Characterization, partial purification, and peptide sequencing of p130,the main phosphoprotein associated with v-Crk oncoprotein.
The transforming gene v-crk found in CT10 and ASV-1 avian sarcoma viruses induces marked phosphorylation of several proteins in cells expressing p47v-crk (v-Crk). In this work, the main tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins in ASV-1-infected chicken cells and v-crk-transfected rat cells were characterized biochemically. Both these proteins have a molecular mass of about 130 kDa and are tightly associated with v-Crk in vivo. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis revealed that they are both essentially single proteins (p130) with modifications that result in a broad spot in an acidic region. The broad band of semi-purified p130 became sharp at an elevated position in the gel upon treatment with orthovanadate in vivo or with c-Src kinase produced using a baculovirus vector in vitro, whereas it shifted at a lower position upon treatment with alkaline phosphatase in vitro. These results suggest multiple phosphorylation states of p130, which result in a broad band of p130. Two procedures of immunoaffinity purification were used to purify p130 from 3Y1 cells transfected with v-crk. Approximately 30 pmol of purified p130 was obtained in an immobilized form on a filter starting from 3 x 10(10) cells. Peptide mapping of p130 digested in situ by peptidase revealed that the purity and quantity of the final material were enough for peptide sequencing. Several stretches of partial amino acid sequences were determined, and they indicated that p130 is a novel protein.
