Conformation-Dependent Human p52Shc Phosphorylation by Human c-Src.

ABSTRACT: Phosphorylation of the human p52Shc adaptor protein is a key determinant in modulating signaling complex assembly in response to tyrosine kinase signaling cascade activation. The underlying mechanisms that govern p52Shc phosphorylation status are unknown. In this study, p52Shc phosphorylation by human c-Src was investigated using purified proteins to define mechanisms that affect the p52Shc phosphorylation state. We conducted biophysical characterizations of both human p52Shc and human c-Src in solution as well as membrane-mimetic environments using the acidic lipid phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate or a novel amphipathic detergent (2,2-dihexylpropane-1,3-bis-β-D-glucopyranoside). We then identified p52Shc phosphorylation sites under various solution conditions, and the amount of phosphoryl
