Lateral inhibition is critical for cell fate determination and involves the functions of Notch (N) and its effectors, the Enhancer of Split Complex, E(spl)C repressors. Although E(spl) proteins mediate the repressive effects of N in diverse contexts, the role of phosphorylation was unclear. The studies we describe implicate a common role for the highly conserved Ser/Thr protein kinase CK2 during eye and bristle development. Compromising the functions of the catalytic (alpha) subunit of CK2 elicits a rough eye and defects in the interommatidial bristles (IOBs). These phenotypes are exacerbated by mutations in CK2 and suppressed by an increase in the dosage of this protein kinase. The appearance of the rough eye correlates, in time and space, to the specification and refinement of the 'founding' R8 photoreceptor. Consistent with this observation, compromising CK2 elicits supernumerary R8's at the posterior margin of the morphogenetic furrow (MF), a phenotype characteristic of loss of E(spl)C and impaired lateral inhibition. We also show that compromising CK2 elicits ectopic and split bristles. The former reflects the specification of excess bristle SOPs, while the latter suggests roles during asymmetric divisions that drive morphogenesis of this sensory organ. In addition, these phenotypes are exacerbated by mutations in CK2 or E(spl), indicating genetic interactions between these two loci. Given the centrality of E(spl) to the repressive effects of N, our studies suggest conserved roles for this protein kinase during lateral inhibition. Candidates for this regulation are the E(spl) repressors, the terminal effectors of this pathway. 相似文献

Analysis of the retinal defects of a CK2 phosphomimetic variant of E(spl)M8 (M8S159D) and the truncated protein M8* encoded by the E(spl)D allele, suggest that the nonphosphorylated CtD “autoinhibits” repression. We have investigated this model by testing for inhibition (in “trans”) by the CtD fragment in its nonphosphorylated (M8‐CtD) and phosphomimetic (M8SD‐CtD) states. In N+ flies, ectopic M8‐CtD compromises lateral inhibition, i.e., elicits supernumerary bristles as with loss of N signaling. This antimorphic activity of M8‐CtD strongly rescues the reduced eye and/or bristle loss phenotypes that are elicited by ectopic M8SD or wild type M8. Additionally, the severely reduced eye of Nspl/Y; E(spl)D/+ flies is also rescued by M8‐CtD. Rescue is specific to the time and place, the morphogenetic furrow, where “founding” R8 photoreceptors are specified. In contrast, the phosphomimetic M8SD‐CtD that is predicted to be deficient for autoinhibition, exhibits significantly attenuated or negligible activity. These studies provide evidence that autoinhibition by the CtD regulates M8 activity in a phosphorylation‐dependent manner. genesis 48:44–55, 2010. © 2009 Wiley‐Liss, Inc. 相似文献

On the mechanism underlying the divergent retinal and bristle defects of M8* (E(spl)D) in Drosophila

Our results, using endogenous mutants and Gal4‐UAS driven transgenes, implicate multisite phosphorylation in repression by E(spl)M8. We propose that these phosphorylations occur in the morphogenetic furrow (MF) to reverse an auto‐inhibited state of M8, enabling repression of Atonal during R8 specification. Our studies address the paradoxical behavior of M8*, the truncated protein encoded by E(spl)D. We suggest that differences in N signaling in the bristle versus the eye underlie the antimorphic activity of M8* in N+ (ectopic bristles) and hypermorphic activity in Nspl (reduced eye). Ectopic M8* impairs eye development (in Nspl) only during establishment of the atonal feedback loop (anterior to the MF), but is ineffective after this time point. In contrast, a CK2 phosphomimetic M8 lacking Groucho (Gro) binding, M8SDΔGro, acts antimorphic in N+ and suppresses the eye/R8 and bristle defects of Nspl, as does reduced dosage of E(spl) or CK2. Multisite phosphorylation could serve as a checkpoint to enable a precise onset of repression, and this is bypassed in M8*. Additional implications are discussed. genesis 47:456–468, 2009. © 2009 Wiley‐Liss, Inc. 相似文献

Drosophila Enhancer of split M8, an effector of Notch signaling, is regulated by protein kinase CK2. The phosphatase PP2A is thought to play an opposing (inhibitory) role, but the identity of the regulatory subunit was unknown. The studies described here reveal a role for the PP2A regulatory subunit widerborst (wdb) in three developmental contexts; the bristle, wing and the R8 photoreceptors of the eye. wdb overexpression elicits bristle and wing defects akin to reduced Notch signaling, whereas hypomorphic mutations in this PP2A subunit elicit opposite effects. We have also evaluated wdb functions using mutations in Notch and E(spl) that affect the eye. We find that the eye and R8 defects of the well-known Nspl mutation are enhanced by a hypomorphic allele of wdb, whereas they are strongly rescued by wdb overexpression. Similarly, ectopic wdb rescues the eye and R8 defects of the E(spl)D mutation, which affects the m8 gene. In addition, wdb overexpression also rescues the bristle defects of ectopically expressed M8, or the eye and R8 defects of its CK2 phosphomimetic variant M8-S159D. The latter finding suggests that PP2A may target M8 at highly conserved residues in the vicinity of the CK2 site, whose phosphorylation controls repression of Atonal and the R8 fate. Together, the studies identify PP2A-Wdb as a participant in Notch signaling, and suggest that M8 activity is controlled by phosphorylation and dephosphorylation. The conservation of the phosphorylation sites between Drosophila E(spl) and the HES/HER proteins from mammals, reptiles, amphibians, birds and fish raises the prospect that this mode of regulation is widespread. 相似文献

In Drosophila, protein kinase CK2 regulates a diverse array of developmental processes. One of these is cell-fate specification (neurogenesis) wherein CK2 regulates basic-helix-loop-helix (bHLH) repressors encoded by the Enhancer of Split Complex (E(spl)C). Specifically, CK2 phosphorylates and activates repressor functions of E(spl)M8 during eye development. In this study we describe the interaction of CK2 with an E(spl)-related bHLH repressor, Deadpan (Dpn). Unlike E(spl)-repressors which are expressed in cells destined for a non-neural cell fate, Dpn is expressed in the neuronal cells and is thought to control the activity of proneural genes. Dpn also regulates sex-determination by repressing sxl, the primary gene involved in sex differentiation. We demonstrate that Dpn is weakly phosphorylated by monomeric CK2α, whereas it is robustly phosphorylated by the embryo-holoenzyme, suggesting a positive role for CK2β. The weak phosphorylation by CK2α is markedly stimulated by the activator polylysine to levels comparable to those with the holoenzyme. In addition, pull down assays indicate a direct interaction between Dpn and CK2. This is the first demonstration that Dpn is a partner and target of CK2, and raises the possibility that its repressor functions might also be regulated by phosphorylation. 相似文献

We have previously identified Ser201 of Sic1, a yeast cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor, as an in vitro target of protein kinase CK2. Here we present new evidence, by using specific anti-P-Ser201 antibodies and 2-D gel electrophoresis coupled to MALDI mass spectrometry analysis, that Sic1 is phosphorylated in vivo on Ser201 shortly after its de novo synthesis, during late anaphase in glucose-grown cells. This phosphorylation is also detected in Sic1 immunopurified from G1 cells. In agreement with these data we also show that the catalytic alpha' subunit of CK2, whose function is required for cell cycle progression, is detected in Sic1 immunopurified complexes, and that phosphorylation on Ser201 is reduced after CK2 inactivation at the non-permissive temperature in a cka1delta cka2(ts) yeast strain. These data strongly support the notion that CK2 phosphorylates Sic1 in vivo. 相似文献

Hairy is a repressor that regulates bristle patterning, and its loss elicits ectopic bristles (neural hyperplasia). However, it has remained unknown whether Hairy is regulated by phosphorylation. We describe here the interaction of protein kinase CK2 and Hairy. Hairy is robustly phosphorylated by the CK2-holoenzyme (CK2-HoloE) purified from Drosophila embryos, but weakly by the catalytic CK2α-subunit alone, suggesting that this interaction requires the regulatory CK2β-subunit. Consistent with this, Hairy preferentially forms a direct complex with CK2-HoloE. Importantly, we demonstrate genetic interactions between CK2 and hairy (h). Thus, flies trans-heterozygous for alleles of CK2α and h display neural hyperplasia akin to homozygous hypomorphic h alleles. In addition, we show that similar phenotypes are elicited in wild-type flies upon expression of RNAi constructs against CK2α/β, and that these defects are sensitive to h gene dosage. Together, these studies suggest that CK2 contributes to repression by Hairy. 相似文献

Phospholipase A1 (PLA1) hydrolyzes the fatty acids of glycerophospholipids, which are structural components of the cellular membrane. Genetic mutations in DDHD1, an intracellular PLA1, result in hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP) in humans. However, the regulation of DDHD1 activity has not yet been elucidated in detail. In the present study, we examined the phosphorylation of DDHD1 and identified the responsible protein kinases. We performed MALDI-TOF MS/MS analysis and Phos-tag SDS-PAGE in alanine-substitution mutants in HEK293 cells and revealed multiple phosphorylation sites in human DDHD1, primarily Ser8, Ser11, Ser723, and Ser727. The treatment of cells with a protein phosphatase inhibitor induced the hyperphosphorylation of DDHD1, suggesting that multisite phosphorylation occurred not only at these major, but also at minor sites. Site-specific kinase-substrate prediction algorithms and in vitro kinase analyses indicated that cyclin-dependent kinase CDK1/cyclin A2 phosphorylated Ser8, Ser11, and Ser727 in DDHD1 with a preference for Ser11 and that CDK5/p35 also phosphorylated Ser11 and Ser727 with a preference for Ser11. In addition, casein kinase CK2α1 was found to phosphorylate Ser104, although this was not a major phosphorylation site in cultivated HEK293 cells. The evaluation of the effects of phosphorylation revealed that the phosphorylation mimic mutants S11/727E exhibit only 20% reduction in PLA1 activity. However, the phosphorylation mimics were mainly localized to focal adhesions, whereas the phosphorylation-resistant mutants S11/727A were not. This suggested that phosphorylation alters the subcellular localization of DDHD1 without greatly affecting its PLA1 activity. 相似文献

The CK2-dependent phosphorylation of Ser13 in cell division cycle protein 37 (Cdc37), a kinase-specific heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) cochaperone, has previously been reported to be essential for the association of Cdc37 with signaling protein kinases [Bandhakavi S, McCann RO, Hanna DE & Glover CVC (2003) J Biol Chem278, 2829-2836; Shao J, Prince T, Hartson SD & Matts RL (2003) J Biol Chem278, 38117-38220; Miyata Y & Nishida E (2004) Mol Cell Biol24, 4065-4074]. Here we describe a new phospho-specific antibody against Cdc37 that recognizes recombinant purified Cdc37 only when incubated with CK2 in the presence of Mg(2+) and ATP. The replacement of Ser13 in Cdc37 by nonphosphorylatable amino acids abolished binding to this antibody. The antibody was specific for phosphorylated Cdc37 and did not crossreact with other CK2 substrates such as Hsp90 and FK506-binding protein 52. Using this antibody, we showed that complexes of Hsp90 with its client signaling kinases, Cdk4, MOK, v-Src, and Raf1, contained the CK2-phosphorylated form of Cdc37 in vivo. Immunofluorescent staining showed that Hsp90 and the phosphorylated form of Cdc37 accumulated in epidermal growth factor-induced membrane ruffles. We further characterized the phosphorylation of Cdc37 using phospho-affinity gel electrophoresis. Our analyses demonstrated that the CK2-dependent phosphorylation of Cdc37 on Ser13 caused a specific gel mobility shift, and that Cdc37 in the complexes between Hsp90 and its client signaling protein kinases was in the phosphorylated form. Our results show the physiological importance of CK2-dependent Cdc37 phosphorylation and the usefulness of phospho-affinity gel electrophoresis in protein phosphorylation analysis. 相似文献

CK2 is a Ser/Thr protein kinase that regulates the activity of the Drosophila basic-helix-loop-helix (bHLH) repressor M8 encoded by the Enhancer of split Complex (E(spl)C) during neurogenesis. Specifically, phosphorylation appears to elicit a conformational change in an autoinhibited state of M8 to one that is permissive for repression. We describe biochemical and molecular modeling studies that provide new insights into repression by M8. Our studies implicate the phosphorylation domain in autoinhibition, and indicate that binding of the co-repressor Groucho (Gro) is context-dependent. Molecular modeling indicates that the Orange domain, proposed to be a specificity-determinant, may instead play a structural role, and that a conformational rearrangement of this domain may be necessary for repression. This model also provides a structural mechanism for the behavior of mutant alleles of the m8 gene. The insights gained from these studies should be applicable to the conserved metazoan bHLH repressors of the Hairy and Enhancer of Split (HES) family that are related to Drosophila M8. 相似文献

Proline-directed protein phosphorylation was shown to depend on the capacity of the targeted Ser(Thr)-Pro bond to exhibit conformational polymorphism. The cis/trans isomer specificity underlying ERK2-catalyzed phosphate transfer leads to a complete discrimination of the cis Ser(Thr)-Pro conformer of oligopeptide substrates. We investigated in vitro the ERK2-catalyzed phosphorylation of Aspergillus oryzae RNase T1 containing two Ser-Pro bonds both of which share high stabilization energy in their respective native state conformation, the cis Ser54-Pro and the trans Ser72-Pro moiety. Despite trans isomer specificity of ERK2, a doubly phosphorylated RNase T1 was found as the final reaction product. Similarly, the RNase T1 S54G/P55N and RNase T1 P73V variants, which retain the prolyl bond conformations of the RNase T1-wt, were both monophosphorylated with a catalytic efficiency kcat/KM of 425 M(-1) s(-1) and 1228 M(-1) s(-1), respectively. However, initial phosphorylation rates did not depend linearly on the ERK2 concentration. The phosphorylation rate of the resulting plateau region at high ERK2 concentrations can be increased up to threefold for the RNase T1 P73V variant in the presence of the peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerase Cyclophilin 18, indicating a conformational interconversion as the rate limiting step in the catalyzed phosphate group transfer. Using peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerases with different substrate specificity, we identified a native state conformational equilibrium of the Ser54-Pro bond with the minor trans Ser54-Pro bond as the phosphorylation-sensitive moiety. This technique can therefore be used for a determination of the ratio and the interconversion rates of prolyl bond isomers in the native state of proteins. 相似文献

A dramatic example of a phenotypic interaction that involves neurogenic loci during Drosophila imaginal development is the synergistic impact of split (spl), a recessive allele of the Notch locus, and E(spl)D, a dominant gain-of-function allele of the Enhancer of split locus, on morphogenesis of the compound eye. Screens for mutations that relieve the enhancing effect of E(spl)D on spl have yielded three classes of mutations: intragenic revertants of the E(spl)D allele, extragenic suppressors that are allelic to the neurogenic gene Delta (Dl) and unlinked extragenic modifiers. Analysis of the suppression of the spl-E(spl)D interaction by various Dl alleles indicates that this modification is sensitive to the dosage of the Dl locus. This tripartite interaction illustrates the combinatorial action of N, Dl and E(spl) during imaginal development. 相似文献

Numb is thought to participate in clathrin-dependent endocytosis by directly interacting with the clathrin-associated adaptor complex AP-2, although the underlying mechanisms are unknown. Numb is also known to be phosphorylated at Ser(264)in vitro and in vivo. Here, we found that Numb is phosphorylated in vitro by Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase I on Ser(283). This phosphorylation was also observed in transfected COS-7 cells, indicating its physiological relevance. Pull-down experiments showed that the phosphorylation of Numb impaired its binding to the AP-2 complex and simultaneously recruited 14-3-3 proteins in vitro. Based on experiments using Numb mutants, both the initial phosphorylation of Ser(264) and the subsequent phosphorylation of Ser(283) are sufficient to abolish the binding of Numb to AP-2 and to promote the interaction with 14-3-3 protein. These findings suggest a novel mechanism for the regulation of Numb-mediated endocytosis, namely through direct phosphorylation. 相似文献

Residue Ser151 of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) is known to be phosphorylated by p21-activated kinase 3 (PAK3). It has been found that PAK3-mediated phosphorylation of cTnI induces an increase in the sensitivity of myofilament to Ca2+, but the detailed mechanism is unknown. We investigated how the structural and kinetic effects mediated by pseudo-phosphorylation of cTnI (S151E) modulates Ca2+-induced activation of cardiac thin filaments. Using steady-state, time-resolved Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) and stopped-flow kinetic measurements, we monitored Ca2+-induced changes in cTnI-cTnC interactions. Measurements were done using reconstituted thin filaments, which contained the pseudo-phosphorylated cTnI(S151E). We hypothesized that the thin filament regulation is modulated by altered cTnC-cTnI interactions due to charge modification caused by the phosphorylation of Ser151 in cTnI. Our results showed that the pseudo-phosphorylation of cTnI (S151E) sensitizes structural changes to Ca2+ by shortening the intersite distances between cTnC and cTnI. Furthermore, kinetic rates of Ca2+ dissociation-induced structural change in the regulatory region of cTnI were reduced significantly by cTnI (S151E). The aforementioned effects of pseudo-phosphorylation of cTnI were similar to those of strong crossbridges on structural changes in cTnI. Our results provide novel information on how cardiac thin filament regulation is modulated by PAK3 phosphorylation of cTnI. 相似文献

Xenopus laevis Aurora-A is phosphorylated in vivo onto three amino acids: Ser53, Thr295 and Ser349. The activation of the kinase depends on its autophosphorylation on Thr295 within the T-loop. The phosphorylation of Ser53 by still unknown kinase(s) prevents its degradation. The present work focused on the regulation of Aurora-A function via Ser349 phosphorylation. Mutagenesis of Ser349 to alanine (S349A) had few impact in vitro on the capability of the kinase to autophosphorylate as well as on its activity. These data in addition to in gel kinase assays and site-specific proteolytic digestion experiments prove that Ser349 is clearly neither a primary autophosphorylation site, nor an autophosphorylation site depending on the priming phosphorylation of Thr295. Using specific antibodies, we also show that the phosphorylation of Aurora-A Ser349 is a physiological event during Xenopus oocyte maturation triggered by progesterone. A peak of phosphorylation paralleled the decrease of Aurora activity observed between meiosis I and II. In response to progesterone, X. laevis stage VI oocytes microinjected with the Aurora-A S349A mutant proceeded normally to germinal vesicle breakdown (GVBD), but degenerated rapidly soon after. Since phosphorylation of Ser349 is responsible for a decrease in kinase activity, our results suggest that a down-regulation of Aurora-A activity involving Ser349 phosphorylation is required in the process of maturation. 相似文献
