Abstract: | Aggregation of many cell-surface receptors results in tyrosine phosphorylation of numerous proteins. We previously observed the tyrosine phosphorylation of the platelet/endothelial cell adhesion molecule, PECAM-1 (CD31), after FcepsilonRI stimulation in rat basophilic leukemia RBL-2H3 cells. Here we found that PECAM-1 was also transiently tyrosine-phosphoryated after adherence of these cells to fibronectin. Similarly aggregation of the T cell receptor on Jurkat cells also induced this tyrosine phosphorylation. The protein-tyrosine phosphatase SHP-2 is a widely expressed cytosolic enzyme with two Src homology 2 (SH2) domains. SHP-2, but not the related protein-tyrosine phosphatase SHP-1, associated with PECAM-1. This association of the two proteins correlated with the extent of the tyrosine phosphorylation of PECAM-1. A fusion protein containing the two SH2 domains of SHP-2 precipitated PECAM-1 from cell lysates and also directly bound to phosphorylated PECAM-1. In immune precipitate phosphatase assays, there was tyrosine dephosphorylation of PECAM-1. Therefore, integrin and immune receptor activation results in tyrosine phosphorylation of PECAM-1 and the binding of the protein-tyrosine phosphatase SHP-2, which could regulate receptor-mediated signaling in cells. |
