Two families of tyrosine kinases, the Src and Syk families, are required for T-cell receptor activation. While the Src kinases are responsible for phosphorylation of receptor-encoded signaling motifs and for up-regulation of ZAP-70 activity, the downstream substrates of ZAP-70 are unknown. Evidence is presented herein that the Src homology 2 (SH2) domain-containing leukocyte protein of 76 kDa (SLP-76) is a substrate of ZAP-70. Phosphorylation of SLP-76 is diminished in T cells that express a catalytically inactive ZAP-70. Moreover, SLP-76 is preferentially phosphorylated by ZAP-70 in vitro and in heterologous cellular systems. In T cells, overexpression of wild-type SLP-76 results in a hyperactive receptor, while expression of a SLP-76 molecule that is unable to be tyrosine-phosphorylated attenuates receptor function. In addition, the SH2 domain of SLP-76 is required for T-cell receptor function, although its role is independent of the ability of SLP-76 to undergo tyrosine phosphorylation. As SLP-76 interacts with both Grb2 and phospholipase C-gamma1, these data indicate that phosphorylation of SLP-76 by ZAP-70 provides an important functional link between the T-cell receptor and activation of ras and calcium pathways.

Tyrosine phosphorylation of cellular proteins mediates the assembly and localization of effector proteins through interactions facilitated by modular Src homology 2 (SH2) and phosphotyrosine binding domains. We describe here two tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins with Mr values of 70,000 and 68,000 that interact with Grb2, phospholipase C (PLCgamma1 and PLCgamma2), and Vav after B cell receptor cross-linking. The interaction of pp70 and pp68 with PLC and Vav is mediated by the carboxyl-terminal SH2 domain of PLC and the SH2 domain of Vav. In contrast, the interaction of pp70 and pp68 with Grb2 requires cooperative binding of the SH2 and SH3 domains of Grb2. Western blot analysis demonstrated that neither pp70 nor pp68 represented the recently described linker protein SLP-76, which binds Grb2, PLC, and Vav in T cells after T cell receptor activation. Moreover, SLP-76 protein was not detected in a number of B cell lines or in normal mouse B cells. Hence, we propose that pp70 and pp68 likely represent B cell homologs of SLP-76 which facilitate and coordinate B cell activation.

Activation of nonreceptor protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs) is essential for T cell receptor (TCR) responsiveness; however, the function of individual PTK substrates is often uncertain. A mutant T cell line was isolated that lacked expression of SLP-76 (SH2 domain-containing leukocyte protein of 76 kilodaltons), a hematopoietically expressed adaptor protein and PTK substrate. SLP-76 was not required for TCR-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of most proteins, but was required for optimal tyrosine phosphorylation and activation of phospholipase C-gamma1 (PLC-gamma1), as well as Ras pathway activation. TCR-inducible gene expression was dependent on SLP-76. Thus, coupling of TCR-regulated PTKs to downstream signaling pathways requires SLP-76.

The adapter protein SLP-76 is expressed in T lymphocytes and hematopoietic cells of the myeloid lineage, and is known to be a substrate of the protein tyrosine kinases that are activated after ligation of the T-cell antigen receptor. Transient overexpression of SLP-76 in a T-cell line potentiates transcriptional activation after T-cell receptor ligation, while loss of SLP-76 expression abrogates several T-cell receptor-dependent signaling pathways. Mutant mice that lack SLP-76 manifest a severe block at an early stage of thymocyte development, implicating SLP-76 in signaling events that promote thymocyte maturation. While it is clear that SLP-76 plays a key role in development and activation of T lymphocytes, relatively little is understood regarding its role in transducing signals initiated after receptor ligation in other hematopoietic cell types. In this report, we describe fetal hemorrhage and perinatal mortality in SLP-76-deficient mice. Although megakaryocyte and platelet development proceeds normally in the absence of SLP-76, collagen-induced platelet aggregation and granule release is markedly impaired. Furthermore, treatment of SLP-76-deficient platelets with collagen fails to elicit tyrosine phosphorylation of phospholipase C-gamma2 (PLC-gamma2), suggesting that SLP-76 functions upstream of PLC-gamma2 activation. These data provide one potential mechanism for the fetal hemorrhage observed in SLP-76-deficient mice and reveal that SLP-76 expression is required for optimal receptor-mediated signal transduction in platelets as well as T lymphocytes.

Collagen-related peptide (CRP), a collagen homologue, induces platelet activation through a tyrosine kinase-dependent pathway, leading to sequential tyrosine phosphorylation of Fc receptor (FcR) gamma-chain, Syk, and phospholipase C-gamma2. Here we report that CRP and the platelet low affinity immune receptor FcgammaRIIA stimulate tyrosine phosphorylation of the T cell adapter SLP-76, whereas the G protein-coupled receptor agonist thrombin induces only minor tyrosine phosphorylation. This suggests that SLP-76 has a specific role downstream of receptors that signal via an immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif. Immunoprecipitation studies demonstrate association of SLP-76 with SLAP-130, Vav, Fyn, Lyn, and the FcR gamma-chain in CRP-stimulated platelets. Several of these proteins, including SLP-76, undergo tyrosine phosphorylation in in vitro kinase assays performed on SLP-76 immunoprecipitates. Tyrosine phosphorylation of all of these proteins in the in vitro kinase assay was abrogated by the Src family kinase inhibitor PP1, suggesting that it is mediated by either Fyn or Lyn. The physiological significance of this is uncertain, however, since tyrosine phosphorylation of SLP-76 in vivo is not altered in either Fyn- or Lyn-deficient platelets. CRP stimulation of Syk-deficient platelets demonstrated that in vivo tyrosine phosphorylation of SLP-76 is downstream of Syk. The absence of Syk in the SLP-76 immunoprecipitates raises the possibility that another protein is responsible for bringing SLP-76 to Syk. Candidates for this include those proteins that co-immunoprecipitate with SLP-76, including the FcR gamma-chain. Tyrosine phosphorylation of PLC-gamma2 and Ca2+ mobilization is markedly attenuated in SLP-76-deficient platelets following CRP stimulation, suggesting that the adapter plays a critical role in the regulation of the phospholipase. The increase in tyrosine phosphorylation of SLAP-130 in response to CRP is also inhibited in SLP-76-deficient platelets, placing it downstream of SLP-76. This work identifies SLP-76 as an important adapter molecule that is regulated by Syk and lies upstream of SLAP-130 and PLC-gamma2 in CRP-stimulated platelets.

Accumulating evidence indicates that the interdomain B regions of ZAP-70 and Syk play pivotal roles in the coupling of T-cell antigen receptor (TCR) stimulation to the activation of downstream signaling pathways. The interdomain B region of ZAP-70 contains at least three candidate sites of tyrosine phosphorylation. In this report, we identify Tyr319 as a functionally important phosphorylation site in the ZAP-70 interdomain B region. TCR crosslinkage triggered a rapid increase in the phosphorylation of Tyr319 in Jurkat T cells. Although mutation of Tyr319 to Phe had no effect on the tyrosine kinase activity of ZAP-70, the resulting ZAP(Y319-->F) mutant failed to reconstitute TCR-dependent Ca2+ mobilization, Ras activation, CD69 expression and NFAT-dependent transcription in ZAP-70-deficient Jurkat cells. These defects were correlated with reduced tyrosine phosphorylation of phospholipase C (PLC)-gamma1 and the LAT adapter protein in the ZAP(Y319-->F)-expressing cells. On the other hand, ZAP(Y319-->F)-expressing cells displayed normal increases in SLP-76 phosphorylation and ERK activation during TCR stimulation. Phosphorylation of Tyr319 promoted the association of ZAP-70 with the SH2 domains of two key signaling molecules, Lck and PLC-gamma1. These studies suggest that Tyr319 phosphorylation is required for the assembly of a ZAP-70-containing signaling complex that leads to the activation of the PLC-gamma1- and Ras-dependent signaling cascades in antigen-stimulated T cells.

The adaptor molecule LAT (linker for activation of T cells) is a palmitoylated integral membrane protein that localizes to the glycolipid-enriched microdomains in the plasma membrane. Upon TCR engagement, LAT becomes phosphorylated on multiple tyrosine residues and then binds several critical signaling molecules. Here, we describe the generation and characterization of a LAT-deficient cell line. Using this cell line, we demonstrate that LAT is required for TCR-mediated Ca2+ mobilization and optimal tyrosine phosphorylation of phospholipase C-gamma1, Vav and SLP-76. LAT is also required for Erk activation, CD69 up-regulation, and AP- and NFAT-mediated gene transcription. We also demonstrate, by reconstituting this cell line with LAT mutants, that the LAT transmembrane domain and palmitoylation at Cys26, but not Cys29, are required for LAT function and TCR signaling. These studies provide further evidence for the crucial role of the LAT molecule, and demonstrate the use of a LAT-deficient cell line for the analysis of LAT structure and function.

SLP-76 is an adapter protein expressed in T cells and myeloid cells that is a substrate for ZAP-70 and Syk. SLP-76-deficient mice exhibit a profound block in T-cell development. We found that although SLP-76 is expressed in mouse mast cells, SLP-76(-/-) mice have normal numbers of mast cells in their skin and bronchi. SLP-76(-/-) mice are resistant to IgE-mediated passive anaphylaxis. SLP-76(-/-) mice sensitized with IgE anti-dinitrophenyl (DNP) and then challenged with DNP-HSA developed only mild and transient tachycardia, failed to increase their plasma histamine level, and all survived the antigen challenge. Bone marrow-derived mast cells (BMMCs) from SLP76(-/-) mice failed to release beta-hexosaminidase and to secrete IL-6 after FcepsilonRI cross-linking. Tyrosine phosphorylation of phospholipase C-gamma1 (but not of Syk) and calcium mobilization in response to IgE cross-linking were reduced in SLP-76-deficient BMMCs. These results suggest that SLP-76 plays an important role in FcepsilonRI-mediated signaling in mast cells.

Stimulation of mature T cells with agonist ligands of the Ag receptor (TCR) causes rapid phosphorylation of tyrosine-based activation motifs in the intracellular portion of TCR-zeta and CD3 and activation of several intracellular signaling cascades. Coordinate activation of these pathways is dependent on Lck- and ZAP-70-mediated tyrosine phosphorylation of a 36-kDa linker for activation of T cells and subsequent recruitment of phospholipase C-gamma1, Grb2-SOS, and SLP-76-vav. Here, we show that TCR partial agonist ligands can selectively activate one of these pathways, the Ras-mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway, by inducing recruitment of Grb2-SOS complexes to incompletely phosphorylated p21 phospho-TCR-zeta. This bypasses the need for activation of Lck and ZAP-70, and for phosphorylation of the linker for activation of T cells to activate Ras. We propose a general model in which differential recruitment of activating complexes away from transmembrane linker proteins may determine selective activation of a given signaling pathway.

Activation of lymphocytes through their antigen receptors leads to mobilization of intracellular Ca(2+) ions. This process requires expression of SLP adaptors and involves phosphorylation of phospholipase C-gamma isoforms by the Tec-related protein tyrosine kinase Btk in B cells and Itk in T cells. The SH2 domain of Btk and Itk is essential for phospholipase C-gamma phosphorylation and mutations in this domain lead to the X-linked agammaglobulinemia immuno deficiency in humans. Here we show that, in contrast to SH2 domains from other signaling proteins, the Btk and Itk SH2 domains exhibit a restricted binding specificity. They bind selectively to tyrosine-phosphorylated SLP-65 and SLP-76 in activated B and T cells, respectively. Our findings suggest that Btk/Itk and phospholipase C-gamma both bind via their SH2 domain to phosphorylated SLP adaptors, and that this association is required for the activation of phospholipase C-gamma.
