Insights

Odin, a negative regulator of growth factor signaling, interacts with 14-3-3 proteins and other novel partners. This study identifies Odin

Area of Science:

  • Cellular Biology
  • Molecular Biology
  • Signal Transduction

Background:

  • Signal transduction pathways require precise regulation by positive and negative regulators.
  • Odin (ANKRD1A) was previously identified as a negative regulator of growth factor signaling.
  • The precise mechanisms of Odin's regulatory function were not fully understood.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To elucidate the mechanisms by which Odin negatively regulates growth factor signaling.
  • To systematically identify Odin-interacting proteins using a proteomic approach.

Main Methods:

  • Stable Isotope Labeling by Amino acids in Cell culture (SILAC) strategy was employed for proteomic analysis.
  • Co-immunoprecipitation experiments were used to confirm identified interactions.
  • Literature-based network analysis was performed on Odin interacting partners.

Main Results:

  • Eighteen molecules were identified as specifically associated with Odin in a protein complex.
  • The complete family of 14-3-3 proteins was found to complex with Odin.
  • Novel Odin interactors include CD2-associated protein, SH3 domain kinase binding protein 1, and DAB2 interacting protein.
  • Eight of the eighteen identified interactions were confirmed via co-immunoprecipitation.
  • Network analysis indicated Odin partners are involved in diverse cellular processes, including receptor endocytosis.

Conclusions:

  • Odin interacts with a comprehensive set of 14-3-3 proteins and novel partners.
  • These interactions provide mechanistic insights into Odin's role as a negative regulator of growth factor signaling.
  • Odin's interacting partners are implicated in key cellular processes such as receptor endocytosis.

Assembly of Signaling Complexes

Multiprotein signaling complexes are formed in a dynamic process involving protein-protein interactions at the cytoplasmic domain of transmembrane receptors or enzymatic and non-enzymatic proteins associated with the receptor. These complexes ensure the activation and propagation of intracellular signals that regulate cell functions.

Protein-protein Interfaces02:04

Protein-protein Interfaces

Many proteins form complexes to carry out their functions, making protein-protein interactions (PPIs) essential for an organism's survival. Most PPIs are stabilized by numerous weak noncovalent chemical forces. The physical shape of the interfaces determines the way two proteins interact. Many globular proteins have closely-matching shapes on their surfaces, which form a large number of weak bonds. Additionally, many PPIs occur between two helices or between a surface cleft and a polypeptide...
Protein Networks02:26

Protein Networks

An organism can have thousands of different proteins, and these proteins must cooperate to ensure the health of an organism. Proteins bind to other proteins and form complexes to carry out their functions. Many proteins interact with multiple other proteins creating a complex network of protein interactions.
These interactions can be represented through maps depicting protein-protein interaction networks, represented as nodes and edges. Nodes are circles that are representative of a protein,...

Protein Complexes with Interchangeable Parts

Groups of proteins may form a complex where each protein in this complex has a different role in the overall execution of the complex’s function. Often some of the proteins in the complex can be replaced by a closely related variant to give a complex that contains many of the same components yet is functionally distinct.
The SCF ubiquitin ligase is a protein complex of five individual proteins. This complex attaches ubiquitin to other target proteins to mark them for degradation. In order to...
