Lateral interaction is an important feature of various types of cell surface receptors including the receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs). Here we report that dynamic lateral interaction produces amplification and variation in signalling of the EGF receptor, a member of RTKs. Binding of EGF is known to induce transphosphorylation inside EGFR dimers. Using single-molecule techniques, the relationship between EGF binding and EGFR phosphorylation has been determined. The number of phosphorylated EGFR molecules became larger than that of EGF binding as unliganded EGFR was phosphorylated, meaning an amplification of EGF signalling. EGFR formed clusters continuously exchanging their elements through thermal diffusion, and direct and/or indirect lateral interactions. As a result, various types of activation sites differing in number of activated receptors were generated. Amplification required no cytoplasmic factors and was observed on semi-intact cells for a wide range of number of EGFR molecules (10(4)-10(6) per cell) suggesting generality of this process. 相似文献

Nerve growth factor (NGF) is a secreted neurotrophin involved in the differentiation, growth, and maintenance of neurons. Here, we have used single-molecule imaging to characterize the behavior of Cy3-tagged NGF after binding to receptor complexes on the surfaces of PC12 cells. We show that NGF-receptor complexes have two distinct diffusive states, characterized as mobile and immobile phase. The transition between the two diffusive states occurred reversibly with duration times determined by a single rate limiting process. The abrupt transition to the immobile phase often occurred simultaneously with the clustering of NGF-receptor complexes. Immobilization depended on the phosphorylation of the TrkA NGF-receptor. Using dual-color imaging, it was demonstrated that the membrane recruitment of the intercellular signaling protein occurs with NGF-receptor complexes in the immobile phase indicating signal transduction occurs during this phase. Thus, NGF signaling is performed through a repetitive random process to induce transient formation of signaling complexes. 相似文献
