Abstract
SRC is a major regulator of many signaling pathways and contributes to cancer development. However, development of a selective SRC inhibitor has been challenging, and FDA-approved SRC inhibitors, dasatinib and bosutinib, are multitargeted kinase inhibitors. Here, we describe our efforts to develop a selective SRC covalent inhibitor by targeting cysteine 277 on the P-loop of SRC. Using a promiscuous covalent kinase inhibitor (CKI) SM1-71 as a starting point, we developed covalent inhibitor 15a, which discriminates SRC from other covalent targets of SM1-71 including TAK1 and FGFR1. As an irreversible covalent inhibitor, compound 15a exhibited sustained inhibition of SRC signaling both in vitro and in vivo. Moreover, 15a exhibited potent antiproliferative effects in nonsmall cell lung cancer cell lines harboring SRC activation, thus providing evidence that this approach may be promising for further drug development efforts.

Abstract
Sam68 (Src-associated in mitosis of 68 kDa) is a substrate for tyrosine kinase c-Src during mitosis. The nuclear protein level has been found to be associated with progression and prognosis in various human malignant tumors. The aim of this study is to investigate the clinical value of Sam68 in endometrial carcinoma (EC). Sam68 expression was confirmed by real-time PCR, Western blot, and immunofluorescent assay in primary normal endometrial epithelial cells, endometrial carcinoma cell lines, as well as seven pairs of EC and matched adjacent noncancerous endometrial tissues. Moreover, the protein level of Sam68 was evaluated by immunohistochemistry in a cohort of surgical specimens derived from 131 patients including primary endometrial carcinoma (n = 95), endometrial atypical hyperplasia (precancerous lesions, n = 26), and normal endometria (n = 10). In endometrial cancer cell lines, RNA interfering approach was employed to downregulate Sam68 expression to determine its role in proliferation. Clinicopathological relevance and prognostic associations were examined by statistical analyses. Compared with normal endometrial and endometrial atypical hyperplasia tissues, Sam68 significantly elevated in endometrial cancer samples (P < 0.01), which was negative or low in 37 cases (38.9 %) and high in 58 cases (61.1 %). The high expression of Sam68 was associated with histological grade (P < 0.001), FIGO stage (P = 0.039), and myometrial invasion (P = 0.002). Kaplan-Meier analysis demonstrated that overexpression of Sam68 correlated with shorter overall survival. It is confirmed by univariate and multivariate analysis (P < 0.001 and P = 0.048, respectively). Additionally, we found that Sam68 was highly expressed at both the transcriptional and translational levels in endometrial cancer cell lines (Ishikawa, HEC-1B, AN3CA, KLE, and RL95-2) and siRNA knockdown of Sam68 remarkably inhibited cellular proliferation in in vitro models. Sam68 may be useful prognostic marker for EC, and it plays an important role in promoting the cellular proliferation. Further investigation of Sam68 as a potential therapeutic target for EC patients could be of interest.

Abstract
The STAR family of proteins links signaling pathways to various aspects of post-transcriptional regulation and processing of RNAs. Sam68 belongs to this class of heteronuclear ribonucleoprotein particle K (hnRNP K) homology (KH) single domain-containing family of RNA-binding proteins that also contains some domains predicted to bind critical components in signal transduction pathways. In response to phosphorylation and other post-transcriptional modifications, Sam68 has been shown to have the ability to link signal transduction pathways to downstream effects regulating RNA metabolism, including transcription, alternative splicing or RNA transport. In addition to its function as a docking protein in some signaling pathways, this prototypic STAR protein has been identified to have a nuclear localization and to take part in the formation of both nuclear and cytosolic multi-molecular complexes such as Sam68 nuclear bodies and stress granules. Coupling with other proteins and RNA targets, Sam68 may play a role in the regulation of differential expression and mRNA processing and translation according to internal and external signals, thus mediating important physiological functions, such as cell death, proliferation or cell differentiation.

Abstract
Sam68, Src associated in mitosis of 68 kDa, is a known RNA-binding protein and a signaling adaptor protein for tyrosine kinases. However, the proteins associated with Sam68 and the existence of a Sam68 complex, its mass, and regulation are, however, unknown. Herein we identify a large Sam68 complex with a mass >1 MDa in HeLa cells that is composed of approximately 40 proteins using an immunoprecipitation followed by a mass spectrometry approach. Many of the proteins identified are RNA-binding proteins and are known components of a previously identified structure termed the spreading initiation center. The large Sam68 complex is a ribonucleoprotein complex, as treatment with RNases caused a shift in the molecular mass of the complex to 200-450 kDa. Moreover, treatment of HeLa cells with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate or epidermal growth factor induced the disassociation of Sam68 from the large complex and the appearance of Sam68 within the smaller complex. Actually, in certain cell lines such as breast cancer cell lines MCF-7 and BT-20, Sam68 exists in equilibrium between a large and a small complex. The appearance of the small Sam68 complex in cells correlates with the ability of Sam68 to promote the alternative splicing of CD44 and cell migration. Our findings show that Sam68 exists in equilibrium in transformed cells between two complexes and that extracellular signals, such as epidermal growth factor stimulation, promote alternative splicing by modulating the composition of the Sam68 complex.

Abstract
The Src-associated substrate during mitosis with a molecular mass of 68 kDa (Sam68) is predominantly nuclear and is known to associate with proteins containing the Src homology 3 (SH3) and SH2 domains. Although Sam68 is a Src substrate, little is known about the signaling pathway that link them. Src is known to be activated transiently after cell spreading, where it modulates the activity of small Rho GTPases. Herein we report that Sam68-deficient cells exhibit loss of cell polarity and cell migration. Interestingly, Sam68-deficient cells exhibited sustained Src activity after cell attachment, resulting in the constitutive tyrosine phosphorylation and activation of p190RhoGAP and its association with p120rasGAP. Consistently, we observed that Sam68-deficient cells exhibited deregulated RhoA and Rac1 activity. By using total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy, we observed Sam68 near the plasma membrane after cell attachment coinciding with phosphorylation of its C-terminal tyrosines and association with Csk. These findings show that Sam68 localizes near the plasma membrane during cell attachment and serves as an adaptor protein to modulate Src activity for proper signaling to small Rho GTPases.

Abstract
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) codes for a protein, Rev, that mediates the viral RNA export from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. Recently, it has been found that Sam68, the substrate of Src associated in mitosis, is a functional homologue of Rev, and a synergistic activator of Rev activity. Thus, it has been suggested that Sam68 may play an important role in the post-transcriptional regulation of HIV. Sam68 contains an RNA binding motif named KH [homology to the nuclear ribonucleoprotein (hnRNP) K]. Tyrosine phosphorylation of Sam68 and binding to SH3 domains have been found to negatively regulate its RNA binding capacity. Besides, tyrosine phosphorylation of Sam68 allows the formation of signalling complexes with other proteins containing SH2 and SH3 domains, suggesting a role in signal transduction of different systems in human lymphocytes, such as the T cell receptor, and leptin receptor, or the insulin receptor in other cell types. In the present work, we have found that Sam68 is tyrosine phosphorylated in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from HIV infected subjects, leading to the formation of signalling complexes with p85 the regulatory subunit of PI3K, GAP and STAT-3, and decreasing its RNA binding capacity. In contrast, PBMC from HIV infected subjects have lower expression levels of Sam68 compared with controls. These results suggest that Sam68 may play some role in the immune function of lymphocytes in HIV infection.

Abstract
Sam68 (Src-associated in mitosis, 68 kDa), a nuclear RNA-binding protein, has been postulated to play a role in cell-growth control as a modulator of signal transduction and activation of RNA metabolism. Although Sam68 was demonstrated to bind to the UAAA sequences in synthetic oligoribonucleotides and poly(U) homopolymers in vitro, the legitimate cellular mRNA target remained unclear. By using the differential display and cDNA-representational difference analysis techniques, followed by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction of RNAs co-immunoprecipitated with Sam68 from a HeLa cell lysate, we identified 10 mRNA species that bind in vivo to Sam68 in an RNA-binding domain-dependent manner. Among them, the mRNA species for hnRNP A2/B1 and beta-actin were found to bind prominently in vivo as well as in vitro, suggesting the possible involvement of Sam68 in the post- transcriptional regulation of these genes. Mapping of the Sam68-binding sequence revealed that Sam68 associates with these mRNAs through different nucleotide motifs, UAAA for hnRNP A2/B1 mRNA and UUUUUU for beta-actin mRNA, and that both binding sequences must reside in a loop structure for recognition by Sam68. The results indicated that Sam68 recognizes both the UAAA motif and poly(U) sequences in vivo for binding to cellular target mRNAs.

Abstract
Two approaches have been utilized to investigate the role of individual SH2 domains in growth factor activation of phospholipase C-gamma1 (PLC-gamma1). Surface plasmon resonance analysis indicates that the individual N-SH2 and C-SH2 domains are able to specifically recognize a phosphotyrosine-containing peptide corresponding to Tyr 1021 of the platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) beta receptor. To assess SH2 function in the context of the full-length PLC-gamma1 molecule as well as within the intact cell, PLC-gamma1 SH2 domain mutants, disabled by site-directed mutagenesis of the N-SH2 and/or C-SH2 domain(s), were expressed in Plcg1(-/-) fibroblasts. Under equilibrium incubation conditions (4 degrees C, 40 min), the N-SH2 domain, but not the C-SH2 domain, was sufficient to mediate significant PLC-gamma1 association with the activated PDGF receptor and PLC-gamma1 tyrosine phosphorylation. When both SH2 domains in PLC-gamma1 were disabled, the double mutant did not associate with activated PDGF receptors and was not tyrosine phosphorylated. However, no single SH2 mutant was able to mediate growth factor activation of Ca2+ mobilization or inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) formation. Subsequent kinetic experiments demonstrated that each single SH2 domain mutant was significantly impaired in its capacity to mediate rapid association with activated PDGF receptors and become tyrosine phosphorylated. Hence, when assayed under physiological conditions necessary to achieve a rapid biological response (Ca2+ mobilization and IP3 formation), both SH2 domains of PLC-gamma1 are essential to growth factor responsiveness.

Abstract
Sam68, the 68-kDa Src substrate associated during mitosis, is an RNA-binding protein with signaling properties that contains a GSG (GRP33, Sam68, GLD-1) domain. Here we report the cloning of two Sam68-like-mammalian proteins, SLM-1 and SLM-2. These proteins have an approximately 70% sequence identity with Sam68 in their GSG domain. SLM-1 and SLM-2 have the characteristic Sam68 SH2 and SH3 domain binding sites. SLM-1 is an RNA-binding protein that is tyrosine phosphorylated by Src during mitosis. SLM-1 bound the SH2 and SH3 domains of p59(fyn), Grb-2, phospholipase Cgamma-1 (PLCgamma-1), and/or p120(rasGAP), suggesting it may function as a multifunctional adapter protein for Src during mitosis. SLM-2 is an RNA-binding protein that is not tyrosine phosphorylated by Src or p59(fyn). Moreover, SLM-2 did not associate with the SH3 domains of p59(fyn), Grb-2, PLCgamma-1, or p120(rasGAP), suggesting that SLM-2 may not function as an adapter protein for these proteins. The identification of SLM-1 and SLM-2 demonstrates the presence of a Sam68/SLM family whose members have the potential to link signaling pathways with RNA metabolism.

Abstract
Sam68 is a member of a growing family of proteins that contain a single KH domain embedded in a larger conserved domain of approximately 170 amino acids. Loops 1 and 4 of this KH domain family are longer than the corresponding loops in other KH domains and contain conserved residues. KH domains are protein motifs that are involved in RNA binding and are often present in multiple copies. Here we demonstrate by coimmunoprecipitation studies that Sam68 self-associated and that cellular RNA was required for the association. Deletion studies demonstrated that the Sam68 KH domain loops 1 and 4 were required for self-association. The Sam68 interaction was also observed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae by the two-hybrid system. In situ chemical cross-linking studies in mammalian cells demonstrated that Sam68 oligomerized in vivo. These Sam68 complexes bound homopolymeric RNA and the SH3 domains of p59fyn and phospholipase Cgamma1 in vitro, demonstrating that Sam68 associates with RNA and signaling molecules as a multimer. The formation of the Sam68 complex was inhibited by p59fyn, suggesting that tyrosine phosphorylation regulates Sam68 oligomerization. Other Sam68 family members including Artemia salina GRP33, Caenorhabditis elegans GLD-1, and mouse Qk1 also oligomerized. In addition, Sam68, GRP33, GLD-1, and Qk1 associated with other KH domain proteins such as Bicaudal C. These observations indicate that the single KH domain found in the Sam68 family, in addition to mediating protein-RNA interactions, mediates protein-protein interactions.

Abstract
The stimulatory and inhibitory pathways initiated by engagement of stimulatory receptors such as the B cell receptor for antigen (BCR) and inhibitory receptors such as Fcgamma receptors of the IIB1 type (FcgammaRIIB1) intersect in ways that are poorly understood at the molecular level. Because the tyrosine kinase Csk is a potential negative regulator of lymphocyte activation, we examined the effects of BCR and FcgammaRIIB1 engagement on the binding of Csk to phosphotyrosine-containing proteins. Stimulation of a B lymphoma cell line, A20, with intact anti-IgG antibody induced a direct, SH2-mediated association between Csk and a 62-kD phosphotyrosine-containing protein that was identified as RasGTPase-activating protein-associated p62 (GAP-A.p62). In contrast, stimulation of A20 cells with anti-IgG F(ab')2 resulted in little increase in the association of Csk with GAP-A.p62. The effect of FcgammaRIIB1 engagement on this association was abolished by blockade of FcgammaRIIB1 with the monoclonal antibody 2.4G2. Furthermore, the increased association between Csk and GAP-A.p62 seen upon stimulation with intact anti-Ig was abrogated in the FcgammaRIIB1-deficient cell line IIA1.6 and recovered when FcgammaRIIB1 expression was restored by transfection. The differential effects of BCR and BCR-FcgammaRIIB1-mediated signaling on the phosphorylation of GAP-A.p62 and its association with Csk suggest that docking of Csk to GAP-A.p62 may function in the negative regulation of antigen receptor-mediated signals in B cells.

Abstract
The role of phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase in specific aspects of insulin signaling was explored in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Inhibition of PI 3-kinase activity by LY294002 or wortmannin significantly enhanced basal and insulin-stimulated GTPase-activating protein (GAP) activity in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Furthermore, removal of the inhibitory influence of PI 3-kinase on GAP resulted in dose-dependent decreases in the ability of insulin to stimulate p21ras. This effect was specific to adipocytes, as inhibition of PI 3-kinase did not influence GAP in either 3T3-L1 fibroblasts, Rat-1 fibroblasts, or CHO cells. Immunodepletion of either of the two subunits of the PI 3-kinase (p85 or p110) yielded similar activation of GAP, suggesting that catalytic activity of p110 plays an important role in controlling GAP activity in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Inhibition of PI 3-kinase activity in 3T3-L1 adipocytes resulted in abrogation of insulin-stimulated glucose uptake and thymidine incorporation. In contrast, effects of insulin on glycogen synthase and mitogen-activated protein kinase activity were inhibited only at higher concentrations of LY294002. It appears that in adipocytes, P1 3-kinase prevents activation of GAP. Inhibition of PI 3-kinase activity or immunodepletion of either one of its subunits results in activation of GAP and decreases in GTP loading of p21ras.

We have previously reported that c-Cbl is implicated in the signal transduction triggered by granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor or erythropoietin in hematopoietic cells. Here, we observed tyrosine phosphorylation of C-cbl in cells expressing epidermal growth factor receptor depending on EGF stimulation and in v-src transformed cells. Furthermore, c-Cbl was revealed to associate with v-Src in vivo. By means of binding experiments using glutathione S-transferase fusion proteins, we have found that the SH2 and SH3 domains of many proteins bind to c-Cbl. These findings strongly suggest that c-Cbl is implicated in a wide variety of signal transduction pathways, including those of EGF receptor and Src protein, as well as in the signaling pathways of hematopoietic cells.

Abstract
Surface IgM (sIgM) stimulation induces the tyrosine phosphorylation of multiple cellular substrates, including phospholipase C (PLC)-gamma 2, which is involved in the activation of phosphatidylinositol pathway. DT40 B cells underwent apoptotic cell death when activated through sIgM, a phenomenon that is related to elimination of self-reactive B cells. To examine the roles of PLC-gamma 2 in sIgM signaling, we have generated DT40 cells deficient in PLC-gamma 2 Cross-linking of sIgM on PLC-gamma 2-deficient cells evoked neither inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate nor calcium mobilization. In PLC-gamma 2- or Syk-deficient DT40 cells, the induction of apoptosis was blocked, but was still observed in Lyn-deficient cells. Src homology 2 domains of PLC-gamma 2 were essential for both its activation and sIgM-induced apoptosis. Since tyrosine phosphorylation of PLC-gamma 2 is mediated by Syk, these results indicate that activation of PLC-gamma 2 through Syk is required for sIgM-induced apoptosis.

Abstract
CSK is a predominantly cytosolic protein-tyrosine kinase (PTK) that negatively regulates Src family PTKs by phosphorylation of a conserved tyrosine near their C termini. Little is known about how CSK itself is regulated. On the basis of immunofluorescence studies, a model has been proposed that when c-Src is activated, it is redistributed to podosomes, in which substrates become phosphorylated, creating binding sites for CSK. CSK is recruited to these sites of c-Src activation via its SH2 and SH3 domains and is then in a position to downregulate c-Src activity (B. W. Howell and J. A. Cooper, Mol. Cell. Biol. 14:5402-5411, 1994). To identify phosphotyrosine (P.Tyr)-containing proteins that may mediate translocation of CSK due to c-Src activation, we have examined the whole spectrum of P.Tyr-containing proteins that associate with CSK in v-Src NIH 3T3 cells by anti-P.Tyr immunoblotting. Nine P.Tyr-containing proteins coimmunoprecipitated with CSK from v-Src NIH 3T3 cells. One of these, an approximately 62-kDa protein, also associated with CSK in NIH 3T3 cells treated with vanadate prior to lysis and in NIH 3T3 cells expressing an activated c-Src mutant. This 62-kDa protein was shown to be identical to the GTPase-activating protein (GAP)-associated p62 (GAP-A.p62) protein. The interaction between CSK and GAP-A.p62 could be reconstituted in vitro with glutathione S-transferase fusion proteins containing full-length CSK or the CSK SH2 domain. Furthermore, our data show that CSK interacts directly with GAP.A-p62 and that the complex between the two proteins is localized in subcellular membrane or cytoskeletal fractions. Our results suggest that GAP-A.p62 may function as a docking protein and may mediate translocation of proteins, including GAP and CSK, to membrane or cytoskeletal regions upon c-Src activation.

Abstract
Ectopic overexpression of v-H-Ras protein in NIH 3T3 cells resulted in cellular transformation and an acceleration of G1 progression of these cells. A shortened G1 phase was found to be associated with an increased level of cyclin D1 but not cyclin E protein. Using an antisense blocking method, reduced synthesis of cyclin D1 in v-H-Ras transformants resulted in a slower G1 progression rate of these cells. Although constitutive overexpression of cyclin D1 in NIH 3T3 cells accelerated G1 progression, cells remained untransformed. Furthermore, inhibition of cyclin D1 synthesis greatly impaired the soft-agar cloning efficiency of v-H-Ras transformants. These results suggest that increased expression of cyclin D1 is necessary but not sufficient for the transforming activity of v-H-Ras. Similar effect on cell cycle progression was also observed in Raf-transformed cells. In addition to cyclin D1, cyclin E protein was found to be elevated in Src transformants. This may account for the further shortening of the G1 phase of these cells. Activation of an additional Ras-independent pathway was suggested to be responsible for the further acceleration of the G1 phase in Src transformants.

Abstract
The beta receptor for platelet-derived growth factor (beta PDGFR) is activated by binding of PDGF and undergoes phosphorylation at multiple tyrosine residues. The tyrosine-phosphorylated receptor associates with numerous SH2-domain-containing proteins which include phospholipase C-gamma 1 (PLC gamma), the GTPase-activating protein of Ras (GAP), the p85 subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase (PI3K), the phosphotyrosine phosphatase Syp, and several other proteins. Our previous studies indicated that PI3K and PLC gamma were required for relay of the mitogenic signal of beta PDGFR, whereas GAP and Syp did not appear to be required for this response. In this study, we further investigated the role of GAP and Syp in mitogenic signaling by beta PDGFR. Focusing on the PLC gamma-dependent branch of beta PDGFR signaling, we constructed a series of mutant beta PDGFRs that contained the binding sites for pairs of the receptor-associated proteins: PLC gamma and PI3K, PLC gamma and GAP, or PLC gamma and Syp. Characterization of these mutants showed that while all receptors were catalytically active and bound similar amounts of PLC gamma, they differed dramatically in their ability to initiate DNA synthesis. This signaling deficiency related to an inability to efficiently tyrosine phosphorylate and activate PLC gamma. Surprisingly, the crippled receptor was the one that recruited PLC gamma and GAP. Thus, GAP functions to suppress signal relay by the beta PDGFR, and it does so by silencing PLC gamma. These findings demonstrate that the biological response to PDGF depends not only on the ability of the beta PDGFR to recruit signal relay enzymes but also on the blend of these receptor-associated proteins.

Abstract
Activation of the tyrosine kinase activity of the insulin receptor by autophosphorylation leads to phosphorylation of cellular substrates on tyrosine. Thus far, the best characterized is the insulin receptor substrate (IRS) 1, which has been proposed to serve as a docking protein for other molecules involved in signal transduction. A number of other proteins that become phosphorylated in response to insulin have been identified, some of which are reported to be tissue-specific. A 60 kDa phosphoprotein has been detected in adipocytes after insulin stimulation [Lavan and Lienhard (1993) J. Biol. Chem. 268, 5921-5928]. We have identified a protein of similar molecular mass in rat hepatoma cells transfected with the human insulin receptor. The 60 kDa protein in hepatoma cells is tyrosine-phosphorylated in response to insulin in a dose-dependent manner, with maximal phosphorylation occurring at 50 nM insulin. Although the dose-response of p60 phosphorylation mirrors that of IRS-1, the time course is slightly slower, with maximal phosphorylation observed 5 min after addition of insulin. Like the adipocyte protein, the 60 kDa protein detected in liver cells binds to the SH2 domain of the p85 regulatory subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, but not to other SH2 domains. Binding of p60 to p85 is similar to the interaction between p85 and IRS-1 in that a tyrosine-phosphorylated peptide containing the YVXM motif can inhibit the association. The presence of this 60 kDa tyrosine-phosphorylated protein in adipocytes and hepatoma cells suggests that it represents another important intermediate in the insulin-receptor signal-transduction pathway.

Abstract
The fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe has no detectable endogenous receptor tyrosine kinases or associated signalling apparatus, and we have used this cell system to reconstitute mammalian platelet-derived growth factor beta (PDGF beta) receptor-linked activation of phospholipase C gamma 2 (PLC gamma 2). The PDGF beta receptor migrates as a glycosylated protein of 165 kDa associated exclusively with membrane fractions. No tyrosine autophosphorylation was detected when PDGF beta was expressed alone. PLC gamma 2 appears as a 140-kDa protein distributed between particulate and soluble fractions which exhibits characteristic selectivity for phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate and is sensitive to powerful activation by Ca2+. When coexpressed, both PDGF beta and PLC gamma 2 undergo tyrosine phosphorylation, and this is accompanied by a > 26-fold increase in [3H]inositol 4,5-biphosphate ([3H]IP2) and [3H]inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate [3H]IP3 production. Treatment with the tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor pervanadate further increased PLC gamma 2 tyrosine phosphorylation as well as [3H]IP2 and [3H]IP3 generation. Phosphorylated PLC gamma 2 was found predominantly in membrane fractions. To test a nonreceptor tyrosine kinase, we then expressed the human proto-oncogene c-src together with its negative regulator Csk. These were immunodetectable as bands at 60 kDa (c-Src) and 50 kDa (Csk) and distributed between membrane and cytosolic fractions. When yeast coexpressing c-Src, Csk, and PLC gamma 2 was incubated with pervanadate, PLC gamma 2 was tyrosine phosphorylated and [3H]IP2 and [3H]IP3 production increased 11.0- and 7.0-fold, respectively. Csk expressed alone with PLC gamma 2 was ineffective. Similar PLC gamma 2 activation was observed upon in vitro mixing with the extracts expressing either c-Src or the PDGF beta receptor. In summary, this is the first report of a reconstitution of mammalian tyrosine kinase-linked effector activation in yeast cells and also the first demonstration of direct PLC gamma 2 activation by the proto-oncogene c-src. These observations indicate that S. pombe provides a powerful cell system in which to study critical molecular interactions and activities underlying receptor and nonreceptor tyrosine kinase-dependent cell signaling.

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