Abstract—The binding of angiotensin II (Ang II) to AT1 is known to increase the kinase activity of several nonreceptor tyrosine kinases including Jak2 and c-Src. In the present study, we demonstrate that treatment of vascular smooth muscle cells with Ang II results in a rapid and transient association of Jak2 and c-Src. This association is dependent on a catalytically active Jak2 kinase, because it is blocked both by pharmacological means and by the inability of a catalytically inactive Jak2 to associate with c-Src. c-Src bound tyrosine phosphorylated Jak2 but was unable to bind an equal amount of unphosphorylated Jak2 protein, indicating that the SH2 domain of c-Src mediates this association. In vivo studies indicated that c-Src binds the N-terminus of Jak2 as expression of a Jak2 molecule lacking the initial 240 amino acids, including 16 tyrosines, and was unable to bind c-Src. Lastly, using transiently transfected COS-7 cells, we found that Ang II treatment induced an association between c-Src and wild-type Jak2 but not between c-Src and the Jak2 molecule that lacks the initial 240 amino acids. Thus, our data suggest that in addition to increasing the kinase activities Jak2 and c-Src, treatment of cells with Ang II results in the physical association of Jak2 and c-Src; an association that is mediated by the SH2 domain of c-Src and the N-terminus of Jak2.
