Mutational analyses of the interacting domains of Schizosaccharomyces pombe Byr2 with 14-3-3s.

ABSTRACT: The Byr2 kinase of fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe is recruited to the membrane with the assistance of Ras1. Byr2 is also negatively regulated by 14-3-3 proteins encoded by rad24 and rad25. We conducted domain and mutational analysis of Byr2 to determine which region is critical for its binding to 14-3-3 proteins. Rad24 and Rad25 bound to both the Ras interaction domain in the N-terminus and to the C-terminal catalytic domain of Byr2. When amino acid residues S87 and T94 of the Ras-interacting domain of Byr2 were mutated to alanine, Rad24 could no longer bind to Byr2. S402, S566, S650, and S654 mutations in the C-terminal domain of Byr2 also abolished its interaction with Rad24 and Rad25. More than three mutations in the C-terminal domain were required to abolish completely its int
