Abstract
c-fps/fes encodes a 92-kDa protein-tyrosine kinase (NCP92) that is expressed at the highest levels in macrophages. To determine if c-fps/fes can mediate the action of the colony-stimulating factor 1 (CSF-1) receptor (CSF-1R) and to identify potential targets of c-fps/fes in macrophages, we have overexpressed c-fps/fes in a CSF-1-dependent macrophage cell line. A 30- to 50-fold overexpression of c-fps/fes partially released these cells from their factor dependence by a nonautocrine mechanism, and this correlated with the tyrosine phosphorylation of two proteins of 130 and 75 kDa (P130 and P75). c-fps/fes did not cause tyrosine phosphorylation or activation of CSF-1 dependent targets, including CSF-1R, Shc, and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, and conversely, CSF-1 did not induce tyrosine phosphorylation of P130 and P75. P75 appears to be a novel phosphotyrosyl protein, whereas P130 cross-reacts with a known substrate of v-src. P130 and P75 may be direct substrates of c-fps/fes: P130 was tightly associated with NCP92, and the src homology 2 domain of NCP92 specifically bound phosphorylated P130 and P75 but not the CSF-1-induced phosphotyrosyl proteins, consistent with the possibility that P130 and P75 are physiological targets of c-fps/fes. We conclude that although c-fps/fes can functionally substitute for CSF-1R to a certain extent, these tyrosine kinases act largely independently of each other and that P130 and P75 are novel targets whose mechanisms of action may be unrelated to the signalling pathways utilized by receptor tyrosine kinases.

Abstract
The mitogenic action of cytokines such as epidermal growth factor (EGF) or platelet derived growth factor (PDGF) involves the stimulation of a signal cascade controlled by a small G protein called Ras. Mutations of Ras can cause its constitutive activation and, as a consequence, bypass the regulation of cell growth by cytokines. Both growth factor-induced and oncogenic activation of Ras involve the conversion of Ras from the GDP-bound (D-Ras) to the GTP-bound (T-Ras) forms. T-Ras activates a network of protein kinases including c-Mos, c-Raf-1 and MAP kinase. Eventually the activation of MAP kinase leads to the activation of the elongation factor 4E and several transcription factors such as c-Jun, c-Myc and c-Fos. There are several modulators of Ras activity, such as the GTPase activating proteins (GAP1 and NF1), which stimulate the conversion of T-Ras to D-Ras. A series of small NF1 fragments, which bind T-Ras, as well as truncated forms of derivatives of c-Raf-1, c-Jun and c-Myc, are capable of blocking the T-Ras-activated mitogenesis in a competitive manner. These agents offer a unique opportunity to control the proliferation of T-Ras-associated tumors, which represent more than 30% of total human carcinomas.

Abstract
We have analyzed two functionally significant amino acid alterations encoded by the temperature-sensitive (ts) v-src mutant of Rous sarcoma virus, LA32. The G-to-V change at residue 300 in the catalytic domain nonconditionally impairs morphological transformation, in vitro kinase activity, in vivo tyrosine phosphorylation, and the cytoskeletal association of v-Src while rendering anchorage- and serum-independent growth ts. The R-to-P mutation in the SH3 domain subtly enhances morphological transformation but has no phenotype if the catalytic domain is inactivated. In the presence of the G-300-to-V mutation, this SH3 domain lesion does not affect v-Src in vitro kinase activity and cytoskeletal association, but it nonconditionally enhances cellular tyrosine phosphorylation and restores morphological transformation at the permissive temperature only. This ability to induce a ts transformed morphology, in concert with nonconditional elevations of cellular phosphotyrosine, suggest that a subset of v-Src targets that are crucial to transformation may be affected in ts fashion by the SH3 mutation. Consistent with this, we find that the R-107-to-P mutation confers ts activity and tyrosine phosphorylation on the SH3-binding enzyme phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase. Thus, both the SH3 and catalytic domain mutations in LA32 have some ts attributes and they cooperate in determining the mutant's behavior. The ts SH3 mutation is unique and offers the potential for deeper understanding of the function of this domain.

Abstract
c-Crk is a proto-oncogene product composed largely of Src homology (SH) 2 and 3 domains. We have identified a kinase activity, which binds to the first Crk SH3 domain and phosphorylates c-Crk on tyrosine 221 (Y221), as c-Abl. c-Abl has a strong preference for c-Crk, when compared with common tyrosine kinase substrates. The phosphorylation of c-Crk Y221 creates a binding site for the Crk SH2 domain. Bacterially expressed c-Crk protein lacks phosphorylation on Y221 and can bind specifically to several proteins, while mammalian c-Crk, which is phosphorylated on tyrosine, remains uncomplexed. The protein binding activity of c-Crk is therefore likely regulated by a mechanism similar to that of the Src family kinases. v-Crk is truncated before c-Crk Y221 and forms constitutive complexes with c-Abl and other proteins. Our results suggest that c-Abl regulates c-Crk function and that it could be involved in v-Crk transformation.

Abstract
Proteins that bind to discrete domains of the Blk, Fyn, Lyn, and Btk protein tyrosine kinases were examined in pre-B cells that had not been subjected to any external stimulation, as well as in nonstimulated and antigen-receptor-ligated B cells. Proteins that bind to the Src homology 2 domains of Blk and Fyn were identified in B cells that had been activated with anti-IgM but were not identified in unstimulated B cells. A number of Blk and Fyn Src homology 2 domain-binding phosphoproteins were also observed in pre-B cells that had not been stimulated in vitro. The phosphoproteins seen in activated B cells potentially represent substrates that play a role in the pathway of antigen-receptor-mediated signaling. Distinct signaling pathways involving distinguishable kinase substrates may be relevant in pre-B-cell-receptor-mediated cell survival during ontogeny. These results indirectly support models that predict constitutive ligand-independent signaling by the pre-antigen receptor during lymphoid ontogeny.

Abstract
To understand the normal and oncogenic functions of the protein-tyrosine kinase Abl, the yeast two-hybrid system has been used for identifying proteins that interact with it. One interacting protein is Crk-I, an SH3/SH2-containing adapter protein that was originally identified as the oncogenic element in the avian sarcoma virus CT10. Direct interaction between the Crk-I SH3 and Abl at novel, approximately 10 amino acid sites just carboxy-terminal to the Abl kinase domain occurs in vitro and in mammalian cells. There is a nearby site specific for binding another adapter, Nck, and these sites also bind Grb-2. When bound to Abl, Crk-I was phosphorylated on tyrosine. Thus, the SH3-binding sites on Abl serve as substrate recognition sites for the relatively nonspecific kinase of Abl. In Crk-I-transformed cells, Crk-I associates with endogenous c-Abl and is phosphorylated on tyrosine. The association of Crk and Abl suggests that Abl could play a role in v-Crk and Crk-I transformation and that normal Abl function may be partly mediated through bound adapter molecules.

Abstract
The phosphorylation of protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs) on tyrosine residues is a critical regulatory event that modulates catalytic activity and triggers the physical association of PTKs with Src homology 2 (SH2)-containing proteins. The integrin-linked focal adhesion kinase, pp125FAK, exhibits extracellular matrix-dependent phosphorylation on tyrosine and physically associates with two nonreceptor PTKs, pp60src and pp59fyn, via their SH2 domains. Herein, we identify Tyr-397 as the major site of tyrosine phosphorylation on pp125FAK both in vivo and in vitro. Tyrosine 397 is located at the juncture of the N-terminal and catalytic domains, a novel site for PTK autophosphorylation. Mutation of Tyr-397 to a nonphosphorylatable residue dramatically impairs the phosphorylation of pp125FAK on tyrosine in vivo and in vitro. The mutation of Tyr-397 to Phe also inhibits the formation of stable complexes with pp60src in cells expressing Src and FAK397F, suggesting that autophosphorylation of pp125FAK may regulate the association of pp125FAK with Src family kinases in vivo. The identification of Tyr-397 as a major site for FAK autophosphorylation provides one of the first examples of a cellular protein containing a high-affinity binding site for a Src family kinase SH2 domain. This finding has implications for models describing the mechanisms of action of pp125FAK, the regulation of the Src family of PTKs, and signal transduction through the integrins.

Abstract
Many oncogenes encode protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs). Oncogenic mutations of these genes invariably result in constitutive activation of these PTKs. Autophosphorylation of the PTKs and tyrosine phosphorylation of their cellular substrates are essential events for transmission of the mitogenic signal into cells. The recent discovery of the characteristic amino acid sequences, of the src homology domains 2 and 3 (SH2 and SH3), and extensive studies on proteins containing the SH2 and SH3 domains have revealed that protein tyrosine-phosphorylation of PTKs provides phosphotyrosine sites for SH2 binding and allows extracellular signals to be relayed into the nucleus through a chain of protein-protein interactions mediated by the SH2 and SH3 domains. Studies on oncogenes, PTKs and SH2/SH3-containing proteins have made a tremendous contribution to our understanding of the mechanisms for the control of cell growth, oncogenesis, and signal transduction. This review is intended to provide an outline of the most recent progress in the study of signal transduction by PTKs. Copyright 1994 S. Karger AG, Basel

Abstract
The genome of avian sarcoma virus CT10 encodes a fusion protein in which viral Gag sequences are fused to cellular Crk sequences containing primarily Src homology 2 (SH2) and Src homology 3 (SH3) domains. Transformation of chicken embryo fibroblasts (CEF) with the Gag-Crk fusion protein results in the elevation of tyrosine phosphorylation on specific cellular proteins with molecular weights of 130,000, 110,000, and 70,000 (p130, p110, and p70, respectively), an event which has been correlated with cell transformation. In this study, we have identified the 70-kDa tyrosine-phosphorylated protein in CT10-transformed CEF (CT10-CEF) as paxillin, a cytoskeletal protein suggested to be important for organizing the focal adhesion. Tyrosine-phosphorylated paxillin was found to be complexed with v-Crk in vivo as evident from coimmunoprecipitation studies. Moreover, a bacterially expressed recombinant glutathione S-transferase (GST)-CrkSH2 fragment bound paxillin in vitro with a subnanomolar affinity, suggesting that the SH2 domain of v-Crk is sufficient for binding. Mapping of the sequence specificity of a GST-CrkSH2 fusion protein with a partially degenerate phosphopeptide library determined a motif consisting of pYDXP, and in competitive coprecipitation studies, an acetylated A(p)YDAPA hexapeptide was able to quantitatively inhibit the binding of GST-CrkSH2 to paxillin and p130, suggesting that it meets the minimal structural requirements necessary for the interaction of CrkSH2 with physiological targets. To investigate the mechanism by which v-Crk elevates the tyrosine phosphorylation of paxillin in vivo, we have treated normal CEF and CT10-CEF with sodium vanadate to inhibit protein tyrosine phosphatase activity. These data suggest that paxillin is involved in a highly dynamic kinase-phosphatase interplay in normal CEF and that v-Crk binding may interrupt this balance to increase the steady-state level of tyrosine phosphorylation. By contrast, the 130-kDa protein was not tyrosine phosphorylated upon vanadate treatment of normal CEF and only weakly affected in the CT10-CEF, suggesting that a different mechanism may be involved in its phosphorylation.

Abstract
Human CRK protein is a homolog of the chicken v-crk oncogene product and consists mostly of src homology region 2 (SH2) and SH3, which are shared by many proteins, in particular those involved in signal transduction. SH2 has been shown to bind specifically to phosphotyrosine-containing peptides. We report here that both SH2 and SH3 are required for signaling from CRK protein. Microinjection of the CRK protein induced neurite formation of rat pheochromocytoma cell line PC12. This activity was abolished by mutation of the CRK protein in either SH2 or SH3. The neuronal differentiation induced by the CRK protein was blocked by an excess amount of peptides containing CRK SH3. Moreover, we identified three proteins, of 118, 125, and 136 kDa, which bound specifically to CRK SH3. The CRK-induced neuronal differentiation was also suppressed by monoclonal antibodies against either CRK SH2 or p21ras. These results suggest that both SH2 and SH3 of the CRK protein mediate specific protein-protein binding and that the resulting multimolecular complex generates a signal for neurite differentiation through activation of p21ras.

Abstract
We have developed a competition binding assay to quantify relative affinities of isolated Src-homology 2 (SH2) domains for phosphopeptide sequences. Eleven synthetic 11-12-amino acid phosphopeptides containing YMXM or YVXM recognition motifs bound to a PI 3-kinase p85 SH2 domain with highest affinities, including sequences surrounding phosphorylated tyrosines of the PDGF, CSF-1/c-Fms, and kit-encoded receptors, IRS-1, and polyoma middle T antigens; matched, unphosphorylated sequences did not bind. A scrambled YMXM phosphopeptide or sequences corresponding to the GAP or PLC-gamma SH2 domain binding motifs of the PDGF, FGF, and EGF receptors bound to the p85 SH2 domain with 30-100-fold reduced affinity, indicating that this affinity range confers specificity. Binding specificity was appropriately reversed with an SH2 domain from PLC-gamma: a phosphopeptide corresponding to the site surrounding PDGF receptor Tyr1021 binds with approximately 40-fold higher affinity than a YMXM-phosphopeptide. We conclude that essential features of specific phosphoprotein/SH2 domain interactions can be reconstituted using truncated versions of both the phosphoprotein (a phosphopeptide) and cognate SH2 domain-containing protein (the SH2 domain). SH2 domain binding specificity results from differences in affinity conferred by the linear sequence surrounding phosphotyrosine.

Abstract
Two related cellular proteins, p80 and p85 (cortactin), become phosphorylated on tyrosine in pp60src-transformed cells and in cells stimulated with certain growth factors. The amino-terminal half of cortactin is comprised of multiple copies of an internal, tandem 37-amino acid repeat. The carboxyl-terminal half contains a distal SH3 domain. We report that cortactin is an F-actin-binding protein. The binding to F-actin is specific and saturable. The amino-terminal repeat region appears to be both necessary and sufficient to mediate actin binding, whereas the SH3 domain had no apparent effect on the actin-binding activity. Cortactin, present in several different cell types, is enriched in cortical structures such as membrane ruffles and lamellipodia. The properties of cortactin indicate that it may be important for microfilament-membrane interactions as well as transducing signals from the cell surface to the cytoskeleton. We suggest the name cortactin, reflecting the cortical subcellular localization and its actin-binding activity.

Abstract
Signalling proteins such as phospholipase C-gamma (PLC-gamma) or GTPase-activating protein (GAP) of ras contain conserved regions of approximately 100 amino acids termed src homology 2 (SH2) domains. SH2 domains were shown to be responsible for mediating association between signalling proteins and tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins, including growth factor receptors. Nck is an ubiquitously expressed protein consisting exclusively of one SH2 and three SH3 domains. Here we show that epidermal growth factor or platelet-derived growth factor stimulation of intact human or murine cells leads to phosphorylation of Nck protein on tyrosine, serine, and threonine residues. Similar stimulation of Nck phosphorylation was detected upon activation of rat basophilic leukemia RBL-2H3 cells by cross-linking of the high-affinity immunoglobulin E receptors (Fc epsilon RI). Ligand-activated, tyrosine-autophosphorylated platelet-derived growth factor or epidermal growth factor receptors were coimmunoprecipitated with anti-Nck antibodies, and the association with either receptor molecule was mediated by the SH2 domain of Nck. Addition of phorbol ester was also able to stimulate Nck phosphorylation on serine residues. However, growth factor-induced serine/threonine phosphorylation of Nck was not mediated by protein kinase C. Interestingly, approximately fivefold overexpression of Nck in NIH 3T3 cells resulted in formation of oncogenic foci. These results show that Nck is an oncogenic protein and a common target for the action of different surface receptors. Nck probably functions as an adaptor protein which links surface receptors with tyrosine kinase activity to downstream signalling pathways involved in the control of cell proliferation.

Abstract
The 47-kDa protein coimmunoprecipitated with phospholipase C (PLC)-gamma 1 by anti-PLC-gamma 1 monoclonal antibodies is proved to be Nck, a protein composed almost exclusively of one SH2 and three SH3 domains. Nck and PLC-gamma 1 are recognized by certain anti-PLC-gamma 1 monoclonal antibodies because Nck and PLC-gamma 1 share an epitope that likely is located in their SH3 domains. Nck is widely distributed in rat tissues, with an especially high level of expression in testes. The expression levels of Nck remains unchanged during the development of rat brain, whereas PLC-gamma 1 decreases during the same developmental period. Stimulation of A431 cells with epidermal growth factor elicits the tight association of Nck with the epidermal growth factor receptor and phosphorylation of Nck on both serine and tyrosine residues. The phosphorylation of Nck is also enhanced in response to stimulation of the nerve growth factor receptor in PC12 cells, the T-cell receptor complex in Jurkat cells, the membrane immunoglobulin M in Daudi cells, and the low-affinity immunoglobulin G receptor (Fc gamma RII) in U937 cells. The phosphorylation of Nck was also enhanced following treatment of A431 cells with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate or forskolin. These results suggest that Nck is a target for a variety of protein kinases that might modulate the postulated role of Nck as an adaptor for the physical and functional coordination of signalling proteins.

Abstract
Specific phosphorylated tyrosine residues in the kinase insert region of the human platelet-derived-growth-factor beta-receptor mediate the formation of multienzyme complexes with this receptor. When phosphorylated, tyrosine residue 751 within the kinase insert region mediates binding of PtdIns 3-kinase to this receptor. A 17-amino-acid peptide containing this tyrosine residue was synthesized, phosphorylated by using epidermal-growth-factor receptor and then coupled to an Actigel matrix. The tyrosine-751 phosphopeptide column is used here as a final affinity step in the purification of the PtdIns 3-kinase from bovine brain to apparent homogeneity. The active resin-bound PtdIns 3-kinase is composed of two polypeptides, p110 and p85, which are elutable with SDS-containing buffers and detectable by silver staining of polyacrylamide gels. The 85 kDa protein is shown to be identical with the recently cloned p85 alpha. Phosphotyrosine is demonstrated to be an essential part of the structure required for binding of both of these proteins and PtdIns 3-kinase activity to this peptide. The active PtdIns 3-kinase complex from bovine brain, but not recombinant p85 subunits, shows specificity for binding to phosphopeptides containing a YXXM consensus sequence. Neither PtdIns 3-kinase activity, nor the complex of p85 and 110 kDa proteins, binds to several other phosphopeptide affinity columns lacking this sequence motif. The selectivity of binding of baculovirus-expressed free p85 alpha subunit of bovine brain PtdIns 3-kinase, the closely related protein p85 beta and purified bovine brain PtdIns 3-kinase to these and other phosphopeptide columns is examined.

Abstract
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.

Abstract
A number of proteins involved in intracellular signaling contain regions of homology to the product of the src oncogene that are termed Src-homology (SH) 2 domains. SH2 domains are believed to mediate the association of these proteins with various tyrosine-phosphorylated receptors in a growth factor-dependent manner. We have examined the kinetic characteristics of one of these interactions, the binding of the SH2 domains of phospholipase C gamma 1 with the receptor for epidermal growth factor (EGF). Bacterial fusion proteins were prepared containing the two SH2 domains of PLC gamma 1 and labeled metabolically with [35S]methionine/cysteine. A fusion protein containing both SH2 domains bound to the purified EGF receptor from EGF-treated cells, whereas no binding to receptors from control cells was detected. Binding was rapid, reaching apparent equilibrium by 10 min. Dissociation of the complex occurred only in the presence of excess unlabeled SH2 protein and exhibited two kinetic components. Similarly, analysis of apparent equilibrium binding revealed a nonlinear Scatchard plot, further indicating complex binding kinetics that may reflect cooperative behavior. The binding of the fusion protein containing both SH2 domains was inhibited by a fusion protein containing only the amino-terminal SH2 domain, although at concentrations an order of magnitude higher than that observed with the complete fusion protein. Fusion proteins containing SH2 domains from the GTPase-activating protein, the p85 regulatory subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase, or the Abl oncoprotein competed less effectively. Binding of the PLC gamma 1 SH2 fusion protein to a mutant EGF receptor lacking the two carboxyl-terminal tyrosine phosphorylation sites exhibited a significantly lower affinity than that observed with the wild type, suggesting that this region of the receptor may play an important role. This binding assay represents a means with which to evaluate the pleiotropic nature of growth factor action.

Abstract
The mammalian shc gene encodes two overlapping proteins of 46 and 52 kDa, each with a C-terminal Src homology 2 (SH2) domain and an N-terminal glycine/proline-rich sequence, that induce malignant transformation when overexpressed in mouse fibroblasts. p46shc, p52shc, and an additional 66-kDa shc gene product become highly tyrosine phosphorylated in Rat-2 cells transformed by the v-src or v-fps oncogene. Experiments using temperature-sensitive v-src and v-fps mutants indicate that Shc tyrosine phosphorylation is rapidly induced upon activation of the v-Src or v-Fps tyrosine kinases. These results suggest that Shc proteins may be directly phosphorylated by the v-Src and v-Fps oncoproteins in vivo. In cells transformed by v-src or v-fps, or in normal cells stimulated with epidermal growth factor, Shc proteins complex with a poorly phosphorylated 23-kDa polypeptide (p23). Activated tyrosine kinases therefore regulate the association of Shc proteins with p23 and may thereby control the stimulation of an Shc-mediated signal transduction pathway. The efficient phosphorylation of Shc proteins and the apparent induction of their p23-binding activity in v-src- and v-fps-transformed cells are consistent with the proposition that the SH2-containing Shc polypeptides are biologically relevant substrates of the oncogenic v-Src and v-Fps tyrosine kinases.

Abstract
Two distinct human CRK cDNAs, designated CRK-I and CRK-II, were isolated from human embryonic lung cells by polymerase chain reaction and by screening of a human placenta cDNA library, respectively. CRK-I differed from CRK-II in that it lacked a 170-nucleotide sequence, suggesting that CRK-I and CRK-II were the products of alternative splicing. The amino acid sequences deduced from these two cDNAs differed in the carboxyl termini and contained one SH2 and either one or two SH3 domains. RNAse protection analysis demonstrated both CRK-I and CRK-II mRNAs in various human cells. Three CRK proteins, of 42, 40, and 28 kDa, were identified in human embryonic lung cells by means of antibodies against the SH2 region and the SH3 region of the bacterially expressed CRK-I protein. Transient expression of CRK-I and CRK-II cDNAs in COS7 cells showed that the former encoded the 28-kDa protein and the latter encoded the 40- and 42-kDa proteins. All human cell lines so far examined expressed the 40-kDa protein; however, expression of the 28- and the 42-kDa proteins was variable. In a comparison of the biological activity of the two human CRK proteins, both proteins were stably expressed in rat 3Y1 cells. All cell lines expressing CRK-I protein showed altered morphology, proliferated in soft agar, and grew as massive tumors in nude mice. Although CRK-II-expressing cells showed a slight morphologic change, they did not make colonies in soft agar or grow in nude mice. These results demonstrate that the two species of human CRK cDNA encode proteins which differ in their biological activities.

Abstract
To determine the sequences of the oncogenes src (encoded by Rous sarcoma virus [RSV]) and ros (encoded by UR2) that are responsible for causing different transformation phenotypes and to correlate those sequences with differences in substrate recognition, we constructed recombinants of the two transforming protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs) and studied their biological and biochemical properties. A recombinant with a 5' end from src and a 3' end from ros, called SRC x ROS, transformed chicken embryo fibroblasts (CEF) to a spindle shape morphology, mimicking that of UR2. Neither of the two reverse constructs, ROS x SRC I and ROS x SRC II, could transform CEF. However, a transforming variant of ROS x SRC II appeared during passages of the transfected cells and was called ROS x SRC (R). ROS x SRC (R) contains a 16-amino-acid deletion that includes the 3' half of the transmembrane domain of ros. Unlike RSV, ROS x SRC (R) also transformed CEF to an elongated shape similar to that of UR2. We conclude that distinct phenotypic changes of RSV- and UR2-infected cells do not depend solely on the kinase domains of their oncogenes. We next examined cellular proteins phosphorylated by the tyrosine kinases of UR2, RSV, and their recombinants as well as a number of other avian sarcoma viruses including Fujinami sarcoma virus Y73, and some ros-derived variants. Our results indicate that the UR2-encoded receptorlike PTK P68gag-ros and its derivatives have a very restricted substrate specificity in comparison with the nonreceptor PTKs encoded by the rest of the avian sarcoma viruses. Data from ros and src recombinants indicate that sequences both inside and outside the catalytic domains of ros and src exert a significant effect on the substrate specificity of the two recombinant proteins. Phosphorylation of most of the proteins in the 100- to 200-kDa range correlated with the presence of the 5' src domain, including the SH2 region, but not with the kinase domain in the recombinants. This corroborates the conclusion given above that the kinase domain of src or ros per se is not sufficient to dictate the transforming morphology of these two oncogenes. High-level tyrosyl phosphorylation of most of the prominent substrates of src is not sufficient to cause a round-shape transformation morphology.

Abstract
Two distinct human CRK cDNAs, designated CRK-I and CRK-II, were isolated from human embryonic lung cells by polymerase chain reaction and by screening of a human placenta cDNA library, respectively. CRK-I differed from CRK-II in that it lacked a 170-nucleotide sequence, suggesting that CRK-I and CRK-II were the products of alternative splicing. The amino acid sequences deduced from these two cDNAs differed in the carboxyl termini and contained one SH2 and either one or two SH3 domains. RNAse protection analysis demonstrated both CRK-I and CRK-II mRNAs in various human cells. Three CRK proteins, of 42, 40, and 28 kDa, were identified in human embryonic lung cells by means of antibodies against the SH2 region and the SH3 region of the bacterially expressed CRK-I protein. Transient expression of CRK-I and CRK-II cDNAs in COS7 cells showed that the former encoded the 28-kDa protein and the latter encoded the 40- and 42-kDa proteins. All human cell lines so far examined expressed the 40-kDa protein; however, expression of the 28- and the 42-kDa proteins was variable. In a comparison of the biological activity of the two human CRK proteins, both proteins were stably expressed in rat 3Y1 cells. All cell lines expressing CRK-I protein showed altered morphology, proliferated in soft agar, and grew as massive tumors in nude mice. Although CRK-II-expressing cells showed a slight morphologic change, they did not make colonies in soft agar or grow in nude mice. These results demonstrate that the two species of human CRK cDNA encode proteins which differ in their biological activities.

Abstract
Protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPases) are a family of enzymes important in cellular regulation. Characterization of two cDNAs encoding intracellular PTPases expressed primarily in hematopoietic tissues and cell lines has revealed proteins that are potential regulators of signal transduction. One of these, SHP (Src homology region 2 [SH2]-domain phosphatase), possesses two tandem SH2 domains at the amino terminus of the molecule. SH2 domains have previously been described in proteins implicated in signal transduction, and SHP may be one of a family of nonreceptor PTPases that can act as direct antagonists to the nonreceptor protein tyrosine kinases. The SH2 domains of SHP preferentially bind a 15,000-Mr protein expressed by LSTRA cells. LSTRA cells were shown to express SHP protein by immunoprecipitation, thus demonstrating a potential physiological interaction. The other PTPase, PEP (proline-, glutamic acid-, serine-, and threonine-rich [PEST]-domain phosphatase), is distinguished by virtue of a large carboxy-terminal domain of approximately 500 amino acids that is rich in PEST residues. PEST sequences are found in proteins that are rapidly degraded. Both proteins have been expressed by in vitro transcription and translation and in bacterial expression systems, and both have been demonstrated to have PTPase activity. These two additional members of the PTPase family accentuate the variety of PTPase structures and indicate the potential diversity of function for intracellular tyrosine phosphatases.

Abstract
Upon stimulation by its ligand, the platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) receptor associates with the 85-kDa subunit of phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase. The 85-kDa protein (p85) contains two Src homology 2 (SH2) domains and one SH3 domain. To define the part of p85 that interacts with the PDGF receptor, a series of truncated p85 mutants was analyzed for association with immobilized PDGF receptor in vitro. We found that a fragment of p85 that contains a single Src homology domain, the C-terminal SH2 domain (SH2-C), was sufficient for directing the high-affinity interaction with the receptor. Half-maximal binding of SH2-C to the receptor was observed at an SH2-C concentration of 0.06 nM. SH2-C, like full-length p85, was able to distinguish between wild-type PDGF receptor and a mutant receptor lacking the PI 3-kinase binding site. An excess of SH2-C blocked binding of full-length p85 and PI 3-kinase to the receptor but did not interfere with the binding of two other SH2-containing proteins, phospholipase C-gamma and GTPase-activating protein. These results demonstrate that a region of p85 containing a single SH2 domain accounts both for the high affinity and specificity of binding of PI 3-kinase to the PDGF receptor.

Abstract
The amino-termina, noncatalytic half of Src contains two domains, designated the Src homology 2 (SH2) and Src homology 3 (SH3) domains, that are highly conserved among members of the Src family of tyrosine kinases. The SH2 domain (which can be further divided into the B and C homology boxes) and the SH3 domain (also referred to as the A box) are also found in several proteins otherwise unrelated to protein tyrosine kinases. It is believed that these domains are important for directing specific protein-protein interactions necessary for the proper functioning of Src. To determine the importance of the SH2 and SH3 domains in regulating the functions of c-Src, we evaluated mutants of c-Src lacking the A box (residues 88 to 137), the B box (residues 148 to 187) or the C box (residues 220 to 231). Each of these deletions caused a 14- to 30-fold increase in the in vitro level of kinase activity of c-Src. Chicken embryo fibroblasts expressing the deletion mutants displayed a transformed cell morphology, formed colonies in soft agar, and contained elevated levels of cellular phosphotyrosine-containing proteins. Src substrates p36, p85, p120, p125, the GTPase-activating protein (GAP), and several GAP-associated proteins were phosphorylated on tyrosine in cells expressing the A, B, or C box deletion mutant. p110 was highly phosphorylated in cells expressing the C box mutant, was weakly phosphorylated in cells expressing the B box mutant, and was not phosphorylated in cells expressing the A box mutant. Expression of the mutant proteins caused a reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton similar to that seen in v-Src-transformed cells. In addition, deletion of the A, B, or C box did not diminish the transforming or enzymatic activity of an activated variant of c-Src, E378G. These data indicate that deletion of the A, B, or C homology box causes an activation of the catalytic and transforming potential of c-Src and that while these mutations caused subtle differences in substrate phosphorylation, the homology boxes are not required for many of the phenotypic changes associated with transformation by Src.

Abstract
Cloning and sequencing of chicken C-terminal Src kinase (CSK), a tyrosine kinase that phosphorylates the regulatory C-terminal tyrosine residue present on cytoplasmic tyrosine kinases of the Src family, demonstrated a high degree of interspecies conservation as well as src homology 2 and 3 domains N-terminal to the kinase domain. The lack of autophosphorylation sites distinguishes CSK from other tyrosine kinases. CSK is unique and does not belong to a gene family, suggesting that it may phosphorylate other members of the Src family of tyrosine kinases in addition to c-Src. Since complex formation between c-Src and CSK seemed a likely regulatory step in the control of c-Src kinase activity, such an association was investigated by immunoprecipitation and Western blotting as well as intracellular localization studies. Although some portions of CSK were found in a membrane fraction, no complex formation between CSK and c-Src was observed, suggesting that the src homology 2 domain of CSK does not play a role in the direct interaction of c-Src.

Abstract
Ras GTPase-activating protein (GAP) is a cytoplasmic factor that regulates the GTPase activity of p21ras. Phosphorylation of GAP on tyrosine has recently been reported by several groups and may be an important step in linking signaling pathways involving p21ras and protein-tyrosine kinases. p56lck, a src-like protein-tyrosine kinase, seems to play a crucial role in T-cell development and T-cell activation. However, the molecular mechanisms of T-cell signaling involving p56lck and the substrates of p56lck have not yet been identified. To test whether GAP is a substrate of p56lck, in vitro kinase reactions were performed with purified, recombinant GAP and p56lck. We found that GAP became specifically phosphorylated on tyrosine within one tryptic peptide. Furthermore, coimmunoprecipitation studies provided evidence that the tyrosine-phosphorylated form of GAP is bound to p56lck. These results suggest that in T cells the function of GAP might be regulated through its phosphorylation on tyrosine and binding to the protein-tyrosine kinase p56lck.

Abstract
The Src homology 2 (SH2) domain is a noncatalytic region which is conserved among a number of signaling and transforming proteins, including cytoplasmic protein-tyrosine kinases and Ras GTPase-activating protein (GAP). Genetic and biochemical data indicate that the SH2 domain of the p60v-src (v-Src) protein-tyrosine kinase is required for full v-src transforming activity and may direct the association of v-Src with specific tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins. To test the ability of the v-Src SH2 domain to mediate protein-protein interactions, v-Src polypeptides were expressed as fusion proteins in Escherichia coli. The bacterial v-Src SH2 domain bound a series of tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins in a lysate of v-src-transformed Rat-2 cells, including prominent species of 130 and 62 kDa (p130 and p62). The p130 and p62 tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins that complexed v-Src SH2 in vitro also associated with v-Src in v-src-transformed Rat-2 cells; this in vivo binding was dependent on the v-Src SH2 domain. In addition to binding soluble p62 and p130, the SH2 domains of v-Src, GAP, and v-Crk directly recognized these phosphotyrosine-containing proteins which had been previously denatured and immobilized on a filter. In addition, the SH2 domains of GAP and v-Crk bound to the GAP-associated protein p190 immobilized on a nitrocellulose membrane. These results show that SH2 domains bind directly to tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins and that the Src SH2 domain can bind phosphorylated targets of the v-Src kinase domain.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
