The protein kinase cascade Raf-MAPKK/MEK-MAPK/ERK connects protein tyrosine kinase receptors in the membrane with control of transcription factor activity in the nucleus. We have examined whether Raf is obligatory for activation of this cascade and whether this signaling pathway is relevant to transformation. By use of transient assays with epitope-tagged ERK-1 cDNA and a dominant inhibitory mutant of Raf-1 we found that serum and 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate as well as representatives of three classes of oncogenes (protein tyrosine kinases abl/src, Ras, and protein serine/threonine kinases mos/cot) were all Raf-dependent for stimulation of MAPK. All of the MAPK stimulating oncogenes were also activators of Raf kinase as judged by shift induction. It thus appears that there is little or no redundancy in pathways used by growth regulators for activation of MAPK/ERK. Furthermore, the ability to stimulate MAPK/ERK appears to be critical for transformation by oncogenic Raf-1 and ERK-1 and -2 synergized with v-raf in a focus induction assay on NIH3T3 cells and kinase dead mutants of ERK-2 were inhibitory. Raf/ERK synergism was also observed in transcriptional transactivation of the oncogene-response element in the polyoma enhancer. We conclude that this Raf signaling pathway, which connects to many upstream activators and downstream effectors, is essential for transformation by most oncogenes.
