چکیده

Insulin stimulates tyrosine phosphorylation of insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1) and She in Rat1 fibroblasts overexpressing wild type insulin receptors. We investigated the relative role of IRS-1 and She in insulin activation of guanine nucleotide releasing factor (GNRF) and p21ras-GTP formation. The time course of insulin-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of IRS-1 was rapid, whereas Shc phosphorylation was relatively slow. Growth factor receptor bound protein-2 (Grb2) associated with IRS-1 rapidly and gradually dissociated after 5 min, whereas Grb2 association with Shc was slower and reached a maximum at 10 min after insulin stimulation. Thus, the kinetics of Grb2 association with IRS-1 and She corresponded closely to the time course of tyrosine phosphorylation of IRS-1 and Shc, respectively. Importantly, 3-13-fold more Grb2 was associated with Shc than with IRS-1. In addition, the kinetics of insulin-stimulated GNRF activity and p21ras-GTP formation corresponded more closely to the time course of Shc phosphorylation than to the kinetics of IRS-1 phosphorylation. Furthermore, immunoprecipitation of Shc proteins from cell lysates of insulin-stimulated cells removed 67% of the GNRF activity, whereas precipitation of IRS-1 had a negligible effect on GNRF activity. Thus, although both IRS-1 and Shc associate with Grb2, the current results indicate that Shc plays a more important role than IRS-1 in insulin stimulation of GNRF activity and subsequent p21ras-GTP formation.

The functional significance of Shc in insulin signaling as a substrate of the insulin receptor.

Shc is composed of 46-, 52-, 66-kDa isoforms which arise from alternative splicing of the primary Shc transcript. Upon insulin stimulation, the activated insulin receptor interacts with Shc. The NPXY motif around 960-Tyr residue of the insulin receptor binds to the N-terminal PTB domain of Shc. Subsequently, the 52-kDa, and, to a lesser extent, the 46-kDa Shc isoforms are tyrosine phosphorylate...

Evidence for a functional role of Shc proteins in mitogenic signaling induced by insulin, insulin-like growth factor-1, and epidermal growth factor.

Shc proteins contain a single SH2 domain, lack catalytic activity, and are substrates for activated receptors for insulin, insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), and epidermal growth factor (EGF). Treatment with these growth factors induced rapid tyrosine phosphorylation of Shc. We investigated the potential role of Shc in mitogenic signaling. Affinity-purified antibodies were microinjected into...

Coupling between p210bcr-abl and Shc and Grb2 adaptor proteins in hematopoietic cells permits growth factor receptor-independent link to ras activation pathway

Enforced expression of p210bcr-abl transforms interleukin 3 (IL-3)-dependent hematopoietic cell lines to growth factor-independent proliferation. It has been demonstrated that nonreceptor tyrosine kinase oncogenes may couple to the p21ras pathway to exert their transforming effect. In particular, p210bcr-abl was recently found to effect p21ras activation in hematopoietic cells. In this context,...

The function of GRB2 in linking the insulin receptor to Ras signaling pathways.

Insulin-induced activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinases [ERKs, also known as mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases] is mediated by Ras. Insulin activates Ras primarily by increasing the rate of guanine nucleotide-releasing activity. Here, we show that insulin-induced activation of ERKs was enhanced by stable overexpression of growth factor receptor-bound protein 2 (GRB2) but not ...

Biphasic activation of p21ras by endothelin-1 sequentially activates the ERK cascade and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase.

Endothelin-1 (ET-1) induces cell proliferation and differentiation through multiple G-protein-linked signaling systems, including p21ras activation. Whereas p21ras activation and desensitization by receptor tyrosine kinases have been extensively investigated, the kinetics of p21ras activation induced by engagement of G-protein-coupled receptors remains to be fully elucidated. In the present stu...
