Diacylglycerol kinases are involved in cell signaling, either as regulators of diacylglycerol levels or as intracellular signal-generating enzymes. However, neither their role in signal transduction nor their biochemical regulation has been elucidated. Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), upon binding to its tyrosine kinase receptor, activates multiple signaling pathways stimulating cell motility, scattering, proliferation and branching morphogenesis. Herein we demonstrate that: (i) the enzymatic activity of alpha-diacylglycerol kinase (alpha Dgk) is stimulated by HGF in epithelial, endothelial and alpha Dgk-transfected COS cells; (ii) cellular expression of an alpha Dgk kinase-defective mutant inhibits activation of endogenous alpha Dgk acting as dominant negative; (iii) specific inhibition of alpha Dgk prevents HGF-induced cell movement of endothelial cells; (iv) HGF induces the association of alpha Dgk in a complex with Src, whose tyrosine kinase activity is required for alpha Dgk activation by HGF; (v) Src wild type stimulates alpha Dgk activity in vitro; and (vi) alpha Dgk can be tyrosine phosphorylated in intact cells.
