Abstract
The adapter protein APS has previously been shown to be involved in recruiting the ubiquitin E3 ligase c-Cbl to the insulin receptor, the platelet-derived growth factor beta-receptor and the erythropoietin receptor, leading to increased degradation of the receptors and inhibition of mitogenesis. Here we demonstrate, by use of immobilized synthetic phosphopeptides corresponding to various autophosphorylated tyrosine residues in the receptor for stem-cell factor (c-Kit), that APS preferentially associates with phosphorylated Tyr-568 and Tyr-936. Tyr-568 has previously been identified as the binding site of the Src family of tyrosine kinases, the Csk-homologous kinase CHK, and the protein tyrosine phosphatase SHP-2. We have recently demonstrated that Tyr-936 is an autophosphorylation site involved in binding the adapter proteins Grb2 and Grb7. We could further demonstrate that the critical determinant for binding of APS is the presence of either a leucine or an isoleucine residue in the position +3 to the phosphorylated tyrosine. This allowed us to design mutants that selectively failed to associate with APS, while still associating with Src family members, SHP-2 and Grb2, respectively.Keywords
