FKBP65 is a member of the FK506-binding protein class of immunophilins and is the only member reported to contain four peptidylprolyl cis-trans isomerase domains and an unrelated COOH-terminal domain. In this report, we show that the heat shock protein hsp90 and the serine/threonine protein kinase c-Raf-1 are components of FKBP65 immune complexes. The NH2-terminal regulatory domain of c-Raf-1 appears to be required for its interaction with FKBP65. Using GST-FKBP65 fusion protein and purified Raf proteins, we show that full-length FKBP65 can interact with c-Raf-1 but not B-Raf. The activation kinetics of c-Raf-1 after v-H-RasV12 injection of Xenopus oocytes appear to correlate with FKBP65/c-Raf-1 interaction, suggesting that FKBP65 may preferentially associate with forms of c-Raf-1 that are more posttranslationally modified. The interaction of FKBP65 with the c-Raf-heat shock protein 90 heterocomplex implicates this immunophilin in signal-transduction processes.

We have identified mouse and human FKBP60, a new member of the FKBP gene family. FKBP60 shares strongest homology with FKBP65 and SMAP. FKBP60 contains a hydrophobic signal peptide at the N-terminus, 4 peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerase (PPIase) domains and an endoplasmic reticulum retention motif (HDEL) at the C-terminus. Immunodetection of HA-tagged FKBP60 in NIH-3T3 cells suggests that FKBP60 is segregated to the endoplasmic reticulum. Northern blot analysis shows that FKBP60 is predominantly expressed in heart, skeletal muscle, lung, liver and kidney. With N-succinyl-Ala-Ala-Pro-Phe-p-nitroanilide as a substrate, recombinant GST-FKBP60 is shown to accelerate effectively the isomerization of the peptidyl-prolyl bond. This isomerization activity is inhibited by FK506. mFKBP60 binds Ca2+ in vitro, presumably by its C-terminal EF-hand Ca2+ binding motif, and is phosphorylated in vivo. hFKBP60 has been mapped to 7p12 and/or 7p14 by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH).
