Receptor tyrosine kinase regulation of phospholipase C-epsilon (PLC-epsilon), which is under the control of Ras-like and Rho GTPases, was studied with HEK-293 cells endogenously expressing PLC-coupled epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptors. PLC and Ca(2+) signaling by the EGF receptor, which activated both PLC-gamma1 and PLC-epsilon, was specifically suppressed by inactivation of Ras-related GTPases with clostridial toxins and expression of dominant-negative Rap2B. EGF induced rapid and sustained GTP loading of Rap2B, binding of Rap2B to PLC-epsilon, and Rap2B-dependent translocation of PLC-epsilon to the plasma membrane. GTP loading of Rap2B by EGF was inhibited by chelation of intracellular Ca(2+) and expression of lipase-inactive PLC-gamma1 but not of PLC-epsilon. Expression of RasGRP3, a Ca(2+)/diacylglycerol-regulated guanine nucleotide exchange factor for Ras-like GTPases, but not expression of various other exchange factors enhanced GTP loading of Rap2B and PLC/Ca(2+) signaling by the EGF receptor. EGF induced tyrosine phosphorylation of RasGRP3, but not RasGRP1, apparently caused by c-Src; inhibition of c-Src interfered with EGF-induced Rap2B activation and PLC stimulation. Collectively, these data suggest that the EGF receptor triggers activation of Rap2B via PLC-gamma1 activation and tyrosine phosphorylation of RasGRP3 by c-Src, finally resulting in stimulation of PLC-epsilon.
