tyrosine phosphorylation at AJ, we have performed in vitro phosphorylation experiments with cell-to-cell AJ isolated from rat liver (Tsukita, Sh. and Sa. Tsukita. 1989. J. Cell Biol. 108:31-41) and immunoblotting analyses with specific antibodies for tyrosine kinases. As a result, three proto-oncogenic tyrosine kinases of src family, c-yes, c-src, and lyn kinases, were identified as major tyrosine kinases in the cell-to-cell AJ of hepatocytes. Furthermore, it was immunofluorescently shown that at least two of these kinases, c-yes and c-src kinases, were enriched at the cell-to-cell AJ of various types of cells including hepatocytes. Based on these findings, it is concluded that, in various types of cells, specific proto-oncogenic tyrosine kinases of src-family (c-yes and c-src) are enriched to work as signal mediators in the cell-to-cell AJ where the level of tyrosine phosphorylation is elevated.

Full textAbstract:
Protein tyrosine kinases are thought to participate in signal transduction pathways in a variety of cell types. Recent studies have identified a new src family protein tyrosine kinase (hck) that is preferentially expressed in myeloid cells. To examine the hypothesis that this kinase may regulate myeloid cell activity, antisera were generated that define the 59-kD product of the hck gene. Functional activation of human cultured macrophages with LPS augmented the expression of hck transcripts and of p59hck, but decreased the level of transcripts encoded by the closely related c-fgr protooncogene. Thus these two structurally similar src family kinases almost certainly subserve distinct functions. Reasoning from the known properties of the src family protein tyrosine kinases, it is likely that the products of these two protooncogenes assist in regulating the behavior of activated phagocytes.

ABSTRACT Fyn is a prototype Src-family tyrosine kinase that plays specific roles in neural development, keratinocyte differentiation, and lymphocyte activation, as well as roles redundant with other Src-family kinases. Similar to other Src-family kinases, efficient regulation of Fyn is achieved through intramolecular binding of its SH3 and SH2 domains to conserved regulatory regions. We have investigated the possibility that the tyrosine kinase regulatory protein Cbl provides a complementary mechanism of Fyn regulation. We show that Cbl overexpression in 293T embryonic kidney and Jurkat T-lymphocyte cells led to a dramatic reduction in the active pool of Fyn; this was seen as a reduction in Fyn autophosphorylation, reduced phosphorylation of in vivo substrates, and inhibition of transcription from a Src-family kinase response element linked to a luciferase reporter. Importantly, a Fyn mutant (FynY528F) relieved of intramolecular repression was still negatively regulated by Cbl. The Cbl-dependent negative regulation of Fyn did not appear to be mediated by inhibition of Fyn kinase activity but was correlated with enhanced protein turnover. Consistent with such a mechanism, elevated levels of Fyn protein were observed in cell lines derived from Cbl−/− mice compared to those in wild-type controls. The effects of Cbl on Fyn were not observed when the 70ZCbl mutant protein was analyzed. Taken together, these observations implicate Cbl as a component in the negative regulation of Fyn and potentially other Src-family kinases, especially following kinase activation. These results also suggest that protein degradation may be a general mechanism for Cbl-mediated negative regulation of activated tyrosine kinases.

Aberrant kinases contribute to cancer survival and proliferation. Here, we quantitatively characterized phosphoproteomic changes in an HBx-transgenic mouse model of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) using high-resolution mass spectrometry, profiled 22,539 phosphorylation sites on 5431 proteins. Using a strategy to interpret kinase- substrate relations in HCC and to uncover predominant kinases in tumors, our results, revealed elevated kinase activities of Src family kinases (SFKs), PKCs, MAPKs, and ROCK2 in HCC, representatives of which were further validated in cell models and clinical HBV-positive HCC samples. Inhibitor combinations targeting Src and PKCs or ROCK2 both synergized significantly to inhibit cell growth. In addition, we demonstrated that phosphorylation at Src Ser17 directly affects its kinase activity. Our phosphoproteome data facilitated the construction of a detailed molecular landscape in HCC and should serve as a resource for the cancer community. Our strategy is generally applicable to targeted therapeutics, also highlights potential mechanisms of kinase regulation.

Engagement of the B-cell antigen receptor complex induces immediate activation of receptor-associated Src family tyrosine kinases including p55blk, p59fyn, p53/56lyn, and perhaps p56lck, and this response is accompanied by tyrosine phosphorylation of distinct cellular substrates. These kinases act directly or indirectly to phosphorylate and/or activate effector proteins including p42 (microtubule-associated protein kinase) (MAPK), phospholipases C-gamma 1 (PLC gamma 1) and C-gamma 2 (PLC gamma 2), phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-K), and p21ras-GTPase-activating protein (GAP). Although coimmunoprecipitation results indicate that the Src family protein tyrosine kinases interact physically with some of these effector molecules, the molecular basis of this interaction has not been established. Here, we show that three distinct sites mediate the interaction of these kinases with effectors. The amino-terminal 27 residues of the unique domain of p56lyn mediate association with PLC gamma 2, MAPK, and GAP. Binding to PI 3-K is mediated through the Src homology 3 (SH3) domains of the Src family kinases. Relatively small proportions of cellular PI 3-K, PLC gamma 2, MAPK, and GAP, presumably those which are tyrosine phosphorylated, bind to the SH2 domains of these kinases. Comparative analysis of binding activities of Blk, Lyn, and Fyn shows that these kinases differ in their abilities to associate with MAPK and PI 3-K, suggesting that they may preferentially bind and subsequently phosphorylate distinct sets of downstream effector molecules in vivo. Fast protein liquid chromatography Mono Q column-fractionated MAPK maintains the ability to bind bacterially expressed Lyn, suggesting that the two kinases may interact directly.

Full textAbstract:
Integrin-mediated cell adhesion triggers intracellular signaling cascades, including tyrosine phosphorylation of intracellular proteins. Among these are the focal adhesion proteins p130cas (Cas) and focal adhesion kinase (FAK). Here we identify the kinase(s) mediating integrin-induced Cas phosphorylation and characterize protein-protein interactions mediated by phosphorylated Cas. We found that expression of a constitutively active FAK in fibroblasts results in a consecutive tyrosine phosphorylation of Cas. This effect required the autophosphorylation site of FAK, which is a binding site for Src family kinases. Integrin-mediated phosphorylation of Cas was not, however, compromised in fibroblasts lacking FAK. In contrast, adhesion-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of Cas was reduced in cells lacking Src, whereas enhanced phosphorylation of Cas was observed Csk- cells, in which Src kinases are activated. These results suggest that Src kinases are responsible for the integrin-mediated tyrosine phosphorylation of Cas. FAK seems not to be necessary for phosphorylation of Cas, but when autophosphorylated, FAK may recruit Src family kinases to phosphorylate Cas. Cas was found to form complexes with Src homology 2 (SH2) domain-containing signaling molecules, such as the SH2/SH3 adapter protein Crk, following integrin-induced tyrosine phosphorylation. Guanine nucleotide exchange factors C3G and Sos were found in the Cas-Crk complex upon integrin ligand binding. These observations suggest that Cas serves as a docking protein and may transduce signals to downstream signaling pathways following integrin-mediated cell adhesion.

Despite the importance of epithelial cell contacts in determining cell behavior, we still lack a detailed understanding of the assembly and disassembly of intercellular contacts. Here we examined the role of the catalytic activity of the Src family kinases at epithelial cell contacts in vitro. Like E- and P-cadherin, Ca2+ treatment of normal and tumor-derived human keratinocytes resulted in c-Yes (and c-Src and Fyn), as well as their putative substrate p120CTN, being recruited to cell–cell contacts. A tyrosine kinase inhibitor with selectivity against the Src family kinases, PD162531, and a dominant-inhibitory c-Src protein that interferes with the catalytic function of the endogenous Src kinases induced cell–cell contact and E-cadherin redistribution, even in low Ca2+, which does not normally support stable cell–cell adhesion. Time-lapse microscopy demonstrated that Src kinase inhibition induced stabilization of transiently formed intercellular contacts in low Ca2+. Furthermore, a combination of E- and P-cadherin-specific antibodies suppressed cell–cell contact, indicating cadherin involvement. As a consequence of contact stabilization, normal cells were unable to dissociate from an epithelial sheet formed at high density and repair a wound in vitro, although individual cells were still motile. Thus, cadherin-dependent contacts can be stabilized both by high Ca2+ and by inhibiting Src activity in low (0.03 mM) Ca2+ in vitro.

ABSTRACTAfa/Dr fimbriae constitute the major virulence factor of diffusely adheringEscherichia coli(Afa/Dr DAEC). After recognizing membrane-bound signaling receptors, they trigger cell responses. One of these receptors is the human decay-accelerating factor (hDAF). It has previously been reported that the binding of Afa/Dr fimbriae to hDAF quickly induces recruitment of hDAF around adhering bacteria. The aim of our study is to analyze the role of Src kinases in the Dr fimbria-induced recruitment of hDAF. Using biochemical methods and confocal microscopy followed by 3-dimensional (3D) analysis, we have shown that the activation and cell membrane targeting of Src kinases are necessary for the recruitment and organization of hDAF around adhering bacteria. We identified c-Src to be the specific kinase involved in this process. Using a set of Src-green fluorescent protein mutants, we showed that the catalytic activity and the Src homology 2 (SH2) and SH3 domains of the Src kinases are necessary for Dr fimbria-induced hDAF mobilization to occur. In addition, using mutated Dr fimbriae and a set of mutated hDAFs in which each of the complement control protein (CCP) domains had successively been deleted, we found that the aspartic acids at position 54 in the Dr fimbriae and in CCP domain 4 of hDAF played pivotal roles in the mobilization of the Src kinases and hDAF, respectively.

Src is the representative member of the Src-family kinases (SFKs), a group of tyrosine kinases involved in several cellular processes. Its main function has been for long confined to the plasma membrane/cytoplasm compartment, being a myristoylated protein anchored to the cell membrane and functioning downstream to receptors, most of them lacking intrinsic kinase activity. In the last decades, new roles for some SFKs have been described in the nuclear compartment, suggesting that these proteins can also be involved in directly regulating gene transcription or nucleoskeleton architecture. In this review, we focused on those nuclear functions specifically attributable to Src, by considering its function as both tyrosine kinase and adapting molecule. In particular, we addressed the Src involvement in physiological as well as in pathological conditions, especially in tumors.
