Abstrakt: The protein known as PI3K-interacting protein (PIK3IP1), or transmembrane inhibitor of PI3K (TrIP), is highly expressed by T cells and can modulate PI3K activity in these cells. Several studies have also revealed that TrIP is rapidly downregulated following T cell activation. However, it is unclear as to how this downregulation is controlled. Using a novel monoclonal antibody that robustly stains cell-surface TrIP, we demonstrate that TrIP is lost from the surface of activated T cells in a manner dependent on the strength of signaling through the T cell receptor (TCR) and specific downstream signaling pathways, in particular classical PKC isoforms. TrIP expression returns by 24 hours after stimulation, suggesting that it may play a role in resetting TCR signaling at later time points. We also provide evidence that ADAM family proteases are required for both constitutive and stimulation-induced downregulation of TrIP in T cells. Finally, by expressing truncated forms of TrIP in cells, we identify the region in the extracellular stalk domain of TrIP that is targeted for proteolytic cleavage.
