Evidence for the direct involvement of βTrCP in Gli3 protein processing

Abstract

Hedgehog-regulated processing of the transcription factor cubitus interruptus (Ci) in Drosophila depends on phosphorylation of the C-terminal region of Ci by cAMP-dependent protein kinase and subsequently by casein kinase 1 and glycogen synthase kinase 3. Ci processing also requires Slimb, an F-box protein of SCF ( S kp1/ C ullin/ F -box proteins) complex, and the proteasome, but the interplay between phosphorylation and the activity of Slimb and the proteasome remains unclear. Here we show that processing of the Gli3 protein, a homolog of Ci, also depends on phosphorylation of a set of four cAMP-dependent protein kinase sites that primes subsequent phosphorylation of adjacent casein kinase 1 and glycogen synthase kinase 3. Our gain- and loss-of-function analyses in cultured cells further reveal that βTrCP, the vertebrate homolog of Slimb, is required for Gli3 processing, and we demonstrate that βTrCP can bind phosphorylated Gli3 both in vitro and in vivo . We also find that the Gli3 protein is polyubiquitinated in the cell and that its processing depends on proteasome activity. Our findings provide evidence for a direct link between phosphorylation of Gli3/Ci proteins and βTrCP/Slimb action, thus supporting the hypothesis that the processing of Gli3/Ci is affected by the proteasome.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
