Autophosphorylation of purified insulin receptor, in the absence of insulin, was stimulated by selected polypeptide substrates. In the presence of 1 microM insulin these peptides inhibited autophosphorylation. Stimulation was observed with reduced [S-(carboxamidomethyl)cysteinyl]lysozyme (RCAM-lysozyme) and three peptides generated by CNBr cleavage, V8 proteinase digestion and/or chemical modification. We also generated two peptide substrates from RCAM-lysozyme which did not stimulate receptor autophosphorylation and were very weak inhibitors. As a control peptide, the simple substrate angiotensin inhibited receptor autophosphorylation in the absence or presence of insulin. However, stimulatory peptide, but not insulin, significantly shifted the concentration dependence for inhibition by angiotensin. The stimulatory peptides also increased autophosphorylation of the cloned cytoplasmic domain of the kinase [R-BIRK; Villalba, M., Wente, S. R., Russell, D. S., Ahn, J., Reichelderfer, C. F., & Rosen, O. M. (1989) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 86, 7848]. Therefore, stimulation occurs by interaction with the cytoplasmic process of the beta-subunit and not through interaction with the insulin binding alpha-subunit of the native receptor. Autophosphorylation was analyzed by mapping 32P-labeled tryptic phosphopeptides from the beta-subunit and from R-BIRK. Nearly identical phosphopeptide maps were found, comparing first, basal R-BIRK and basal native receptor, second, peptide- and insulin-stimulated native receptor, and third, peptide-stimulated R-BIRK and insulin-stimulated native receptor. Therefore, R-BIRK functions as a basal-state enzyme and can be stimulated in an insulin-like manner. On the basis of these observations, stimulation by insulin and by peptides yields similar functional results, but by apparently different mechanisms.
