A. (1991) J. Biol. Chem. 266, 17798-17803]. Here, we describe the purification to homogeneity of a 50-kDa prominent substrate (p50) of TPK-IIB from rat spleen homogenates. Microsequence analysis of fragments from purified p50 discloses its homology to HS1, a hematopoietic-lineage cell-specific protein implicated in B-cell-antigen receptor-mediated signalling [Yamanashi, Y., Okada, M., Semba, T., Yamori, T., Umemori, H., Tsunasawa, S., Toyoshima, K., Kitamura, D., Watanabe, T. & Yamamoto, T. (1993) Proc. Natl Acad. Sci. USA 90, 3631-3635]. p50 is an excellent substrate for TPK-IIB, exhibiting very favourable kinetic constants (Km = 0.07 microM, kcat = 1.5) and incorporating up to 4 mol P/mol protein. p50 is, however, a weak substrate for the Src-related protein kinases Lyn and c-Fgr. Once phosphorylated by TPK-IIB, however, p50 is converted into a good substrate for c-Fgr and, to a lesser extent, for Lyn. p50 phosphorylated by TPK-IIB associates with c-Fgr and Lyn, as judged by co-immunoprecipitation with anti-Fgr IgG and anti-Lyn IgG, respectively. These data suggest the involvement of TPK-IIB in B-cell-antigen receptor-mediated signalling, and support the idea that phosphorylation by TPK-IIB might be a prerequisite for the recruitment of certain protein substrates by Src-related protein tyrosine kinases."xsd:string |
