Allosteric activation of proto-oncogene kinase Src by GPCR-beta-arrestin complexes.

ABSTRACT: G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) initiate signaling cascades via G-proteins and beta-arrestins (βarr). βarr-dependent actions begin with recruitment of βarr to the phosphorylated receptor tail and are followed by engagement with the receptor core. βarrs are known to act as adaptor proteins binding receptors and various effectors, but it is unclear whether in addition to the scaffolding role βarrs can allosterically activate their downstream targets. Here we demonstrate the direct allosteric activation of proto-oncogene kinase Src by GPCR-βarr complexes in vitro and establish the conformational basis of the activation. Whereas free βarr1 had no effect on Src activity, βarr1 in complex with M2 muscarinic or β2-adrenergic receptors reconstituted in lipid nanodiscs activate Src by reducing the lag phase in Src autophosphorylation. Interestingly, receptor-βarr1 complexes formed with a βarr1 mutant, in which the finger-loop, required to interact with the receptor core, has been deleted, fully retain the ability to activate Src. Similarly, βarr1 in complex with only a phosphorylated C-terminal tail of the vasopressin 2 receptor activates Src as efficiently as GPCR-βarr complexes. In contrast, βarr1 and chimeric M2 receptor with nonphosphorylated C-terminal tail failed to activate Src. Taken together, these data demonstrate that the phosphorylated GPCR tail interaction with βarr1 is necessary and sufficient to empower it to allosterically activate Src. Our findings may have implications for understanding more broadly the mechanisms of allosteric activation of downstream targets by βarrs.

Allosteric modulation of GPCR-induced β-arrestin trafficking and signaling by a synthetic intrabody.

Project description:Agonist-induced phosphorylation of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) is a primary determinant of β-arrestin (βarr) recruitment and trafficking. For several GPCRs such as the vasopressin receptor subtype 2 (V2R), agonist-stimulation first drives the translocation of βarrs to the plasma membrane, followed by endosomal trafficking, which is generally considered to be orchestrated by multiple phosphorylation sites. We have previously shown that mutation of a single phosphorylation site in the V2R (i.e., V2RT360A) results in near-complete loss of βarr translocation to endosomes despite robust recruitment to the plasma membrane, and compromised ERK1/2 activation. Here, we discover that a synthetic intrabody (Ib30), which selectively recognizes activated βarr1, efficiently rescues the endosomal trafficking of βarr1 and ERK1/2 activation for V2RT360A. Molecular dynamics simulations reveal that Ib30 enriches active-like βarr1 conformation with respect to the inter-domain rotation, and cellular assays demonstrate that it also enhances βarr1-β2-adaptin interaction. Our data provide an experimental framework to positively modulate the receptor-transducer-effector axis for GPCRs using intrabodies, which can be potentially integrated in the paradigm of GPCR-targeted drug discovery.

Beta-arrestin 1 mediated Src activation via Src SH3 domain revealed by cryo-electron microscopy.

Project description:Beta-arrestins (βarrs) are key regulators and transducers of G-protein coupled receptor signaling; however, little is known of how βarrs communicate with their downstream effectors. Here, we use cryo-electron microscopy to elucidate how βarr1 recruits and activates non-receptor tyrosine kinase Src. βarr1 binds Src SH3 domain via two distinct sites: a polyproline site in the N-domain and a non-proline site in the central crest region. At both sites βarr1 interacts with the aromatic surface of SH3 which is critical for Src autoinhibition, suggesting that βarr1 activates Src by SH3 domain displacement. Binding of SH3 to the central crest region induces structural rearrangements in the β-strand V, finger, and middle loops of βarr1 and interferes with βarr1 coupling to the receptor core potentially impacting receptor desensitization and downstream signaling.

The allosteric landscape of the Src kinase

Project description:Enzymes catalyze the reactions of life and are the targets of nearly all small molecule drugs. Most drugs inhibit enzymes by binding to conserved active sites, causing problems of specificity and toxicity. Targeting regulatory allosteric sites can increase specificity, overcome drug resistance and tune or activate activity.However, the vast majority of enzymes have no known allosteric sites and methods do not exist to globally identify or predict them.Here we present a general and fast method to globally chart allosteric communication in enzymes and apply it to the Src protein kinase to produce the first comprehensive map of negative and positive allosteric control of enzymatic activity. Allosteric control of Src is pervasive, anisotropic and distance dependent, but fairly predictable from simple sequence and structural features. The comprehensive allosteric map enables unbiased identification of all the allosterically active surface pockets of the Src kinase for the development of activatory and inhibitory drugs.This general approach can be used to chart global allosteric maps of many kinases, enzymes, and other biochemical activities important for medicine and biotechnology.

Allosteric interactions in the parathyroid hormone GPCR-arrestin complex formation.

Project description:Peptide ligands of class B G-protein-coupled receptors act via a two-step binding process, but the essential mechanisms that link their extracellular binding to intracellular receptor-arrestin interactions are not fully understood. Using NMR, crosslinking coupled to mass spectrometry, signaling experiments and computational approaches on the parathyroid hormone (PTH) type 1 receptor (PTHR), we show that initial binding of the PTH C-terminal part constrains the conformation of the flexible PTH N-terminal signaling epitope before a second binding event occurs. A 'hot-spot' PTH residue, His9, that inserts into the PTHR transmembrane domain at this second step allosterically engages receptor-arrestin coupling. A conformational change in PTHR intracellular loop 3 permits favorable interactions with ?-arrestin's finger loop. These results unveil structural determinants for PTHR-arrestin complex formation and reveal that the two-step binding mechanism proceeds via cooperative fluctuations between ligand and receptor, which extend to other class B G-protein-coupled receptors.

Molecular mechanism of GPCR-mediated arrestin activation.

Project description:Despite intense interest in discovering drugs that cause G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) to selectively stimulate or block arrestin signalling, the structural mechanism of receptor-mediated arrestin activation remains unclear1,2. Here we reveal this mechanism through extensive atomic-level simulations of arrestin. We find that the receptor's transmembrane core and cytoplasmic tail-which bind distinct surfaces on arrestin-can each independently stimulate arrestin activation. We confirm this unanticipated role of the receptor core, and the allosteric coupling between these distant surfaces of arrestin, using site-directed fluorescence spectroscopy. The effect of the receptor core on arrestin conformation is mediated primarily by interactions of the intracellular loops of the receptor with the arrestin body, rather than the marked finger-loop rearrangement that is observed upon receptor binding. In the absence of a receptor, arrestin frequently adopts active conformations when its own C-terminal tail is disengaged, which may explain why certain arrestins remain active long after receptor dissociation. Our results, which suggest that diverse receptor binding modes can activate arrestin, provide a structural foundation for the design of functionally selective ('biased') GPCR-targeted ligands with desired effects on arrestin signalling.

A rapid fluorogenic GPCR-β-arrestin interaction assay.

Project description:Detection of protein-protein interactions involved in signal transduction in live cells and organisms has a variety of important applications. We report a fluorogenic assay for G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR)-β-arrestin interaction that is genetically encoded, generalizes to multiple GPCRs, and features high signal-to-noise because fluorescence is absent until its components interact upon GPCR activation. Fluorescence after protease-activated receptor-1 activation developed in minutes and required specific serine-threonine residues in the receptor carboxyl tail, consistent with a classical G protein-coupled receptor kinase dependent β-arrestin recruitment mechanism. This assay provides a useful complement to other in vivo assays of GPCR activation.

Proto-oncogene Src links lipogenesis via lipin-1 to breast cancer malignancy.

Project description:Increased lipogenesis has been linked to an increased cancer risk and poor prognosis; however, the underlying mechanisms remain obscure. Here we show that phosphatidic acid phosphatase (PAP) lipin-1, which generates diglyceride precursors necessary for the synthesis of glycerolipids, interacts with and is a direct substrate of the Src proto-oncogenic tyrosine kinase. Obesity-associated microenvironmental factors and other Src-activating growth factors, including the epidermal growth factor, activate Src and promote Src-mediated lipin-1 phosphorylation on Tyr398, Tyr413 and Tyr795 residues. The tyrosine phosphorylation of lipin-1 markedly increases its PAP activity, accelerating the synthesis of glycerophospholipids and triglyceride. Alteration of the three tyrosine residues to phenylalanine (3YF-lipin-1) disables lipin-1 from mediating Src-enhanced glycerolipid synthesis, cell proliferation and xenograft growth. Re-expression of 3YF-lipin-1 in PyVT;Lpin1-/- mice fails to promote progression and metastasis of mammary tumours. Human breast tumours exhibit increased p-Tyr-lipin-1 levels compared to the adjacent tissues. Importantly, statistical analyses show that levels of p-Tyr-lipin-1 correlate with tumour sizes, lymph node metastasis, time to recurrence and survival of the patients. These results illustrate a direct lipogenesis-promoting role of the pro-oncogenic Src, providing a mechanistic link between obesity-associated mitogenic signaling and breast cancer malignancy.

Biphasic activation of β-arrestin 1 upon interaction with a GPCR revealed by methyl-TROSY NMR.

Project description:β-arrestins (βarrs) play multifaceted roles in the function of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). βarrs typically interact with phosphorylated C-terminal tail (C tail) and transmembrane core (TM core) of GPCRs. However, the effects of the C tail- and TM core-mediated interactions on the conformational activation of βarrs have remained elusive. Here, we show the conformational changes for βarr activation upon the C tail- and TM core-mediated interactions with a prototypical GPCR by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. Our NMR analyses demonstrated that while the C tail-mediated interaction alone induces partial activation, in which βarr exists in equilibrium between basal and activated conformations, the TM core- and the C tail-mediated interactions together completely shift the equilibrium toward the activated conformation. The conformation-selective antibody, Fab30, promotes partially activated βarr into the activated-like conformation. This plasticity of βarr conformation in complex with GPCRs engaged in different binding modes may explain the multifunctionality of βarrs.

Membrane phosphoinositides regulate GPCR-β-arrestin complex assembly and dynamics.

Project description:Binding of arrestin to phosphorylated G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) is crucial for modulating signaling. Once internalized, some GPCRs remain complexed with β-arrestins, while others interact only transiently; this difference affects GPCR signaling and recycling. Cell-based and in vitro biophysical assays reveal the role of membrane phosphoinositides (PIPs) in β-arrestin recruitment and GPCR-β-arrestin complex dynamics. We find that GPCRs broadly stratify into two groups, one that requires PIP binding for β-arrestin recruitment and one that does not. Plasma membrane PIPs potentiate an active conformation of β-arrestin and stabilize GPCR-β-arrestin complexes by promoting a fully engaged state of the complex. As allosteric modulators of GPCR-β-arrestin complex dynamics, membrane PIPs allow for additional conformational diversity beyond that imposed by GPCR phosphorylation alone. For GPCRs that require membrane PIP binding for β-arrestin recruitment, this provides a mechanism for β-arrestin release upon translocation of the GPCR to endosomes, allowing for its rapid recycling.
