Abstract:
:EJ-ras oncogene-induced malignant transformation is characterized by a series of changes in cell surface carbohydrates and cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions. Here, we show that EJ-ras-transformed NIH-3T3 fibroblasts acquired a migratory phenotype on laminin-1 surfaces. Such a phenotype was accompanied by overexpression of: (a) functional alpha6beta1, but not other laminin binding beta1-integrins; and (b) glycoconjugates on the cell surface bearing large oligosaccharides recognized by leukoagglutinin from Phaseolus vulgaris (L-PHA). The internal pool of pre-beta1-integrins was differently regulated in EJ-ras-transformed cells compared with nontransfected fibroblasts. Conversion of pre-beta1- into mature beta1-integrins was faster in EJ-ras-transformed cells, a process associated with the overexpression of the alpha6-chain. Overexpression of L-PHA-reactive oligosaccharides is dependent on the activity of N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase V, which is increased in transformed cells [J. W. Dennis et al., Science (Washington DC), 236: 582-585, 1987]. We show that beta1-integrins were the major carriers of L-PHA-reactive oligosaccharides on the cell surface. This glycosylation pattern, however, was not necessary for either the cell surface expression of beta1-integrins or their functional activity in the migratory response to laminin-1. Moreover, EJ-ras-transformed fibroblasts aggregated spontaneously. These effects were not observed in c-jun-transfected fibroblasts, which were unable to migrate on laminin, did not overexpress either beta1-integrins or L-PHA-reactive oligosaccharides, and did not self-aggregate.
