Abstract

Activated Cdc42-associated kinase (ACK), a non-receptor tyrosine kinase, is an effector for the small GTPase Cdc42. ACK is emerging as an important component of the cancer landscape and thus, a promising target for the treatment of many malignancies. ACK is also being increasingly recognized as a potentially influential player in the regulation of protein homoeostasis. The delicate equilibrium between protein synthesis and protein degradation is crucial for healthy cell function and dysregulation of protein homoeostasis is a common occurrence in human disease. Here, we review the molecular mechanisms by which ACK regulates the stability of diverse cellular proteins (e.g. EGFR, p27, p53, p85 isoforms and RhoGDI-3), some of which rely on the kinase activity of ACK while others, interestingly, do not. Ultimately, further research will be required to bridge our knowledge gaps and determine if ACK regulates the stability of further cellular proteins but collectively, such mechanistic interrogation would contribute to determining whether ACK is a promising target for anti-cancer therapy. In therapeutics, proteasome inhibitors are an efficacious but problematic class of drugs. Targeting other modulators of proteostasis, like ACK, could open novel avenues for intervention.

Abstract

Funder: A.G. Levintis Foundation, PRK1 is a member of the protein kinase C-related kinase (PRK) family of serine/threonine kinases and a downstream effector of Rho GTPases. PRK1 has three N-terminal Homology Region 1 (HR1) domains (HR1a, HR1b and HR1c), which form antiparallel coiled coils that interact with Rho family GTPases. PRK1 also has a C2-like domain that targets it to the plasma membrane and a kinase domain, which is a member of the protein kinase C superfamily. PRK1 is involved in cytoskeletal regulation, cell adhesion, cell cycle progression and the immune response, and is implicated in cancer. There is currently no structural information for the HR1c domain. The 1H, 15N and 13C NMR backbone and sidechain resonance assignment of the HR1c domain presented here forms the basis for this domain’s structural characterisation. This work will also enable studies of interactions between the three HR1 domains in an effort to obtain structural insight into the regulation of PRK1 activity.

Abstract

Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein (WASP) activates the actin-related protein 2/3 homolog (Arp2/3) complex and regulates actin polymerization in a physiological setting. Cell division cycle 42 (Cdc42) is a key activator of WASP, which binds Cdc42 through a Cdc42/Rac-interactive binding (CRIB)-containing region that defines a subset of Cdc42 effectors. Here, using site-directed mutagenesis and binding affinity determination and kinetic assays, we report the results of an investigation into the energetic contributions of individual WASP residues to both the Cdc42-WASP binding interface and the kinetics of complex formation. Our results support the previously proposed dock-and-coalesce binding mechanism, initiated by electrostatic steering driven by WASP's basic region and followed by a coalescence phase likely driven by the conserved CRIB motif. The WASP basic region, however, appears also to play a role in the final complex, as its mutation affected both on- and off-rates, suggesting a more comprehensive physiological role for this region centered on the C-terminal triad of positive residues. These results highlight the expanding roles of the basic region in WASP and other CRIB-containing effector proteins in regulating complex cellular processes and coordinating multiple input signals. The data presented improve our understanding of the Cdc42-WASP interface and also add to the body of information available for Cdc42-effector complex formation, therapeutic targeting of which has promise for Ras-driven cancers. Our findings suggest that combining high-affinity peptide-binding sequences with short electrostatic steering sequences could increase the efficacy of peptidomimetic candidates designed to interfere with Cdc42 signaling in cancer.

Abstract

The Cdc42 and Rac proteins are in the Rho family of small GTPases, controlling signal-transduction pathways leading to rearrangements of the cell cytoskeleton, proliferation and differentiation. They bind to downstream effector proteins and these CRIB proteins bind to both Cdc42 and Rac. The ACK tyrosine kinases and the Wiscott-Aldrich-syndrome proteins (WASPs) are specific for Cdc42. The solution structure of the complex of Cdc42 with the GTPase-binding domain of ACK is reported.

Abstract

The alpha-p21-activated kinase (alphaPAK) domain responsible for binding between PAK and the G proteins Cdc42 and RAC is investigated using eight fragments of alphaPAK containing the interactive binding motif expressed in an Escherichia coli heterologous expression system. The interaction between these fragments and the G proteins was monitored using fluorescent techniques, scintillation proximity assays and isothermal titration calorimetry. A 30-amino acid segment containing the interactive binding sequence is sufficient to mediate alphaPAK and G protein interaction.

Abstract

Biochemical pathways dominated by p53 and Rb, tumour-supressor proteins, are the most often disrupted in cancer. It is suggested that the Rb pathway is of particular significance. The structure of the p19Ink4d protein is reported, using NMR spectroscopy. Its structure suggests that most mutations to the p16Ink4a gene will lead to loss of function because of incorrectly folded or insoluble protein. A model for the interaction of Ink4 proteins with D-type cyclin-Cdk4/6 compounds that could form the basis for the design of cancer therapeutics, is proposed.

Abstract

Cdc42 is a Rho-family small G protein that has been widely studied for its role in controlling the actin cytoskeleton and plays a part in several potentially oncogenic signaling networks. Similar to most other small G proteins, Cdc42 binds to many downstream effector proteins to elicit its cellular effects. These effector proteins all engage the same face of Cdc42, the conformation of which is governed by the activation state of the G protein. Previously, the importance of individual residues in conferring binding affinity has been explored for residues within Cdc42 for three of its Cdc42/Rac interactive binding (CRIB) effectors, activated Cdc42 kinase (ACK), p21-activated kinase (PAK), and Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein (WASP). Here, in a complementary study, we have used our structure of Cdc42 bound to ACK via an intrinsically disordered ACK region to guide an analysis of the Cdc42 interface on ACK, creating a panel of mutant proteins with which we can now describe the complete energetic landscape of the Cdc42-binding site on ACK. Our data suggest that the binding affinity of ACK relies on several conserved residues that are critical for stabilizing the quaternary structure. These residues are centered on the CRIB region, with the complete binding region anchored at each end by hydrophobic interactions. These findings suggest that ACK adopts a dock and coalesce binding mechanism with Cdc42. In contrast to other CRIB-family effectors and indeed other intrinsically disordered proteins, hydrophobic residues likely drive Cdc42-ACK binding.

Abstract

PRK1 is a member of the protein kinase C-related kinase (PRK) family of serine/threonine kinases and a downstream effector of Rho GTPases. PRK1 has three N-terminal Homology Region 1 (HR1) domains (HR1a, HR1b and HR1c), which form antiparallel coiled coils that interact with Rho family GTPases. PRK1 also has a C2-like domain that targets it to the plasma membrane and a kinase domain, which is a member of the protein kinase C superfamily. PRK1 is involved in cytoskeletal regulation, cell adhesion, cell cycle progression and the immune response, and is implicated in cancer. There is currently no structural information for the HR1c domain. The 1H, 15N and 13C NMR backbone and sidechain resonance assignment of the HR1c domain presented here forms the basis for this domain's structural characterisation. This work will also enable studies of interactions between the three HR1 domains in an effort to obtain structural insight into the regulation of PRK1 activity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Transducer of Cdc42-dependent actin assembly protein 1 (TOCA1) is an effector of the Rho family small G protein Cdc42. It contains a membrane-deforming F-BAR domain as well as a Src homology 3 (SH3) domain and a G protein-binding homology region 1 (HR1) domain. TOCA1 binding to Cdc42 leads to actin rearrangements, which are thought to be involved in processes such as endocytosis, filopodia formation, and cell migration. We have solved the structure of the HR1 domain of TOCA1, providing the first structural data for this protein. We have found that the TOCA1 HR1, like the closely related CIP4 HR1, has interesting structural features that are not observed in other HR1 domains. We have also investigated the binding of the TOCA HR1 domain to Cdc42 and the potential ternary complex between Cdc42 and the G protein-binding regions of TOCA1 and a member of the Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein family, N-WASP. TOCA1 binds Cdc42 with micromolar affinity, in contrast to the nanomolar affinity of the N-WASP G protein-binding region for Cdc42. NMR experiments show that the Cdc42-binding domain from N-WASP is able to displace TOCA1 HR1 from Cdc42, whereas the N-WASP domain but not the TOCA1 HR1 domain inhibits actin polymerization. This suggests that TOCA1 binding to Cdc42 is an early step in the Cdc42-dependent pathways that govern actin dynamics, and the differential binding affinities of the effectors facilitate a handover from TOCA1 to N-WASP, which can then drive recruitment of the actin-modifying machinery.

Abstract

A double mutant thermodynamic cycle is conducted for two key hydrophobic interactions in the Cdc42-ACK interface. The studies have shown that isolated Cdc42 has shown regions of disorder and isolated ACK has no stable tertiary structure, whereas the Cdc42-ACK complex has quaternary structure.
