p85α neomorphic mutants: splitting away from the canonical path
نویسندگان
چکیده
PIK3R1 (encoding the p85α subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase) is the 11th most frequently mutated gene across tumors. We recently reported neomorphic p85α mutants that induce signaling cascades not predicted by the canonical functions of p85α, suggesting the need to functionally annotate specific mutations in cancer genes for effective genome-informed personalized therapy.

Naturally occurring neomorphic PIK3R1 mutations activate the MAPK pathway, dictating therapeutic response to MAPK pathway inhibitors.
PIK3R1 (p85α regulatory subunit of PI3K) is frequently mutated across cancer lineages. Herein, we demonstrate that the most common recurrent PIK3R1 mutation PIK3R1(R348∗) and a nearby mutation PIK3R1(L370fs), in contrast to wild-type and mutations in other regions of PIK3R1, confers an unexpected sensitivity to MEK and JNK inhibitors in vitro and in vivo. Consistent with the response to inhibit...
متن کاملRegulation of the PI3K pathway through a p85α monomer–homodimer equilibrium
The canonical action of the p85α regulatory subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) is to associate with the p110α catalytic subunit to allow stimuli-dependent activation of the PI3K pathway. We elucidate a p110α-independent role of homodimerized p85α in the positive regulation of PTEN stability and activity. p110α-free p85α homodimerizes via two intermolecular interactions (SH3:proline...
متن کاملOncogenic mutations of thyroid hormone receptor β
The C-terminal frame-shift mutant of the thyroid hormone receptor TRβ1, PV, functions as an oncogene. An important question is whether the oncogenic activity of mutated TRβ1 is uniquely dependent on the PV mutated sequence. Using four C-terminal frame-shift mutants-PV, Mkar, Mdbs, and AM-we examined that region in the oncogenic actions of TRβ1 mutants. Remarkably, these C-terminal mutants induc...
متن کاملInfinite-dimensional versions of the primary, cyclic and Jordan decompositions
The famous primary and cyclic decomposition theorems along with the tightly related rational and Jordan canonical forms are extended to linear spaces of infinite dimensions with counterexamples showing the scope of extensions.
متن کاملIdentification of Mutations in Distinct Regions of p85 Alpha in Urothelial Cancer
Bladder cancers commonly show genetic aberrations in the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase signaling pathway. Here we have screened for mutations in PIK3R1, which encodes p85α, one of the regulatory subunits of PI3K. Two hundred and sixty-four bladder tumours and 41 bladder tumour cell lines were screened and 18 mutations were detected. Thirteen mutations were in C-terminal domains and are predicte...
