Abstrakt: | PLEKHG2 is a Gβγ- and Gαs-dependent guanine nucleotide exchange factor for Rac1 and Cdc42 small GTPases and has been shown to mediate signaling pathways such as those for actin cytoskeletal reorganization and serum response element (SRE)-dependent gene transcription. We have shown that the four-and-a-half LIM domains (FHL) 1 acts as a positive regulator of PLEKHG2. Here, we evaluated the other FHL family members and found that the FHL1A specifically regulate the PLEKHG2 activity. Moreover, FHL1A further enhanced Gβγ- and PLEKHG2-induced SRE-dependent gene transcription, whereas FHL1A partially restored the attenuated PLEKHG2-induced SRE-dependent gene transcription by Gαs. Our results suggest that FHL1A specifically interacts with PLEKHG2 to regulate a function of PLEKHG2 that is modified by the interaction of Gβγ and Gαs. |
