RESUMO
CSK is a predominantly cytosolic protein-tyrosine kinase (PTK) that negatively regulates Src family PTKs by phosphorylation of a conserved tyrosine near their C termini. Little is known about how CSK itself is regulated. On the basis of immunofluorescence studies, a model has been proposed that when c-Src is activated, it is redistributed to podosomes, in which substrates become phosphorylated, creating binding sites for CSK. CSK is recruited to these sites of c-Src activation via its SH2 and SH3 domains and is then in a position to downregulate c-Src activity (B. W. Howell and J. A. Cooper, Mol. Cell. Biol. 14:5402-5411, 1994). To identify phosphotyrosine (P.Tyr)-containing proteins that may mediate translocation of CSK due to c-Src activation, we have examined the whole spectrum of P.Tyr-containing proteins that associate with CSK in v-Src NIH 3T3 cells by anti-P.Tyr immunoblotting. Nine P.Tyr-containing proteins coimmunoprecipitated with CSK from v-Src NIH 3T3 cells. One of these, an approximately 62-kDa protein, also associated with CSK in NIH 3T3 cells treated with vanadate prior to lysis and in NIH 3T3 cells expressing an activated c-Src mutant. This 62-kDa protein was shown to be identical to the GTPase-activating protein (GAP)-associated p62 (GAP-A.p62) protein. The interaction between CSK and GAP-A.p62 could be reconstituted in vitro with glutathione S-transferase fusion proteins containing full-length CSK or the CSK SH2 domain. Furthermore, our data show that CSK interacts directly with GAP.A-p62 and that the complex between the two proteins is localized in subcellular membrane or cytoskeletal fractions. Our results suggest that GAP-A.p62 may function as a docking protein and may mediate translocation of proteins, including GAP and CSK, to membrane or cytoskeletal regions upon c-Src activation.
