Thecross-linked cells were solubilized and passed over a column of phosphotyrosyl binding antibody immobilized on protein A-Sepharose. Immunoadsorbed proteins were eluted with a hapten (p-nitrophenyl phosphate) and analyzed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and autoradiography. The eluate from the antibody column contained an Mr 134000 125I-GH-receptor complex. A similar result was obtained when the adipocyte form of 3T3-F442A cells was used in place of the fibroblast form. O-Phosphotyrosine prevented 125I-GH-receptor complexes from binding to the antibody column, whereas O-phosphoserine and O-phosphothreonine did not. In studies of GH-promotedphosphorylation in 3T3-F442A fibroblasts labeled metabolically with [32P] Pj, GH was shown to stimulate formation of a 32P-labeled protein which boundto immobilized phosphotyrosyl binding antibodies. The molecular weight of 114000 obtained for this protein is similar to that expected for non-cross-linked GH receptor. The Mr 114 000 phosphorylated protein could be immunoprecipitated with anti-GH antibody, indicating that GH remained noncovalently boundto this protein during absorption to and elution from the immobilized phosphotyrosyl binding antibody. Phos-phoamino acid analysis after bothlimited acid hydrolysis and extensive base hydrolysis of the Mr 114 000 phosphoprotein confirmed the presence of phosphotyrosyl residues. These observations provide strong evidence that binding of GH to its receptor stimulates phosphorylation of tyrosyl residues in the GH receptor.(jrowth hormone (GH) 1 was identified as a growth factor more than 60 years ago, yet its mechanism of action is poorly understood (Greep, 1974). Recently, the receptors for a number of growth-promoting peptides have been shown to undergo ligand-activated tyrosyl phosphorylation [Cohen et al., 1980; Kasuga et al., 1982a; Roth & Cassell, 1983; Pang et al., 1985a; Nishimura et al., 1982; Frackelton et al., 1984; Jacobs et al., 1983; Rubin et al., 1983; Petruzzeli et al., 1984; Huang & Huang, 1986; for a review, see Carter-Su and Pratt (1984)]. As a first step toward determining whether the GH receptor is a ligand-activated tyrosine kinase, we investigated whether the GH receptor undergoes tyrosyl phosphorylation and whether GH stimulates the phosphorylation of its receptor in 3T3-F442A cells. This cell line undergoes GH-promoted differentiation from a fibroblast to an adipocyte form (Mor-ikawa et al., 1982; Nixon & Green, 1984). Additionally, GH alters carbohydrate and lipid metabolism in the adipocyte form of this cell line (Schwartz, 1984; Schwartz et al., 1985). In the present study, we used cross-linking agents in combination^ This work was supported by research funds provided by Grants DK34171 (awarded to CC-S. and JS) and DK35249 (awarded to JAS) from the National Institutes of Health.
