Spatial cycles mediated by UNC119 solubilisation maintain Src family kinases plasma membrane localisation.

ABSTRACT: The peripheral membrane proto-oncogene Src family protein tyrosine kinases relay growth factor signals to the cytoplasm of mammalian cells. We unravel the spatial cycles of solubilisation, trapping on perinuclear membrane compartments and vesicular transport that counter entropic equilibration to endomembranes for maintaining the enrichment and activity of Src family protein tyrosine kinases at the plasma membrane. The solubilising factor UNC119 sequesters myristoylated Src family protein tyrosine kinases from the cytoplasm, enhancing their diffusion to effectively release Src family protein tyrosine kinases on the recycling endosome by localised Arl2/3 activity. Src is then trapped on the recycling endosome via electrostatic interactions, whereas Fyn is quickly released to be kinetically
