Abstract

Tyrosine kinase activity, a determinant of Src homology domain interactions, has a prominent effect on cellular localization and catalysis by 5-lipoxygenase. Six separate inhibitors of tyrosine kinase each inhibited 5(S)-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid formation by HL-60 cells stimulated with calcium ionophore, in the presence or absence of exogenous arachidonic acid substrate, indicating that they modulated cellular 5-lipoxygenase activity. The tyrosine kinase inhibitors also blocked the translocation of 5- lipoxygenase from cytosol to membranes during cellular activation, consistent with their effects on its catalytic activity. These results fit a model which postulates that Src homology domain interactions are a molecular determinant of the processes which coordinate the subcellular localization and functions of 5-lipoxygenase. In addition, we demonstrate that activated leukocytes contain two molecularly distinct forms of 5-lipoxygenase: a phosphorylated form and a nonphosphorylated form. In activated HL-60 cells the pool of phosphorylated 5-lipoxygenase accumulates in the nuclear fraction, not with the membrane or cytosolic fractions. The amount of phosphorylated 5- lipoxygenase is a small fraction of the total. Overall, equilibrium reactions involving the nuclear localizing sequence, the proline-rich SH3 binding motif, and the phosphorylation state of 5-lipoxygenase may each influence its partnership with other cellular proteins and any novel functions derived from such partnerships.
