Transforming growth factor beta (TGFbeta) interacts with cell surface receptors to initiate a signaling cascade critical in regulating growth, differentiation, and development of many cell types. TGFbeta signaling involves activation of Smad proteins which directly regulate target gene expression. Here we show that Smad proteins also regulate gene expression by using a previously unrecognized pathway involving direct interaction with protein kinase A (PKA). PKA has numerous effects on growth, differentiation, and apoptosis, and activation of PKA is generally initiated by increased cellular cyclic AMP (cAMP). However, we found that TGFbeta activates PKA independent of increased cAMP, and our observations support the conclusion that there is formation of a complex between Smad proteins and the regulatory subunit of PKA, with release of the catalytic subunit from the PKA holoenzyme. We also found that the activation of PKA was required for TGFbeta activation of CREB, induction of p21(Cip1), and inhibition of cell growth. Taken together, these data indicate an important and previously unrecognized interaction between the TGFbeta and PKA signaling pathways. 相似文献

TGF-beta signaling involves a wide array of signaling molecules and multiple controlling events. Scaffold proteins create a functional proximity of signaling molecules and control the specificity of signal transduction. While many components involved in the TGF-beta pathway have been elucidated, little is known about how those components are coordinated by scaffold proteins. Here, we show that Axin activates TGF-beta signaling by forming a multimeric complex consisting of Smad7 and ubiquitin E3 ligase Arkadia. Axin depends on Arkadia to facilitate TGF-beta signaling, as their small interfering RNAs reciprocally abolished the stimulatory effect on TGF-beta signaling. Specific knockdown of Axin or Arkadia revealed that Axin and Arkadia cooperate with each other in promoting Smad7 ubiquitination. Pulse-chase experiments further illustrated that Axin significantly decreased the half-life of Smad7. Axin also induces nuclear export of Smad7. Interestingly, Axin associates with Arkadia and Smad7 independently of TGF-beta signal, in contrast to its transient association with inactive Smad3. However, coexpression of Wnt-1 reduced Smad7 ubiquitination by downregulating Axin levels, underscoring the importance of Axin as an intrinsic regulator in TGF-beta signaling. 相似文献

WNK1 belongs to a unique protein kinase family that lacks the catalytic lysine in its normal position. Mutations in human WNK1 and WNK4 have been implicated in causing a familial form of hypertension. Here we report that overexpression of WNK1 led to increased activity of cotransfected ERK5 in HEK293 cells. ERK5 activation was blocked by the MEK5 inhibitor U0126 and expression of a dominant negative MEK5 mutant. Expression of dominant negative mutants of MEKK2 and MEKK3 also blocked activation of ERK5 by WNK1. Moreover, both MEKK2 and MEKK3 coimmunoprecipitated with endogenous WNK1 from cell lysates. WNK1 phosphorylated both MEKK2 and -3 in vitro, and MEKK3 was activated by WNK1 in 293 cells. Finally, ERK5 activation by epidermal growth factor was attenuated by suppression of WNK1 expression using small interfering RNA. Taken together, these results place WNK1 in the ERK5 MAP kinase pathway upstream of MEKK2/3. 相似文献

Ubiquitin-dependent degradation of Cdc25A is a major mechanism for damage-induced S-phase checkpoint. Two ubiquitin ligases, the Skp1-cullin-beta-TrCP (SCFbeta-TrCP) complex and the anaphase-promoting complex (APCCdh1), are involved in Cdc25A degradation. Here we demonstrate that the transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta)-Smad3 pathway promotes SCF(beta-TrCP)-mediated Cdc25A ubiquitination. Cells treated with TGF-beta, as well as cells transfected with Smad3 or a constitutively active type I TGF-beta receptor, exhibit increased ubiquitination and markedly shortened half-lives of Cdc25A. Furthermore, Cdc25A is stabilized in cells transfected with Smad3 small interfering RNA (siRNA) and cells from Smad3-null mice. TGF-beta-induced ubiquitination is associated with Cdc25A phosphorylation at the beta-TrCP docking site (DS82G motif) and physical association of Cdc25A with Smad3 and beta-TrCP. Cdc25A mutant proteins deficient in DS82G phosphorylation are resistant to TGF-beta-Smad3-induced degradation, whereas a Cdc25A mutant protein defective in APCCdh1 recognition undergoes efficient degradation. Smad3 siRNA inhibits beta-TrCP-Cdc25A interaction and Cdc25A degradation in response to TGF-beta. beta-TrCP2 siRNA also inhibits Smad3-induced Cdc25A degradation. In contrast, Cdh1 siRNA had no effect on Cdc25A down-regulation by Smad3. These data suggest that Smad3 plays a key role in the regulation of Cdc25A ubiquitination by SCFbeta-TrCP and that Cdc25A stabilization observed in various cancers could be associated with defects in the TGF-beta-Smad3 pathway. 相似文献
