RESUMO
Structure and function of p185neu receptor tyrosine kinase were found to be regulated in a cell cycle-dependent manner. In M phase, p185neu is hyperphosphorylated at serine and/or threonine residues. The phosphotyrosine [Tyr(P)] content of p185neu is at its highest level in G0/G1 phase, decreases through S and G2 phases, and reaches its lowest level in M phase. Phospholipase C-gamma (PLC-gamma) and GTPase-activating protein (GAP), substrates of p185neu, also have a similar profile of Tyr(P) content during the cell cycle. These results, along with in vitro immune complex kinase assays, suggest that the tyrosine kinase activity of p185neu is least active in M phase. Interestingly, the mutation-activated neu oncogene (neu*)-encoded protein product, p185neu* escaped from cell cycle regulation. Taken together, we demonstrate in this report that the structure and function of p185neu are regulated in a cell cycle-dependent manner, yet p185neu* escapes from this regulation and remains active through the cell cycle. Disruption of this cell cycle regulation may define a mechanism for p185neu*-mediated cellular transformation.
