Abstract
Ca2+/phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase C) and trypsin-activated protein kinase C (protein kinase M) phosphorylated the synthetic peptide R1-A13 (Arg-Arg-Leu-Ser-Ser-Leu-Arg-Ala-Ser-Thr-Ser-Lys-Ala) which contains both cAMP- and insulin-regulated phosphorylation sites in rat liver ribosomal protein S6 [Wettenhall, R. E. H. & Morgan, F. J. (1984) J. Biol. Chem. 259, 2084-2091]. Both enzymes showed essentially the same kinetic properties; V and apparent Km were determined to be 0.16 mumol min-1 mg-1 and 30 microM, respectively. At first, tryptic phosphopeptides were prepared at the early stage of phosphorylation and purified by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Through these analyses, four radioactive peptides were isolated. When protein kinase C was employed, phosphorylation was observed on all four peptides in a Ca2+/phospholipid-dependent manner. Irrespective of the protein kinase employed, phosphate incorporation into these peptides increased linearly with time; the peptide concentration did not affect the ratio of phosphate distribution into these four peptides. Analysis of amino acid composition and phosphoamino acid of radioactive peptides obtained after extensive phosphorylation showed that phosphates were incorporated into Ser-4, Ser-5, Ser-9 and Ser-11. The latter three serine residues were major phosphorylated sites. When rat liver 40-S ribosomal subunits were employed as substrate for protein kinases C and M, a radioactive protein with Mr,app = 31,000, which corresponded to S6 protein, was detected on an autoradiogram of a sodium dodecyl sulfate/polyacrylamide slab gel. The rate of phosphorylation with protein kinase M was twice as fast as that with protein kinase C. The elution profile of radioactive tryptic peptides in HPLC suggest that phosphorylation occurred on the sites in S6 protein corresponding to Ser-5, Ser-9 and Ser-11 as major sites and Ser-4 as the minor one. These results indicate that protein kinase C has an ability to recognize at least four sites derived from hormone-dependent phosphorylation sites in ribosomal protein S6 irrespective of the mode of activation of this enzyme.

Abstract
Phospholipid-dependent, Ca++-sensitive protein kinase (protein kinase C) is activated by phorbol esters and diacylglycerols. A series of diacylglycerols was synthesized with different substituents at positions 1 and 2 in order to expand known structure-activity relationships for these compounds with respect to binding and activating purified protein kinase C. Compounds were synthesized with saturated and unsaturated long chain fatty acyl groups at position 1 and acetyl, butyryl, or hexanoyl groups at position 2. Binding to protein kinase C correlated well with in-vitro activation of the enzyme. These diacylglycerols activated protein kinase C in an intact cellular system causing the phosphorylation of pp60c-src. This indicates that the length of the fatty acyl group at C2 is critical and that the existence of unsaturation in the fatty acyl group at C1 is not essential.

Abstract
Transformation of chicken cells by Rous sarcoma virus (RSV) requires the functional expression of the viral src protein, a tyrosine protein kinase, pp60src. Variants of RSV containing deletions within the amino terminal one-third of the src protein have been identified that exhibit either temperature-sensitive or transformation-defective phenotype when used to infect chicken embryo cells. To define the regions within the amino terminal portion of pp60src that influence morphological transformation, a series of overlapping deletion mutations in the src gene of Prague A RSV (Pr A RSV) were constructed and their biological and biochemical properties were analyzed. Deletions within the src gene which remove amino acid residues 38 to 142 had minimal effects on the ability of the mutant viruses to induce cellular transformation. However, deletions, which impinged upon the region of the src gene encoding residues 142 to 169, inhibited cellular transformation. A variant containing a deletion of amino acid residues 169 to 225, was temperature sensitive for transformation. Structurally altered src proteins recovered from cells infected with transformation-defective variants exhibited a somewhat reduced tyrosine protein kinase activities when assayed in the immune complex kinase assay. Analysis of the in vivo phosphorylation of a pp60src substrate, the 36-kDa protein, revealed virtually wild-type levels of phosphorylation in cells infected with the transformation-defective mutants. These studies suggest that the region of the Pr A RSV src protein delineated by amino acid residues 142 to 169 is essential for initiation and maintenance of morphological transformation of chicken cells in culture.

Abstract
The nature of protein phosphatases of the guinea-pig parotid gland was investigated. The protein phosphatases were characterized by (a) the use of five different 32P-labelled substrate proteins (phosphorylase a, histone H2B, casein, and the alpha and beta subunits of phosphorylase kinase), (b) their behaviour during ion-exchange chromatography, (c) their relative molecular mass distribution during gel filtration, (d) their sensitivity towards inhibition by inhibitor 2, (e) their ability to be stimulated by protamine and (f) by their behaviour during freezing and thawing in the presence of 2-mercaptoethanol. The following results were obtained. 1. The 'cytosol' (100,000 X g supernatant) contains protein phosphatases of the types 1, 2A and 2B. 2. On the basis of inhibition with inhibitor 2 (1.2 micrograms/ml) the 'cytosolic' phosphorylase phosphatase activity consists to about 40% of protein phosphatase 1 and to about 60% of protein phosphatase 2A. 3. In the cytosol about 80-90% of the protein phosphatases 1 and 2A exist in an inactive state. 4. A 5-10-fold activation can be achieved by ethanol precipitation, which results in the generation of a mixture of forms of low apparent molecular mass of about 30 kDa. 5. Microsome-associated phosphorylase phosphatase activities can be extracted in a highly active state by detergent (1% Triton X-100) or by 0.8 M NaCl. 6. Activity measurements in the presence of inhibitor 2 (1.2 micrograms/ml) indicate that the microsomal activities consist to about 75% of protein phosphatase 1 and to about 25% of protein phosphatase 2A. Activities corresponding to protein phosphatases 2B and 2C could not be detected. 7. The 'microsomal' protein phosphatase activities exhibit lower apparent molecular masses (70 kDa and 30 kDa) than the 'cytosolic' protein phosphatases (about 260 kDa). 8. After ethanol treatment of the microsomal protein phosphatases only activities with apparent molecular masses of about 30 kDa can be detected. These share several similarities with the ethanol-treated cytosolic protein phosphatases. 9. Both cytosolic and microsomal protein phosphatases display activity towards histone H2B and casein.

Abstract
Changes in glycolytic flux have been observed in liver under conditions where effects of cAMP seem unlikely. We have, therefore, studied the phosphorylation of four enzymes involved in the regulation of glycolysis and gluconeogenesis (6-phosphofructo-1-kinase from rat liver and rabbit muscle; pyruvate kinase, 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase and fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase from rat liver) by defined concentrations of two cAMP-independent protein kinases: Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase and Ca2+/phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase C). The results were compared with those obtained with the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase. The following results were obtained. 1. Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase phosphorylates 6-phosphofructo-1-kinase and L-type pyruvate kinase at a slightly lower rate as compared to cAMP-dependent protein kinase. 2. 6-Phosphofructo-1-kinase is phosphorylated by the two kinases at a single identical position. There is no additive phosphorylation. The final stoichiometry is 2 mol phosphate/mol tetramer. The same holds for L-type pyruvate kinase except that the stoichiometry with either kinase or both kinases together is 4 mol phosphate/mol tetramer. 3. Rabbit muscle 6-phosphofructo-1-kinase is phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase but not by Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase. 4. Fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase from rat but not from rabbit liver is phosphorylated at the same position but at a markedly lower rate by Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase when compared to the phosphorylation by cAMP-dependent protein kinase. 5. 6-Phosphofructo-2-kinase is phosphorylated by Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase only at a negligible rate. 6. Protein kinase C does not seem to be involved in the regulation of the enzymes examined: only 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase became phosphorylated to a significant degree. In contrast to the phosphorylation by cAMP-dependent protein kinase, this phosphorylation is not associated with a change of enzyme activity. This agrees with our observation that the sites of phosphorylation by the two kinases are different. The results indicate that Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase but not protein kinase C could be involved in the regulation of hepatic glycolytic flux under conditions where changes in the activity of cAMP-dependent protein kinase seem unlikely.

Abstract
Avian erythroblastosis virus (AEV) is a replication-defective retrovirus that causes erythroblastosis and sarcomas in chickens and transforms immature erythroid cells and fibroblasts in culture. AEV encodes two oncogenes, v-erbA and v-erbB, whose products are closely related to the thyroxine receptor and the epidermal growth factor receptor, respectively. Since tyrosine protein kinases have been implicated in the process of normal growth signal transduction, we wished to study the possible consequences of the expression of these mutated, growth-regulating receptor genes on the activity of the cellular tyrosine kinase pp60c-src. A continuous cell line from AEV-infected quail embryo fibroblasts was derived that exhibited a typical transformed phenotype and expressed the viral oncogene products, p75gag-erbA and gp66-68erbB. Using an immune-complex kinase assay, we found that the specific activity of pp60c-src in AEV-transformed quail cells was decreased by a factor of 6-30 relative to that found in uninfected quail cells. A concomitant 50-80% reduction of 32Pi incorporation into the pp60c-src protein from radiolabeled, transformed cells was also observed, indicating a relationship between hypophosphorylation and diminished enzyme activity. Partial proteolytic phosphopeptide analysis revealed a decrease in phosphorylation of both serine- and tyrosine-containing peptides, suggesting an activation of specific phosphatases or inhibition of specific kinases in the AEV-transformed quail cells. Similar results were found in pp60c-src precipitated from AEV-transformed chicken and rat cells.

Abstract
Cultured neurons from rat embryo striatum were found to contain two structurally distinct forms of pp60c-src. The 60-kilodalton (kDa) form appeared similar to pp60c-src from cultured rat fibroblasts or astrocytes. The 61-kDa form was specific to neurons and differed in the NH2-terminal 18 kDa of the molecule. In undifferentiated neurons the predominant phosphorylated species of pp60c-src was the fibroblast form. Upon differentiation, a second phosphorylated form of pp60c-src was detected. This form had two or more additional sites of serine phosphorylation within the NH2-terminal 18-kDa region of the molecule, one of which was Ser-12. The specific protein-tyrosine kinase activity of the total pp60c-src population increased 14-fold, as measured by autophosphorylation, or 7-fold, as measured by phosphorylation of an exogenous substrate, as striatal neurons differentiated. This elevation in protein kinase activity occurred without a detectable decrease in Tyr-527 phosphorylation or increase in Tyr-416 phosphorylation. Our results support the idea that the expression of the neuron-specific form of pp60c-src and the increase in specific protein kinase activity may be important for neuronal differentiation.

Sequence analysis of the src type of protein kinases revealed that the amino-terminal region encoded by exon 2 contains sequences specific for the src proteins and raised the possibility that this region is involved in the recognition of a src-specific substrate(s) or receptor(s).

Abstract
We have compared the tyrosine kinase activity of pp60c-src isolated from intact chicken embryo fibroblasts treated with micromolar sodium orthovanadate for 4 h and from untreated cells. We found an approximate 50% reduction in both autophosphorylation of pp60c-src and phosphorylation of casein when examined in the immune complex kinase assay. The reduction of in vitro enzymatic activity correlated with a vanadate-induced increase in in vivo phosphorylation of pp60c-src at the major site of tyrosine phosphorylation in the carboxyl-terminal half of the molecule and at serine in the amino-terminal half of the molecule. Our observations in vivo and those of Courtneidge in vitro (EMBO J. 4:1471-1477, 1985) suggest that vanadate may enhance a cellular regulatory mechanism that inhibits the activity of pp60c-src in normal cells. A likely candidate for this mechanism is phosphorylation at a tyrosine residue distinct from tyrosine 416, probably tyrosine 527 in the carboxyl-terminal sequence of amino acids unique to pp60c-src. The regulatory role, if any, of serine phosphorylation in pp60c-src remains unclear. The 36-kilodalton phosphoprotein, a substrate of pp60v-src, showed a significant phosphorylation at tyrosine after treatment of normal chicken embryo fibroblasts with vanadate. Assuming that pp60c-src is inhibited intracellularly by vanadate, either another tyrosine kinase is stimulated by vanadate (e.g., a growth factor receptor) or the 36-kilodalton phosphoprotein in normal cells is no longer rapidly dephosphorylated by a tyrosine phosphatase in the presence of vanadate.

Abstract
Three c-yes cDNA clones were obtained from poly(A)+ RNA of human embryo fibroblasts. Sequence analysis of the clones showed that they contained inserts corresponding to nearly full-length human c-yes mRNA, which could encode a polypeptide of 543 amino acids with a relative molecular weight (Mr) of 60,801. The predicted amino acid sequence of the protein has no apparent membrane-spanning region or suspected ligand binding domain and closely resembles pp60c-src. Comparison of the sequences of c-yes and v-yes revealed that the v-yes gene contains most of the c-yes coding sequence except the region encoding its extreme carboxyl terminus. The region missing from the v-yes protein is the part that is highly conserved in cellular gene products of the protein-tyrosine kinase family.

Abstract
Our recently described purification scheme for rat brain protein kinase C yields an enzyme consisting of a 78/80-kilodalton (kDa) doublet upon sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (submitted for publication). Antisera against this preparation were raised in two rabbits. One of the antisera detected only the 80-kDa component by immunoblotting of purified protein kinase C and immunoprecipitated an 80-kDa [35S]methionine-labeled protein from a variety of human, rodent, and bovine cells, which was shown to represent protein kinase C by comparative one-dimensional peptide mapping. In contrast, the second antiserum detected both 78- and 80-kDa enzyme forms by immunoblotting and immunoprecipitated a [35S]methionine-labeled 78/80-kDa doublet from mammalian cells. One-dimensional peptide maps of these 78- and 80-kDa proteins were similar to those derived from the 78- and 80-kDa forms of purified protein kinase C, respectively. The two forms were not related by either partial proteolysis or differential phosphorylation, showing that two distinct forms of this enzyme exist in mammalian cells. Treatment of mouse B82 L cells with 2.5 micrograms of 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) per ml for 18 h resulted in complete loss of immunoprecipitable protein kinase C with a half time of disappearance of 48 min. Since the normal half-life of protein kinase C was greater than 24 h and the biosynthetic rate of the protein was not decreased after 18 h by TPA treatment, TPA induces down-regulation by increasing the degradation rate of the enzyme. Treatment of cells with 50 ng of TPA per ml followed by resolution of the membrane and cytosol in the presence of ethylene glycol-bis(beta-aminoethyl ether)N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid (EGTA) promoted an apparent translocation of both 78- and 80-kDa proteins from the cytosol to the membrane fraction. A similar translocation was effected by cell lysis in the presence of Ca2+, indicating the subcellular localization of protein kinase C to be sensitive to the presence of both activators and micromolar amounts of Ca2+.

Abstract
Stimulation of T cells or the Jurkat T-cell line with soluble antibodies to the CD3/T-cell receptor complex causes mobilization of cytoplasmic Ca2+, which is blocked by pertussis toxin but not by ethylene glycol-bis(beta-aminoethyl ether)-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid, and translocation of protein kinase C activity from the cytoplasm to the membrane. Such stimulation also causes phosphorylation of pp60c-src at an amino-terminal serine residue. These activities are consistent with induction of phosphatidylinositol metabolism after antibody binding. Anti-CD3 stimulation with antibody in solution, however, does not cause Jurkat cells to release interleukin 2 and blocks rather than induces proliferation of T cells. Induction of interleukin 2 production by Jurkat cells and proliferation by normal T cells requires anti-CD3 stimulation with antibody on a solid support, such as Sepharose beads or a plastic dish. Thus, we examined phosphorylation of pp60c-src after stimulation of Jurkat cells with anti-CD3 in solution or on solid phase. Both of these caused serine phosphorylation of pp60c-src that was indistinguishable even after 4 h of stimulation. These results indicate that the mode of anti-CD3 stimulation (in solution or on solid phase) controls a cellular function that modifies the consequences of signal transduction through phosphatidylinositol turnover.

Abstract
We introduced two mutations into the carboxy-terminal regulatory region of chicken pp60c-src. One, F527, replaces tyrosine 527 with phenylalanine. The other, Am517, produces a truncated pp60c-src protein lacking the 17 carboxy-terminal amino acids. Both mutant proteins were phosphorylated at tyrosine 416 in vivo. The specific activity of the Am517 mutant protein kinase was similar to that of wild-type pp60c-src whereas that of the F527 mutant was 5- to 10-fold higher. Both mutant c-src genes induced focus formation on NIH 3T3 cells, but the foci appeared at lower frequency, and were smaller than foci induced by polyoma middle tumor antigen (mT). The wild-type or F527 pp60c-src formed a complex with mT, whereas the Am517 pp60c-src did not. The results suggest that one, inability to phosphorylate tyrosine 527 increases pp60c-src protein kinase activity and transforming ability; two, transformation by mT involves other events besides lack of phosphorylation at tyrosine 527 of pp60c-src; three, activation of the pp60c-src protein kinase may not be required for transformation by the Am517 mutant; and four, the carboxyl terminus of pp60c-src appears to be required for association with mT.

Abstract
We have compared the tyrosine kinase activity of pp60c-src isolated from intact chicken embryo fibroblasts treated with micromolar sodium orthovanadate for 4 h and from untreated cells. We found an approximate 50% reduction in both autophosphorylation of pp60c-src and phosphorylation of casein when examined in the immune complex kinase assay. The reduction of in vitro enzymatic activity correlated with a vanadate-induced increase in in vivo phosphorylation of pp60c-src at the major site of tyrosine phosphorylation in the carboxyl-terminal half of the molecule and at serine in the amino-terminal half of the molecule. Our observations in vivo and those of Courtneidge in vitro (EMBO J. 4:1471-1477, 1985) suggest that vanadate may enhance a cellular regulatory mechanism that inhibits the activity of pp60c-src in normal cells. A likely candidate for this mechanism is phosphorylation at a tyrosine residue distinct from tyrosine 416, probably tyrosine 527 in the carboxyl-terminal sequence of amino acids unique to pp60c-src. The regulatory role, if any, of serine phosphorylation in pp60c-src remains unclear. The 36-kilodalton phosphoprotein, a substrate of pp60v-src, showed a significant phosphorylation at tyrosine after treatment of normal chicken embryo fibroblasts with vanadate. Assuming that pp60c-src is inhibited intracellularly by vanadate, either another tyrosine kinase is stimulated by vanadate (e.g., a growth factor receptor) or the 36-kilodalton phosphoprotein in normal cells is no longer rapidly dephosphorylated by a tyrosine phosphatase in the presence of vanadate.

Abstract
Phosphorylation of pp60c-src at Tyr-527, six residues from the carboxy terminus, has been implicated in regulation of the protein-tyrosine kinase activity of pp60c-src. Here we show that dephosphorylation of pp60c-src by phosphatase treatment in vitro caused a 10- to 20-fold increase in pp60c-src protein-tyrosine kinase activity. Binding of specific antibody to the region of pp60c-src which contains phosphotyrosine-527 also increased kinase activity. Each treatment increased phosphorylation of added substrates and of Tyr-416 within pp60c-src by a similar mechanism that involved altered interactions with ATP and increased catalytic rate. We suggest that the phosphorylated carboxy terminus acts as an inhibitor of the protein kinase domain of pp60c-src, unless its conformation is altered by either dephosphorylation or antibody binding. The antibody additionally stimulated the phosphorylation of forms of pp60c-src that had reduced gel mobility, much like those phosphorylated in kinase reactions containing pp60c-src activated by polyomavirus medium tumor antigen. These in vitro experiments provide models for the activation of pp60c-src in cells transformed by polyomavirus. We also show that autophosphorylation of pp60c-src at Tyr-527 occurs only to a very limited extent in vitro, even when Tyr-527 is made available for phosphorylation by treatment with phosphatase. This suggests that other protein-tyrosine kinases may normally phosphorylate Tyr-527 and regulate pp60c-src in the cell.

Abstract
Stimulation of T cells or the Jurkat T-cell line with soluble antibodies to the CD3/T-cell receptor complex causes mobilization of cytoplasmic Ca2+, which is blocked by pertussis toxin but not by ethylene glycol-bis(beta-aminoethyl ether)-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid, and translocation of protein kinase C activity from the cytoplasm to the membrane. Such stimulation also causes phosphorylation of pp60c-src at an amino-terminal serine residue. These activities are consistent with induction of phosphatidylinositol metabolism after antibody binding. Anti-CD3 stimulation with antibody in solution, however, does not cause Jurkat cells to release interleukin 2 and blocks rather than induces proliferation of T cells. Induction of interleukin 2 production by Jurkat cells and proliferation by normal T cells requires anti-CD3 stimulation with antibody on a solid support, such as Sepharose beads or a plastic dish. Thus, we examined phosphorylation of pp60c-src after stimulation of Jurkat cells with anti-CD3 in solution or on solid phase. Both of these caused serine phosphorylation of pp60c-src that was indistinguishable even after 4 h of stimulation. These results indicate that the mode of anti-CD3 stimulation (in solution or on solid phase) controls a cellular function that modifies the consequences of signal transduction through phosphatidylinositol turnover.

Abstract
The c-fos proto-oncogene is rapidly and transiently induced by PDGF in fibroblast and by CSF-1 in macrophages. In both cells, the breakdown of phospholipids with the ensuing activation of protein kinase C (PKC) and intracellular release of Ca2+ seems to play a role in the induction of c-fos. The transient induction of c-fos mRNA and protein by PDGF is both increased and prolonged by inhibitors of calmodulin, apparently by inhibiting the degradation of c-fos mRNA. While no response to cyclic nucleotides is observed in fibroblasts, cAMP is a strong inducer of c-fos in macrophages. In contrast to the transient induction by PKC/Ca2+, cAMP induces stable transcription of the c-fos gene for many hours, suggesting the existence of different mechanisms regulating c-fos transcription in the same cell.

Abstract
p36, a major in vivo substrate of protein-tyrosine kinases, is shown to be phosphorylated at serine 25, a site very close to the major site of tyrosine phosphorylation by pp60v-src, tyrosine 23 (J. R. Glenney, Jr., and B. F. Tack, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 82:7884-7888, 1985). We present evidence suggesting that protein kinase C mediates phosphorylation of serine 25.

Abstract
Treatment of normal cells with the tumor promoters 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate and mezerein results in increased phosphorylation of pp60c-src. Two-dimensional tryptic phosphopeptide analysis of partial V8 protease fragments indicated that this phosphorylation takes place on a serine residue which lies within the amino-terminal 18 kilodaltons of pp60c-src and represents the major phosphorylation site following tumor promoter treatment. Untreated cells exhibited a low but detectable level of phosphorylation at this serine residue. The significance of these results with respect to the phosphoregulation of pp60c-src as well as tumor promotion is discussed.

Abstract
Three c-yes cDNA clones were obtained from poly(A)+ RNA of human embryo fibroblasts. Sequence analysis of the clones showed that they contained inserts corresponding to nearly full-length human c-yes mRNA, which could encode a polypeptide of 543 amino acids with a relative molecular weight (Mr) of 60,801. The predicted amino acid sequence of the protein has no apparent membrane-spanning region or suspected ligand binding domain and closely resembles pp60c-src. Comparison of the sequences of c-yes and v-yes revealed that the v-yes gene contains most of the c-yes coding sequence except the region encoding its extreme carboxyl terminus. The region missing from the v-yes protein is the part that is highly conserved in cellular gene products of the protein-tyrosine kinase family.

Abstract
Our recently described purification scheme for rat brain protein kinase C yields an enzyme consisting of a 78/80-kilodalton (kDa) doublet upon sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (submitted for publication). Antisera against this preparation were raised in two rabbits. One of the antisera detected only the 80-kDa component by immunoblotting of purified protein kinase C and immunoprecipitated an 80-kDa [35S]methionine-labeled protein from a variety of human, rodent, and bovine cells, which was shown to represent protein kinase C by comparative one-dimensional peptide mapping. In contrast, the second antiserum detected both 78- and 80-kDa enzyme forms by immunoblotting and immunoprecipitated a [35S]methionine-labeled 78/80-kDa doublet from mammalian cells. One-dimensional peptide maps of these 78- and 80-kDa proteins were similar to those derived from the 78- and 80-kDa forms of purified protein kinase C, respectively. The two forms were not related by either partial proteolysis or differential phosphorylation, showing that two distinct forms of this enzyme exist in mammalian cells. Treatment of mouse B82 L cells with 2.5 micrograms of 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) per ml for 18 h resulted in complete loss of immunoprecipitable protein kinase C with a half time of disappearance of 48 min. Since the normal half-life of protein kinase C was greater than 24 h and the biosynthetic rate of the protein was not decreased after 18 h by TPA treatment, TPA induces down-regulation by increasing the degradation rate of the enzyme. Treatment of cells with 50 ng of TPA per ml followed by resolution of the membrane and cytosol in the presence of ethylene glycol-bis(beta-aminoethyl ether)N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid (EGTA) promoted an apparent translocation of both 78- and 80-kDa proteins from the cytosol to the membrane fraction. A similar translocation was effected by cell lysis in the presence of Ca2+, indicating the subcellular localization of protein kinase C to be sensitive to the presence of both activators and micromolar amounts of Ca2+.

Abstract
P36 was originally defined as the major cytoplasmic target of retrovirally coded tyrosine-kinases. While recently much has been learned about its biochemistry, the functional importance of its tyrosine and serine phosphorylation has not been approached. As p36 is now understood as a multi-ligand protein its in vitro phosphorylation by three different serine/threonine kinases was followed. Monomeric p36 is a much better substrate than the complex containing two copies each of p36 and p11 (protein I). All p36 phosphorylation sites occur within the amino-terminal 29 residues specifically released by mild proteolysis. As this region harbors an important interaction site for p11 the reduced phosphorylation of p36 in the protein I complex results most likely from a lowered accessibility. Phosphorylation of p36 is serine specific. Reconstitution experiments define at least two functionally distinct sites. One product of protein kinase C reconstitutes with p11 to protein I, while this complex formation normal for p36 is observed neither for the second phosphorylation product nor for the derivatives resulting from phosphorylation by calmodulin or cAMP dependent kinases. The results lend direct support to the hypothesis that phosphorylation of p36 can modulate one of its molecular functions. Obvious implications for other Ca2+-dependent lipid binding proteins are discussed.

Abstract
Tac antigen, the receptor for human interleukin 2 (IL-2), contains in its intracytoplasmic region a serine residue (Ser-247) that is seemingly the predominant site of protein kinase C-mediated phosphorylation. A number of studies on growth factor receptors have suggested the importance of phosphorylation in receptor structure, function, and regulation. In this study, we generated site-directed mutations in the Tac antigen cDNA to generate mutant receptors in which Ser-247 or Thr-250, a probable site of minor phosphorylation, was replaced with another amino acid that is not accessible to phosphorylation. Study of the expression of these mutant genes in a T-lymphoid cell line has provided no evidence as to the essential role of the above-mentioned residues in determining the degree of receptor affinity, its ability for signal transduction, and phorbol ester-mediated regulation of the receptor. Our results strongly suggest the existence of an IL-2 receptor "complex" in which the Tac antigen is associated with another molecule(s) that is involved in receptor structure, function, and regulation.

Abstract
Although the Ca2+/phospholipid-dependent protein kinase, protein kinase C, has a broad substrate specificity in vitro, the enzyme appears considerably less promiscuous in vivo. To date only a handful of proteins have been identified as physiological substrates for this protein kinase. In order to determine the basis for this selectivity for substrates in intact cells, we have probed the substrate primary sequence requirements of protein kinase C using synthetic peptides corresponding to sites of phosphorylation from four of the known physiological substrates. We have also identified the acetylated N-terminal serine of chick muscle lactate dehydrogenase as an in vitro site of phosphorylation for this protein kinase. These comparative studies have demonstrated that, in vivo, the enzyme exhibits a preference for one basic residue C-terminal to the phosphorylatable residue, as in the sequence: Ser/Thr-Xaa-Lys/Arg, where Xaa is usually an uncharged residue. Additional basic residues, both N and C-terminal to the target amino acid, enhance the Vmax and Km parameters of phosphorylation. None of the peptides based on physiological phosphorylation sites of protein kinase C was an efficient substrate of cAMP-dependent protein kinase, emphasizing the distinct site-recognition selectivities of these two pleiotropic protein kinases. The favorable kinetic parameters of several of the synthetic peptides, coupled with their selectivity for phosphorylation by protein kinase C, will facilitate the assay of this enzyme in the presence of other protein kinases in tissue and cell extracts.

Abstract
The beta subunit of purified insulin receptor is phosphorylated on a serine residue by purified preparations of protein kinase C (ATP: protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37). This phosphorylation is inhibited by antibodies to protein kinase C and stimulated by phospholipids, diacylglycerol, and Ca2+. The phosphorylation of the receptor by protein kinase C does not affect its insulin-binding activity but does inhibit by 65% the receptor's intrinsic tyrosine-specific protein kinase activity (ATP: protein-tyrosine O-phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.112). These results indicate that activators of protein kinase C, such as phorbol esters, desensitize cells to insulin by direct protein kinase C action on the insulin receptor.

Abstract
An src/yes-related novel gene named syn (SYN in human gene nomenclature) has been identified in the human genome on chromosome 6 and characterized by molecular cloning. Nucleotide sequence analysis of cDNA clones showed that the c-syn gene could encode a protein-tyrosine kinase that is very similar in primary structure to the v-yes and human c-src proteins. A 2.8-kilobase transcript of the c-syn gene, which differs in size from those of the c-yes, c-src, and c-fgr genes, was observed in various cell types. These results show that syn is a new member of the tyrosine kinase oncogene family.

Abstract
Protein kinase C, an enzyme that is activated by the receptor-mediated hydrolysis of inositol phospholipids, relays information in the form of a variety of extracellular signals across the membrane to regulate many Ca2+-dependent processes. At an early phase of cellular responses, the enzyme appears to have a dual effect, providing positive forward as well as negative feedback controls over various steps of its own and other signaling pathways, such as the receptors that are coupled to inositol phospholipid hydrolysis and those of some growth factors. In biological systems, a positive signal is frequently followed by immediate negative feedback regulation. Such a novel role of this protein kinase system seems to give a logical basis for clarifying the biochemical mechanism of signal transduction, and to add a new dimension essential to our understanding of cell-to-cell communication.

Abstract
We provide direct evidence that serine 17 is the major site of serine phosphorylation in p60v-src, the transforming protein of Rous sarcoma virus, and in its cellular homolog, p60c-src. The amino acid composition of the tryptic peptide containing the major site of serine phosphorylation in p60v-src was deduced by peptide map analysis of the protein labeled biosynthetically with a variety of radioactive amino acids. Manual Edman degradation revealed that the phosphorylated serine in this peptide was the amino terminal residue. These data are consistent only with the phosphorylation of serine 17. The major site of serine phosphorylation in chicken p60c-src, the cellular homolog of p60v-src, is contained in a tryptic peptide identical to that containing serine 17 in p60v-src of Schmidt Ruppin Rous sarcoma virus of subgroup A. Serine 17 is therefore also phosphorylated in p60c-src. The p60v-src protein encoded by Prague Rous sarcoma virus was found to contain two sites of tyrosine phosphorylation. The previously unrecognized site of tyrosine phosphorylation may be tyrosine 205 or possibly tyrosine 208. Treatment of Prague Rous sarcoma virus-infected cells with vanadyl ions stimulated the protein kinase activity of p60v-src and increased the phosphorylation of tyrosine 416 but not the phosphorylation of the additional site of tyrosine phosphorylation.

Abstract
We have detected a significant increase in the levels of pp60c-src kinase activity associated with the differentiation of myeloid cell lines HL-60 and U-937. The induction of pp60c-src kinase activity becomes apparent approximately 14 hr after the addition of phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate and increases 20-fold by 72 hr. The enhanced kinase activity can be accounted for by elevated levels of c-src protein in the differentiated cells. When nonleukemic bone marrow cells were examined, myeloid progenitor cells exhibited a low level of pp60c-src kinase activity. As these cells are allowed to differentiate in culture, the resulting adherent monocytes are as high in pp60c-src kinase activity as HL-60 cells induced to differentiate into monocytes. A strong correlation is found between the levels of pp60c-src kinase activity and the degree of monocytic differentiation of the cells from patients with acute myeloid leukemia. Our findings suggest that the activation of pp60c-src kinase activity is a normal physiological event associated with myeloid differentiation.

Abstract
p36, a major in vivo substrate of protein-tyrosine kinases, is shown to be phosphorylated at serine 25, a site very close to the major site of tyrosine phosphorylation by pp60v-src, tyrosine 23 (J. R. Glenney, Jr., and B. F. Tack, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 82:7884-7888, 1985). We present evidence suggesting that protein kinase C mediates phosphorylation of serine 25.

Abstract
Stimulation of protein kinase C in polyoma virus-transformed cells increased the phosphorylation of tyrosine residues of the viral middle T (mT) antigen in mT:pp60c-src complexes precipitated by anti-mT antibodies. This increase might have been due to a stimulation of the complex's pp60c-src tyrosine kinase activity or to an increased ability of the mT protein to be phosphorylated by pp60c-src. These observations suggest that cellular protein kinase C might control the ability of polyoma virus to transform its host cell.

Abstract
We have constructed two point mutants of Rous sarcoma virus in which the amino-terminal glycine residue of the transforming protein, p60src, was changed to an alanine or a glutamic acid residue. Both mutant proteins failed to become myristylated and, more importantly, no longer transformed cells. The lack of transformation could not be attributed to defects in the catalytic activity of the mutant p60src proteins. In vitro phosphorylation of the peptide angiotensin or of the cellular substrate proteins enolase and p36 revealed no significant differences in the Km or specific activity of the mutant and wild-type p60src proteins. However, when cellular fractions were prepared, less than 12% of the nonmyristylated p60src proteins was bound to membranes. In contrast, more than 82% of the wild-type protein was associated with membranes. Wild-type p60src was phosphorylated by protein kinase C, a protein kinase which associates with membranes when activated. The mutant proteins were not. This finding supports the idea that within the intact cell the nonmyristylated p60src proteins are cytoplasmic and suggests that this apparent solubility is not an artifact of the cell fractionation procedure. The myristyl groups of p60src apparently encourages a tight association between protein and membranes and, by determining the cellular location of the enzyme, allows transformation to occur.

Abstract
The 58,000-Mr form (58K form) of the polyomavirus middle T antigen (mT) is a minor species distinguished by its phosphorylation in vivo on serine and by its efficient phosphorylation on tyrosine in immune complexes (B.S. Schaffhausen and T.L. Benjamin, J. Virol. 40:184-196, 1981). Here we report that the tumor promoter 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA), an activator of protein kinase C, rapidly stimulates phosphorylation of this mT species when added to cultures of wild-type polyomavirus-infected or polyomavirus-transformed 3T3 cells. Incubation with TPA leads to an accumulation of the 58K mT species to levels 1.5- to 5-fold higher than that in untreated cells within 15 min. TPA specifically stimulates phosphorylation of the 58K mT species without affecting that of the 56K species. Mapping by partial proteolysis shows that TPA-stimulated phosphorylation occurs at or near the site in 58K mT that is normally phosphorylated in the absence of TPA. A synthetic diacyl glycerol, 1-oleoyl-2-acetyl-glycerol, also specifically stimulates phosphorylation of 58K mT in vivo, while an inactive phorbol analog does not. TPA fails to induce phosphorylation of a 58K mT species encoded by certain nontransforming virus mutants with altered mT proteins that normally fail to undergo phosphorylation at the 58K site. These results indicate that the 58K form of mT is phosphorylated by or through the action of protein kinase C. TPA treatment of infected cells also leads to increased levels of 58K mT as measured in the immune complex kinase reaction, in which mT becomes phosphorylated on tyrosine by pp60c-src. These results are discussed in terms of a possible role for protein kinase C in activating mT function(s), including the formation of stable complexes with pp60c-src.

Abstract
Incubation of pp60v-src with the purified 12-O-tetradecanoyl-13-acetate (TPA) receptor kinase (protein kinase C) resulted in an increase in the phosphorylation of pp60v-src. Two-dimensional tryptic phosphopeptide mapping showed that three major phosphoserine containing peptides were labeled which were localized within the amino terminal 18,000 Da of the src protein. Based on comparative tryptic mapping, one of these major phosphopeptides was identical to the peptide labeled on pp60v-src immunoprecipitated from cells labeled with [32P]orthophosphate and treated with TPA. These data suggest that a direct interaction takes place between protein kinase C and pp60v-src.
