The erythropoietin (Epo) receptor belongs to the cytokine receptor superfamily. Although the cytokine receptors do not possess a tyrosine kinase consensus sequence in the intracellular domain, rapid stimulation of a tyrosine kinase activity occurs after activation by the ligand. We and others have shown that Epo induces the tyrosine phosphorylation of its cognate receptor as well as phosphorylation of other proteins. In this report, we examined the role of the receptor tyrosine residues in signal transduction. Eight tyrosine residues are located within the intracellular domain of the murine Epo receptor. A single tyrosine residue is present in the region previously shown to be sufficient for proliferative signal transduction. This tyrosine (Tyr 343) was mutated to phenylalanine. Moreover, mutant receptors were also generated with either a tyrosine residue or a phenylalanine residue at position 343 and with a COOH terminal truncation that removed the 7 other tyrosine residues. Expression vectors carrying these mutated receptors were transfected into the interleukin-3-dependent murine cell line Ba/F3. Epo-induced growth was sustained efficiently by all these receptors, although receptors without any tyrosine residues conferred a significantly reduced mitogenic activity. Moreover, all receptors were able to mediate Epo-dependant accumulation of beta-globin mRNA. The mutated receptors all induced the tyrosine phosphorylation of several cellular proteins after Epo stimulation. However, the truncated receptors induced the phosphorylation of a reduced number of proteins, suggesting that phosphorylated tyrosines of the receptor could have a role in the recruitment either of a tyrosine kinase or of tyrosine kinase substrate proteins. The receptors were all able to mediate Epo- induced activation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, although truncated receptors no longer bound phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase.

Abstract Five tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins with molecular masses of 180, 145, 116, 100, and 70 kD are associated with phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) in erythropoietin (Epo)-stimulated UT-7 cells. The 180- and 70-kD proteins have been previously shown to be IRS2 and the Epo receptor. In this report, we show that the 116-kD protein is the IRS2-related molecular adapter, GAB1. Indeed, Epo induced the transient tyrosine phosphorylation of GAB1 in UT-7 cells. Both kinetics and Epo dose-response experiments showed that GAB1 tyrosine phosphorylation was a direct consequence of Epo receptor activation. After tyrosine phosphorylation, GAB1 associated with the PI 3-kinase, the phosphotyrosine phosphatase SHP2, the phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5 trisphosphate 5-phosphatase SHIP, and the molecular adapter SHC. GAB1 was also associated with the molecular adapter GRB2 in unstimulated cells, and this association dramatically increased after Epo stimulation. Thus, GAB1 could be a scaffold protein able to couple the Epo receptor activation with the stimulation of several intracellular signaling pathways. Epo-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of GAB1 was also observed in normal human erythroid progenitors isolated from cord blood. Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and thrombopoietin (TPO) also induced the tyrosine phosphorylation of GAB1 in UT-7 cells, indicating that this molecule participates in the signal transduction of several cytokine receptors.

Abstract Substitution of valine (Val) for aspartic acid (Asp) at codon 814 constitutively activates murine c-kit receptor tyrosine kinase (KIT), and Asp816Val mutation, corresponding to murine Asp814Val mutation, is found in patients with mastocytosis and acute myelocytic leukemia. However, the signal transduction pathways responsible for oncogenesis by the Asp814Val mutant (KITVal814) are not fully understood. To examine the oncogenic signal transduction of KITVal814, we converted 20 tyrosine (Tyr) residues to phenylalanine (Phe) in the cytoplasmic domain of KITVal814 or deleted the C-terminal region containing 2 other tyrosine residues (Del). Among various KITVal814- derived mutants, KITVal814-Tyr719Phe and KITVal814-Delseverely impaired receptor tyrosine phosphorylation and association with the p85 subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3′-kinase (p85PI3-K). Moreover, KITVal814-Tyr719Pheand KITVal814-Del failed to induce ligand-independent growth in Ba/F3 cells, indicating that Tyr719, the binding site for p85PI3-K, and the C-terminal region are indispensable for factor-independent growth by KITVal814. Although the C-terminal region was also required for ligand-dependent growth by wild-type KIT (KITWT), the Tyr719Phe substitution had negligible effects on ligand-dependent growth by KITWT. Furthermore, dominant-negative PI3-K significantly inhibited ligand-independent growth by KITVal814. These results demonstrate that Tyr719 is crucial for constitutive activation of KITVal814, but not for the ligand-induced activation of KITWT, and that the downstream signaling of PI3-K plays an important role in ligand-independent growth and tumorigenicity by KITVal814, thereby suggesting that KITVal814 is a unique activating mutation that leads to a distinguishable function from the effects of KITWT.

Abstract The newly identified insulin receptor (IR) substrate, Gab1 [growth factor receptor bound 2 (Grb2)-associated binder-1] is rapidly phosphorylated on several tyrosine residues by the activated IR. Phosphorylated Gab1 acts as a docking protein for Src homology-2 (SH2) domain-containing proteins. These include the regulatory subunit p85 of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and phosphotyrosine phosphatase, SHP-2. In this report, using a modified version of the yeast two-hybrid system, we localized which Gab1 phospho-tyrosine residues are required for its interaction with phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and with SHP-2. Our results demonstrate that to interact with p85 or SHP-2 SH2 domains, Gab1 must be tyrosine phosphorylated by IR. Further, we found that Gab1 tyrosine 472 is the major site for association with p85, while tyrosines 447 and 589 are participating in this process. Concerning Gab1/SHP-2 interaction, only mutation of tyrosine 627 prevents binding of Gab1 to SHP-2 SH2 domains, suggesting the occurrence of a monovalent binding event. Finally, we examined the role of Gab1 PH (Pleckstrin homology) domain in Gab1/IR interaction and in Gab1 tyrosine phosphorylation by IR. Using the modified two-hybrid system and in vitro experiments, we found that the Gab1 PH domain is not important for IR/Gab1 interaction and for Gab1 tyrosine phosphorylation. In contrast, in intact mammalian cells, Gab1 PH domain appears to be crucial for its tyrosine phosphorylation and association with SHP-2 after insulin stimulation.

ABSTRACT Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-K) plays an important role in signaling via a wide range of receptors such as those for antigen, growth factors, and a number of cytokines, including interleukin-2 (IL-2). PI 3-K has been implicated in both IL-2-induced proliferation and prevention of apoptosis. A number of potential mechanisms for the recruitment of PI 3-K to the IL-2 receptor have been proposed. We now have found that tyrosine residues in the IL-2 receptor β chain (IL-2Rβ) are unexpectedly not required for the recruitment of the p85 component of PI 3-K. Instead, we find that Jak1, which associates with membrane-proximal regions of the IL-2Rβ cytoplasmic domain, is essential for efficient IL-2Rβ–p85 interaction, although some IL-2Rβ–p85 association can be seen in the absence of Jak1. We also found that Jak1 interacts with p85 in the absence of IL-2Rβ and that IL-2Rβ and Jak1 cooperate for the efficient recruitment and tyrosine phosphorylation of p85. This is the first report of a PI 3-K–Jak1 interaction, and it implicates Jak1 in an essential IL-2 signaling pathway distinct from the activation of STAT proteins.
