Modulation of activation-loop phosphorylation by JAK inhibitors is binding mode dependent.

چکیده
Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors are being developed for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, myeloproliferative neoplasms, and leukemias. Most of these drugs target the ATP-binding pocket and stabilize the active conformation of the JAK kinases. This type I binding mode can lead to an increase in JAK activation loop phosphorylation, despite blockade of kinase function. Here we report that stabilizing the inactive state via type II inhibition acts in the opposite manner, leading to a loss of activation loop phosphorylation. We used X-ray crystallography to corroborate the binding mode and report for the first time the crystal structure of the JAK2 kinase domain in an inactive conformation. Importantly, JAK inhibitor-induced activation loop phosphorylation requires receptor interaction, as well as intact kinase and pseudokinase domains. Hence, depending on the respective conformation stabilized by a JAK inhibitor, hyperphosphorylation of the activation loop may or may not be elicited.

The JAK-binding protein JAB inhibits Janus tyrosine kinase activity through binding in the activation loop.
The Janus family of protein tyrosine kinases (JAKs) regulate cellular processes involved in cell growth, differentiation and transformation through their association with cytokine receptors. However, compared with other kinases, little is known about cellular regulators of the JAKs. We have recently identified a JAK-binding protein (JAB) that inhibits JAK signaling in cells. In the studies pres...
متن کاملEffects of Antiproliferative Protein (APP) on Modulation of Cytosolic Protein Phosphorylation of Prostatic Carcinoma Cell Line LNCaP
Antiproliferative protein (APP) isolated from conditioned media of two androgen-independent prostatic carcinoma cell lines, PC3 and Du-145 was shown to inhibit selectively cell proliferation of androgen-dependent prostate cancer cell line LNCaP in a dose dependent manner. This protein was further purified with HPLC using hydrophobic interaction column (phenyl 5PW) and was used to study the modu...
متن کاملProtein kinase d inhibitors uncouple phosphorylation from activity by promoting agonist-dependent activation loop phosphorylation.
Protein kinase D (PKD) is acutely activated by two tightly coupled events: binding to the second messenger diacylglycerol (DAG) followed by novel protein kinase C (nPKC) phosphorylation at the activation loop and autophosphorylation at the C terminus. Thus, phosphorylation serves as a widely accepted measure of PKD activity. Here we show that treatment of cells with PKD inhibitors paradoxically...
متن کاملO-13: Phosphorylation of 4E-BP1 Promotes Translation at The Oocyte Spindle
Background: Fully grown mammalian oocyte utilizes transcripts synthetized and stored during earlier development. In the mouse oocyte there are three forms of cap-dependent translational repressors: 4E-BP1, 4E-BP2, and 4E-BP3. The dominant form, 4E-BP1, inhibits cap-dependent translation by binding to the eIF4E translation initiation factor. Hyperphosphorylation of 4E-BP1 disrupts this inhibitor...
متن کاملMediator Kinase Phosphorylation of STAT1 S727 Promotes Growth of Neoplasms With JAK-STAT Activation
Constitutive JAK-STAT signaling drives the proliferation of most myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN) and a subset of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), but persistence emerges with chronic exposure to JAK inhibitors. MPN and post-MPN AML are dependent on tyrosine phosphorylation of STATs, but the role of serine STAT1 phosphorylation remains unclear. We previously demonstrated that Mediator kinase inh...
