Following the growth hormone (GH) and GH receptor (R) interaction, the receptor and Janus tyrosine kinase 2 (JAK2) become tyrosine phosphorylated along with other intracellular proteins. Previously, we reported that GH induces tyrosine phosphorylation of intracellular proteins with molecular masses of approx 95 kDa (pp95) in mouse 3T3-F442A preadipocytes and in mouse L-cells that express recombinant GHRs. We have studied this GH-induced phosphorylation event in greater detail. Three proteins with apparent molecular masses of 93, 95, and 96 kDa showed increased tyrosine phosphorylation in a time-dependent manner following GH treatment of cells that express GH receptors. GH-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of these proteins is independent of activation of protein kinase C (PKC). Cell fractionation studies revealed that the majority of tyrosine-phosphorylated pp95/96 is located in the cytoplasm. pp95 and pp96 have pIs of approx 6.2. Immunoprecipitation and Western blot analyses revealed that pp93 and pp95/96 are not immunologically related with Stat1, Stat3, Stat4, JAK2, and GHR. Thus, pp93 and pp95/96 may be important GH signal transducers independent of PKC activation and different from the characterized members in the JAK-STAT pathway.

D010766	Phosphorylation	The introduction of a phosphoryl group into a compound through the formation of an ester bond between the compound and a phosphorus moiety.	Phosphorylations
D011233	Precipitin Tests	Serologic tests in which a positive reaction manifested by visible CHEMICAL PRECIPITATION occurs when a soluble ANTIGEN reacts with its precipitins, i.e., ANTIBODIES that can form a precipitate.	Precipitin Test,Test, Precipitin,Tests, Precipitin
D011493	Protein Kinase C	An serine-threonine protein kinase that requires the presence of physiological concentrations of CALCIUM and membrane PHOSPHOLIPIDS. The additional presence of DIACYLGLYCEROLS markedly increases its sensitivity to both calcium and phospholipids. The sensitivity of the enzyme can also be increased by PHORBOL ESTERS and it is believed that protein kinase C is the receptor protein of tumor-promoting phorbol esters.

D011986	Receptors, Somatotropin	Cell surface proteins that bind GROWTH HORMONE with high affinity and trigger intracellular changes influencing the behavior of cells. Activation of growth hormone receptors regulates amino acid transport through cell membranes, RNA translation to protein, DNA transcription, and protein and amino acid catabolism in many cell types. Many of these effects are mediated indirectly through stimulation of the release of somatomedins.

D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D013006	Growth Hormone	A polypeptide that is secreted by the adenohypophysis (PITUITARY GLAND, ANTERIOR). Growth hormone, also known as somatotropin, stimulates mitosis, cell differentiation and cell growth. Species-specific growth hormones have been synthesized.
