Identification of major ERK-related phosphorylation sites in Gab1

Abstract

Gab1 (Grb2-associated binder1) belongs to a family of multifunctional docking proteins that play a central role in the integration of receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) signaling, i.e., mediating cellular growth response, transformation, and apoptosis. In addition to RTK-specific tyrosine phosphorylation, these docking proteins also can be phosphorylated on serine/threonine residues affecting signal transduction. Since serine and threonine phosphorylation are capable of modulating the initial signal one major task to elucidate signal transduction via Gab1 is to determine the exact localization of distinct phosphorylation sites. To address this question in this report we examined extracellular signal-regulated kinases 1/2 (ERK) specific serine/threonine phosphorylation of the entire Gab1 engaged in insulin signaling in more detail in vitro. To elucidate the ERK1/2-specific phosphorylation pattern of Gab1, we used phosphopeptide mapping by two-dimensional HPLC analysis. Subsequently, phosphorylated serine/threonine residues were identified by sequencing the separated phosphopeptides using matrix assisted laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS) and Edman degradation. Our results demonstrate that ERK1/2 phosphorylate G...Continue Reading

AKT Pathway

This feed focuses on the AKT serine/threonine kinase, which is an important signaling pathway involved in processes such as glucose metabolism and cell survival.

Cell Signaling by Tyrosine Kinases

Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) are the high-affinity cell surface receptors for many polypeptide growth factors, cytokines, and hormones. RTKs have been shown not only to be key regulators of normal cellular processes but also to have a critical role in the development and progression of many types of cancer. Discover the latest research on cell signaling and RTK here.

Apoptosis

Apoptosis is a specific process that leads to programmed cell death through the activation of an evolutionary conserved intracellular pathway leading to pathognomic cellular changes distinct from cellular necrosis
