Biologický význam tyrozínové fosforylace v SH3 doméně proteinu CAS

Protein CAS is a major tyrosine-phosphorylated protein in cells transformed by v-crk and v-src oncogenes. It is a multidomain adaptor protein, which serves as a scaffold for assembly of signalling complexes which are important for migration and invasiveness of Src-transformed cells. A novel phosphorylation site in N-terminal SH3 domain was identified - tyrosine 12 located on binding surface of CAS SH3 domain. To study biological importance of tyrosine 12 phosphorylation, non-phosphorylable (Y12F) and phosphomimicking ( Y12E) mutant of CAS were prepared. We found that phosphomimicking mutation Y12E leads to decreased interaction of CAS SH domain with kinase FAK a phosphatase PTP-PEST and also reduce tyrosine phosphorylation of FAK. Using GFP-tagged CAS protein, we show that Y12E mutation caused delocalization of CAS from focal adhesion but has no effect on localization of CAS to podosome-type adhesion. Non-phosphorylable mutation Y12F cause hyperphosphorylation of CAS substrate domain and decrease turnover of focal adhesion and associated cell migration of mouse embryonal fibroblasts (MEFs) independent to integrin singalling. Analogically to migration, CAS Y12F decrease invasiveness of Src-transformed MEF. The results of this diploma thesis show that phosphorylation of Tyr12 in CAS SH3 domain is...Proteín CAS je hlavný tyrozín-fosforylovaný proteín v bunkách transformovaných virovými onkogénmi v-src a v-crk. Je to multidoménový adaptorový proteín slúžiaci ako lešenie pre zostavovanie signálnych komplexov dôležitých pre migráciu a invazivitu Src-transformovaných buniek. V N-koncovej SH3 doméne proteínu CAS bolo identifikované nové fosforylačné miesto - tyrozín 12 nachádzajúci sa na väzbovom povrchu SH3 domény. Pre štúdium biologického významu fosforylácie tyrozínu 12 boli pripravené nefosforylovateľná ( Y12F ) a fosfomimikujúca ( Y12E ) mutanta proteínu CAS. Zistili sme, že fosfomimikujúca mutácia Y12E znižuje asociáciu s kinázou FAK a fosfatázou PTP-PEST a taktiež znižuje tyrozínovú fosforyláciu kinázy FAK. Pomocou GFP značeného proteínu CAS sme následne zistili, že Y12E mutácia delokalizuje proteín CAS z fokálnych adhézií, pričom však nemá žiadny vplyv na lokalizáciu CAS do podozómov. Nefosforylovateľná mutácia Y12F zapríčiňuje hyperfosforyláciu substrátovej domény CAS a znižuje dynamiku fokálnych adhézií a s tým spojenú migračnú kapacitu myších embryonálnych fibroblastov ( MEF ) nezávisle na integrínovej signlizácii. Analogicky k migrácii, CAS Y12F znižuje i invazivitu Src-transformovaných MEF.

Úloha proteinu p130CAS v integrinové signalizaci

Focal adhesions are important subcellular structures that are composed of many signaling and scaffolding proteins. They serve not only for anchoring the cell to the substratum but they are also important signaling centers that regulate various cellular behavior such as migration, invasiveness, proliferation and survival. Focal adhesion signaling needs to be strictly regulated because alteration in activity or expression of many focal adhesion proteins leads to tumorogenesis and metastasis formation. One of the most important scaffolding protein associated with focal adhesion is p130Cas. The importance of p130Cas in regulation of cell migration and invasiveness has been well established. P130Cas also plays important role in regulation of cell survival and proliferation. Moreover, high protein levels of human ortholog of p130Cas - BCAR1, has been linked to more aggressive breast tumors and poor prognosis. During my doctoral studies, I focused on the role of p130Cas in integrin signaling. At the beginning we characterized the role of tyrosine 12 phosphorylation within its SH3 domain. We confirmed that this phosphorylation is increased in Src527F transformed mouse embryonic fibroblasts compared to non-transformed counterparts and also in some human cancer cell lines. We showed that this phosphorylation...IN CZECH Fokální adheze jsou důležitými buněčnými strukturami, které pozůstávají z mnoha signálních a strukturních proteinů. Slouží nejen k ukotvení buňky k podkladu, ale i jako důležitá signalizační centra, která regulují různé buněčné děje jako například migraci, invazivitu, proliferaci a přežívání. Signalizace zprostředkovaná fokálními adhezemi musí být přísně regulována, protože změna v aktivitě nebo expresi mnoha proteinů fokálních adhezí může vést ke vzniku nádorů a tvorbě metastáz. Jedním z nejdůležitějších strukturních proteinů asociovaných s fokálními adhezemi je protein p130Cas. Důležitost proteinu p130Cas v regulaci buněčné migrace a invazivity je velice dobře zdokumentovaná. Protein p130Cas také hraje důležitou roli v regulaci buněčného dělení a přežívaní. Navíc, vysoké hladiny lidského homologu proteinu p130Cas - BCAR1 jsou spojené s agresivnějšími nádory a špatnou prognózou. V průběhu mého doktorandského studia jsem se zaměřil na studium úlohy proteinu p130Cas v integrinové signalizaci. Charakterizovali jsme úlohu fosforylace tyrozinu 12 v jeho SH3 doméně a potvrdili jsme, že tato fosforylace je zvýšená v myších embryonálních fibroblastech transformovaných aktivovaným Src527F v porovnaní s jejich netransformovanými protějšky a také v některých lidských nádorech. Tato fosforylace ruší...Department of Cell BiologyKatedra buněčné biologieFaculty of SciencePřírodovědecká fakult
