Abstract
The three genes hTAF(II)68, EWS, and TLS (called the TET family) encode related RNA binding proteins containing an RNA recognition motif and three glycine-, arginine-, and proline-rich regions in the C-terminus and a degenerated repeat containing the consensus sequence Ser-Tyr-Gly-Gln-Ser in the N-terminus. In many human cancers, the N-terminal portion of hTAF(II)68, EWS, or TLS is fused to the DNA binding domain of one of several transcription factors including Fli-1, ERG, ETV1, E1AF, WT1, ATF-1, CHOP, or TEC. We have recognized the presence of several potential tyrosine phosphorylation sites within the amino-terminal domain of hTAF(II)68 and have investigated the potential effects of cytoplasmic signaling on hTAF(II)68 function. Herein, we find that hTAF(II)68 is phosphorylated on tyrosine residue(s) by ectopic expression of v-Src protein tyrosine kinase in vitro and in vivo. The hTAF(II)68 protein can associated with the SH3 domains of several cell signaling proteins, including v-Src protein tyrosine kinase. We also document that full-length v-Src can stimulate hTAF(II)68-mediated transcriptional activation, whereas deletion mutants of v-Src are unable to exert this effect. In addition, cellular Src activity appears important for hTAF(II)68 function since hTAF(II)68-mediated transactivation is reduced in a dose-dependent fashion by ectopic overexpression of a dominant-negative mutant of Src. Taken together, our results suggest that the biological activities of hTAF(II)68 are linked to the cytoplasmic Src signal transduction pathway.

Abstract
Tyrosine phosphorylation of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) creates a high-affinity binding site for the src homology 2 domain of the Src family of tyrosine kinases. Assembly of a complex between FAK and Src kinases may serve to regulate the subcellular localization and the enzymatic activity of members of the Src family of kinases. We show that simultaneous overexpression of FAK and pp60(c-src) or p59(fyn) results in the enhancement of the tyrosine phosphorylation of a limited number of cellular substrates, including paxillin. Under these conditions, tyrosine phosphorylation of paxillin is largely cell adhesion dependent. FAK mutants defective for Src binding or focal adhesion targeting fail to cooperate with pp60(c-src) or p59(fyn) to induce paxillin phosphorylation, whereas catalytically defective FAK mutants can direct paxillin phosphorylation. The negative regulatory site of pp60(c-src) is hypophosphorylated when in complex with FAK, and coexpression with FAK leads to a redistribution of pp60(c-src) from a diffuse cellular location to focal adhesions. A FAK mutant defective for Src binding does not effectively induce the translocation of pp60(c-src) to focal adhesions. These results suggest that association with FAK can alter the localization of Src kinases and that FAK functions to direct phosphorylation of cellular substrates by recruitment of Src kinases.

Abstract
c-Src kinase was activated when either murine NIH3T3 fibroblast cells or immunoprecipitated c-Src proteins were treated with nitric oxide generator, S-nitroso-N-acetyl penicillamine (SNAP) or sodium nitroprusside. Nitric oxide (NO) scavenger hemoglobin and N(2)O(3) scavenger homocysteine abolished the SNAP-mediated c-Src kinase activation. Phosphoamino acid analysis and peptide mapping of in vitro labeled phospho-c-Src proteins revealed that SNAP promoted the autophosphorylation at tyrosine, which preferentially took place at Tyr-416. Peptide mapping of in vivo labeled c-Src kinase excluded the involvement of phospho-Tyr-527 dephosphorylation in the SNAP-mediated activation mechanism. Correspondingly, protein-tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor Na(3)VO(4) did not abolish the SNAP-mediated activation of Src kinase, and the constitutively activated v-Src kinase was also further up-regulated in activity by SNAP. SNAP, however, failed to up-regulate the kinase activity of Phe-416 mutant v-Src. 2-Mercaptoethanol or dithiothreitol, which should disrupt N(2)O(3)-mediated S-nitrosylation and subsequent formation of the S-S bond, abolished the up-regulated catalytic activity, and the activity was regained after re-exposing the enzyme to SNAP. Exposure of Src kinase to SNAP promoted both autophosphorylation and S-S bond-mediated aggregation of the kinase molecules, demonstrating a linkage between the two events. These results suggest that the NO/N(2)O(3)-provoked S-nitrosylation/S-S bond formation destabilizes the Src structure for Tyr-416 autophosphorylation-associated activation bypassing the Tyr-527-linked regulation.

Abstract
Activation of the cellular Src tyrosine kinase depends upon dephosphorylation of the carboxyl-terminal inhibitory tyrosine phosphorylation site. Herein we show that Src isolated from human platelets and Jurkat T cells is preferentially dephosphorylated at its inhibitory phosphotyrosine site by the SHP-1 tyrosine phosphatase. The data also revealed association of Src with SHP-1 in both platelets and lymphocytes and the capacity of Src to phosphorylate SHP-1 and interact with the SHP-1 NH2-terminal SH2 domain in vitro. Analysis of Src activity in thymocytes from SHP-1-deficient motheaten and viable motheaten mice revealed this kinase activity to be substantially lower than that detected in wild-type thymocytes, but to be enhanced by in vitro exposure to SHP-1. Similarly, immunoblotting analysis of thymocyte Src expression before and after selective depletion of active Src protein indicated that the proportion of active relative to inactive Src protein is markedly reduced in motheaten compared with wild-type cells. These observations, together with the finding of reduced Src activity in HEY cells expressing a dominant negative form of SHP-1, provide compelling evidence that SHP-1 functions include the positive regulation of Src activation.

Abstract
Chk/Hyl is a recently isolated non-receptor tyrosine kinase with greatest homology to a ubiquitous negative regulator of Src family kinases, Csk. To understand the significance of co-expression of Chk and Csk in platelets, we examined the subcellular localization of each protein. Chk, but not Csk, was completely translocated from the Triton X-100-soluble to the Triton X-100-insoluble cytoskeletal fraction within 10 s of thrombin stimulation. Chk and Lyn, but not Csk and c-Src, co-fractionated in the higher density lysate fractions of resting platelets, with Chk being found to localize close to CD36 (membrane glycoprotein IV)-anchored Lyn. The kinase activity of co-fractionated Lyn was suppressed 3-fold. In vitro phosphorylation assays showed that Chk suppressed Lyn activity by phosphorylating its C-terminal negative regulatory tyrosine. Upon stimulation of platelets with thrombin, the rapid and complete translocation of Chk away from Lyn caused concomitant activation of Lyn. This activation was accompanied by dephosphorylation of Lyn at its C-terminal negative regulatory tyrosine in cooperation with a protein tyrosine phosphatase. These results suggest that Chk, but not Csk, may function as a translocation-controlled negative regulator of CD36-anchored Lyn in thrombin-induced platelet activation.

Abstract
Little is known about the regulatory mechanism of c-Src kinase in cells except the suggested regulation through phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of its carboxyl terminal tyrosine residue (Y527). We here demonstrated that exposure of NIH3T3 cells to mercuric chloride (HgCl2) induces both aggregation and activation of Src kinase protein through a redox-linked mechanism. The aggregation of Src proteins was suggested to be induced by the sulfhydryl groups-to-Hg2+ reaction-mediated polymerization of cell membrane proteins to which the Src proteins associate noncovalently. The possibility was ruled out that the aggregation occurred secondarily to the promotion of protein tyrosine phosphorylation. Further study revealed that the Src kinase was activated by HgCl2 at least in part independent of the known Csk kinase-linked or Y527-phosphorylation/dephosphorylation-mediated control. Correspondingly, CNBr cleavage mapping of phosphopeptides for autophosphorylated c-Src protein demonstrated selective promotion of phosphorylation at Y416 in HgCl2-treated cells without obvious change in the phosphorylation level at Y527. These results suggest a unique protein sulfhydryl modification-based pathway of signal transduction for activating Src kinase in NIH3T3 cells.

Abstract
The COOH-terminal Src kinase (Csk) is responsible for the phosphorylation of the conserved, negative regulatory, carboxyl-terminal tyrosine of most of the Src family protein tyrosine kinases. Up to now, no stable binding of Csk to Src kinases has been detected. We therefore decided to analyze this interaction using two systems which allow detection of transient interaction. We produced and purified recombinant proteins in the glutathione S-transferase prokaryotic expression system. First, using real-time biospecific interaction analysis (BIAcore(TM)), we detected in vitro a specific interaction between Csk and one of its substrates Lck, a lymphocyte-specific member of the Src family. This interaction requires the autophosphorylation of Lck on tyrosine 394 (the phosphorylation of which is correlated with an increase of the kinase activity) and involves a functional Csk SH2 domain. Second, using the yeast two-hybrid system, we confirmed in vivo the physical interaction between Csk and Lck. Furthermore, in vitro we showed that autophosphorylation of Lck on tyrosine 394 enhances the phosphorylation of Lck by Csk on the negative regulatory site, tyrosine 505, suggesting that activated Lck serves preferentially as substrate for Csk. These findings might explain the mechanism(s) by which Csk interacts with most of Src kinases to down-regulate their kinase activity.

Abstract
The Src homology 2 (SH2) and Src homology 3 (SH3) domain are approximately 50% conserved in various Src family kinase members. Several lines of evidence suggest that in Src these domains are sequence motifs that direct substrate recognition, regulate kinase activity, or control subcellular localization. We sought to investigate the function of the homology domains in human Lyn, and to determine whether the differences between various SH3 domains affect function. To do this, we generated variant forms of Lyn lacking SH2 and SH3 domains, and created chimeras in which the SH3 domains in human c-Src and Lyn were replaced with SH3 domains from other family members. In contrast to similar deletions in Src, forms of Lyn lacking SH2 or SH3 had decreased kinase activity. The SH3 chimeras all had individual characteristics. Insertion of the Blk SH3 domain into Lyn restored kinase activity, while insertion of the Fyn or Src SH3 into Lyn enhanced the kinase activity 2-3-fold. Insertion of the Lyn SH3 into Src also doubled kinase activity. Expression of the Lyn-Src SH3 chimera in mammalian cells induced cell transformation. This study 1) demonstrates that the regulation of Lyn is different than Src, and 2) provides new evidence that despite their homology, there are important functional differences between the SH3 domains of the various Src family members.

Abstract
pp60c-src kinase activity can be increased by phosphotyrosine dephosphorylation or growth factor-dependent phosphorylation reactions. Expression of the transmembrane phosphotyrosine phosphatase (PTPase) CD45 has been shown to inhibit growth factor receptor signal transduction (Mooney, RA, Freund, GG, Way, BA and Bordwell, KL (1992) J Biol Chem 267, 23443-23446). Here it is shown that PTPase expression decreased platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-dependent activation of pp60c-src but failed to increase hormone independent (basal) pp60c-src activity. PDGF-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation of its receptor was reduced by approximately 60% in cells expressing the PTPase. In contrast, a change in phosphotyrosine content of pp60c-src was not detected in response to PDGF or in PTPase+ cells. PDGF increased the intrinsic tyrosine kinase activity of pp60c-src in both control and PTPase+ cells, but the effect was smaller in PTPase+ cells. In an in vitro assay, hormone-stimulated pp60c-src autophosphorylation from PTPase+ cells was decreased 64 +/- 22%, and substrate phosphorylation by pp60c-src was reduced 54 +/- 16% compared to controls. Hormone-independent pp60c-src kinase activity was unchanged by expression of the PTPase. pp60c-src was, however, an in vitro substrate for CD45, being dephosphorylated at both the regulatory (Tyr527) and kinase domain (Tyr416) residues. In addition, in vitro dephosphorylation by CD45 increased pp60c-src activity. These findings suggest that the PDGF receptor was an in vivo substrate of CD45 but pp60c-src was not. The lack of activation of pp60c-src in the presence of expressed PTPase may demonstrate the importance of compartmentalization and/or accessory proteins to PTPase-substrate interactions.

Abstract
A rapid method for identifying and characterizing sites of phosphorylation of peptides and proteins is described. High-performance capillary liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled with electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) is used to distinguish non-phosphorylated and phosphorylated peptides originating from mixtures as complex as enzyme digests. The method relies on the ability to produce a fragment ion characteristic and unique to phosphopeptides (m/z 79, PO3) by stepping the orifice potential of the mass spectrometer as a function of mass. At low m/z values, a high orifice potential is applied to induce extensive fragmentation of the peptide, leading to the formation of the m/z 79 phosphate-derived ion. This method is analogous to that described by Carr et al. for the identification of glycopeptides from enzymatic digestion of glycoproteins (S.A. Carr, M.J. Huddleston, M.F. Bean, Protein Science 2, 183 (1993)). The method was first evaluated and validated for a mixture of non-, mono- and di-phosphorylated synthetic peptides. Both mono- and di-phosphorylated peptides were found to generate fragment ions characteristic of PO3 whereas the non-phosphorylated peptide did not. Application of the method was extended to identifying phosphopeptides generated from an endoprotease Lys-C digestion of beta-casein. Both the expected mono- and tetra-phosphorylated Lys-C peptides were observed and identified rapidly in the LC/SEI-MS analysis. The procedure was used additionally to identify the site(s) of phosphorylation of the cytosolic non-receptor tyrosine kinase, pp60(c-src).

Abstract
Myristoylation of pp60src is required for its membrane attachment and transforming activity. The mouse monoclonal antibody, mAb327, which recognizes both normal, myristoylated pp60c-src and a nonmyristoylated mutant, pp60c-src/myr-, has been used to compare the effects of preventing myristoylation on the localization of c-Src in NIH 3T3-derived overexpresser cells using immunofluorescence microscopy. During interphase, pp60c-src partitions between the plasma membrane and the centrosome, while pp60c-src/myr- is predominantly cytoplasmic but also partly nuclear. The cytoplasmic, but not the nuclear, staining can be readily washed out by brief pretritonization of the cells before fixation, indicating that the cytoplasmic pool of pp60c-src/myr-, in contrast with the nuclear one, does not associate tightly with structures that are insoluble in the presence of nonionic detergents. We have previously shown that during G2 phase, pp60c-src leaves the plasma membrane and is redistributed diffusely throughout the cytoplasm and to two clusters of patches surrounding the two separating centriole pairs. In contrast, we now find that pp60c-src/myr- translocates to the nucleus in late G2 or early prophase prior to there being any clear evidence of nuclear membrane breakdown or nuclear lamina disassembly. Similar nuclear translocation of pp60c-src/myr-, but not of pp60c-src, is also observed when cells are arrested in G0 or at the G1/S transition. Furthermore, during mitosis, pp60c-src is found primarily in diffuse and patchy structures dispersed throughout the cytoplasm while pp60c-src/myr- more specifically associates with the main components of the spindle apparatus (poles and fibers) and inside the interchromosomal space. These results suggest that a possible role for myristoylation might be to prevent unregulated nuclear transport of proteins whose nonmyristoylated counterparts are readily moved into the nucleus. They also raise the possibility that a subfraction of wild-type pp60c-src may behave, at specific times, like its nonmyristoylated counterpart, and may translocate to the nucleus and exert specific functions in that location.

Abstract
All Src family non-receptor tyrosine kinases are negatively regulated by phosphorylation at a carboxy-terminal tyrosine. To analyze the significance of this regulation during development, we have generated mice deficient in Csk, a kinase that phosphorylates this tyrosine, by gene targeting in embryonic stem cells. Homozygous mutant embryos exhibit a complex phenotype that includes defects in the neural tube and die between day 9 and day 10 of gestation. Cells derived from these embryos exhibit an order of magnitude increase in activity of Src and the related Fyn kinase. Phosphorylation at the carboxy-terminal tyrosine of Src was reduced but not eliminated and was accompanied by increased phosphorylation at another key tyrosine residue. These results demonstrate that Src family kinase activity is critically dependent on phosphorylation by Csk and suggest that the regulation of kinase activity may be essential during embryogenesis.

Abstract
Csk is a novel cytoplasmic protein-tyrosine kinase that has been shown to inactivate members of the Src family of protein-tyrosine kinases in vitro. To examine the function of Csk in vivo, Csk-deficient mouse embryos were generated by gene targeting in embryonic stem cells. These embryos were developmentally arrested at the 10 to 12 somite stage and exhibited growth retardation and necrosis in the neural tissues. The kinase activity of p60c-src, p59fyn, and p53/56lyn in these embryos was greatly enhanced as an apparent consequence of enhanced specific activity. The increase in kinase activity was associated with an increase in tyrosine phosphorylation of several proteins, especially those around 85 and 120 kd. Thus, these results suggest that Csk indeed acts as an indispensable negative regulator of Src family kinases in vivo.

Abstract
Triggering of the T cell antigen receptor/CD3 (TcR/CD3) complex leads to rapid tyrosine phosphorylation of regulatory proteins that participate in initiating T cell activation and proliferation. This signal transduction event requires the presence of the TcR/CD3-associated protein tyrosine kinase p59fyn. There is also evidence that the CD45 phosphotyrosine phosphatase is involved in TcR/CD3 signalling. We show here by capping experiments using double indirect immunofluorescence techniques that the receptor phosphotyrosine phosphatase CD45 and the intracellular protein tyrosine kinase p59fyn specifically co-distribute in functional T lymphocytes. Furthermore, we provide evidence that isolated p59fyn is a substrate for CD45 as indicated by the rapid dephosphorylation of the regulatory Tyr531 of p59fyn by CD45. This dephosphorylation is accompanied by a severalfold increase in the catalytic activity of p59fyn as measured by its autophosphorylation and phosphorylation of an exogenous substrate. We also demonstrate that CD45-mediated dephosphorylation and activation of p59fyn apparently occurs at a slow basal rate in resting T cells. This represents the first identification of a physiologic regulator of p59fyn and implies a mechanism for the role of CD45 in TcR/CD3 signal transduction.

Abstract
The protein-tyrosine kinase activity of the proto-oncogene product p60c-src is negatively regulated by the phosphorylation of a tyrosine residue close to the C terminus, tyrosine 527. The phosphorylation might be catalysed by a so-far-unidentified tyrosine kinase, distinct from p60c-src. Recently we purified a protein-tyrosine kinase that specifically phosphorylates tyrosine 527 of p60c-src from neonatal rat brain. We have now confirmed the specificity of this enzyme by using a mutant p60c-src that has a phenylalanine instead of tyrosine 527, and cloned a complementary DNA that encodes the enzyme. The enzyme is similar to kinases of the src family in that it has two conserved regions, Src-homology regions 2 and 3, upstream of a tyrosine kinase domain. The amino-acid identity of each region is no more than 47%, however, and the enzyme lacks phosphorylation sites corresponding to tyrosines 416 and 527 of p60c-src and has no myristylation signal. These results suggest that this protein-tyrosine kinase, which might negatively regulate p60c-src, represents a new type of tyrosine kinase.

Abstract
The tyrosine kinasee activity of p60c-src, the protein product of the c-src gene, increases during mitosis; this may be important in initiating at least some of the cellular changes that occur during this phase of the cell cycle. Although there is evidence that p60c-src is phosphorylated at several sites during mitosis, phosphorylation in vitro does not increase its kinase activity. We now report that the kinase activity of a p60c-src mutant with residue tyrosine 527 changed to phenylanine does not change during the cell cycle, suggesting that changes in the phosphorylation state of this residue may be responsible for the activation of p60c-src at mitosis. Although changes in phosphorylation at Tyr 527 cannot be detected with the wild-type protein we find that phosphorylation at Tyr 527 of a mutant with reduced kinase activity decreases threefold during mitosis. On the basis of these results we suggest that activation of p60c-src at mitosis results from decreased phosphorylation on Tyr 527, and that p60c-src may be or may activate the kinase that phosphorylates Tyr 527.

Abstract
We investigated the effects of genistein, an inhibitor of tyrosine protein phosphorylation, on mouse 1-cell embryos, since in response to mitogenic stimuli tyrosine protein phosphorylation in somatic cells is implicated in initiation of DNA synthesis. Genistein inhibits cleavage of 1-cell embryos in a concentration-dependent and reversible manner; biochanin A, which is a less potent inhibitor of tyrosine protein phosphorylation, is a less potent inhibitor of cell cleavage. Genistein does not inhibit [35S]methionine incorporation, but does inhibit [3H]thymidine incorporation. Consistent with genistein's ability to inhibit cleavage by inhibiting DNA synthesis is that the loss of genistein's ability to inhibit cleavage corresponds with exit of the 1-cell embryos from S phase. Genistein is likely to inhibit tyrosine protein phosphorylation in situ, since it reduces by 80% the relative amount of [32P]phosphotyrosine present in 1-cell embryos; genistein does not inhibit either [32P]orthophosphate uptake or incorporation. As anticipated, genistein has little effect on inhibiting changes in the pattern of phosphoprotein synthesis during the first cell cycle, since tyrosine protein phosphorylation constitutes a small percentage of total protein phosphorylation. Alkalai treatment of [32P]radiolabeled phosphoproteins transferred to Immobilon reveals a base-resistant set of phosphoproteins of Mr = 32,000 that displays cell-cycle changes in phosphorylation. Although these properties suggest that these phosphoproteins may be related to the p34cdc2 protein kinase, phosphoamino acid analysis of [32P]radiolabeled phosphoproteins reveals that they are not enriched for phosphotyrosine; the inactive for p34cdc2 protein kinase contains a high level of phosphotyrosine. Results of these experiments suggest that tyrosine protein phosphorylation in response to the fertilizing sperm may be involved in initiating DNA synthesis in the 1-cell embryo, as well as converting a meiotic cell cycle to a mitotic one.

Abstract
To investigate the functions of key domains of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), various EGFR-derived peptide sequences were expressed in Escherichia coli as glutathione S-transferase (GST) fusion proteins. The purified fusion proteins (GST-TK0-8) were tested as substrates for the tyrosine kinase activities of the EGFR and c-src. Both the GST-TK4 fusion protein, which contains the major C-terminal tyrosine autophosphorylation sites of the EGFR, and GST-TK7, which contains the connecting sequence between the EGFR kinase domain and the C-terminal autophosphorylation domain, were strongly phosphorylated by the EGFR and c-src. Hence the candidate tyrosine phosphorylation sites present in the connecting sequences of the EGFR, as well as the known autophosphorylation sites of the EGFR, can be phosphorylated by the two tyrosine kinases. The protein GST-TK7 was phosphorylated by c-src with a KM of 5-10 microM, which indicated a potential interaction between the connecting segment of the EGFR and the c-src kinase. The GST fusion proteins were also used to map the sites recognized by two anti-EGFR monoclonal antibodies and a polyclonal serum raised against an EGFR tyrosine kinase domain fragment. The recognition site of one monoclonal antibody was determined to be in a short sequence surrounding tyr1068, a primary site of autophosphorylation in the C-terminal domain of the receptor. The anti-peptide polyclonal serum recognized only sequences in the GST-TK7 fusion protein, and hence binds to the connecting sequence between the kinase core and the C-terminal domain. These antibodies will therefore be useful reagents for studying the function of two key structural elements of the EGFR tyrosine kinase. The GST-TK fusion proteins should have many other applications in the study of EGFR catalysis and mitogenic signalling.

Abstract
We have previously shown that overexpressed chicken pp60c-src has retarded mobility, novel serine/threonine phosphorylation, and enhanced kinase activity during NIH 3T3 cell mitosis. Here we show that novel mitotic phosphorylations occur at Thr 34, Thr 46, and Ser 72. The possibility, previously raised, that Ser 17 is dephosphorylated during mitosis is excluded. The phosphorylated sites lie in consensus sequences for phosphorylation by p34cdc2, the catalytic component of maturation promoting factor (MPF). Furthermore, highly purified MPF from metaphase-arrested Xenopus eggs phosphorylated both wild-type and kinase-defective pp60c-src at these sites. Altered phosphorylation alone is sufficient to account for the large retardation in mitotic pp60c-src electrophoretic mobility: phosphorylation of normal pp60c-src by MPF retarded mobility and dephosphorylation of mitotic pp60c-src restored normal mobility. These results suggest that pp60c-src is one of the targets for MPF action, which may account in part for the pleiotropic changes in protein phosphorylation and cellular architecture that occur during mitosis.
