Previous studies have shown that Src is required for platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-dependent cell cycle progression in fibroblasts. Since fibroblasts usually express both PDGF receptors (PDGFBs), these findings suggested that Src Tvas mandatory for signal relay by both the alpha and beta PDGFRs. In this study, we have focused on the role of Src in signal relay by the alpha PDGFR. In response to stimulation with PDGF-AA, which selectively engages the alpha PDGFR, Src family members (Src) associated with the alpha PDGFR and Src kinase were activated, A mutant receptor, in which tyrosines 572 and 574 were replaced with phenylalanine (F72/74), failed to efficiently associate with Src or activate Src. The wild type (WT) and F72/74 receptors induced the expression of c-myc and c-fos to comparable levels. Furthermore, an equivalent extent of PDGF-dependent soft agar growth was observed in cells expressing the WT of the F72/74 alpha PDGFR. Comparing the ability of these two receptors to initiate tyrosine phosphorylation of signaling molecules indicated that both receptors mediated phosphorylation of the receptor itself, phospholipase C gamma 1, and SHP-2 to similar levels. In contrast, the F72/74 receptor triggered phosphorylation of Shc to 1 and 20% of the WT levels for the 55- and 46-kDa Shc isoforms, respectively, These findings indicate that after exposure of cells to PDGF-AA, Src stably associates with the alpha PDGFR, and Src activity-is increased. Furthermore, Src is required for the PDGF-dependent phosphorylation of signaling molecules such as She. Finally, activation of Src during the G(0)/G(1) transition does not appear to be required for latter cell. cycle events such as induction of c-myc or cell proliferation.
