Characteristics of protein tyrosine kinase activities of Y-79 retinoblastoma cells and retina.

Abstrakcyjny
Protein tyrosine kinase activities were determined in retina and Y-79 retinoblastoma cells. Kinase activity was associated with particulate subcellular fractions. Specific activities were similar in both retina and Y-79 cells; apparent Km values for ATP and casein were also similar. Retinoblastoma-derived growth factor stimulated endogenous protein tyrosine phosphorylation in Y-79 cells significantly more than in retina. Differences in protein tyrosine phosphorylation between retina and Y-79 retinoblastoma appear to be due to differences in regulation of the activity by the growth factor or differences in the endogenous protein substrates present in the Y-79 cells.
