"Non-Essential" Proteins of HSV-1 with Essential Roles In Vivo: A Comprehensive Review. Viruses 2020; 13:v13010017. [PMID: 33374862 PMCID: PMC7824580 DOI: 10.3390/v13010017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/24/2020] [Revised: 12/17/2020] [Accepted: 12/18/2020] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
Viruses encode for structural proteins that participate in virion formation and include capsid and envelope proteins. In addition, viruses encode for an array of non-structural accessory proteins important for replication, spread, and immune evasion in the host and are often linked to virus pathogenesis. Most virus accessory proteins are non-essential for growth in cell culture because of the simplicity of the infection barriers or because they have roles only during a state of the infection that does not exist in cell cultures (i.e., tissue-specific functions), or finally because host factors in cell culture can complement their absence. For these reasons, the study of most nonessential viral factors is more complex and requires development of suitable cell culture systems and in vivo models. Approximately half of the proteins encoded by the herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) genome have been classified as non-essential. These proteins have essential roles in vivo in counteracting antiviral responses, facilitating the spread of the virus from the sites of initial infection to the peripheral nervous system, where it establishes lifelong reservoirs, virus pathogenesis, and other regulatory roles during infection. Understanding the functions of the non-essential proteins of herpesviruses is important to understand mechanisms of viral pathogenesis but also to harness properties of these viruses for therapeutic purposes. Here, we have provided a comprehensive summary of the functions of HSV-1 non-essential proteins.

Abstract
B6.SJL-Ptprca Pepcb /Boy (CD45.1) mice have been used in hundreds of congenic competitive transplants, with the presumption that they differ from C57BL/6 mice only at the CD45 locus. In this study, we describe a point mutation in the natural cytotoxicity receptor 1 (Ncr1) locus fortuitously identified in the CD45.1 strain. This point mutation was mapped at the 40th nucleotide of the Ncr1 locus causing a single amino acid mutation from cysteine to arginine at position 14 from the start codon, resulting in loss of NCR1 expression. We found that these mice were more resistant to CMV due to a hyper innate IFN-γ response in the absence of NCR1. In contrast, loss of NCR1 increased susceptibility to influenza virus, a result that is consistent with the role of NCR1 in the recognition of influenza Ag, hemagglutinin. This work sheds light on potential confounding experimental interpretation when this congenic strain is used as a tool for tracking lymphocyte development.

Abstract
Previous studies have shown that HSV-1 infection of lymphocytes induces the tyrosine phosphorylation of several proteins that might correspond to viral or host proteins. VP11/12, a viral tegument protein, is the major HSV-induced tyrosine phosphorylated protein identified thus far. In this report, we demonstrated that the cellular adaptor proteins Dok-2 and Dok-1 are tyrosine phosphorylated upon HSV-1 infection. In addition, HSV-1 induced the selective degradation of Dok-2. Finally, we provide evidence that Dok-2 interacts with VP11/12, and that HSV-induced tyrosine phosphorylation and degradation of Dok-2 require VP11/12. Inactivation of either the Src Family Kinases binding motifs or the SHC binding motif of VP11/12 eliminated the interaction of Dok-2 with VP11/12. Elimination of the binding of Dok-2 to VP11/12 prevented Dok-2 phosphorylation and degradation. We propose that HSV-induced Dok phosphorylation and Dok-2 degradation is an immune evasion mechanism to inactivate T cells that might play an important role in HSV pathogenesis.

Abstract
Phosphorylated proteins provide insight into tumor etiology and are used as diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic markers of complex diseases. However, pre-analytic variations, such as freezing delay after biopsy acquisition, often occur in real hospital settings and potentially lead to inaccurate results. The objective of this work is to develop statistical methodology to assess the stability of phosphorylated proteins under short-time cold ischemia. We consider a hierarchical model to determine if phosphorylation abundance of a protein at a particular phosphorylation site remains constant or not during cold ischemia. When phosphorylation levels vary across time, we estimate the direction of the changes in each protein based on the maximum overall posterior probability and on the pairwise posterior probabilities, respectively. We analyze a dataset of ovarian tumor tissues that suffered cold-ischemia shock before the proteomic profiling. Gajadhar et al. (2015) applied independent clusterings for each patient because of the high heterogeneity across patients, while our proposed model shares information allowing conclusions for the entire sample population. Using the proposed model, 15 out of 32 proteins show significant changes during 1-hour cold ischemia. Through simulation studies, we conclude that our proposed methodology has a higher accuracy for detecting changes compared to an order restricted inference method. Our approach provides inference on the stability of these phosphorylated proteins, which is valuable when using these proteins as biomarkers for a disease.

Abstract
Diverse signals received by CD8+ T cells are integrated to achieve the required magnitude of cell expansion and the appropriate balance of effector/memory CD8+ T cell generation. Notably, the strength and nature of TCR signaling influence the differentiation and functional capacity of effector and memory CD8+ T cells. Dok-1 and Dok-2, the two members of the Dok family expressed in T cells, negatively regulate TCR signaling in vitro. However, the role of Dok proteins in modulating T cell function in vivo has not yet studied. We studied the function of Dok-1 and Dok-2 proteins in the regulation of the CD8+ T cell response to vaccinia virus infection. Comparison of responses to vaccinia virus expressing OVA peptide SIINFEKL by wild-type and Dok-1/2-/- CD8+ OT-I cells showed that the absence of Dok-1 and Dok-2 slightly reduced the magnitude of virus-specific effector CD8+ T cell expansion. This was not due to reduced proliferation or enhanced apoptosis of effector CD8+ T cells. Dok-1/2-deficient effector CD8+ T cells showed increased cell surface TCR expression following virus infection in vivo and increased expression of granzyme B and TNF upon stimulation with peptide Ag ex vivo. Finally, Dok-1/2-deficient effector CD8+ T had a severe defect in survival that resulted in impaired generation of memory CD8+ T cells. These results reveal the critical involvement of Dok-1 and Dok-2 in a negative-feedback loop that prevents overactivation of CD8+ T cells and promotes memory formation.

Abstract
Natural killer (NK) cells are involved in immune responses against tumors and microbes. NK-cell activation is regulated by intrinsic and extrinsic mechanisms that ensure NK tolerance and efficacy. Here, we show that the cytoplasmic signaling molecules Dok1 and Dok2 are tyrosine phosphorylated upon NK-cell activation. Overexpression of Dok proteins in human NK cells reduces cell activation induced by NK-cell-activating receptors. Dok1 and Dok2 gene ablation in mice induces an NK-cell maturation defect and leads to increased IFN-γ production induced by activating receptors. Taken together, these results reveal that Dok1 and Dok2 proteins are involved in an intrinsic negative feedback loop downstream of NK-cell-activating receptors in mouse and human.

Abstract
In T cells, two members of the Dok family, Dok-1 and Dok-2, are predominantly expressed. Recent evidence suggests that they play a negative role in T-cell signaling. In order to define whether Dok proteins regulate T-cell development, we have generated transgenic mice overexpressing Dok-1 in thymocytes and peripheral T cells. We show that overexpression of Dok-1 retards the transition from the CD4(-) CD8(-) to CD4(+) CD8(+) stage. Moreover, there is a specific expansion of PLZF-expressing Vγ1.1(+) Vδ6.3(+) T cells. This subset of γδ T cells acquires innate characteristics including rapid IL-4 production following stimulation and requiring SLAM-associated adaptor protein (SAP) for their development. Moreover, Dok-1 overexpression promotes the generation of an innate-like CD8(+) T-cell population that expresses Eomesodermin. Altogether, these findings identify a novel role for Dok-1 in the regulation of thymic differentiation and in particular, in the development of PLZF(+) γδ T cells.

Abstract
Abstract
Understanding the cellular mechanisms of platelet activation and their pharmacologic modulation is of major interest for basic and clinical research. Here we introduce a comprehensive human platelet repository (PlateletWeb) for systems biologic analysis of platelets in the functional context of integrated networks. Functional, drug, and pathway associations provide a first systemic insight into various aspects of platelet functionality and pharmacologic regulation. Detailed manual curation of recent platelet proteome and transcriptome studies yielded more than 5000 platelet proteins. Integration of protein-protein interactions with kinase-substrate relationships unraveled the platelet signaling network involving more than 70% of all platelet proteins. Analysis of the platelet kinome in the context of the kinase phylogenetic background revealed an over-representation of tyrosine kinase substrates. The extraction and graphical visualization of specific subnetworks allow identification of all major signaling modules involved in activation and inhibition. An in-depth analysis of DOK1 signaling identifies putative signal modulators of the integrin network. Through integration of various information sources and high curation standards, the PlateletWeb knowledge base offers the systems biologic background for the investigation of signal transduction in human platelets (http://plateletweb.bioapps.biozentrum.uni-wuerzburg.de).

Abstract
In attempt to discover novel aberrantly hypermethylated genes with putative tumor suppressor function in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), we applied expression profiling following pharmacologic inhibition of DNA methylation in EOC cell lines. Among the genes identified, one of particular interest was DOK1, or downstream of tyrosine kinase 1, previously recognized as a candidate tumor suppressor gene (TSG) for leukemia and other human malignancies. Using bisulfite sequencing, we determined that a 5'-non-coding DNA region (located at nt -1158 to -850, upstream of the DOK1 translation start codon) was extensively hypermethylated in primary serous EOC tumors compared with normal ovarian specimens; however, this hypermethylation was not associated with DOK1 suppression. On the contrary, DOK1 was found to be strongly overexpressed in serous EOC tumors as compared to normal tissue and importantly, DOK1 overexpression significantly correlated with improved progression-free survival (PFS) values of serous EOC patients. Ectopic modulation of DOK1 expression in EOC cells and consecutive functional analyses pointed toward association of DOK1 expression with increased EOC cell migration and proliferation, and better sensitivity to cisplatin treatment. Gene expression profiling and consecutive network and pathway analyses were also confirmative for DOK1 association with EOC cell migration and proliferation. These analyses were also indicative for DOK1 protective role in EOC tumorigenesis, linked to DOK1-mediated induction of some tumor suppressor factors and its suppression of pro-metastasis genes. Taken together, our findings are suggestive for a possible tumor suppressor role of DOK1 in EOC; however its implication in enhanced EOC cell migration and proliferation restrain us to conclude that DOK1 represents a true TSG in EOC. Further studies are needed to more completely elucidate the functional implications of DOK1 and other members of the DOK gene family in ovarian tumorigenesis.

Abstract
The mammalian Dok protein family has seven members (Dok-1-Dok-7). The Dok proteins share structural similarities characterized by the NH2-terminal pleckstrin homology and phosphotyrosine-binding domains followed by SH2 target motifs in the COOH-terminal moiety, indicating an adapter function. Indeed, Dok-1 was originally identified as a 62 kDa protein that binds with p120 rasGAP, a potent inhibitor of Ras, upon tyrosine phosphorylation by a variety of protein tyrosine kinases. Among the Dok family, only Dok-1, Dok-2, and Dok-3 are preferentially expressed in hematopoietic/immune cells. Dok-1 and its closest relative Dok-2 act as negative regulators of the Ras-Erk pathway downstream of many immunoreceptor-mediated signaling systems, and it is believed that recruitment of p120 rasGAP by Dok-1 and Dok-2 is critical to their negative regulation. By contrast, Dok-3 does not bind with p120 rasGAP. However, accumulating evidence has demonstrated that Dok-3 is a negative regulator of the activation of JNK and mobilization of Ca2+ in B-cell receptor-mediated signaling, where the interaction of Dok-3 with SHIP-1 and Grb2 appears to be important. Here, we review the physiological roles and underlying mechanisms of Dok family proteins.

Abstract
Dok-4 (downstream of tyrosine kinase-4) is a recently identified member of the Dok family of adaptor proteins, which are characterized by an amino-terminal pleckstrin homology domain, a phosphotyrosine-binding domain, and a carboxyl-terminal region containing several tyrosines and poly-proline-rich motifs. Two members of the Dok family, Dok-1 and Dok-2, have already been described as negative regulators in T cells. However, the function of Dok-4, which is also expressed in T cells, remains unknown. In this study, we report that Dok-4 is phosphorylated after TCR engagement and shuttled within the cytoplasm of T cells before being recruited to the polarized microtubule organizing center after the formation of the immunological synapse. Loss-of-function experiments using RNA interference constructs show that Dok-4 is a negative regulator of ERK phosphorylation, IL-2 promoter activity, and T cell proliferation. Exogenous expression of wild-type Dok-4 induces a significant activation of Rap1, which is involved in the regulation of ERK. The pleckstrin homology domain of Dok-4 is required both for its cytoplasmic shuttling and relocalization as well as for its inhibitory properties on T cell activation. Thus, Dok-4 represents a novel negative regulator of T cells.

Abstract
It has been extensively documented that CD45 positively regulates T cell receptor-mediated signaling through the activation of Src-family kinases. The mechanism whereby CD45 negatively regulates the JAK/STAT pathway, however, has not been fully elucidated. Here we describe the mechanism by which CD45 negatively regulates the JAK/STAT pathway through the recruitment of the inhibitory molecule Downstream of Kinase 1 (DOK-1) in hematopoietic cells. We present evidences that CD45 recruits DOK-1 to associate with tyrosine-phosphorylated DOK-1, and that the DOK-1-Y296F mutant completely abrogates its interaction with CD45. Moreover, CD45 expression is required for DOK-1 targeting to the plasma membrane in response to anti-CD3 stimulation. Functional studies further showed that stable expression of DOK-1 in K562 cells markedly decreased both JAK-2 and STAT-3/5 phosphorylation following IL-3 and IFN-alpha stimulation. Likewise, stable expression of DOK-1 in Jurkat cells significantly decreased JAK-2 phosphorylation. Similarly, both IL-3 and IFN-alpha-induced JAK-2 phosphorylations were significantly increased in CD45 deficient Jurkat cells. Consistently, silencing of the DOK-1 gene resulted in rescue of MAP kinases and JAKs activities in CD45 positive Jurkat cells. Accordingly, CD45 recruits adaptor DOK-1 to the proximal plasma membrane to serve as a downstream effector, resulting in negative regulation of the JAK/STAT signaling pathway.

Abstract
Zanolimumab is a human IgG1 antibody against CD4, which is in clinical development for the treatment of cutaneous and nodal T-cell lymphomas. Here, we report on its mechanisms of action. Zanolimumab was found to inhibit CD4+ T cells by combining signaling inhibition with the induction of Fc-dependent effector mechanisms. First, T-cell receptor (TCR) signal transduction is inhibited by zanolimumab through a fast, dual mechanism, which is activated within minutes. Ligation of CD4 by zanolimumab effectively inhibits early TCR signaling events but, interestingly, activates signaling through the CD4-associated tyrosine kinase p56lck. An uncoupling of p56lck from the TCR by anti-CD4 allows the kinase to transmit direct inhibitory signals via the inhibitory adaptor molecules Dok-1 and SHIP-1. Second, CD4+ T cells are killed by induction of antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity, to which CD45RO+ cells are more sensitive than CD45RA+ cells. Finally, zanolimumab induces down-modulation of CD4 from cell surfaces via a slow Fc-dependent mechanism. In conclusion, zanolimumab rapidly inhibits T-cell signaling via a dual mechanism of action combined with potent Fc-dependent lysis of CD4+ T cells and may act long-term by down-regulating CD4.

Abstract
Adaptor proteins positively or negatively regulate the T cell receptor for antigen (TCR) signaling cascade. We report that after TCR stimulation, the inhibitory adaptor downstream of kinase (Dok)-2 and its homologue Dok-1 are involved in a multimolecular complex including the lipid phosphatase Src homology 2 domain–containing inositol polyphosphate 5′-phosphatase (SHIP)-1 and Grb-2 which interacts with the membrane signaling scaffold linker for activation of T cells (LAT). Knockdown of LAT and SHIP-1 expression indicated that SHIP-1 favored recruitment of Dok-2 to LAT. Knockdown of Dok-2 and Dok-1 revealed their negative control on Akt and, unexpectedly, on Zap-70 activation. Our findings support the view that Dok-1 and -2 are critical elements of a LAT-dependent negative feedback loop that attenuates early TCR signal. Dok-1 and -2 may therefore exert a critical role in shaping the immune response and as gatekeepers for T cell tolerance.

Abstract
Dok1 is believed to be a mainly cytoplasmic adaptor protein which down-regulates mitogen-activated protein kinase activation, inhibits cell proliferation and transformation, and promotes cell spreading and cell migration. Here we show that Dok1 shuttles between the nucleus and cytoplasm. Treatment of cells with leptomycin B (LMB), a specific inhibitor of the nuclear export signal (NES)-dependent receptor CRM1, causes nuclear accumulation of Dok1. We have identified a functional NES (348LLKAKLTDPKED359) that plays a major role in the cytoplasmic localization of Dok1. Src-induced tyrosine phosphorylation prevented the LMB-mediated nuclear accumulation of Dok1. Dok1 cytoplasmic localization is also dependent on IKKbeta. Serum starvation or maintaining cells in suspension favor Dok1 nuclear localization, while serum stimulation, exposure to growth factor, or cell adhesion to a substrate induce cytoplasmic localization. Functionally, nuclear NES-mutant Dok1 had impaired ability to inhibit cell proliferation and to promote cell spreading and cell motility. Taken together, our results provide the first evidence that Dok1 transits through the nucleus and is actively exported into the cytoplasm by the CRM1 nuclear export system. Nuclear export modulated by external stimuli and phosphorylation may be a mechanism by which Dok1 is maintained in the cytoplasm and membrane, thus regulating its signaling functions.

Abstract
Aggregation of the type 1 Fc-epsilon receptors (Fc-epsilon-RI) on mast cells initiates a network of biochemical processes culminating in secretion of both granule-stored and de novo-synthesized inflammatory mediators. A strict control of this response is obviously a necessity; nevertheless, this regulation is hardly characterized. Here we report that a prototype inhibitory receptor, the mast cell function-associated antigen (MAFA), selectively regulates the Fc-epsilon-RI stimulus-response coupling network and the subsequent de novo production and secretion of inflammatory mediators. Specifically, MAFA suppresses the PLC-gamma2-[Ca2+]i, Raf-1-Erk1/2, and PKC-p38 coupling pathways, while the Fyn-Gab2-mediated activation of PKB and Jnk is essentially unaffected. Hence, the activities of several transcription/nuclear factors for inflammatory mediators (NF-kappaB, NFAT) are markedly reduced, while those of others (Jun, Fos, Fra, p90rsk) are unaltered. This results in a selective inhibition of gene transcription of cytokines including IL-1beta, IL-4, IL-8, and IL-10, while that of TNF-alpha, MCP-1, IL-3, IL-5, or IL-13 remains unaffected. Taken together, these results illustrate the capacity of an immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif-containing receptor to cause tight and specific control of the production and secretion of inflammatory mediators by mast cells.

Abstract
To date, five members of the downstream of tyrosine kinase (Dok) family have been characterized. In T cells, two members, Dok-1 and Dok-2, are expressed. CD2 or CD28 stimulation, but not CD3/TCR stimulation, induces Dok phosphorylation. Recent evidence suggests that they act as negative regulators of the CD2 and CD28 signaling pathways. To identify the molecular mechanisms involved in Dok-mediated inhibition, we have identified proteins that bind to the phosphotyrosine-binding (PTB) domain of Dok-1 and Dok-2. We showed that the Dok PTB domain mediates phosphotyrosine-dependent homotypic and heterotypic interactions of Dok-1 and Dok-2. Moreover, in CD2-stimulated Jurkat cells, Dok-1 coimmunoprecipitates with tyrosine-phosphorylated Dok-2. To study the involvement of PTB-mediated oligomerization in Dok function, we have generated Jurkat clones overexpressing Dok-1 or Dok-2 with a mutation that prevents oligomerization (in either the PTB domain or Tyr146 of Dok-1 and Tyr139 of Dok-2). These mutations abrogate CD2-induced phosphorylation and the ability of Dok-1 or Dok-2 to inhibit CD2-induced ERK1/2 and NFAT activation. Moreover, overexpression of Dok-1Y146F or Dok-2Y139F interferes with CD2-induced phosphorylation of endogenous Dok, whereas overexpression of PTB mutant or wild-type Dok does not. Taken together, these data indicate that PTB-mediated oligomerization of Dok-1 and Dok-2 represents an essential step for Dok phosphorylation and function.

Abstract
Dok1 is an abundant Ras-GTPase-activating protein-associated tyrosine kinase substrate that negatively regulates cell growth and promotes migration. We now find that IkappaB kinase beta (IKKbeta) associated with and phosphorylated Dok1 in human epithelial cells and B lymphocytes. IKKbeta phosphorylation of Dok1 depended on Dok1 S(439), S(443), S(446), and S(450). Recombinant IKKbeta also phosphorylated Dok1 or Dok1 amino acids 430-481 in vitro. TNF-alpha, IL-1, gamma radiation, or IKKbeta overexpression phosphorylated Dok1 S(443), S(446), and S(450) in vivo, as detected with Dok1 phospho-S site-specific antisera. Moreover, Dok1 with S(439), S(443), S(446), and S(450) mutated to A was not phosphorylated by IKKbeta in vivo. Surprisingly, mutant Dok1 A(439), A(443), A(446), and A(450) differed from wild-type Dok1 in not inhibiting platelet-derived growth factor-induced extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 phosphorylation or cell growth. Mutant Dok1 A(439), A(443), A(446), and A(450) also did not promote cell motility, whereas wild-type Dok1 promoted cell motility, and Dok1 E(439), E(443), E(446), and E(450) further enhanced cell motility. These data indicate that IKKbeta phosphorylates Dok1 S(439)S(443) and S(446)S(450) after TNF-alpha, IL-1, or gamma-radiation and implicate the critical Dok1 serines in Dok1 effects after tyrosine kinase activation.

Abstract
Signaling through the high affinity IgE receptor FcepsilonRI on human basophils and rodent mast cells is decreased by co-aggregating these receptors to the low affinity IgG receptor FcgammaRII. We used a recently described fusion protein, GE2, which is composed of key portions of the human gamma1 and the human epsilon heavy chains, to dissect the mechanisms that lead to human mast cell and basophil inhibition through co-aggregation of FcgammaRII and FcepsilonRI. Unstimulated human mast cells derived from umbilical cord blood express the immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif-containing receptor FcgammaRII but not FcgammaRI or FcgammaRIII. Interaction of the mast cells with GE2 alone did not cause degranulation. Co-aggregating FcepsilonRI and FcgammaRII with GE2 1) significantly inhibited IgE-mediated histamine release, cytokine production, and Ca(2+) mobilization, 2) reduced the antigen-induced morphological changes associated with mast cell degranulation, 3) reduced the tyrosine phosphorylation of several cellular substrates, and 4) increased the tyrosine phosphorylation of the adapter protein downstream of kinase 1 (p62(dok); Dok), growth factor receptor-bound protein 2 (Grb2), and SH2 domain containing inositol 5-phosphatase (SHIP). Tyrosine phosphorylation of Dok was associated with increased binding to Grb2. Surprisingly, in non-stimulated cells, there were complexes of phosphorylated SHIP-Grb2-Dok that were lost upon IgE receptor activation but retained under conditions of Fcepsilon-Fcgamma co-aggregation. Finally, studies using mast cells from Dok-1 knock-out mice showed that IgE alone triggers degranulation supporting an inhibitory role for Dok degranulation. Our results demonstrate how human FcepsilonRI-mediated responses can be inhibited by co-aggregation with FcgammaRIIB and implicate Dok, SHIP, and Grb2 as key intermediates in regulating antigen-induced mediator release.

Abstract
B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL) is a malignant disease characterized by an accumulation of monoclonal CD5+ mature B cells, with a high percentage of cells arrested in the G0/G1 phase of the cell cycle, and a particular resistance toward apoptosis-inducing agents. Dok1 (downstream of tyrosine kinases) is an abundant Ras-GTPase-activating protein (Ras-GAP)-associated tyrosine kinase substrate, which negatively regulates cell proliferation, downregulates MAP kinase activation and promotes cell migration. The gene encoding Dok1 maps to human chromosome 2p13, a region previously found to be rearranged in B-CLL. We have screened the Dok1 gene for mutations from 46 individuals with B-CLL using heteroduplex analysis. A four-nucleotide GGCC deletion in the coding region was found in the leukemia cells from one patient. This mutation causes a frameshift leading to protein truncation at the carboxyl-terminus, with the acquisition of a novel amino-acid sequence. In contrast to the wild-type Dok1 protein, which has cytoplasmic/membrane localization, the mutant Dok1 is a nuclear protein containing a functional bipartite nuclear localization signal. Whereas overexpression of wild-type Dok1 inhibited PDGF-induced MAP kinase activation, this inhibition was not observed with the mutant Dok1. Furthermore the mutant Dok1 forms heterodimers with Dok1 wild type and the association can be enhanced by Lck-mediated tyrosine-phosphorylation. This is the first example of a Dok1 mutation in B-CLL and the data suggest that Dok1 might play a role in leukemogenesis.

Abstract
Dok-3 is a Dok-related adaptor expressed in B cells and macrophages. Previously, we reported that Dok-3 is an inhibitor of B-cell activation in A20 B cells and that it associates with SHIP-1, a 5' inositol-specific lipid phosphatase, as well as Csk, a negative regulator of Src kinases. Here, we demonstrate that Dok-3 suppresses B-cell activation by way of its interaction with SHIP-1, rather than Csk. Our biochemical analyses showed that the Dok-3-SHIP-1 complex acts by selectively inhibiting the B-cell receptor (BCR)-evoked activation of the Jun N-terminal protein kinase (JNK) cascade without affecting overall protein tyrosine phosphorylation or activation of previously described SHIP-1 targets like Btk and Akt/PKB. Studies of B cells derived from SHIP-1-deficient mice showed that BCR-triggered activation of JNK is enhanced in the absence of SHIP-1, implying that the Dok-3-SHIP-1 complex (or a related mechanism) is a physiological negative regulator of the JNK cascade in normal B cells. Together, these data elucidate the mechanism by which Dok-3 inhibits B-cell activation. Furthermore, they provide evidence that SHIP-1 can be a negative regulator of JNK signaling in B cells.

Abstract
Adaptors are modular proteins implicated in the orchestration of intracellular signalling pathways. Studies of adaptors specifically expressed in immune cells have provided clear examples of the importance of adaptor molecules in normal mammalian biology. Moreover, they have led to the identification of naturally occurring mutations in adaptors that can be linked to human diseases. Lastly, they have highlighted the plasticity of protein-protein interaction modules, and have shed light onto the mechanisms dictating the specificity of adaptor-mediated signals.

Abstract
The Dok adaptor family of proteins binding to RasGAP, consisting of Dok-1 and Dok-2, are critical regulators in cell proliferation. These molecules are partners and/or substrates of different protein tyrosine kinases considered as oncoproteins. Here, we show that Dok-1 and Dok-2 are the major tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins associated to Tec, a protein tyrosine kinase expressed in T cells. Furthermore, we evaluate the effect of Dok-1 or Dok-2 on Tec-mediated signalling pathways in T cells. Here, we provide evidence that Dok-1 and Dok-2 proteins are involved in a negative feedback regulation of Tec via a downregulation of its tyrosine phosphorylation and downstream signalling pathways including the Ras pathway. Either Dok-1 or Dok-2 therefore represents a mean of potent retrograde control for protein tyrosine kinase signalling, and then possibly of tumor development.

Abstract
SAP-1 is a transmembrane-type protein-tyrosine phosphatase that is expressed in most tissues but whose physiological functions remain unknown. The cytoplasmic region of SAP-1 has now been shown to bind directly the tyrosine kinase Lck. Overexpression of wild-type SAP-1, but not that of a catalytically inactive mutant of SAP-1, inhibited both the basal and the T cell antigen receptor (TCR)-stimulated activity of Lck in human Jurkat T cell lines. Lck served as a direct substrate for dephosphorylation by SAP-1 in vitro. Overexpression of wild-type SAP-1 in Jurkat cells also: (i) inhibited both the activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase and the increase in cell surface expression of CD69 induced by TCR stimulation; (ii) reduced the extent of the TCR-induced increase in the tyrosine phosphorylation of ZAP-70 or that of LAT; (iii) reduced both the basal level of tyrosine phosphorylation of p62dok, as well as the increase in the phosphorylation of this protein induced by CD2 stimulation; and (iv) inhibited cell migration. These results thus suggest that the direct interaction of SAP-1 with Lck results in inhibition of the kinase activity of the latter and a consequent negative regulation of T cell function.

Abstract
The specificity and the relative affinity of many Ly49 receptors for major histocompatibility complex class I ligands have been studied in detail in various adhesion and binding assays. However, how the level of cell surface expression of a given Ly49 receptor and its ligand affinity influence the strength of the inhibition signal is not well documented. To address this issue, we developed a series of human Jurkat T-cell transfectants expressing the whole range of Ly49A and Ly49C levels found in vivo on natural killer and T cells and evaluated their capacity to alter superantigen-induced NF-AT activation and interleukin-2 production. We show that the strength of the inhibition induced by Ly49A/H-2Dd interaction correlates with Ly49A density up to a certain level after which increasing expression does not further inhibit significantly the T-cell receptor-induced activation. This system also represents a valuable tool for the determination of the relative strength of the inhibitory signals of Ly49 receptors following their interactions with different ligands. Even at high levels of expression there was no evidence that engagement of Ly49A with H-2b class I molecules provided an inhibitory signal. Moreover, we showed that functional inhibitory interactions of Ly49C with H-2b class I molecules were only the result of H-2Kb and that H-2d represent lower affinity ligands for Ly49C than H-2b. Therefore, depending on the relative affinity of Ly49 receptors for their ligands, the modulation of their expression level will be determinant for the functional outcome of activated T cells.

Abstract
EphB6 is the most recently identified member of the Eph receptor tyrosine kinase family. EphB6 is primarily expressed in thymocytes and a subpopulation of T cells, suggesting that it may be involved in regulation of T lymphocyte differentiation and functions. We show here that overexpression of EphB6 in Jurkat T cells and stimulation with the EphB6 ligand, ephrin-B1, results in the selective inhibition of TCR-mediated activation of JNK but not the MAPK pathway. EphB6 appears to suppress the JNK pathway by preventing T cell receptor (TCR)-induced activation of the small GTPase Rac1, a critical event in initiating the JNK cascade. Furthermore, EphB6 blocked anti-CD3-induced secretion of IL-2 and CD25 expression in a ligand-dependent manner. Dominant negative EphB6 suppressed the inhibitory activity of the endogenous receptor and enhanced anti-CD3-induced JNK activation, CD25 expression, and IL-2 secretion, confirming the requirement for EphB6-specific signaling. Activation of the JNK pathway and the establishment of an IL-2/IL-2R autocrine loop have been shown to play a role in the negative selection of CD4(+)CD8(+) self-reacting thymocytes. In agreement, stimulation of murine thymocytes with ephrin-B1 not only blocked anti-CD3-induced CD25 up-regulation and IL-2 production, but also inhibited TCR-mediated apoptosis. Thus, EphB6 may play an important role in regulating thymocyte differentiation and modulating responses of mature T cells.

Abstract
The role of CD2 signaling in cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) development was examined by stimulating mouse T cells with anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody (mAb) in the absence or presence of anti-CD2 mAb or anti-CD48 mAb or both. Induction of nonspecific CTL and interleukin-2 (IL-2) and interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) synthesis were impaired in the absence of CD2-CD48 interactions. Anti-CD2 mAb also inhibited activation-induced expression of the high-affinity IL-2 receptor (IL-2R). In contrast, IFN-gamma receptor (IFNGR) expression was increased in the presence of anti-CD2 mAb. Reduced cytotoxicity by CTL induced in the absence of CD2-CD48 interactions was associated with a diminished ability of CTL to conjugate with target cells and reduced expression of granzyme B and perforin. Anti-CD2 mAb did not affect expression of Fas ligand and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) by anti-CD3-activated T cells. Cytotoxic effector function and granzyme B and perforin expression were rescued when exogenous IL-2 and IFN-gamma were added in combination with anti-CD2 mAb to anti-CD3-activated T cells at initiation of culture. We conclude that CD2-CD48 interactions during T cell activation are critical for the synthesis of sufficient IL-2 and IFN-gamma to drive CD8(+) T cells to differentiate into functional cytotoxic effector cells.

Abstract
Dok proteins are adapter proteins involved in signal transduction. Several intracellular proteins expressed in lymphocytes meet the criteria of membrane-associated adapter proteins such as members of the Dok family. To understand the role and the formation of multiprotein networks involving Dok proteins in T lymphocytes, we search for potential additional members of this family. Here, we describe the two new human dok-related genes DOK4 and DOK5 and present data showing the expression of DOK4 and DOK5 genes in T cells. These genes are the orthologues of mouse Dok4 and Dok5 genes. Based on analysis of phylogenetic trees and exon/intron structure of Dok family members, DOK4 and DOK5 define a subfamily within dok genes distinct from DOK1, DOK2 and DOK3. So, Dok-4 and Dok-5 molecules constitute a new group of adapter proteins in T cells, requiring further functional analysis.

Abstract
Many studies have shown that FcgammaRIIB is a negative regulator of B cell receptor signaling, and even though FcgammaRIIB is expressed through all developmental stages of the B cell lineage, its involvement in pre-B cell receptor (pre-BCR) signaling has not been examined. To investigate FcgammaRIIB function at the pre-B cell stage, we have established pre-BCR positive pre-B cell lines from normal mice and FcgammaRIIB-deficient mice, named PreBR and Fcgamma(-/-)PreBR, respectively. These cell lines are able to differentiate into immature B cells in vitro by removal of IL-7. In PreBR, apoptosis was moderately induced by F(ab')(2) anti-mu Ab, but not by intact anti-mu Ab. Phosphorylation of SH2-containing inositol 5-phosphatase (SHIP) and Dok, which are involved in FcgammaRIIB signaling, was induced by anti-mu cross-linking in PreBR. In contrast, apoptosis was strongly induced by both the F(ab')(2) and intact anti-mu Abs in Fcgamma(-/-)PreBR, and the level of phosphorylation of SHIP or Dok was much lower in Fcgamma(-/-)PreBR than those observed in PreBR. Restoration of FcgammaRIIB to Fcgamma(-/-)PreBR followed by anti-mu cross-linking blocked severe apoptosis, and up-regulated SHIP and Dok phosphorylation. The results demonstrate that FcgammaRIIB negatively regulates pre-BCR-mediated signaling for apoptosis.

Abstract
In addition to engagement of the T cell receptor-CD3 complex, T lymphocytes can be activated by a variety of cell surface molecules including the approximately 50-kDa surface receptor CD2. While the majority of biochemical signaling elements are triggered by either CD2 or TcR-CD3 receptors, a small number of proteins are engaged by only one receptor. Recently, p62(dok) (Dok1), a member of the Dok family of adapter molecules, has been reported to be activated by CD2 and not by CD3 engagement. Here we have examined the role of p62(dok) in CD2-dependent signaling in Jurkat T cells. As previously reported, we find that ligation of the CD2 molecule by mitogenic pairs of anti-CD2 mAbs led to phosphorylation of p62(dok). While CD2-induced p62(dok) tyrosine phosphorylation was independent of both the p36/38 membrane adapter protein linker of activated T cells (LAT) and the ZAP70/Syk family of kinases, it was dependent upon the Src family of kinases including Lck and Fyn. We find further that CD2 engagement induced the association of tyrosine-phosphorylated p62(dok) to Crk-L. The CD2-dependent association of p62(dok) to Crk-L was independent of expression of the ZAP70/Syk family of kinases. Of note, while T cell receptor-CD3 engagement did not induce either p62(dok) phosphorylation or Crk-L association in Jurkat T cells, it did inhibit CD2-dependent p62(dok)-Crk-L complexes; this TcR-CD3-mediated regulation was dependent upon ZAP70 kinase activity. Our data suggest that phosphorylation of p62(dok) and its interaction with other signaling proteins may depend upon integrated signals emanating from the CD2 receptor, utilizing a ZAP70/LAT-independent pathway, and the TcR-CD3 receptor, which is ZAP70/Syk-dependent.

Abstract
To evaluate the importance of Ly49A on TCR-induced cellular events, we established clones of the 1F2 T cell hybridoma expressing either Ly49A or a chimeric version, Ly49A/H, where the Ly49A cytoplasmic domain has been replaced by the Ly49H cytoplasmic domain. Ligation of Ly49A, but not Ly49A/H, with its ligand H-2D(d) or anti-Ly49A mAbs caused a specific inhibition of TCR/CD3-induced IL-2 secretion. Moreover, flow cytometry analysis of hypodiploid DNA and annexin V binding revealed that ligation of Ly49A protected cells from apoptosis induced by anti-CD3 mAbs or Ag. In contrast, ligation of the Ly49A/H chimeric receptor had no antiapoptotic effect. In addition, engagement of Ly49A selectively inhibited TCR-induced Fas ligand expression whereas TCR-induced Fas expression was not significantly affected. Expression of Ly49 inhibitory receptors on T cells may represent an important mechanism for the regulation of T cell survival in vivo by inhibiting TCR-induced apoptosis and IL-2 secretion.
