A membrane-associated form of Raf-1 in v-Ras transformed NIH 3T3 cells can be inactivated by protein phosphatases regulated by GTP. Herein, a distinct protein-tyrosine phosphatase (PTPase) in membrane preparations from v-Ras transformed NIH 3T3 cells was found to be activated by guanyl-5'-yl imidodiphosphate (GMPPNP) and was identified as an effector for pertussis toxin (PTx)-sensitive G-protein alpha subunits. PTPase activation was blocked by prior treatment of cells with PTx. PTPase activation by GTP, but not GMPPNP, was transient. A GMPPNP-stimulated PTPase (PTPase-G) co-purified with Galphai/o subunits during Superose 6 and Mono Q chromatography. PTPase-G activity in Superose 6 fractions from GDP-treated membranes was reconstituted by activated Galphai/o, but not G beta gamma, subunits. PTPase-G may contribute to GMPPNP-stimulated inactivation of Raf-1 in v-Ras cell membranes because Raf-1 inactivation was PTx-sensitive and PTPase-G inactivated exogenous Raf-1.

SH-PTP1 is a protein-tyrosine phosphatase preferentially expressed in hematopoietic cells and bearing two SH2 (src homology-2) domains. In the human megakaryocytic cell line Dami, lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) promoted a rapid increase in SH-PTP1 phosphorylation on both serine and tyrosine residues. Only tyrosine phosphorylation was significantly inhibited by pertussis toxin and by the protein kinase C inhibitor GF109203X. Moreover, SH-PTP1 was phosphorylated upon challenge with other agonists acting via G-protein-coupled receptors such as alpha-thrombin, epinephrine, and ADP, whereas the closely related protein-tyrosine phosphatase SH-PTP2 failed to share such a regulation in Dami cells. We developed an in vitro assay that reproduced LPA-dependent phosphorylation of SH-PTP1 in a cell-free system. The fusion protein glutathione S-transferase-beta-adrenergic receptor kinase 1-(495-689) or the transducin subunit Galphat-GDP, which act as specific antagonists of Gbetagamma, inhibited SH-PTP1 phosphorylation. Moreover, purified transducin Gbetagamma subunits mimicked the effect of LPA. Finally, stable expression of beta-adrenergic receptor kinase 1-(495-689) in Dami cells resulted in the inhibition of SH-PTP1 as a specific target of protein kinases linked to G-protein-coupled receptors via Gbetagamma subunits.

Proteinase-activated receptor-2 (PAR2), a new member of family of the G protein-coupled receptors, is activated by proteolytic cleavage of its extracellular amino terminus, a mechanism similar to that used by the thrombin receptor. It has been suggested that PAR2 has a potential role in the late phases of the acute inflammatory response and in tissue repair and/or skin-related disorders. Here we demonstrate that the agonist peptide (SLIGRL) stimulated c-fos-mediated mitogenic activation and tyrosine phosphorylation of cellular proteins. One of the tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins was identified as an Src homology-2 domain-containing protein-tyrosine phosphatase, SHP2. The stimulatory effect of the agonist peptide on early gene transcription was markedly blocked by pertussis toxin treatment whereas the induced tyrosine phosphorylation of SHP2 was completely abolished by the drug. More importantly, while expression of wild-type SHP2 enhanced the agonist-stimulatory mitogenic activity, overexpression of a catalytically inactive mutant of SHP2 strongly suppressed the stimulatory effect of the agonist peptide on both early gene transcription and DNA synthesis. These results suggest that SHP2 acts as a positive regulator linked to the PAR2-mediated mitogenic pathway coupled to a pertussis toxin-sensitive heterotrimeric G protein. Demonstration of SHP2 as a positive mediator in a G protein-coupled, receptor-mediated signaling adds to our understanding of the function of both SHP2 and PAR2 in the signaling pathway.

Activation of the somatostatin receptor sst2, a member of the Gi protein-coupled receptor family, results in the stimulation of a protein-tyrosine phosphatase activity involved in the sst2-mediated growth inhibitory signal. Here, we report that SHP-1, a cytoplasmic protein-tyrosine phosphatase containing two Src homology 2 domains constitutively associated with sst2 as evidence by coprecipitation of SHP-1 protein with sst2, in Chinese hamster ovary cells coexpressing sst2 and SHP-1. Activation of sst2 by somatostatin resulted in a rapid dissociation of SHP-1 from sst2 accompanied by an increase of SHP-1 activity. SHP-1 was phosphorylated on tyrosine in control cells and somatostatin induced a rapid and transient dephosphorylation on tyrosine residues of the enzyme. Stimulation of SHP-1 activity by somatostatin was abolished by pertussis toxin pretreatment of cells. Gialpha3 was specifically immunoprecipitated by anti-sst2 and anti-SHP-1 antibodies, and somatostatin induced a rapid dissociation of Gialpha3 from sst2, suggesting that Gialpha3 may be involved in the sst2.SHP-1 complexes. Finally, somatostatin inhibited the proliferation of cells coexpressing sst2 and SHP-1, and this effect was suppressed in cells coexpressing sst2 and the catalytic inactive SHP-1 (C453S mutant). Our data identify SHP-1 as the tyrosine phosphatase associated with sst2 and demonstrate that this enzyme may be an initial key transducer of the antimitogenic signaling mediated by sst2.

SHP-2, an SH2 domain-containing protein-tyrosine phosphatase, plays an important role in receptor tyrosine kinase-regulated cell proliferation and differentiation. Little is known about the activation mechanisms and the participation of SHP-2 in the activity of G protein-coupled receptors lacking intrinsic tyrosine kinase activity. We show that the activity of SHP-2 (but not SHP-1) is specifically stimulated by the selective alpha2A-adrenergic receptor agonist UK14304 and by lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells. UK14304 and LPA promote the tyrosine phosphorylation of SHP-2 and its association with Grb2. The agonist-induced direct interaction of Grb2 with SHP-2 is mediated by the SH2 domain of Grb2 and the tyrosine phosphorylation of SHP-2. Rapid activation of Src family kinase by UK14304 preceded the SHP-2 activation. Among the Src family members (Src, Fyn, Lck, Yes, and Lyn) present in MDCK cells, Fyn was the only one specifically associated with SHP-2, and the physical interaction between them, which requires the Src family kinase activity, was increased in response to the agonists. Pertussis toxin, PP1 (a selective Src family kinase inhibitor), or overexpression of a catalytically inactive mutant of Fyn blocked the UK14304- or LPA-stimulated activity of SHP-2, SHP-2 tyrosine phosphorylation, and SHP-2 association with Grb2. Therefore, we have demonstrated for the first time that the activation of SHP-2 by these Gi protein-coupled receptors requires Fyn kinase and that there is a specific physical interaction of Fyn kinase with SHP-2 in MDCK cells.

Suppression of the expression of the heterotrimeric G-protein Galpha(i2) in vivo has been shown to provoke insulin resistance, whereas enhanced insulin signaling is observed when Galpha(i2) is overexpressed in vivo. The basis for Galpha(i2) regulation of insulin signaling was explored in transgenic mice with targeted expression of the GTPase-deficient, constitutively active Q205L Galpha(i2) in fat and skeletal muscle. Phosphorylation of insulin receptor and IRS-1 in response to insulin challenge in vivo was markedly amplified in fat and skeletal muscle expressing Q205L Galpha(i2). The expression and activity of the protein-tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B), but not protein-tyrosine phosphatases SHP-1, SHP-2, and LAR, were constitutively decreased in tissues expressing the Q205L Galpha(i2), providing a direct linkage between insulin signaling and Galpha(i2). The loss of PTP1B expression may explain, in part, the loss of PTP1B activity in the iQ205L transgenic mice. Activation of Galpha(i2) in mouse adipocytes with lysophosphatidic acid was shown to decrease PTP1B activity, whereas pertussis toxin inactivates Galpha(i2), blocks lysophosphatidic acid-stimulated inhibition of PTP1B activity, and blocks tonic suppression of PTP1B activity by Galpha(i2). Elevation of intracellular cAMP in fat cells is shown to increase PTP1B activity, whereas either depression of cAMP levels or direct activation of Galpha(i2) suppresses PTP1B. These data provide the first molecular basis for the interplay between Galpha(i2) and insulin signaling, i.e. activation of Galpha(i2) can suppress both the expression and activity of PTP1B in insulin-sensitive tissues.
