Phosphorylation and biosynthesis of high molecular weight proteins of tumor nuclear matrix

摘要

Our previous studies showed a predominance of high molecular weight protein group in tumor nuclear matrices. contrary to normal cells, Proteins of this group are Preferentially phosphorylated. Phosphoproteins of hepatoma nuclear matrix are selectively subjected to rapid proteolysis. By alkali treatment and a monoclonal antibody against phosphotyrosyl residue the presence of two high molecular weight bands of phosphotyrosyl-containing proteins was defected in nuclear matrices of tumor but not of normal liver cells. High molecular weight protein group of tumor nuclear matrices revealed also a rapid turnover and preferential incorporation of labeled amino acids selectively inhibited by chioramphenicol.
