Activation of Phospholipase Cgamma 2 by Tyrosine Phosphorylation

Phospholipase Cgamma 2 (PLCgamma 2) has been implicated in collagen-induced signal transduction in platelets and antigen-dependent signaling in B-lymphocytes. It has been suggested that tyrosine kinases activate PLCgamma 2. We expressed the full-length cDNA for human PLCgamma 2 in bacteria and purified the recombinant enzyme. The recombinant enzyme was Ca2+-dependent with optimal activity in the range of 1 to 10 µM Ca2+. In vitro phosphorylation experiments with recombinant PLCgamma 2 and recombinant Lck, Fyn, and Lyn tyrosine kinases showed that phosphorylation of PLCgamma 2 led to activation of the recombinant enzyme. Using site-directed mutagenesis, we investigated the role of specific tyrosine residues in activation of PLCgamma 2. A mutant form of PLCgamma 2, in which all three tyrosines at positions 743, 753, and 759 in the SH2-SH3 linker region were replaced by phenylalanines, exhibited decreased Lck-induced phosphorylation and completely abolished the Lck-dependent activation of PLCgamma 2. Individual mutations of these tyrosine residues demonstrated that tyrosines 753 and 759, but not 743, were responsible for Lck-induced activation of PLCgamma 2. To confirm these results, we procured a phosphospecific antibody to a peptide containing phosphorylated tyrosines corresponding to residues 753 and 759. This antibody recognized phosphorylated wild-type PLCgamma 2 on Western blots but did not interact with unphosphorylated PLCgamma 2 or with PLCgamma 2 containing mutated tyrosine residues at 753 and 759. Using this antibody, we showed in intact platelets that collagen, a PLCgamma 2-dependent agonist, induces phosphorylation of PLCgamma 2 at Y753 and Y759. These studies demonstrate the importance of these two tyrosine residues in regulating the activity of PLCgamma 2.
