  • Title: Phosphorylation of transglutaminase 2 by PKA at Ser216 creates 14-3-3 binding sites.
    Author: Mishra S, Murphy LJ.
    Journal: Biochem Biophys Res Commun; 2006 Sep 08; 347(4):1166-70. PubMed ID: 16870138.
    Abstract:
    Transglutaminase 2 (TG2) is a multifunctional ubiquitous enzyme which is present in various cellular compartments and is subject to phosphorylation by PKA. To better understand the relevance of PKA induced phosphorylation of TG2, we performed pull-down assays using phosphorylated biotinylated-TG2(209-223) peptides spanning PKA induced phosphorylation sites as a bait. Subsequent analysis of pull-down protein by SDS-PAGE and LC/MS identified 14-3-3epsilon as the binding partner for TG2 which was further confirmed by immunoblotting with 14-3-3 specific antiserum. In contrast, non-phosphorylated and/or phosphorylation site substituted peptides fail to pull-down 14-3-3. Furthermore, we demonstrate that 14-3-3 co-immunoprecipitated with TG2 antiserum after activation of PKA from mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEF)(TG2+/+) cells but not from MEF(TG2-/-) cells. In summary, we provide convincing evidence that phosphorylation of TG2 by PKA creates binding site(s) for 14-3-3 both in vitro and in vivo.
