PI-3 kinase activity has been shown to associate with p60v-src. We found that immunoprecipitates of p60v-src exhibit an activity that catalyzes the formation of PI-3-P, PI-3,4-P2 and PIP3 from PI, PI-4-P, and PI-4,5-P2, respectively. Transformation of chicken embryo fibroblasts (CEF) by p60v-src of Rous sarcoma virus (RSV) caused elevation of PI-3-P, PI-3,4-P2, and PIP3, suggesting that the PI-3 kinase may be activated in these cells. Similar elevations were seen in cells transformed with the v-yes or v-fps oncogenes, but not with v-ros or v-ras. We have established also a system that allows the binding of PI-3 kinase to purified p60v-src in vitro, reproducing the binding seen in vivo. This assay indicated that more PI-3 kinase activity binds to purified p60v-src in cell lysates from CEF transformed with v-yes or v-fps, suggesting that some modification or over-expression of PI-3 kinase takes place in these cells.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D009857 Oncogenes Genes whose gain-of-function alterations lead to NEOPLASTIC CELL TRANSFORMATION. They include, for example, genes for activators or stimulators of CELL PROLIFERATION such as growth factors, growth factor receptors, protein kinases, signal transducers, nuclear phosphoproteins, and transcription factors. A prefix of "v-" before oncogene symbols indicates oncogenes captured and transmitted by RETROVIRUSES; the prefix "c-" before the gene symbol of an oncogene indicates it is the cellular homolog (PROTO-ONCOGENES) of a v-oncogene.

It is induced by infection with a transforming virus. Transformation, Viral Cell,Viral Cell Transformation,Cell Transformations, Viral,Transformations, Viral Cell,Viral Cell Transformations
D002642 Chick Embryo The developmental entity of a fertilized chicken egg (ZYGOTE). The developmental process begins about 24 h before the egg is laid at the BLASTODISC, a small whitish spot on the surface of the EGG YOLK. After 21 days of incubation, the embryo is fully developed before hatching. Embryo, Chick,Chick Embryos,Embryos, Chick
D004789 Enzyme Activation Conversion of an inactive form of an enzyme to one possessing metabolic activity. It includes 1, activation by ions (activators); 2, activation by cofactors (coenzymes); and 3, conversion of an enzyme precursor (proenzyme or zymogen) to an active enzyme.

D016391 Genes, src Retrovirus-associated DNA sequences (src) originally isolated from the Rous sarcoma virus (RSV). The proto-oncogene src (c-src) codes for a protein that is a member of the tyrosine kinase family and was the first proto-oncogene identified in the human genome. The human c-src gene is located at 20q12-13 on the long arm of chromosome 20. c-src Genes,src Genes,v-src Genes,c-src Proto-Oncogenes,src Gene,src Oncogene,v-src Oncogenes,Gene, c-src,Gene, src,Gene, v-src,Genes, c-src,Genes, v-src,Oncogene, src,Oncogene, v-src,Oncogenes, src,Oncogenes, v-src,Proto-Oncogene, c-src,Proto-Oncogenes, c-src,c src Genes,c src Proto Oncogenes,c-src Gene,c-src Proto-Oncogene,src Oncogenes,v src Genes,v src Oncogenes,v-src Gene,v-src Oncogene
