Loss of adhesion of NRK fibroblasts to an appropriate surface leads to cell cycle arrest in late G1and failure to produce cyclin A. Previously, we showed that adhesion-dependent expression of cyclin A is transcriptionally regulated. In an effort to identify elements of the adhesion-mediated signal transduction cascade upstream of cyclin A activation, we investigated the expression of cyclin E and its associated kinase activity in adherent and suspended NRK cells. Expression of cyclin E was found to be unaffected by suspension. However, cyclin E complexes immunoprecipitated from extracts prepared from NRK cells 12 h after release from G0arrest were found to be catalytically inactive in suspended but not in adherent cells. This suspension-induced inhibition of cyclin E-associated kinase activity was not observed in NRK cells transformed by a c-Ha-rasoncogene containing a G12V mutation. When G0-synchronized NRK cells were transfected with a cyclin A promoter:luciferase reporter construct along with expression vectors for either wild-type cdk2 or a dominant-negative cdk2 mutant, transcriptional activation of cyclin A was found to be dependent on catalytically active cdk2. Inhibition of cyclin E/cdk2 complexes has frequently been attributed to association of the cdk inhibitors p21Cip1and p27Kip1. However, no differences between adherent and suspended cells could be observed for either expression or cdk2 association of p21Cip1or p27Kip1, nor were any proteins specifically associated with cdk2 or cyclin E in immunoprecipitates from metabolically labeled cell extracts. These results define a pathway through which an adhesion-generated signal controls cyclin A expression by modulating cyclin E/cdk2 activity.
