p56lck interacts via its src homology 2 domain with the ZAP-70 kinase
نویسندگان
چکیده
p56lck, a member of the src family of protein tyrosine kinases, is an essential component in T cell receptor (TCR) signal transduction. p56lck contains a src homology 2 (SH2) domain found in a number of proteins involved in intracellular signaling. SH2 domains have been implicated in protein-protein interactions by binding to sequences in target proteins containing phosphorylated tyrosine. Using an in vitro assay, we have studied specific binding of tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins to a recombinant p56lck SH2 domain. In nonactivated Jurkat cells, two tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins were detected. Stimulation with anti-CD3 monoclonal antibodies induced the binding of seven additional tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins to the SH2 domain of p56lck. We have identified the zeta-associated tyrosine kinase, ZAP-70, as one of these proteins. Evidence suggests that binding of ZAP-70 to p56lck SH2 is direct and not mediated by zeta. The significance of this interaction was further investigated in vivo. p56lck could be coprecipitated with the zeta/ZAP-70 complex and conversely, ZAP-70 was detected in p56lck immunoprecipitates of activated Jurkat cells. The physical association of p56lck and ZAP-70 during activation supports the recently proposed functional cooperation of these two tyrosine kinases in TCR signaling.

During antigen recognition by T cells, CD4 and the T-cell receptor (TCR)/CD3/zeta complex are thought to interact with the same major histocompatibility complex II molecule in a stable ternary complex. Evidence has suggested that the association of CD4 with TCR/CD3/zeta requires the interaction of the protein tyrosine kinase p56lck with CD4. We have taken a biochemical approach to understand th...
متن کاملTyrosine 319 in the interdomain B of ZAP-70 is a binding site for the Src homology 2 domain of Lck.
T-cell antigen receptor-induced signaling requires both ZAP-70 and Lck protein-tyrosine kinases. One essential function of Lck in this process is to phosphorylate ZAP-70 and up-regulate its catalytic activity. We have previously shown that after T-cell antigen receptor stimulation, Lck binds to ZAP-70 via its Src homology 2 (SH2) domain (LckSH2) and, more recently, that Tyr319 of ZAP-70 is phos...
متن کاملThe Structural Basis for Activation and Inhibition of ZAP-70 Kinase Domain
ZAP-70 (Zeta-chain-associated protein kinase 70) is a tyrosine kinase that interacts directly with the activated T-cell receptor to transduce downstream signals, and is hence a major player in the regulation of the adaptive immune response. Dysfunction of ZAP-70 causes selective T cell deficiency that in turn results in persistent infections. ZAP-70 is activated by a variety of signals includin...
متن کاملSLAP, a dimeric adapter protein, plays a functional role in T cell receptor signaling.
Engagement of the T cell antigen receptor (TCR) leads to rapid activation of protein tyrosine kinases, which in turn phosphorylate downstream enzymes and adapter proteins. Some adapter proteins, such as SLP-76, Vav, and LAT, positively regulate TCR-mediated signal transduction, whereas others, such as Cbl, play an inhibitory role. SLAP (Src-like adapter protein), an adapter protein containing a...
