摘要：This report extends our previous studies concerning the identification and characterization of a protein from normal cells that is closely related to the avian sarcoma virus (ASV) transforming gene product pp60src. This normal cellular protein, which we have found in both avian and mammalian cells and have tentatively designated pp60sarc, was detected by immunoprecipitation of radiolabeled cell extracts with serum derived from both mice and rabbits bearing ASV-induced tumors. The normal cell pp60sarc is a 60,000-dalton phosphoprotein that is structurally similar, but not identical, to viral pp60src. The phosphorylation patterns of the normal cell and viral proteins are also similar: both contain two major phosphorylated residues, a phosphoserine located on the NH2-terminal 60% of the polypeptide and a phosphothreonine present on the COOH-terminal 40% of the molecule. In addition, the normal cell pp60sarc from both chicken and mammalian cells appears to have an associated protein kinase activity analogous to that previously described for the viral pp60src. The possible roles played by the normal cell protein pp60sarc and the ASV transforming protein pp60src in normal cellular growth and neoplastic disease, respectively, are discussed.
