Zusammenfassung: | Interleukin 3 (IL-3) stimulates the net growth of murine factor-dependent NSF/N1.H7 and FDC-P1/ER myeloid cells by stimulating
proliferation and suppressing apoptosis. Recently, we discovered that Bcl2 is phosphorylated at an evolutionarily conserved
serine residue (Ser 70 ) after treatment with the survival agonists IL-3 or bryostatin 1, a potent activator of protein kinase (Ito, T., Deng, X.,
Carr, B., and May, W. S. (1997) J. Biol. Chem. 272, 11671â11673). In addition, an intact Ser 70 was found to be required for Bcl2âs ability to suppress apoptosis after IL-3 withdrawal or toxic chemotherapy. We now show
that phosphorylation of Bcl2 occurs rapidly after the addition of agonist to IL-3-deprived cells and can be reversed by the
action of an okadaic acid (OA)-sensitive phosphatase. A role for protein phosphatase (PP) 2A as the Bcl2 regulatory phosphatase
is supported by several observations: 1) dephosphorylation of Bcl2 is blocked by OA, a potent PP1 and PP2A inhibitor; 2) intracellular
PP2A, but not PP1, co-localizes with Bcl2; 3) the purified PP2Ac catalytic subunit directly dephosphorylates Bcl2 in vitro in an OA-sensitive manner; 4) the purified PP2Ac catalytic subunit preferentially dephosphorylates Bcl2 in vitro compared with PP1 and PP2B; 5) reciprocal immunoprecipitation studies indicate a direct interaction between PP2A and hemagglutinin
(HA)-Bcl2; and 6) treatment of factor-deprived cells with bryostatin 1 dramatically increases the association between PP2A
and Bcl2. Increased association between Bcl2 and PP2A occurs 15 min after agonist stimulation when Bcl2 phosphorylation has
peaked and immediately before dephosphorylation. An agonist-induced increased association of PP2A and Bcl2 fails to occur
in cells expressing the inactive, phosphorylation-negative S70A Bcl2 mutant, which indicates that an intact Ser 70 site is necessary and sufficient for the interaction to occur. Functional phosphorylation of Bcl2 at Ser 70 is proposed to be a dynamic process regulated by the sequential action of an agonist-activated Bcl2 kinase and PP2A. |
