Activation of Ras/Erk pathway by a novel MET-interacting protein RanBPM 总被引:13,自引:0,他引:13
MET is a receptor protein-tyrosine kinase (RPTK) for hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), which is a multifunctional cytokine controlling cell growth, morphogenesis, and motility. MET overexpression has been identified in a variety of human cancers. Oncogenic missense mutations of the tyrosine kinase domain of the MET gene have been identified in human papillary renal cell carcinomas. In this study, RanBPM, also known as RanBP9, is identified as a novel interacting protein of MET through yeast two-hybrid screen. RanBPM contains a conserved SPRY (repeats in splA and RyR) domain. We demonstrate that RanBPM can interact with MET in vitro and in vivo, and the interaction can be strengthened by HGF stimulation. RanBPM interacts with the tyrosine kinase domain of MET through its SPRY domain. We show that RanBPM can induce GTP-Ras association and Erk phosphorylation and elevate serum response element-luciferase (SRE-LUC) expression, indicating that RanBPM can activate the Ras-Erk-SRE pathway. We demonstrate that RanBPM, which itself is not a guanine exchange protein, stimulates Ras activation by recruiting Sos. On the cellular level, A704 cells, a human renal carcinoma cell line, transfected with RanBPM exhibit increased migration ability. Our data suggest that RanBPM, functioning as an adaptor protein for the MET tyrosine kinase domain, can augment the HGF-MET signaling pathway and that RanBPM overexpression may cause constitutive activation of the Ras signaling pathway. 相似文献

The signal transduction pathways involved in adhesion molecule L1-triggered neuritogenesis and neuroprotection were investigated using the extracellular domain of mouse or human L1 in fusion with the Fc portion of human immunoglobulin G or L1 purified from mouse brain by affinity chromatography. Substrate L1-triggered neuritogenesis and neuroprotection depended on distinct but also overlapping signal transduction pathways and on the expression of L1 at the neuronal cell surface. PI3 kinase inhibitors, Src family kinase inhibitors as well as mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase inhibitors reduced both L1-triggered neuritogenesis and neuroprotection. In contrast, fibroblast growth factor receptor inhibitors, a protein kinase A inhibitor, and an inhibitor of cAMP-mediated signal transduction pathways, blocked neuritogenesis, but did not affect L1-triggered neuroprotection. Proteolytic cleavage of L1 or its interaction partners is necessary for both L1-mediated neuritogensis and neuroprotection. Furthermore, L1-triggered neuroprotection was found to be associated with increased phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinases 1/2, Akt and Bad, and inhibition of caspases. These observations suggest possibilities of differentially targeting signal transduction pathways for L1-dependent neuritogenesis and neuroprotection. 相似文献

MET is a receptor protein tyrosine kinase for hepatocyte growth factor, a multifunctional cytokine controlling cell growth, morphogenesis, and motility. In our previous study, RanBPM/RanBP9, whose name originated from its ability to interact with Ran, was identified as a MET-interacting protein. RanBPM/RanBP9 activates the Ras/Erk signaling pathway by serving as an adaptor protein of MET to recruit Sos. In this study, we identify a protein sharing a high amino acid sequence identity with RanBPM/RanBP9, especially in its SPRY domain, the region responsible for MET binding. This protein lacks the N-terminal poly-proline and poly-glutamine (Poly-PQ) stretch present in RanBPM/RanBP9 and has less homology with RanBPM/RanBP9 in its mid-region. We subsequently named this protein RanBP10 after demonstrating its interaction with Ran. We show that, like RanBPM/RanBP9, RanBP10 interacts with the tyrosine kinase domain of MET via its SPRY domain and these two proteins can compete with each other to bind to MET. Interestingly, unlike RanBPM/RanBP9, overexpression of RanBP10 cannot induce Erk1/2 phosphorylation and serum response element-luciferase (SRE-LUC) reporter gene expression. More importantly, co-transfection of RanBPM/RanBP9 and RanBP10 significantly represses SRE-LUC reporter gene expression induced by overexpression of RanBPM/RanBP9. Additional binding assays demonstrate that RanBP10 fails to interact with Sos, which explains its inability to activate the Ras/Erk pathway. Furthermore, we show that the N-terminus of RanBPM/RanBP9 with the Poly-PQ stretch is required for recruiting Sos and a truncated RanBPM/RanBP9 lacking this region fails to recruit Sos, indicating that the functional difference between RanBP10 and RanBPM/RanBP9 lies in their sequence difference in their N-termini. 相似文献

The thiazolidinedione troglitazone inhibits angiotensin II-induced extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 mitogen-activated protein kinase activity in vascular smooth muscle cells. Activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 by angiotensin II is a multistep process involving both its phosphorylation by mitogen-activated protein kinase extracellular signal-regulated kinase kinase in the cytoplasm and a subsequent translocation to the nucleus. The cytoplasmic activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 in vascular smooth muscle cells proceeds through the protein kinase Czeta --> mitogen-activated protein kinase extracellular signal-regulated kinase kinase --> extracellular signal-regulated kinase pathway. Troglitazone did not affect the angiotensin II-induced activation of protein kinase Czeta or its downstream signaling kinases extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 in the cytosol. In contrast, angiotensin II-induced activation of protein kinase Czeta and extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 in the nucleus were both inhibited by troglitazone. Nuclear translocation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 induced by angiotensin II was completely blocked by troglitazone. Protein kinase Czeta, however, did not translocate upon angiotensin II stimulation. Troglitazone, therefore, inhibits both angiotensin II-induced nuclear translocation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 and the nuclear activity of its upstream signaling kinase protein kinase Czeta. Since extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 nuclear translocation may be a critical signaling step for multiple growth factors that stimulate vascular smooth muscle cells proliferation and migration, troglitazone may provide a new therapeutical approach for the prevention and treatment of atherosclerosis and restenosis. 相似文献

Heat shock protein 27, one of the low molecular weight stress proteins, is recognized as a molecular chaperone; however, other functions have not yet been well established. Phosphorylated heat shock protein 27 levels inversely correlate with the progression of human hepatocellular carcinoma. This study shows that phosphorylated heat shock protein 27 interferes with cell growth of the hepatocellular carcinoma-derived HuH7 cells in the presence of the proinflammatory cytokine, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, via inhibition of the sustained activation of the extracellular signal-regulated kinase signal pathway. The activities of Raf/extracellular signal-regulated kinase and subsequent activator protein-1 transactivation and the induction levels of cyclin D1 were lower in HuH7 cells transfected with phosphorylated heat shock protein 27 than those with unphosphorylated heat shock protein 27. Moreover, phosphorylated heat shock protein 27 up-regulated the levels of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase and mitogen-activated protein kinase phosphatase-1, an inhibitory protein of extracellular signal-regulated kinase. These results indicate that phosphorylated heat shock protein 27 might suppress the extracellular signal-regulated kinase activity in the hepatocellular carcinoma cells via two separate pathways in an inflammatory state. The extracellular signal-regulated kinase activity is inversely correlated with phosphorylated heat shock protein 27 at serine 15 and also in human hepatocellular carcinoma tissues in vivo. Because the extracellular signal-regulated kinase signal pathway is a major proliferation signal of hepatocellular carcinoma, activator protein-1 activation is an early event in hepatocarcinogenesis. These findings strongly suggest that the control of the phosphorylated heat shock protein 27 levels could be a new therapeutic strategy especially to counter the recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma. 相似文献

Axl belongs to a particular subfamily of transmembrane receptor tyrosine kinases, the biological ligand for which is the growth/survival factor Gas6. However, little is known about the molecular mechanisms for Axl activation and signal transduction. We have previously identified a novel interaction between the intracellular domain of Axl and Ran binding protein in microtubule organising centre (RanBPM). In the present study, we investigated further the nature of the RanBPM interaction with Axl. A wide distribution of RanBPM mRNA expression in human tissues and various human cancer cell lines was detected. The strength of interaction of both proteins in yeast was comparable to that with the other Axl-binding proteins phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and Grb2. A truncated version of RanBPM with the SPRY-LisH domain region omitted failed to interact with Axl in yeast. RanBPM was also found to interact in yeast with the Axl homologue, Sky/Tyro3. The interaction between Axl intracellular domain and RanBPM was reproduced in coimmunoprecipitation experiments in both cell-free and mammalian cell systems. Furthermore, coimmunoprecipitation revealed endogenous Axl and RanBPM to interact in several mammalian cell lines in a constitutive manner. Stimulation of COS cells with Gas6 caused increased Axl tyrosine phosphorylation although appeared not to influence the RanBPM-Axl association. In conclusion, we have identified and characterised a novel interaction between RanBPM and the related receptor tyrosine kinases, Axl and Sky. This novel insight into the signalling interactions of Axl and Sky may shed further light on their suspected roles in tumourigenesis, inflammation as well as other cell proliferative diseases. 相似文献

Sustained activation of the Raf/MEK/extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) pathway in infected cells has been shown to be crucial for full replication efficiency of orthopoxviruses in cell culture. In infected cells, this pathway is mainly activated by the vaccinia virus growth factor (VGF), an epidermal growth factor (EGF)-like protein. We show here that chorioallantois vaccinia virus Ankara (CVA), but not modified vaccinia virus Ankara (MVA), induced sustained activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) in infected human 293 cells, although both viruses direct secretion of functional VGF. A CVA mutant lacking the O1L gene (CVA-ΔO1L) demonstrated that the O1 protein was required for sustained upregulation of the ERK1/2 pathway in 293 cells as well as in other mammalian cell lines. The highly conserved orthopoxvirus O1L gene encodes a predicted 78-kDa protein with a hitherto-unknown function. CVA-ΔO1L showed reduced plaque size and an attenuated cytopathic effect (CPE) in infected cell cultures and reduced virulence and spread from lungs to ovaries in intranasally infected BALB/c mice. Reinsertion of an intact O1L gene into MVA, which in its original form harbors a fragmented O1L open reading frame (ORF), restored ERK1/2 activation in 293 cells but did not increase replication and spread of MVA in human or other mammalian cell lines. Thus, the O1 protein was crucial for sustained ERK1/2 activation in CVA- and MVA-infected human cells, complementing the autocrine function of VGF, and enhanced virulence in vivo. 相似文献

90-kDa ribosomal S6 kinase-2 (RSK2) belongs to a family of growth factor-activated serine/threonine kinases composed of two kinase domains connected by a regulatory linker region. The N-terminal kinase of RSK2 is involved in substrate phosphorylation. Its activation requires phosphorylation of the linker region at Ser(369), catalyzed by extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), and at Ser(386), catalyzed by the C-terminal kinase, after its activation by ERK. In addition, the N-terminal kinase must be phosphorylated at Ser(227) in the activation loop by an as yet unidentified kinase. Here, we show that the isolated N-terminal kinase of RSK2 (amino acids 1-360) is phosphorylated at Ser(227) by PDK1, a constitutively active kinase, leading to 100-fold stimulation of kinase activity. In COS7 cells, ectopic PDK1 induced the phosphorylation of full-length RSK2 at Ser(227) and Ser(386), without involvement of ERK, leading to partial activation of RSK2. Similarly, two other members of the RSK family, RSK1 and RSK3, were partially activated by PDK1 in COS7 cells. Finally, our data indicate that full activation of RSK2 by growth factor requires the cooperation of ERK and PDK1 through phosphorylation of Ser(227), Ser(369), and Ser(386). Our study extend recent findings which implicate PDK1 in the activation of protein kinases B and C and p70(S6K), suggesting that PDK1 controls several major growth factor-activated signal transduction pathways. 相似文献

The present study shows that ES products from plerocercoids of Spirometra erinaceieuropaei suppressed interleukin-1beta mRNA expression in lipopolysaccharide-stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophages in the absence or presence of a cyclic AMP analogue, dibutyryl cyclic AMP. Investigation using the inhibitors of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways revealed that extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase 1/2 and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase pathways are crucial for full induction of interleukin-1beta mRNA expression. ES products additionally suppressed interleukin-1beta mRNA expression in the cells treated with p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase inhibitor (SB203580) or extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase 1/2 inhibitor (PD98059). Western blot analysis showed that dibutyryl cyclic AMP enhanced lipopolysaccharide-induced phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase 1/2, p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase and cyclic AMP responsive element binding protein (CREB) and, in turn, we demonstrated that ES products reduced the lipopolysaccharide and dibutyryl cyclic AMP-induced phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase 1/2 and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase, but not cyclic AMP responsive element binding protein. These data demonstrate that ES products from the plerocercoids of S. erinaceieuropaei may evade induction of interleukin-1beta mRNA by inhibiting extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase 1/2 and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase pathways in lipopolysaccharide and/or dibutyryl cyclic AMP-stimulated macrophages. 相似文献

As reports on G protein-coupled receptor signal transduction mechanisms continue to emphasize potential differences in signaling due to relative receptor levels and cell type specificities, the need to study endogenously expressed receptors in appropriate model systems becomes increasingly important. Here we examine signal transduction mechanisms mediated by endogenous kappa-opioid receptors in C6 glioma cells, an astrocytic model system. We find that the kappa-opioid receptor-selective agonist U69,593 stimulates phospholipase C activity, extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 phosphorylation, PYK2 phosphorylation, and DNA synthesis. U69,593-stimulated extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 phosphorylation is shown to be upstream of DNA synthesis as inhibition of signaling components such as pertussis toxin-sensitive G proteins, L-type Ca2+ channels, phospholipase C, intracellular Ca2+ release, protein kinase C, and mitogen-activated protein or extracellular signal-regulated kinase kinase blocks both of these downstream events. In addition, by overexpressing dominant-negative or sequestering mutants, we provide evidence that extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 phosphorylation is Ras-dependent and transduced by Gbetagamma subunits. In summary, we have delineated major features of the mechanism of the mitogenic action of an agonist of the endogenous kappa-opioid receptor in C6 glioma cells. 相似文献

Expression cloning of an activin receptor, a predicted transmembrane serine kinase. 总被引:66,自引:0,他引:66
Activins are involved in the regulation of multiple biological events, ranging from early development to pituitary function. To characterize the cellular mechanisms involved in these processes, cDNAs coding for an activin receptor were cloned from AtT20 mouse corticotropic cells by screening COS cell transfectants for binding of 125I-activin A. The cDNAs code for a protein of 494 amino acids comprising a ligand-binding extracellular domain, a single membrane-spanning domain, and an intracellular kinase domain with predicted serine/threonine specificity. 125I-activin A binds to transfected COS cells with an affinity of 180 pM and can be competed by activin A, activin B, and inhibin A, but not by transforming growth factor beta 1. The kinase domain, but not the extracellular sequence, of the activin receptor is most closely related to the C. elegans daf-1 gene product, a putative transmembrane serine/threonine-specific protein kinase for which the ligand is not known. 相似文献

In this study we have investigated the down-regulation of epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor signaling by protein-tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) in COS1 cells. The 45-kDa variant of the PTP TCPTP (TC45) exits the nucleus upon EGF receptor activation and recognizes the EGF receptor as a cellular substrate. We report that TC45 inhibits the EGF-dependent activation of the c-Jun N-terminal kinase, but does not alter the activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase 2. These data demonstrate that TC45 can regulate selectively mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathways emanating from the EGF receptor. In EGF receptor-mediated signaling, the protein kinase PKB/Akt and the mitogen-activated protein kinase c-Jun N-terminal kinase, but not extracellular signal-regulated kinase 2, function downstream of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase). We have found that TC45 and the TC45-D182A mutant, which is capable of forming stable complexes with TC45 substrates, inhibit almost completely the EGF-dependent activation of PI 3-kinase and PKB/Akt. TC45 and TC45-D182A act upstream of PI 3-kinase, most likely by inhibiting the recruitment of the p85 regulatory subunit of PI 3-kinase by the EGF receptor. Recent studies have indicated that the EGF receptor can be activated in the absence of EGF following integrin ligation. We find that the integrin-mediated activation of PKB/Akt in COS1 cells is abrogated by the specific EGF receptor protein-tyrosine kinase inhibitor tyrphostin AG1478, and that TC45 and TC45-D182A can inhibit activation of PKB/Akt following the attachment of COS1 cells to fibronectin. Thus, TC45 may serve as a negative regulator of growth factor or integrin-induced, EGF receptor-mediated PI 3-kinase signaling. 相似文献

Arsenite is known to be an environmental human carcinogen. However, the mechanism of action of this compound in skin carcinogenesis is not completely clear. Here, we provide evidence that arsenite can induce phosphorylation of histone H3 at serine 10 in a time- and dose-dependent manner in JB6 Cl 41 cells. Arsenite induces phosphorylation of Akt1 at serine 473 and increases Akt1 activity. A dominant-negative mutant of Akt1 inhibits the arsenite-induced phosphorylation of histone H3 at serine 10. Additionally, active Akt1 kinase strongly phosphorylates histone H3 at serine 10 in vitro. The arsenite-induced phosphorylation of histone H3 at serine 10 was almost completely blocked by a dominant-negative mutant of extracellular signal-regulated kinase 2 and the mitogen-activated protein kinase/extracellular signal-regulated kinase inhibitor PD98059. N- or C-terminal mutant mitogen- and stress-activated protein kinase 1 or its inhibitor H89 had no effect on arsenite-induced phosphorylation of histone H3 at serine 10 in JB6 Cl 41 cells. However, cells deficient in p90 ribosomal S6 kinase 2 (Rsk2(-/-)) totally block this phosphorylation in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Taken together, these results suggested that arsenite-induced phosphorylation of histone H3 at serine 10 is mediated by Akt1, extracellular signal-regulated kinase 2 and p90 ribosomal S6 kinase 2 but not mitogen- and stress-activated protein kinase 1. 相似文献

Using a powerful expression cloning method in COS cells, we have cloned the TGF-beta types II and III receptors. The type III TGF-beta receptor is a membrane-bound proteoglycan with a core protein of about 110 kDa. Stable expression of the type III receptor in L6 myoblasts leads to an apparent increase in the ability of the type II receptor to bind iodinated TGF-beta 1. The cloned type II receptor has a predicted protein core of about 60 kDa with a cysteine-rich extracellular domain, a single transmembrane domain, and a functional serine/threonine kinase domain that is homologous to the activin receptor and to the C. elegans protein daf-1. These results implicate serine/threonine phosphorylation as an important mechanism of TGF-beta action. 相似文献

Cloning of DPK, a novel dendritic cell-derived protein kinase activating the ERK1/ERK2 and JNK/SAPK pathways 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Zhang W Chen T Wan T He L Li N Yuan Z Cao X 《Biochemical and biophysical research communications》2000,274(3):872-879
Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascades are the major signaling systems transducing extracellular signals into intracellular responses, which mainly include the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) pathway, the c-Jun N-terminal kinase/stress-activated protein kinase (JNK/SAPK) pathway, and the p38 pathway. From dendritic cell cDNA library, we isolated a full-length cDNA encoding a potentially novel 898-residue kinase, which was designated DPK. The protein contained a potential kinase domain at the N-terminal exhibiting homology with MEKK1-, MEKK2-, MEKK3-, MEKK4-, MEKK5-, Tpl-2-, and p21-activated kinases (PAKs), but no GTPase-binding domain which is characteristic of PAKs. Northern blotting analysis showed that DPK was ubiquitously expressed in normal tissues, with abundant expression in kidney, skeletal muscle, heart, and liver. When overexpressed in transfected NIH3T3 cells, it could activate both the ERK1/ERK2 pathway and the SAPK pathway in a dose-dependent manner, but not affect the p38 pathway. These findings suggested that DPK might be a novel candidate MAPKKK. 相似文献
