Differential gene regulation by the SRC family of coactivators.

ABSTRACT: SRCs (steroid receptor coactivators) are required for nuclear receptor-mediated transcription and are also implicated in the transcription initiation by other transcription factors, such as STATs and NFkappaB. Despite phenotypic manifestations in gene knockout mice for SRC-1, GRIP1, and AIB1 of the SRC (Steroid Receptor Coactivator) family indicating their differential roles in animal physiology, there is no clear evidence, at the molecular level, to support a functional specificity for these proteins. We demonstrated in this report that two species of SRC coactivators, either as AIB1:GRIP1 or as AIB1:SRC-1 are recruited, possibly through heterodimerization, on the promoter of genes that contain a classical hormone responsive element (HRE). In contrast, on non-HRE-containing gene promoters, on which steroid receptors bind indirectly, either GRIP1 or SRC-1 is recruited as a monomer, depending on the cellular abundance of the protein. Typically, non-HRE-containing genes are early genes activated by steroid receptors, whereas HRE-containing genes are activated later. Our results also showed that SRC proteins contribute to the temporal regulation of gene transcription. In addition, our experiments revealed a positive correlation between AIB1/c-myc overexpression in ER+ breast carcinoma samples, suggesting a possible mechanism for AIB1 in breast cancer carcinogenesis.

Differential gene regulation by selective association of transcriptional coactivators and bZIP DNA-binding domains.

Project description:bZIP DNA-binding domains are targets for viral and cellular proteins that function as transcriptional coactivators. Here, we show that MBF1 and the related Chameau and HBO1 histone acetylases interact with distinct subgroups of bZIP proteins, whereas pX does not discriminate. Selectivity of Chameau and MBF1 for bZIP proteins is mediated by residues in the basic region that lie on the opposite surface from residues that contact DNA. Chameau functions as a specific coactivator for the AP-1 class of bZIP proteins via two arginine residues. A conserved glutamic acid/glutamine in the linker region underlies MBF1 specificity for a subgroup of bZIP factors. Chameau and MBF1 cannot synergistically coactivate transcription due to competitive interactions with the basic region, but either protein can synergistically coactivate with pX. Analysis of Jun derivatives that selectively interact with these coactivators reveals that MBF1 is crucial for the response to oxidative stress, whereas Chameau is important for the response to chemical and osmotic stress. Thus, the bZIP domain mediates selective interactions with coactivators and hence differential regulation of gene expression.

Metaplasticity gated through differential regulation of GluN2A versus GluN2B receptors by Src family kinases.

Project description:Metaplasticity is a higher form of synaptic plasticity that is essential for learning and memory, but its molecular mechanisms remain poorly understood. Here, we report that metaplasticity of transmission at CA1 synapses in the hippocampus is mediated by Src family kinase regulation of NMDA receptors (NMDARs). We found that stimulation of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) regulated the absolute contribution of GluN2A-versus GluN2B-containing NMDARs in CA1 neurons: pituitary adenylate cyclase activating peptide 1 receptors (PAC1Rs) selectively recruited Src kinase, phosphorylated GluN2ARs, and enhanced their functional contribution; dopamine 1 receptors (D1Rs) selectively stimulated Fyn kinase, phosphorylated GluN2BRs, and enhanced these currents. Surprisingly, PAC1R lowered the threshold for long-term potentiation while long-term depression was enhanced by D1R. We conclude that metaplasticity is gated by the activity of GPCRs, which selectively target subtypes of NMDARs via Src kinases.

Structure and dynamic regulation of Src-family kinases.

Project description:Src-family kinases are modular signaling proteins involved in a diverse array of cellular processes. All members of the Src family share the same domain organization, with modular SH3, SH2 and kinase domains followed by a C-terminal negative regulatory tail. X-ray crystallographic analyses of several Src family members have revealed critical roles for the SH3 and SH2 domains in the down-regulation of the kinase domain. This review focuses on biological, biophysical, and computational studies that reveal conformationally distinct active states within this unique kinase family.

Differential regulation of TCR-mediated gene transcription by Vav family members.

Project description:Although all three Vav family members are expressed in T lymphocytes, the role that Vav3 plays in T cell activation is poorly defined. Here we show that, like Vav1, Vav3 undergoes rapid tyrosine phosphorylation after T cell receptor (TCR) cross-linkage and interacts with the adaptor molecules SLP76 and 3BP2 in a SH2-dependent manner. However, depletion of Vav1 but not Vav3 protein by RNA interference affects TCR-mediated IL-2 promoter activity. In contrast, Vav3 function is specifically required for coupling TCR stimulation to serum response element-mediated gene transcription. These data indicate that, although both Vav proteins are biochemically coupled to the TCR, they regulate distinct molecular pathways leading to defined gene transcriptional events.

SRC family kinases are involved in the regulation of CD20

Project description:CD20 is an integrate membrane protein expressed on the surface of normal and malignant B-cells. It is an excellent molecular target for monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) that are widely used in the treatment of non-Hodgkin’s lymphomas (NHL) and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Anti-CD20-directed therapies are the most effective, successful and widely used therapeutic monoclonal antibodies, routinely incorporated into all phases of conventional treatment, including first-line, maintenance and salvage treatment. Nonetheless, the overall response rates to treatment have been reported to be 46-67% for rituximab, and in patients relapsing after initial rituximab treatment the response rate is ~40%. A number of mechanisms have been proposed to account for this inefficiency, including modulation of surface CD20 levels, occurring due to both transcriptional and posttranscriptional regulations. Our observations strongly imply that the observed CD20 down-regulation relies on transcriptional mechanism and delineate new perspectives in the field of CD20 regulation. Since many of the new therapeutic agents selectively inhibit specific signaling pathways, combining the compounds that target different mechanisms of cell growth and survival is a particularly attractive approach. However, optimal combinations of novel treatment modalities with already existing ones should take into account potential ”off-target” activity yet to be identified that could unexpectedly result in high toxicity and/or impaired outcomes of treatment

Differential sensitivity of Src-family kinases to activation by SH3 domain displacement.

Project description:Src-family kinases (SFKs) are non-receptor protein-tyrosine kinases involved in a variety of signaling pathways in virtually every cell type. The SFKs share a common negative regulatory mechanism that involves intramolecular interactions of the SH3 domain with the PPII helix formed by the SH2-kinase linker as well as the SH2 domain with a conserved phosphotyrosine residue in the C-terminal tail. Growing evidence suggests that individual SFKs may exhibit distinct activation mechanisms dictated by the relative strengths of these intramolecular interactions. To elucidate the role of the SH3:linker interaction in the regulation of individual SFKs, we used a synthetic SH3 domain-binding peptide (VSL12) to probe the sensitivity of downregulated c-Src, Hck, Lyn and Fyn to SH3-based activation in a kinetic kinase assay. All four SFKs responded to VSL12 binding with enhanced kinase activity, demonstrating a conserved role for SH3:linker interaction in the control of catalytic function. However, the sensitivity and extent of SH3-based activation varied over a wide range. In addition, autophosphorylation of the activation loops of c-Src and Hck did not override regulatory control by SH3:linker displacement, demonstrating that these modes of activation are independent. Our results show that despite the similarity of their downregulated conformations, individual Src-family members show diverse responses to activation by domain displacement which may reflect their adaptation to specific signaling environments in vivo.

Differential regulation of four members of the ACC synthase gene family in plum.

Project description:The regulation of ACC synthase (ACS) genes was studied in early ('Early Golden') and late ('Shiro') Japanese plum cultivars (Prunus salicina L.) in order to determine the role of this gene family in fruit ripening. Of the four Ps-ACS cDNAs isolated, two (Ps-ACS1 and -3) showed differential expression between the two cultivars. Ps-ACS1 accumulated during fruit ripening of 'Early Golden' ('EG') and 'Shiro' ('SH') in ethylene-dependent and -independent manners, respectively. Ps-ACS3a transcripts accumulated throughout fruit development and during 'EG' fruit ripening. Ps-ACS3b was detected only during ripening of 'SH' fruit. Furthermore, Ps-ACS3a transcript accumulation was negatively regulated by ethylene, whereas Ps-ACS3b was positively induced by the hormone. In both cultivars, the expression of Ps-ACS4 and -5 is under positive and negative feedback control by ethylene, respectively. Genetic analyses of 'EG' and 'SH' cultivars demonstrated that 'EG' is homozygous for Ps-ACS3a whereas 'SH' is heterozygous for Ps-ACS3 (a/b). The role of ethylene-overproducer 1-like in delaying fruit ripening by interacting with Ps-ACS proteins was also studied. The effect of the plant hormones, auxin, gibberellin, and cytokinin, in regulating ethylene production by promoting the induction of the different Ps-ACS mRNAs in plum was investigated. A model is presented in which differences in Ps-ACS alleles and gene expression between early and late plums are critical in determining the ripening behaviour of the cultivars.

Targeting SRC Coactivators Blocks the Tumor-Initiating Capacity of Cancer Stem-like Cells.

Project description:Tumor-initiating cells (TIC) represent cancer stem-like cell (CSC) subpopulations within tumors that are thought to give rise to recurrent cancer after therapy. Identifying key regulators of TIC/CSC maintenance is essential for the development of therapeutics designed to limit recurrence. The steroid receptor coactivator 3 (SRC-3) is overexpressed in a wide range of cancers, driving tumor initiation, cell proliferation, and metastasis. Here we report that SRC-3 supports the TIC/CSC state and induces an epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) by driving expression of the master EMT regulators and stem cell markers. We also show that inhibition of SRC-3 and SRC-1 with SI-2, a second-generation SRC-3/SRC-1 small-molecule inhibitor, targets the CSC/TIC population both in vitro and in vivo Collectively, these results identify SRC coactivators as regulators of stem-like capacity in cancer cells and that these coactivators can serve as potential therapeutic targets to prevent the recurrence of cancer.

Role of Src Family Kinases in Regulation of Intestinal Epithelial Homeostasis.

Project description:Proper regulation of epithelial cell turnover is important for the structural integrity and homeostasis of various tissues, including the intestine. Here we show that ablation of Csk, a negative regulator of Src family kinases (SFKs), specifically in intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) resulted in the development of hyperplasia throughout the intestinal epithelium of mice. Such conditional ablation of Csk also increased the proliferative activity and turnover of IECs, disturbed the differentiation of Paneth and goblet cells, reduced the number of intestinal stem cells, and attenuated the expression of Wnt target genes in the intestine. Moreover, the tyrosine phosphorylation of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) and the activities of both Rac and Yes-associated protein (YAP) were increased in intestinal crypts or organoids of the mutant mice, whereas inhibition of Rac or YAP activity rescued the mutant phenotypes. Our results thus suggest that SFKs promote the proliferation of IECs in intestinal crypts through activation of Rac or YAP and that they thereby contribute to the proper regulation of IEC turnover and intestinal homeostasis.

Differential transformation capacity of Src family kinases during the initiation of prostate cancer.

Project description:Src family kinases (SFKs) are pleiotropic activators that are responsible for integrating signal transduction for multiple receptors that regulate cellular proliferation, invasion, and metastasis in a variety of human cancers. Independent groups have identified increased expression of individual SFK members during prostate cancer progression, raising the question of whether SFKs display functional equivalence. Here, we show that Src kinase, followed by Fyn kinase and then Lyn kinase, exhibit ranked tumorigenic potential during both paracrine-induced and cell-autonomous-initiated prostate cancer. This quantitative variation in transformation potential appears to be regulated in part by posttranslational palmitoylation. Our data indicate that development of inhibitors against specific SFK members could provide unique targeted therapeutic strategies.
