Deregulation of cell cycle regulatory mechanisms leads to disruption of normal control of cell growth and may be associated with neoplastic transformation. To determine whether immortalized human cells have alterations in their cell cycle regulatory mechanisms, we analyzed cell cycle regulatory prot

β¦ Synopsis
A tyrosine protein kinase activity has been detected in the mitochondrial fraction purified from human fibroblasts. By enzymatic and sedimentation analysis this activity appeared to be localized in the mitochondrial outer membrane. Mitochondrial tyrosine phosphorylation was strictly dependent on the presence of Mn2+ ions. An inverse relationship between cell proliferation and mitochondrial protein phosphorylation on tyrosine residues has been found: a marked increase in the mitochondrial tyrosine kinase activity occurred when a significant reduction in the growth rate followed serum step-down. In mitochondria purified from resting cells, a protein band with apparent molecular weight of 50 kd appeared to be phosphorylated on tyrosine.
