Localization of major potential substrates of p60v-src kinase in the plasma membrane matrix fraction.
Subcellular localization of potential substrates of a tyrosine-protein kinase, p60v-src, was analyzed by cell fractionation in combination with immunoblotting with antiphosphotyrosine antibody. In cells transformed by wild type Rous sarcoma virus, most phosphotyrosine-containing proteins were found both in plasma membranes and in a cytoplasmic matrix structure associated with plasma membranes and resistant to nonionic detergent extraction (plasma membrane matrix). A similar localization of phosphotyrosine-containing proteins was obtained in cells transformed by PRCII, Y73, or Fujinami sarcoma virus. On the other hand, in cells infected with Rous sarcoma virus mutants that encode nonmyristylated p60v-src, tyrosine phosphorylation was found mostly in proteins which were different from those identified in wild type-infected cells and were distributed to both plasma membrane and cytosolic fractions. These results suggest that most cellular substrate proteins, phosphorylation of some of which may be critical for the initiation of transformation, are present primarily in the plasma membrane-matrix structure.
