Several mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinases play critical roles in nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) activation. We recently reported that the overexpression of transforming growth factor-beta-activated kinase 1 (TAK1), a member of the mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase family, together with its activator TAK1-binding protein 1 (TAB1) stimulates NF-kappaB activation. Here we investigated the molecular mechanism of TAK1-induced NF-kappaB activation. Dominant negative mutants of IkappaB kinase (IKK) alpha and IKKbeta inhibited TAK1-induced NF-kappaB activation. TAK1 activated IKKalpha and IKKbeta in the presence of TAB1. IKKalpha and IKKbeta were coimmunoprecipitated with TAK1 in the absence of TAB1. TAB1-induced TAK1 activation promoted the dissociation of active forms of IKKalpha and IKKbeta from active TAK1, whereas the IKK mutants remained to interact with active TAK1. Furthermore, tumor necrosis factor-alpha activated endogenous TAK1, and the kinase-negative TAK1 acted as a dominant negative inhibitor against tumor necrosis factor-alpha-induced NF-kappaB activation. These results demonstrated a novel signaling pathway to NF-kappaB activation through TAK1 in which TAK1 may act as a regulatory kinase of IKKs. 相似文献

We have identified a fourth splice variant of the TGF beta-activated kinase (TAK1), called TAK1-d, and identified an error in the previously published TAK1-c sequence. Our data shows that the c and d variants encode proteins whose carboxyl ends differ markedly from those of variants a and b. Analysis of the human TAK1 gene sequence, located at 6q16.1-q16.3, shows that the coding sequence is organised in 17 exons. The four splice variants result from alternative splicing of exons 12 and 16, the reading frame of exon 17 being determined by the presence or absence of exon 16. Study of the relative levels of expression of the four splice variants showed significant variations between tissues. Our evidence suggests that the alternative splicing of the TAK1 mRNA may have important functional implications. 相似文献

The inositol pyrophosphate disphosphoinositol pentakisphosphate (PP-InsP(3)/InsP(7)) is formed in mammals by two recently cloned inositol hexakiphosphate kinases, InsP(6)K1 and InsP(6)K2 (Saiardi, A., Erdjument-Bromage, H., Snowman, A. M., Tempst, P., and Snyder, S. H. (1999) Curr. Biol. 9, 1323-1326). We now report the identification, cloning, and characterization of a third InsP(7) forming enzyme designated InsP(6)K3. InsP(6)K3 displays 50 and 45% sequence identity to InsP(6)K1 and InsP(6)K2, respectively, with a smaller mass (46 kDa) and a more basic character than the other two enzymes. InsP(6)K3 is most enriched in the brain where its localization resembles InsP(6)K1 and InsP(6)K2. Intracellular disposition discriminates the three enzymes with InsP(6)K2 being exclusively nuclear, InsP(6)K3 predominating in the cytoplasm, and InsP(6)K1 displaying comparable nuclear and cytosolic densities. 相似文献

Gene expression requires proper messenger RNA (mRNA) export and translation. However, the functional links between these consecutive steps have not been fully defined. Gle1 is an essential, conserved mRNA export factor whose export function is dependent on the small molecule inositol hexakisphosphate (IP(6)). Here, we show that both Gle1 and IP(6) are required for efficient translation termination in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and that Gle1 interacts with termination factors. In addition, Gle1 has a conserved physical association with the initiation factor eIF3, and gle1 mutants display genetic interactions with the eIF3 mutant nip1-1. Strikingly, gle1 mutants have defects in initiation, whereas strains lacking IP(6) do not. We propose that Gle1 functions together with IP(6) and the DEAD-box protein Dbp5 to regulate termination. However, Gle1 also independently mediates initiation. Thus, Gle1 is uniquely positioned to coordinate the mRNA export and translation mechanisms. These results directly impact models for perturbation of Gle1 function in pathophysiology. 相似文献

Over 30 inositol polyphosphates are known to exist in mammalian cells; however, the majority of them have uncharacterized functions. In this study we investigated the molecular basis of synthesis of highly phosphorylated inositol polyphosphates (such as inositol tetrakisphosphate, inositol pentakisphosphate (IP5), and inositol hexakisphosphate (IP6)) in rat cells. We report that heterologous expression of rat inositol polyphosphate kinases rIPK2, a dual specificity inositol trisphosphate/inositol tetrakisphosphate kinase, and rIPK1, an IP5 2-kinase, were sufficient to recapitulate IP6 synthesis from inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate in mutant yeast cells. Overexpression of rIPK2 in Rat-1 cells increased inositol 1,3,4,5,6-pentakisphosphate (I(1,3,4,5,6)P5) levels about 2-3-fold compared with control. Likewise in Rat-1 cells, overexpression of rIPK1 was capable of completely converting I(1,3,4,5,6)P5 to IP6. Simultaneous overexpression of both rIPK2 and rIPK1 in Rat-1 cells increased both IP5 and IP6 levels. To reduce IPK2 activity in Rat-1 cells, we introduced vector-based short interference RNA against rIPK2. Cells harboring the short interference RNA had a 90% reduction of mRNA levels and a 75% decrease of I(1,3,4,5,6)P5. These data confirm the involvement of IPK2 and IPK1 in the conversion of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate to IP6 in rat cells. Furthermore these data suggest that rIPK2 and rIPK1 act as key determining steps in production of IP5 and IP6, respectively. The ability to modulate the intracellular inositol polyphosphate levels by altering IPK2 and IPK1 expression in rat cells will provide powerful tools to study the roles of I(1,3,4,5,6)P5 and IP6 in cell signaling. 相似文献

Opposing effects of inositol hexakisphosphate on rod arrestin and arrestin2 self-association 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The robust cooperative formation of rod arrestin tetramers has been well-established, whereas the ability of other members of the arrestin family to self-associate remains controversial. Here, we used purified arrestins and multi-angle light scattering to quantitatively compare the propensity of the four mammalian arrestin subtypes to self-associate. Both non-visual and cone arrestins only form oligomers at very high non-physiological concentrations. However, inositol hexakisphosphate (IP6), a fairly abundant form of inositol in the cytoplasm, greatly facilitates self-association of arrestin2. Arrestin2 self-association equilibrium constants in the presence of 100 microM IP6 suggest that an appreciable proportion could exist in an oligomeric state but only in intracellular compartments where its concentration is 5-10-fold higher than average. In contrast to arrestin2, IP6 inhibits self-association of rod arrestin, indicating that the structure of these two tetramers in solution is likely different. 相似文献

The enzyme(s) responsible for the production of inositol hexakisphosphate (InsP(6)) in vertebrate cells are unknown. In fungal cells, a 2-kinase designated Ipk1 is responsible for synthesis of InsP(6) by phosphorylation of inositol 1,3,4,5,6-pentakisphosphate (InsP(5)). Based on limited conserved sequence motifs among five Ipk1 proteins from different fungal species, we have identified a human genomic DNA sequence on chromosome 9 that encodes human inositol 1,3,4,5,6-pentakisphosphate 2-kinase (InsP(5) 2-kinase). Recombinant human enzyme was produced in Sf21 cells, purified, and shown to catalyze the synthesis of InsP(6) or phytic acid in vitro. The recombinant protein converted 31 nmol of InsP(5) to InsP(6)/min/mg of protein (V(max)). The Michaelis-Menten constant for InsP(5) was 0.4 microM and for ATP was 21 microM. Saccharomyces cerevisiae lacking IPK1 do not produce InsP(6) and show lethality in combination with a gle1 mutant allele. Here we show that expression of the human InsP(5) 2-kinase in a yeast ipk1 null strain restored the synthesis of InsP(6) and rescued the gle1-2 ipk1-4 lethal phenotype. Northern analysis on human tissues showed expression of the human InsP(5) 2-kinase mRNA predominantly in brain, heart, placenta, and testis. The isolation of the gene responsible for InsP(6) synthesis in mammalian cells will allow for further studies of the InsP(6) signaling functions. 相似文献

Medium conditioned by Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells transfected with the simian pre-pro-TGF beta 1 cDNA contains high levels of latent TGF beta 1. The amino-terminal region of the TGF beta 1 precursor is secreted and can be detected in the conditioned medium by immunoblotting using peptide antibodies specific for amino-terminal peptides. Chemical cross-linking of CHO-conditioned medium using bis-(sulfosuccinimidyl)-suberate (BS3) followed by immunoblot analyses indicates that latent recombinant TGF beta 1 contains both the cleaved amino-terminal glycopeptide and mature TGF beta 1 polypeptide in a noncovalent association and that this association confers latency. The data presented here do not support the involvement of a unique TGF beta binding protein(s) in latent recombinant TGF beta 1. Plasmin treatment of CHO-conditioned medium resulted in the appearance of TGF beta competing activity. In addition, immunoblot analysis of plasmin-treated CHO-conditioned medium indicates that the amino-terminal glycopeptide is partially degraded and that mature TGF beta 1 is released. Thus, activation of latent TGF beta 1 may occur by proteolytic nicking within the amino-terminal glycopeptide thereby causing a disruption of tertiary structure and noncovalent bonds, which results in the release of active, mature TGF beta 1. Acid activation of latent TGF beta, in comparison, appears to be due to dissociation of the amino-terminal glycopeptide from the mature polypeptide. 相似文献

Our previous results have shown that transforming growth factor beta (TGFbeta) rapidly activates Ras, as well as both ERKs and SAPKs. In order to address the biological significance of the activation of these pathways by TGFbeta, here we examined the role of the Ras/MAPK pathways and the Smads in TGFbeta(3) induction of TGFbeta(1) expression in untransformed lung and intestinal epithelial cells. Expression of either a dominant-negative mutant of Ras (RasN17) or a dominant-negative mutant of MKK4 (DN MKK4), or addition of the MEK1 inhibitor PD98059, inhibited the ability of TGFbeta(3) to induce AP-1 complex formation at the TGFbeta(1) promoter, and the subsequent induction of TGFbeta(1) mRNA. The primary components present in this TGFbeta(3)-inducible AP-1 complex at the TGFbeta(1) promoter were JunD and Fra-2, although c-Jun and FosB were also involved. Furthermore, deletion of the AP-1 site in the TGFbeta(1) promoter or addition of PD98059 inhibited the ability of TGFbeta(3) to stimulate TGFbeta(1) promoter activity. Collectively, our data demonstrate that TGFbeta(3) induction of TGFbeta(1) is mediated through a signaling cascade consisting of Ras, the MAPKKs MKK4 and MEK1, the MAPKs SAPKs and ERKs, and the specific AP-1 proteins Fra-2 and JunD. Although Smad3 and Smad4 were not detectable in TGFbeta(3)-inducible AP-1 complexes at the TGFbeta(1) promoter, stable expression of dominant-negative Smad3 could significantly inhibit the ability of TGFbeta(3) to stimulate TGFbeta(1) promoter activity. Transient expression of dominant-negative Smad4 also inhibited the ability of TGFbeta(3) to transactivate the TGFbeta(1) promoter. Thus, although the Ras/MAPK pathways are essential for TGFbeta(3) induction of TGFbeta(1), Smads may only contribute to this biological response in an indirect manner. 相似文献

Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha) triggers a signaling pathway converging on the activation of NF-kappaB, which forms the basis for many physiological and pathological processes. In a kinase gene screen using a NF-kappaB reporter, we observed that overexpression of casein kinase 1alpha (CK1alpha) enhanced TNFalpha-induced NF-kappaB activation, and a CK1alpha kinase dead mutant, CK1alpha (K46A), reduced NF-kappaB activation induced by TNFalpha. We subsequently demonstrated that CK1alpha interacted with receptor interacting protein 1 (RIP1) but not with TRADD, TRAF2, MEKK3, IKKalpha, IKKbeta, or IKKgamma in mammalian cells. RIP1 is an indispensable molecule in TNFalpha/NF-kappaB signaling. We demonstrated that CK1alpha interacted with and phosphorylated RIP1 at the intermediate domain. Finally, we showed that CK1alpha enhanced RIP1-mediated NF-kappaB activation. Taken together, our studies suggest that CK1alpha is another kinase that regulates RIP1 function in NF-kappaB activation. 相似文献

Diphosphoinositol-pentakisphosphate (InsP7) and bis-diphosphoinositol tetrakisphosphate (InsP8) possess pyrophosphate bonds. InsP7 is formed from inositol hexakisphosphate (InsP6) by recently identified InsP6 kinases designated InsP6K1 and InsP6K2. We now report the identification, cloning, and characterization of a novel protein, GRAB (guanine nucleotide exchange factor for Rab3A), which interacts with both InsP6K1 and Rab3A, a Ras-like GTPase that regulates synaptic vesicle exocytosis. GRAB is a physiologic GEF (guanine nucleotide exchange factor) for Rab3A. Consistent with a role of Rab3A in synaptic vesicle exocytosis, GRAB regulates depolarization-induced release of dopamine from PC12 cells and nicotinic agonist-induced hGH release from bovine adrenal chromaffin cells. The association of InsP6K1 with GRAB fits with a role for InsP7 in vesicle exocytosis. 相似文献

The multifunctional cytokine transforming growth factor beta (TGFbeta) exerts many of its effects through its regulation of extracellular matrix components, including fibronectin (FN). Although expression of both TGFbeta and FN are essential for embryonic development and wound healing in the adult, overexpression leads to excessive deposition of extracellular matrix observed in many fibroproliferative disorders. We previously have demonstrated that TGFbeta-stimulated FN induction requires activation of the c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) pathway; however, the signaling molecules that link the TGFbeta receptors to the JNK pathway remain unknown. We show here that the cytosolic adaptor protein disabled-2 (Dab2) directly stimulates JNK activity, whereas stable small interfering RNA-mediated ablation of Dab2 in NIH3T3 mouse fibroblasts and A10 rat aortic smooth muscle cells demonstrates that its expression is required for TGFbeta-mediated FN induction. We demonstrate that TGFbeta treatment stimulates the association of Dab2 with the mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase, TAK1. Attenuation of cellular TAK1 levels by transient double-stranded RNA oligonucleotide transfection as well as overexpression of kinase-deficient TAK1 leads to abrogation of TGFbeta-stimulated FN induction. Furthermore, cell migration, another JNK-dependent response, is attenuated in NIH3T3-siDab2-expressing clones. We, therefore, delineate a signaling pathway proceeding from the TGFbeta receptors to Dab2 and TAK1, leading to TGFbeta-stimulated JNK activation, FN expression, and cell migration. 相似文献

Saiardi et al. (Saiardi, A., Erdjument-Bromage, H., Snowman, A., Tempst, P., and Snyder, S. H. (1999) Curr. Biol. 9, 1323-1326) previously described the cloning of a kinase from yeast and two kinases from mammals (types 1 and 2), which phosphorylate inositol hexakisphosphate (InsP(6)) to diphosphoinositol pentakisphosphate, a "high energy" candidate regulator of cellular trafficking. We have now studied the significance of InsP(6) kinase activity in Saccharomyces cerevisiae by disrupting the kinase gene. These ip6kDelta cells grew more slowly, their levels of diphosphoinositol polyphosphates were 60-80% lower than wild-type cells, and the cells contained abnormally small and fragmented vacuoles. Novel activities of the mammalian and yeast InsP(6) kinases were identified; inositol pentakisphosphate (InsP(5)) was phosphorylated to diphosphoinositol tetrakisphosphate (PP-InsP(4)), which was further metabolized to a novel compound, tentatively identified as bis-diphosphoinositol trisphosphate. The latter is a new substrate for human diphosphoinositol polyphosphate phosphohydrolase. Kinetic parameters for the mammalian type 1 kinase indicate that InsP(5) (K(m) = 1.2 micrometer) and InsP(6) (K(m) = 6.7 micrometer) compete for phosphorylation in vivo. This is the first time a PP-InsP(4) synthase has been identified. The mammalian type 2 kinase and the yeast kinase are more specialized for the phosphorylation of InsP(6). Synthesis of the diphosphorylated inositol phosphates is thus revealed to be more complex and interdependent than previously envisaged. 相似文献

Effect of transforming growth factor beta-1 on ovine satellite cell proliferation and fusion 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

We have evaluated the effect of transforming growth factor beta-1 (TGF beta-1) on proliferation and fusion of cultured ovine satellite cells isolated from 5-month-old wether lambs. The isolation and culture protocols were validated by clonal analysis of the original cell preparation and assessment of proliferation and fusion of control cultures. Approximately 85% of the original cells isolated were myogenic as assessed by clonal analysis. The ovine cells doubled approximately every 18 hours during their exponential growth period and achieved a maximum percent fusion of 39.5% after 144 hours in culture. TGF beta-1 inhibited fusion of these cells in a dose-dependent manner with half-maximal inhibition occurring at .08 ng/ml. Maximal inhibition (95% suppression) occurred between .1 and .5 ng/ml. TGF Beta-1 (.05-3.0 ng/ml) did not inhibit proliferation of cultured ovine satellite cells in serum-containing medium or in serum-free defined medium. In contrast, TGF beta-1 did significantly suppress serum-stimulated proliferation of either porcine or bovine satellite cells that were isolated by using a procedure identical to that used to isolate the ovine satellite cells. Thus, proliferation of ovine satellite cells appears to respond differently to TGF beta-1 than does proliferation of either porcine or bovine satellite cells. 相似文献
