Abstract
The identification of specific protein kinases as oncogenic drivers in a variety of cancer types, coupled with the clinical success of particular kinase-directed targeted therapies, has cemented the human kinome as an attractive source of "actionable" targets for cancer therapy. However, "mining" of the human kinome for precision oncology applications has yet to yield its full potential. This reflects a variety of issues, including oncogenic kinase dysregulation at levels not detectable by genomic sequencing and the uncharacterized nature of a considerable fraction of the kinome. In addition, selective therapeutic targeting of specific kinases requires efficient mapping of total kinome space impacted by candidate small molecule drugs. Fortunately, recent developments in proteomics techniques, particularly in mass spectrometry-based phosphoproteomics and kinomics, provide the necessary technology platforms to address these impediments. Moreover, initiatives such as the Clinical Proteomic Tumour Analysis Consortium have enabled the generation, deposition and integration of genomic, transcriptomic and (phospho)proteomic data for many cancer types, providing unprecedented insights into oncogenic kinases and cancer cell signalling generally. These multi-omic data are identifying novel therapeutic targets, highlighting opportunities for drug re-purposing, and helping assign optimal therapies to specific tumour subtypes, heralding a new era of "enhanced" precision oncology.

Abstract
An antibody against the posttranslational modification AMPylation was produced using a peptide corresponding to human Rac1 switch I region with AMPylated threonine-35 residue as an antigen. The resulting rabbit antiserum was tested for its abilities to recognize AMPylated proteins by western blot and immunoprecipitation. The antiserum is highly specific for threonine-AMPylated proteins and weakly recognizes tyrosine-AMPylated proteins. Depletion of serum with modified protein abolished its activity against tyrosine-AMPylated proteins. The antiserum also recognized native proteins with modification in an immunoprecipitation experiment. Interactions of the antiserum could be inhibited by competition with AMP but not with GMP or UMP. This antiserum had potential utility for the identification of unknown AMPylated proteins.

Abstract
The Th2 cytokine interleukin (IL) 13 can elicit a number of responses consistent with a key role in the pathogenesis of asthma. We have used pharmacological and genetic approaches to demonstrate the role of signaling via the class I phosphoinositide 3-kinase p110delta isoform in IL-13-induced hyper-responsiveness of murine tracheal smooth muscle contractility in vitro. IL-13 treatment of tracheal tissue is associated with an early activation of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K), as assessed by phosphorylation of Akt. Tracheal smooth muscle contractility is enhanced by overnight incubation with IL-13, resulting in increased maximal contractions (E(max)) to carbachol (CCh) and KCl. Inhibition of PI3K by the non-isoform-selective inhibitors wortmannin or 2-(4-morpholinyl)-8-phenyl-4H-1-benzopyran-4-one (LY294002), or the selective inhibitor of the PI3K p110delta isoform 2-(6-aminopurin-9-ylmethyl)-5-methyl-3-O-tolyl-3H-quinazolin-4-one (IC87114), prevented IL-13-induced hyper-responsiveness. Consistent with a role for PI3K p110delta in IL-13-induced hyper-responsiveness, IL-13 was unable to induce hyper-responsiveness in tissues from mice expressing the catalytically inactive form of p110delta (p110delta(D910A)). These data indicate that IL-13 contributes to tracheal smooth muscle hyper-responsiveness via the PI3K p110delta isoform. In addition to previously reported effects on airway inflammation, inhibition of PI3K p110delta may be a useful target for the treatment of asthma by preventing IL-13-induced airway smooth muscle hyper-responsiveness.

Abstract
Nicotinamide (NAm) represents both a pharmacological agent known to express cell preserving and anti-inflammatory properties, and a useful investigational tool to elucidate cellular pathways regulating a wide range of cellular functions. We demonstrate in this study that exogenous NAm, when used at pharmacological doses, inhibits activation of primary murine B lymphocytes in response to multiple ligands. NAm appears to affect a membrane proximal event leading to MAPKs activation, a transduction pathway shared by multiple receptors including the antigen-specific B cell receptor, CD38, CD40 and TLR4 receptors. NAm inhibited phospho-ERK accumulation, and only marginally affected phospho-p38 and phospho-JNK induction upon BCR stimulation of naive B lymphocytes. Accordingly, NAm also affected the expression of known targets of the MAPK ERK pathway such as CD69 and cyclin D2. Based on a comparison with well-characterized pharmacological inhibitors, we suggest in this work that NAm may inhibit a post-translational modification mediated by a yet unidentified mono(ADP-ribose)transferase. Collectively, our observations indicate that in addition to its previously described effect on cells of the innate immune system, NAm is able to modulate the activity of B lymphocytes suggesting a potential role of this vitamin in regulating antibody-mediated autoimmune disorders.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol lipid signaling cascades are integral part of TCR-CD3 signaling. The mechanisms by which phosphatidylinositol kinases are coupled to TCR-CD3 complex remain elusive. Here we report an association of type II PtdIns 4-kinase with TCR-CD3 zeta chain upon cross-linking. Mapping studies have revealed that the C-terminal ITAM is critical for docking of the enzyme on the zeta chain. The association is shown to be tyrosyl phosphorylation dependent as mutation of Y-151 and Y-142 on the C-terminal ITAM disrupts interaction of the two proteins. Identification of the associated type II PtdIns 4-kinase revealed that the beta isoform of the enzyme interacts with the zeta chain in vivo.

Abstract
Synthetic peptides have become an important tool in antibody production and enzyme characterization. The small size of peptides, however, has hindered their use in assays systems, such as Western blots, and as immunogens. Here, we present a facile method to improve the properties of peptides for multiple applications by ligating the peptides to intein-generated carrier proteins. The stoichiometric ligation of peptide and carrier achieved by intein-mediated protein ligation (IPL) results in the ligation product migrating as a single band on a SDS-PAGE gel. The carrier proteins, HhaI methylase (M.HhaI) and maltose-binding protein (MBP), were ligated to various peptides; the ligated carrier-peptide products gave sharp, reproducible bands when used as positive controls for antibodies raised against the same peptides during Western blot analysis. We further show that ligation of the peptide antigens to a different thioester-tagged carrier protein, paramyosin, produced immunogens for the production of antisera in rabbits or mice. Furthermore, we demonstrate the generation of a substrate for enzymatic assays by ligating a peptide containing the phosphorylation site for Abl protein tyrosine kinase to a carrier protein. This carrier-peptide protein was used as a kinase substrate that could easily be tested for phosphorylation using a phosphotyrosine antibody in Western blot analysis. These techniques do not require sophisticated equipment, reagents, or skills thereby providing a simple method for research and development.

Abstract
Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) is an intermediate filament (IF) protein expressed upon maturation of astrocytes and upregulated during reactive astrogliosis. Its expression is modulated by several growth factors and hormones. Although an upregulation of intracellular cAMP is required for the induction of GFAP expression in astrocytes, little information is available on other downstream factors of the signal transduction pathways involved in the regulation of its expression. In this communication, we identified phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-K) as a necessary enzyme for GFAP expression in rat C6 glioma cells. Use of the specific PI 3-K inhibitors wortmannin and LY294002 and transfection of C6 cells with a dominant negative PI 3-K construct, resulting in a decrease of the enzymatic activity of PI 3-K, inhibited the cAMP-dependent expression of GFAP. Furthermore, confocal laser scanning microscopy demonstrated that inhibition of the PI 3-K activity by LY294002 or wortmannin concomitant with induction of differentiation changes the cellular distribution leading to a pericentrosomal localization of GFAP and an altered cell shape lacking process formation. We conclude that the expression and cellular distribution of GFAP is mediated through a PI 3-K-dependent mechanism.

Abstract
The present study has explored T cell antigen receptor-regulated serine kinases in human T cells. The results identify two phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)-controlled serine kinases operating downstream of the T cell receptor (TCR) in primary T cells: (i) protein kinase B whose activation regulates the phosphorylation of glycogen synthase kinase 3 and (ii) ribosomal S6 kinase 1, a kinase with a critical role in the regulation of protein synthesis and cell growth. T cells express two isoforms of S6k1: a 70 kDa cytoplasmic kinase and an 85 kDa isoform that has a classic nuclear localisation. TCR ligation triggers a parallel engagement of both the 70 and 85 kDa isoforms of S6k1 in a response that requires PI3K function.

Abstract
Ceramide produced by hydrolysis of plasma membrane sphingomyelin (SM) in different cells including brain cells in response to proinflammatory cytokines [tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta)] plays an important role in coordinating cellular responses to stress, growth suppression, and apoptosis. The present study underlines the importance of IL-10 and IL-13, cytokines with potent antiinflammatory properties, in inhibiting the proinflammatory cytokine (TNF-alpha and IL-1beta)-mediated degradation of SM to ceramide in rat primary astrocytes. Treatment of rat primary astrocytes with TNF-alpha or IL-1beta led to rapid degradation of SM to ceramide, whereas IL-10 and IL-13 by themselves were unable to induce the degradation of SM to ceramide. Interestingly, both IL-10 and IL-13 prevented proinflammatory cytokine-induced degradation of SM to ceramide. Both IL-10 and IL-13 caused rapid activation of phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase, and inhibition of that kinase activity by wortmannin and LY294002 potently blocked the inhibitory effect of IL-10 and IL-13 on proinflammatory cytokine-mediated induction of ceramide production. This study suggests that the inhibition of proinflammatory cytokine-mediated degradation of SM to ceramide by IL-10 and IL-13 is mediated through the activation of PI 3-kinase. As ceramide induces apoptosis and IL-10 and IL-13 inhibit the induction of ceramide production, we examined the effect of IL-10 and IL-13 on proinflammatory cytokine-mediated apoptosis. Inhibition of TNF-alpha-induced apoptosis by IL-10 and IL-13 suggests that the antiapoptotic nature of IL-10 and IL-13 is probably due to the inhibition of ceramide production.

Abstract
The present study underlines the importance of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) in attenuating the induction of nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in human astrocytes. Proinflammatory cytokines induced the production of nitric oxide (NO) and the expression of iNOS in human U373MG astrocytoma cells and primary astrocytes. Expression of a catalytically active p110 subunit (p110*) of PI 3-kinase but not that of a kinase-deficient mutant of p110 (p110-kd) induced an increase in PI 3-kinase activity and inhibited cytokine-induced production of NO and expression of iNOS. However, expression of p110* had no effect on the activation of NF-kB, suggesting that p110* inhibits the expression of iNOS without inhibiting the activation of NF-kB.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) produced by inducible nitric-oxide synthase (iNOS) in different cells including brain cells in response to proinflammatory cytokines plays an important role in the pathophysiology of demyelinating and neurodegenerative diseases. The present study underlines the importance of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) in the expression of iNOS in C6 glial cells and rat primary astrocytes. Bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) was unable to induce the expression of iNOS and the production of NO in rat C6 glial cells. Similarly, wortmannin and LY294002, compounds that inhibit PI 3-kinase, were also unable to induce the expression of iNOS and the production of NO. However, a combination of wortmannin or LY294002 with LPS or IL-1beta induced the expression of iNOS and the production of NO in C6 glial cells. Consistent with the induction of iNOS, wortmannin also induced iNOS promoter-derived chloramphenicol acetyltransferase activity in LPS- or IL-1beta-treated C6 glial cells. The expression of iNOS by LPS in C6 glial cells expressing a dominant-negative mutant of p85alpha, the regulatory subunit of PI 3-kinase, further supports the conclusion that inhibition of PI 3-kinase provides a necessary signal for the induction of iNOS. Next we examined the effect of wortmannin on the activation of mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase and nuclear factor NF-kappaB in LPS- or IL-1beta-stimulated C6 glial cells. In contrast to the inability of LPS and IL-1beta alone to induce the expression of iNOS, both LPS and IL-1beta individually stimulated MAP kinase activity and induced DNA binding and transcriptional activity of NF-kappaB. Wortmannin alone was unable to activate MAP kinase and NF-kappaB. Moreover, wortmannin had no effect on LPS- or IL-1beta-mediated activation of MAP kinase and NF-kappaB, suggesting that wortmannin induced the expression of iNOS in LPS- or IL-1beta-stimulated C6 glial cells without modulating the activation of MAP kinase and NF-kappaB. Similar to C6 glial cells, wortmannin also stimulated LPS-mediated expression of iNOS and production of NO in astrocytes without affecting the LPS-mediated activation of NF-kappaB. Taken together, the results from specific chemical inhibitors and dominant-negative mutant expression studies demonstrate that apart from the activation of NF-kappaB, inhibition of PI 3-kinase is also necessary for the expression of iNOS and production of NO.

Abstract
Regulation of phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase (PtdIns 4-kinase) by protein tyrosine phosphorylation has been indirect and the effects of phosphorylation are debatable. Rat splenic type II PtdIns 4-kinase was phosphorylated in vitro with protein tyrosine kinases from Con A stimulated splenic lymphocytes. Stoichiometric analysis showed one mole of phosphate was incorporated per mole of PtdIns 4-kinase. Tyrosine phosphorylation increased the enzyme activity by 3-fold. Kinetic analysis showed a reduction in Km for PtdIns and an increase in Vmax. Dephosphorylation with protein phosphotyrosine phosphatase abolished the activation of PtdIns 4-kinase while protein phosphatase 2A had no effect. Protein tyrosine phosphorylation and activation of PtdIns 4-kinase appear to be tissue specific.

Abstract
The cellular effects of MCP-1 are mediated primarily by binding to CC chemokine receptor-2. We report here that MCP-1 stimulates the formation of the lipid products of phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase, namely phosphatidylinositol 3,4-bisphosphate and phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PI 3,4,5-P3) in THP-1 cells that can be inhibited by pertussis toxin but not wortmannin. MCP-1 also stimulates an increase in the in vitro lipid kinase activity present in immunoprecipitates of the class 1A p85/p110 heterodimeric PI 3-kinase, although the kinetics of activation were much slower than observed for the accumulation of PI 3,4,5-P3. In addition, this in vitro lipid kinase activity was inhibited by wortmannin (IC50 = 4.47 +/- 1.88 nM, n = 4), and comparable concentrations of wortmannin also inhibited MCP-stimulated chemotaxis of THP-1 cells (IC50 = 11.8 +/- 4.2 nM, n = 4), indicating that p85/p110 PI 3-kinase activity is functionally relevant. MCP-1 also induced tyrosine phosphorylation of three proteins in these cells, and a fourth tyrosine-phosphorylated protein co-precipitates with the p85 subunit upon MCP-1 stimulation. In addition, MCP-1 stimulated lipid kinase activity present in immunoprecipitates of a class II PI 3-kinase (PI3K-C2alpha) with kinetics that closely resembled the accumulation of PI 3,4,5-P3. Moreover, this MCP-1-induced increase in PI3K-C2alpha activity was insensitive to wortmannin but was inhibited by pertussis toxin pretreatment. Since this mirrored the effects of these inhibitors on MCP-1-stimulated increases in D-3 phosphatidylinositol lipid accumulation in vivo, these results suggest that activation of PI3K-C2alpha rather than the p85/p110 heterodimer is responsible for mediating the in vivo formation of D-3 phosphatidylinositol lipids. These data demonstrate that MCP-1 stimulates protein tyrosine kinases as well as at least two separate PI 3-kinase isoforms, namely the p85/p110 PI 3-kinase and PI3K-C2alpha. This is the first demonstration that MCP-1 can stimulate PI 3-kinase activation and is also the first indication of an agonist-induced activation of the PI3K-C2alpha enzyme. These two events may play important roles in MCP-1-stimulated signal transduction and biological consequences.

Abstract
Activation of rat splenic lymphocytes by concanavalin A resulted in two-fold increase in Ptdlns 4-kinase activity and rapid tyrosine phosphorylation of the enzyme. The activation kinetics showed a strong correlation with tyrosine phosphorylation state of the enzyme. Characterization of the enzyme activity suggests that it is a type II PtdIns 4-kinase. Kinetic analysis of the enzyme reaction showed three-fold decrease in Km for PtdIns and two-fold increase in Vmax in Con A stimulated cells. These results suggest that a type II PtdIns 4-kinase is an integral component of the early signal transduction machinery during T-cell activation by concanavalin A and is actively regulated by protein tyrosine phosphorylation-dephosphorylation.

Abstract
The intracellular signaling pathways activated upon ligation of the co-stimulatory receptor CD28 remain relatively ill-defined, although CD28 ligation does result in the strong association with, and activation of, phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase. The downstream effector targets of the CD28-activated PI 3-kinase-dependent signaling pathway remain poorly defined, but recent evidence from other systems has shown that Akt/protein kinase B (PKB) is a major target of PI 3-kinase and have indicated that a major function of PKB is the regulation of cell survival events. Given the strong coupling of CD28 to PI 3-kinase and the known protective effects of both CD28 and PI 3-kinase against apoptosis in different cell models, we investigated the effects of CD28 on PKB activation. We demonstrate that ligation of CD28 by either anti-CD28 monoclonal antibodies or the natural ligand B7.1, results in the marked activation of PKB in both the leukemic T cell line Jurkat and freshly isolated human peripheral blood-derived normal T lymphocytes. Our data suggest therefore, that PKB may be an important intracellular signal involved in CD28 signal transduction and demonstrate CD28 coupling to downstream elements of a signaling cascade known to promote cell survival.

Abstract
The human colonic epithelial cell line HT-29 can be induced by a combination of the cytokines interleukin (IL)-1alpha, tumor necrosis factor alpha, and interferon-gamma to express the inducible form of nitric-oxide synthase (iNOS; Kolios, G., Brown, Z., Robson, R., Robertson, D. A. F., & Westwick, J. (1995) Br. J. Pharmacol. 116, 2866-2872). IL-13 is a potent inhibitor of cytokine-induced iNOS mRNA expression and nitric oxide generation in HT-29 cells via an unknown mechanism. We report here that in HT-29 cells, IL-13 induces a concentration and time-dependent increase in the formation of the lipid products of phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) 3-kinase, namely phosphatidylinositol (3,4)-bisphosphate and phosphatidylinositol (3,4,5)-trisphosphate. IL-13 also induces a parallel concentration and time-dependent increase in the in vitro lipid kinase activity present in immunoprecipitates of the p85 regulatory subunit of PtdIns 3-kinase. In addition, we also demonstrate that IL-13 stimulates the tyrosine phosphorylation of the adaptor molecule insulin receptor substrate 1, which may facilitate receptor coupling to PtdIns 3-kinase. Both the increases in D-3 phosphatidylinositol lipids and the increased in vitro lipid kinase activity of p85 immunoprecipitates were inhibited by wortmannin and LY294002. Inhibition of the PtdIns 3-kinase activity was paralleled by a reversal of the ability of IL-13 to inhibit iNOS mRNA expression and nitrite generation in HT-29 cells. These data demonstrate that the activation of PtdIns 3-kinase by IL-13 is a key signal that is responsible for the inhibition of iNOS transcription in activated epithelial cells.

Abstract
CD5 is a glycoprotein expressed on thymocytes, T cells, and a subset of B cells. Antibody-mediated cross-linking studies or studies on CD5 knockout mice implicate CD5 as a co-stimulatory or negative regulatory molecule. CD5 is rapidly phosphorylated on tyrosine (Y) residues following Tcell activation. Y429 and Y441 occur in an imperfect immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM)-like sequence. We investigated whether phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase, which binds to tyrosine-phosphorylated ITAM, interacts with CD5 following T cell activation. PI 3-kinase activity and the regulatory p85 subunit of PI 3-kinase associated with CD5 in pervanadate-stimulated, but not in unstimulated thymocytes. Cellular p85 as well as the recombinant Src homology 2 (SH2) domains of p85 bound a tyrosine-phosphorylated peptide encompassing Y463 with approximately threefold greater affinity than a doubly tyrosine-phosphorylated Y429-Y441 peptide. Binding of the C-SH2 domain to the Y463 phosphopeptide, together with preferential binding of the N-SH2 domain to the Y429-Y441 phosphopeptide, suggests a bivalent interaction. A 120-kDa phosphoprotein (pp120) associated with CD5 and specifically with the Y429-Y441 phosphopeptide in stimulated thymocytes. We conclude that stimulation of thymocytes with pervanadate induces the recruitment of PI 3-kinase and pp120 to CD5.

Abstract
The pivotal role of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) in signal transduction has been well established in recent years. Receptor-regulated forms of PI 3-kinase are thought to phosphorylate phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2) at the 3-position of the inositol ring to give the putative lipid second messenger, phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4, 5)P3). Cellular levels of PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 are currently measured by time-consuming procedures involving radiolabeling with high levels of 32PO4, extraction, and multiple chromatography steps. To avoid these lengthy and hazardous procedures, many laboratories prefer to assay PI 3-kinase activity in cell extracts and/or appropriate immunoprecipitates. Such approaches are not readily applied to measurements of PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 in extracts of animal tissues. Moreover, they can be misleading since the association of PI 3-kinases in molecular complexes is not necessarily correlated with the enzyme's activity state. Direct measurements of PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 would also be desirable since its concentration may be subject to additional control mechanisms such as activation or inhibition of the phosphatases responsible for PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 metabolism. We now report a simple, reproducible isotope dilution assay which detects PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 at subpicomole sensitivity, suitable for measurements of both basal and stimulated levels of PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 obtained from samples containing approximately 1 mg of cellular protein. Total lipid extracts, containing PtdIns(3,4,5)P3, are first subjected to alkaline hydrolysis which results in the release of the polar head group Ins(1,3,4,5)P4. The latter is measured by its ability to displace [32P]Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 from a highly specific binding protein present in cerebellar membrane preparations. We show that this assay solely detects PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 and does not suffer from interference by other compounds generated after alkaline hydrolysis of total cellular lipids. Measurements on a wide range of cells, including rat-1 fibroblasts, 1321N1 astrocytoma cells, HEK 293 cells, and rat adipocytes, show wortmannin-sensitive increased levels of PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 upon stimulation with appropriate agonists. The enhanced utility of this procedure is further demonstrated by measurements of PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 levels in tissue derived from whole animals. Specifically, we show that stimulation with insulin increases PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 levels in rat skeletal muscle in vivo with a time course which parallels the activation of protein kinase B in the same samples.

Abstract
The T cell antigen receptor (TCR) regulates the activation and growth of T lymphocytes. The initial membrane proximal event triggered by the TCR is activation of protein tyrosine kinases with the resultant phosphorylation of cellular proteins. This biochemical response couples the TCR to a divergent array of signal transduction molecules including enzymes that regulate lipid metabolism, GTP binding proteins, serine/threonine kinases, and adapter molecules. The ultimate aim of studies of intracellular signaling mechanisms is to understand the functional consequences of a particular biochemical event for receptor function. The control of cytokine gene expression is one of the mechanism that allows the TCR to control immune responses. Accordingly, one object of the present review is to discuss the role of the different TCR signal transduction pathways in linking the TCR to nuclear targets: the transcription factors that control the expression of cytokine genes.

Abstract
A tyrosine-phosphorylated protein with a molecular mass of 115 kDa was reported to be tightly associated with the p85 regulatory subunit of phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase, when the enzyme was essentially activated upon ligand engagement of Fc gamma receptors (Fc gamma R) leading to engulfment of IgG-coated erythrocytes by phagocytes [Ninomiya et al. (1994) J. Biol. Chem. 269, 22732-22737]. Here, the 115-kDa protein is identified as the product of human c-cbl protooncogene. Cross-linking of Fc gamma RII on the surface of THP-1 cells triggered (a) prominent tyrosine phosphorylation of Cbl, (b) activation of PI 3-kinase that was immunoprecipitated with the anti-Cbl or the anti-phosphotyrosine antibody, and (c) specific association of Cbl with p85. Thus, Cbl functions in phagocytes as a result of its association with PI 3-kinase in response to Fc gamma R ligation.

Abstract
Tyrosine phosphorylation of cellular proteins is an early and an essential step in T cell receptor-mediated lymphocyte activation. Tyrosine phosphorylation of transmembrane receptor chains (such as zeta and CD3 chains) and membrane-associated proteins provides docking sites for SH2 domains of adaptor proteins and signaling enzymes, resulting in their recruitment in the vicinity of activated receptors. pp36/38 is a prominent substrate of early tyrosine phosphorylation upon stimulation through the T cell receptor. The tyrosine-phosphorylated form of pp36/38 is membrane-associated and directly interacts with phospholipase C-gamma 1 and Grb2, providing one mechanism to recruit downstream effectors to the cell membrane. Here, we demonstrate that in Jurkat T cells, pp36/38 associates with the p85 subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI-3-K p85) in an activation-dependent manner. Association of pp36/38 with PI-3-K p85 was confirmed by transfection of a hemagglutinin-tagged p85 alpha cDNA into Jurkat cells followed by anti-hemagglutinin immunoprecipitation. In vitro binding experiments with glutathione S-transferase fusion proteins of PI-3-K p85 demonstrated that the SH2 domains, but not the SH3 domain, mediated binding to pp36/38. This binding was selectively abrogated by phosphopeptides that bind to p85 SH2 domains with high affinity. Filter binding assays demonstrated that association between pp36/38 and PI-3-K p85 SH2 domains was due to direct binding. These results strongly suggest the role of pp36/38 in recruiting PI-3-K to the cell membrane and further support the idea that pp36/38 is a multifunctional docking protein for SH2 domain-containing signaling proteins in T cells.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI-3 kinase) has been implicated in cellular events such as mitogenic signaling, actin organization, and receptor sorting. The p85 subunit of PI-3 kinase contains multiple domains capable of protein-protein interactions that may contribute to mediate the multiple physiological functions of this enzyme. Here, we demonstrate that antibodies raised against the p85 subunit of PI-3 kinase immunoprecipitate a single tyrosine-phosphorylated protein of 120 kDa (pp120) from lysates of activated Jurkat T cells and A20 B cells. This protein is the only significant phosphotyrosine-containing protein in p85 immunoprecipitates from these cells, and it cannot be detected in immunoprecipitates of other signaling proteins such as PLC gamma. Furthermore, antibodies specific for the beta isoform of p85 but not antibodies specific for the alpha isoform immunoprecipitate this tyrosine-phosphorylated protein. pp120 completely comigrates with the proto-oncogene c-cbl, which is a 120 kDa protein product abundant in lymphoid cells. Furthermore, immunoblots of p85 immunoprecipitates using antibodies raised against c-cbl detect a band at exactly the position of pp120. In addition, p85 can be detected in immunoblots of c-cbl immunoprecipitates. Thus, pp120 appears to correspond to c-cbl. A direct association between c-cbl and p85 can be observed in vitro using a fusion protein comprising the Src homology 2 (SH2) domains of p85, and this binding is abolished by phenyl phosphate, suggesting that the interaction is mediated through phosphotyrosine-SH2 domain interactions. Thus, these results show important functional differences between the alpha and beta isoforms of p85 in vivo and point to c-cbl as a potentially important mediator of some of the functions of PI-3 kinase in intact cells.

Abstract
Several natural and unnatural inositol phosphates and analogues were analyzed for their ability to inhibit the in vitro phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) activity immunoprecipitated from a leukemic T cell line by a p85 monoclonal antibody. A 3-position ring-modified analogue of D-myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3), L-chiro-inositol 2,3,5-trisphosphate (L-chiro-Ins(2,3,5)P3) and its phosphorothioate analogue, L-chiro-inositol 2,3,5-trisphosphorothioate, as well as the analogue benzene 1,2,4-trisphosphate induced reversible inhibition of PI 3-kinase activity, which correlated with decreased Vmax but unchanged Km values for PI 3-kinase. Other inositol phosphates, including D- and L-Ins(1,4,5)P3, D-myo-inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate, the enantiomers of myo-inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate, DL-myo-inositol 1,4,6-trisphosphate (DL-Ins(1,4,6)P3), and DL-scyllo-inositol 1,2,4-trisphosphate (DL-scyllo-Ins(1,2,4)P3), did not inhibit PI 3-kinase activity under identical conditions. L-chiro-Ins(2,3,5)P3 closely resembles Ins(1,4,5)P3 and D-Ins(1,4,6)P3 except for a difference in the orientation of a single hydroxyl group at either the equivalent 3-OH or 2-OH position of Ins(1,4,5)P3, respectively. Similarly, L-chiro-Ins(2,3,5)P3 resembles D-scyllo-Ins(1,2,4)P3, but has a different orientation of both the equivalent 3-OH and 2-OH positions. Since Ins(1,4,5)P3, DL-Ins(1,4,6)P3, and DL-scyllo-Ins(1,2,4)P3 did not inhibit PI 3-kinase activity, this suggests that the orientation of the two hydroxyl groups at the 2- and 3-positions plays a pivotal role in the inhibitory action of inositol phosphate analogues on PI 3-kinase activity. Thus, inositol phosphate analogues inter alia are shown for the first time to inhibit PI 3-kinase and may be useful tools for determining the function of PI 3-kinase and its substrate binding specificities.

Abstract
T lymphocyte activation requires at least two signals, one via the antigen-specific T cell receptor and a second via the surface molecule CD28 which provides signals critical to interleukin-2 (IL-2) production and T cell proliferation. We have previously shown (Ward S. G., Westwick, J., Hall N. and Sansom D. M. Eur. J. Immunol. 1993. 23: 2572) that CD28 stimulates phosphoinositide (PI) 3-kinase activity, indicating that D-3 phosphoinositides may act as mediators of CD28-induced T cell costimulation. Here, we report that immunoprecipitation of CD28 molecules from Jurkat cells stimulated with the CD28-ligand B7, results in a ligand-dependent association of CD28 with PI 3-kinase. This association correlates with the appearance of PI 3-kinase enzymatic activity in CD28 immunoprecipitates and the formation of D-3 phosphoinositides. Consistent with the hypothesis that D-3 phosphoinositides are important mediators of CD28 signaling, treatment of T cells with the PI 3-kinase inhibitor wortmannin, inhibited both T cell proliferation and production of IL-2, but not the response of T cells to exogenous IL-2. Hence, abrogation of PI 3-kinase activity by wortmannin, appears sufficient to disrupt the costimulatory pathway utilized by CD28, indicating a central role for this enzyme in the CD28 signaling pathway.

Abstract
The CD7 40-kDa glycoprotein is present on a major subset of human T cells and in the presence of phorbol esters mediates an accessory pathway of T cell activation. Hitherto, the intracellular events elicited by CD7 have been ill-defined. This report demonstrates that cross-linking of CD7 results in the formation of phosphatidic acid in the absence of phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate metabolism and also the formation of D-3 phosphoinositides lipids which have been postulated to act as intracellular regulatory molecules. The magnitude of D-3 phosphoinositide formation was similar to that induced by CD3. Both the CD7- and CD3-induced elevation of phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate approximately 5-10 fold less than that elicited by ligation of the costimulatory molecule CD28 by its counter receptor CD80. The formation of D-3 phosphoinositides following ligation of CD7 coincided with the co-association of CD7 with phosphoinositide 3-kinase, the enzyme which mediates the formation of D-3 phosphoinositide lipids. In contrast, ligation of another reported T cell accessory molecule CD5, failed to elicit formation of D-3 phosphoinositides, implying that phosphoinositide 3-kinase is not coupled to all T cell molecules with accessory functions. Since D-3 phosphoinositides have been suggested to play a pivotal role in T cell costimulatory signals induced by CD28, the results presented in this study suggest that CD7 may also influence T cell activation via this pathway.

Abstract
A central question in T-cell immunity concerns the nature of intracellular signaling from the antigen receptor, the CD4/CD8 co-receptors and the CD28 antigen. Since the original discovery that T-cell receptors such as CD4 can interact with intracellular protein-tyrosine kinases such as p56lck, remarkable progress has been made in deciphering the signaling pathways that control T-cell growth and immune function. Here, Christopher Rudd and colleagues examine the role of protein-tyrosine kinases, SH2/SH3 domains and lipid kinases in the generation of signals from the TCR zeta/CD3 complex and the CD28 antigen.

Abstract
Engagement of antigen receptor complexes induces rapid activation of Src-family kinases and association with phosphatidylinositol-3' kinase (PI-3 kinase). Here it was found that the Src homology 3 (SH3) domain of Lyn and Fyn bound to a proline-rich region (residues 84 to 99) within the 85-kilodalton subunit (p85) of PI-3 kinase. The binding of SH3 to the purified kinase led to a five- to sevenfold increase in the specific activity of PI-3 kinase. Ligand-induced receptor stimulation activated PI-3 kinase, and this activation was blocked by a peptide containing residues 84 to 99 of p85. These data demonstrate a mechanism for PI-3 kinase activation and show that binding of SH3 domains to proline-rich target sequences can regulate enzymatic activity.

Abstract
T-cell and B-cell antigen receptors are representative of a family of multisubunit receptors that utilize Src-family kinases as proximal cytoplasmic effectors in signal transduction. Recent studies have shown that distinct receptor subunits mediate ligand and effector interactions and demonstrate that physical interaction with effectors, and their activation, is a function of a 26 amino acid motif found in multiple receptor subunits. Further, receptor ligation induces tyrosine phosphorylation of this motif, and this initiates SH2-mediated association and activation of Src-family kinases and, apparently, ZAP70 kinases. Finally, this association triggers SH3-mediated binding of Lyn and Fyn to PI3-K, resulting in PI3-K activation. An integrated model of signal transduction is presented.

Abstract
The co-stimulatory role of B7/CD28 interactions is important in promoting T cell activation. Very little is known about the intracellular events that follow CD28 engagement although recent evidence has implicated coupling of CD28 to a protein tyrosine kinase signal transduction pathway. In this study we have investigated the putative role of D-3 phosphoinositides as mediators of CD28 receptor signaling, since phosphoinositide (PI) 3-kinase, the enzyme responsible for D-3 phosphoinositide formation, is a known substrate for protein tyrosine kinases associated with certain T cell surface receptors such as CD4 and interleukin-2 receptor. The lipid products of PI 3-kinase activity have been suggested to play a role in mitogenic signaling and growth regulation in other cells. Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO) previously transfected with B7 cDNA, induced time-dependent elevation above basal levels of phosphatidylinositol(3,4)-bisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4)P2) and PtdIns(3,4,5)P3, while parental CHO cells that did not express B7 had no effect on these lipids. Moreover, the elevation of these same lipids by CD3 ligation was potentiated in an additive manner by CHO-B7+ but not by CHO-B7- cells. CHO-B7+ and CHO-B7- cells did not activate phospholipase C as evidenced by their inability to modulate basal or CD3-induced changes in the levels of phosphatidic acid or D-4 and D-5 phosphoinositides. These data imply that PI 3-kinase but not phospholipase C, may be an important signal transduction molecule with respect to CD28-mediated co-stimulation and T cell activation following ligation by B7.

Abstract
The CD4-p56lck and CD8-p56lck complexes have served as a paradym for an expanding number of interactions between src-family members (p56lck, p59fyn, p56lyn, p55blk) and surface receptors. These interactions implicate src-related kinases in the regulation of a variety of intracellular events, from lymphokine production and cytotoxicity to the expression of specific nuclear binding proteins. Different molecular mechanisms appear to have evolved to facilitate the receptor-kinase interactions, including the use of N-terminal regions, SH2 regions and kinase domains. Variation exists in stoichiometry, affinity and the nature of signals generated by these complexes in cells. The CD4-p56lck complex differs from receptor-tyrosine kinases in a number of important ways, including mechanisms of kinase domain regulation and recruitment of substrates such as PI 3-kinase. Furthermore, they may have a special affinity for receptor-substrates such as the TcR zeta, MB1/B29 or CD5 receptors, and act to recruit other SH2-carrying proteins, such as ZAP-70 to the receptor complexes. Receptor-src kinase interactions represent the first step in a cascade of intracellular events within the protein-tyrosine kinase/phosphatase cascade.
