RESUMO

We have examined the in vitro phosphorylation of cellular src protein (pp60c-src) molecules associated with the polyoma virus middle-sized tumor antigen in polyoma virus-transformed cells. These pp60c-src molecules possessed an enhanced tyrosyl kinase activity, migrated aberrantly on NaDodSO4/polyacrylamide gels, and contained a novel site of tyrosine phosphorylation within the amino-terminal region of the molecule. The pp60c-src molecules not associated with the middle-sized tumor antigen were phosphorylated exclusively on a tyrosine residue within the carboxyl-terminal domain of pp60c-src. A similar modified form of the middle-sized tumor antigen-associated pp60c-src protein was detected in lysates from polyoma virus-transformed cells labeled in vivo with [32P]orthophosphate in the presence of sodium orthovanadate, an inhibitor of phosphotyrosyl phosphatases.
