Abstract: | Ser/Thr phosphorylation of insulin receptor substrate IRS-1 regulates insulin signaling, but the relevant phosphorylated residues and their potential functions during insulin-stimulated signal transduction are difficult to resolve. We used a sequence-specific polyclonal antibody directed against phosphorylated Ser(302) to study IRS-1-mediated signaling during insulin and insulin-like growth factor IGF-I stimulation. Insulin or IGF-I stimulated phosphorylation of Ser(302) in various cell backgrounds and in murine muscle. Wortmannin or rapamycin inhibited Ser(302) phosphorylation, and amino acids or glucose stimulated Ser(302) phosphorylation, suggesting a role for the mTOR cascade. The Ser(302) kinase associates with IRS-1 during immunoprecipitation, but its identity is unknown. The NH(2)-terminal c-Jun kinase did not phosphorylate Ser(302). Replacing Ser(302) with alanine significantly reduced insulin-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of IRS-1 and p85 binding and reduced insulin-stimulated phosphorylation of p70(S6K), ribosomal S6 protein, and 4E-BP1; however, this mutation had no effect on insulin-stimulated Akt or glycogen synthase kinase 3beta phosphorylation. Replacing Ser(302) with alanine reduced insulin/IGF-I-stimulated DNA synthesis. We conclude that Ser(302) phosphorylation integrates nutrient availability with insulin/IGF-I signaling to promote mitogenesis and cell growth. |
