Popis: | The hematopoietic cells from patients with Bcr-Abl-positive chronic myelogenous leukemia exhibit multiple abnormalities of cytoskeletal function. The molecular events leading to these abnormalities are not fully understood. Previously we showed that Bcr-Abl elicits ubiquitin-dependent degradation of Abl interactor proteins. Because recent studies have suggested a role of Abl interactor proteins in the pathway that regulates cytoskeletal function, we investigated whether mutations in Bcr-Abl that interfere with the signaling to Abl interactor proteins affect its leukemogenic activity. We report here that the Src homology 3 domain and C-terminal proline-rich sequences of Bcr-Abl are required for its binding to Abl interactor 2 as well as for the induction of Abl interactor 2 degradation. Although the deletion of these regions did not affect the ability of the mutant Bcr-Abl to transform hematopoietic cells to growth factor independence, it abrogated its ability to stimulate spontaneous cell migration on fibronectin-coated surfaces. Furthermore, the mutant Bcr-Abl, defective in binding to Abl interactor 2 and inducing its degradation, failed to induce chronic myelogenous leukemia-like disease in mouse. These results are consistent with a role of Abl interactor proteins in the regulation of cytoskeletal function as well as in the pathogenesis of Bcr-Abl-induced leukemogenesis. |
