    Abstract Abnormally increased signaling by the GTPase RAP1 favors progression of diverse tumors. We have characterized the auto-regulation and activation of C3G (RAPGEF1), an activator of RAP1. This led us to discover mutations in non-Hodgkin's lymphomas that activate C3G-RAP1 constitutively, suggesting that deregulation of C3G may favor the dissemination of tumor cells.

    Abstract Hemidesmosomes (HDs) are specialized multiprotein complexes that connect the keratin cytoskeleton of epithelial cells to the extracellular matrix (ECM). In the skin, these complexes provide stable adhesion of basal keratinocytes to the underlying basement membrane. Integrin α6β4 is a receptor for laminins and plays a vital role in mediating cell adhesion by initiating the assembly of HDs. In addition, α6β4 has been implicated in signal transduction events that regulate diverse cellular processes, including proliferation and survival. In this Review, we detail the role of α6β4 in HD assembly and beyond, and we discuss the molecular mechanisms that regulate its function.

    Abstract Background: C3G is a guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) that activates Rap1 to promote cell adhesion. Resting C3G is autoinhibited and the GEF activity is released by stimuli that signal through tyrosine kinases. C3G is activated by tyrosine phosphorylation and interaction with Crk adaptor proteins, whose expression is elevated in multiple human cancers. However, the molecular details of C3G activation and the interplay between phosphorylation and Crk interaction are poorly understood.
    Methods: We combined biochemical, biophysical, and cell biology approaches to elucidate the mechanisms of C3G activation. Binding of Crk adaptor proteins to four proline-rich motifs (P1 to P4) in C3G was characterized in vitro using isothermal titration calorimetry and sedimentation velocity, and in Jurkat and HEK293T cells by affinity pull-down assays. The nucleotide exchange activity of C3G over Rap1 was measured using nucleotide-dissociation kinetic assays. Jurkat cells were also used to analyze C3G translocation to the plasma membrane and the C3G-dependent activation of Rap1 upon ligation of T cell receptors.
    Results: CrkL interacts through its SH3N domain with sites P1 and P2 of inactive C3G in vitro and in Jurkat and HEK293T cells, and these sites are necessary to recruit C3G to the plasma membrane. However, direct stimulation of the GEF activity requires binding of Crk proteins to the P3 and P4 sites. P3 is occluded in resting C3G and is essential for activation, while P4 contributes secondarily towards complete stimulation. Tyrosine phosphorylation of C3G alone causes marginal activation. Instead, phosphorylation primes C3G lowering the concentration of Crk proteins required for activation and increasing the maximum activity. Unexpectedly, optimal activation also requires the interaction of CrkL-SH2 domain with phosphorylated C3G.
    Conclusion: Our study revealed that phosphorylation of C3G by Src and Crk-binding form a two-factor mechanism that ensures tight control of C3G activation. Additionally, the simultaneous SH2 and SH3N interaction of CrkL with C3G, required for the activation, reveals a novel adaptor-independent function of Crk proteins relevant to understanding their role in physiological signaling and their deregulation in diseases.

    Abstract Mutations in the adaptor protein PSTPIP1 cause a spectrum of autoinflammatory diseases, including PAPA and PAMI; however, the mechanism underlying these diseases remains unknown. Most of these mutations lie in PSTPIP1 F-BAR domain, which binds to LYP, a protein tyrosine phosphatase associated with arthritis and lupus. To shed light on the mechanism by which these mutations generate autoinflammatory disorders, we solved the structure of the F-BAR domain of PSTPIP1 alone and bound to the C-terminal homology segment of LYP, revealing a novel mechanism of recognition of Pro-rich motifs by proteins in which a single LYP molecule binds to the PSTPIP1 F-BAR dimer. The residues R228, D246, E250, and E257 of PSTPIP1 that are mutated in immunological diseases directly interact with LYP. These findings link the disruption of the PSTPIP1/LYP interaction to these diseases, and support a critical role for LYP phosphatase in their pathogenesis.

    Abstract In epithelial cancers, the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and integrin α6β4 are frequently overexpressed and found to synergistically activate intracellular signaling pathways that promote cell proliferation and migration. In cancer cells, the β4 subunit is phosphorylated at tyrosine residues not normally recognized as kinase substrates; however, the function of these phosphotyrosine residues in cancer cells is a subject of much debate. In EGFR-overexpressing carcinoma cells, we found that the Src family kinase (SFK) inhibitor PP2 reduces β4 tyrosine phosphorylation following the activation of EGFR. However, siRNA mediated knockdown of the SFKs Src, Fyn, Yes and Lyn, individually or in combination, did not affect the EGF-induced phosphorylation of β4. Using phospho-peptide affinity chromatography and mass spectrometry, we found that PLCγ1 binds β4 at the phosphorylated residues Y1422/Y1440, but were unable to verify this interaction in A431 carcinoma cells that overexpress the EGFR. Furthermore, using A431 cells devoid of β4 or reconstituted with phenylalanine specific mutants of β4, the activation of several downstream signaling pathways, including PLCγ/PKC, MAPK and PI3K/Akt, were not substantially affected. We conclude that tyrosine-phosphorylated β4 does not enhance EGFR-mediated signaling in EGFR-overexpressing cells, despite the fact that this integrin subunit is highly tyrosine phosphorylated in these cells.
