The adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) tumor suppressor protein is a multifunctional protein with a well characterized role in the Wnt signal transduction pathway and in cytoskeletal regulation. The SAMP repeats region of APC, an Axin-binding site, is known to be important for tumor suppression and for the developmental function of APC. We performed a yeast two-hybrid screening using the first SAMP motif-containing region of Xenopus APC as bait and obtained several SAMP binding candidates including DDEF2 (development and differentiation enhancing factor 2), which is an ADP-ribosylation factor (Arf) GTPase-activating protein (GAP (ArfGAP)) involved in the regulation of focal adhesions. In vitro and in cells the Src homology 3 (SH3) domain of DDEF2 and its close homolog, DDEF1, are associated with the SAMP motif of APC competitively with Axin1. Moreover, NMR chemical shift perturbation experiments revealed that the SAMP motif interacts at the same surface of the SH3 domain of DDEF as the known SH3 binding motif, PXXP. When fluorescent protein-tagged APC and DDEF are expressed in Xenopus A6 cells, co-localization at microtubule ends is observed. Overexpression and RNA interference experiments indicate that APC and DDEFs cooperatively regulate the distributions of microtubules and focal adhesions. Our findings reveal that the SAMP motif of APC specifically binds to the SH3 domains of DDEFs, providing new insights into the functions of APC in cell migration. 相似文献

The Rac-specific guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) Asef is activated by binding to the tumor suppressor adenomatous polyposis coli mutant, which is found in sporadic and familial colorectal tumors. This activated Asef is involved in the migration of colorectal tumor cells. The GEFs for Rho family GTPases contain the Dbl homology (DH) domain and the pleckstrin homology (PH) domain. When Asef is in the resting state, the GEF activity of the DH-PH module is intramolecularly inhibited by an unidentified mechanism. Asef has a Src homology 3 (SH3) domain in addition to the DH-PH module. In the present study, the three-dimensional structure of Asef was solved in its autoinhibited state. The crystal structure revealed that the SH3 domain binds intramolecularly to the DH domain, thus blocking the Rac-binding site. Furthermore, the RT-loop and the C-terminal region of the SH3 domain interact with the DH domain in a manner completely different from those for the canonical binding to a polyproline-peptide motif. These results demonstrate that the blocking of the Rac-binding site by the SH3 domain is essential for Asef autoinhibition. This may be a common mechanism in other proteins that possess an SH3 domain adjacent to a DH-PH module. 相似文献

Asef (herein called Asef1) was identified as a Rac1-specific exchange factor stimulated by adenomatous polyposis coli (APC), contributing to colorectal cancer cell metastasis. We investigated Asef2, an Asef1 homologue having a similar N-terminal APC binding region (ABR) and Src-homology 3 (SH3) domain. Contrary to previous reports, we found that Asef1 and Asef2 exchange activity is Cdc42 specific. Moreover, the ABR of Asef2 did not function independently but acted in tandem with the SH3 domain to bind APC. The ABRSH3 also bound the C-terminal tail of Asef2, allowing it to function as an autoinhibitory module within the protein. Deletion of the C-terminal tail did not constitutively activate Asef2 as predicted; rather, a conserved C-terminal segment was required for augmented Cdc42 GDP/GTP exchange. Thus, Asef2 activation involves APC releasing the ABRSH3 from the C-terminal tail, resulting in Cdc42 exchange. These results highlight a novel exchange factor regulatory mechanism and establish Asef1 and Asef2 as Cdc42 exchange factors, providing a more appropriate context for understanding the contribution of APC in establishing cell polarity and migration. 相似文献

The CAP-Gly domain of CYLD associates with the proline-rich sequence in NEMO/IKKgamma 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

CYLD was originally identified as the human familial cylindromatosis tumor suppressor. Recently, it was reported that CYLD directly interacts with NEMO/IKKgamma and TRAF2 in the NF-kappaB signaling pathway. The two proteins bind to a region of CYLD that contains a Cys-box motif and the third cytoskeleton-associated protein-glycine conserved (CAP-Gly) domain. Here we report that the third CAP-Gly domain of CYLD specifically interacts with one of the two proline-rich sequences of NEMO/IKKgamma. The tertiary structure of the CAP-Gly domain shares the five-stranded beta sheet topology with the SH3 domain, which is well known as a proline-rich sequence-recognition domain. However, chemical shift mapping revealed that the peptide binding site of the CAP-Gly domain is formed without the long peptide binding loop characteristic of the SH3 domain. Therefore, CAP-Gly is likely to be a novel proline-rich sequence binding domain with a mechanism different from that of the SH3 domain. 相似文献

Intersectin 1L (ITSN1L) acts as a specific guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) for the small guanine nucleotide binding protein Cdc42 via its C‐terminal DH domain. Interestingly, constructs of ITSN1L that comprise additional domains, for instance the five SH3 domains amino‐terminal of the DH domain, were shown to be inhibited in their exchange factor activity. Here, we investigate the inhibitory mechanism of ITSN1L in detail and identify a novel short amino acid motif which mediates autoinhibition. We found this motif to be located in the linker region between the SH3 domains and the DH domain, and we show that within this motif W1221 acts as key residue in establishing the inhibitory interaction. This assigns ITSN1L to a growing class of GEFs that are regulated by a short amino acid motif inhibiting GEF activity by an intramolecular interaction. Moreover, we quantify the interaction between the ITSN1L SH3 domains and the Cdc42 effector N‐WASP using fluorescence anisotropy binding experiments. As the SH3 domains are not involved in autoinhibition, binding of N‐WASP does not release inhibition of nucleotide exchange activity in kinetic experiments, in contrast to earlier observations. 相似文献

Mixed lineage kinase 3 (MLK3) functions as a mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase to activate multiple mitogen-activated protein kinase pathways. Our current studies demonstrate that lack of MLK3 blocks signaling of activated Cdc42 to c-Jun N-terminal kinase, giving strong support for the idea that Cdc42 is a physiological activator of MLK3. We show herein that Cdc42, in a prenylation-dependent manner, targets MLK3 from a perinuclear region to membranes, including the plasma membrane. Cdc42-induced membrane targeting of MLK3 is independent of MLK3 catalytic activity but depends upon an intact Cdc42/Rac-interactive binding motif, consistent with MLK3 membrane translocation being mediated through direct binding of Cdc42. Phosphorylation of the activation loop of MLK3 requires MLK3 catalytic activity and is induced by Cdc42 in a prenylation-independent manner, arguing that Cdc42 binding is sufficient for activation loop autophosphorylation of MLK3. However, membrane targeting is necessary for full activation of MLK3 and maximal signaling to JNK. We previously reported that MLK3 is autoinhibited through an interaction between its N-terminal SH3 domain and a proline-containing sequence found between the leucine zipper and the CRIB motif of MLK3. Thus we propose a model in which GTP-bound Cdc42/Rac binds MLK3 and disrupts SH3-mediated autoinhibition leading to dimerization and activation loop autophosphorylation. Targeting of this partially active MLK3 to membranes likely results in additional phosphorylation events that fully activate MLK3 and its ability to maximally signal through the JNK pathway. 相似文献

EB1 family proteins are evolutionarily conserved proteins that bind microtubule plus-ends and centrosomes and regulate the dynamics and organization of microtubules. Human EB1 family proteins, which include EB1, EBF3, and RP1, also associate with the tumor suppressor protein adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) and p150glued, a component of the dynactin complex. The structural basis for interaction between human EB1 family proteins and their associated proteins has not been defined in detail. EB1 family proteins have a calponin homology (CH) domain at their N terminus and an EB1-like C-terminal motif at their C terminus; the functional importance of these domains has not been determined. To better understand functions of human EB1 family proteins and to reveal functional similarities and differences among these proteins, we performed detailed characterizations of interactions between human EB1 family proteins and their associated proteins. We show that amino acids 1-133 of EB1 and EBF3 and the corresponding region of RP1, which contain a CH domain, are necessary and sufficient for binding microtubules, thus demonstrating for the first time that a CH domain contributes to binding microtubules. EB1 family proteins use overlapping but different regions that contain the EB1-like C-terminal motif to associate with APC and p150glued. Neither APC nor p150glued binding domain is necessary for EB1 or EBF3 to induce microtubule bundling, which requires amino acids 1-181 and 1-185 of EB1 and EBF3, respectively. We also determined that the EB1 family protein-binding regions are amino acids 2781-2820 and 18-111 of APC and p150glued, respectively. 相似文献

The tumor suppressor protein adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) is a multifunctional protein with a well characterized role in the Wnt signal transduction pathway and roles in cytoskeletal regulation and cell polarity. The soluble pool of APC protein in colon epithelial tumor cells exists in two distinct complexes fractionating at approximately 20S and approximately 60S in size. The 20S complex contains components of the beta-catenin destruction complex and probably functions in the Wnt pathway. In this study, we characterized the molecular nature of the 60S APC- containing complex by examining known potential binding partners of APC. 60S APC did not contain EB1 or diaphanous, proteins that have been reported to interact with APC and are implicated in microtubule plus end stabilization. Nor did the two other microtubule associated proteins, MAP4 or KAP3, which is thought to link APC to kinesin motor proteins, associate with the 60S complex. Minor fractions of alpha-tubulin, gamma-tubulin and IQGAP1, a Rac1 and CDC42 effector that interacts with APC, specifically associated with APC in the 60S fraction. We propose that 60S APC is a discrete high molecular weight complex with a novel function in cytoskeletal regulation in epithelial cells apart from its well established role in targeting catenin destruction or its proposed role in microtubule plus end stabilization. 相似文献

The Cdc42 effector IRSp53 generates filopodia by coupling membrane protrusion with actin dynamics 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Lim KB Bu W Goh WI Koh E Ong SH Pawson T Sudhaharan T Ahmed S 《The Journal of biological chemistry》2008,283(29):20454-20472
The Cdc42 effector IRSp53 is a strong inducer of filopodia formation and consists of an Src homology domain 3 (SH3), a potential WW-binding motif, a partial-Cdc42/Rac interacting binding region motif, and an Inverse-Bin-Amphiphysins-Rvs (I-BAR) domain.We show that IRSp53 interacts directly with neuronal Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein (N-WASP) via its SH3 domain and furthermore that N-WASP is required for filopodia formation as IRSp53 failed to induce filopodia formation in N-WASP knock-out (KO) fibroblasts. IRSp53-induced filopodia formation can be reconstituted in N-WASP KO fibroblasts by full-length N-WASP, by N-WASPDeltaWA (a mutant unable to activate the Arp2/3 complex), and by N-WASPH208D (a mutant unable to bind Cdc42). IRSp53 failed to induce filopodia in mammalian enabled (Mena)/VASP KO cells, and N-WASP failed to induce filopodia when IRSp53 was knocked down with RNA interference. The IRSp53 I-BAR domain alone induces dynamic membrane protrusions that lack actin and are smaller than normal filopodia ("partial-filopodia") in both wild-type N-WASP and N-WASP KO cells. We propose that IRSp53 generates filopodia by coupling membrane protrusion through its I-BAR domain with actin dynamics through SH3 domain binding partners, including N-WASP and Mena. 相似文献

The small GTPases Rac1 and Cdc42 are key regulators of the cytoskeleton. We have previously identified the endocytic protein Intersectin as a binding partner and regulator of Cdc42 GTPase-activating protein (CdGAP) with activity towards Rac1 and Cdc42. This interaction is mediated through the SH3D domain of Intersectin and the central domain of CdGAP, which does not contain any typical proline-rich domain or known SH3-binding motif. Here, we have characterized the Intersectin-SH3D/CdGAP interaction. We show that Intersectin-SH3D interacts directly with a small region of CdGAP highly enriched in basic residues and comprising a novel conserved xKx(K/R)K motif. 相似文献

The Saccharomyces cerevisiae PAK (p21-activated kinase) family kinase Ste20 functions in several signal transduction pathways, including pheromone response, filamentous growth, and hyperosmotic resistance. The GTPase Cdc42 localizes and activates Ste20 by binding to an autoinhibitory motif within Ste20 called the CRIB domain. Another factor that functions with Ste20 and Cdc42 is the protein Bem1. Bem1 has two SH3 domains, but target ligands for these domains have not been described. Here we identify an evolutionarily conserved binding site for Bem1 between the CRIB and kinase domains of Ste20. Mutation of tandem proline-rich (PxxP) motifs in this region disrupts Bem1 binding, suggesting that it serves as a ligand for a Bem1 SH3 domain. These PxxP motif mutations affect signaling additively with CRIB domain mutations, indicating that Bem1 and Cdc42 make separable contributions to Ste20 function, which cooperate to promote optimal signaling. This PxxP region also binds another SH3 domain protein, Nbp2, but analysis of bem1Delta versus nbp2Delta strains shows that the signaling defects of PxxP mutants result from impaired binding to Bem1 rather than from impaired binding to Nbp2. Finally, the PxxP mutations also reduce signaling by constitutively active Ste20, suggesting that postactivation functions of PAKs can be promoted by SH3 domain proteins, possibly by colocalizing PAKs with their substrates. The overall results also illustrate how the final signaling function of a protein can be governed by combinatorial addition of multiple, independent protein-protein interaction modules. 相似文献

Src homology 3 domain (SH3)-containing proline-rich protein kinase (SPRK)/mixed-lineage kinase (MLK)-3 is a serine/threonine kinase that upon overexpression in mammalian cells activates the c-Jun NH(2)-terminal kinase pathway. The mechanisms by which SPRK activity is regulated are not well understood. The small Rho family GTPases, Rac and Cdc42, have been shown to bind and modulate the activities of signaling proteins, including SPRK, which contain Cdc42/Rac interactive binding motifs. Coexpression of SPRK and activated Cdc42 increases SPRKs activity. SPRKs Cdc42/Rac interactive binding-like motif contains six of the eight consensus residues. Using a site-directed mutagenesis approach, we show that SPRK contains a functional Cdc42/Rac interactive binding motif that is required for SPRKs association with and activation by Cdc42. However, experiments using a SPRK variant that lacks the COOH-terminal zipper region/basic stretch suggest that this region may also contribute to Cdc42 binding. Unlike the PAK family of protein kinases, we find that the activation of SPRK by Cdc42 cannot be recapitulated in an in vitro system using purified, recombinant proteins. Comparative phosphopeptide mapping demonstrates that coexpression of activated Cdc42 with SPRK alters the in vivo serine/threonine phosphorylation pattern of SPRK suggesting that the mechanism by which Cdc42 increases SPRKs catalytic activity involves a change in the in vivo phosphorylation of SPRK. This is, to the best of our knowledge, the first demonstrated example of a Cdc42-mediated change in the in vivo phosphorylation of a protein kinase. These studies suggest an additional component or cellular environment is required for SPRK activation by Cdc42. 相似文献

The small GTP-binding protein Cdc42, the guanine nucleotide exchange factor Scd1, the p21-activated kinase Shk1, and the adaptor protein Scd2 are involved in the Cdc42-dependent signaling cascade in fission yeast. In the present study, we analyzed the Cdc42 binding and scaffolding activities of Scd2 by co-precipitation assays. We found that two SH3-containing regions, amino acid residues 1-87 (CB1 (Cdc42-binding region 1)) and 110-266 (CB2), of Scd2 can bind to the GTP-bound form of Cdc42. CB2 is cryptic because of the intramolecular binding between the SH3 domain in CB2 (SH3(C)) and the PX domain and binds to Cdc42 only when the Scd2 PB1 domain binds to the PC motif-containing region (residues 760-872) of Scd1. This CB2.Cdc42 association, which would stabilize the open configuration of Scd2, enables the SH3(C) domain to bind to the polyproline motif of Shk1. We also found that the GTP-bound form of Cdc42 binds to the CRIB motif of Shk1 more strongly than to Scd2. Thus, Scd2 functions as a scaffold to form a protein complex, and the GTP-bound Cdc42 might be transferred effectively from the upstream activator Scd1 to the downstream effector Shk1 via Scd2. 相似文献

Novel Src homology 3 domain-binding motifs identified from proteomic screen of a Pro-rich region 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The Src homology (SH) 3 domain has been shown recently to bind peptide sequences that lack the canonical PXXP motif. The diverse specificity in ligand recognition for a group of 15 SH3 domains has now been investigated using arrays of peptides derived from the proline-rich region of the SH2 domain-containing leukocyte protein of 76 kDa (SLP-76). A screen of the peptide arrays using individual or mixed SH3 domains has allowed the identification of a number of candidate SH3-binding peptides. Although some peptides contain the conventional PXXP motif, most are devoid of such a motif and are instead enriched in basic residues. Fluorescent polarization measurements using soluble peptides and purified SH3 domains demonstrated that several SH3 domains, including those from growth factor receptor-bound protein 2 (Grb2), NCK, and phospholipase C (PLC)-gamma1, bound with moderate affinities (10-100 microm) to a group of non-conventional peptides. Of particular interest, the PLC-gamma1 SH3 domain was found to associate with SLP-76 through at least three distinct sites, two of which bore a novel KKPP motif and the other contained the classic PXXP sequence. Intriguingly mutation of critical residues for the three sites not only affected binding of SLP-76 to the PLC-gamma1 SH3 domain but also to the Grb2 C-terminal SH3 domain, indicating that the binding sites in SLP-76 for the two SH3 domains are overlapped. Our studies suggest that the SH3 domain is an inherently promiscuous interaction module capable of binding to peptides that may or may not contain a PXXP motif. Furthermore the identification of numerous non-conventional SH3-binding peptides in SLP-76 implies that the global ligand pool for SH3 domains in a mammalian proteome may be significantly greater than previously acknowledged. 相似文献

Understanding the molecular mechanisms involved in virus replication and particle assembly is of primary fundamental and biomedical importance. Intrinsic conformational disorder plays a prominent role in viral proteins and their interaction with other viral and host cell proteins via transiently populated structural elements. Here, we report on the results of an investigation of an intrinsically disordered 188-residue fragment of the hepatitis C virus non-structural protein 5A (NS5A), which contains a classical poly-proline Src homology 3 (SH3) binding motif, using sensitivity- and resolution-optimized multidimensional NMR methods, complemented by small-angle X-ray scattering data. Our study provides detailed atomic-resolution information on transient local and long-range structure, as well as fast time scale dynamics in this NS5A fragment. In addition, we could characterize two distinct interaction modes with the SH3 domain of Bin1 (bridging integrator protein 1), a pro-apoptotic tumor suppressor. Despite being largely disordered, the protein contains three regions that transiently adopt α-helical structures, partly stabilized by long-range tertiary interactions. Two of these transient α-helices form a noncanonical SH3-binding motif, which allows low-affinity SH3 binding. Our results contribute to a better understanding of the role of the NS5A protein during hepatitis C virus infection. The present work also highlights the power of NMR spectroscopy to characterize multiple binding events including short-lived transient interactions between globular and highly disordered proteins. 相似文献

Mixed lineage kinase 3 (MLK3) is a serine/threonine protein kinase that functions as a mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase to activate the c-Jun NH(2)-terminal kinase pathway. MLK3 has also been implicated as an I kappa B kinase kinase in the activation of NF-kappa B. Amino-terminal to its catalytic domain, MLK3 contains a Src homology 3 (SH3) domain. SH3 domains harbor three highly conserved aromatic amino acids that are important for ligand binding. In this study, we mutated one of these corresponding residues within MLK3 to deliberately disrupt the function of its SH3 domain. This SH3-defective mutant of MLK3 exhibited increased catalytic activity compared with wild type MLK3 suggesting that the SH3 domain negatively regulates MLK3 activity. We report herein that the SH3 domain of MLK3 interacts with full-length MLK3, and we have mapped the site of interaction to a region between the zipper and the Cdc42/Rac interactive binding motif. Interestingly, the SH3-binding region contains not a proline-rich sequence but, rather, a single proline residue. Mutation of this sole proline abrogates SH3 binding and increases MLK3 catalytic activity. Taken together, these data demonstrate that MLK3 is autoinhibited through its SH3 domain. The critical proline residue in the SH3-binding site of MLK3 is conserved in the closely related family members, MLK1 and MLK2, suggesting a common autoinhibitory mechanism among these kinases. Our study has revealed the first example of SH3 domain-mediated autoinhibition of a serine/threonine kinase and provides insight into the regulation of the mixed lineage family of protein kinases. 相似文献

Activation of protein tyrosine kinases is one of the initial events following aggregation of the high-affinity receptor for immunoglobulin E (Fc epsilon RI) on RBL-2H3 cells, a model mast cell line. The protein tyrosine kinase p72syk (Syk), which contains two Src homology 2 (SH2) domains, is activated and associates with phosphorylated Fc epsilon RI subunits after receptor aggregation. In this report, we used Syk SH2 domains, expressed in tandem or individually, as fusion proteins to identify Syk-binding proteins in RBL-2H3 lysates. We show that the tandem Syk SH2 domains selectively associate with tyrosine-phosphorylated forms of the gamma and beta subunits of Fc epsilon RI. The isolated carboxy-proximal SH2 domain exhibited a significantly higher affinity for the Fc epsilon RI subunits than did the amino-proximal domain. When in tandem, the Syk SH2 domains showed enhanced binding to phosphorylated gamma and beta subunits. The conserved tyrosine-based activation motifs contained in the cytoplasmic domains of the gamma and beta subunits, characterized by two YXXL/I sequences in tandem, represent potential high-affinity binding sites for the dual SH2 domains of Syk. Peptide competition studies indicated that Syk exhibits a higher affinity for the phosphorylated tyrosine activation motif of the gamma subunit than for that of the beta subunit. In addition, we show that Syk is the major protein in RBL-2H3 cells that is affinity isolated with phosphorylated peptides corresponding to the phosphorylated gamma subunit motif. These data suggest that Syk associates with the gamma subunit of the high-affinity receptor for immunoglobulin E through an interaction between the tandem SH2 domains of SH2 domains of Syk and the phosphorylated tyrosine activation motif of the gamma subunit and that Syk may be the major signaling protein that binds to Fc epsilon RI tyrosine activation motif of the gamma subunit and that Syk may be the major signaling protein that binds to Dc epsilon tyrosine activation motifs in RBL-2H3 cells. 相似文献

The metabolic actions of insulin are transduced through the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase pathway. A critical component of this pathway is 3-phosphoinositide-dependent kinase-1 (PDK-1), a PH domain-containing enzyme that catalyzes the activating phosphorylation for many AGC kinases, including Akt and protein kinase C isozymes. We used a directed proteomics-based approach to identify the adaptor protein Grb14, which binds the insulin receptor through an SH2 domain, as a novel PDK-1 binding partner. Interaction of these two proteins is constitutive and mediated by a PDK-1 binding motif on Grb14. Disruption of this motif by point mutation or deletion of the Grb14 SH2 domain prevents the insulin-triggered membrane translocation of PDK-1. The interaction of PDK-1 with Grb14 facilitates Akt function: disruption of the interaction by overexpression of a construct of Grb14 mutated in the PDK-1 binding motif significantly decreases insulin-dependent activation of Akt. Thus, Grb14 serves as an adaptor protein to recruit PDK-1 to activated insulin receptor, thus promoting Akt phosphorylation and transduction of the insulin signal. 相似文献
