  • Title: AtT20 cells express modified forms of pp60c-src.
    Author: Gould KL, Bilezikjian LM, Hunter T.
    Journal: Mol Endocrinol; 1989 Jan; 3(1):79-88. PubMed ID: 2464757.
    Abstract:
    We have compared the properties of pp60c-src from the mouse pituitary tumor cell line, AtT20, and from mouse fibroblasts. In vitro, pp60c-src phosphotransferase activity from AtT20 cells is 2- to 3-fold that of mouse NIH 3T3 fibroblast pp60c-src. In analyzing the reason for this elevation in specific activity, we found that pp60c-src from AtT20 cells differs structurally in at least three ways from pp60c-src in fibroblasts. First, AtT20 cells and primary rat anterior pituitary cells express low levels of the neuronal form of pp60c-src. Second, pp60c-src from AtT20 cells is phosphorylated at two additional N-terminal serine residues. Last, AtT20 pp60c-src is phosphorylated to a lower overall stoichiometry.
