چکیده

Activation of the KIT receptor tyrosine kinase contributes to the pathogenesis of several human diseases, but the mechanisms regulating KIT signaling have not been fully characterized. Here, we show that stem cell factor (SCF), the ligand for KIT, induces the interaction between KIT and Cbl proteins and their mutual degradation. Upon SCF stimulation, KIT binds to and induces the phosphorylation of Cbl proteins, which in turn act as E3 ligases, mediating the ubiquitination and degradation of KIT and themselves. Tyrosine kinase binding and RING finger domains of Cbl are essential for Cbl-mediated ubiquitination and degradation of KIT. We propose a negative feedback loop controlling the SCF-KIT signaling pathway, in which SCF activates KIT. The activated KIT in turn induces phosphorylation and activation of Cbl proteins. The Cbl proteins then bind and direct the degradation of activated KIT, leading to down-regulation of KIT signaling.

CIN85 participates in Cbl-b-mediated down-regulation of receptor tyrosine kinases.

The Cbl family of ubiquitin ligases in mammals contains three members, Cbl, Cbl-b, and Cbl-3, that are involved in down-regulation of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) by mediating receptor ubiquitination and degradation. More recently, a novel pathway has been identified whereby Cbl promotes internalization of EGF receptor via a CIN85/endophilin pathway that is functionally separable from the u...

Loss of Cbl and Cbl-b ubiquitin ligases abrogates hematopoietic stem cell quiescence and sensitizes leukemic disease to chemotherapy

Cbl and Cbl-b are tyrosine kinase-directed RING finger type ubiquitin ligases (E3s) that negatively regulate cellular activation pathways. E3 activity-disrupting human Cbl mutations are associated with myeloproliferative disorders (MPD) that are reproduced in mice with Cbl RING finger mutant knock-in or hematopoietic Cbl and Cbl-b double knockout. However, the role of Cbl proteins in hematopoie...

Inactivation of c-Cbl or Cbl-b differentially affects signaling from the high affinity IgE receptor.

The Cbl family of proteins negatively regulate signaling from tyrosine kinase-coupled receptors. Among the three members of this family, only c-Cbl and Cbl-b are expressed in hemopoietic cells. To examine the role of c-Cbl and Cbl-b in Fc epsilon RI signaling, mast cell cultures from wild-type, c-Cbl(-/-), and Cbl-b(-/-) mice were generated. Cell growth rates and cell surface expression of Fc e...

Establishment of the major compatibility complex-dependent development of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells by the Cbl family proteins.

Casitas B cell lymphoma (Cbl) proteins are negative regulators for T cell antigen receptor (TCR) signaling. Their role in thymocyte development remains unclear. Here we show that simultaneous inactivation of c-Cbl and Cbl-b in thymocytes enhanced thymic negative selection and altered the ratio of CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells. Strikingly, the mutant thymocytes developed into CD4(+)- and CD8(+)-line...

E3 ligase-defective Cbl mutants lead to a generalized mastocytosis and myeloproliferative disease.

Somatic mutations of Kit have been found in leukemias and gastrointestinal stromal tumors. The proto-oncogene c-Cbl negatively regulates Kit and Flt3 by its E3 ligase activity and acts as a scaffold. We recently identified the first c-Cbl mutation in human disease in an acute myeloid leukemia patient, called Cbl-R420Q. Here we analyzed the role of Cbl mutants on Kit-mediated transformation.
