Abstract

v-Abl is an oncogenic form of the c-Abl nonreceptor tyrosine kinase. v-Abl induces transcription of c-myc, and c-Myc function is a necessary but not sufficient component of the v-Abl transformation program. Previously we showed that the E2F site in the c-myc promoter is a v-Abl response element and that v-Abl appears to induce c-myc by initiating a phosphorylation cascade that ultimately activates E2F-binding proteins. In this work we have investigated the signaling pathway between the v-Abl tyrosine kinase and activated E2F proteins. We show that the Ras GTPase and Raf1 serine/threonine kinase are required in this pathway. However, in contrast to other aspects of v-Abl signaling, induction of c-myc transcription is independent of the Rac GTPase. Our results also establish a requirement for activated cyclin-dependent kinases (cdks), as v-Abl-dependent induction of c-myc transcription is blocked by cdk inhibitor p21 and induction of c-myc is accompanied by activation of cdk2 and cdk4. Finally, we show that v-Abl-dependent induction of c-myc is accompanied by hyperphosphorylation of pRb, p107, and p130. On the basis of these data, we propose a model for the signaling path from v-Abl to c-myc.
