Shb is a ubiquitously expressed Src homology 2 protein.

To identify serum-inducible genes in the insulin-producing cell line beta TC-1, a library subtraction screening procedure was performed on serum-deprived (G0) and serum-restimulated (G1) insulin-producing beta TC-1 cells. A cDNA containing a motif with strong homology to Src homology 2 (SH2) domains was found using this procedure and called Shb. The Shb cDNA contains two methionine codons in its N-terminus and thus may code for two proteins of 67 and 56 kDa, each with one SH2 domain in its C-terminus. No other structural similarity to proteins with catalytic activity could be detected, suggesting that Shb is a so called adaptor. Shb contains the proline-rich sequence PPPGPGR between the two proposed initiator methionines which resembles a sequence for binding to Src homology 3 (SH3) domains. A second proline-rich sequence was detected after the second methionine codon. The Shb cDNA hybridized to a similar or identical mRNA of 3.1 kb expressed in mouse brain, liver, kidney, heart, NIH3T3 fibroblasts and beta TC-1 cells. Western blot analysis of the same tissues using an antiserum directed against a synthetic peptide corresponding to a part of the SH2 domain of Shb, revealed reactivity with two proteins of 56 and 67 kDa. In addition, a third reactive component of 40 kDa was detected in most tissues. Transfection and transient expression of the Shb cDNA in COS-1 cells yielded increased expression of the 67, 56 and 40 kDa proteins. Transfection and stable expression of the Shb cDNA in pig aortic endothelial cells showed increased expression primarily of the 67 kDa protein. A fusion protein consisting of the SH2 domain of Shb linked to glutathione S-transferase showed increased binding to glycoproteins of cells stimulated with platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF-BB). Furthermore, the autophosphorylated PDGF beta-receptor but not the autophosphorylated epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor bound specifically to immobilized fusion protein. It is concluded that Shb is a novel SH2-containing protein with proline-rich domains and therefore probably involved in the signal-transduction of some ligand-activated tyrosine kinase receptors.

Morphf mutants of Rous sarcoma virus: nucleotide sequencing analysis suggests that a class of morphf mutants was generated through splicing of a cryptic intron.

The nature of the lesions involved in producing the fusiform phenotype of three mutants (WO101, WO201, and tsST529) of the Schmidt-Ruppin A strain of Rous sarcoma virus (RSV) was determined by molecular cloning and DNA sequencing. WO101 and WO201 contained an in-frame deletion of the v-src region coding for amino acids 116 to 140 of p60v-src. The deleted segment was flanked by consensus splice donor and acceptor sequences and contained an appropriately positioned branchpoint acceptor consensus sequence, suggesting that the deletion occurred through an aberrant RNA splicing event. S1 mapping experiments performed on RNA isolated from chicken cells infected with molecularly cloned wild-type RSV DNA suggested that the splice acceptor involved in the generation of this deletion was utilized at a low frequency (less than 1.0%) in wild-type RSV-infected cells. These results suggested that stable mutations may have arisen in the coding sequence of a eucaryotic viral transforming gene as a result of a probable aberrant RNA splicing event followed by reverse transcription into DNA. ST529 was found to harbor the same deletion present in WO101 and WO201 but also contained a point mutation which resulted in the substitution of lysine for glutamic acid at position 93. This change and the resulting large change in local charge were presumably required for the temperature-sensitive transformation phenotype of ST529. These results, together with other known deletions that produce fusiform mutants, suggested that a region within the amino-terminal one-third coding region of the src gene contributed to a structural domain of p60v-src that was important for controlling some morphological parameters of transformation in cells infected with RSV.

Norepinephrine specifically stimulates ribonucleotide reductase subunit R2 gene expression in proliferating brown adipocytes: mediation via a cAMP/PKA pathway involving Src and Erk1/2 kinases.

We have examined whether a qualitative switch occurs in the response of the ribonucleotide reductase (RNR) genes to the effect of the physiological cAMP-elevating agent norepinephrine (NE) during the development of brown adipocytes. Basal expression of the genes for both RNR subunits, R1 and R2, was high in proliferating cells, but was markedly down-regulated in parallel with adipocyte differentiation. NE stimulation, which promotes DNA synthesis and proliferation of brown preadipocytes, resulted in an increased expression of the R2 gene in proliferating cells (1.6-fold), but was without effect on R1 expression. In contrast, NE stimulation of confluent differentiating brown adipocytes reduced both R1 and R2 expression. The NE stimulation of R2 expression in preadipocytes was mimicked by forskolin and abolished by H89, demonstrating mediation via cAMP and protein kinase A (PKA). Also, inhibitors of Src and of Erk1/2 kinases markedly reduced NE-stimulated R2 expression. We conclude that adrenergic stimulation of brown adipocytes by NE specifically elevates expression of the RNR subunit R2 gene in the proliferative stage of brown adipocyte development, the mediating pathway being a cAMP/PKA cascade further involving Src and the MAP kinase Erk1/2. These results suggest that adrenergic stimulation of brown adipocyte proliferation may act at the level of gene expression of the limiting subunit for RNR activity, R2, and demonstrate a qualitative switch in the response of the R2 gene to cAMP-elevating agents as a consequence of the switch from proliferating to differentiating cell status.

Genes responsible for transformation by avian RNA tumor viruses.

Avian sarcoma viruses probably contain 4 genes. One of these, src, controls the process of transformation of the infected cell and has been located near the 3' end of the viral genome. The remaining 3 genes direct the synthesis of virion proteins: env (envelope proteins), pol (polymerase), and gag (internal proteins). They are probably in the order gag-poly-env-src. A scheme for the replication of these viruses is proposed, and several possible mechanisms for their origin and variability are discussed.

Overexpression of c-src enhances beta-adrenergic-induced cAMP accumulation.

During our investigations into the physiological role of c-src tyrosine kinase in normal cells, we found that clonal transfectants of C3H10T1/2 murine fibroblasts overexpressing chicken c-src exhibited strikingly elevated levels of cAMP accumulation in response to adrenergic stimulation as compared to control cells. Enhanced cAMP accumulations were detected when cells were treated with the beta-agonists, epinephrine, isoproterenol, or terbutaline and were blocked by treatment with the beta-specific antagonist propranolol, indicating action through beta-adrenergic receptors. The hyperresponsiveness was not observed in cells overexpressing kinase-defective c-src. No differences in basal levels of cAMP, agonist concentration dependence, or kinetics of cAMP accumulation were detected between cells containing elevated levels of wild-type or kinase-defective c-src protein and control cells. To determine if the degree of c-src overexpression could influence the response, multiple clones, transfected with DNA encoding genes for wild-type or kinase-defective c-src plus neomycin resistance or neomycin resistance alone, were derived in parallel and assayed for the amounts of c-src protein produced and the levels of cAMP accumulated in response to epinephrine. Only clones with abundant wild-type c-src protein (greater than 10-fold above endogenous) exhibited enhanced cAMP accumulation, averaging 3.3-fold above control cells. We conclude, therefore, that the enhanced degree of cAMP accumulation in cells overexpressing c-src is dependent upon activation of beta-adrenergic receptors and upon a threshold level of pp60c-src that retains full tyrosine kinase activity.

Src activation in malignant and premalignant epithelia of Barrett's esophagus.

BACKGROUND & AIMS: The neoplastic progression of Barrett's esophagus (BE) may involve genomic instability, inactivation of tumor suppressor genes, or activation of oncogenes. Because activation of Src tyrosine kinase occurs in malignant and premalignant epithelia of the colon, the aim of this study was to determine whether BE is associated with changes in Src expression and activity. METHODS: Src expression and in vitro protein-tyrosine kinase activity in endoscopic tissue samples of BE and esophageal adenocarcinoma were measured and compared with expression and activity in normal esophagus and duodenum from the same patient. Src phosphorylation was assessed by immunoblotting using antiphosphotyrosine antibodies and two-dimensional tryptic phosphopeptide mapping. RESULTS: Src-specific activity was 3-4 fold higher in BE and 6-fold higher in esophageal adenocarcinoma than in control tissues. Different regions of BE from the same patient showed heterogeneity in Src activity compared with the uniform Src activity observed in different regions of normal esophagus and duodenum. In all tissues, Src kinase activity and protein were associated preferentially with the Triton X-100-soluble rather than-insoluble fraction. Immunoblotting and two-dimensional tryptic phosphopeptide mapping showed dephosphorylation of Src at Tyr527 in BE. CONCLUSIONS: Src is activated in BE, in part, because of dephosphorylation of Tyr527. Src activation and its heterogeneous expression occur before development of dysplasia or carcinoma in BE.

A Src family inhibitor (PP1) potentiates tumor-suppressive effect of connexin 32 gene in renal cancer cells.

Connexin (Cx) genes exert negative growth effects on tumor cells with certain cell specificity. We have recently reported that Cx32 acts as a tumor suppressor gene in renal cancer cells due to the inhibition of Src-dependent signaling. In line with the previous study, here we examined if a Src family inhibitor (PP1) could potentiate tumor-suppressive effect of Cx32 in Caki-2 cell from human renal cell carcinoma. In order to clarify the potentialization of PP1, using Cx32-transfected Caki-2 cells and mock-transfected Caki-2 cells, we estimated difference in cytotoxic effect of PP1 on the two cell clones in vitro as well as in vivo. PP1 showed more cytotoxic effect on Caki-2 cells having Cx32 positive expression than that of Cx32 negative expression at lower doses. This potentialization was also observed in xenograft model of nude mice. The potentialization of the effect mainly depended on the induction of apoptosis but not the control of cell growth. In conjugation with this event, the reduction of anti-apoptotic molecules (Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL) was caused by the combination of Cx32 expression and PP1 treatment in Caki-2 cells. These results suggest that PP1 potentiates tumor-suppressive effect of connexin 32 gene in renal cancer cells through the reduction of anti-apoptotic molecules.

Pattern of expression of five alternative transcripts of the lck gene in different hematopoietic malignancies: correlation of the level of lck messenger RNA I B with the immature phenotype of the malignancy.

The lck gene encodes a tyrosine protein kinase of the src family which is highly expressed in T-lymphocytes. Two widely separated promoters govern expression of the lck gene. We report in this study that alternative splicing between cryptic donor and acceptor sites in the 5' untranslated region of the transcripts initiated at the type I promoter give rise to three different type I lck mRNAs, I A, I B, and I C. Altogether with the types II A and II B reported previously, the lck transcription is thus characterized by five alternative transcripts. We further used the complementary DNA-polymerase chain reaction assay to describe the pattern of expression of these five lck transcripts in different hematopoietic cell lines and in blood or bone marrow samples from healthy donors and leukemic patients. We report that the transcript II A is by far the major transcript present both in human samples and in T-cell lines. The low lck expression in B-cell lines is characterized by the quite exclusive presence of the transcript I B. We show that hematopoietic diseases characterized by the presence of immature cells [acute myeloid leukemia (AML-0 and AML-1) and T- and B-cell acute lymphoid leukemia] exhibit a marked increase of the transcript I B. No significant difference from the normal pattern is observed in AML according to the differentiation stage (AML-2 to AML-5). A normal pattern of lck expression is restored in AML-0 and AML-1 patients at complete remission.

Identification of two enhancer elements in the gene encoding the type 1 glucose transporter from the mouse which are responsive to serum, growth factor, and oncogenes.

The type 1 glucose transporter (GLUT1) gene encodes an integral membrane glycoprotein responsible for facilitating transfer of glucose across plasma membrane and is rapidly activated by serum, growth factors, and by oncogenic transformation. To elucidate the molecular mechanisms of regulation of GLUT1 gene expression, we isolated and characterized the mouse GLUT1 gene. DNA elements regulating transcription of the gene were analyzed in transient expression assays after transfection of NIH/3T3 cells with a low background chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) vector system pSVOOCAT. We identified two enhancer elements; the first one is located 2.7 kilobases upstream of the cap site of the gene which contains the homologous sequences with two 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate-responsive elements (TREs), a serum response element, a cyclic AMP-responsive element (CRE) and three GC boxes, and the second one is located in the second intron of the gene which contains the homologous sequences with two TREs and one CRE. With the promoter alone the transcription of the gene is activated by src, only slightly activated by ras and is not activated by serum and platelet-derived growth factor. When the gene is accompanied by one of these enhancers, the transcription is activated by all these stimuli.

Characterization of vnr-13, the first alphaherpesvirus gene of the bcl-2 family.

The Bcl-2 family, including antiapoptotic and proapoptotic members, plays key regulating roles in programmed cell death. We report the characterization of a new member of the bcl-2 family, encoded by herpesvirus of turkeys (HVT). The product of this gene shares 80% homology with Nr-13, an apoptosis inhibitor, which is overexpressed in avian cells transformed by the v-src oncogene. This new gene, that we propose to call vnr-13, is the first member of the bcl-2 family to be isolated among alpha-herpesviruses. Results from cells expressing the HVT-vnr-13 gene product show that the encoded protein inhibits apoptosis and also reduces the rate of cellular proliferation. Contrary to all bcl-2 homologues found in gamma-herpesvirus, which are intronless, vnr-13 has the same organization as the cellular nr-13 gene. Hence, the HVT vnr-13 gene may have been acquired from a reverse transcriptase product of an unspliced precursor RNA, or via direct recombination with the host chromosomal DNA.

Mitogenesis induced by pp60v-src is not accompanied by increased expression of immediate early response genes.

Rat-1 cells infected with a temperature sensitive mutant of RSV (ts LA 29 Rat-1) can be rendered quiescent by serum deprivation at restrictive temperature. Shift to permissive conditions activates the v-src protein tyrosine kinase within 10 minutes and either this stimulus, or serum addition at restrictive temperature, leads to progression of the cell from G0 to G1, S-phase and mitosis. The effects of serum and temperature shift are not synergistic, suggesting that they may operate by convergent mechanisms. However, the characteristic serum-stimulated transient increases in transcripts of three immediate early response genes, c-fos, c-jun and c-myc are absent or much reduced when mitogenesis in ts LA 29 Rat-1 is induced by pp60v-src. Nonetheless, upon activating the pp60v-src protein kinase there is a marked and rapid increase in the ability of ts LA 29 Rat-1 nuclear extracts to retard the gel migration of oligonucleotides containing the AP-1 binding site, indicating that pp60v-src activity leads to an enhanced functioning of Fos and Jun related proteins that may, in turn, affect their transcriptional activation. Furthermore, these findings, and comparison with those of other laboratories, suggest that the mitogenic and transforming activities of pp60v-src have different effects on the transcription of immediate early response genes.

Sequential regulation of keratinocyte differentiation by 1,25(OH)2D3, VDR, and its coregulators.

Keratinocyte differentiation requires the sequential regulation of gene expression. We have explored the role of 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) and its receptor (VDR) in this process. VDR sequentially binds to coactivator complexes such as Vitamin D receptor interacting protein (DRIP) and steroid receptor coactivator (SRC) during differentiation. Different genes respond differently to the VDR/coactivator complexes as determined by knockdown studies. The binding of DRIP205 and SRC to VDR is ligand (i.e. 1,25(OH)(2)D(3)) dependent. LXXLL motifs in these coactivators are critical for this binding; however, the affinity for VDR of the different LXXLL motifs in these coactivators varies. Hairless is an inhibitor of 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) dependent gene transcription. A phiXXphiphi motif in hairless is crucial for hairless binding to VDR, and its binding is ligand independent. 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) displaces hairless and recruits the coactivators to VDREs. Hsp90 and p23 are chaperone proteins recruited to the DRIP/VDR complex, where they block the binding of the complex to VDREs and block 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) stimulated transcription. Thus four mechanisms explain the ability of 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) to sequentially regulate gene transcription during differentiation: changes in coregulator levels, their differential binding to VDR, differential gene responsiveness to the VDR/coregulator complexes, and chaperone proteins facilitating the cycling of VDR/coregulator complexes on and off the VDREs.

Expression of proto-oncogenes in embryonic, adult, and transformed tissue of Xiphophorus (Teleostei: Poeciliidae).

In Xiphophorus the causative, primary cellular oncogene for melanoma formation has been assigned by classical genetics to a sex-chromosomal locus, designated Tu. Activation of Tu was proposed to be the result of the elimination of Tu-specific regulatory genes which normally suppress the transforming function in the non-tumorous state. In order to understand the role which known proto-oncogenes might play in this process, we have analysed the expression of src, erb A, erb B, ras, abl, sis and mil related genes from Xiphophorus during embryogenesis, in non-tumorous organs and in melanoma cells. For src, ras, erb B and sis a differential expression during embryogenesis and/or in normal organs was detected, with preferential expression of src in neural tissues, a high abundance of sis transcripts in an embryonal epitheloid cell line and of erbB transcripts in the head nephros. In melanoma cells ras, src and a v-erb B related gene were found to be expressed. The src gene most likely is more involved in secondary processes during tumor progression, while the expression of the v-erb B related gene might be transformation-specific because recently such a sequence was found to map to the close vicinity of the Tu-locus.

Identification of Src transformation fingerprint in human colon cancer.

We used a classical rodent model of transformation to understand the transcriptional processes, and hence the molecular and cellular events a given cell undergoes when progressing from a normal to a transformed phenotype. Src activation is evident in 80% of human colon cancer, yet the myriad of cellular processes effected at the level of gene expression has yet to be fully documented. We identified a Src 'transformation fingerprint' within the gene expression profiles of Src-transformed rat 3Y1 fibroblasts demonstrating a progression in transformation characteristics. To evaluate the role of this gene set in human cancer development and progression, we extracted the orthologous genes present on the Affymetrix Hu95A GeneChip (12k named genes) and compared expression profiles between the Src-induced rodent cell line model of transformation and staged colon tumors where Src is known to be activated. A similar gene expression pattern between the cell line model and staged colon tumors for components of the cell cycle, cytoskeletal associated proteins, transcription factors and lysosomal proteins suggests the need for co-regulation of several cellular processes in the progression of cancer. Genes not previously implicated in tumorigenesis were detected, as well as a set of 14 novel, highly conserved genes with here-to-fore unknown function. These studies define a set of transformation associated genes whose up-regulation has implications for understanding Src mediated transformation and strengthens the role of Src in the development and progression of human colon cancer.

Effluviibacter roseus gen. nov., sp. nov., isolated from muddy water, belonging to the family "Flexibacteraceae".

A Gram-negative bacterial isolate (designated SRC-1(T)) was isolated from an occasional drainage system and characterized by a polyphasic approach to determine its taxonomic position. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences affiliated strain SRC-1(T) with the family "Flexibacteraceae" of the phylum Bacteroidetes. It showed greatest sequence similarity to Pontibacter actiniarum KMM 6156(T) (95.5 %) followed by Adhaeribacter aquaticus MBRG1.5(T) (89.0 %) and Hymenobacter roseosalivarius DSM 11622(T) (88.9 %), but it differed from these micro-organisms in many phenotypic characteristics. Strain SRC-1(T) was an obligate aerobe and its cells were non-motile, irregular rods. The major fatty acids included mainly unsaturated and hydroxy fatty acids, including 17 : 1 iso I/anteiso B (36.7 %), 15 : 0 iso (15.8 %) and 17 : 0 iso 3-OH (10.3 %), and the DNA G+C content was 59.5 mol%. From the phenotypic and genotypic analyses it was clear that strain SRC-1(T) was quite different from members other genera in the family '"Flexibacteraceae". Therefore we conclude that strain SRC-1(T) represents a novel genus, for which the name Effluviibacter gen. nov., containing a single species Effluviibacter roseus sp. nov., is proposed. The type species of the genus is Effluviibacter roseus, the type strain of which is strain SRC-1(T) (=MTCC 7260(T)=DSM 17521(T)).

A suboptimal src 3' splice site is necessary for efficient replication of Rous sarcoma virus.

Regulation of splicing of Rous sarcoma virus (RSV) RNA primary transcripts is necessary, as with other retroviruses, to allow for the accumulation of unspliced RNA and approximately equivalent amounts of spliced env and src mRNAs. Previous studies have indicated that the env 3' splice site is suboptimal because it has a nonconsensus branchpoint sequence and that this suboptimal splice site is required for virus replication (R. A. Katz and A. M. Skalka, 1990, Mol. Cell Biol. 10:696-704). We show in this report that the RSV src 3' splice site is also suboptimal. Mutagenesis of the src polypyrimidine-rich tract, which is interspersed with purines, to an uninterrupted 14-nt pyrimidine tract resulted in a three- to fourfold increase in the level of src splicing. Concomitant with this increase in src splicing, a cryptic 5' splice site within the env gene was activated. Splicing at this splice site is normally detected in nonpermissive mammalian cells were src splicing is elevated but occurs at low levels in permissive chicken embryo fibroblasts (CEF). In CEF, mutant viruses with the improved src 3' splice site replicated significantly slower than the wild-type virus. Transformation-defective revertants lacking the src 3' splice site were rapidly selected after passage of the chicken cells infected with the mutant virus. Thus, an inefficient src 3' splice site appears to be necessary for the efficient replication of RSV.

Norepinephrine induces vascular endothelial growth factor gene expression in brown adipocytes through a beta -adrenoreceptor/cAMP/protein kinase A pathway involving Src but independently of Erk1/2.

To identify the signaling pathway that mediates the adrenergic stimulation of the expression of the gene for vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) during physiologically induced angiogenesis, we examined mouse brown adipocytes in primary culture. The endogenous adrenergic neurotransmitter norepinephrine (NE) induced VEGF expression 3-fold, in a dose- and time-dependent manner (EC(50) approximately 90 nm). Also, the hypoxia-mimicking agent cobalt, as well as serum and phorbol ester, induced VEGF expression, but the effect of NE was additive to each of these factors, implying that a separate signaling mechanism for the NE-mediated induction was activated. The NE effect was abolished by propranolol and mimicked by isoprenaline or BRL-37344 and was thus mediated via beta-adrenoreceptors. The NE-induced VEGF expression was fully cAMP mediated, an effect which was inhibited by H-89 and thus was dependent on protein kinase A activity. Involvement of other adrenergic signaling pathways (alpha(1)-adrenoreceptors, Ca(2+), protein kinase C, alpha(2)-adrenoreceptors, and pertussis toxin-sensitive G(i)-proteins) was excluded. The specific inhibitor of Src tyrosine kinases, PP2, markedly reduced the stimulation by NE, which demonstrates that a cAMP-dependent Src-mediated pathway is positively connected to VEGF expression. However, inhibition of Erk1/2 MAP kinases by PD98059 was without effect. NE did not prolong VEGF mRNA half-life and its effect was thus transcriptional, and was independent of protein synthesis. These results demonstrate that adrenergic stimulation, through beta-adrenoreceptor/cAMP/protein kinase A signaling, recruits a pathway that branches off from the NE-activated Src-Erk1/2 cascade to enhance transcription of the VEGF gene.

The quaking gene product necessary in embryogenesis and myelination combines features of RNA binding and signal transduction proteins.

The mouse quaking gene, essential for nervous system myelination and survival of the early embryo has been positionally cloned. Its sequence implies that the locus encodes a multifunctional gene used in a specific set of developing tissues to unite signal transduction with some aspect of RNA metabolism. The quaking(viable) (qkv) mutation has one class of messages truncated by a deletion. An independent ENU-induced mutation has a nonconservative amino acid change in one of two newly identified domains that are conserved from the C. elegans gld-1 tumour suppressor gene to the human Src-associated protein Sam68. The size and conservation of the quaking gene family implies that the pathway defined by this mutation may have broad relevance for rapid conveyance of extracellular information directly to primary gene transcripts.
