  • c-Abl has high intrinsic tyrosine kinase activity that is stimulated by mutation of the Src homology 3 domain and by autophosphorylation at two distinct regulatory tyrosi ... 10964922

    Using the specific Abl tyrosine kinase inhibitor STI 571, we purified unphosphorylated murine type IV c-Abl and measured the kinetic parameters of c-Abl tyrosine kinase activity in a solution with a peptide-based assay. Unphosphorylated c-Abl exhibited substantial peptide kinase activity with K(m) of 204 microm and V(max) of 33 pmol min(-1). Contrary to previous observations using immune complex kinase assays, we found that a transforming c-Abl mutant with a Src homology 3 domain point mutation (P131L) had significantly (about 6-fold) higher intrinsic kinase activity than wild-type c-Abl (K(m) = 91 microm, V(max) = 112 pmol min(-1)). Autophosphorylation stimulated the activity of wild-type c-Abl about 18-fold and c-Abl P131L about 3.6-fold, resulting in highly active kinases with similar catalytic rates. The autophosphorylation rate was dependent on Abl protein concentration consistent with an intermolecular reaction. A tyrosine to phenylalanine mutation (Y412F) at the c-Abl residue homologous to the c-Src catalytic domain autophosphorylation site impaired the activation of wild-type c-Abl by 90% but reduced activation of c-Abl P131L by only 45%. Mutation of a tyrosine (Tyr-245) in the linker region between the Src homology 2 and catalytic domains that is conserved among the Abl family inhibited the autophosphorylation-induced activation of wild-type c-Abl by 50%, whereas the c-Abl Y245F/Y412F double mutant was minimally activated by autophosphorylation. These results support a model where c-Abl is inhibited in part through an intramolecular Src homology 3-linker interaction and stimulated to full catalytic activity by sequential phosphorylation at Tyr-412 and Tyr-245.

  • Characterization of tightly associated smooth muscle myosin-myosin light-chain kinase-calmodulin complexes. 19477187

    A current popular model to explain phosphorylation of smooth muscle myosin (SMM) by myosin light-chain kinase (MLCK) proposes that MLCK is bound tightly to actin but weakly to SMM. We found that MLCK and calmodulin (CaM) co-purify with unphosphorylated SMM from chicken gizzard, suggesting that they are tightly bound. Although the MLCK:SMM molar ratio in SMM preparations was well below stoichiometric (1:73+/-9), the ratio was approximately 23-37% of that in gizzard tissue. Fifteen to 30% of MLCK was associated with CaM at approximately 1 nM free [Ca(2+)]. There were two MLCK pools that bound unphosphorylated SMM with K(d) approximately 10 and 0.2 microM and phosphorylated SMM with K(d) approximately 20 and 0.2 microM. Using an in vitro motility assay to measure actin sliding velocities, we showed that the co-purifying MLCK-CaM was activated by Ca(2+) and phosphorylation of SMM occurred at a pCa(50) of 6.1 and at a Hill coefficient of 0.9. Similar properties were observed from reconstituted MLCK-CaM-SMM. Using motility assays, co-sedimentation assays, and on-coverslip enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays to quantify proteins on the motility assay coverslip, we provide strong evidence that most of the MLCK is bound directly to SMM through the telokin domain and some may also be bound to both SMM and to co-purifying actin through the N-terminal actin-binding domain. These results suggest that this MLCK may play a role in the initiation of contraction.

  • Epigenetic alteration of Wnt pathway antagonists in progressive glandular neoplasia of the lung. 18308762

    Atypical adenomatous hyperplasia (AAH) is now recognized as a precursor lesion from which lung adenocarcinomas arise and thus represents an ideal target for studying the early genetic and epigenetic alterations associated with lung tumorigenesis such as alterations of the Wnt pathway.We assessed the level of Wnt signaling activity in lung cancer cell lines by determining the level of active beta-catenin and determined the level of expression of Wnt antagonists APC, DKK1, DKK3, LKB1, SFRP1, 2, 4, 5, WIF1 and RUNX3 using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. Using multiplex nested methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction, we analyzed promoter region methylation of these genes in resected lung tissue in the histopathologic sequence of glandular neoplasia (normal lung parenchyma, low-grade and high-grade AAH, adenocarcinoma).The majority of non-small cell lung cancer cell lines (11 of 16, 69%) have evidence of active Wnt signaling and silencing of Wnt antagonists correlated with promoter hypermethylation. Promoter region methylation of Wnt antagonists was common in primary lung adenocarcinoma and there was a significant increase in the frequency of methylation for Wnt antagonist genes and the number of genes methylated with each stage of tumorigenesis (test for rend P less than or= 0.01). Additionally, odds ratios for promoter hypermethylation of individual or multiple Wnt antagonist genes and adenocarcinomas were statistically significantly elevated and ranged between 3.64 and 48.17.These results show that gene silencing of Wnt antagonists by promoter hypermethylation occurs during the earliest stages of glandular neoplasia of the lung and accumulates with progression toward malignancy.

  • Role of nuclear unphosphorylated STAT3 in angiotensin II type 1 receptor-induced cardiac hypertrophy. 19696070

    Cardiac hypertrophy is a risk factor independent of blood pressure; however, the mechanisms that distinguish pathological remodelling due to local cues from pressure overload are unresolved. This study was aimed at discovering a novel gene expression mechanism in heart failure.In angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R) transgenic mice (TG), we found a significant increase of mRNA and total STAT3 (T-STAT3) protein, but not STAT3 phosphorylated at residues Y705 and S727. A net increase in nuclear accumulation of this unphosphorylated form of STAT3 (U-STAT3) correlated with the development of cardiac hypertrophy and dysfunction, which are associated with abnormal expression of osteopontin and regulator of G protein signalling 2 genes. Nuclear accumulation of U-STAT3 is induced by angiotensin II treatment in neonatal cardiac myocytes, fibroblasts, and AT1R-expressing human embryonic kidney 293 (HEK-AT1R) cells. Chromatin immunoprecipitation demonstrated that U-STAT3 binds to the target gene promoter, and siRNA-mediated knockdown of STAT3 expression significantly altered the expression of target genes in HEK-AT1R cells. T-STAT3 in TG mouse hearts and the phosphorylation-deficient Y705F mutant STAT3 in HEK-AT1R cells physically interacted with transcription co-activator p300.Chronic activation of AT1R induces unregulated expression of the Stat3 gene, leading to nuclear accumulation of U-STAT3, which significantly correlated with progression of cardiac hypertrophy.

  • Recruitment of JNK to JIP1 and JNK-dependent JIP1 phosphorylation regulates JNK module dynamics and activation. 12756254

    JIP1 is a scaffold protein that assembles and facilitates the activation of the mixed lineage kinase-dependent JNK module. Results of earlier work led us to propose a model for JIP1-JNK complex regulation that predicts that under basal conditions, JIP1 maintains DLK in a monomeric, unphosphorylated, and catalytically inactive state. Upon appropriate module stimulation, JNK-JIP1 binding affinity increases and DLK-JIP1 affinity decreases. Dissociation of DLK from JIP1 results in subsequent DLK oligomerization, autophosphorylation, and ultimately module activation. Our previous published results suggested the hypothesis that recruitment of JNK to JIP1 and phosphorylation of JIP1 by JNK is prerequisite for activation of the JNK module (Nihalani, D., Meyer, D., Pajni, S., and Holzman, L. B. (2001) EMBO J. 20, 3447-3458). The present study corroborated this hypothesis by demonstrating that JNK binding to JIP1 is necessary for stimulus-induced dissociation of DLK from JIP1, for DLK oligomerization, and for JNK activation. After mapping JNK-dependent JIP1 phosphorylation sites and testing their functional significance, it was observed that phosphorylation by JNK of JIP1 on Thr-103 and not other phosphorylated JIP1 residues is necessary for the regulation of DLK association with JIP1, DLK activation, and subsequent module activation. A refined model of JIP1-JNK module regulation is presented in which JNK phosphorylation of JIP1 is necessary prior to module activation.

  • A Stat3-interacting protein (StIP1) regulates cytokine signal transduction. 10954736

    Genetic and biochemical studies have led to the identification of the Stat3-Interacting Protein StIP1. The preferential association of StIP1 with inactive (i.e., unphosphorylated) Stat3 suggests that it may contribute to the regulation of Stat3 activation. Consistent with this possibility, StIP1 also exhibits an affinity for members of the Janus kinase family. Overexpression of the Stat3-binding domain of StIP1 blocks Stat3 activation, nuclear translocation, and Stat3-dependent induction of a reporter gene. These studies indicate that StIP1 regulates the ligand-dependent activation of Stat3, potentially by serving as a scaffold protein that promotes the interaction between Janus kinases and their Stat3 substrate. The ability of StIP1 to associate with several additional members of the signal transducer and activator of transcription family suggests that StIP1 may serve a broader role in cytokine-signaling events.

  • Characterization and quantitation of phospholamban and its phosphorylation state using antibodies. 10623571

    Quantitative immunoassays to discriminate and quantitate phospholamban and its phosphorylation states in heart homogenates were developed using known amounts of protein determined by amino acid analysis. Synthetic 1-52 phospholamban, the hydrophilic 1-25 peptide, and 1-25 phosphopeptides containing P-Ser(16), P-Thr(17), and dually phosphorylated (P-Ser(16), P-Thr(17)) were used to calibrate immunoblot systems. In addition, synthetic 1-52 peptide was phosphorylated using cAMP-dependent protein kinase (P-Ser(16)) or Ca(2+)-calmodulin protein kinase (P-Thr(17)) and then separated from unphosphorylated 1-52 by HPLC prior to quantitation. Further, canine cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum was phosphorylated in vitro using [gamma-(32)P]-ATP with cAMP-dependent protein kinase and/or Ca(2+)-calmodulin-dependent protein kinase as well as sequential phosphorylation in both orders to assess the veracity of antibody recognition of phosphorylated forms. Western blots proved useful in characterizing the reactivity of the different antibodies to phospholamban and phosphorylated phospholamban, but were inefficient for accurate quantitation and problems with antibody recognition of dually phosphorylated phospholamban were found. mAb 1D11 recognized all forms of phospholamban, polyclonal antibodies 285 and PS-16 were highly selective for P-Ser(16) phospholamban but had diminished reactivity to diphosphorylated (P-Ser(16), P-Thr(17)) phospholamban, and polyclonal antibody PT-17, although selective for P-Thr(17) phospholamban, generated very weak signals on Western blots and reacted poorly with diphosphorylated phospholamban. Results in quantitative immunodot blot experiments were even more compelling. None of the phosphorylation specific antibodies reacted with the diphospho 1-25 phospholamban peptide. Transgenic mouse hearts expressing varying levels of PLB and ferret heart biopsy samples taken before and after isoproterenol perfusion were analyzed. In all samples containing phospholamban, a basal level of Ser(16) phosphorylation (about 4% of the total PLB population) and a lesser amount of Thr(17) phosphorylation was observed. Upon isoproterenol perfusion, Ser(16) phosphorylation increased only to 17% of the total phospholamban population with a similar change in Thr(17) phosphorylation. This suggests that phospholamban phosphorylation may serve as an electrostatic switch that dissociates inactive calcium pump complexes into catalytically active units. Thus, direct correlations between phospholamban phosphorylation state and contractile parameters may not be valid.

  • Myofibrillar Ca(2+) sensitivity is uncoupled from troponin I phosphorylation in hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy due to abnormal troponin T. 23097574

    We studied the relationship between myofilament Ca(2+) sensitivity and troponin I (TnI) phosphorylation by protein kinase A at serines 22/23 in human heart troponin isolated from donor hearts and from myectomy samples from patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM).We used a quantitative in vitro motility assay. With donor heart troponin, Ca(2+) sensitivity is two- to three-fold higher when TnI is unphosphorylated. In the myectomy samples from patients with HOCM, the mean level of TnI phosphorylation was low: 0.38 ± 0.19 mol Pi/mol TnI compared with 1.60 ± 0.19 mol Pi/mol TnI in donor hearts, but no difference in myofilament Ca(2+) sensitivity was observed. Thus, troponin regulation of thin filament Ca(2+) sensitivity is abnormal in HOCM hearts. HOCM troponin (0.29 mol Pi/mol TnI) was treated with protein kinase A to increase the level of phosphorylation to 1.56 mol Pi/mol TnI. No difference in EC(50) was found in thin filaments containing high and low TnI phosphorylation levels. This indicates that Ca(2+) sensitivity is uncoupled from TnI phosphorylation in HOCM heart troponin. Coupling could be restored by replacing endogenous troponin T (TnT) with the recombinant TnT T3 isoform. No difference in Ca(2+) sensitivity was observed if TnI was exchanged into HOCM heart troponin or if TnT was exchanged into the highly phosphorylated donor heart troponin. Comparison of donor and HOCM heart troponin by mass spectrometry and with adduct-specific antibodies did not show any differences in TnT isoform expression, phosphorylation or any post-translational modifications.An abnormality in TnT is responsible for uncoupling myofibrillar Ca(2+) sensitivity from TnI phosphorylation in the septum of HOCM patients.

  • Beta-catenin is essential for pancreatic acinar but not islet development. 16192304

    Despite our increasingly sophisticated understanding of transcriptional regulation in pancreas development, we know relatively little about the extrinsic signaling pathways involved in this process. We show here that the early pancreatic epithelium exhibits a specific enrichment in unphosphorylated beta-catenin protein, a hallmark of activation of the canonical Wnt signaling pathway. To determine if this pathway is functionally required for normal pancreas development, we have specifically deleted the beta-catenin gene in these cells. Pancreata developing without beta-catenin are hypoplastic, although their early progenitors appear normal and exhibit no premature differentiation or death. Surprisingly, and in marked contrast to its role in the intestine, loss of beta-catenin does not significantly perturb islet endocrine cell mass or function. The major defect of the beta-catenin-deficient pancreas is an almost complete lack of acinar cells, which normally comprise the majority of the organ. beta-Catenin appears to be cell-autonomously required for the specification of acinar cells, rather than for their survival or maintenance, as deletion of beta-catenin specifically in differentiated acinar cells has no effect. Thus, our data are consistent with a crucial role for canonical Wnt signals in acinar lineage specification and differentiation.

  • Identification of C-terminal phosphorylation sites of N-formyl peptide receptor-1 (FPR1) in human blood neutrophils. 23873933

    Accumulation, activation, and control of neutrophils at inflammation sites is partly driven by N-formyl peptide chemoattractant receptors (FPRs). Occupancy of these G-protein-coupled receptors by formyl peptides has been shown to induce regulatory phosphorylation of cytoplasmic serine/threonine amino acid residues in heterologously expressed recombinant receptors, but the biochemistry of these modifications in primary human neutrophils remains relatively unstudied. FPR1 and FPR2 were partially immunopurified using antibodies that recognize both receptors (NFPRa) or unphosphorylated FPR1 (NFPRb) in dodecylmaltoside extracts of unstimulated and N-formyl-Met-Leu-Phe (fMLF) + cytochalasin B-stimulated neutrophils or their membrane fractions. After deglycosylation and separation by SDS-PAGE, excised Coomassie Blue-staining bands (∼34,000 Mr) were tryptically digested, and FPR1, phospho-FPR1, and FPR2 content was confirmed by peptide mass spectrometry. C-terminal FPR1 peptides (Leu(312)-Arg(322) and Arg(323)-Lys(350)) and extracellular FPR1 peptide (Ile(191)-Arg(201)) as well as three similarly placed FPR2 peptides were identified in unstimulated and fMLF + cytochalasin B-stimulated samples. LC/MS/MS identified seven isoforms of Ala(323)-Lys(350) only in the fMLF + cytochalasin B-stimulated sample. These were individually phosphorylated at Thr(325), Ser(328), Thr(329), Thr(331), Ser(332), Thr(334), and Thr(339). No phospho-FPR2 peptides were detected. Cytochalasin B treatment of neutrophils decreased the sensitivity of fMLF-dependent NFPRb recognition 2-fold, from EC50 = 33 ± 8 to 74 ± 21 nM. Our results suggest that 1) partial immunopurification, deglycosylation, and SDS-PAGE separation of FPRs is sufficient to identify C-terminal FPR1 Ser/Thr phosphorylations by LC/MS/MS; 2) kinases/phosphatases activated in fMLF/cytochalasin B-stimulated neutrophils produce multiple C-terminal tail FPR1 Ser/Thr phosphorylations but have little effect on corresponding FPR2 sites; and 3) the extent of FPR1 phosphorylation can be monitored with C-terminal tail FPR1-phosphospecific antibodies.
