Tyrosine-Specific Phosphorylation of Gpiiia in Platelet Membranes
AbstractIn vitro phosphorylation of platelet subcellular fractions revealed that most of the alkali-resistant phosphoproteins and the majority of pp60c-src were in the surface membrane fraction. An alkali-resistant phosphoprotein of about 100 kDa was also immune precipitated by an anti-phosphotyrosine antibody and comigrated with gpIIIa. The phosphorylation of gpIIIa, but not gpIIb, was confirmed by the comparison of reduced and non-reduced gels, and this protein was phosphorylated exclusively on tyrosine. In contrast, both gpIIb and gpIIIa were phosphorylated when the purified complex was added to immunopurified, immobilised pp60c-src. A synthetic peptide with partial homology to a putative tyrosine phosphorylation site in the cytoplasmic domain of gpIIIa was phosphorylated by antibody-purified pp60c-src. Our results indicate that tyrosine-specific phosphorylation of gpIIIa by pp60c-src may play a role in the regulation of platelet function
