Phosphorylation of tyrosine in the carboxyl-terminal tryptic peptide of pp60c-src. 1986

A P Laudano, and J M Buchanan

The major site of tyrosine phosphorylation of the transforming protein of Rous sarcoma virus, pp60v-src (tyrosine-416), is different from the major site of tyrosine phosphorylation of its nontransforming normal cellular counterpart, pp60c-src. We have shown that antibodies against a synthetic peptide modeled on the carboxyl-terminal 13 residues of pp60c-src specifically immunoprecipitate the major phosphotyrosine tryptic peptide of pp60c-src from both chicken and rat fibroblasts. These experiments localize the major site of tyrosine phosphorylation to one or more of the three tyrosine residues in the carboxyl-terminal tryptic peptide at positions 511, 519, and 527 of the amino acid sequence of chicken pp60c-src. Tyrosines-519 and -527 are in the carboxyl-terminal 19-amino acid segment of pp60c-src that is deleted and replaced by an unrelated sequence in pp60v-src. It is possible that phosphorylation of tyrosine in the carboxyl-terminal tryptic peptide may be involved in the normal regulation of pp60c-src. The absence of this phosphorylation site in pp60v-src may, in part, contribute to its oncogenic properties.

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

D016392	Proto-Oncogene Proteins pp60(c-src)	Membrane-associated tyrosine-specific kinases encoded by the c-src genes. They have an important role in cellular growth control. Truncation of carboxy-terminal residues in pp60(c-src) leads to PP60(V-SRC) which has the ability to transform cells. This kinase pp60 c-src should not be confused with csk, also known as c-src kinase.	c-src Protein pp60,pp60(c-src),src Proto-Oncogene Protein pp60,Phosphoprotein pp60(c-src),Proto-Oncogene Protein pp60(c-src),Proto-Oncogene Protein src,pp60 c-src,src Proto-Oncogene Product,Protein pp60, c-src,Protein src, Proto-Oncogene,Proto Oncogene Protein src,Proto-Oncogene Product, src,c src Protein pp60,c-src, pp60,pp60 c src,pp60, c-src Protein,src Proto Oncogene Product,src Proto Oncogene Protein pp60
