Abstract
A novel series of ethylidenehydrazineylthiazol-4(5H)-ones were synthesized using various eco-friendly one-pot multicomponent synthetic techniques. The anticancer activity of compounds (4a-m) was tested against 11 cancer cell lines. While the IC50 of all compounds was evaluated against the most sensitive cell lines (MDA-MB-468 and FaDu). Our SAR study pinpointed that compound 4a, having a phenyl substituent, exhibited a significant growth inhibition % against all cancer cell lines. The frontier anticancer candidates against the MDA-MB-468 were also examined against the wild EGFR (EGFR-WT) and mutant EGFR (EGFR-T790M) receptors. Most of the synthesized compounds exhibited a higher inhibitory potential against EGFR-T790M than the wild type of EGFR. Remarkably, compound 4k exhibited the highest inhibitory activity against both EGFR-WT and EGFR-T790M with IC50 values (0.051 and 0.021 µM), respectively. The pro-apoptotic protein markers (p53, BAX, caspase 3, caspase 6, caspase 8, and caspase 9) and the anti-apoptotic key marker (BCL-2) were also measured to propose a mechanism of action for the compound 4k as an apoptotic inducer for MDA-MB-468. Investigation of the cell cycle arrest potential of compound 4k was also conducted on MDA-MB-468 cancer cells. We also evaluated the inhibitory activities of compounds (4a-m) against both EGFR-WT and EGFR-T790M using two different molecular docking processes.

Abstract
ERBB4 (HER4) is a member of the ERBB family of receptor tyrosine kinases, a family that includes the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR/ERBB1/HER1), ERBB2 (Neu/HER2), and ERBB3 (HER3). EGFR and ERBB2 are oncoproteins and validated targets for therapeutic intervention in a variety of solid tumors. In contrast, the role that ERBB4 plays in human malignancies is ambiguous. Thus, here we review the literature regarding ERBB4 function in human malignancies. We review the mechanisms of ERBB4 signaling with an emphasis on mechanisms of signaling specificity. In the context of this signaling specificity, we discuss the hypothesis that ERBB4 appears to function as a tumor suppressor protein and as an oncoprotein. Next, we review the literature that describes the role of ERBB4 in tumors of the bladder, liver, prostate, brain, colon, stomach, lung, bone, ovary, thyroid, hematopoietic tissues, pancreas, breast, skin, head, and neck. Whenever possible, we discuss the possibility that ERBB4 mutants function as biomarkers in these tumors. Finally, we discuss the potential roles of ERBB4 mutants in the staging of human tumors and how ERBB4 function may dictate the treatment of human tumors. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: This articles reviews ERBB4 function in the context of the mechanistic model that ERBB4 homodimers function as tumor suppressors, whereas ERBB4-EGFR or ERBB4-ERBB2 heterodimers act as oncogenes. Thus, this review serves as a mechanistic framework for clinicians and scientists to consider the role of ERBB4 and ERBB4 mutants in staging and treating human tumors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND New potential biological targets prediction through inverse molecular docking technique is an another smart strategy to forecast the possibility of compounds being biologically active against various target receptors. OBJECTIVES In this case of designed study, we screened our recently obtained novel acetylinic steroidal biotransformed products [(1) 8-β-methyl-14-α-hydroxy∆4tibolone (2) 9-α-Hydroxy∆4 tibolone (3) 8-β-methyl-11-β-hydroxy∆4tibolone (4) 6-β-hydroxy∆4tibolone, (5) 6-β-9-α-dihydroxy∆4tibolone (6) 7-β-hydroxy∆4tibolone) ] from fungi Cunninghemella Blakesleana to predict their possible biological targets and profiling of ADME properties. METHOD The prediction of pharmacokinetics properties membrane permeability as well as bioavailability radar properties were carried out by using Swiss target prediction, and Swiss ADME tools, respectively these metabolites were also subjected to predict the possible mechanism of action along with associated biological network pathways by using Reactome data-base. RESULTS All the six screened compounds possess excellent drug ability criteria, and exhibited exceptionally excellent non inhibitory potential against all five isozymes of CYP450 enzyme complex, including (CYP1A2, CYP2C19, CYP2C9, CYP2D6, and CYP3A4) respectively. All the screened compounds are lying within the acceptable pink zone of bioavailability radar and showing excellent descriptive properties. Compounds [1-4 & 6] are showing high BBB (Blood Brain Barrier) permeation, while compound 5 is exhibiting high HIA (Human Intestinal Absorption) property of (Egan Egg). CONCLUSION In conclusion, the results of this study smartly reveals that in-silico based studies are considered to provide robustness towards a rational drug designing and development approach, therefore in this way it helps to avoid the possibility of failure of drug candidates in the later experimental stages of drug development phases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The epidermal growth factor receptor family consists of four members, ErbB1 (epidermal growth factor receptor-1), ErbB2, ErbB3, and ErbB4, which all have been found to play important roles in tumor development. ErbB4 appears to be unique among these receptors, because it is the only member with growth inhibiting properties. ErbB4 plays well-defined roles in normal tissue development, in particular the heart, the nervous system, and the mammary gland system. In recent years, information on the role of ErbB4 in a number of tumors has emerged and its general direction points towards a tumor suppressor role for ErbB4. However, there are some controversies and conflicting data, warranting a review on this topic. CONCLUSIONS Here, we discuss the role of ErbB4 in normal physiology and in breast, lung, colorectal, gastric, pancreatic, prostate, bladder, and brain cancers, as well as in hepatocellular carcinoma, cholangiocarcinoma, and melanoma. Understanding the role of ErbB4 in cancer is not only important for the treatment of tumors, but also for the treatment of other disorders in which ErbB4 plays a major role, e.g. cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is among the most lethal and prevalent malignancies in the world and was responsible for nearly 881,000 cancer-related deaths in 2018. Surgery and chemotherapy have long been the first choices for cancer patients. However, the prognosis of CRC has never been satisfying, especially for patients with metastatic lesions. Targeted therapy is a new optional approach that has successfully prolonged overall survival for CRC patients. Following successes with the anti-EGFR (epidermal growth factor receptor) agent cetuximab and the anti-angiogenesis agent bevacizumab, new agents blocking different critical pathways as well as immune checkpoints are emerging at an unprecedented rate. Guidelines worldwide are currently updating the recommended targeted drugs on the basis of the increasing number of high-quality clinical trials. This review provides an overview of existing CRC-targeted agents and their underlying mechanisms, as well as a discussion of their limitations and future trends.

Abstract
Protein-tyrosine kinases transmit signals by phosphorylating their substrates in diverse cellular events. The receptor-type tyrosine kinase ErbB4, a member of the epidermal growth factor receptor subfamily, is activated and proteolytically cleaved upon ligand stimulation, and the cleaved ErbB4 intracellular domain (4ICD) is released into the cytoplasm and the nucleus. We previously showed that generation of nuclear 4ICD by neuregulin-1 (NRG-1) stimulation enhances the levels of trimethylation of histone H3 at lysine 9 (H3K9me3). However, it remains unclear how nuclear 4ICD enhances H3K9me3 levels. Here we show that the histone H3K9 methyltransferase SUV39H1 associates with NRG-1/ErbB4-mediated H3K9me3. Knockdown of SUV39H1 blocked NRG-1-mediated enhancement of the levels of H3K9me3. Nuclear 4ICD was found to phosphorylate SUV39H1 primarily at Tyr-297, -303, and -308 that are conserved among humans, mice, and flies. Furthermore, knockdown-rescue experiments showed that the unphosphorylatable SUV39H1 mutant (3 YF) was incapable of enhancing the levels of H3K9me3 upon NRG-1 stimulation. These results suggest that nuclear ErbB4 enhances H3K9me3 levels through tyrosine phosphorylation of SUV39H1 in NRG-1/ErbB4 signal-mediated chromatin remodeling.

Desuppression of TGF-β signaling via nuclear c-Abl-mediated phosphorylation of TIF1γ/TRIM33 at Tyr-524, -610, and -1048. Oncogene 2018; 38:637-655.

Abstract
Protein-tyrosine kinases regulate a broad range of intracellular processes occurring primarily just beneath the plasma membrane. With the greatest care to prevent dephosphorylation, we have shown that nuclear tyrosine phosphorylation regulates global chromatin structural states. However, the roles for tyrosine phosphorylation in the nucleus are poorly understood. Here we identify transcriptional intermediary factor 1-γ (TIF1γ/TRIM33/Ectodermin), which suppresses transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) signaling through the association with Smad2/3 transcription factor, as a new nuclear substrate of c-Abl tyrosine kinase. Replacement of the three tyrosine residues Tyr-524, -610, and -1048 with phenylalanine (3YF) inhibits c-Abl-mediated phosphorylation of TIF1γ and enhances TIF1γ's association with Smad3. Importantly, knockdown-rescue experiments show that 3YF strengthens TIF1γ's ability to suppress TGF-β signaling. Intriguingly, activation of c-Abl by epidermal growth factor (EGF) induces desuppression of TGF-β signaling via enhancing the tyrosine phosphorylation level of TIF1γ. TGF-β together with EGF synergistically provokes desuppressive responses of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition through tyrosine phosphorylation of TIF1γ. These results suggest that nuclear c-Abl-mediated tyrosine phosphorylation of TIF1γ has a desuppressive role in TGF-β-Smad2/3 signaling.

Abstract
Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) is a receptor-type tyrosine kinase that promotes cell growth upon stimulation with ligands such as midkine and pleiotrophin. Recently, a truncated isoform of ALK was identified in a variety of tumors. This isoform is expressed from a novel ALK transcript initiated from a de novo alternative transcription initiation (ATI) site in ALK intron 19 (referred to as ALKATI). ALKATI, which consists of only the intracellular kinase domain, localizes to the nucleus as well as the cytoplasm. However, its nuclear role is unknown. In this study, we determined that ALKATI promoted chromatin structural changes in the nucleus in a kinase activity-dependent manner. We found that expression of ALKATI increased the level of the heterochromatin marker Lys9 tri-methylated histone H3. In addition, we demonstrated that ALKATI phosphorylated the nuclear protein A-kinase anchoring protein 8 (AKAP8) and altered its subcellular localization from the insoluble fraction to the soluble fraction. These results suggest that ALKATI induces chromatin structural changes and heterochromatinization through phosphorylation of AKAP8 in the nucleus.

Abstract
Prolyl isomerases are defined by a catalytic domain that facilitates the cis–trans interconversion of proline residues. In most cases, additional domains in these enzymes add important biological function, including recruitment to a set of protein substrates. Here, we report that the N-terminal basic tilted helix bundle (BTHB) domain of the human prolyl isomerase FKBP25 confers specific binding to double-stranded RNA (dsRNA). This binding is selective over DNA as well as single-stranded oligonucleotides. We find that FKBP25 RNA-association is required for its nucleolar localization and for the vast majority of its protein interactions, including those with 60S pre-ribosome and early ribosome biogenesis factors. An independent mobility of the BTHB and FKBP catalytic domains supports a model by which the N-terminus of FKBP25 is anchored to regions of dsRNA, whereas the FKBP domain is free to interact with neighboring proteins. Apart from the identification of the BTHB as a new dsRNA-binding module, this domain adds to the growing list of auxiliary functions used by prolyl isomerases to define their primary cellular targets.

Abstract
Src-family tyrosine kinases are widely expressed in many cell types and participate in a variety of signal transduction pathways. Despite the significance of Src in suppression of apoptosis, its mechanism remains poorly understood. Here we show that Src acts as an effector for Ku70-dependent suppression of apoptosis. Inhibition of endogenous Src activity promotes UV-induced apoptosis, which is impaired by Ku70 knockdown. Src phosphorylates Ku70 at Tyr-530, being close to the possible acetylation sites involved in promotion of apoptosis. Src-mediated phosphorylation of Ku70 at Tyr-530 decreases acetylation of Ku70, whereas Src inhibition augments acetylation of Ku70. Importantly, knockdown-rescue experiments with stable Ku70 knockdown cells show that the nonphosphorylatable Y530F mutant of Ku70 reduces the ability of Ku70 to suppress apoptosis accompanied by augmentation of Ku70 acetylation. Our results reveal that Src plays a protective role against hyperactive apoptotic cell death by reducing apoptotic susceptibility through phosphorylation of Ku70 at Tyr-530.

Abstract
Hepatoblastoma (HBL), the most common childhood liver cancer is cured with surgical resection after chemotherapy or with liver transplantation if local invasion and multifocality preclude resection. However, variable survival rates of 60-80% and debilitating chemotherapy sequelae argue for more informed treatment selection, which is not possible by grading the Wnt-β-catenin over activity present in most HBL tumors. A hypothesis-generating whole transcriptome analysis shows that HBL tumors removed at transplantation are enriched most for cancer signaling pathways which depend predominantly on epidermal growth factor (EGF) signaling, and to a lesser extent, on aberrant Wnt-β-catenin signaling. We therefore evaluated whether EGFR, ASAP1, ERBB2 and ERBB4, which signal downstream after ligation of EGF, and which show aberrant expression in several other invasive cancers, would also predict HBL tumor invasiveness. Immunohistochemistry of HBL tumors (n = 60), which are histologically heterogeneous, shows that compared with well-differentiated fetal cells, less differentiated embryonal and undifferentiated small cells (SCU) progressively lose EGFR and ASAP1 expression. This trend is exaggerated in unresectable, locally invasive or metastatic tumors, in which embryonal tumor cells are EGFR-negative, while SCU cells are EGFR-negative and ASAP1-negative. Loss of EGFR-ASAP1 signaling characterizes undifferentiated and invasive HBL. EGFR-expressing HBL tumors present novel therapeutic targeting opportunities.

Abstract
Krüppel-associated box-containing zinc finger proteins (KRAB-ZFPs) regulate a wide range of cellular processes. KRAB-ZFPs have a KRAB domain, which binds to transcriptional corepressors, and a zinc finger domain, which binds to DNA to activate or repress gene transcription. Here, we characterize ZNF777, a member of KRAB-ZFPs. We show that ZNF777 localizes to the nucleus and inducible overexpression of ZNF777 inhibits cell proliferation in a manner dependent on its zinc finger domain but independent of its KRAB domain. Intriguingly, ZNF777 overexpression drastically inhibits cell proliferation at low cell density but slightly inhibits cell proliferation at high cell density. Furthermore, ZNF777 overexpression decreases the mRNA level of FAM129A irrespective of cell density. Importantly, the protein level of FAM129A strongly decreases at low cell density, but at high cell density the protein level of FAM129A does not decrease to that observed at low cell density. ZNF777-mediated inhibition of cell proliferation is attenuated by overexpression of FAM129A at low cell density. Furthermore, ZNF777-mediated down-regulation of FAM129A induces moderate levels of the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p21. These results suggest that ZNF777 overexpression inhibits cell proliferation at low cell density and that p21 induction by ZNF777-mediated down-regulation of FAM129A plays a role in inhibition of cell proliferation.

Abstract
Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is characterized by premature alveolar developmental arrest. Antenatal exposure to inflammation inhibits lung morphogenesis, thus increasing the risk of developing BPD. Alveolar myofibroblasts are thought to migrate into the septal tips and elongate secondary septa during alveolarization. Here we found lipopolysaccharide (LPS) disrupted the directional migration of myofibroblasts and increased actin stress fiber expression and focal adhesion formation. In addition, COOH-terminal Src kinase (Csk) activity was downregulated in myofibroblasts treated with LPS, while activation of Src or epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) was upregulated by LPS treatment. Specifically, decreased Csk activity and increased activation of Src or EGFR was also observed in primary myofibroblasts isolated from newborn rat lungs with intra-amniotic LPS exposure, a model for BPD. Further investigation revealed that EGFR was involved in cell migration impairment induced by LPS, and Src inhibition blocked LPS-induced activation of EGFR or cell migration impairment. Csk silencing also resulted in EGFR activation and cell migration impairment. Besides, we found the effect of EGFR on myofibroblast migration was mediated through RhoA activation. EGFR inhibition alleviated the abnormal localization of myofibroblasts and improved alveolar development in antenatal LPS-treated rats. Taken together, our data suggest that the Csk/Src/EGFR signaling pathway is critically involved in regulating directional migration of myofibroblasts and may contribute to arrested alveolar development in BPD.

Abstract
Non-small cell lung cancer is the predominant type of lung cancer, resulting in high mortality worldwide. Digoxin, a cardiac glycoside, has recently been suggested to be a novel chemotherapeutic agent. Src is an oncogene that plays an important role in cancer progression and is therefore a potential target for cancer therapy. Here, we investigated whether digoxin could suppress lung cancer progression through the inhibition of Src activity. The effects of digoxin on lung cancer cell functions were investigated using colony formation, migration and invasion assays. Western blotting and qPCR assays were used to analyze the mRNA and protein expression levels of Src and its downstream proteins, and a cell viability assay was used to measure cellular cytotoxicity effects. The results of the cell function assays revealed that digoxin inhibited the proliferation, invasion, migration, and colony formation of A549 lung cancer cells. Similar effects of digoxin were also observed in other lung cancer cell lines. Furthermore, we found that digoxin significantly suppressed Src activity and its protein expression in a dose- and time-dependent manner as well as reduced EGFR and STAT3 activity. Our data suggest that digoxin is a potential anticancer agent that may suppress lung cancer progression through inhibiting Src and the activity of related proteins.

Abstract
Protein-tyrosine phosphorylation regulates a wide variety of cellular processes at the plasma membrane. Recently, we showed that nuclear tyrosine kinases induce global nuclear structure changes, which we called chromatin structural changes. However, the mechanisms are not fully understood. In this study we identify protein kinase A anchoring protein 8 (AKAP8/AKAP95), which associates with chromatin and the nuclear matrix, as a nuclear tyrosine-phosphorylated protein. Tyrosine phosphorylation of AKAP8 is induced by several tyrosine kinases, such as Src, Fyn, and c-Abl but not Syk. Nucleus-targeted Lyn and c-Src strongly dissociate AKAP8 from chromatin and the nuclear matrix in a kinase activity-dependent manner. The levels of tyrosine phosphorylation of AKAP8 are decreased by substitution of multiple tyrosine residues on AKAP8 into phenylalanine. Importantly, the phenylalanine mutations of AKAP8 inhibit its dissociation from nuclear structures, suggesting that the association/dissociation of AKAP8 with/from nuclear structures is regulated by its tyrosine phosphorylation. Furthermore, the phenylalanine mutations of AKAP8 suppress the levels of nuclear tyrosine kinase-induced chromatin structural changes. In contrast, AKAP8 knockdown increases the levels of chromatin structural changes. Intriguingly, stimulation with hydrogen peroxide induces chromatin structural changes accompanied by the dissociation of AKAP8 from nuclear structures. These results suggest that AKAP8 is involved in the regulation of chromatin structural changes through nuclear tyrosine phosphorylation.

Abstract
c-Abl is a non-receptor-type tyrosine kinase that regulates various cellular events, including cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis, through phosphorylation of cytoplasmic and nuclear targets. Although we showed that c-Abl induces histone deacetylation, the molecular mechanisms of this phenomenon are largely unknown. Here, we analyzed the effect of c-Abl on the expression of histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1), because c-Abl was shown to be involved in maintenance of nuclear protein levels of HDAC1. Co-transfection of HDAC1 with c-Abl increased the levels of HDAC1 protein in a kinase activity-dependent manner without affecting its mRNA levels. Treatment with the proteasome inhibitor MG132 increased protein levels of HDAC1 in cells transfected with HDAC1 but not in cells co-transfected with HDAC1 and c-Abl. Among class I HDACs, knockdown of endogenous c-Abl preferentially suppressed endogenous protein levels of HDAC1, suggesting that c-Abl stabilizes HDAC1 protein by inhibiting its proteasomal degradation. Subcellular fractionation showed that the stabilization of HDAC1 by c-Abl occurred in the nucleus. Despite the fact that HDAC1 was phosphorylated by co-expression with c-Abl, stabilization of HDAC1 by c-Abl was not affected by mutations in its sites phosphorylated by c-Abl. Co-expression with HDAC1 and nuclear-targeted c-Abl did not affect HDAC1 stabilization. Therefore, these results suggest that c-Abl induces HDAC1 stabilization possibly through phosphorylation of a cytoplasmic target that is involved in proteasomal degradation of HDAC1.

Abstract
Activating transcription factor 2 (ATF2) and its homolog ATF7 are phosphorylated at Thr-69/Thr-71 and at Thr-51/Thr-53, respectively, by stress-activated MAPKs regulating their transcriptional functions in G1 and S phases. However, little is known about the role of ATF2 and ATF7 in G2/M phase. Here, we show that Cdk1-cyclin B1 phosphorylates ATF2 at Thr-69/Thr-71 and ATF7 at Thr-51/Thr-53 from early prophase to anaphase in the absence of any stress stimulation. Knockdown of ATF2 or ATF7 decreases the rate of cell proliferation and the number of cells in M-phase. In particular, the knockdown of ATF7 severely inhibits cell proliferation and G2/M progression. The inducible expression of a mitotically nonphosphorylatable version of ATF7 inhibits G2/M progression despite the presence of endogenous ATF7. We also show that mitotic phosphorylation of ATF7 promotes the activation of Aurora kinases, which are key enzymes for early mitotic events. These results suggest that the Cdk1-mediated phosphorylation of ATF7 facilitates G2/M progression, at least in part, by enabling Aurora signaling.

Abstract
Four transmembrane tyrosine kinases constitute the ErbB protein family: epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) or ErbB1, ErbB2, ErbB3, and ErbB4. In general, the structure and mechanism of the activation of these members are similar. However, significant differences in homologous desensitization are known between EGFR and ErbB4. Desensitization of ligand-occupied EGFR occurs by endocytosis, while that of ErbB4 occurs by selective cleavage at the cell surface. Because ErbB4 is abundantly expressed in neurons from fetal to adult brains, elucidation of the desensitization mechanism is important to understand neuronal development and synaptic functions. Recently, it has become clear that heterologous desensitization of EGFR and ErbB4 are induced by endocytosis and cleavage, respectively, similar to homologous desensitization. It has been reported that heterologous desensitization of EGFR is induced by serine phosphorylation of EGFR via the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38 MAP kinase) pathway in various cell lines, including alveolar epithelial cells. In contrast, the protein kinase C pathway is involved in ErbB4 cleavage. In this review, we will describe recent advances in the desensitization mechanisms of EGFR and ErbB4, mainly in alveolar epithelial cells and hypothalamic neurons, respectively.

Abstract
Mimosine is an effective cell synchronization reagent used for arresting cells in late G1 phase. However, the mechanism underlying mimosine-induced G1 cell cycle arrest remains unclear. Using highly synchronous cell populations, we show here that mimosine blocks S phase entry through ATM activation. HeLa S3 cells are exposed to thymidine for 15 h, released for 9 h by washing out the thymidine, and subsequently treated with 1 mM mimosine for a further 15 h (thymidine → mimosine). In contrast to thymidine-induced S phase arrest, mimosine treatment synchronizes >90% of cells at the G1-S phase boundary by inhibiting the transition of the prereplication complex to the preinitiation complex. Mimosine treatment activates ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM)/ataxia telangiectasia and Rad3-related (ATR)-mediated checkpoint signaling without inducing DNA damage. Inhibition of ATM activity is found to induce mimosine-arrested cells to enter S phase. In addition, ATM activation by mimosine treatment is mediated by reactive oxygen species (ROS). These results suggest that, upon mimosine treatment, ATM blocks S phase entry in response to ROS, which prevents replication fork stalling-induced DNA damage.

Abstract
Protein tyrosine phosphorylation regulates a wide range of cellular processes at the plasma membrane. Recently, we showed that nuclear tyrosine phosphorylation by Src family kinases (SFKs) induces chromatin structural changes. In this study, we identify KRAB-associated protein 1 (KAP1/TIF1β/TRIM28), a component of heterochromatin, as a nuclear tyrosine-phosphorylated protein. Tyrosine phosphorylation of KAP1 is induced by several tyrosine kinases, such as Src, Lyn, Abl, and Brk. Among SFKs, Src strongly induces tyrosine phosphorylation of KAP1. Nucleus-targeted Lyn potentiates tyrosine phosphorylation of KAP1 compared with intact Lyn, but neither intact Fyn nor nucleus-targeted Fyn phosphorylates KAP1. Substitution of the three tyrosine residues Tyr-449/Tyr-458/Tyr-517, located close to the HP1 binding-motif, into phenylalanine ablates tyrosine phosphorylation of KAP1. Immunostaining and chromatin fractionation show that Src and Lyn decrease the association of KAP1 with heterochromatin in a kinase activity-dependent manner. KAP1 knockdown impairs the association of HP1α with heterochromatin, because HP1α associates with KAP1 in heterochromatin. Intriguingly, tyrosine phosphorylation of KAP1 decreases the association of HP1α with heterochromatin, which is inhibited by replacement of endogenous KAP1 with its phenylalanine mutant (KAP1-Y449F/Y458F/Y517F, KAP1-3YF). In DNA damage, KAP1-3YF repressed transcription of p21. These results suggest that nucleus-localized tyrosine kinases, including SFKs, phosphorylate KAP1 at Tyr-449/Tyr-458/Tyr-517 and inhibit the association of KAP1 and HP1α with heterochromatin.
