A newly isolated T-cell line (CB1) derived from a T-acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (T-ALL) patient contained cells (40% of total) which did not express the CD45 phosphotyrosine phosphatase. The cells were sorted into CD45(-) and CD45(+) populations and shown to be clonal in origin. T-cell receptor (TCR) cross-linking or coligation of the TCR with its CD4/CD8 co-receptors induced tyrosine phosphorylation and calcium signals in CD45(+) but not in CD45(-) cells. Unexpectedly, whole cell p56(lck) and p59(fyn) tyrosine kinase activities were not reduced in CD45(-) compared to CD35(+) cells. A novel technique was therefore developed to isolate specific pools of aggregated receptors expressed at the cell surface, together with their associated tyrosine kinases. Using this technique it was shown that cell surface CD4-p56(lck) kinase activity was 78% lower in CD45(-) than in CD45(+) cells. Phosphorylation of TCR zeta- and gamma-chains occurred in TCR immunocomplexes from CD45(+) but not CD45(-) cells, despite comparable levels of p59(fyn) and TCR proteins. Furthermore, TCR-associated tyrosine kinase activity towards an exogenous substrate was 84% lower in CD45(-) than in CD45(+) cells. Addition of recombinant p5(fyn) to TCR immunocomplexes isolated from CD45(-) cells restored the phosphorylation of the TCR zeta- and gamma-chains. Our results demonstrate that CD45 selectively regulates the pools of p59(fyn) and p56(lck) kinases which are associated with the TCR and CD4 at the cell surface. Activation by CD45 of these receptor-associated kinase pools correlates with the ability of the TCR and its co-receptors to couple to intracellular signalling pathways.
