Abstract
The 180,000 molecular weight protein from [32P]phosphorylated wheat germ agglutinin-purified rat liver plasma membranes was digested with trypsin. NIH 3T3 HIR 3.5 cells were [32P]phosphate-labelled in the presence of 10(-7) M insulin, and the 185,000 molecular weight cytoplasmic protein was digested with trypsin. Digests were applied to a C18-mu Bondapak column, eluted with acetonitrile gradients, and radioactivity in the eluate was monitored. The chromatogram for the cytoplasmic protein was similar but not identical to chromatograms of trypsin digests of insulin receptor substrates from other cultured cells. Thirteen and seven phosphopeptides were obtained from the plasma membrane and cytoplasmic substrate, respectively. One phosphopeptide from the two digests eluted at the same acetonitrile concentration; however, dissimilarity in elution profiles and dissimilarity in relative yields of individual phosphopeptides, suggest that the primary structures of tyrosine phosphorylation sites in the two insulin receptor substrates are different.

Abstract
The tyrosine kinase of the insulin receptor can be activated by trypsin treatment. The concomitant abolition of insulin binding has been postulated to result from proteolytic destruction of the receptor. A discrepancy between the decrease in insulin binding and receptor immunoreactivity after trypsin treatment led us to investigate more closely the structure of the trypsin-treated receptor. After trypsin treatment of the CHOT cell line, which over-expresses transfected human insulin receptors, insulin binding was significantly decreased, but reactivity with five alpha-subunit monoclonal antibodies was either unaffected or only moderately decreased, indicating that the alpha-subunit was substantially intact. Examination of receptor structure after trypsin treatment, receptor autophosphorylation and gel electrophoresis revealed a single band at 110 kDa in non-reduced gels, comprising a small fragment (21 kDa) of the alpha-subunit linked to the beta-subunit by class II disulphides. When the receptor was radio-labelled with 125I, two additional alpha-subunit bands of 142 kDa and 81 kDa (composed of identical reduced bands) were observed on non-reduced gels, which contained disulphide-linked (class I) fragments. All fragments could be precipitated by antibodies to both alpha- and beta-subunits. However, only antibodies directed towards the N-terminus of the receptor could immunoblot trypsin-treated fragments. Thus activation of the receptor tyrosine kinase by trypsin occurs after cleavage, but not loss of the alpha-subunit. This finding has implications for the mechanism of transmembrane activation of the receptor kinase by insulin.

Abstract
1. Insulin receptors were partially purified from rat liver by chromatography on wheat-germ-lectin-Sepharose. Incubation with [gamma-32P]ATP in the presence of insulin resulted in increased phosphorylation of the beta-subunit on both tyrosine and serine residues. Two-dimensional mapping of tryptic peptides showed that, in agreement with previous studies using preparations of receptors from other sources, the tyrosine residues involved were the three tyrosines in the kinase domain (corresponding to tyrosines 1158, 1162 and 1163 of the human receptor) plus two tyrosines close to the C-terminus (corresponding to tyrosines 1328 and 1334). 2. The effects of insulin on the phosphorylation of receptors within intact rat liver cells were determined by incubating cells in the presence of [32P]Pi for 50 min and then with or without insulin for a further 10 min. The labelled receptors were then rapidly isolated by sequential use of wheat-germ-lectin-Sepharose chromatography and immuno-isolation using a monoclonal antibody to the C-terminal end of the beta-subunit. 3. Insulin was found to increase overall phosphorylation of the receptor nearly 3-fold. Two-dimensional mapping was then carried out in combination with phosphoamino acid analysis. This revealed that the pattern of phosphorylation of the receptors in cells incubated in the absence and presence of insulin exhibited a number of marked differences from that observed in previous studies on intact cells, which had been restricted to cells expressing very high levels of insulin receptors such as certain hepatoma-derived cells or cells transfected with insulin receptor cDNA. The differences in the effects of insulin included a larger increase in the proportion of receptors being phosphorylated on the three tyrosine residues of the kinase domain, no apparent phosphorylation of the two tyrosine residues close to the C-terminus and no increase in either threonine or overall serine phosphorylation. 4. The receptors appeared to be phosphorylated on a number of different serine residues in cells incubated in the absence of insulin. Evidence for both increases and decreases in the phosphorylation of specific serine residues on addition of insulin was obtained. 5. It is concluded that care should be taken when extrapolating findings on the phosphorylation of the insulin receptor within cultured cells to more physiological situations.

Abstract
An assay which permitted a comparison of insulin receptor tyrosine phosphorylation induced under in vivo and in situ conditions was developed. It was demonstrated that the level of tyrosine phosphorylation of the receptor induced by insulin under in situ conditions exceeded by 2.3-fold the level of tyrosine phosphorylation induced under in vitro conditions. In addition, chronically treated, down-regulated cells demonstrated a significant decrease in the level of insulin receptor tyrosine phosphorylation compared to cells acutely treated with insulin. The procedure utilized an antibody specific for the insulin receptor which allowed separation of the receptor from other cellular proteins which are potential substrates for tyrosine phosphorylation. A second iodinated antibody specifically directed against phosphotyrosine residues allowed quantitation of the phosphorylated residues. Since the use of 32P-labeled substrates for phosphorylation was not required, this procedure allowed a comparison of protein phosphorylation induced under in vitro and in situ conditions. This procedure should permit investigations into the roles of other cellular factors, such as phosphatases and serine kinases, in modulating protein tyrosine phosphorylation.

Abstract
We have shown previously that experimental modifications of the cellular lipid composition of an insulin-sensitive rat hepatoma cell line (Zajdela Hepatoma Culture, ZHC) affect both binding and biological actions of insulin. Discrepancies between insulin binding and actions implied a postbinding defect, responsible for the observed insulin resistance in lipid-treated cells. To elucidate the mechanism for this defect, we have studied insulin binding and insulin receptor kinase activity in partially purified receptor preparations from ZHC cells grown either in normal medium or in medium supplemented with linoleic acid or 25-hydroxycholesterol. Insulin binding to the lectin-purified insulin receptor showed only a small alteration in receptor affinity for the preparations from lipid-treated cells. Insulin-stimulated autophosphorylation of the beta-subunit of the insulin receptor, as well as insulin-induced phosphorylation of the artificial substrate poly(Glu,Tyr)4:1, was significantly decreased in the preparations from lipid-modified cells. Although differences in basal levels were observed, the magnitude of the insulin-stimulated kinase activity was significantly decreased in receptor preparations from lipid-treated cells. These findings indicate that experimental modification of the lipids of cultured hepatoma cells can produce in insulin receptor kinase activity changes that are proportional to the reduced insulin action observed in these cells.

Abstract
Insulin receptor mutation studies indicate that the receptor tyrosine kinase activity is necessary for receptor endocytosis, and several insulin receptor-containing tissues have a plasma membrane-associated protein (Mr congruent to 180,000, p180) whose tyrosine phosphorylation is receptor catalysed. Since clathrin heavy chain (Mr congruent to 180,000 in dodecyl sulphate gel electrophoresis) is a major component of coated vesicles, the latter functioning in receptor endocytosis, we investigated whether insulin receptors can catalyse clathrin phosphorylation and whether p180 is clathrin. Bovine brain triskelion or coated vesicles and 32P-ATP were added to prephosphorylated insulin receptor preparations (wheat germ agglutinin-purified human placenta membrane proteins). Antiphosphotyrosine immunoprecipitated a phosphorylated 180,000 molecular weight protein. Insulin (10(-7) M) increased the rate of phosphorylation. Monoclonal anti-clathrin antibody immunoprecipitated the phosphorylated 180,000 molecular weight protein, whereas monoclonal anti-insulin receptor antibodies (alpha-IR1, MA10) immunoprecipitated both insulin receptors and the phosphorylated 180,000 molecular weight protein. In the absence of added clathrin, anticlathrin immunoprecipitated no proteins, and alpha-IR1 immunoprecipitated only the insulin receptor. Density gradient (glycerol 7.5-30%, w/v) centrifugation separated human placenta microsomal membrane proteins into endosomal, plasma membrane, cytoplasmic and coated vesicle fractions. Antiphosphotyrosine immunoprecipitated phosphorylated-microsomal proteins that centrifugated into endosomal and plasma membrane fractions. Addition of glycerol gradient fractions to a prephosphorylated insulin receptor preparation, however, gave a tyrosine-phosphorylated 180,000 molecular weight protein when cytoplasmic and coated vesicle fractions were added. Taken together these results suggest: (1) that, in vitro, human placenta insulin receptors can phosphorylate bovine brain and human placenta clathrin heavy chain; (2) that both assembled and unassembled clathrin can be phosphorylated; and (3) that p180, the plasma membrane-associated insulin receptor substrate, is not clathrin heavy chain.

Abstract
The mammary gland is a tissue that is extremely sensitive to insulin during lactation; during weaning, the effect of insulin is rapidly abolished. The purpose of this study was to characterize the mammary gland insulin receptors and their kinase activity in lactating and weaned mammary gland. The apparent molecular weight of the alpha-subunit was slightly lower in the mammary gland than in liver and white adipose tissue (127,000 vs. 134,000), but the apparent molecular weight of the beta-subunit was similar in the three tissues (95,000). Insulin induced a 10-fold increase in beta-subunit autophosphorylation, and the half-maximal effect was achieved at 2 nM insulin. After 24 h of weaning, the number of insulin receptors was decreased by 30%, but the kinase activity of the beta-subunit was unchanged. During the euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp, insulin entirely activated pyruvate dehydrogenase in lactating rat mammary gland, whereas after 24 h of weaning it was unable to increase the proportion of the enzyme in the active form. These results suggest that the site of alteration in the action of insulin on the mammary gland during weaning is distal to the receptor.

Abstract
The effects of cationic polyamino acids on phosphorylation of the insulin and insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor kinases were studied and the following observations were made. (a) Polylysine stimulated both tyrosine and serine phosphorylation of the insulin receptor and of additional proteins present in lectin-purified membrane preparations from rat liver. (b) Polylysine synergized with insulin to enhance phosphorylation of the insulin receptor and of additional proteins (pp40 and pp110). (c) Polylysine effects were more pronounced upon increasing the polylysine chain length. (d) The effect of polylysine was biphasic with an optimum at 100 micrograms/ml. (e) Polylysine was found ineffective in stimulating the phosphorylation of immobilized insulin receptors. Taken together, these findings support the notion that the action of polylysine involves conformational changes and presumably aggregation of soluble receptors. The same effects of polylysine were obtained with highly purified insulin receptor preparations. Under these conditions polylysine enhanced both serine and tyrosine phosphorylation of the insulin receptor, suggesting that polylysine stimulates the activity of the insulin receptor kinase, and of a serine kinase that is tightly associated with the insulin receptor.

Abstract
The ability of insulin to promote the phosphorylation of some proteins and the dephosphorylation of others is paradoxical. An insulin-stimulated protein kinase is shown to activate the type-1 protein phosphatase that controls glycogen metabolism, by phosphorylating its regulatory subunit at a specific serine. Furthermore, the phosphorylation of this residue is stimulated by insulin in vivo. Increased and decreased phosphorylation of proteins by insulin can therefore be explained through the same basic underlying mechanism.

Abstract
Our laboratory has previously shown that insulin inhibits the secretion of newly-synthesized and immunoreactive apo B from rat hepatocytes. We have also shown that apo B is secreted as a phosphoprotein and that phosphorylation is increased in hypoinsulinemic nonketotic diabetes. The present studies were conducted to determine whether the ability of insulin to inhibit apo B secretion is related to alterations in apo B turnover and whether insulin itself affects apo B phosphorylation. Pulse-chase studies with [35S]methionine in primary cultures of hepatocytes from normal rats in the absence and presence of insulin show that the secretion of apo B100 and apo B48 are inhibited by insulin and that this inhibition may be due in part to enhanced intracellular degradation. In addition, there is a second intracellular apo B48 pool which is not insulin regulated or degraded. In experiments in which hepatocytes were incubated with [32P]orthophosphate, insulin decreased 32P incorporation into apo B100 (42%) with only small effects on apo B48 (11%). The small insulin effect on apo B48 may relate to an insulin-insensitive apo B48 intracellular pool. These studies show that insulin can affect the intracellular turnover, secretion, degradation, and phosphorylation of apo B and emphasize the differential regulation of apo B100 and apo B48 with regard to these parameters in rat liver.

Abstract
Differentiation of the human promyelocytic leukemia cell line HL-60 into monocytes or macrophages is associated with increased expression of cell surface insulin receptors, while differentiation of these cells into granulocytes is associated with receptor loss. Here we demonstrate that differentiation of HL-60 cells into monocytes or granulocytes induced by 1;25(OH)2vitD3 or Bt2cAMP, respectively, has no major effect on the specific activity of the insulin receptor kinase (IRK). By contrast, when HL-60 cells are incubated with a combination of 1;25(OH)2vitD3 and Bt2cAMP, their differentiation into adherent macrophages-like cells is accompanied by a 50% reduction in the specific activity of IRK. These findings suggest that acquisition or loss of insulin receptors during differentiation of HL-60 involves selective alterations in the functional aspects of these receptors. Our results also implicate the generation of specific regulatory signals that inhibit IRK activity when HL-60 cells are stimulated with a combination of 1;25(OH)2vitD3 and Bt2cAMP.

Abstract
We have demonstrated the formation of hybrid insulin/insulin-like growth factor-I(IGF-I) receptors in transfected rodent fibroblasts, which overexpress human receptors, by examining reactivity with species- and receptor-specific monoclonal antibodies. In NIH 3T3 and Rat 1 fibroblasts, endogenous IGF-I receptors were unreactive with anti-(human insulin receptor)monoclonal antibodies (47-9, 25-49, 83-14, 83-7, 18-44). However, in transfected cells expressing high levels of insulin receptors, 60-80% of high-affinity IGF-I receptors reacted with these antibodies, as assessed either by inhibition of ligand binding in intact cells or by precipitation of solubilized receptors. Conversely, endogenous insulin receptors in NIH 3T3 cells were unreactive with anti-(IGF-I receptor) antibodies alpha IR-3 and 16-13. However, approx. 50% of high-affinity insulin receptors reacted with these antibodies in cells expressing high levels of human IGF-I receptors. The hybrid receptors in transfected cells bound insulin or IGF-I with high affinity. However, responses to these ligands were asymmetrical, in that binding of IGF-I inhibited subsequent binding of insulin, but prior binding of insulin did not affect the affinity for IGF-I. The existence of hybrid receptors in normal tissues could have important implications for metabolic regulation by insulin and IGF-I.

Abstract
The effects of insulin and anti-(insulin receptor) monoclonal antibodies on tyrosine phosphorylation were investigated in fibroblasts transfected with human insulin receptor cDNA (NIH 3T3HIR3.5 cells) using anti-phosphotyrosine immunoblotting. Insulin increased levels of tyrosine phosphorylation in two major proteins of molecular mass 97 kDa (pp97, assumed to be the insulin receptor beta-subunit) and 185 kDa (pp185). Insulin-mimetic anti-receptor antibodies also stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of both pp97 and pp185. The observation of antibody-stimulated pp97 phosphorylation, as detected by immunoblotting, is in contrast with previous data which failed to show receptor autophosphorylation in NIH 3T3HIR3.5 cells labelled with [32P]P1. The effect of insulin on pp97 was maximal within 1 min, but the response to antibody was apparent only after a lag of 1-2 min and rose steadily over 20 min. The absolute level of antibody-stimulated phosphorylation of both pp97 and pp185 after 20 min was only about 20% of the maximum level induced by equivalent concentrations of insulin, even at concentrations of antibody sufficient for full occupancy of receptors. Another insulin-mimetic agent, wheat-germ agglutinin, stimulated receptor autophosphorylation with kinetics similar to those produced by the antibody. It is suggested that the relatively slow responses to both agents may be a function of the dependence on receptor cross-linking. These data are consistent with a role for the insulin receptor tyrosine kinase activity in the mechanism of action of insulin-mimetic anti-receptor antibodies.

Abstract
Noninsulin-dependent diabetes is associated with a decrease in the activity of sarcolemmal phosphatase 1, but no change in the activities of phosphatase 2A, 2B, or 2C. Also unaffected by diabetes were the activities of protein kinase C, cAMP-dependent protein kinase and calcium-calmodulin protein kinase. Because of the decrease in phosphatase 1 activity, 32P incorporation into sarcolemmal phosphoproteins catalyzed by either intrinsic protein kinases or extrinsic cAMP-dependent protein kinase was elevated in the diabetic. Among the proteins whose phosphorylation was elevated in diabetes was the phospholamban-like protein, which has been implicated in the regulation of ATP-dependent calcium transport. The phosphate-linked increase could be prevented by exposing the membranes to a phosphatase inhibitor and either extrinsic cAMP-dependent protein kinase or alamethicin. In addition to the phosphatase-linked effects, analysis of individual sarcolemmal phosphoproteins by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis indicated that diabetes caused a specific elevation in membrane phosphorylation of some proteins (43 kDa and 78 kDa), but a decrease in the phosphorylation state of other phosphoproteins (31 kDa and 49 kDa). The data indicate that membrane phosphorylation is dramatically altered by diabetes. The possibility that this contributes to altered myocardial function is discussed.

Abstract
Insulin has both short- and long-term effects on cellular metabolism. The short-term effects are known to involve the insulin receptor, a protein kinase capable of phosphorylating itself and other proteins. The role of the receptor was elucidated by studies of a mutant insulin receptor which lacked kinase activity and inhibited several actions of insulin. The long-term effects of insulin could be demonstrated by its growth-promoting effect on hepatoma cells, and by the suppression in transfected hepatoma cells of hepatitis B virus antigen production in a dose-dependent manner. The process whereby insulin appears to regulate gene expression is not clearly understood.

Abstract
Cell signalling for insulin may include insulin receptor tyrosine kinase catalysing the phosphorylation of one or more cell proteins. Since temporally the insulin receptor will encounter plasma membrane proteins first, we have studied the in vitro phosphorylation of purified plasma membrane preparations. Two proteins were immunoprecipitated with anti-phosphotyrosine antibody from rat liver, muscle, heart and brain membranes and from human placenta membranes: the insulin receptor (detected as a phosphorylated-beta-subunit) and a 180,000 molecular weight protein (pp180). pp180 is a monomeric glycoprotein that in the absence of dithiothreitol migrated in denaturing gels like a 150,000 molecular weight protein. pp180 was a substrate for the insulin receptor: (i) receptor and pp180 phosphorylation followed a similar insulin dose-response, although fold-stimulation of autophosphorylation was greater; and (ii) removal of insulin receptors with monoclonal antibodies prevented subsequent pp180 phosphorylation. Insulin-activated receptors increased the extent, but not the rate, of pp180 phosphorylation; the increased phosphate was incorporated into tyrosine and appeared to do so in three or four of pp180's 12 tryptic phosphopeptides. Some data suggest that pp180 is the same protein in each of the tested tissues. The occurrence of pp180, an insulin receptor substrate, in plasma membranes of several insulin responsive tissues suggests that it has a role in insulin signalling.
