The Golgi-localized, Gamma-ear-containing, Arf-binding (GGA) proteins are monomeric clathrin adaptors that mediate the sorting of transmembrane cargo at the trans-Golgi network and endosomes. Here we report that one of these proteins,
GGA3
, becomes transiently phosphorylated upon activation of the
epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor
. This phosphorylation takes place on a previously unrecognized site in the "hinge" segment of the protein, S368, and is strictly dependent on the constitutive phosphorylation of another site, S372. The EGF-induced phosphorylation of S368 does not require internalization of the EGF receptor or association of
GGA3
with membranes. This phosphorylation can be blocked by inhibitors of both the mitogen-activated protein kinase and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase pathways that function downstream of the activated EGF receptor. Phosphorylation of
GGA3
on S368 causes an increase in the hydrodynamic radius of the protein, indicating a transition to a more asymmetric shape. Mutation of S368 and S372 to a phosphomimic aspartate residue decreases the association of
GGA3
with membranes. These observations indicate that EGF signaling elicits phosphorylation events that regulate the association of
GGA3
with organellar membranes.
