酶p70(s6k)和p85(s6k)是同一激酶的两种亚型(1,2),在有丝分裂中很重要(2 - 4)。这两种亚型都被复杂的磷酸化事件激活(5),并位于共同的信号传导途径(4),与p42(mapk)/p44(mapk)激酶不同(6)。p42(mapk)/p44(mapk)的激活由GDP-GTP交换因子Sos、GTP结合蛋白p21(ras)、蛋白激酶p74(raf)和p47(mek)的顺序激活触发(参考文献7 - 10)。由于p21(ras)转化的细胞增加了S6磷酸化(11),我们测试了p70(s6k)/p85(s6k)信号通路是否在p21(ras)和p42(mapk)/p44(mapk)之间分叉。我们发现p74(raf)和p21(ras)的突变体阻断了表位标记的p44(mapk)的激活,但不能阻断表位标记的p70(s6k)的激活。此外,在表达缺乏激酶插入结构域的人血小板衍生生长因子受体的细胞中,生长因子激活p21(ras),但不激活p70(s6k)/p85(s6k)。该结构域中p70(s6k)/p85(s6k)活化的关键自磷酸化位点是残基751处的酪氨酸。我们的研究结果表明,p70(s6k)/p85(s6k)信号通路是独立的p21(ras),它从p21(ras)通路在受体分叉,它是由自磷酸化在一个特定的网站启动。
THE enzymes p70(s6k) and p85(s6k) two isoforms of the same kinase(1,2) and are important in mitogenesis(2-4). Both isoforms are activated by a complex phosphorylation event(5) and lie on a common signalling pathway(4), distinct from that of the p42(mapk)/p44(mapk) kinases(6). Activation of p42(mapk)/p44(mapk) is triggered by sequential activation of the GDP-GTP exchange factor Sos, the GTP-binding protein p21(ras), and protein kinases p74(raf) and p47(mek) (refs 7-10). As p21(ras) transformed cells have increased S6 phosphorylation(11), we tested whether the p70(s6k)/p85(s6k) signalling pathway bifurcates between p21(ras) and p42(mapk)/p44(mapk). We found that mutants of p74(raf) and p21(ras) blocked activation of epitope-tagged p44(mapk) but not epitope-tagged p70(s6k). Moreover, in cells expressing human platelet-derived growth factor receptors lacking the kinase-insert domain, the growth factor activates p21(ras) but not p70(s6k)/p85(s6k). The critical autophosphorylation site for p70(s6k)/p85(s6k) activation within this domain is a tyrosine at residue 751. Our results show that the p70(s6k)/p85(s6k) signalling pathway is independent of p21(ras), that it bifurcates from the p21(ras) pathway at the receptor, and that it is initiated by autophosphorylation at a specific site.
