Popis: | Src family protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs) actively participate in signal transduction during lymphocyte activation. However, little is known about the roles of PTKs and their substrates in lymphocyte differentiation. To identify PTK substrates that may be differentially expressed during B lymphopoiesis, we screened a panel of murine B lymphoid tumor cell lines representing various developmental stages using monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) specific for pp60src substrates. A MAb specific for cortactin, a filamentous-actin binding pp60src substrate, immunoprecipitated proteins from murine plasma-cytoma cell lines but not from pre-B cell lymphoma or B cell lymphoma cell lines. We have cloned a murine cortactin cDNA which encodes a member of a family of proteins distinguished by amino-terminal repeat domains and carboxy-terminal Src Homology 3 domains. Two members of this family (cortactin and HS1) were differentially expressed in murine B lymphoid tumor cell lines; both were detected in plasmacytoma cell lines, however HS1 was additionally detected in pre-B lymphoma and B lymphoma cell lines. Cortactin RNA was detected in most murine tissues, but was not detected in B lymphocytes or plasma cells. We hypothesize that cortactin expression is associated with transformed plasma cells and not with the terminal differentiation of normal B lymphocytes to plasma cells. |
