Grb7, Grb10 and Grb14 comprise a family of adaptor proteins that interact with numerous receptor tyrosine kinases upon receptor activation. Between the pleckstrin homology (PH) domain and the Src homology 2 (SH2) domain of these proteins is a region of approximately 50 residues known as the BPS (between PH and SH2) domain. Here we show, using purified recombinant proteins, that the BPS domain of Grb10 directly inhibits substrate phosphorylation by the activated tyrosine kinase domains of the insulin receptor and the insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1) receptor. Although inhibition by the BPS domain is dependent on tyrosine phosphorylation of the kinase activation loop, peptide competition experiments indicate that the BPS domain does not bind directly to phosphotyrosine. These studies provide a molecular mechanism by which Grb10 functions as a negative regulator of insulin- and/or IGF1-mediated signaling. 相似文献

Grb10 is a member of the Grb7 family of adapter proteins lacking intrinsic enzymatic function and encodes functional domains including a pleckstrin homology (PH) domain and an SH2 domain. The role of different Grb10 splice variants in signal transduction of growth factors like insulin or insulin-like growth factor has been described as inhibitory or stimulatory depending on the presence of a functional PH and/or SH2 domain. Performing a yeast two-hybrid screen with the c-kit cytoplasmic tail fused to LexA as a bait and a mouse embryo cDNA library as prey, we found that the Grb10 SH2 domain interacted with the c-kit receptor tyrosine kinase. In the course of SCF-mediated activation of c-kit, Grb10 is recruited to the c-kit receptor in an SH2 domain- and phosphotyrosine-dependent but PH domain-independent manner. We found that Akt and Grb10 form a constitutive complex, suggesting a role for Grb10 in the translocation of Akt to the cell membrane. Indeed, coexpression studies revealed that Grb10 and c-kit activate Akt in a synergistic manner. This dose-dependent effect of Grb10 is wortmannin sensitive and was also seen at a lower level in cells in which c-kit was not expressed. Expression of a Grb10 mutant lacking the SH2 domain as well as a mutant lacking the PH domain did not influence Akt activity. Grb10-induced Akt activation was observed without increased phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-kinase) activity, suggesting that Grb10 is a positive regulator of Akt downstream of PI3-kinase. Significantly, deficient activation of Akt by a constitutively activated c-kit mutant lacking the binding site for PI3-kinase (c-kitD814V/Y719F) could be fully compensated by overexpression of Grb10. In Ba/F3 cells, the incapacity of c-kitD814V/Y719F to induce interleukin-3 (IL-3)-independent growth could be rescued by overexpression of Grb10. In contrast, expression of the SH2 deletion mutant of Grb10 together with c-kitD814V/Y719F did not render Ba/F3 cells independent of IL-3. In summary, we provide evidence that Grb10 is part of the c-kit signaling pathway and that the expression level of Grb10 critically influences Akt activity. We propose a model in which Grb10 acts as a coactivator for Akt by virtue of its ability to form a complex with Akt and its SH2 domain-dependent translocation to the cell membrane. 相似文献

Grb7, Grb10, and Grb14 are members of a distinct family of adapter proteins that interact with various receptor tyrosine kinases upon receptor activation. Proteins in this family contain several modular signaling domains including a pleckstrin homology (PH) domain, a BPS (between PH and SH2) domain, and a C-terminal Src homology 2 (SH2) domain. Although SH2 domains are typically monomeric, we show that the Grb10 SH2 domain and also full-length Grb10 gamma are dimeric in solution under physiologic conditions. The crystal structure of the Grb10 SH2 domain at 1.65-A resolution reveals a non-covalent dimer whose interface comprises residues within and flanking the C-terminal alpha helix, which are conserved in the Grb7/Grb10/Grb14 family but not in other SH2 domains. Val-522 in the BG loop (BG3) and Asp-500 in the EF loop (EF1) are positioned to interfere with the binding of the P+3 residue of a phosphopeptide ligand. These structural features of the Grb10 SH2 domain will favor binding of dimeric, turn-containing phosphotyrosine sequences, such as the phosphorylated activation loops in the two beta subunits of the insulin and insulin-like growth factor-1 receptors. Moreover, the structure suggests the mechanism by which the Grb7 SH2 domain binds selectively to pTyr-1139 (pYVNQ) in Her2, which along with Grb7 is co-amplified in human breast cancers. 相似文献

Grb14, a member of the Grb7-10-14 family of cytoplasmic adaptor proteins, is a tissue-specific negative regulator of insulin signaling. Grb7-10-14 contain several signaling modules, including a Ras-associating (RA) domain, a pleckstrin-homology (PH) domain, a family-specific BPS (between PH and SH2) region, and a C-terminal Src-homology-2 (SH2) domain. We showed previously that the RA and PH domains, along with the BPS region and SH2 domain, are necessary for downregulation of insulin signaling. Here, we report the crystal structure at 2.4-Å resolution of the Grb14 RA and PH domains in complex with GTP-loaded H-Ras (G12V). The structure reveals that the Grb14 RA and PH domains form an integrated structural unit capable of binding simultaneously to small GTPases and phosphoinositide lipids. The overall mode of binding of the Grb14 RA domain to activated H-Ras is similar to that of the RA domains of RalGDS and Raf1 but with important distinctions. The integrated RA-PH structural unit in Grb7-10-14 is also found in a second adaptor family that includes Rap1-interacting adaptor molecule (RIAM) and lamellipodin, proteins involved in actin-cytoskeleton rearrangement. The structure of Grb14 RA-PH in complex with H-Ras represents the first detailed molecular characterization of tandem RA-PH domains bound to a small GTPase and provides insights into the molecular basis for specificity. 相似文献

The two SH3 domains and one SH2 domain containing adaptor protein Grb2 is an essential element of the Ras signaling pathway in multiple systems. The SH2 domain of Grb2 recognizes and interacts with phosphotyrosine residues on activated tyrosine kinases, whereas the SH3 domains bind to several proline-rich domain-containing proteins such as Sos1. To define the difference in Grb2-associated proteins in hepatocarcinoma cells, we performed coprecipitation analysis using recombinant GST-Grb2 fusion proteins and found that several protein components (p170, p125, p100, and p80) differently associated with GST-Grb2 proteins in human Chang liver and hepatocarcinoma HepG2 cells. Sos1 and p80 proteins dominantly bind to Grb2 fusion proteins in Chang liver, whereas p100 remarkably associate with Grb2 in HepG2 cells. Also GST-Grb2 SH2 proteins exclusively bound to the p46(Shc), p52(Shc), and p66(Shc) are important adaptors of the Ras pathway in HepG2 cells. The p100 protein has been identified as dynamin II. We observed that the N-SH3 and C-SH3 domains of Grb2 fusion proteins coprecipitated with dynamin II besides Sos1. These results suggest that dynamin II may be a functional molecule involved in Grb2-mediated signaling pathway on Ras activation for tumor progression and differentiation of hepatocarcinoma cells. 相似文献

The cytosolic 185 and 210 kDa Bcr-Abl protein tyrosine kinases play important roles in the development of Philadelphia chromosome positive (Ph+) chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph+ ALL). p185 and p210 Bcr-Abl contain identical abl-encoded sequences juxtaposed to a variable number of bcr-derived amino acids. As the mitogenic and transforming activities of tyrosine kinases involve stimulation of the Ras pathway, we analyzed Bcr-Abl oncoproteins for interactions with cytoplasmic proteins that mediate Ras activation. Such polypeptides include Grb2, which comprises a single Src homology 2 (SH2) domain flanked by two SH3 domains, and the 66, 52 and 46 kDa Shc proteins which possess an SH2 domain in their carboxy-terminus. Grb2 associates with tyrosine phosphorylated proteins through its SH2 domain, and with the Ras guanine nucleotide releasing protein mSos1 through its SH3 domains. mSos1 stimulates conversion of the inactive GDP-bound form of Ras to the active GTP-bound state. In bcr-abl-transformed cells, Grb2 and mSos1 formed a physical complex with Bcr-Abl. In vitro, the Grb2 SH2 domain bound Bcr-Abl through recognition of a tyrosine phosphorylation site within the amino-terminal bcr-encoded sequence (p.Tyr177-Val-Asn-Val), that is common to both Bcr-Abl proteins. These results suggest that autophosphorylation within the Bcr element of Bcr-Abl creates a direct physical link to Grb2-mSos1, and potentially to the Ras pathway, and thereby modifies the target specificity of the Abl tyrosine kinase.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Mouse alpha1-syntrophin binding to Grb2: further evidence of a role for syntrophin in cell signaling
Syntrophins have been proposed to serve as adapter proteins. Syntrophins are found in the dystrophin glycoprotein complex (DGC); defects in the constituents of this complex are linked to various muscular dystrophies. Blot overlay experiments demonstrate that alpha-dystroglycan, beta-dystroglycan, and syntrophins all bind Grb2, the growth factor receptor bound adapter protein. Mouse alpha1-syntrophin sequences were produced as chimeric fusion proteins in bacteria and found to also bind Grb2 in a Ca2+-independent manner. This binding was localized to the proline rich sequences adjacent to and overlapping with the N-terminal pleckstrin homology domain (PH1). Grb2 bound syntrophin with an apparent KD of 563 +/- 15 nM. Grb2-C-SH3 domain bound syntrophin with slightly higher affinity than Grb2-N-SH3 domain. Crk-L, an SH2/SH3 protein of similar domain structure but different specificity, does not bind these syntrophin sequences. 相似文献

Adapter proteins such as Grb2 play a central role in the formation of signaling complexes through their association with multiple protein binding partners. These interactions are mediated by specialized domains such as the well-characterized Src homology SH2 and SH3 motifs. Using yeast three-hybrid technology, we have identified a novel adapter protein, expressed predominantly in T lymphocytes, that associates with the activated form of the costimulatory receptor, CD28. The protein is a member of the Grb2 family of adapter proteins and contains an SH3-SH2-SH3 domain structure. A unique glutamine/proline-rich domain (insert domain) of unknown function is situated between the SH2 and N-terminal SH3 domains. We term this protein GRID for Grb2-related protein with insert domain. GRID coimmunoprecipitates with CD28 from Jurkat cell lysates following activation of CD28. Using mutants of CD28 and GRID, we demonstrate that interaction between the proteins is dependent on phosphorylation of CD28 at tyrosine 173 and integrity of the GRID SH2 domain, although there are also subsidiary stabilizing contacts between the PXXP motifs of CD28 and the GRID C-terminal SH3 domain. In addition to CD28, GRID interacts with a number of other T cell signaling proteins, including SLP-76 (SH2 domain-containing leukocyte protein of 76 kDa), p62dok, and RACK-1 (receptor for activated protein kinase C-1). These findings suggest that GRID functions as an adapter protein in the CD28-mediated costimulatory pathway in T cells. 相似文献

Many retinal degenerative diseases show an early loss of rod cells followed by cone cells. In these degenerations the pathological phenotype is apoptosis. We have previously demonstrated the light-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation of the insulin receptor in the retina, which leads to the activation of anti-apoptotic signaling molecules. The mechanism of the regulation of the insulin receptor in the retina is not known. Yeast two-hybrid screening of a bovine retinal cDNA library with the cytoplasmic domain of the retinal insulin receptor (IRbeta) identified a member of the Grb7 (growth factor receptor-bound protein 7) gene family, Grb14. In this report, we describe the unique features of Grb14. Grb14 forms a specific complex with the cytoplasmic domain of IRbeta when both are expressed as hybrid proteins in yeast cells. This interaction is strictly dependent upon receptor tyrosine kinase activity. Deletion mutagenesis on Grb14 indicated a phosphorylated insulin receptor interacting (PIR) domain between the PH (pleckstrin homology) and SH2 (Src homology) domains that binds to IRbeta. Nuclear import assays in yeast indicated the presence of a functional nuclear localization signal in Grb14 between amino acids 63 and 68 (RRKKD). Subcellular localization of isolated retinas probed with anti-Grb14 antibody further confirmed the presence of Grb14 in nuclear fractions. Analysis using a protein-lipid overlay assay indicated binding of Grb14 and its PH domain to D3 phosphoinositides. In addition, Grb14-phosphoinositide 3,4,5-trisphosphate complexes are detected in lysates prepared from insulin-stimulated retina tissues, whereas Grb14-phosphoinositide 4,5-bisphosphate interactions are observed under non-insulin stimulated conditions. These findings suggest that Grb14 could be a diverse regulator of insulin receptor mediated pathways in the retina. 相似文献

The adaptor protein Grb2 is recruited to intracellular early signalling complexes of many receptor tyrosine kinases and plays an important role transducing signals leading to MAP kinase activation. To date the SH2 domain of Grb2 has been shown to mediate receptor interactions with phosphorylated tyrosine residues sited directly on the receptor or on auxiliary docking proteins. Here we report that FGFR2 recruits Grb2 through its C-terminal SH3 domain. The binding site of this domain was mapped to the proline-rich C-terminus of the receptor. Deletion of the last 10 amino acids of FGFR2 abrogates interaction with Grb2. Synthetic peptides based on the C-terminus of FGFR2 bind to full length Grb2 with low micromolar affinity. The function of this novel mode of Grb2 binding provides resistance to site-specific Shp2-mediated receptor dephosphorylation. 相似文献

Grb7 is an adapter-type signaling protein, which is recruited via its SH2 domain to a variety of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs), including ErbB2 and ErbB3. It is overexpressed in breast, esophageal, and gastric cancers, and may contribute to the invasive potential of cancer cells. Molecular interactions involving Grb7 therefore provide attractive targets for therapeutic intervention. We have utilized phage display random peptide libraries as a source of small peptide ligands to the SH2 domain of Grb7. Screening these libraries against purified Grb7 SH2 resulted in the identification of Grb7-binding peptide phage clones that contained a non-phosphorylated Tyr-X-Asn (YXN) motif. The tyrosine-phosphorylated form of this motif is characteristic of Grb7 SH2 domain binding sites identified in RTKs and other signaling proteins such as Shc. Peptides that are non-phosphorylated have greater potential in the development of therapeutics because of the instability of a phosphate group in vivo. Using a biased library approach with this conserved YXN motif, we identified seven different peptide phage clones, which bind specifically to the SH2 domain of Grb7. These peptides did not bind to the SH2 domain of Grb2 (which also selects for Asn at pY(+2)) or Grb14, a closely related family member. The cyclic structure of the peptides was required to bind to the Grb7 SH2 domain. Importantly, the synthetic Grb7-binding peptide G7-18 in cell lysates was able to specifically inhibit the association of Grb7 with the ErbB family of RTKs, in particular ErbB3, in a dose-dependent manner. These peptides will be useful in the development of targeted molecular therapeutics for cancers overexpressing Grb7 and in the development of Grb7-specific inhibitors to gain a complete understanding of the physiological role of Grb7. 相似文献

Grb10 has been described as a cellular partner of several receptor tyrosine kinases, including the insulin receptor (IR) and the insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) receptor (IGF-IR). Its cellular role is still unclear and a positive as well as an inhibitory role in mitogenesis depending on the cell context has been implicated. We have tested other mitogenic receptor tyrosine kinases as putative Grb10 partners and have identified the activated forms of platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) receptor beta (PDGFRbeta), hepatocyte growth factor receptor (Met), and fibroblast growth factor receptor as candidates. We have mapped Y771 as a PDFGRbeta site that is involved in the association with Grb10 via its SH2 domain. We have further investigated the putative role of Grb10 in mitogenesis with four independent experimental strategies and found that all consistently suggested a role as a positive, stimulatory signaling adaptor in normal fibroblasts. (i) Complete Grb10 expression from cDNA with an ecdysone-regulated transient expression system stimulated PDGF-BB-, IGF-I, and insulin- but not epidermal growth factor (EGF)-induced DNA synthesis in an ecdysone dose-responsive fashion. (ii) Microinjection of the (dominant-negative) Grb10 SH2 domain interfered with PDGF-BB- and insulin-induced DNA synthesis. (iii) Alternative experiments were based on cell-permeable fusion peptides with the Drosophila antennapedia homeodomain which effectively traverse the plasma membrane of cultured cells. A cell-permeable Grb10 SH2 domain similarly interfered with PDGF-BB-, IGF-I-, and insulin-induced DNA synthesis. In contrast, a cell-permeable Grb10 Pro-rich putative SH3 domain binding region interfered with IGF-I- and insulin- but not with PDGF-BB- or EGF-induced DNA synthesis. (iv) Transient overexpression of complete Grb10 increased whereas cell-permeable Grb10 SH2 domain fusion peptides substantially decreased the cell proliferation rate (as measured by cell numbers) in normal fibroblasts. These experimental strategies independently suggest that Grb10 functions as a positive, stimulatory, mitogenic signaling adapter in PDGF-BB, IGF-I, and insulin action. This function appears to involve the Grb10 SH2 domain, a novel sequence termed BPS, and the Pro-rich putative SH3 domain binding region in IGF-I- and insulin-mediated mitogenesis. In contrast, PDGF-BB-mediated mitogenesis appears to depend on the SH2 but not on the Pro-rich region and may involve other, unidentified Grb10 domains. Distinct protein domains may help to define specific Grb10 functions in different signaling pathways. 相似文献

Grb7 is a member of the Grb7 family of proteins, which also includes Grb10 and Grb14. All three proteins have been found to be overexpressed in certain cancers and cancer cell lines. In particular, Grb7 (along with the receptor tyrosine kinase erbB2) is overexpressed in 20%–30% of breast cancers. Grb7 binds to erbB2 and may be involved in cell signaling pathways that promote the formation of metastases and inflammatory responses. In a prior study, we reported the solution structure of the Grb7-SH2/erbB2 peptide complex. In this study, T1, T2, and steady-state NOE measurements were performed on the Grb7-SH2 domain, and the backbone relaxation behavior of the domain is discussed with respect to the potential function of an insert region present in all three members of this protein family. Isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) studies were completed measuring the thermodynamic parameters of the binding of a 10-residue phosphorylated peptide representative of erbB2 to the SH2 domain. These measurements are compared to calorimetric studies performed on other SH2 domain/phosphorylated peptide complexes available in the literature. 相似文献

Adaptor proteins mediate signal transduction from cell surface receptors to downstream signaling pathways. The Grb7 protein family of adaptor proteins is constituted by Grb7, Grb10, and Grb14. This protein family has been shown to be overexpressed in certain cancers and cancer cell lines. Grb7‐mediated cell migration has been shown to proceed through a focal adhesion kinase (FAK)/Grb7 pathway, although the specific participants downstream of Grb7 in cell migration signaling have not been fully determined. In this study, we report that Grb7 interacts with Hax‐1, a cytoskeletal‐associated protein found overexpressed in metastatic tumors and cancer cell lines. Additionally, in yeast 2‐hybrid assays, we show that the interaction is specific to the Grb7‐RA and ‐PH domains. We have also demonstrated that full‐length Grb7 and Hax‐1 interact in mammalian cells and that Grb7 is tyrosine phosphorylated. Isothermal titration calorimetry measurements demonstrate the Grb7‐RA‐PH domains bind to the Grb7‐SH2 domain with micromolar affinity, suggesting full‐length Grb7 can exist in a head‐to‐tail conformational state that could serve a self‐regulatory function.

Adaptor proteins Grb7 and Grb2 have been implicated as being 2 potential therapeutic targets in several human cancers, especially those that overexpress ErbB2. These 2 proteins contain both a SH2 domain (Src homology 2) that binds to phosphorylated tyrosine residues contained within ErbB2 and other specific protein targets. Two assays based on enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and fluorescence polarization methods have been developed and validated to find and rank inhibitors for both proteins binding to the pY(1139). Fluorescence polarization assays allowed the authors to determine quickly and reproducibly affinities of peptides from low nanomolar to high micromolar range and to compare them directly for Grb7 and Grb2. As a result, the assays have identified a known peptidomimetic Grb2 SH2 inhibitor (mAZ-pTyr-(alphaMe)pTyr-Asn-NH(2)) that exhibits the most potent affinity for the Grb7 SH2 domain described to date. 相似文献

Grb14, a member of the Grb7 adaptor protein family, possesses a pleckstrin homology (PH) domain, a C-terminal Src homology-2 (SH2) domain, and an intervening stretch of approximately 45 residues known as the BPS region, which is unique to this adaptor family. Previous studies have demonstrated that Grb14 is a tissue-specific negative regulator of insulin receptor signaling and that inhibition is mediated by the BPS region. We have determined the crystal structure of the Grb14 BPS region in complex with the tyrosine kinase domain of the insulin receptor. The structure reveals that the N-terminal portion of the BPS region binds as a pseudosubstrate inhibitor in the substrate peptide binding groove of the kinase. Together with the crystal structure of the SH2 domain, we present a model for the interaction of Grb14 with the insulin receptor, which indicates how Grb14 functions as a selective protein inhibitor of insulin signaling. 相似文献
