| abstractText | Recently, we generated mice with a targeted disruption of the insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1) gene and demonstrated that they exhibited growth retardation and mild insulin resistance, suggesting the presence of IRS-1-independent pathway that partially substitutes for IRS-1 in IRS-1-deficient mice (Tamemoto, H., Kadowaki, T., Tobe, K., Yagi, T., Sakura, H., Hayakawa, T., Terauchi, Y., Ueki, K., Kaburagi, Y., Satoh, S., Sekihara, H., Yoshioka, S., Horikoshi, H., Furuta, Y., Ikawa, Y., Kasuga, M., Yazaki, Y., and Aizawa, S. (1994) Nature 372, 182-186). We have examined the insulin-stimulated tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins in livers of wild type and IRS-1-deficient mice. Tyrosine phosphorylation of an 190-kDa protein (pp190) by insulin was significantly stimulated in livers of IRS-1-deficient mice, which was weakly observed in wild type mice in addition to IRS-1. We also demonstrated that pp190 was immunologically distinct from IRS-1 and was associated with both the 85-kDa subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and the Grb2/Ash molecule as IRS-1. We identified pp190 as a novel substrate for insulin receptor kinase (IRS-2), which can bind both PI3-kinase and Ash/Grb2, and whose tyrosine phosphorylation is specifically induced in IRS-1-deficient mice. These data suggested that pp190 may play some physiological roles in insulin's signal transduction; furthermore, induction of tyrosine phosphorylation of pp190 may be one of the compensatory mechanisms that substitute for IRS-1 in IRS-1-deficient mice. |
