Direct interaction between the inhibitor 2 and ceramide via sphingolipid-protein binding is involved in the regulation of protein phosphatase 2A activity and signaling.

ABSTRACT: In this study, the inhibitor 2 of protein phosphatase 2A (I2PP2A) was identified in vitro and in situ as a ceramide-binding protein, which exhibits stereoisomer specificity and fatty acid chain length preference. Site- directed mutagenesis coupled with structural details of I2PP2A suggested that VIK 207-209 residues localized on helix 7 are important for ceramide binding and single mutation of K209D altered this interaction. Notably, I2PP2A-ceramide binding decreased the association between PP2A and the inhibitor, preventing the inhibition of PP2A activity in vitro. In addition, studies in A549 human lung cancer cells revealed that ceramide mediates c-Myc degradation via its PP2A-dependent dephosphorylation at S62, and treatment with okadaic acid and expression of c-Myc mutants with S62A or S62D conversions resulted in resistance to ceramide-mediated degradation. Importantly, whereas down-regulation of I2PP2A enhanced PP2A-mediated c-Myc degradation in response to ceramide, ectopic expression of wild-type I2PP2A but not of its K209D mutant protected this degradation in A549 cells. Moreover, expression of wild-type I2PP2A prevented the growth-inhibitory effects of ceramide both against A549 cells and xenograft-driven tumors in situ and in vivo compared with that in controls. Thus, these results suggest that direct interaction of I2PP2A with ceramide plays important biological roles via the regulation of PP2A activity and signaling, which in turn control ceramide-mediated degradation of c-Myc and antiproliferation.

Ceramide-Initiated Protein Phosphatase 2A Activation Contributes to Arterial Dysfunction In Vivo.

Project description:Prior studies have implicated accumulation of ceramide in blood vessels as a basis for vascular dysfunction in diet-induced obesity via a mechanism involving type 2 protein phosphatase (PP2A) dephosphorylation of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS). The current study sought to elucidate the mechanisms linking ceramide accumulation with PP2A activation and determine whether pharmacological inhibition of PP2A in vivo normalizes obesity-associated vascular dysfunction and limits the severity of hypertension. We show in endothelial cells that ceramide associates with the inhibitor 2 of PP2A (I2PP2A) in the cytosol, which disrupts the association of I2PP2A with PP2A leading to its translocation to the plasma membrane. The increased association between PP2A and eNOS at the plasma membrane promotes dissociation of an Akt-Hsp90-eNOS complex that is required for eNOS phosphorylation and activation. A novel small-molecule inhibitor of PP2A attenuated PP2A activation, prevented disruption of the Akt-Hsp90-eNOS complex in the vasculature, preserved arterial function, and maintained normal blood pressure in obese mice. These findings reveal a novel mechanism whereby ceramide initiates PP2A colocalization with eNOS and demonstrate that PP2A activation precipitates vascular dysfunction in diet-induced obesity. Therapeutic strategies targeted to reducing PP2A activation might be beneficial in attenuating vascular complications that exist in the context of type 2 diabetes, obesity, and conditions associated with insulin resistance.

Protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) holoenzymes regulate death-associated protein kinase (DAPK) in ceramide-induced anoikis.

Project description:The tumor suppressor, death-associated protein kinase (DAPK), is a Ca(2+)/calmodulin-regulated Ser/Thr kinase with an important role in regulating cytoskeletal dynamics. Autophosphorylation within the calmodulin-binding domain at Ser-308 inhibits DAPK catalytic activity. Dephosphorylation of Ser-308 by a previously unknown phosphatase enhances kinase activity and proteasome-mediated degradation of DAPK. In these studies, we identified two holoenzyme forms of protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A), ABalphaC and ABdeltaC, as DAPK-interacting proteins. These phosphatase holoenzymes dephosphorylate DAPK at Ser-308 in vitro and in vivo resulting in enhanced kinase activity of DAPK. The enzymatic activity of PP2A also negatively regulates DAPK levels by enhancing proteasome-mediated degradation of the kinase. Overexpression of wild type DAPK induces cell rounding and detachment in HEK293 cells; however, this effect is not observed following expression of an inactive DAPK S308E mutant. Finally, activation of DAPK by PP2A was found to be required for ceramide-induced anoikis. Together, our results provide a mechanism by which PP2A and DAPK activities control cell adhesion and anoikis.

Design, synthesis and anticancer activity of constrained sphingolipid-phenoxazine/phenothiazine hybrid constructs targeting protein phosphatase 2A.

Project description:Inspired by the cytotoxicity of perphenazine toward cancer cells and its ability to activate the serine/threonine protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A), we prepared series of ether-carbon linked analogs of a constrained synthetic sphingolipid analog 3, known for its cytotoxicity, nutrient transporter down-regulation and vacuolation properties, incorporating the tricyclic neuroleptics phenoxazine and phenothiazine to represent hybrid structures with possible synergistic cytotoxic activity. While the original activity of the lead compound 3 was diminished by fusion with the phenoxazine or phenothiazine tethered moieties, the corresponding 3-pyridyltetryl ether analog 10 showed cytotoxicity and nutrient transporter down-regulation similar to the lead compound 3, although it separated these PP2A-dependent phenotypes from that of vacuolation.

Molecular mechanisms underlying cardiac protein phosphatase 2A regulation in heart.

Project description:Kinase/phosphatase balance governs cardiac excitability in health and disease. Although detailed mechanisms for cardiac kinase regulation are established, far less is known regarding cardiac protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) regulation. This is largely due to the complexity of the PP2A holoenzyme structure (combinatorial assembly of three subunit enzyme from >17 subunit genes) and the inability to segregate "global" PP2A function from the activities of multiple "local" holoenzyme populations. Here we report that PP2A catalytic, regulatory, and scaffolding subunits are tightly regulated at transcriptional, translational, and post-translational levels to tune myocyte function at base line and in disease. We show that past global read-outs of cellular PP2A activity more appropriately represent the collective activity of numerous individual PP2A holoenzymes, each displaying a specific subcellular localization (dictated by select PP2A regulatory subunits) as well as local specific post-translational catalytic subunit methylation and phosphorylation events that regulate local and rapid holoenzyme assembly/disassembly (via leucine carboxymethyltransferase 1/phosphatase methylesterase 1 (LCMT-1/PME-1). We report that PP2A subunits are selectively regulated between human and animal models, across cardiac chambers, and even within specific cardiac cell types. Moreover, this regulation can be rapidly tuned in response to cellular activation. Finally, we report that global PP2A is altered in human and experimental models of heart disease, yet each pathology displays its own distinct molecular signature though specific PP2A subunit modulatory events. These new data provide an initial view into the signaling pathways that govern PP2A function in heart but also establish the first step in defining specific PP2A regulatory targets in health and disease.

Cancerous inhibitor of Protein Phosphatase 2A promotes B-cell activation in vitro

Project description:The generation of optimal immune response requires combined activation of both T- and B-cells. Here, we demonstrate that the cancerous inhibitor of protein phosphatase 2A (CIP2A) is a novel factor that governs activation of both T- and B-cells in vivo. Upon ovalbumin challenge, CIP2A-deficient (CIP2AHOZ) mice show impaired immune response. Furthermore, CIP2AHOZ mice had impaired clearance of Listeria Monocytogenesis (L.m.) infection, combined with decreased numbers of CD8+ T-cells and IFN-γ secretion. In an ovalbumin model of allergic asthma, CIP2AHOZ B-cells were impaired in IgE and IgG secretion, despite of normal Th2 differentiation and unaffected numbers of inflammatory cells or cytokines in bronchoalveolar lavage. Importantly, the cell-autonomous effect of CIP2A deficiency for both T- and B-cell activation was confirmed by in vitro assays. During the T-cell activation CIP2A, was shown to promote expression of ETS-1, whereas in B-cells CIP2A loss resulted in inhibition of MYC-mediated gene expression. Together these results identify CIP2A as a novel cell-autonomous regulator governing both T- and B-cell activation in vivo. They also identify CIP2AHOZ as a novel murine model for investigation of impaired immune response and allergic asthma.

Fusicoccin-A Targets Cancerous Inhibitor of Protein Phosphatase 2A by Stabilizing a C-Terminal Interaction with 14-3-3.

Project description:The cancerous inhibitor of protein phosphatase 2A (CIP2A) is an oncoprotein found overexpressed in many types of cancer. CIP2A has been shown to stabilize oncoproteins such as cMYC by shielding them from PP2A-mediated dephosphorylation. Here we report that the penultimate residue Ser904 in the C-terminus of CIP2A can be phosphorylated to create a binding site for the regulatory protein 14-3-3. We demonstrate that 14-3-3 is a new interaction partner of CIP2A. The 14-3-3/CIP2A C-terminal interaction complex can be targeted by the protein-protein interaction (PPI) stabilizer fusicoccin-A (FC-A), resulting in enhanced levels of phosphorylated Ser904. FC-A treatment of TNBC cells leads to the increased association of CIP2A with 14-3-3. We show that the composite interface between 14 and 3-3 and CIP2A's C-terminus can be targeted by the PPI stabilizer FC-A, providing a new interface that could potentially be exploited to modulate CIP2A's activity.

Protein interactome of the Cancerous Inhibitor of protein phosphatase 2A (CIP2A) in Th17 cells.

Project description:Cancerous inhibitor of protein phosphatase 2A (CIP2A) is involved in immune response, cancer progression, and Alzheimer's disease. However, an understanding of the mechanistic basis of its function in this wide spectrum of physiological and pathological processes is limited due to its poorly characterized interaction networks. Here we present the first systematic characterization of the CIP2A interactome by affinity-purification mass spectrometry combined with validation by selected reaction monitoring targeted mass spectrometry (SRM-MS) analysis in T helper (Th) 17 (Th17) cells. In addition to the known regulatory subunits of protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A), the catalytic subunits of protein PP2A were found to be interacting with CIP2A. Furthermore, the regulatory (PPP1R18, and PPP1R12A) and catalytic (PPP1CA) subunits of phosphatase PP1 were identified among the top novel CIP2A interactors. Evaluation of the ontologies associated with the proteins in this interactome revealed that they were linked with RNA metabolic processing and splicing, protein traffic, cytoskeleton regulation and ubiquitin-mediated protein degradation processes. Taken together, this network of protein-protein interactions will be important for understanding and further exploring the biological processes and mechanisms regulated by CIP2A both in physiological and pathological conditions.

Regulation of Mih1/Cdc25 by protein phosphatase 2A and casein kinase 1.

Project description:The Cdc25 phosphatase promotes entry into mitosis by removing cyclin-dependent kinase 1 (Cdk1) inhibitory phosphorylation. Previous work suggested that Cdc25 is activated by Cdk1 in a positive feedback loop promoting entry into mitosis; however, it has remained unclear how the feedback loop is initiated. To learn more about the mechanisms that regulate entry into mitosis, we have characterized the function and regulation of Mih1, the budding yeast homologue of Cdc25. We found that Mih1 is hyperphosphorylated early in the cell cycle and is dephosphorylated as cells enter mitosis. Casein kinase 1 is responsible for most of the hyperphosphorylation of Mih1, whereas protein phosphatase 2A associated with Cdc55 dephosphorylates Mih1. Cdk1 appears to directly phosphorylate Mih1 and is required for initiation of Mih1 dephosphorylation as cells enter mitosis. Collectively, these observations suggest that Mih1 regulation is achieved by a balance of opposing kinase and phosphatase activities. Because casein kinase 1 is associated with sites of polar growth, it may regulate Mih1 as part of a signaling mechanism that links successful completion of growth-related events to cell cycle progression.
