Tyrosine protein kinase (TPK) activity was detected in rat renal brush-border membranes (BBM) using poly(Glu80Na,Tyr20) as a substrate. Maximal TPK activity required prior detergent dispersion of the membranes with 0.05% Triton X-100 and the presence of vanadate, a potent inhibitor of phosphotyrosine protein phosphatases, in the phosphorylation medium. Optimal conditions for measurement of TPK activity were 10 mM of MgCl2 and MnCl2, at 30 degrees C and pH 7.0. TPK activity was inhibited by genistein, with a IC50 value of 15 microM, while no inhibition was observed in the presence of 1-(5-isoquinolinesulfonyl)-2-methyl-piperazine dihydrochloride (H7), an inhibitor of serine-threonine kinases. TPK activity was enriched 4-fold in the BBM fraction relative to cortex homogenate. It was co-enriched with BBM enzyme markers, but not with those of the basolateral membrane (BLM). The endogenous substrates of TPK in brush-border and basolateral membranes were determined by Western blot analysis using an antiphosphotyrosine monoclonal antibody (PY20). Various phosphotyrosine-containing proteins were found in the BBM (31, 34, 46, 50, 53, 72, 90, 118 and 170 kDa) and in the BLM (37, 48, 50, 53, 72, 90, 130 and 170 kDa). Addition of exogenous insulin receptor to BBM and BLM increased the phosphorylation of most of the substrates. Solubilization of the TPK activity from BBM with 0.5% CHAPS and subsequent gel filtration on Superdex 75 yielded two peaks of tyrosine protein kinase activity with apparent molecular masses of 49 and 66 kDa. These results provide evidence for a non-receptor TPK activity associated with the renal tubular luminal membrane.
