Detection of tyrosine-specific protein kinases with gastrin as exogenous substrate.

Gastrin was recently shown to be phosphorylated on its single tyrosine by the epidermal growth factor (EGF)-stimulated tyrosine protein kinase ( TPK). The TPK previously detected in the murine lymphoma (LSTRA) induced by the Moloney murine leukemia virus phosphorylates gastrin, the apparent Km is 65 microM and the maximum rate 1900 pmol/min per mg; the kinase is more efficient with MnCl2 than with MgCl2, is stimulated by NaVO3 and inhibited by ZnCl2. Gastrin phosphorylation is observed only when a TPK is expressed by the cell: extracts of fibroblasts infected with a temperature-sensitive mutant of the Rous sarcoma virus had no gastrin kinase activity when grown at the non-permissive temperature whereas cells grown at the permissive temperature were transformed and disclosed a clear gastrin kinase activity. Gastrin kinases were detected in various transformed cells: human lymphomas, K562 cells, cells from a patient with acute proliferative leukemia, and normal cells: human T and B lymphocytes.[1]
