title: Stimulation of tyrosine-specific protein phosphorylation and phosphatidylinositol phosphorylation by orthovanadate in rat liver plasma membrane.
abstract: Orthovanadate stimulated the incorporation of 32P from [gamma-32P]ATP by Triton X-100-solubilized rat liver plasma membrane into endogenous, trichloroacetic acid-precipitable materials as well as added (Glu4:Tyr1) copolymers. Extraction of incubation mixture with chloroform-methanol-HCl revealed that the increase in 32P incorporation by vanadate was predominantly into endogenous phospholipids. [32P]Phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PtdIns-4-P) was identified by thin-layer chromatography as the major phosphorylated product of vanadate stimulation, which also resulted in elevated 32P, predominantly in P-Tyr in endogenous membrane proteins. Vanadate effects on protein tyrosine and phosphatidylinositol phosphorylation were concomitant and exhibited similar sensitivity. These effects of vanadate were enhanced by the presence of either dithiothreitol or NAD(P)H. Phosphatidylinositol phosphorylation could also be stimulated by a substrate of and inhibited by a synthetic inhibitory copolymer of tyrosine kinase. These results suggest that vanadate, an oxygen radical producer, stimulates a tyrosine kinase-PtdIns kinase coupled system much like those described for a number of growth factors and oncogene encoded products.
