The identity of protein-tyrosine-phosphatases (PTPases) active against autophosphorylated insulin receptor was probed by using an insulin-receptor-related peptide phosphorylated on tyrosine (peptide 1142-1153). Two major peaks of PTPase activity were resolved from the particulate (Triton X-100-soluble) fraction of human placenta by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose. The two peaks were purified 1300-2300-fold; other peaks of PTPase activity (greater than 15%) were not detected. Properties of the PTPases indicated that they corresponded to subtypes 1A and 1B. Both subtypes appeared capable of catalysing dephosphorylation of all autophosphorylation sites in three domains of the insulin receptor, with no appreciable difference in the pattern of dephosphorylation detected by two-dimensional tryptic-peptide mapping. The tyrosine-1150 domain of the insulin receptor in triply phosphorylated form was found to be highly sensitive to the action of both PTPases, and was dephosphorylated at least 4 times faster than the doubly and singly phosphorylated forms of the tyrosine-1150 domain or phosphorylation sites in other domains by either PTPase. This is significant, as the level of the triphosphotyrosine-1150 species has been shown to correlate well with the capacity of the insulin-receptor tyrosine kinase to phosphorylate other proteins. Both subtypes also dephosphorylated autophosphorylated epidermal-growth-factor (EGF) receptor by greater than 95%. Placental particulate (and cytosolic) PTPase activity against either receptor distributed approximately 2:1 between subtypes 1A and 1B as assayed in the presence of EDTA. In summary, PTPases within two major subtypes have been identified as phosphotyrosyl-insulin and -EGF-receptor phosphatases in vitro. The PTPases identified exhibit high affinities for substrates and high activities in cells, which is commensurate with the PTPases being important in vivo in controlling or reversing autophosphorylation-induced regulatory or signalling events.
