The TCR is a multisubunit complex that consists of clonotypic alpha/beta chains noncovalently associated with the invariant CD3 delta/epsilon/gamma and TCR zeta chains. T cell activation by antigen presenting cells (APCs) results in the activation of protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs) that associate with CD3 and TCR zeta subunits and the co-receptor CD4. Members of the Src kinases (Lck), Syk kinases (ZAP-70), Tec (Itk) and Csk families of nonreceptor PTKs play a crucial role in T cell activation. Activation of PTKs following TCR engagement results in the recruitment and tyrosine phosphorylation of enzymes such as phospholipase C gamma1 and Vav as well as critical adaptor proteins such as LAT, SLP-76 and Gads. These proximal activation leads to reorganization of the cytoskeleton as well as transcription activation of multiple genes leading to T lymphocyte proliferation, differentiation and/or effector function.

Co-immunoprecipitation studies and size exclusion chromatography analysis indicate that the high molecular weight (around 700 to 900 kDa) IKK complex is composed of two kinase subunits (IKK1/CHUK/IKBKA and/or IKK2/IKBKB/IKKB) bound to a regulatory gamma subunit (IKBKG/NEMO) (Rothwarf DMet al. 1998; Krappmann D et al. 2000; Miller BS & Zandi E 2001). Variants of the IKK complex containing IKBKA or IKBKB homodimers associated with NEMO may also exist. Crystallographic and quantitative analyses of the binding interactions between N-terminal NEMO and C-terminal IKBKB fragments showed that IKBKB dimers would interact with NEMO dimers resulting in 2:2 stoichiometry (Rushe M et al. 2008). Chemical cross-linking and equilibrium sedimentation analyses of IKBKG (NEMO) suggest a tetrameric oligomerization (dimers of dimers) (Tegethoff S et al. 2003). The tetrameric NEMO could sequester four kinase molecules, yielding an 2xIKBKA:2xIKBKB:4xNEMO stoichiometry (Tegethoff S et al. 2003). The above data suggest that the core IKK complex consists of an IKBKA:IKBKB heterodimer associated with an IKBKG dimer or higher oligomeric assemblies. However, the exact stoichiometry of the IKK complex remains unclear.
Signaling by AKT is one of the key outcomes of receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) activation. AKT is activated by the cellular second messenger PIP3, a phospholipid that is generated by PI3K. In ustimulated cells, PI3K class IA enzymes reside in the cytosol as inactive heterodimers composed of p85 regulatory subunit and p110 catalytic subunit. In this complex, p85 stabilizes p110 while inhibiting its catalytic activity. Upon binding of extracellular ligands to RTKs, receptors dimerize and undergo autophosphorylation. The regulatory subunit of PI3K, p85, is recruited to phosphorylated cytosolic RTK domains either directly or indirectly, through adaptor proteins, leading to a conformational change in the PI3K IA heterodimer that relieves inhibition of the p110 catalytic subunit. Activated PI3K IA phosphorylates PIP2, converting it to PIP3; this reaction is negatively regulated by PTEN phosphatase. PIP3 recruits AKT to the plasma membrane, allowing TORC2 to phosphorylate a conserved serine residue of AKT. Phosphorylation of this serine induces a conformation change in AKT, exposing a conserved threonine residue that is then phosphorylated by PDPK1 (PDK1). Phosphorylation of both the threonine and the serine residue is required to fully activate AKT. The active AKT then dissociates from PIP3 and phosphorylates a number of cytosolic and nuclear proteins that play important roles in cell survival and metabolism. For a recent review of AKT signaling, please refer to Manning and Cantley, 2007.
At the plasma membrane, phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate 3-phosphatase and dual-specificity protein phosphatase aka phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) dephosphorylates phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PI(3,4,5)P3) to phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P2) (Maehama & Dixon 1998, Myers et al. 1998, Das et al. 2003). The PI3K network is negatively regulated by phospholipid phosphatases that dephosphorylate PIP3, thus hampering AKT activation (Myers et al. 1998). The tumour suppressor PTEN is the primary phospholipid phosphatase. Early studies indicated that magnesium ion, Mg2+, was needed for the catalytic activity of PTEN isolated from bovine thymus (Kabuyama et al. 1996). Subsequent studies have shown that PTEN was catalytically active in buffers free of magnesium and magnesium was not detected as part of the PTEN crystal (Lee et al. 1999).
PI3K activation results in recruitment of the serine/threonine kinase PDK1, (3-phosphoinositide-dependent kinase 1) to the plasma membrane where PDK1 subsequently phosphorylates and activates AKT. PDK1 with its PH domain binds to either PIP3 or PIP2 and is translocated to the plasma membrane. PDK1 seems to exist in an active, phosphorylated configuration under basal conditions (Vanhaesebroeck & Alessi 2000).
The autophosphorylated, active Lck is now proximally positioned to phosphorylate specific tyrosine residues within ITAMs (immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motifs) located within the CD3 and the TCR zeta signaling chains of the TCR. ITAMs consist of evolutionarily conserved amino-acid sequence motifs of D/ExYxxLx(6-8)YxxL. Both the tyrosine residues in the motif are phosphorylated by Lck and the TCR complex include 10 ITAMs with one ITAM in each of the CD3 chains including the three tandem ITAMs in each zeta chains.
In ZAP-70 there are multiple phosphorylation sites (Y292, Y315, Y319, Y492, Y493) which have both positive and negative regulatory effect on its catalytic activity. Tyrosine 493 is a conserved regulatory site found within the activation loop of the kinase domain. This site has shown to be a positive regulatory site required for ZAP-70 kinase activity and is phosphorylated by Lck. This phosphorylation contribute to the active conformation of the catalytic domain.
Later ZAP-70 undergoes trans-autophosphorylation at Y315 and Y319. These sites appear to be positive regulatory sites. ZAP-70 achieve its full activation after the trans-autophosphorylation. Activated ZAP-70 phosphorylates T-cell-specific adaptors, such as LAT and SLP-76 leading to the recruitment and activation of other kinase families and enzymes, resulting in secondary messenger generation and culminating in T cell activation.
In response to the TCR stimulation, phsophoinositides are phosphorylated on the 3-position of the inositol ring by PI3K to generate lipid second messengers that serve as membrane docking sites for a variety of downstream effector proteins such as PDK1 and PKB. PI3K is a heterodimer comprising a regulatory subunit p85 and a catalytic subunit p110 which associate constitutively and are activated upon interaction with tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins at the plasma membrane. The p85 subunit contains two SH2 domains and an SH3 domain. p85 subunit is involved in interaction with two phsophotyrosine residues of the adaptor protein TRIM with its two SH2 domains. This interaction is important in recruiting the p110 subunit to the plasma membrane and activate the p110 kinase activity, which is normally inhibited in the p85-p110 complex.
TCR stimulation induce the transient dephosphorylation of PAG thereby release the Csk from its plasma membrane anchor. The release of Csk from its proximity with Lck may serve to facilitate the activation of Lck.Protein tyrosine phosphtase CD45 (PTPRC) and CD148 (PTPRJ) have dual function in TCR signalling. They act both in activation as well as inactivation of Src family kinases (SFKs) which are involved in the initiation of TCR signal transduction (Stepanek et al. 2011). The activatory role is to dephosphorylate an inhibitory site tyrosine 505 (Y505) at the C-terminal end of Lck, which is needed to enable Lck to an open conformation and expose the activation loop (A-loop) containing the activating tyrosine 394 (Y394) (Xu et al. 1993. McNeill et al. 2007, Zikherman et al. 2010, Stepanek et al. 2011, Salmond et al. 2009).
Once SLP-76 is recruited to Gads its rapidly phosphorylated on the tyrosine residues in the N-terminal acidic domain. This domain contains three tyrosine phosphorylation sites, Y113, Y128 and Y145. These tyrosine residues are phosphorylated by tyrosine kinase ZAP-70 and these phosphorylated tyrosine residues provide the binding site for the SH2 domains of the incoming signaling proteins like Vav, Itk and PLC-gamma1.
Raft localized PKC theta is further phosphorylated and activated by PDK1. The threonine residue (T538) in the kinase domain is the potential target of PDK1. Phosphorylation of this site is critical for the PKC theta kinase activity, and its ability to activate NF-kB pathway. PKC theta is later trans-autophopshorylated on putative phosphorylation sites (S676, S695) for the fine-tuning of its kinase activity.
Lck is a member of the Src family tyrosine kinases and these members have the following domains in common: N-terminal Myristoylation site for saturated fatty acid addition, a unique region, a Src-homology 3 (SH3) domain, an SH2 domain, a tyrosine kinase domain (SH1), and a C-terminal negative regulatory domain. Myristoylation engenders Lck with the ability to attach to cellular membranes. This interaction is mediated by both myristic acid and palmitic acid that are bound to the amino terminal glycine and Cys-3 and/or Cys-5.
The unique region of Lck is thought to be involved in the interaction with the cytoplasmic tails of coreceptors CD4 and CD8. The Lck/CD4 interaction require conserved cysteine motifs: a CxCP motif in CD4 and a CxxC motif in the Lck unique domain. The SH3 and SH2 domains of Lck are involved in intramolecular and intermolecular regulation by mediating protein-protein interactions via poly-proline and phosphotyrosine-specific interactions, respectively.
Lck adopts specific conformation that largely dictate its level of activity. The C-ter tail has an autoinhibitory phosphorylation site (tyr 505). When the Y505 is phosphorylated, Lck adopts a closed conformation, where the pY505 residue creates an intramolecular binding motif for the SH2 domain, effectively inactivating the kinase domain. The inactivating phosphorylation on Y505 is carried out by the Src-specific kinase Csk.
After the generation of PIP3 by PI3K, a part of it is further dephosphorylated to generate other forms of PI which are also involved in signaling. Two major routes for the degradation of PIP3 exists: dephosphorylation by the haematopoietic-specific SH2 domain-containing inositol 5' phosphatase SHIP-1 and dephosphorylation by the 3' phosphoinositide phosphatase PTEN. SHIP-1 appears to set an activation threshold on T cell signaling. SHIP-1 phosphatase activity removes the 5' phosphate of PIP3 and generate phosphatidylinositol 3,4-bisphosphate. PI(3,4)P2 along with PIP3 preferentially binds to the PH domains of PKB and PDK1.
SLP-76 is an adaptor protein that links proximal and distal T cell receptor signaling events through its function as a molecular scaffold in the assembly of multi molecular signaling complexes. SLP-76 consists of three domains that mediate interactions with many different signaling proteins: an N-terminal acidic domain containing three tyrosine phosphorylation sites, a large central proline-rich region, and a C-terminal SH2 domain. The function of SLP-76 is dependent on its association with Gads. SLP-76 constitutively binds through its 'RxxK' motif in the proline rich region to the SH3 domain of Gads upon TCR activation.
The adaptor molecule LAT (Linker for the Activation of T cells) is a membrane protein that links the TCR signal to the cell activation. It has a total 10 (Y36, Y45, Y64, Y110, Y156, Y161, Y200, Y220, and Y255) conserved TBSMs (tyrosine based signaling motifs) in its cytoplasmic region. These tyrosine residues are phosphorylated by the activated ZAP-70 upon TCR/CD3 complex engagement. Phosphorylation of LAT creates binding sites for the Src homology 2 (SH2) domains of other proteins, including PLC-gamma1, Grb2 and Gads, and indirectly binds SOS, Vav, SLP-76, and Itk. The residues Y200, Y220 and Y255 are responsible for Grb2 binding, Y200 and Y220 but not Y255, are necessary for Gads binding and Y161 for the PLC-gamma1 binding (numbering based on Uniprot isoform 1).
Three tyrosine residues at positions 771, 783 and 1254 in PLC-gamma1 have been identified as the sites of receptor tyrosine kinase phosphorylation. Of these Y783 and Y1254 are required for activation of PLC-gamma1. The phosphorylation of the tyrosine residues and the activation of PLC-gamma1 is mediated by both Syk tyrosine kinase ZAP-70 and Tec kinase ITK.
The binding of CD4/CD8 to non-polymorphic regions of MHC brings Lck in to proximity with TCR subunits phosphorylation. Lck is further phosphorylated to promote the active conformation and to increase their catalytic activity. The C-term domain contain a regulatory activation loop, which is the site of activating Tyr 394 phosphorylation. This tyrosine is auto-phosphorylated to attain an active conformation on TCR stimulation. Now Lck through its kinase activity phosphorylates the ITAMs in TCR zeta and CD3 members.
PKC theta localizes at the interface between T cells and antigen presenting cells. Upon the T cell activation and release of the second messengers Ca++ and DAG by PLC-gamma1, DAG binds to the C1 domain of the PKC theta thereby enhances the attachment to the plasma membrane. Upon membrane translocation, PKC theta is phosphorylated at tyrosine 90 in the C2 like domain. This phosphorylation is mediated by the tyrosine kinase Lck. These association and, most likely, other regulatory interactions, lead to a change in PKC theta conformation into an open, active state whereby it can now access its substrates and phosphorylate them.
Gads is a member of the Grb2 family containing SH2 and SH3 domains with the arrangement SH3-SH2-SH3. Gads binds to the tyrosine phosphorylated residues Y171 and Y191 of LAT through its SH2 domain. It plays a critical role in signaling from the T cell receptor by promoting the formation of a complex between SLP-76 and LAT.
DAG along with intracellular calcium signals cooperatively to activate PKCs, which then trigger other pathways such as the NF-kB pathway, ultimately leading to mast cell (MC) degranulation and cytokine production (Wu 2011). PKC theta is a member of the Ca++ independent and DAG dependent, novel PKC subfamily expressed mainly in T cells. It contains, N-term C2 like domain, a pseudosubstrate (PS), DAG binding (C1) domain and a C-term kinase domain. The PS sequence resembles an ideal substrate with the exception that it contains an alanine residue instead of a substrate serine residue, is bound to the kinase domain in the resting state. As a result, PKC theta is maintained in a closed inactive state, which is inaccessible to cellular substrates. MCs express several Protein kinase C (PKC) isozymes and these kinases are involved in both the activation and termination of the degranulation process. PKC-delta is a negative regulator of FCERI mediated mast cell degranulation, whereas PKC-theta facilitates in degranulation (Leitges et al. 2002, Liu et al. 2001). In response to FCERI activation PKC-theta translocates to membrane by binding to DAG with its C1 domain. PKC-theta exists in two conformations closed/inactive and open/active state. In resting state, PKC-theta is autoinhibited where the pseudosubstrate sequence in the N-terminal regulatory region of PKC-theta forms intramolecular interaction with the substrate-binding region in the catalytic domain. This prevents the catalytic domain gaining access to substrates. The allosteric change of PKC-theta from closed to open state involves two important mechanisms: DAG binding to the C1 domains and autophosphorylation of T538 on the activation loop. Interaction with DAG induces conformational change resulting in the exposure of the activation loop of PKC-theta (Wang et al. 2012, Melowic et al. 2007).
PLC-gamma1 plays an important role in transducing the external signal in to second messengers by hydrolysing PIP2. PLC-gamma1 contains an N-term PH domain, a catalytic domain 'X' followed by two SH2 domains and an SH3 domain, a C-term catalytic domain 'Y' and a C2 domain (Ca++ binding). PLC-gamma1 interacts with both SLP-76 aswell as LAT. It interacts with its SH3 domain to the proline rich sequence of SLP-76. This interaction aids in localizing PLC-gamma1 to the membrane. This recruitment of PLC-gamma1 to LAT and SLP-76 is essential for its TCR induced tyrosine phosphorylation and activation.
Phosphorylation of the ITAMs by Lck is followed by the recruitment of the ZAP-70 a member of Syk family PTK, to the receptor complex. ZAP-70 is exclusively expressed in T cells and NK cells. The dually phosphorylated ITAMs provide a high-affinity docking site for the tandem SH2-domains of the ZAP-70. Once recruited, ZAP-70 is activated by phosphorylation and will be responsible for the phosphorylation of further downstream molecules. Due to the presence of 10 ITAMs in the TCR complex, up to 10 ZAP-70 molecules may cluster on the fully phosphorylated receptors.
Activated PLA-gamma1 translocates to the plasmamembrane and interacts with the inositol ring of the membrane bound phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) with its PH domain.
PI3K enzyme bound to adaptor protein TRIM, uses phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) as its substrate and phosphorylates it to generate phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PIP3). This PIP3 acts as a membrane anchor for the downstream proteins like PDK1 and PKB.
ITK is a member of the Tec protein tyrosine kinase family which forms a complex with SLP-76 after TCR activation. ITK has N-terminal pleckstrin homology (PH) domain, a Tec homology (TH) domain, a proline rich domain, a SH3 domain, an SH2 domain and a C-term kinase domain. The SH2 domain of ITK may interact with Y145 within the N-ter acidic domain of SLP-76 and the SH3 domain of the ITK binds the proline rich region of SLP-76. ITK plays an important role in phosphorylating and activating PLC-gamma-1, leading to the development of second-messenger molecules.
CARMA1 and Bcl10 are the possible link between PKC theta and IKK activation. PDK1 is also required for PKC theta mediated activation of IKK. CARMA1 has a N-terminal CARD motif, a coiled coiled region, a linker region, and a MAGUK-typical PDZ, SH3 and a GUK domains. The linker region is proposed to contain a hinge region and a CARD binding domain. CARMA1 exists in an inactive conformation in which the linker region binds to and blocks the accessibility of the CARD motif. CARMA1 is recruited to the plasma membrane by binding to the 'PxxP' motif of membrane bound PDK1 with its SH3 domain.
On recruitment to plasma membrane PLC-gamma1 then hydrolyses PIP2 producing two second messengers, diacylglycerol (DAG) and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3). IP3 induces a transient increase in intracellular free Ca++, while DAG is a direct activator of protein kinase C (PKC theta). These process have been implicated in many cellular physiological functions like cell proliferation, cell growth and differentiation.
Antigen receptor triggered PKC theta dependent linker phosphorylation of S552 residue is required to release this inhibition and expose the CARD motif for downstream Bcl10 recruitment. PDK1 and maybe other unknown adapter proteins bring PKC theta and CARMA1 into close proximity, facilitating PKC theta mediated CARMA1 phosphorylation and consequent activation.
After the phosphorylation and activation CARMA1 undergoes oligomerization, likely through its CC domain. CARMA1 is thought to oligomerize first as a trimer which triggers downstream oligomerization cascade that is ultimately necessary for the subsequent activation of the IKK complex.
TRAF6 possesses ubiquitin ligase activity and undergoes K-63-linked auto-ubiquitination after its oligomerization. In the first step, ubiquitin is activated by an E1 ubiquitin activating enzyme. The activated ubiquitin is transferred to a E2 conjugating enzyme (a heterodimer of proteins Ubc13 and Uev1A) forming the E2-Ub thioester. Finally, in the presence of ubiquitin-protein ligase E3 (TRAF6, a RING-domain E3), ubiquitin is attached to the target protein (TRAF6 on residue Lysine 124) through an isopeptide bond between the C-terminus of ubiquitin and the epsilon-amino group of a lysine residue in the target protein. In contrast to K-48-linked ubiquitination that leads to the proteosomal degradation of the target protein, K-63-linked polyubiquitin chains act as a scaffold to assemble protein kinase complexes and mediate their activation through proteosome-independent mechanisms. This K63 polyubiquitinated TRAF6 activates the TAK1 kinase complex.
Upon interaction with CARMA1, Bcl10 undergoes phosphorylation and oligomerization. The oligomerized Bcl10 acts as a adaptor for the incoming MALT1 and TRAF6. Phosphorylation events of Bcl10 can both positively and negatively regulate the NF-kB pathway. Phosphorylation of Bcl10 that depends on the Ser/Thr kinase RIP2 and correlated with the physical association of Bcl10 with RIP2 has a activation effect on the NF-kB pathway. The target sites of RIP2-mediated phosphorylation has not yet been identified.
Bcl10 is recruited to activated, oligomeric CARMA1 through a CARD-CARD interaction. Bcl10 is characterized by an N-terminal CARD motif and a C-terminal extension of ~130 amino acids rich in serine and threonine residues that serve as targets for multiple phosphorylation events.
TRAF6, which plays central role in innate immune responses, is implicated as proximal downstream effector of MALT1. TRAF6 is a member of the TRAF proteins. It contains an N-term RING domain, followed by several Zn finger domains and C-term MATH domain. The MALT1 oligomers bind to TRAF6, induce TRAF6 oligomerization and thereby activate the ubiquitin ligase activity of TRAF6 to polyubiquitinate itself and NEMO.
Oligomerized Bcl10 facilitates the association with MALT1 to form the CBM signalosome. MALT1 possesses one death domain (DD) and 2 immunoglobulin-like domains (Ig-like) in its N-terminal region and a caspase like domain (CLD) in its C-terminal region. The region between amino acids 107 and 119 of Bcl10 bind to the two Ig-like domains of MALT1. After binding to CARMA1 and Bcl10 complex, MALT1 also undergoes oligomerization. Only the oligomerized forms of Bcl10 and MALT1 are capable of activating IKK.
The IkB kinase (IKK) complex serves as the master regulator for the activation of NF-kB by various stimuli. It contains two catalytic subunits, IKK alpha and IKK beta, and a regulatory subunit, IKKgamma/NEMO. The activation of IKK complex is dependent on the phosphorylation of IKK alpha/beta at its activation loop and the K63-linked ubiquitination of NEMO. This basic trimolecular complex is referred to as the IKK complex. IKK subunits have a N-term kinase domain a leucine zipper (LZ) motifs, a helix-loop-helix (HLH) and a C-ter NEMO binding domain (NBD). IKK catalytic subunits are dimerized through their LZ motifs. IKK beta is the major IKK catalytic subunit for NF-kB activation. Activated TAK1 phosphorylate IKK beta on serine residues (S177 and S181) in the activation loop and thus activate the IKK kinase activity, leading to the IkB alpha phosphorylation and NF-kB activation.
Ubiquitinated TRAF6 recruits TAB2 and activates the TAB2-associated TAK1 kianse by promoting the autophosphorylation of TAK1. TAB2 contains an N-term pseudophosphatase domain, which is indispensable for TAK1 activation, and a C-term domain that binds to and activates TAK1. The activation of TAK1/TAB2 complex requires a ubiquitination reaction catalysed by E1, Ubc13/Uev1A (E2) and TRAF6 (E3). TAK1 undergoes autophosphorylation on residues T184 and T187 and gets activated. Activated TAK1 then phosphorylates and activates IKK beta.
During the phosphorylation of the IKK beta, the regulatory subunit NEMO undergoes K-63-linked polyubiquitination. Ubiquitinated TRAF6 trimer, acts as a E3 ligase and induces this ubiquitination. The ubiquitin target sites in NEMO are not yet clearly identified. Studies of different NF-kB signaling pathways revealed several potential ubiquitination sites on NEMO (e.g., K285, K277, K309 and K399) (Fuminori et al. 2009).
NF-kB is sequestered in the cytosol of unstimulated cells through the interactions with a class of inhibitor proteins, called IkBs, which mask the nuclear localization signal (NLS) of NF-kB and prevent its nuclear translocation. A key event in NF-kB activation involves phosphorylation of IkB (at sites equivalent to Ser32 and Ser36 of IkB-alpha or Ser19 and Ser22 of IkB-beta) by IKK. The phosphorylated IkB-alpha is recognized by the E3 ligase complex and targeted for ubiquitin-mediated proteasomal degradation, releasing the NF-kB dimer p50/p65 into the nucleus to turn on target genes. (Karin & Ben-Neriah 2000)
Csk is a tyrosine kinase that phosphorylates the negative regulatory C-terminal tyrosine residue Y505 of Lck to maintain Lck in an inactive state. In resting T cells, Csk is targeted to lipid rafts through engagement of its SH2 domain with phosphotyrosine residue pY317 of PAG. PAG is expressed as a tyrosine phosphorylated protein in nonstimulated T-cells. This interaction of Csk and PAG allows activation of Csk and inhibition of Lck. Given that PAG-1 T cell knock out show a weak phenotype, some other protein may substitute in activating Csk.
The released NF-kB transcription factor (p50/p65) with unmasked nuclear localization signal (NLS) moves in to the nucleus. Once in the nucleus, NF-kB binds DNA and regulate the expression of genes encoding cytokines, cytokine receptors, and apoptotic regulators.
SLP-76 inducibly-associates with ADAP (also known as FYN-binding protein or SLAP-130) a hematopoietic-specific adapter protein. ADAP has been implicated in T cell migration and rearrangement of the actin cytoskeleton. In platelets, adhesion to fibrinogen stimulates the association of SLP-76 with ADAP and VASP (Obergfell et al. 2001). ADAP knockout mice exhibit mild thrombocytopenia (Kasirer-Friede et al. 2007).
The second SH3 domain of NCK interacts with the carboxy-terminal SH3 domain of WASP. WASP family proteins bind the Arp2/3 complex, stimulating its ability to nucleate actin filaments and induce filament branching.
NCK binds to PAK through its second SH3 domain. PAK interacts with NCK via the amino terminal SH3 binding domain. This interaction leads to the phosphorylation of NCK at multiple sites.
SLP-76 interacts with the adaptor protein NCK1. This interaction involved the SH2 domain of NCK1, leaving 3 three SH3 domains free to interact with other proteins, notably PAK1, N-WASP and Sos.
ADAP (FYB) is an adaptor protein containing multiple binding motifs including an enabled protein vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein homology domain 1 (EVH1)-binding domain. This domain binds Ena-VASP family proteins that regulate actin dynamics. The Ena-VASP family member EVL is found in regions of dynamic actin polymerization, such as F-actin rich patches and the distal tips of microspikes.
Following ubiquitination Ikappa B-alpha (IKBA) is rapidly degraded by 26S-proteasome, allowing NF-kB to translocate into the nucleus where it activates gene transcription (Spencer et al. 1999).
Two major signaling steps are required for the removal of IkappaB (IkB) alpha an inhibitor of NF-kB: activation of the IkB kinase (IKK) and degradation of the phosphorylated IkB alpha. IKK activation and IkB degradation involve different ubiquitination modes; the former is mediated by K63-ubiquitination and the later by K48-ubiquitination. Mutational analysis of IkB alpha has indicated that K21 and K22 are the primary sites for addition of multiubiquitination chains while K38 and K47 are the secondary sites. In a transesterification reaction the ubiquitin is transferred from the ubiquitin-activating enzyme (E1) to an E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme, which may, in turn, transfer the ubiquitin to an E3 ubiquitin protein ligase. UBE2D2 (UBC4) or UBE2D1 (UBCH5) or CDC34 (UBC3) acts as the E2 and SCF (SKP1-CUL1-F-box)-beta-TRCP complex acts as the E3 ubiquitin ligase (Strack et al. 2000, Wu et al. 2010). beta-TRCP (beta-transducin repeats-containing protein) is the substrate recognition subunit for the SCF-beta-TRCP E3 ubiquitin ligase. beta-TRCP binds specifically to phosphorylated IkB alpha and recruits it to the SCF complex, allowing the associated E2, such as UBC4 and or UBCH5 to ubiquitinate Ikappa B alpha (Baldi et al. 1996, Rodriguez et al. 1996, Scherer et al. 1995, Alkalay et al. 1995).
In unstimulated T-lymphocytes, protein tyrosine phosphatase PTPN22 (LYP, PEP) is associated with CSK, which inhibits the catalytic activity of PTPN22. In response to TCR-stimulation, the complex of CSK and PTPN22 dissociates through an unknown mechanism, which allows PTPN22 to be recruited to lipid rafts. The PTPN22 variant PTPN22 R620W, the result of a SNP associated with autoimmune diseases, does not bind to CSK and is constitutively active (Vang et al. 2012).
Protein tyrosine phosphatase PTPN22 (LYP, PEP) dephosphorylates ZAP70 adaptor protein on tyrosine residue Y493, resulting in reduced activation of ZAP70. Dephosphorylation of ZAP70 contributes to PTPN22-mediated downregulation of TCR signaling (Wu et al. 2006).

RIP2Early studies indicated that magnesium ion, Mg2+, was needed for the catalytic activity of PTEN isolated from bovine thymus (Kabuyama et al. 1996). Subsequent studies have shown that PTEN was catalytically active in buffers free of magnesium and magnesium was not detected as part of the PTEN crystal (Lee et al. 1999).
The unique region of Lck is thought to be involved in the interaction with the cytoplasmic tails of coreceptors CD4 and CD8. The Lck/CD4 interaction require conserved cysteine motifs: a CxCP motif in CD4 and a CxxC motif in the Lck unique domain. The SH3 and SH2 domains of Lck are involved in intramolecular and intermolecular regulation by mediating protein-protein interactions via poly-proline and phosphotyrosine-specific interactions, respectively.
Lck adopts specific conformation that largely dictate its level of activity. The C-ter tail has an autoinhibitory phosphorylation site (tyr 505). When the Y505 is phosphorylated, Lck adopts a closed conformation, where the pY505 residue creates an intramolecular binding motif for the SH2 domain, effectively inactivating the kinase domain. The inactivating phosphorylation on Y505 is carried out by the Src-specific kinase Csk.
SHIP-1 appears to set an activation threshold on T cell signaling. SHIP-1 phosphatase activity removes the 5' phosphate of PIP3 and generate phosphatidylinositol 3,4-bisphosphate. PI(3,4)P2 along with PIP3 preferentially binds to the PH domains of PKB and PDK1.
MCs express several Protein kinase C (PKC) isozymes and these kinases are involved in both the activation and termination of the degranulation process. PKC-delta is a negative regulator of FCERI mediated mast cell degranulation, whereas PKC-theta facilitates in degranulation (Leitges et al. 2002, Liu et al. 2001). In response to FCERI activation PKC-theta translocates to membrane by binding to DAG with its C1 domain. PKC-theta exists in two conformations closed/inactive and open/active state. In resting state, PKC-theta is autoinhibited where the pseudosubstrate sequence in the N-terminal regulatory region of PKC-theta forms intramolecular interaction with the substrate-binding region in the catalytic domain. This prevents the catalytic domain gaining access to substrates. The allosteric change of PKC-theta from closed to open state involves two important mechanisms: DAG binding to the C1 domains and autophosphorylation of T538 on the activation loop. Interaction with DAG induces conformational change resulting in the exposure of the activation loop of PKC-theta (Wang et al. 2012, Melowic et al. 2007).
IKK subunits have a N-term kinase domain a leucine zipper (LZ) motifs, a helix-loop-helix (HLH) and a C-ter NEMO binding domain (NBD). IKK catalytic subunits are dimerized through their LZ motifs. IKK beta is the major IKK catalytic subunit for NF-kB activation. Activated TAK1 phosphorylate IKK beta on serine residues (S177 and S181) in the activation loop and thus activate the IKK kinase activity, leading to the IkB alpha phosphorylation and NF-kB activation.
