Abstract

The antigenicity of platelet proteins was assayed against various monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) that recognize specific epitopes of the ras-encoded p21 protein. mAb M90, which detects the region of p21 protein within amino acids 107-130 and inhibits its GTP-binding activity, strongly reacted with a 22-kDa protein present in the particulate fraction of human platelets. Other mAbs against ras-encoded proteins, including Y13-259, which efficiently detects ras proteins from a variety of organisms, did not recognize the platelet 22-kDa protein. Transfer of the platelet 22-kDa protein to nitrocellulose paper showed that the protein binds [alpha-32P]GTP. Moreover, preincubation of the transferred protein with mAb M90 drastically reduced its GTP-binding activity. Treatment of platelets with iloprost, a prostacyclin analog, caused (i) a time-dependent increase of a 24-kDa protein that is recognized by mAb M90 in particulate and cytosolic fractions and (ii) the gradual decrease of the 22-kDa protein from the particulate fraction. When platelets were labeled with 32P and then treated with iloprost, the 24-kDa protein was found to be phosphorylated. The 32P-labeled 24-kDa protein was specifically immunoprecipitated by mAb M90. These results suggest that appearance of the 24-kDa protein results from phosphorylation of the 22-kDa protein, which shifts its mobility to a higher molecular mass area.
