A1 - Schartl, Manfred T1 - Localization of cellular src mRNA during development and in the differentiated bipolar neurons of the adult neural retina in Xiphophorus N2 - The expression of the c-src gene in embryonie and adult tissue of the teleost fish Xiphophorus helleri was analyzed by in-situ hybridization. The highly conserved fish c-src gene was found to be expressed at high levels in midterm embryos, where c-src mRNA was localized in developing neurons of the sensory layer of the differentiating retina and in the developing brain. In adult tissues the expression of c-src was found to persist in certain cell types of the brain and the neural retina, especially in the bipolar cells of the inner nuclear layer, which are postmitotic, fully differentiated mature neurons. Thus c-src in Xiphophorus appears to be a developmentally regulated proto-oncogene which is important for neuronal differentiation during organogenesis, but whose persistence of expression in certain terminally differentiated neurons strongly suggests a particular maintenance function for c-src in these cells as well.

A1 - Barnekow, Angelika T1 - Preferential expression of a pp60c-src related protein tyrosine kinase activity in nerve cells of the early metazoan Hydra (Coelenterates) N2 - It has been suggested that the proto-oncogene c-src plays a functional role in developing neurons, and in the mature nerve cells of higher vertebrales. The coelenterate Hydra represents tbe most primitive known organism possessing nerve cells. With Southern blot hybridizations we have demonstrated src-related sequences in Hydra. Antisera specific for the c-src gene product (pp60 c-src) of birds and mammals precipitate a protein from Hydra cell extracts with a tyrosine-specific protein kinase activity. Studies of tissues and cells fractionated from a temperature sensitive mutant of Hydra which is depleted of interstitial (including nerve) cells at tbe non-permissive temperature, have indicated the src-like kinase of Hydra to be preferentially expressed in nerve cells. The high conservation of structural features and of the expression pattern indicates a basic function for pp60c-src in neurons.

Same of these give rise to malignant melanoma following the appropriate crossings. For one of these pattern Iod from the platyfish Xiphophorus maculatus the melanoma-inducing gene has been doned and found to encode a novel receptor tyrosine kinase, designated Xmrk. Using molecular probes from this gene in Southern blot analyses on single fish DNA preparations from 600 specimens of different populations of various species of the genus Xiphophorus and their hybrids, either with or without melanomapredisposing pattern, it was shown that all individuals contain the Xmrk gene as a proto-oncogene. It is located on the sex chromosome. All fish that carry a melanoma-predisposing locus which has been identified by Mendelian genetics contain an additional copy of Xmrk, closely linked to a specific melanophore pattern locus on the sex chromosome. The melanoma-inducing loci of the different species and populations are homologous. The additional copy of Xmrk obviously arose by a geneduplication event, thereby acquiring the oncogenic potential. The homology of the melanomainducing Iod points to a similar mechanism of tumor suppression in all feral fish populations of the different species of the genus Xiphophorus.

Several viral enhancers were found to be constitutively active at high Ieveis. The human metallothionein promoter showed inducible expression in the presence of heavy metal Ions. A fish sequence was isolated that can be used as a homologous constitutively active promoter for expression of foreign genes. Using the human growth hormone gene with an active promoter in fish cells for transient expression insufficient splicing and Iack of translation were observed, pointing to limitations in the use of heterologous genes in gene transfer experiments. On the contrary, some heterologous promoters and enhancers functioned in fish c as weil as in their cell type of origin, indicating t at corresponding transcription factors are sufficient conserved between fish and human over a period of 900 million years of Independent evolution.

Analysis of several somatic cell hybrids containing various derivatives with deletions or translocations revealed that the human MyoD (MYF3) gene is not associated with the WAGR locus at chromosomal band 11pl3 nor with the loss of the heterozygosity region at 11p15.5 related to the Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome. Subregional mapping by in situ hybridization with an myf3 specific probe shows that the gene resides at the chromosomal band llp14, possibly at llp14.3.

N2 - C. borneensis (Myrmicinae) lives in dose association with several myrmecophytic species of the South East Asian pioneer tree genus Macaranga (Euphorbiaceae). The ants are adapted to the plants so dosely that they do not survive away from it. The only food they utilize is provided as food bodies by the plant and honeydew from specific scale insects kept inside the hollow internodes. The anatomy of the digestive tract is also adapted to life on the host plant: the crop is very sm all and can store only minute food quantities. C. borneensis exdusively colonizes certain Macaranga species. Queens as weIl as workers are able to recognize their host plant species, probably by chemical cues. Colony founding queens swarm throughout the year, mostly during darkness. There is strong competition among queens for host plants. Queens do not carry scale insects on their nuptial flight. Worker ants are active day and night. Most of them patrol and collect food bodies on the younger parts of the host plant. An important characteristic is their deaning behaviour, which results in removal of aIl foreign objects. Even though they are rather smalI, workers respond very aggressively to certain kinds of disturbance of the host plant. The ants attack most phytophagous insects and are especially effective in killing and removing smalI, softbodied herbivores (e.g. caterpillars). They do not possess a functional sting, but apply defensive secretion and-once biting an intruder-will not let go. Their effective alarm system results in a mass attack, which provides adequate defence for the colony and the host plant. A comparison with another Crematogaster species further illustrated the special adaptations of C. borneensis to its host plant. N2 - Untersuchungen über die südostasiatische Ameisen·Pflanzen-Vergesellschaftung Cremattogaster borneensis Maoaranga : Anpassungen des Ameisenpartners 213 C. borneensis (Myrmicinae) lebt in enger Gemeinschaft mit myrmekophytischen Arten der südostasiatischen Pionierbaumgattung Macaranga (Euphorbiaceae) . Die Ameise ist so eng an die Pflanze adaptiert, daß sie getrennt von ihr nicht lebensfähig ist. Die Nahrung bezieht C. borneensis in Form von Nährkörperchen ausschließlich von der Pflanze. Im Sproßachseninnern gehaltene spezifische Schildläuse bieten eine weitere Nahrungsquelle. Die Adaptationen erstrecken sich bis auf die Anatomie des Verdauungstraktes : Der Kropf ist sehr klein und kann nur geringe Nahrungsmengen speichern. C. borneensis besiedelt spezifisch nur Macaranga-Pflanzen. Sowohl Königinnen als auch Arbeiterinnen sind in der Lage, die Wirtspflanze zu erkennen, wobei offenbar chemische Reize eine Rolle spielen. Die koloniegründenden Königinnen schwärmen das gesamte Jahr über, das Schwärmen erfolgt überwiegend während der Dunkelheit. Um die besiedlungsfähigen Macaranga-Pflanzen herrscht ein starker Konkurrenzdruck. Die beteiligten Schildlausarten sind spezifisch für die Assoziation. Sie werden nicht von der Königin beim Hochzeitsflug mitgenommen. Die Arbeiterinnen sind tag- und nachtaktiv. Die meisten Tiere halten sich im jüngsten Drittel der Pflanze auf, wo sie patrouillieren und Nährkörperchen sammeln. Mittels eines spezifischen Säuberungsverhaltens entfernen die Arbeiterinnen alle Fremdobjekte von der Pflanze. Trotz ihrer geringen Größe attackieren die Ameisen eine Vielzahl phytophager Insekten und sind dabei besonders effektiv in der Abwehr kleiner, wenig sklerotisierter Tiere wie z.B. Raupen. Sie verfügen zwar nicht ' über einen funktionsfähigen Stachel, setzen aber Wehrsekrete ein und beißen sich hartnäckig fest . Mit Hilfe eines effektiven Alarmierungssystems, das einen Massenangriff ermöglicht, gewährleisten sie eine Verteidigung ihrer Kolonien und damit gleichzeitig ihrer Wirtspflanze. Eine Vergleich mit einer anderen Crematogaster-Art demonstriert die besonderen Adaptationen von C. borneensis an ihre Wirtspflanze.

In the central nervous system pp60 s-src is preferentially expressed in regions characterized by a high content of grey matter and elevated density of nerve terminals. In this study we show for the first time a direct interaction between pp60 c-src and synaptophysin as a physiological target protein in neurons by demonstrating that endogenous pp60 c-src is able to phosphorylate synaptophysin (p38). p38 is a major constituent of the synaptic vesicle membrane protein and is thought to play a key role in the exocytosis of small synaptic vesicles and possibly small clear vesicles in neuroendocrine cells.
