    Mutation that blocks ATP binding creates a pseudokinase stabilizing the scaffolding function of kinase suppressor of Ras, CRAF and BRAF [Biochemistry] (2011)
    National Academy of Sciences
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-04-13
    Description: Because mutations in RAS and BRAF represent the most common mutations found in human tumors, identification of inhibitors has been a major goal. Surprisingly, new oncogenic BRAF specific inhibitors inhibit cells transformed with mutated BRAF but paradoxically stimulate the growth of cells transformed with RAS. Here, we show that the mechanism for activation is via drug-induced dimer formation between CRAF and kinase suppressor of Ras (KSR)1. To understand the function of KSR1, we generated a KSR1 mutant that cannot bind ATP but stabilizes the closed, active conformation of KSR1. Molecular modeling suggested that the mutant stabilizes the two hydrophobic spines critical for the closed active conformation. We, therefore, could use the mutant to discriminate between the scaffold versus kinase functions of KSR1. The KSR1 mutant bound constitutively to RAF and mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MEK) but could not reconstitute activity suggesting that the catalytic activity of KSR1 is required for its function. Analogous mutations in BRAF and CRAF allowed us to test the generality of the model. The mutation induced changes consistent with the active, closed conformation of both kinases and confirmed that BRAF functions distinctly from CRAF in the MAP kinase pathway. Not only does this work suggest that KSR1 may function as a kinase, we anticipate that the mutation that we generated may be broadly applicable to stabilize the closed conformation of other kinases many of which may also form dimers.

    Congenital nephrotic syndrome in mice lacking CD2-associated protein (1999)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1999-10-09
    Description: CD2-associated protein (CD2AP) is an 80-kilodalton protein that is critical for stabilizing contacts between T cells and antigen-presenting cells. In CD2AP-deficient mice, immune function was compromised, but the mice died at 6 to 7 weeks of age from renal failure. In the kidney, CD2AP was expressed primarily in glomerular epithelial cells. Knockout mice exhibited defects in epithelial cell foot processes, accompanied by mesangial cell hyperplasia and extracellular matrix deposition. Supporting a role for CD2AP in the specialized cell junction known as the slit diaphragm, CD2AP associated with nephrin, the primary component of the slit diaphragm.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Shih, N Y -- Li, J -- Karpitskii, V -- Nguyen, A -- Dustin, M L -- Kanagawa, O -- Miner, J H -- Shaw, A S -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1999 Oct 8;286(5438):312-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Center for Immunology and Department of Pathology, Washington University, Saint Louis, MO 63110, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10514378" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    The immunological synapse: a molecular machine controlling T cell activation (1999)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1999-07-10
    Description: The specialized junction between a T lymphocyte and an antigen-presenting cell, the immunological synapse, consists of a central cluster of T cell receptors surrounded by a ring of adhesion molecules. Immunological synapse formation is now shown to be an active and dynamic mechanism that allows T cells to distinguish potential antigenic ligands. Initially, T cell receptor ligands were engaged in an outermost ring of the nascent synapse. Transport of these complexes into the central cluster was dependent on T cell receptor-ligand interaction kinetics. Finally, formation of a stable central cluster at the heart of the synapse was a determinative event for T cell proliferation.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Grakoui, A -- Bromley, S K -- Sumen, C -- Davis, M M -- Shaw, A S -- Allen, P M -- Dustin, M L -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1999 Jul 9;285(5425):221-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Center for Immunology and the Department of Pathology, Washington University School of Medicine, 660 South Euclid Avenue, St. Louis, MO 63110, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10398592" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    T cell receptor signaling precedes immunological synapse formation (2002)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2002-02-23
    Description: The area of contact between a T cell and an antigen-presenting cell (APC) is known as the immunological synapse. Although its exact function is unknown, one model suggests that it allows for T cell receptor (TCR) clustering and for sustained signaling in T cells for many hours. Here we demonstrate that TCR-mediated tyrosine kinase signaling in naive T cells occurred primarily at the periphery of the synapse and was largely abated before mature immunological synapses had formed. These data suggest that many hours of TCR signaling are not required for T cell activation. These observations challenge current ideas about the role of immunological synapses in T cell activation.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lee, Kyeong-Hee -- Holdorf, Amy D -- Dustin, Michael L -- Chan, Andrew C -- Allen, Paul M -- Shaw, Andrey S -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2002 Feb 22;295(5559):1539-42.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pathology and Immunology, Washington University School of Medicine, 660 South Euclid, Box 8118, Saint Louis, MO 63110, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11859198" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Mitotic and G2 checkpoint control: regulation of 14-3-3 protein binding by phosphorylation of Cdc25C on serine-216 (1997)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1997-09-05
    Description: Human Cdc25C is a dual-specificity protein phosphatase that controls entry into mitosis by dephosphorylating the protein kinase Cdc2. Throughout interphase, but not in mitosis, Cdc25C was phosphorylated on serine-216 and bound to members of the highly conserved and ubiquitously expressed family of 14-3-3 proteins. A mutation preventing phosphorylation of serine-216 abrogated 14-3-3 binding. Conditional overexpression of this mutant perturbed mitotic timing and allowed cells to escape the G2 checkpoint arrest induced by either unreplicated DNA or radiation-induced damage. Chk1, a fission yeast kinase involved in the DNA damage checkpoint response, phosphorylated Cdc25C in vitro on serine-216. These results indicate that serine-216 phosphorylation and 14-3-3 binding negatively regulate Cdc25C and identify Cdc25C as a potential target of checkpoint control in human cells.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Peng, C Y -- Graves, P R -- Thoma, R S -- Wu, Z -- Shaw, A S -- Piwnica-Worms, H -- AI34094/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- GM18428/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM47017/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Sep 5;277(5331):1501-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Cell Biology and Physiology, Washington University School of Medicine, 660 South Euclid Avenue, St. Louis, MO 63110, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9278512" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    CD2-associated protein haploinsufficiency is linked to glomerular disease susceptibility (2003)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2003-05-24
    Description: Loss of CD2-associated protein (CD2AP), a component of the filtration complex in the kidney, causes death in mice at 6 weeks of age. Mice with CD2AP haploinsufficiency developed glomerular changes at 9 months of age and had increased susceptibility to glomerular injury by nephrotoxic antibodies or immune complexes. Electron microscopic analysis of podocytes revealed defects in the formation of multivesicular bodies, suggesting an impairment of the intracellular degradation pathway. Two human patients with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis had a mutation predicted to ablate expression of one CD2AP allele, implicating CD2AP as a determinant of human susceptibility to glomerular disease.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kim, Jeong M -- Wu, Hui -- Green, Gopa -- Winkler, Cheryl A -- Kopp, Jeffrey B -- Miner, Jeffrey H -- Unanue, Emil R -- Shaw, Andrey S -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2003 May 23;300(5623):1298-300.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pathology and Immunology, Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, MO 63110, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12764198" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    The immunological synapse balances T cell receptor signaling and degradation (2003)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2003-09-27
    Description: The immunological synapse is a specialized cell-cell junction between T cell and antigen-presenting cell surfaces. It is characterized by a central cluster of antigen receptors, a ring of integrin family adhesion molecules, and temporal stability over hours. The role of this specific organization in signaling for T cell activation has been controversial. We use in vitro and in silico experiments to determine that the immunological synapse acts as a type of adaptive controller that both boosts T cell receptor triggering and attenuates strong signals.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lee, Kyeong-Hee -- Dinner, Aaron R -- Tu, Chun -- Campi, Gabriele -- Raychaudhuri, Subhadip -- Varma, Rajat -- Sims, Tasha N -- Burack, W Richard -- Wu, Hui -- Wang, Julia -- Kanagawa, Osami -- Markiewicz, Mary -- Allen, Paul M -- Dustin, Michael L -- Chakraborty, Arup K -- Shaw, Andrey S -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2003 Nov 14;302(5648):1218-22.
